Modules & VBA :: Select 3 Records And Display On 1 Form
May 6, 2014
I have a problem in which in the user may need to select 3 records at random from my table and display some details of those records in from view so that they can edit certain fields and just look at others.
Ideally I'd want a form with 3 separate dropdown boxes and each dropdown has the option to select 1 record from all the records in my table.
All 3 records must be visible on the screen at the same time.
I created a form to enter the lookup data and build the SQL string to create a recordset in VBA that is a subset of the original data. Using the Form wizard I created a form that displays ALL of the records in that original table (actually a QUERY). What I want to do is open this second form but have it reference the recordset I built in VBA.
I am trying to display on a form the average number of lines/records per hour that a person is adding to the database.
Trying to work with Dfirst and DLast I'd subtract the time of the most recent record from the time of the first record entered and then divide the number of records to display the average per hour in a text box.
I created a subform that displays the records of a select query after selecting the desired data from a single combo box (for instructors name) and then using an OpenQuery macro attached to a button.
Only 1 record is displayed in the subform each time I hit the button. If I look at the query return there is no change. However, if I close the query and select a new instructors name, although I only get one record in the subform, the query when opened shows all the correct records.
In an Access 2010 form is it possible to export select records and fields in those records to a specific location?
Code: Set objDialog = Application.FileDialog(4) With objDialog .AllowMultiSelect = False .Title = "Please select a File" .InitialFilename = "C:" .Show If .SelectedItems.Count = 0 Then MsgBox ("Action Cancelled") Else
[code]....
The user can select the directory using the code above, but can specific fields in records be exported to a excel workbook in that selected directory?For example, if the are 5 records in the database can the fields LastName,FirstName,BirthDate in records 1,2,3 be exported to Setup.xlsx in that selected directory?
My users have asked for a form to display various database statistics, as they prefer this to a report. I have designed a form which contains several DLookUps and some sub forms. But several areas on the form display "white", as if they are being selected by deafult.
For each area/element/text box, I have set the Tab Stop and Auto Tab properties to No. Each background and border is also transparent. Is there some other setting I need to adjust, whether at the main form, subform or individual text box level?
The form works fine, it just doesn't LOOK very professional and I'm keen to improve how I do things. Please see attachment. Thanks.
I have a bound form which is from tblEmployee, I'd like to have a dataset below (like a splitform but not a split as they have limits) so when i search in the box it gives me say all the smiths - i select for example david smith and it displays his information in the form objects above so they can be edited?
How to use combo box that drops down the date received from which the user can select todisplay "receipt form" on and after that date. [need to use macro]
I have a master table located on the backend of the server with about 3 fields:
Software Version Description
I have 4 databases, one for each software on the front end accessing this master table.
So far I have in the master table a dropdown to select 1 of the 4 software's, the version number and a brief description.
One the front end I have a button that when pressed will bring up the report based on the master table.
Can I have the report just select the software that it refers to. For instance if the datebase is Sony when I click on the report it only grabs the records with Sony on it. For my next database when I open up Sharp's database it only makes a report for the Sharp records.
How would I do this? Is this something I have to code or something I can do in criteria or do I create a query?
I am trying to create a form that will select records by date range. The form contains 2 textboxes, with pop-up calendars to select dates. I managed to come up with this code, however, it's not working. Whenever I run the code, my database just goes blank, as though it's selecting something that is not in the records.
Code: Private Sub Command16_Click() Dim Task As String Dim startDate As Date Dim endDate As Date startDate = Me.Text12 endDate = Me.Text14
Task = "SELECT * FROM Final WHERE Final.Timestamp BETWEEN #" & startDate & "# AND #" & endDate & "#;" Me.RecordSource = Task End Sub
How does one actually do the date range search? Could it be because my timestamp actually has both date and time, that's why the date search is not working?
I have a button that duplicates records 'X' amount of times based on a value in a text box.
I need a message box to advise the user that they have created record number from - to
Eg
User creates 5 records - first record created has a auto number of 3200
I need the message box to say 'you have just created records 3200 - 3204
Is this possible?
Here is the current code on the duplicate button courtesy of Uncle Gizmo
Private Sub AddRecord_Click() On Error GoTo AddRecord_Click_Err Dim x As Integer For x = 1 To (Me.txtAmount.Value - 1) DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSelectRecord DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdCopy
With this very simple command, I have the ability to send emails to several clients, reporting many things, quotations etc.
