Getting Checkbox To Update Visually

Jun 28, 2006

i have a checkbox that i change the value of in my code by saying checkbox.value = true. the value changes but doesn't update visually until the mouse passes over the box. i have 5 boxes and 3 of them are fine, but two of them act this way. all the code is the same. i tried moving the checkbox. value = true statement to different line, tried adding a function that would be called to perform this action, and i tried DoEvents before changing the checkbox value. why is this happening and what can i do to fix it?

Forms :: Form Not Visually Loading Properly

Jul 10, 2015

I have a pop-up modal form which is loaded (like 99% of my other forms) by a button on another form.

Unlike all of my other forms, however, it doesn't load its background properly. If I drag the window off screen and back or shrink and resize, it does look right, so I guess maybe it requires a refresh?Obviously, I don't want to rebuild the form from scratch, so maybe some vba which refreshes the screen?

Checkbox Update Query

May 24, 2005

I have a Mainform with a subform linked to a table.
Within the subform i have a number of individual checkboxes and a field [Year].
One checkbox, [checkboxIssue] i have wanted to link two update queries in order
to update the field[Year] with the contents of a [textboxValue] on the Mainform,
depending on the state of [checkboxIssue].
I have run both queries manually, one after the other and the table was updated perfectly.

The problem is that when i link it to the click_Event of [checkboxIssue]
in the subform i get zero updates.

Linked to the Dirty_Event of the subform i get good results for all except the last ammended
record and zero results if ammending only one record.

I am a relative Newbie and have learned a great deal from this forums expertise.
Can anyone enlighten me to what i think will be my very basic error.

Basic or not i have driven myself mad trying to solve it..:-(

Update Records Via Checkbox

Feb 12, 2007

Dear all:

I have an access database with about 200 records. Names, ID's, addresses, a checkbox called "apply_to_all" and a date field which is selected via a combobox.This combo box is called "date_started", and a textbox called "prefix". This textbox has a default value of "Given on".

What I am trying to accomplish is: A date is selected from the combobox, then a checkbox("apply_date_to_all") is checked and this date is applied to ALL records in the database along with the default value that is in the prefix textbox. (Concantenattion?)

I assume this can be accomplished by some soft of sql statement?

An help is greatly appreciated.

thanking in advance,

Dion

Update Checkbox Value With IF Statement

Aug 5, 2014

What is the correct way to update the checkbox value in a table with an IF statement?

Desired Result:

Check if UserID is not 'ME'
If it is not 'ME' then uncheck the box in the table.

My current faulty code below:

NoUser = DLookup("[UserID]", "[TABLE]") If NoUser <> "ME" Then
[AllowLogin] = 0
End If

Keystroke For Checkbox And Update Calculation

May 25, 2005

I'm attempting to create a form that has a checkbox in addition to some numeric entry fields. The checkbox is True/False and it is a tab stop on the form.

1. Is there a keystroke that can change from True to False (check/uncheck), or is a mouse click required? This form will be used extensively to update some records and a keystroke would be handy instead of having to move from the keyboard to click a mouse button.

2. After update, if the checkbox is True, then a numeric adjustment must be made to a calculated value. If False, then do nothing. Does a checkbox have a numeric value that can be used in an equation? Name of the checkbox is "Option".

These seem fundamental needs, but not obvious to me from using Access Help.

Later on in the same evening . . .

Oh, never mind. Of course "Space Bar" toggles checkboxes. And I discovered by just writing the equation that True = -1 and False = 0. So the name "Option" can be used in an equation just like any other number. Too obvious.

Forms :: Update Table With Unbound Checkbox

Oct 17, 2014

How do you update table with unbound checkbox? I'd like to add basic yes/no, true/false on update. Currently I'm using a workaround like this

Code:
If Me.chkInkt = True Then
status = "true"
Else
status = "false"
End If

Which is ok if there's one of these, but sometimes I have more...

Modules & VBA :: Current Checkbox Label Update

May 25, 2014

I have the following module which displays the backcolor of a checkbox label if it is true or false

Private Sub FormatLabel(chk As Control)
With chk.Controls(0)
If chk Then
.BackColor = vbYellow
.BackStyle = 1
.ForeColor = vbRed

[Code] .....

Which works great! But I cannot figure out how to make it work in the control AfterUpdate Event. I tried using it in the current control's (checkbox) after update event

Dim itm As Control
If itm.ControlType = 106 Then FormatLabel itm

but nothing happens (no change, no error message).

