Hi, in need of some help I'm at my wits end!!
I'm getting "Invalid procedure call or argument" pop up whenever my database uses any of the code. Any form that uses code in the Form_Open section now won't open etc.
This now effects all my forms, i'm 99% sure that i haven't changed anything and have no idea why its happening.
It doesn't seem to matter whether its clicking a button or opening a form it happens for any piece of code.
Anyone have any ideas
Thanks in advance

I have a sub form which has the Save Button. In case the user keys in the details in the sub form, but then directly clicks the Payment command button of the main form, I want to call the Save button in the sub form if the form is dirty, and do the save, otherwise, proceed with the payment command button.
Every time I try to call the save procedure from the main form's Payment button, I get this error that "object does not support this property or method"
I am calling the save button's code in the subform as
forms.MainForm.SubForm.Save Producedure
Exact Code is : Forms.newpatients.InvoiceHeader.Command7_Click
How do I call this command7_click, which resides in the sub form, in the main form, and invoke it only if the data in the sub form has changed.
Please help.
Thanks,

Hi,
I'm attempting to create a foreign key field in a sub-query by using Left() and Instr() to parse the text of my key field and return the characters prior to the second "-".
Example: 002-C100-4569 ---> 002-C100
When I build a second query with a relationship between the foreign key field previously mentioned with the key field in an associated query, I get the error "Invalid Procedure Call"
Here is my foreign key generator string:
CirNo: Left([tbl_IntExt].[ASSETID],InStr(5,[tbl_IntExt].[ASSETID],"-",1)-1)
The query data breifly displays, followed by the error messge, then all query fields display "#Name":mad:
The overall goal is to create a query to update the values in 002-C100-4569 (Child) with values from 002-C100 (Parent).
Any help or advise is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

I have a form with a button to print preview a report. This report needs one input parameter before executing. The computer this will run on is a touch screen and does not have a keyboard. Windows 7 has a "on screen keyboard" program. I want this to run first so that my user can input the parameter.
I have the following which throws an "Invalid procedure Call or Argument"
Sub CallTeclado()
Dim RetVal
RetVal = Shell("c:windowssystem32osk.exe", vbNormalNoFocus)
End Sub
When I try to do an export to excel for a report - it comes back with a message saying Invalid procedure call or argument .
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to run a query in Access 2010 but I am getting an "Invalid Procedure Call" error. I searched online and found that this error can be caused by broken references.
I opened the VB editor (Alt F11) to search for "Missing" references but I do not see any. These are the 4 that are checked.
1. Visual Basic for Applications
2. Microsoft Access 14.0 Object Library

RetVal = Shell("C:Program FilesCommon Filesmicrosoft sharedinkTabTip.exe")
These lines of code work perfectly fine on my development PC which is running Windows 7 64 bit, Access/Office 32 bit.
I know the path to the exe is good. I can navigate and double click it and it works great. but the shell command is resulting in the invalid procedure.
I'm getting this error (invalid procedure call or argument - DLL error 0, number 5) on my accde file but not on the accdb.

Hi All,
I created an Event Procedure on the After Update event for a control in a continuous form. Basically, if certain conditions are met, I want it to disable another control. It works perfectly, except it is disabling the controls for all the records instead of just that record.
Does anyone know how to get it to just update that record? I've been researching and cannot figure it out!
Thanks in advance for any and all help :)

On my form I have a combo box where the user can select the sex of a person. I had set the row source of the combo to a table, tblSex and this works fine. Now I want to programatically add the table entries ( simply male or female) to the row source, having set the combobox to value list. I cant see how to pass the combobox and tablename parameters and I am getting an error on form load "The expression you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: UserDefined type not defined" The calling procedure from frmPeople is
Code:
'---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
' Procedure : Form_Load
' Author : Administrator
' Date : 21/11/2013
[Code].....
I think the way the parameters combobox and tablename are passed is incorrect. I want to write a robust procedure which I can use for each of the comboboxes on my form.
is it possible to call a function in a query with the input of a control element?
I have a form, and there is a list box in which I can choose the calculate method. In the query, a field should calculated with the choosen function.
Example:
Code : SELECT tblTest.price, tblTest.Date, forms![formtest] As Calc
...
The function has the same name as I can choose in the listbox. But, if I run the query a error appears.
Code : "Function forms![formtest]![lstChosenFunction] could not be found"
how I can call a function in SQL with the input of an listbox.
I have a form frmDisplayVars with a subform subfrmDisplayVars. The sub form initially has its RecordSource set to "" and is set dynamically from a maketable when needed.In the OnLoad for the main form, the subform RecordSource is set to a table "Table.Test". This is so that the load routine can execute a maketable query to create the form "Test" in advance. This produces a table from a crosstab query. All this works OK so far.
However, I wish to be able to double click on the datasheet in the subform to then open another form with data related to the cell/contol that was clicked on. Essentially creating a room occupancy table for a range of dates and rooms. Rows are rooms and columns are dates.
I have a problem with setting the OnBblClick for the subform controls.For example the 2 test code lines for the control "RoomName" illustrate.
Code:
Forms!frmDisplayVars!subfrmDisplayVars.Form!RoomName.Name
Forms!frmDisplayVars!subfrmDisplayVars.Form!RoomName.OnDblClick = "=TestMe()"
The first line works fine and returns as it should the name of the control "RoomName".It is the second line which I need to set the event code for OnDblClick which fails with error no. 2455 which suggests wrong syntax for referencing a control on a subform.I can't set the event procedures manually as they are not known in advance until the table "Test" is made so need to be able to set the control events dynamically.
I have a form that has several sub forms and what I want is that if the user chooses Plan Name in the main form "No Fault" or 'Workers Comp". I want message to pop and go to the field in the subform to enter data but I keep on getting an error.
Private Sub Plan_Name_AfterUpdate()
If ([Plan Name] = "No Fault") Then
MsgBox "Enter additional information in No Fault form before continuing."
DoCmd.GoToControl ([NoFaultWCompsubForm]![Attorney Name])
End If
End Sub
It says the action or method requires a control name argument?
What am I missing?
I have just made a change to one of the forms by adding a button (by copying the only other button on the form) to cancel any changes and close the form. However, as soon as I added it I started getting the error message in the title. Please attachment LA Err1 for the full message. I also changed the caption on the other button on the form from "Close Form" to "Save && Close Form" this button is now giving the same error.
I have Compacted and repaired the DB on several occasions to no avail. I have deleted the procedures from the module and recreated them using the properties window - still get the error. I have deleted the buttons from the form and recreated the both via the object wizard and without it. Nothing I have tried has made any effect.
I'm having to recode some old MS Access DBs so they will run in the following environments:
Office 2000 on WinXP
Office 2003 on WinXP
Office 2010 on WinXP
Office 2000 on Win7
Office 2003 on Win7
Office 2010 on Win7
When I wrote my code for Office 2000 on WinXP things were simple because directory paths were the same across all computers and I could hard code pathing when using a shell command to launch other files.
My new approach is to make a function call to the Windows registry to determine the default executable and path for opening a file based upon its extension (see apicFindExecutable in basWindows API module).
I'm able to use code to create a shell call and debug print it to the immediate window. If I put my cursor in the immediate window at the end of the shell call and hit [enter] the external file will open as desired. If I try to open the external file directly through code, I get a file not found error.
To recreate the error take the following steps:
(1) browse to files that are accessible from your computer
(2) click the PREPARE DATA AND OPEN MAIL MERGE DOCUMENTS command button
Shell function call is made by the fnOpenFile function located in the basOpenFile module. There has to be a trick here that I'm missing.
Hi guys. i guess i am half way through. just like final step left still trying to figure it out how to create a VB procedure. anyways this is my theory and this is how much i have achieved. my God i have searched i guess every forum trying to get an answer it should'nt be that hard. I have a database. what i am trying to do is that i have a button for view reports which prompts the user to another form with 3 buttons
1) Issue(based on my query)
2) Issue Resolved(based on my query)
3) Issue not resolved(based on my query)
i am using this onclick command
Private Sub Issue_Resolved_Click()
DoCmd.OutputTo acReport, "Issue resolved", acFormatXLS
End Sub
same thing for my other options. works fine but when i open the report in Excel the whole formatting is bad so with my research i found this code very valuable. a standard module code which is as folllow.
' // Generically formats a worksheet
Private Sub GenericXLFormat(ByRef xlApp As Object, ByVal strDescription As String)

