Hi,
I have used a tab control to create some forms. However, I can't modify or delete any of the information. It's seems like the forms are just read-only.
How can I change it so that I can modify and delete info please?
Thanks in advance.
I added a new field to one of my tables and query, but when I try to add a control for that field into my form it is not recognising it and the field isn't appearing in the sources for the form, even though the table is sourced to the form? Or am I going to have to do the usual and redo the entire form because I made a minor adjustment?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a form with a tab control, inside the tab control I placed an ActiveX control (Microsoft Web Browser). These are at the bottom of the form.
Everything displays fine if the entire form fit on the screen but if the form is too long and I scroll down the browser control is getting obscured by the tab control and getting chopped off (the contents are covered). It is as if the browser control is staying in space where it was and moving behind the tab control as I scroll.
This problem does not occur if I place the browser control directly on the form. Also I note that the browser control is sitting correctly within the tab control.
I have been through all the settings and properties of both controls and haven't been able to fix it. I searched all over the web but no one has previously stumbled across this one by the look of it.
See the attached image ...
I have table that I had to add a new field to which we update with a form. I tried to add a control for the new field but the field does not show up in the list for the control source. I am trying to add a list box to the form with a blank and 5 options.
I have attached screen shots of the table design and the form. The table has the field in datasheet view and I have manually entered a few entries in it but it still will not show in the control source for the form control. The top section of the form is where we enter and select the data for the new records. The bottom section (circled in red) autofills the matching record, from separate tables, for updating with the new entries.
I have added form controls for modified fields in the past so I am confused about why this is happening.
OK. I have searched and searched and every thread dances around similar situations but none seem to address this particular one. I am trying to make a control on a sub form visible/not visible depending on the condition of a control on a main form. The catch is that the control I'm trying to change the state of is on a subform located in a tab control. I've tried a thousand combinations and none seem to work. How do I reference the control on the subform in a tab control?
Main Form: frmMemberMain
Tab Control: TabCtl12
Tab Control Page: 2
Subform: frmChildren
Control on subform: txtRelationship
Can someone please help before my brain explodes!! Thanks! :eek:
Hi,
I have reviewed the posts for 'Control Validation' and dowloaded the sample database kindly posted by ansentry.
In the PaymentAmount example, a name has to be entered in the first control before an amount is enterered in the second control. If the controls and tab order are reversed, the validation doesn't work.
I have a form where the 1st Control needs validating before moving on. The code below doesn't work.
Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
If IsNull(Me.Employee_No) Then
MsgBox "Employee No Required", vbCritical, "Data required "
Cancel = True
Me.Employee_No.SetFocus
Exit Sub
End If
End Sub
Any help greatly appreciated.

Hi all,
I am creating a DB using tab controls, I have my information in each tab section. When I come to view in Form View and move my mouse around the tab page it shudders for some reason? anyone know why and how i can fix it?? Thanks:confused:
I would like to be able to add a tabbed control to one of the pages of a tab control. I have made several attempts and it hasn't worked. There is no reference to it in MS help. I have seen many databases with this facility (not necessarily MS Access). Can anybody offer a suggestion please.

I usually use wizard for creating forms only now I need to have tabs for quite a few forms.
I've recently discovered that you cant simply put your labels and field on a page then select another tab and put other labels and fields on. I've tried looking frmSampl provided by microsoft put cannot figure out hows the single form with tab control on it works.
Can anyone direct me to online help with forms or provide any help with the tab control tool?
I want a Command Button on a form to move to the next Command Button. I basically want to do the same thing as the Tab button on my keyboard. However, I do not want to use the keyboard.
View 5 Replies View RelatedWe have just been upgraded to '03 and while poking around noticed that the tab control changed a little. The main diff was the active tab is slightly easier to pick up because of the highlight line (See attachment). Does anyone know of any other changes in the newer version in the tab control or any other control?
View 6 Replies View RelatedThis seems like it would be easy enough, but I can't seem to find an answer. I'd like to put a tab control on one page of a main tab control. I've tried to select the page and create a new tab control and cut and paste existing tab control, but in both cases the tab control pastes into the detail section of the form (where my main tab control is) and thus appears on all pages. Anyone know what I need to do? Thanks for any help.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have added tab controls to my already created form. My original page sits there alone, not on a tab control. How do I put it on a tab control without having to re do everything??? I tried to put it on a tab/page and it lost all the lable names and changed it to numbers.
View 4 Replies View RelatedDear All,
I'd like to bar (make unable to use ) a combo list on my form. The state of the combo list should depend on the true/false state of a checkbox.
I don't know whether it is possible in access.
I'd like to ask for your help.
Thanks in advance.

