Forms :: Right Click Listbox To Copy Selected Items To Temp Table
Mar 7, 2013
I'm trying to create a right-click event on a listbox that will copy selected listbox item(s) to a temp table. So far, I've got this code to acknowledge the right click:
Code:
Private Sub List0_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single,
Y As Single)
If Button = acRightButton Then
MsgBox "You pressed the right button."
End If
End Sub
Problem is the selected item on the list box doesn't move until after the mouse down event so whatever code I would run would involve the wrong record(s).
I'm using Access 2000 and 2003. How to get the the correct record selected on mouse down, or point me to a working example of right-click functionality on a listbox.
I'm creating an employee audit database, and, in the audit form, the user (ie. supervisor) can select a number of items from a listbox. Each item selected corresponds to an error that the employee has made, and, as such, the employee's Audit Score has two points deducted for each item that is selected.
Incidentally, there are other, solitary elements to the form, but this particular listbox houses a collection of items that are related under a single category.
The score is displayed at the bottom of the form, and it needs to update in real-time.
The problems that I am encountering are that I am unable to count the number of items selected and then I am unable to multiply that count by 2 (the point-value of each item on the list.)
As my title states, that is my problem! I'm building search criteria from a form and have multiple list boxes... I want to be able to determine whether or not a list box has items selected or not. I have tried as many things as i knew how to with no luck...
Also, i searched the forum but could not find what i was looking for -_-
Hi all, greate site and i have been able to solve most problems by using the search box although this problem is doing my head in...!!
I have a db that records project numbers and their details. I am using a listbox to allow a user to multiselect Project Involvements Tasks(ie Documentation, Build etc) against a project number.
I am able to read the selections into a separtate table with two columns which is structured as:
as you can see I dont have a problem getting the Itemsselected into a table... the problem that i am having is getting them out again when the record is displayed - ie marking them as itemsselected.
I believe that the event would be onCurrent which would loop through this table pick up the project number and recorded invovements and mark them as selected in the listbox. if there is no invovement then the listbox would show no selections.
I am using this code to read the selections in
=========================== 'Records project involvements against project Public Function AddInvolvements(ctlRef As ListBox) As String On Error GoTo Err_AddInvolvements_Click
Dim i As Variant Dim dbs As DAO.Database Dim rs As DAO.Recordset Dim qd As DAO.QueryDef Dim strDelete As String
Set dbs = CurrentDb Set qd = dbs.QueryDefs!qInvolvement Set rs = qd.OpenRecordset
'Delete records where project number exists against an invovelment incase of involvement changes strDelete = "Delete Project_Involvement.ProjectNo " & _ "FROM Project_Involvement " & _ "WHERE (((Project_Involvement.ProjectNo)=[Forms]![Add_Project_Details]![ProjectNo]));"
For Each i In ctlRef.ItemsSelected rs.AddNew rs!InvolvementType = ctlRef.ItemData(i) rs!ProjectNo = Me.ProjectNo.Value rs.Update Next i Set rs = Nothing Set qd = Nothing
Exit_AddInvolvements_Click: Exit Function
Err_AddInvolvements_Click: Select Case Err.Number Case 3022 'ignore duplicate keys Resume Next Case Else MsgBox Err.Number & "-" & Err.Description Resume Exit_AddInvolvements_Click End Select
End Function ===================================
Any help would be much appreciated - also thanks to Pat Hartman for his excellent examples esp http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=54924
i have a form that there is a list box inside that. after selection of items (usually 20 items) and right click the mouse on items it should open another pop up form,the problem is after right click selected items will be unselected except one item that there is mouse on that. how can i prevent list box from deselecting items after right click .
the code for mouse right click is like below:
Private Sub ItemList_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, x As Single, y As Single) Const RIGHTBUTTON = 2 Dim udtPos As POINTAPI Dim frm As Access.Form If Button = RIGHTBUTTON Then Set mp = New [*clsMousePosition] GetCursorPos udtPos DoCmd.OpenForm "frmshortcut" DoCmd.MoveSize udtPos.x * mp.TwipsPerPixelX, udtPos.y * mp.TwipsPerPixelY Forms!frmshortcut!txtparameter = Me.ItemList.Value End If End Sub
How would I create a relationship between a subform and a coverage field such that when i multi select items in the subform, it will show what items are selected in the coverage field as in the example.
I am attempting to automate the import of a .csv file from a given directory and copy and append it to another table in a different layout. Below is my code. The error that i'm getting is it can't fine the copyobject in the database...
Option Compare Database Option Explicit Function DoImportandAppend() Dim strPathFile As String Dim strFile As String Dim strPath As String
I am attempting to insert a record with selected data into a temp table and I am getting "Run-time error '3075': Syntax error in (comma)...". Here is the code:
Code: Private Sub XferDataToTempTable() Dim db As Database Dim strSQL As String Set db = CurrentDb
I'm trying to copy the structure of a table to make a temp table. I'm using CopyObject (which also copies the data). So when I delete the data from the temp table, it also deletes data from the source table. Is the data linked? It should just be deleted from the temp table. Below is the beginning of the code. I've stepped through, and at the last step shown, the data in the source table deletes.
Code: Dim strFile As String Dim temp As String Dim tbl As String Dim db As DAO.Database
I have 2 Listboxes the first list is based on a query I need to select items from this box or part of each item and move to another listbox. the items in the second listbox will be used in a report. I have previously posted on another forum with no real luck fyi. the query is put straight in the RowSource.
Can some one tell me why, on the attached database example, I can select multiple items from list boxes "TipoCliente" and "FaixaEt" through "frmClientes" form but they are not passed forward to table "tblClientes" ?
Try to onpen attached database example and use form "fmrClientes" and select multiple items at "TipoCliente" and "FaixaEt" list boxes by entering them with mouse click and Ctrl key pressed . Select also single item from "NivEns" Combobox and write anything on "Nome" and "Apelido" fields .
Go to the table "tblClientes" and you can see text fields "Nome" and "Apelido" and also the item "NivEns" from Combobox "NivEns" are all there but not the items you selected from "TipoCliente" and "FaixaEt" list boxes .
I have a combo box that inserts data into an unbound list box and table. This works great but I am having trouble with the deletion part. I want to be able to dbl click on the item in the item list and delete it from both the list box and table. Currently, my code is deleting ALL items, not just the one item I want to get rid of. Any ideas would be most appreciated :) This is what I have for the deletion code:
Private Sub List92_DblClick(Cancel As Integer) DoCmd.SetWarnings False sql2 = "delete from PROFILE_Industry where " sql2 = sql2 & "profile_id = " & Me!Profile_ID sql2 = sql2 & " And Industry_focus = '" & Me!List92.Value & "';" DoCmd.RunSQL (sql2) Me.Refresh DoCmd.SetWarnings True End Sub
I have a form with a listbox in which users should be able to move the items up and down. The listbox has 4 columns and multiple selection is enabled.
For a NON multiselect box I have it working, and also for a multiple selection box but in that case it works only for one row at a time.
For a NON multiselect listbox:
Code: cmdDown_Click() Dim i As Integer Dim t1 As String, t2 As String, t3 As String, t4 As String i = selectie.ListIndex t1 = Nz(selectie.Column(0, i)) t2 = Nz(selectie.Column(1, i))
[Code] ....
You can select an item and then press "Down" as many times as you want to put the items as "down" in the list as you want it to be.
Multiselect listbox
This code also works for a multipleselection listbox when one item is selected, however, after you press "down" the item is still selected (highlighted) as the code reselects is (last line) BUT the value of selectie.listindex apparently is set to "-1".
Pressing "Down" again generates an error (i = -1). I can evade the error by adding "if selectie.listindex <=0 then exit sub", but that doens't fix the problem that the only way I can manage to reset the listindex to the new "position" of the item is to click on it again and THEN press "Down".
