Hi
I have sendkey "{f7}" on loss focus.
this works great as a spell check but then I get the mesage box that spell check is complete.
How do I stop this box from occuring?
We need to enter the string INCL as a data value in one of our tables. When we try to exit the field, Access keeps changing it to INCLUDE. This occurs whether the value is entered via a form or directly in the table. I assume it is doing some type of autocorrect based on th spelling. There is no VBA code associated with this field.
Is there some way to turn this off?
When I try to do a spell check in a Form by pressing F7 I receive this error:
Can't start the spelling checker because it isn't installed.
How do I get it installed?
Thanks!
How do you make the spell checker not cycle through all your records when you run it? As it is right now, when a user tries to spell check their entry into the summary block of my form it automatically starts with the first record in the database and goes from there.
This is in Access2003 BTW.
I have 15 fields beginning with the word Comment. (i.e. comment, comment1, comment2 etc)
What Im trying to do is create a spellcheck command button that will only check these fields and only on the current record.
I've managed to find this piece of code to do the actual check:
With Me.FIELDNAME
.SetFocus
.SelStart = 0
.SelLength = Len(Me.FIELDNAME)
End With
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSpelling
Question is, how do I get this piece of code to loop through any field beginning with the word 'comment' and check their spelling?!
Any help would be much appreciated
I have a subform in datasheet view. I would like to put a button on the mainfor that checks all the subform records for spelling mistakes. Is this possible?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a Access 2010 database running in runtime. What options do I have for spell check? I can bind to a 2010 Word spell check (if it is installed), but could I do a late bind to utilise any other office spell check? Tried to use a .net spell checker dll and get access to call out the text and get returned the errors? Not sure what options I have really...
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi everyone and many thanks in advance.
I have configured my Access 2007 DB/app to hide the default ribbons and Options settings so that end-users cannot change the config or perform tasks that would jeopardize the integrity of the data. One of the other requirements on this project is to allow the end-user to launch the Spell Check feature.
It was simple enough to launch Spell Check from a button on a form. The problem lies in that the Spell Check feature has an "Options" button that serves as a point of entry to the Access Options that I'm trying to prevent the user from seeing.
Can anyone tell me how to hide or disable the Options button in Spell Check? I fear that this is not possible and I will have to choose between Spell Check and ensuring data integrity.
Many thanks,
Dominick:confused:
When distributing a program using 2010 runtime, I find that the spell check doesn't work. Is there a spell-check .dll or is there anyway I can get a spell checker?I have several memo fields with long report-type data entry which is being keyed by mutants. Spell checking is essential to get an intelligible report.
View 1 Replies View RelatedIf you look at the attachment in access settings it says it is set how to auto correct and "INDICATE SPELLING".
in my forms/tables/queries... it will not bring up spelling mistakes or the sort.
i'm trying to make a report to print checks
how do i make a query that outputs numbers spelled out??
please help
How do I suppress the numerical values from being displayed on the "yes/no" check boxes when a user clicks directly in the field, instead of clicking the arrowhead as they should?
View 3 Replies View RelatedIm tinkering with a new form for data input..
We use 2 different forms for employees based on status. Pending, and active. Staff members should not be able to be set to active unless all the fields on the Pending form are completed. Is there anyway I can check to make sure the form is completely filled in before allowing a status change to Active?
Hi firstly I want to say I am not a programmer or anything like that, I know enough about Access to get me by with simple things but after that i get a little stuck so please dont baffle me with loads of technical coding terms :D
Ok..I have a database with a form where the users enter a subject and description. I have a spell checker running on these 2 fields which works fine up to a certain point. If the users goes in, adds a new record, tabs off the field, the spell checker runs, etc then it works fine. If the user then creates a new record and it picks up a spelling mistake in the new record it jumps back to the previous record that was created and spell checks that again.
If you close the form and open it again before creating the second record it is fine. Could anyone possible shed any light on the situation? Below is the code that I am using (found it on the internet somewhere)
Private Sub Description_AfterUpdate()
'If the textbox contains data run the
'Spell Checker after data is entered.
If Len(Me!Description & "") > 0 Then
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSpelling
Else
Exit Sub
End If
End Sub
Private Sub Description_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
End Sub
Private Sub Subject_AfterUpdate()
'If the textbox contains data run the
'Spell Checker after data is entered.
If Len(Me!Subject & "") > 0 Then
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSpelling
Else
Exit Sub
End If
End Sub
I have 2 tables:
-tblServices
-tblPricesPeriods
Each of the tables has fields for:
-StartDate
-EndDate
The logic behind the database is that each service is contracted for certain period, from StartDate until EndDate (if EndDate is not given - null - it means it is a permanent contract). For each service, we need to input prices. As prices may change during time, we may have different prices records for a service - we need to have the service period broken down into subperiods with different prices. So we need StartDate and EndDate for each period for which particular prices are valid (again, if EndDate is not given - null - it means the prices are valid "forever" into the future from the StartDate).
