Attached is a project I am working on. It's a personal reminder program. The problem I am having is that when I enter the actual completion date at the bottom and click on the "Complete Task" button, I want the record to be copied to the History table, then the Start Date and Due Dates reset based on the Frequency. If someone could look at the On Click event procedure for this button and help me get this fixed, I would appreciate it very much. I don't know much about VB or SQL coding.
Thanks,
Jim
I have two fields [InReview] and [TestReviewed].I'm trying to create a filter in the Onclick event of a button like so:
Code:
Me.Filter = "InReview Is Not Null" & "TestReviewed Is Not Null"
Me.FilterOn = true
This is not working for some reason. What is the correct way to concatenate a filter in VBA?
I would like to make clickable labels on my form, so if the user has any questions about the field, clicking on the label would bring up a message box that would give them more information. I know how to write onclick events one by one for every label, but there are a lot of them, and I feel like there has to be a better way.
I put the label names, and the text I'd like for the message box in a table, and I'd like to have a module that will allow me to click on a label, and have the right text come up.
I've researched ways to do this and have come up with nothing. The farthest I've gotten is an array tied to the form open event that just displays all the message boxes from first to last, one after the other. I believe that's on the right track, but is not a workable solution as is. I need to be able to tie the message box to the actual label the user clicks.
Visual Studio IDE environment and I have been working with Access VBA for almost a year now.
I am very used to generating my form controls in runtime and being able to create some cool user interface interactions by being able to say btnExample.OnClick += MyDynamicClickFunction
MyDynamicClickFunction(Object sender, EventArgs e).... code
Any way to assign functions to the events of already made controls on a form. Probably during the load event?
Now I have found that there are many ways to replicate Visual Studio's features by accessing User32 and replicating them
I have a continuous subform which essentially comprises of a textbox that shows a field from a query.
The text in that box is essentially a few letters and a few numbers - what I am wondering is if I can have an on click event for the textbox, that when a user clicks the text it takes them to the record (in a different form) that matches the text contained in the textbox they clicked?
So on a command button I have this code in the OnClick event. When I click the button it will ask me to enter the name if blank but if I enter something in that field and then delete the data is bypasses this. Does the same reason field, Why?
Code:
If IsNull(Me.CE) Then
MsgBox "Please enter your name"
Me.CE.SetFocus
Exit Sub
[Code] ....
I tried to dynamically set image OnClick property to function with couple of attributes. Everything works well, but... it launches the function automatically without any mouse click! What is causing this? I want to execute the function only on the result of mouse click.
Piece of code:
Forms!Form1.Controls("Image" & i).OnClick = fclick(PiltID)
Private Function fclick(u)
DoCmd.OpenForm "Form2"
Forms!Form2.Image0.Picture = u
End Function
I have a table that holds the SQL texts for ca. 1000 Select queries (mostly minor variants that are used to programmatically swap out RowSource strings for combo boxes). I'd like to have a quick and easy way to open/review/modify these queries.
One strategy would be to display the SQL strings in a field on a Datasheet form, then use an onClick event on a text box linked to the SQL-holding field (or perhaps an onClick event tied to an unbound text box on the form) to open the associated query. That would allow me to view the SQL of the query that I want to open, allow me to quickly scroll through the list of stored SQL texts, and give me options for sorting or limiting the SQL-texts displayed in the datasheet form.
But, I can't seem to get the onClick event to work. The problem seems to be that I can't figure out how to pass the SQL string contained in the field to a function that will use that string to open the query .
I have a tabbed form in a navigation form with a chart on it. The records source of the chart is a query. The query runs when you click the tab and takes a long time. I changed the Row Source of chart to "" and that eliminates the query running on form load. I've read many posts on changing that row source when a command button is clicked. I tried
Code:
Me!Suspend_Trending_Dashboard![chart].RecordSource = suspend_trend_CHART
in the onclick event of the command button. This doesn't work. I've tried many variations of the syntax. I don't know if I have to tell the query to run after the row source is changed.
On a side note, the query criteria is based on beginning and end dates entered into text boxes on the form. This all works if the query loads when the form is opened.
