Is this possible? - update a true/false field using listbox

50 New Member
Hi experts, I'm hoping you can help me with this.. I have recently found out how to use the INSERT INTO statement to add multiple records from a listbox to a table, I now need to UPDATE records in another table using a multi-select listbox.

Problem:

I want to present a template of working hours of staff by showing 48 x 30minute intervals, each as a row in a listbox. My idea is that if the person usually works 9am till 5pm, there is a yes / no in the relevant field in the table. I then want the working hours to be modified in the form of a listbox where when loaded it shows the 9-5 rows selected, and it can be modified by selecting more rows / deselecting rows, then saved and the table updated.

...I know how to do it with check / option boxes and i'm sure it can be done with multiselect list boxes but I just don't know how?

Hope you can help, OllyJ

All sorted at last... thank you very much for your help Nico.

I found a way around problem1 and problem2 was sorted by using your code... here is the final code i used

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. Private Sub Command10_Click()
  2.  
  3. CurrentDb.Execute ("UPDATE [Table1] SET [DaysStandard] = NO")
  4.  
  5. Dim varItm
  6.  
  7. For Each varItm In Me.List6.ItemsSelected
  8. CurrentDb.Execute ("UPDATE [Table1] SET [DaysStandard] = Yes WHERE [Sequence] =" & Me.List6.Column(2, varItm))
  9.  
  10. Next
  11. Me.List6.Requery
  12.  
  13.  
  14. End Sub
Many thanks.

I need the code to update the database when Save is clicked and a text field has changed. This should be very easy since I used Microsoft's wizards for the OleDBAdapter and OleDBConnection, and DataSet; and all I'm doing is showing one record in text fields, allowing the user to modify the text fields, and then updating the database again when the user clicks the Save button. The fields already show the correct data record since I have...

I have a listbox that gets populated in code by a reader result set from a stored proc on SQL Server 2005. In building this I created a set of test rows in the DB and the code runs fine and populates the box. Next I added functionality to add data. This adds data to the DB and then forces the listbox to refresh by clearing it's contents and then re-running the populate code. However, when I add an item and do the refresh, the listbox...

Ok. I'm writing and deleting to an xml file using a dataset. I have a function in my codebehind page that binds a listbox to the dataset that performs the writes/deletes. Everything seems to be working fine except, I cannot get the listbox to update after the xml file is written to. I've tried to rebind the listbox and a bunch of other things; nothing seems to work. I'm sure this is simple fix but, I cannot seem to figure it out. I...

Hi All, I am using a FormView control. The allows me to update records in the database. However, when a database field is null I can not update the field on the form. It works fine when the field is not a null value. I am not using any code behind (C#) to bind the data or manipulate the data. I have read that when there is a null value in the database that there is no record in the "dataset". Can anyone show me how to bind a value in the...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