A simple question. I have tried to add Tab Control(s) in another tab control but those added tab control added in one particular tab control are shows on all tab controls in the same forms. Is it MS Acess limitation or I just don't get it done correctly?

thanks in advance for any help...

If this issue had been addressed before, please direct me to the thread; otherwise please help.
I've created several TABS on a form. Each tab contains several drop down lists.
I've also put a field above the tabs for displaying the choices that I make on the various tabs, BUT I can't get the choices to display in the field above the tabs.
Can anyone help?
Just wanted a little help please. I have about 100 option boxes on a form and I want to be able to change the names of the option box and its label. I want to name them from 1 to 100 sequentially. (i.e. option1, option2 ...).
When I create the controls it automatically names them option0, option2 etc. and label3, label5 etc.
I was going to change them via some code but I don’t know how to refer to a control in a form from design view.
Can anyone help please?
Thanks

When the application starts up I need to control the user of the system, I will have to accounts which I will define one will act as an admin and the second will act as a user the differences is that the user acts is “read only” cannot add, delete and edit.
I would appreciate your comments and ideas regarding this part?
Thanks.
I am not even totally sure that is what you call it. . but I have most of my experience in VB.NET and this VBA in Access 2002 is killin me. HA. . .
I am trying to dynamically create checkboxes (50 of them) in 10 rows and 5 columns. This is part of a "im bored" project and would like to be able to tackle the dynamic controls area.
I am thinking I want to keep the naming convention as "chkBox01. . .02. . .03" so that I can use the mid() function to determine its "value" and apply the value in the proper place.
I suppose the only thing I need is an example if anyone has one of a checkbox or any control for that matter being made by VBA and not placed on the form manually. 50 check boxes suck when trying to rename them all. sigh
Hi all, at the moment all of my field are control sourced. I heard there is a way whereby the field could be unbound and one button it the control source for them all. Im not entirely sure what this means or how to go about it. But i think it would solve the problem of if my users start entering data into a record and then decide to leave it, this record is automatically added to the table, with little or no data. As the data in the table is used for statistics, the table showing records which are not actually there is causing problems. Im not sure if i explained this well, but i would be grateful of any help. Thanx
View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to run code when I change a page in the Tab Control object. The code I run depends on the page selected.
I tried the 'On Click' code of the page, but that didnt seem to run when I clicked on the pages.
The 'On Change' code of the Tab Control object seems to run whenever I change a page.
So the question is:
1/ Is it possible to run code when an individaul page is clicked on?
OR
2/ What is the syntax of identifying which page is selected?
If TabControl = 1 then

I have a subform listing items for purchase. Some are services and are not taxable, some are products and are taxable.
So far, I am calculating the sales tax for each record (item paid for), based on whether the thing is taxable or not and putting that result in a text box (txtSales_Tax) on the form. Since these calculated amounts aren't stored in a field, I can't SUM them, since SUM only works on data in table fields. Can someone tell me how to get a total?
Otherwise, I'll get rid of txtSales_Tax entirely, if someone can tell me how to write a SUM function, as a Control Source, that includes an IIf, or a WHERE, so it only adds items where the yes/no field Taxable=True.
I've got an IIf with a SUM function in it but, even in the footer, that only works for the current record. I need a SUM that has a nested IIf or WHERE in order to include all the records.
I just discovered TreeView Controls after browsing through this site today...in a word, awesome!
I've done alot of searching, and it seems that most of the discussion on TreeView is at a data level.
What I am wondering is if a TreeView can be used as a database navigational pane...ie switchboard, where the nodes are comprised of individual forms and/or reports, that when clicked, opens the associated form/report?
Does anybody have a sample db where this is being done or can somebody give me some tips on doing this?
I have a sample treeview.mdb in 2000, and I can freely create the parent and child nodes. That is the extent of my knowledge. I don't know how to make the nodes "actionable".
I appreciate all the advice!
Am sure there is a simple solution to the people that know.....which isn't me!
But I have a text box on a report to calculate % of total and don't know how to Round it up or display the total?
The Text box is:
=([TotalTemp])/([GrandTotal])*100
Tried =Round([TotalTemp])/([GrandTotal])*100 & "%" with no joy and have quite a few of these to implement.