Private Sub Command84_Click() DoCmd.SendObject , , , , , , "SOMETHING", [SalesGroupingField] & "" & [1], True, "" End Sub
Now, i want, on the body of the emai, to display many records, it is from Nothwind, how can i display on the body of the email all records from this report?
Ok I am probably goining nuts by now. I could have swore that I had a referance book that showed how to set up a form with multiple combo boxes that were used to filter forms/reports for desired records. Now I can't find that referance anywhere! Does anyone know how to do this or can they point me to a referance with this information? Please help me, this is one of the final touches I need for a project I have been working on for months.
I have a continuous form that opens all of the records for a specific user on a specific date and displays them in a continuous form. Each record requires an approval check box be marked before it can be processed for reporting. I want the approver to be able to click a button and mark all of the records displayed at one time. Currently my button will only mark the current record. How to I select all of the records?

I have a query that querys another query for check boxes that are checked. I would like to display in a text box on a form the # of records that the query found to be checked. I have looked all day and have found nothing that I have enough knowledge to use. I need to know how and how to apply this. If you have other suggestions to do this, I am game! :) Thanks!!!
:rolleyes: Hmm how should I put it? I want like to create a form so I can show 8 to 10 records at a time on a single page (instead of using continuous form); so when I press the next button, the next set of 8 records will be show on the next page.
I want to be able to display all the Vacancies for one company in a form and all the consultancy in one form, i know i could do it though querys but i have 600 companies and that would be ridiculous.
Is there any way i can do it by selecting a business and been able to see all records for that business.
I am new here and have been using the build features (and not the code as I do not understand this) to build my registration database.
I have several tables of imported data nicely displayed in one form with tabbed sections. When I tried adding new records by entereing them in the form, they are saved in the underlying tables but the new records are not displayed in the form when I go back into the form.
All the tables seem to be linked to the form when I go into the form selector and Edits are allowed in the property box.
I need to put in a form which basically lists all the clients names, with a button next door to each name, allowing them to edit their details. Is this possible.
Basically when loading the form, all client names are displayed in alphabetical order. Clicking on the edit button next door to the client, displays the client details in another form for easy editing. How can I do this .
I have a table which contains business details (name, address etc) and also a field for clients. I then have a table which contains client details. Is there anyway I can click a button on a form containing business details which brings up a form containing the clients which would allow me to click the clients I want to be inserted onto the clients field on the business details table?
I am creating a database to store employee data, its divided among 3 tables, storing :Employment data,Personal data and Payment data, the 3 tables are related using a 1-1 relationship between the common field ID in each. I`ve created a form through which all data needed for the fields in each table is entered,while entering the data its possible to view the records, however, when i close the form and check the tables, the data is going to the respective tables,however,after i open the table and then go back to the form, its not possible to view the records in the form, they`re still in the table but i cant view them through the form, i can still add new records using the form, but i`m not seeing the old records anymore. Anyone, help?

I am creating a data base to handle access requests to a building. All has gone well so far and ive built tables, reports, forms and used queries. However now im trying to get abit more clever and ive hit a bump of understanding/apprach.
Whilst a ninja in Excel, im still working out which is the pointy end in Access.
The database holds all details of access requests inc: Company attending, Individual attending, Access Levels and Period of attendance. This is all done with forms for the users and functions beautifully (ish).
I can run reports on this data, based on queries (there is much more included than above but you get the idea) and generate all the reports I need.
What I wanted to do was add, following attendance to the site, the card details of the AC card they were given for the visit.
My intention was to have a form with three variables: a combobox that would let you select the individuals company and two text boxes to select a date range in. Leaving just say three or four people from that company on that day rather than everyone who had ever atteneded to sort through and add the card details.
The combo box comes from another query that gave me individual company names from the main table.
I thought a date query (as in placing a more than <> or less than criteria vs textbox value on form in the query build section) could be added but I hadnt got that far.
It seems what I have done works backwards (oops), I can adjust the query from the form but get every record in the table on the form to click through to add card details, which will be abit rubbish when i have 1000's of requests building up in the history.
