Modules & VBA :: Auto Populate Hyperlink Control?

Nov 14, 2014

I have a form titled 'New/Edit/Search Contractor Employee" that provides controls to fields within a table titled "Contractors". In this table, I have a Hyperlink field that will store the location of the files related to individual employees. On this form, I have a Control that (at the moment) the user can copy a Hyperlink and enter into this, to populate the field. This will then allow the user to click on this Hyperlink to open up the individual folder location to drag and drop whatever files they want associated to this individual record.

I have created a Command Button to automatically create a unique folder for this record, VBA below:

Private Sub Command168_Click()
strPath = "V:IntProdTrans&OpsTERMINALSDriver and Contractor Database 2014ContIndPW" & "" & txtCompanyID
If Len(Dir(strPath, vbDirectory)) = 0 Then
MkDir strPath
End If
strPath = "V:IntProdTrans&OpsTERMINALSDriver and Contractor Database 2014ContIndPW" & "" & txtCompanyID & "" & txtFirstName & " " & txtLastName
If Len(Dir(strPath, vbDirectory)) = 0 Then
MkDir strPath
End If
End Sub

What I'm trying to work out now is how to automatically enter this new folder location into the Control, which is then viewable and can be clicked on. I managed to do this (can't for the life of me remember how) but it entered the location as text and I wasn't able to click.

The Hyperlink control is titled 'Induction Paperwork' relates to a Hyperlink field.

Modules & VBA :: Auto Populate Fields

Aug 17, 2015

In a form, I have a comboBox with 3 columns.I update the field and with this piece of code, I update two more fields based on this comboBox data/columns.

Code:
Me.EUR.Value = Me.Combo37.Column(2)
Me.USD.Value = Me.Combo37.Column(3)

I wonder if I can update fields which are not parts of a combo.For example, suppose I have a form with two fields, DATE and USD, Once I update the DATE field, this event, auto populates the USD exchange rate field.

Modules & VBA :: Recursive Search And Populate Results In Tree View Control

May 28, 2015

I need some VBA coding to do the following tasks

Table 1: two columns - Child Tag and Parent Tag. Parent Tags can also be in Child Tag column. In other words, a parent can have multiple levels of children.

Table 2: one column - Backup Tag.

I'd like to have a form with a combo box, pick a Parent Tag, the search all its child tags and compare each Child Tag found with records in Table 2 to see if there is a match. Then populate all results in a tree view control.

A visual example :

Parent Tag
...Child Tag 1 - Back up tag found
......Child Tag 11
......Child Tag 12 - Back up tag found
...Child Tag 2
......Child Tag 21
...Child Tag 3
......Child Tag 31
.........Child Tag 311 - Back up tag found

Populate Hyperlink

Mar 13, 2007

Let me explain my problem and say that I've found a partial fix to my problem, but I need help figuring the rest out.

I need to open a hyperlink on the internet and populate it with data based on a form record in my database. More clearly, I need to do a search on an address on a website called zillow.com, based on that address in my form in the db. For example, if the property address in my db is 123 Anywhere St., Topeka, KS 99999, I need to click a button that will open zillow.com, and populate the address and city/state/zip fields with the corresponding info from the record in the db. Here's what I've got so far:

VB Code: Original - VB Code Application.FollowHyperlink "http://www.zillow.com", , True, False Application.FollowHyperlink "http://www.zillow.com", , True, False

Here's the deal. When you do the internet search on zillow, it puts in %20 for every space and I can't figure out how to parse the record to automatically put these characters in.

I'm wondering if there's a way to tell the db in code to do this:

Application.FollowHyperlink "http://www.zillow.com/search/Search.htm?addrstrthood=2200%20Corley%20Drive&citystatezip=Las%20Cruces%2C%20NM%2088001", , True, False

I hope someone knows what I'm talking about. Thanks!

Tables :: Auto Generate Hyperlink In Table Based On Field Name

Aug 29, 2014

I Have a table with 15000 entries. This table lists components we use. This table is used to generate queries/forms. I have been asked to add a hyperlink to this table to link to a drawing of the component. All the drawings are in PDF and in the same folder. I am looking for a way to automatically update the hyperlink fields all at once. The Hyperlink will be in the format of servershareddrawings12345.pdfwhere 12345 is the component name from the table.