I have a problem with an SQL query that is used to create a report, the query itself works fine, however I need to get it to do something extra. Basically we have a column that contains 1-3 letters. The letters are A, B and C. The query searches the database and returns result depending on which of the letters we entered. We do this using the like statment -:
SELECT * FROM TableUser WHERE UserType LIKE B
So the above SQL statement returns all entries with the letter B in the column UserType. Also we my need to search for AB, which returns all entries with AB and ABC. The problem is that we sometimes need to search for AC, which should return the values AC and ABC. The problem is that it only returns the values AC and not ABC. I know why it does this as it is searching for a string like 'AC', I am just not sure how to get round the problem. Is there a way of searching the string for the Value AC so that it returns the entries AC and ABC.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Cheers

I am working on a database which has two tables used as part of a registration and login process.
I would like a couple of fields from table one to automatically update in table two, once the fields in table one are populated without using an 'on click' event.
The reason I would prefer not to use an onclick is because the completion of the form used to generate the users table does not require any buttons for the data to save.
Hi there,
I've successfully created, for the first time, a database with many attributes that is searchable by most of those attributes as well. I've finally gotten the swing of how tables, forms, queries, and macros link up and am understanding how MSA works.
I can't seem to find any information on here that tells me how to do wildcard searches. For my particular application, people enter items into the database in a nonstandard fashion, i.e. "oring," "o-ring," and "o ring." I need to enable the capability to search "ring" so my search functions are fully maximized.
Can anyone help?
Thanks!
i have a form with a control for "repair type" and a subform that has a query that searches a table holding vehicle repair records. on the form the user can enter up to 5 repair types, [repair1], [repair2], etc.. Then the control on the form holds each type of repair to search by. Since the user could use one or all five repair fields and put repair types likes brakes in field one on one record and field 5 on another record, how do i search to just pull out those records that have the specified search criteria?
If i put in [form]![control] in each of the 5 criteria in the query it comes back with no records, because it it looking for that type in every repair field rather than once between the five fields?
I have query that filters my list in Access. The list can be filtered in different ways(like using a combobox). This is the criteria of the query for the field Title of the table Book:
Code:
Like IIf([Forms]![frmName]![cmbSearch].[OnClick];"*" & [Forms]![frmName]![txtSearchBar] & "*"; [Book]![Title])
What I want is when the cmbSearch is clicked, the list must show the Tiltes where the title of the book contains the words of the search bar. When its not clicked on that button, the list must show all the titles.
Here is the SQL of the query:
Code:
SELECT Book.ID, Book.Title FROM Book
WHERE (((Book.Title) Like IIf([Forms]![frmName]![cmbSearch].[OnClick],"*" & [Forms]![frmName]![txtSearchBar] & "*", [Book]![Title]))
The problem is the list filters whether I click on a different cmdButton or an optionButton. I dont know why [cmbSearch].[OnClick] doesnt work.
I have a form (Datasheet). I need to define some variable in form as string, which can work with any event. E.G in column "A"on event after update, in column "B" on event after update...
I will try to explain with a simple example : form (datasheet) columns: "A", "B"
on event after update in coulmn "A", I could have some like this:
(variable what I need to define) = 3
on event after update in coulmn "B", I could have some like this:
If (variable what I need to define) = 3 then
msgbox "ok"
end if
Now I try to work around the problem and use another column "c" to keep the value from after update A - but I know that, it's bad solution -Right?
I have a table with many records, using a form with an update button click event, I would like to update ALL records where the Item in the table = the Item in the form.
There are 6 checkboxes and 6 text boxes that will need to be updated, but right now I am just trying to test if i can even change one text box to keep it simple. I have tried to start by using this:
Code:
Dim mySQL As String
Dim ItemNo As String
Dim SO As String
mySQL = "UPDATE BT200 SET Part = '" & SO & "' WHERE Item = " & ItemNo
DoCmd.RunSQL mySQL
So every time i run this command button, it gives me a prompt "You are about to update 0 row(s)". Nothing gets updated at all, I am clearly missing something vital here.
I am in the process of building a new database in SQL to replace my MS Access database. However, I will continue to use the Access forms, queries, and reports. The new tables will house much of the same data. In multiple tables I have hyperlinks that were created and added in the original Access tables. To import these hyperlinks into the new SQL tables I have converted them to 'Long Text' before exporting, thus changing them into strings.
