I have created a user form that contains check boxes for various fields, and on this form, when the box is checked, I get a prompt that the field cannot be updated. I have several other forms that use these same yes/no fields, and I am not having the same problem on these forms. I checked the property sheet row source for the form and I don't see anything wrong with the select statement (that I know of).
View RepliesI have a data field (status) that is either Graduated, Terminated, or Current. I also have a report that has a check box representing each (such as a check box for graduated and another for Terminated etc).
I am trying to get the report to read the status and check the appropriate box in the report.
I have tried this in the control source of the checkbox
=IIf([status]="terminated";True;False)
but this does not work
I have also tried this on the OnOpen
If [status] = "terminated" then
termcheck = true
else
termcheck = false
end if
end sub
But this does not work either - what am I doing wrong :confused:
Hello Folks.
I can't seem to figure this one out in a continous form. I have checkboxes where I can check them. If I check any of them, I would like to disable another check box. All this works, but what it does is it disables/enables the check box in ALL the rows, instead of just the current row.
I have attached a sample of my setup. Any help/insight would be appreciated.

I have a user input form to enter traffic counts. There is a subform within that form that shows the total. I want to have a check box which, if checked, will multiply the data in the box by two. I have tried building expressions, macros...nothing worked. Dont know what I'm doing wrong. Any idea?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create a medical records inventory. We have physical charts which each have a barcode and I have a scanner. The idea is to have employees who want to check the chart out scan their barcode (on their badge), scan the chart's barcode and leave.
I have a table called tblCharts with the fields: ID (primarykey which is also the chart number), a checkbox, Employee ID, Date, and Time checked out.
I have Employee ID linked to my tblEmployees that simply has a listing of the employee ID's and first and last names.
I don't care about keeping a record of who has had the chart in the past.
I just can't figure out how to tell the checkbox to be checked (to indicate the chart is out) when a number is added to the ID field (via scanner).
So here's how it would go:
Scan the chart's barcode which would populate into the ID field. Search to see if the record with the same number is already existing, if not create a record. IF it does exist, check to see if the checkbox is checked. If it is checked then the chart is being checked back in (so uncheck the box). If it is not checked to begin with (still in), then check it out and associate the employee's scanned barcode with it.
I have kept the names as simple as I can for the example sake to which I can substitute my names in after.
I have a split form - form1, I have a check box on this form - checkbox1 - That I would like to use to make only the checked results from the table - table1 - show and if it is not checked to show all the results. How would I go about doing this? The table field is called field1.
I have created tables to capture information from a form (see attachment for relationship diagram).
I have created a form with a subform based directly on the tables. Entering data in the main form works fine but when I try to add a record on the subform I receive the error: "Field cannot be updated". Clearly I have made a mistake creating the table relationships.
I have a form based on a mysql table. There is a button in the footer to add a new record.
The pertinent vba code: DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec
It adds the new record and properly places the cursor in the first field. Immediately after the first letter is typed, the error message "Field cannot be updated" pops up. I can click ok and the message goes away and I am able to continue filling in the fields. The same thing happens if I add the record by use of the record selectors.
I have an Access 2007 database. I have added in a LastUpdated field into my form, which will update when the record is altered. After searching around I was able to find this VBA:
Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
Me![LastUpdated].Value = Now()
End Sub
This VBA works, however my problem is that when I try and switch records, using a combo box (which I made from the combo box wizard selecting the "Find a record on my form based on the value I selected in my combo box") I get Run-Time error 2448.
I have a form and a subform based off a query, I am trying to run a SQL update statement from one of the fields in my subform. I know what fields in my table i want to update but the Where part of the statement is what i am having a issue with.
DoCmd.RunSQL "UPDATE [Daily Work] SET [Daily Work].QC_Start_Date = Date(),
[Daily Work].QC_Start_Time = Time() WHERE ((([Daily Work].CUS)=[Forms]![QC_Queue_Qry Subform]![CUS])
AND (([Daily Work].LN)=[Forms]![QC_Queue_Qry Subform]![LN]) AND (([Daily Work].Note_Date)=[Forms]!
[QC_Queue_Qry subform]![Note_Date])))"
What this is trying to do is once the the field is updated i want to set the date and time of that record in my table, basically I am trying to time stamp the record when the field in my subform in updated.
I have a database which I've creating but now want to make others available to update - in the past this has not gone well! The database uses data from two excel sheets and the problem has been people do not always check if these have been updated today before running and therefore the database gets loaded with old data.I have found code that will check and display a message showing datelastmodified for a file but what i'm trying to find is code which will check both files' datelast modified, if they are modified today then run the update macro, if one or both are not modified today, then to display a message saying that the excel is not updated.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a form that has a check box. If the box is checked then I would like the next field to be available for data entry, however, if the box is unchecked, then I wish for the next field to be grayed out and not available for data. I suspect that it is a simple bit of VBA, but I am not fluent in VBA and need help everytime, I find something new. Thanks for all your help.

I have a query that simply pulls back each tenant from a tenant table. Each row has a bit field that I use for check box's. This check box is true or false depending on the balance they owe. I currently use it to print off late reports and people that have this field set to true have a check box that auto populates on my datasheet.
I copied the query but I want to change it a little. I want to be able to show all tenants, but I want the bit field to show on my datasheet defaulted to checked for everyone (even if the table shows false) so that I can print all tenants without having to check the fields that are false in my table.
I tried to create an expression instead of using the bit field, but I no longer have the option to make that column into a "Check Box" under Lookup-Display Control.
I'm fairly new to using Access for any serious purposes. I'm trying to replicate some database functionality I setup in Salesforce and just trying to clear few core concepts in Access.
I'm messing around in the Contact Management template and I'm wondering how I can make it so when so when a yes/no checkbox field (called "Active") is ticked a date/time field (called "Last Date") is automatically set to today's date + 60 days.
In Salesforce I would create a Workflow Action triggered by an if Active = true statement, with a Field Update something like TODAY() + 60.
I can tell I need to create an After Insert/After Update Data Macro but can't quite figure out what to put in.
Hi,
I was wondering how to delete records that have been checked (through a checkbox) in a form...
Also, I want to add a record after the record that has been checked. I only want this ability to add records available if only one record is checked. Otherwise, if more than one record is checked, the "Add Record" button would be disabled.
Any help would be much appreciated.
TIA.
My tab name is SPA and it is the third tab in my form. I want to hide it if the AddToSPA checkbox is checked. This is what I have but I'm getting error 'Compile error: Method or data member not found"
Code:
Private Sub Form_Load()
If Me.AddToSPA = True Then
Me.SPA.Pages(2).Visible = True
Else
Me.SPA.Pages(2).Visible = False
End If
End Sub
MS ACCESS 2010,i need to create macro, on insert. which will send mail if is selscted specificed value in combo multivalued list.but, i cant access to that field to test it.
i have tried:
([USERS].[TYPE].[Value])1 = "admin"
([USERS].[TYPE].[Value])1 = 1
[USERS].[TYPE].Value(1) = "admin"
[USERS].[TYPE].[Value]1
[USERS].[TYPE].Column(1) = 1
[USERS].[TYPE].selected(1)
[USERS].[TYPE].[admin]= true
..........
..........
..
-i have tried bound Column = 0, 1....
- tried with selected atribute..
and many variations on that theme, but i cant get to that value to test it?
I am trying to write an IF statement as a macro on the OnClick property of a checkbox and can't get it to work. Basically, if the checkbox is checked (for Yes) I want it to open another form. (The checkbox is a field on a subform on a form).
I haven't even gotten this far yet, but I would also like the IF statement to include an AND somehow....in other words I want the IF statement to basically say if the box is checked for yes AND the offer status field ="Accepted", then open another form. If either is False, then I don't want it to do anything except display a message box saying they can't initiate a contract is both conditions aren't true.
In creating a form with checkboxes created using the "option group" control type,
I am trying to find a way to clear all the checkbox options in an option group after having checked an option. For instance, if the user checks one of the options but then decides they actually want to skip that question altogether and leave it blank - is there a way to clear all options, or reset the question?
I have set up a database to record several different sets of records for a volunteer group that I run. The types of records that I am keeping are hours on duty, uniform issued and attendance at training. The attendance form is a subform which contains a list of dates and the two fields of checkboxes showing if they attended or sent their aplogises.
What I am trying to do is to count the number of times that members attended training. I have set up a 'unbounded' text box in the footer and would just like to add a formula in to the command box of the box properties. Anything more i.e. coding then it goes over my head very quickly.
I have a text box on a form, currently it performs a dlookup for me. I want to change it so that it only performs the Dlookup if a checkbox is checked, but otherwise will display the text that's in an unbound text box.
Not 100% this is even possible, but hoping so. So far I have in the textbook:
=IIf([CHECKBOX]=0,DLookUp("TABLE","FIELD","ID = " & [Text57] & ""),[TEXTBOX])
The dlookup works fine by itself, it's just making it conditional that's causing me problems. I know it could just be a small problem with the way I've written it, or it could be a bigger thing with me not understanding the way IIF works.
I have a checkbox that when checked returns all of the yes values for the column but I want it so that when it isn't checked, it doesnt search for this criteria at all, is there a way of doing this? I tried option buttons too but I wasn't sure of how to go about it.
View 13 Replies View RelatedI have a few bit fields that, when checked, specific text need to be displayed in a field separated by commas.
Example:
Child 1 = checked
Child 2 = not checked
Child 3 = checked
Child 4 = not checked
Output:
Child 1, Child 3
I did find this sample expression that I am using in another area and it is working perfect and I understand it works based off of string length.
Mid(IIf(Len(Expr1), ", " & Expr1, "") & IIf(Len(Expr2), ", " & Expr2, "") & IIf(Len(Expr3), ", " & Expr3, ""),Len(", ") + 1)
What is the best way to accomplish this?
I have a form with a number of fields and sections which change visibility based on the data entered in other fields,
The fields have an "on update" event to check the content of the field and make the appropriate changes,
I've changed this form to be able to edit records instead of "Data Entry" so now I need the checks to occur when the record changes as well as when data is entered,
How best can I achieve this without simply duplicating the code (which seems like a bad idea) into the "On Current" event?
I have a simple database that I put my execptions in for the day for scanning. Is there a way that my serial field on my forum can check to see if someone already scanned that serial for that day using the "On Lost Focus" event.