To fix this and be able to press "down" multiple times listindex should be set to the new value.
Adding a "me.selectie.listindex = i -1" doens't work (error), it seems like this value is readonly.
I can't find a way to "simulate" a mousepressed selection and really set the listindex.
The other problem is of course that this code doens't support moving multiple items at once: listindex points to the last selected item, but only one.
So, I tried another piece of code to move multiple items, not using listindex (since that resets to -1), but I run into another problem
Code: Private Sub cmdDown_Click() Dim var As Variant Dim i As Integer Dim n As Integer Dim t1 As String, t2 As String, t3 As String, t4 As String n = Me.selectie.ItemsSelected.Count
[Code] ....
The problem with this is: I can select multiple items and press "Down", but the problem now is that the selection is lost as soon as the code removes the first item, and the 2nd loop skips the if selected(i) = true (nothing is selected anymore). The me.selectie.selected(i+1) = true doens't work since that would only reselect the first item after moving it.
The code "forgets" which items were selected and moves only one item...So I guess I need to put the indexnumbers in memory while moving the items.
I have been searching a lot, but can only find VB-solutions. In VB it's a lot simpeler using f.e. the .list property of a listbox, which is not available in MSAccess
The solution I'm thinking about is:
- set an array with the numbers of selected items - put indexnumbers of the selected items in the array (f.e. 3 and 4) - move items based on the indexnumers in the array - when moving an item update the indexnumber in the array (3>4, 4>5) - after moving all items reset the selection based on the array
It occurred to me then if I'm going to use an array anyway, I might as well load all items in an array, do the "resorting" and the reload the items in the list from the array. Might be more straightforward?
Btw...It seems VB has a simple solution to moving items: listbox.list(i) = listbox.list(i+1) or something like that moves an item. Even Excel seems to have this property but not MS Access!
I have a form with a textbox, listbox and a button.
my textbox is based on one of my tables, and when I enter a value (which is saved in my table) in my textbox and press enter, certain values in my table goes to my listbox, and my listbox will just additem whenever I do same thing in my textbox all overagain.
how can I subtract listbox.column(1) items in my table field "Item_Quantity" where my Listbox.column(0) is equal to my table field "Item_Description".
My Listbox column count property = 4 Row source type = value list
Dim i As Integer, c As String With Me.ListBox.Column(0) For i = 0 To Me.ListBox.ListCount - 1 c = c & Me.ListBox.ItemData(i) & ", " Next End With c = Left(c, Len(c) - 2)
This works great!! Now I am trying to concatenate the column 3 of the listbox.
Tried to use the code below (pointing to the second column) but it always returns the first column data.
'Dim i As Integer, d As String With Me.ListBox.Column(2) For i = 0 To Me.ListBox.ListCount - 1 d = d & Me.ListBox.ItemData(i) & ", " Next End With d = Left(d, Len(d) - 2)
ItemData does not allow pointing to my 3 column of the listbox.
I'm creating a Form called Pharmacy where I can select a [Diagnosis] from a combo box in the form. This combo box source references a table called tblDiagnosis where each Diagnosis also has a multi-valued field called [Indications].
The Pharmacy form also has a multi-select listbox with all possible Indications. I would like to write a VBA code such that when a Diagnosis is selected, the Indications for that Diagnosis are automatically selected/highlighted in the listbox on the form as well.
As such, by selecting a Diagnosis, all the indications attached to that Diagnosis will automatically be selected; however, if additional indications are needed, they can still be selected afterward.
I know that there is a function Me!Listbox.Selected(i) = True, where i is the row of the entry in the listbox. However, the i in the listbox does not correspond to the ID of the Indication. I think that if there is a way to select listbox items by name, that would be much more efficient.
The reason I have a listbox, is because this listbox of Indications then references another table called tblDrugs where all drugs that are approved for the selected indications selected are filtered and displayed.
