I want to use SQL to populate a variable that is used elsewhere in my code. none of the various methods I have tried work so I was wondering if this is possible in the first place and if it is, what is the syntax/structure of the code? Dim DeptOrder As String DeptOrder.DoCmd.RunSQL SQLText &...

Many thanks Lagbolt Thanks Lagbolt - works a treat. It took me a couple of days to work this out as I was modifying a whole host of other things at the same time, most of which didn't work first time out!:) BTW, is this you: Lag screw, lag bolt or coach screw refers to a large wood screw...

pharison, Glad it all worked out. As far as I can tell (I really am an amateur!) your code was ok. My only tip when weird things happen is to compact and repair. If they persist, create a new item and migrate the controls across 1 at a time until the problem re-appears or try commenting out...

I have a combobox that may be used a number of times. It is populated by a query in VBA using rowsource = SQLText & WClause etc which sorts it in a particular fashion. Currently, when a user clicks the drop down list, the last selected record is at the top of the list and if the user wants to...

Have you tried using the movesize in the on open event? You can use this to position a form relative to the top and left of the screen.

Thanks RG. I have seen that page before but didn't twig that my problem lay in the referencing. I'm sure that I wil be able to get it going tomorrow when back at the office. Regards,

Just a thought now that your problem is solved. If you need this data separately, why don't you have a dedicated memo field for whatever is placed in the last line/sentence? This would give you plenty of flexibility to use it separately or concatenate it with the rest of the memo if needed...

I have an SQL query that filters a subform based on the selected item in an option frame that runs on the after update event of the option frame. Forms!fsubPrjPersonnel.RecordSource = SQLText & WClauseWhen I try this out, I get the following error message: I then ran the following snippet and...

Thanks for the response Sam. I tried various versions of defining variables and trying to make them = sqltext so that I could then set the text box to that value but couldn't get the hang of it. I'm guessing this can be done and will be simple, I just can't figure it. Regards,

I know how to do this with a combo box. After defining the SQLtext and WClause something like: with me.cbocombobox ____.rowsource = SQLtext & Wclause ____.requery end with How do I (can I?) use the SQL in VBA to populate a text box in a similar manner? I have tried various versions of...

I want to filter a form based on the many side of a 1 to many relationship to the records on the form The form shows projects which can be associated with more than one asset. There is a junction table to hold the asset assignments with a many to 1 relationship to the project details table...

Like MrsGorrilla, my children are still young and so the jury is still out on my parenting skills. However, like her, I have been immensely gratified by the politeness shown by the children, with unforced 'Please' & 'Thank yous' etc. This is mostly down to passive modeling which is why we also...

Thanks Pat, I did create a form in pivot table view which I then inserted into the report. The data was correct but I was unable to control the formatting, remove the '+' and '-' expand/collapse buttons etc. If I could somehow strip out the pivoted data and drop it into a subreport that I...

Can I use SQL to populate a text box in a report? The source table has 1 field for employees assigned to projects, and I want the report to show employees for each project broken down into the sections they work in. The desired result would look something like this: Project XXXXXX...

Hi Bee, I think there are a number of threads on this subject or very similar problems and a few different solutions. Search for 'flickering' and variations on that theme. In my case, the flickering was related to the labels of a control. I deleted some 'mouse move' event code. From memory, I...

Bump Any hints at all welcome :D

Lovely. Nice to hear that she likes you again. This is all future for me as I have 3 under 4 who haven't learnt that dadies can be a pain yet. The reason I work in Arabia is that I do 40 hours with 15 minutes comutine each day (yes, there & back!) that's about 20 hours more than I would have...

Glad to help when I can :)

How do I do this? Reviving an old thread here: I would like to insert a pivot table, but I cannot see how/where to do it. Any pointers? Edit, A bit of background to clarify what I am attempting to do. I have a fairly simple table with fields for Personnel, Project & Section. I was able to...
