I have a mainform which contains "Holder Information (name,address,d ob etc)
and within this mainform a subform called "LicenseInforma tion" (licensetype,pu rchasedate,amou nt etc)

When user search the holder information in mainform, he can see his personal info in mainform and license info in subform.

What I want is: When the user click the command button "Add license info",
the user should be able to write into the grid shown in the subform.(still the personal info shd be shown in mainform)

OR is there any other way to do this??
Please help..I am a novice to VBA...

Hi there, I have a form to organize bottles in mind, but am unsure if it will work. Here's some background info: Mainform = frmProduct, which contains fields for pricing, status, etc. of complete bottles, as well as an image control for a thumbnail of a complete product (bottle + cap). The mainform has 2 subforms that must be visible and side-by-side:

I have built a database with a <Mainform> and a <Subform>. My problem is twofold. 1. My subform is set as a continuos form with AllowAddiotions set to NO (ie. a list of Issues to the client on the mainform) 2. To add new issues, a button is used and a pop-up form is used to add an issue with more detail than what's available on the subform. 3. On accepting the new Issue from the pop-up the pop-up closes and you are returned to the...

Greetings. I have a Mainform with a subform. The Mainform has single record format and subform has continuous form format. When the Mainform opens, I force allowadditions and allowedits to FALSE (for both the Mainform and Subform). No problem there. However, when I click on the navigation control of the subform to move to the next record in the subform, the AllowAdditions and AllowEdits changes to TRUE. Not good. I set...

I'm really not sure how to go about this in Access. What I've created is a table for each location. Those tables are identical in format but different in information. The tables are named after key points such as the store number and the store ID. The fields of those tables are generic fields such as sales per day, bank deposit and what not. The first field for each store table is the date and I've set that as the primary key as one...

Hello all, I do not know if this question is regarding table design, queries, or programming. Below, I have given a table design using Access 2003. Fields 'Product' and 'Color' are primary keys and 'Active' is a Boolean data type. What I am trying to accomplish is having only one record selected active out of the 'Product' field for each type. If possible, have the user be able to do this task while viewing the data within a...

Hi All, I have a mainform with a subform in which I show some task summary data. On the mainform I have a number of unbound controls that reflect values relevant to each task in the subform. The unbound controls are populated in the subform's OnCurrent even from a number of different tables related to the records in tbl_tasks, which is the recordset displayed in the subform.

I hope this is an easy question for someone out there. In Access 2000…I have a MainForm with a tab control (MAIN TABS) with 7 tabs. Within each tab is a SubForm. Within each SubForm is a tab control (TabCtl0) with 2-6 tabs. Within each TabCtl0, each tab contains a SubSubForm. Each record in the MainForm has an ID Number; the SubForms are bound to that ID Number, and the SubSubForms are bound to that ID Number in the SubForms. In order...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

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,...
