Basically, I'm having issues running reports with parameter queries from subforms within a navigation form, that's within a larger navigation form.

    Synchronizing two subforms

    Needed two subforms synchronized, one in datasheet view and the other as a detail subform of the focused record on the datasheet. So, I followed the directions at this site: http://www.fmsinc.com/MicrosoftAccess/Forms/Synchronize/LinkedSubforms.asp They synchro works great in existing...

    suggestions for tracking mailings...

    Yes, I meant who has had a letter actually sent to them... I just need to figure out the best way to mark anyone who came up in the parameter query with receiving that mailing. I probably also want to tie this action to the export of the mailing list to excel to save steps and also prevent the...

    suggestions for tracking mailings...

    Hi, I need some suggestions on design/setup for tracking mailings. My DB has 'tblContacts,' 'tblLocation,' and 'tblTreeWork' tables. We are creating a letter to tell the Contact/homeowner (mailed to the 'ContactAddress') that LocationXYZ ('LocationAddress') is having TreeWorkXYZ done to it...

    if [combobox] is empty then msgbox - not working

    Actually, that was returning all records regardless of whether I selected a zip code. So, now I'm using: Between Nz([Forms]![frmReportGenerator]![cbozip],"") And Nz([Forms]![frmReportGenerator]![cbozip],"ZZZZZZ")

    Adding "All" to a SELECT DISTINCT combobox

    Nope, still no changes in the cboZip after making those changes... Do I need to change something with the row source of the cboZip? I noticed that I couldn't get it to SELECT DISTINCT until I changed it in the vba and the row source...

    Adding "All" to a SELECT DISTINCT combobox

    I'd like for the 'All' selection to be a the top of the list of zip codes, and if the user selects it, then selects the report they want to run, that all zip codes under the cboDate will be included in the report. Tried to put the above code in, but the 'All' selection didn't show up anywhere.

    Adding "All" to a SELECT DISTINCT combobox

    I have been trying to set up two cascading combo boxes. cboDate feeds---> cboZip My last step is to put an option in the cboZip (the child cbo) an '(All)' option so users can select all zip codes for that date if they want. My VBA in the After Update event for cboDate is: Private Sub...

    error message with dependent combo boxes

    Hi, So I followed Example 2: A Single Row Source Table from: http://www.fontstuff.com/access/acctut10.htm It seems to be working now, except it looks like it's returning ALL records in the cbo, not unique records. I changed it to 'select distinct' for cboZip, yet I'm still getting duplicate zip...

    error message with dependent combo boxes

    Well, I'd put the make table query there to be able to limit the zip codes for cbozip to pull data from, and I was having major issues getting it to work any other way. Since, I need the data stored or saved somewhere long enough for the user to select the other combo boxes on the page and have...

    Change font color of one datasheet column?

    How do I conditional format an entire column that's not necessiarly 'conditioned' to what text is in the column? I don't need it to specify what is 'between,' 'greater than,' 'equal to,' etc. I just need the whole column to color. Is there a way to do this short of making a condition for each...

    Change font color of one datasheet column?

    Hi, I have a datasheet which features a few text boxes displaying additional column info from a combo box's select query; i.e. the control source is "=[FundingIDFK].[column](2)", etc. Since this column is not an editable field, I'd like to make the text grey instead of black (as in the rest of...

    basing sequential combo boxes

    I have a form in which I'd like 3 combo boxes to be based of one-another. My 3 combo boxes are: cboFunding--> primary combo box cboDate-->based off of cboFunding, this box may contain "dates" or "seasons"; i.e. it's not strictly a 'date' box with a date picker, it's a text box. cboZip-->based...