Can someone help? I am working on an event database (based on Microsoft 2003 event database template). At present when I register attendees, I can preview an invoice which is generated based on the information I have entered.
I have set up another option to preview a Letter of Confirmation based on this same principal. As I am "Visually Basic" challenged, I simply 'copied & pasted' the event procedure and made the changes as needed to ensure the correct report was opened (ie not the Invoice report but Confirmation Letter report).
However, when I click the button to open preview the letter, the "Print Invoice" box also opens up (as it does when previewing the invoice). I don't want this box to open as I don't need to enter any details.
Can someone please have a look at my VBA event below to see what I would need to delete to stop the "Print Invoice" box from popping up.
Private Sub LOC_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_ConfirmationLetter_Click
If Me![Attendees Subform].Form.RecordsetClone.RecordCount = 0 Then
MsgBox "Enter attendee and registration information before previewing the Confirmation Letter."
Else
DoCmd.OpenReport "ConfirmationLetter", acPreview, , "[RegistrationID]=" & Forms![Attendees]![Attendees Subform].Form![RegistrationID]
End If
Exit_ConfirmationLetter_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_ConfirmationLetter_Click:
If Err <> 2501 Then
MsgBox Err.Description
End If
Resume Exit_ConfirmationLetter_Click
End Sub
Many thanks for any help.

PS - Below is the original 'Preview Invoice' event that I copied:
Private Sub PreviewInvoice_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_PreviewInvoice_Click
If Me![Attendees Subform].Form.RecordsetClone.RecordCount = 0 Then
MsgBox "Enter attendee and registration information before previewing the invoice."
Else
DoCmd.DoMenuItem acFormBar, acRecordsMenu, acSaveRecord, , acMenuVer70
DoCmd.OpenReport "Invoice", acPreview, , "[RegistrationID]=" & Forms![Attendees]![Attendees Subform].Form![RegistrationID]
End If
Exit_PreviewInvoice_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_PreviewInvoice_Click:
If Err <> 2501 Then
MsgBox Err.Description
End If
Resume Exit_PreviewInvoice_Click
End Sub
In my database I track a program called Bridge. Once you open bridge you can have anywhere from 1 to 7 "Sessions". Each bridge is assigned a number IE LT175A. If there are mulitple sessions they are numbered LT175A, LT175B, LT175C etc. I have a check box in my database that shows if bridge is installed on that PC. If it is then my section for session numbers are visiable, if bridge is not checked then the session numbers section isn't visiable. I currently have my Event Procedure in the After Update section. My code works because if I unclick on bridge my sessions disappears. However when I go to the next record if bridge is checked then my sessions are visiable but on the next record where it isn't checked it still displays the session section. So it isn't adjusting itself from record to record. Does my code need to go someplace else or am I doing something else wrong?
Here is the code I have:(and it's under After Update)
Private Sub Bridge_AfterUpdate()
If Me.Bridge = False Then
Me.BridgeSession_1.Visible = False
Me.BridgeSession_2.Visible = False
Me.BridgeSession_3.Visible = False
Me.BridgeSession_4.Visible = False
Me.BridgeSession_5.Visible = False
Me.BridgeSession_6.Visible = False
Me.BridgeSession_7.Visible = False
ElseIf Me.Bridge = True Then
Me.BridgeSession_1.Visible = True
Me.BridgeSession_2.Visible = True
Me.BridgeSession_3.Visible = True
'Me.BridgeSession_4.Visible = True
'Me.BridgeSession_5.Visible = True
'Me.BridgeSession_6.Visible = True
'Me.BridgeSession_7.Visible = True
End If
End Sub

Hi,
I need to write a stored procedure that sits between sql server and MS access. This procedure will make sure that the queries run in access against the data in sql server will not access data for more than two years back. This is so that the queries run against the sql server do not hang up the server for too long.
Thank you.