I have tried creating a new module:

Public Sub CheckBoxFormat(chk As Control)
If chk = -1 Then
chk.BackColor = vbYellow
chk.BackStyle = 1
chk.ForeColor = vbRed
Else
chk.BackColor = vbWhite
chk.ForeColor = vbBlack
End If
End Sub

But when I try to call it in the AfterUpdate event for the particular checkbox

Private Sub CheckBoxA_AfterUpdate()
Dim itm As Control
If itm.ControlType = 106 Then
CheckBoxFormat itm
End Sub

I get the error message "Expected Variable or Procedure not module"

So, (1) is my module all wrong or (2) am I calling it incorrectly or (3) wrong on both items?

Sync CheckBox To Update/Write To Text Field

Jul 14, 2006

Hey Guys,

I'm looking to create a "Same As Billing Address" check box that would automatically udpate the address in an order to reflect the customer's billing address.

I understand how to sync a combo box to an option group ( -- great article by the way)

I Guess what I'm looking to do is:

1. Sync a "Same As" Checkbox to multiple text boxes in the form (Unit, StreetAddress, City, Province, Postal) such that these fields are UPDATED (writen to) with the same information as the billing address

2. [U]IF the "Same As" Option is selected, I need the updated fields to lock, allowing no further update... but must by unlocked if the "Same As" option is NOT selected.


Please help me out with this one guys.. I really need it.

Modules & VBA :: Subform Checkbox Used As Condition To Update Records

Aug 26, 2013

My subform consists of a list of tasks that are waiting to be verified. in order to verify tasks, the user scrolls through the list of tasks and checks a checkbox (discrepancyverified) on each record they wish to verify. After the user has finished checking all the records they wish to verify, they click a verify button on the main form which should then go back through each record and update the verifieddate value of any that are checked to today.

This is what I have so far:

Code:

Private Sub Command19_Click()
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim ctl As Control
Dim varItem As Variant

General :: Group By Query And Adding Checkbox Fields To Update A Table

Oct 24, 2014

I have a invoice system I have created in Access and it did used to work perfectly and then maybe an update Who knows stopped the system working.

I have an customer order screen that has customer details and then a subform within the same form this takes a total of items & costs for this order and then it entered it into the customers table from the order_Details table using me.Order_total = Order_Total.

I know this is bad design but I store it because once the order is places I need the total to be static because the invoice has been sent and so if someone changes the order then the total owed doesn't change.

I then have a reconcile form which is on a datasheet form straight from the tab;e so it is editable which has a checkbox that then once ticked copies the total from the Order_Total in the table to the reconciled field in the same table and then I use a report to show who owes me still.

So I have made a Select query from the Orders table & Order_Details table and used a Group by Order number (Which is the link between the 2 tables) this shows correctly but now not editable because of the rules So I am trying to add an editable checkbox on the same form.

I tried to use a dlookup makes all of the boxes either ticked or not. I've been looking at Recordsets but I'm unsure if this is what I need or not really

So really I just need to see if I should be putting the Total from the Subform into the mainform and then entering it into the table (Like previously) using a calculated unbound field and then using the Afterupdate event to insert the data into the table. but for some reason it just wont work.

I can get the OnClick to work but then as soon as i go to the next record for some reason it then resorts to 0.00 but then the table shows correctly which ever record the form is working on.

Or should I be using the new query based idea to create the reconcile form and if this is the best way I just don't now where to start on how to get a multiple table query that I can then add a reconciled checkbox which then copies the Order_Total from the table to the Paymet_Recieved field.

Help With QBF And Checkbox

Mar 31, 2006

Hello all,

How do I write a QBF query such that when a check box on the form is clicked, the name of query runs based on the name of that checkbox.
I have a form called, QBF_Form, which has a series of checkboxes. Each checkbox has a name. I have a table, "Type", and I would like to run a query based on the information on the form, ie. when I click a check box, the query gets the name of the check box and runs the information based on that.I know the basic qbf is:

[Type] Like [Forms]![QBF_Form]![Type] & "*" Or [Forms]![QBF_Form]![Type] Is Null

But I don't know how this would work if I have a check box for values in field "Type" in my table.

Thanks for your help!

Checkbox Not Working

Nov 28, 2005

I installed Microsoft Office 2003 on my computer. It asks me to register the product otherwise not all functions will work properly. I was curious so I didn't register it and started an Ms Access Application. Interestingly, when I clicked on a checkbox in a form , nothing happened.
After registering the product and going back in to the mdb the checkbox worked just fine.
Any one ever seen this before or know what causes that?

Thanks

Value A &gt; Value B, Checkbox Problems

Mar 20, 2007

I have a standard Select query with various fields, three of which are:

- Quantity Ordered (number)

Basically I want the check box to be checked if the qty ordered value is greater than the qty delivered.

I have this code in the criteria of the Short Delivery Field and it does not work

IIf([1A-Quantity Ordered]>[1B-Quantity Received],1,0)

Can anyone give me any pointers, also should I be using an Append or Update query?