I have an unbound listbox with 3 columns. Call it PeopleBx. How can I address the item in the first row and first column. How can I address the first column in the selected row and how can I address the item in row 3 and column 2. I tried with
I have a listbox and whenever I clicked on a row it will highlight black background and white font color. How can I disable this or change the formatting?
I'm using a sub form to display data form a table. The users wanted it display like a spread sheet. In order to get all the data to display on the same page I am trying to break some of the longer feilds out (i.e. comment field) and display them in a list/text box and not in the table with the smaller fields.
Basically what will happen is when a record is selected in the sub form the comment field tied to each record will be displayed below. I've tried a few things but I keep getting errors displayed in my list/text box (#Name?)
I'm in desperate need of a (simple I guess) code to allow me to send records from my listbox to a new form. Scenario goes as follows:
I use cascading combo boxes to narrow my available choices and finally end up with a listbox presenting the records filtered through cascading process. Now, I want to double-click on a record and load a new form with all this record's fields.
This is the code used to populate the listbox:
Private Sub FilterTypeList() Dim strRS As String ' Filter the list box appropriately based on the combo box selection(s) strRS = "SELECT qryTaxonomy.Type, qryTaxonomy.Article FROM qryTaxonomy"
[Code] ....
What is the code to open a form with the double-clicked record's fields, as described above?
I would like to select a record on an already open form called "form_candidates" using a search facility but can't get it to work.
In "form_candidates" the data settings are set to "yes" (filters/edits/deletions/additions) and data entry is set to "no". On opening, the form is set to go to a new record.
In this form I have a button that opens a record search form so both forms are now open. I enter the first few letters of the surname into a text box, press a button and the listbox is populated.
In the doubleclick event of the list box I have the following code:
Dim CandID As Integer CandID = Me.List4.Column(0) DoCmd.OpenForm "form_candidates", acNormal, , "forms![form_candidates]![Cand_ID]=" & CandID
So I double click on the record, the candidate form is being filtered but the record isn't being shown.
I have a multi select listbox that I rebuild as I index thru some products in another listbox. This listbox then gives me the ingredients I can use. Works well, but the ghost selections in the listbox stay hilighted even after the rebuild.
I can select and de-select at will if there are actual items in the list box, but the ghosts remain.
Here is the code to clear the listbox
Dim _ ctlSource As Control, _ varSelected As Variant, _ intListCount As Integer Set ctlSource = Forms.frm_select_UPC_LoinGrade!lstBox_ColdStorage For intListCount = 0 To ctlSource.ListCount ctlSource.Selected(intListCount) = False Next intListCount Forms.frm_select_UPC_LoinGrade.Refresh Forms.frm_select_UPC_LoinGrade.Repaint
I've designed access form with one listbox and added 'up' and 'down' buttons to move up and down the selected item in the listbox. i.e from its selected position to one item up when 'up' button clicked and same as one item down when down button is clicked. Any VBA code will do this functionality?
The user can select multiple items (non-sequential) on the listbox, say items 1 and 35313. I'd like the listbox to scroll (meaning display) to the currrently selected item, so that the user can see it while being processed.
I've seen stuff about property ListIndex, which does exactly that, but it's only useful when you have just ONE item selected (in a multiselect listbox apparently it deselects the rest of the items, so no point in using it, I guess, unless there's more to it!!).
So the key here is how to do the scrolling/display.
The code to loop through the listbox and process each selected item is attached:
Code: Dim vItem As Variant Dim Content as String For Each vItem In Me.lst.ItemsSelected 'scroll to selected item ??? 'processing of the selected item Content = Me.lst.Column(1, vItem) 'copy the content to do sth with it Me.lst.Selected(vItem) = False 'unselect the current item Next vItem 'go to next selected item
how to scroll to the currently selected item? Mind that I need to go through the list of selected items to process them for further use (i.e, I need them selected).