My problem is: I want to have a check that would return the number of services which period (tblServices) is not fully reflected in the prices periods (tblPricesPeriods). Those would be for example:
-gaps between subperiods (subperiod1 finishing 30.09.2014 and subperiod 2 starting 3.10.2014)
-service period (tblServices) limited by EndDate (not null), while prices period for this service (tblPricesPeriods) having null as EndDate
-start date for service (tblServices) earlier than earliest start date for prices periods for this service (tblPricesPeriods)
-...
Preferably, I'd like to use a normal query for that (or set of queries), but I'm opened to other options.
I'm trying to get a spell check to work on a text box on a form. i've got it popping the spell check window after the box has been updated but i'd prefer it to just highlight the errors in red, rather than pop the spell check box. another problem i'm having is when it's finished spell checking the box it moves the form back to the first record. this is the code i'm using.
Code:
Private Sub txt_notes_AfterUpdate()
If Len(Me!txt_notes & "") > 0 Then
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSpelling
DoCmd.SetWarnings True
Else
Exit Sub
End If
End Sub
I have a repair database which I'm working on. On the main WIP form there is a subform stating the faults which have been logged against that unit. The unit can be scrapped at any time by hitting the SCRAP button, but if the unit has had it's faults successfully repaired, then it can then be FINALISED which means it can be shipped to the customer.
I need to be able to check the records in the subform, to look for faults which have not been repaired. When they are repaired, the text "PASS" will be present in the TEST_RESULT field. I want to be able to check the TEST_RESULT field for each fault to ensure they are all a PASS before I allow the unit to be FINALISED. Any ideas how I can do this? Or am I taking the wrong approach?
Thanks,
Gareth
basically am creating a booking system, i have a add a room form. my form should check whether i already have a room number in my table, which works when the form is filled in. however when my form is null, then i press add new room button, i get this error rather than " please fill your form in"
Error: runtime error '3075' syntax error (missing operator) in query expression 'Room Number ='.
room number is a number field, integer but has primary key. i cant keep autonumber, as my requirement is to add new room number, but the roomnumber has to be unique.
here is the dlookup;
If DLookup("RoomNumber", "tblRooms", "RoomNumber = " & Forms!RoomPackages!txtRoomNumber) > 0 Then
MsgBox "This number already exists."
Else
p.s it unbound form
how can i make a image appear in my form when there is a check in the check box from the table?
View 14 Replies View RelatedI am trying create some code that checks if the contents of the status field in a table is "Authorised" where the ID = something specific for multiple records.

I'm in need a of a check-in/check-out application for my company. We have about 550-600 employees at any given time and our turnover is about 20-30% per year. Our check-in/check-out process requires our employees to personally visit between 30-40 areas in our company (personnel, safety, credentials, parking, insurance, etc) within the first month of employment. This is currently done manually and is a huge drain on labor, especially when check-in sheets are lost, misplaced or, in some cases, forged.
I'm looking to build a database that would be intranet based, password secure (by check-in area) that would allow the new employee to present at a particular check-in, check-out site, complete that portion of the check-in/out process and then allow the person responsible for the check-in/out to enter the status into the database. At any point in the process, I would want to know the status of the person checking in/out (how long they've been checking in/out and what portion of the process have they completed).
Can this be done in ACCESS?
Thanks
Does anyone know or have an example of how to use check box's to filter out things in a form. What I want to do here is I have like 5 different locations and I want to be able to choose which of those location, whether it be one or more checked at a time and then have whatever those check boxes are checked to be filtered out.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHello,
I have a continious form containing data from the table "tblToernament".
On that form there is a combobox containing teams that are stores in the table "tblTeams".
The table looks like this:
ID | TeamName
1 | Team01
2 | Team02
3 | Team03
4 | Team04
When I select, for example, Team02 in the combobox I want that value on, after I selected it from the combo NOT to be in the combobox.
Can anybody please help me on this?
Hello, im making a database for a charity as part of my work experience and id just like someone to check over it for me. If you see any issues please let me know. Im already aware of changing text PK's to autonumber, this is a prototype so im not going to change the PK's at the min.
Any ideas, or ways to improve it?

Hey guys..
I was working on my project again as usual, which is about transaction of cars coming in and going out (car pool system), So i created a table then a form for this. In the table, i put the option of 'Yes/No'. So, for the form, i want to create a search system which will include a search system.
My Idea:
I want to make a check box, as a search system, so when it is checked and clicked on a command button, it searches for all records with 'Yes'. and if not checked, and clicked on command button, then it searches for all records with 'No'.
Now i did my research, on google and stuff also in the access help but it ddnt help much.
To be honest with you guys, i dont know much of visual basic writing, but i do understand most of it. ( you know, when you understand one language but can speak it?? same way :o ).
So i would request some one to give me instructions on this one. It would really be appriciated.
thanks a million !
Do check boxes have to be bound to be able to save them in your forms? In other words, when you check the box and click save, does the check box have to be bound so that the check mark can be saved? Thanks.