But there are a few small problems with the component names.
1. If the component begins with a B- . The drawing name will be all the characters except when there is a second dash in the component. So if the component is B-12345-678 the drawing name will only be B-12345.
2. If The component begins with AB, The drawing will be the first 5 characters regardless of what follows, e.g. AB123.
3. Finally for all other components the full component name will be the drawing name.

Putting the naming to one side, how to go about auto generating the hyperlink. I have posted this in the table section, but maybe this should be in another section like queries or VBA.

Auto Populate- Help For A Newbie

Dec 10, 2007

Hi, everyone! I hope that someone is willing to help me with a database that I'm trying to set up. I'm a teacher and want to use Access to track behavior notes and parent contacts. I'm trying to make the database work efficiently for me and need some help with auto-populating fields.

Here's an example of what I want:
Field 1= date (I have this setup to fill in automatically)
Field 2= student name
Field 3= behavior code
Field 4= comment


I want to type in a code for a behavior in Field 3, such as "t", and have "talking excessively" automatically pop up into Field 4. This would just make it faster for me to enter all my info, and then I can make a report that only shows the date, name, and comment without the codes showing up. I currently have the behavior codes listed in another table, but I don't know if that's where they belong or what. I've found some web sites that have codes for auto-populating, but I have no idea where to put them or what to change in order to personalize them for my database. Is there anyone willing to walk me through this? TIA!



These are the codes that I have:
codememo
bdid not have book in class
cdclass disruption
dadetention assigned
dcdress code violation
dsdetention served
hdhad head down throughout lesson
nwdid not complete classwork

Auto Populate Next Form

Nov 11, 2005

Hey all,

Maybe im just having a brain fart, but I cant get this method to work.

There are two forms, the first records Two Names, The Bride and The groom along with their wedding date and where they registered. After all the data is entered on the first form, the first form is closed, and the second one is open.

What I would like to do is pass the info from the first form on to the second one. The second one uses the bride's info and the wedding date.

I tried using the query to fill it in but I havent had any luck. Been a long day.. maybe just not thinking clearly.


Any help would be appreicated, and thank you in advance to any replies!

Thanks!

Auto Populate A Combo Box

Jan 21, 2006

I accidentally posted this in "general"...so I am posting it here under "forms", since it is "form" related. My intention was not to double-post...sorry.
Summerwind had posted an example to auto populate a combo box. The code below follows his example, but is not working for me:

The fields I have on my form are:

cboCompany
cboLocation

cboCompany is based on tblCompany( with fields CompanyName, Location)

When I update the cboCompany field, I want the cboLocation combo box to populate with all locations for the company that was entered into the cboCompany combo box on the form. E.g. The company "Visions" may be exist in the tblCompany with 3 different locations: Visions (Las Vegas), Visions (Ohio), Visions(California). When I pick the company "Visions" from the cboCompany combo box, I want the cboLocation combobox to be populated with "Las Vegas", "Ohio", and "California".

The code is as follows but returns empty records in cboLocation:


Code:
Dim StrSource As String

StrSource = "SELECT Location FROM tblCompany WHERE tblCompany.CompanyName Like " & Me.cboCompany.Column(1)
With Me.cboLocation
.RowSource = StrSource
.SetFocus
.Dropdown
End With

Can anyone help with this...thank you.

Okay--I have a table of scholarships, and each one has fields for primary contact, secondary contact, tertiary contact, etc., in which the names of the contacts associated with each scholarship are stored. What I need to do is to have every name pulled from this table and listed--each as its own row--in another table.

One Lookup Or Auto Populate Field

Feb 25, 2006

Haven't touched Access in quite some time and now I can do a simple task.

Here's what I have:

2 Tables

Table 1 includes 2 fields COURSE CODE and COURSE NAME

Table 2 will be a list of students and the courses they have taken

What I'm trying to do is as I'm entering a new student in the database I want the course name to automatically fill in when I type in the course name.

I did lookup fields for both the course code and the course name to ensure the correct codes are entered. However since the data in table 2 does not autofill there is the posibilty of having a row with a course name that does not match the course code.

How can I force table to 2 match the course name and code relationship from table 1?:confused:
