I have a Form in Access table and an Attachment field and it is published in sharepoint. Attachement field is working fine in the table. But its disabled in the form.
When i Click the attachment button, window pops up but the add, update buttons are disabled ??
I found the problem. I have disabled the button in script. Enabled it now
maybe it is late to reply , but i have faced the same with my forms , i have foud out the reason for this , it is the record source , if you make the form source as sql you will face the problem of disabled buttons , you have to make the form tecord source is the table itself not a sql code .

I have an Access 2016 application that opens a pop-up form when user double-clicks on a record in a datasheet form. That's meant to be a 'detail form' showing all fields in record (datasheet shows only a few). Now, while editing data on popup form, I switch to another app (say Notepad) to copy some text from there or simply check some other thing. I then switch back to Access app by applying Alt-Tab. However, now focus is over datasheet form, instead of pop up form it was when I first switched to Notepad.
Can anyone please help on understanding why this happens? Ultimately I want to return focus over popup form whenever I switch back from any other app by using Alt-Tab, i.e., maybe by detecting in VBA when Access application gets focus back so I can set focus on desired form. I've read some suggestions about using some Windows API function but no detailed examples on that.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
I have created a tabbed main form with sub forms. I set one of the tabs visibility properties to invisible and use a command button to open said form. When I open the subform with command button and enter data, the data does not save to the form but does save to the table. The reason I am using this method is that the sub form is a log and it is easier for the users. The Master Child fields are correct and so are the table relations. Can anyone shed some light on this? Thank you is advance for any assistance. Oh and I am using 2016
Not sure if it's the issue or not but consider looking at the Forms Property Sheet and double check that you have Data Entry set to "No" and all the "Allow" properties set to yes.
I'm working on creating an Outlook email template that will contain a Form with some fields like name, no, date, price and these fields will be mandatory so validation is required. I know how to create an Outlook Email Message Template using the Outlook Tools, but I want to know how to create a form with some fields and validation.
Customize the ribbon in outlook to show developer ribbon.
Then click "design a form". Choose your template, or another.
In the field chooser, click New.... Create the field
Drag the field into the template. Right click the dragged in field and click properties. Click the validation tab and take it from there
I know this is an old topic. Tried to do this, but can't get the field to appear in the body of the email. It keeps showing up to the left of the message, but is not include in the boxy when it is delivered. TIA!
For security reasons, Outlook will not run any script or submit HTML forms in the messages it displays.
I have an Access form in which I am unsuccessful in formatting the record to be in hyperlink format.
The form is in datasheet-view format, which contains records with a link to a website. The form’s datasource is a select-query. The hyperlink is created with the following expression, which concantenates text and data, in order create a web link :
"#http://www.ups.com/WebTracking/processInputRequest?sort_by=status&tracknums_displayed=1&TypeOfInquiryNumber=T&loc=en_us&InquiryNumber1=" & [T].[tracking_number] & "&track.x=0&track.y=0#"
I tried setting the property-sheet format field to “hyperlink” , but it automatically changes to “hy"perli"n\k”, in both the query-design view, and form-design-view.
please advise what I need to do in order to have the form output the records in hyperlink format, so I can just click on the website link and it will open up in a web browser
thanks very much in advance,
Nathaniel, Access 2007
You can use the IsHyperlink property for the textbox (format tab) , once again, these are a nuisance to edit. If you create a form based on a table with a hyperlink field, the control created for the hyperlink field will be set up as a link.
More on IsHyperlink: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa196153(office.11).aspx
Paste something like this into the textbox to see it working:
clickme#http://www.ups.com/WebTracking/processInputRequest?sort_by=status&tracknums_displayed=1&TypeOfInquiryNumber=T&loc=en_us&InquiryNumber1=123456&track.x=0&track.y=0#
I hope someone can help me out, or at least help figure out a workaround.
I'm using Access 2007's split form feature, and have the code below run on the Form_Open event, as well as after two button_click events. The code works fine when run after the button_click events, but when it runs on the form_open event, it causes problems.
If form is opened and user enters text in the first field, he/she cannot use Tab or mouse to select the next form field. The user is stuck on the first form field until pressing Esc to cancel the data entry. In order to successfully enter data in the first form field when the form is opened, a user must first select another form field, then re-select the first form field then enter text in first form field. After this nonsense, the user CAN select next form field with Tab or mouse. This must be performed once every time the form is launched. The same VBA code on the button_click events works fine.
Noteworthy: When the form is first opened, NONE of the form fields in the datasheet section of the form appear 'Selected'. When a user begins to enter data in the first form field, the 'new record' marker (*) moves to the second row as it should, but the first row does not show the data being input. This behavior is odd.
After performing the clear field, click another field, click back to first field workaround described above, the datasheet shows properly selected fields and Data as it is input.
Any ideas? Is this a bug? Is there an easy workaround, such as performing the field-select workaround via VBA at form open?
Any help is MUCH appreciated.
Code:
DoCmd.ApplyFilter , "([Contractor].[CheckOutStamp] Is Null)"
DoCmd.GoToRecord , "", acNewRec

Some thoughts:
Try moving it from OnOpen to OnLoad. The events in OnOpen can happen before the data is actually loaded, where as OnLoad happens after that is already done.
Also, you might want to just set the form's Filter property to [Contractor].[CheckOutStamp] Is Null and set the FilterOn to Yes, and set the form to DataEntry, which means it defaults to a new record upon open, and doesn't load any of the older records. Once it's open, you can change the form's edit/add mode to whatever you like.