For example:
Hyperlink - Email - Add Additional Mailbox to Outlook (2010) has been changed to:
Email - Add Additional Mailbox to Outlook (2010)#ServernameServerfolderDocumentationRea dy to GoOutlook TemplatesEmail - Add Additional Mailbox to Outlook (2010).oft#
The obvious issue that I am running into is that after the SQL database table has been linked to the Access database it still displays the entire string when I open the table. The form has a textbox and search button that is used as a search function. This runs a query that returns all "search results" for the desired information. Is there a way that the query can convert the string back into a hyperlink so that the query displays just Email - Add Additional Mailbox to Outlook (2010) as a hyperlink and not the entire string?
I have a "form1" to entry data to "table1". In this form I placed a command button to open a "Search form". After I do a search by query in "Search form" and found a record and I want to close this "Search form" and go back to the "form1" which already focus to founded record.
Thank you for any code provided
In the Table I have in the trailer database has, among many, 2 fields called 'Maximum Length' and 'Minimum Length'. Say, the data in these fields could be 5 and 4 respectively. I would like to create a search box where I can type in any length such as 4.4 and the database would return the trailer that can fit this length. (Sot the searched value is between the Min. and Max. length) What would I need to type into the query box and the search form to type in the length?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a database which has numbers for different statistics and i would like to be able to search, for example, the past 10 weeks and find out how many time a certain number has been recorded.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a table that has 4 fields; id_vl, id_product, date_vl, vl.
Basically each product is valued either on a monthly, weekly or daily basis. I want to create a filter that is based on a text box that filters the dates from which one can look at the dates of valuation and the associated values.
The problem comes with the products valued on a weekly or monthly basis. For example, if I simply say [tblvl].[date_vl]>=Me.textbox, and me.textbox = 13/09/2013, yet the last value date for a weekly product was 09/09/2013, this record won't be included. Therefore I need to set the date of the previous record as the filter. This is my attempt but it doesnt work...
Code:
SELECT tblVL.Id_VL, tblVL.Id_Product, tblVL.Date_VL, tblVL.VL,
FROM tblVL
WHERE iif(tblvl.date_vl<>me.fees_start_date, [tblVL].Date_VL>=(SELECT
MAX(PrevDate.Date_VL)
FROM tblVL AS PrevDate WHERE PrevDate.Date_VL<[tblVL].[Date_VL] AND PrevDate.Id_Product=tblVL.Id_Product;),tblvl.date_vl>=Me.fees_start_date)
;
I have a query and need it to filter between to dates that are entered into a form.
The dates are long date fields (dd/dd/dd hh/mm/ss)
I've used the following search criteria
Between #" & [forms]![frmSearch]![txtTimefrom] & "# And #" & [forms]![frmSearch]![txtTimeTo] & "#
But clearly I am missing something because when I go and save the query it comes up with the following error "the expression you entered has an invalid date value".
Been trying loads of different expressions but nothing seem to work.
Is there anyway to search each row within one column for a value ? The "IN" clause appears not to work for multiple values in a row.
SELECT Table_Payee_List.CategoryIDs, Table_Payee_List.PayeeSelectBox INTO GOTIT
FROM Table_Payee_List
WHERE (((Table_Payee_List.CategoryIDs) In ("25")));
Data (two columns with 5 rows) are represented below:
Payee CategoryIDs
Column Column
John Doe 21, 27, 32, 34, 44 - Row 1
Jane Doe 20, 25, 28, 42, 44 - Row 3
Paul Doe 19, 25, 28, 42, 44 - Row 3
James Doe 56, 29, 31, 62, 54 - Row 4

I am currently working through my A2 (final year of high school in the UK) ICT coursework, in which I am building an Access database system for a small wedding car hire company.
My current problem is I would like to (not even sure if it's possible but I assume it is) have a form that searches a query for a date that the customer has entered.
If there is no date in the query that matches the one that the customer has entered, it means that their chosen date is available. If there is a match however it means that the date is unavailable.
I am using Microsoft Access 2010.
