Hi guys i have a form with 3 tabs in it and every tab is supposed to update different table, can anyone tell how to do it with a button for every tab? Pretty much like a form built with HTML?
Access forms generally use bound data controls, which are quite different from HTML forms. If you want to use bound controls, place a sub-form on each tabsheet. Set the record source for each subform to the table you want to update. Then drop some fields from the table onto the subform.
If you want to use unbound controls, arrange some controls each tab as desired. At the bottom of each tab, place a button labeled Submit. In the CLICK event handler for each button, write code that does one of these two things:
Gather the values together, create an INSERT or UPDATE statement as appropriate, and have the database execute it with DoCmd.RunSQL.
or
Create an ADO or DAO recordset object for the row you wish to update or add and then write your values into the fields for that recordset.

For a simple borrowed item database, I am trying to link two forms together via a button 'Return'
However, the button does not apply a filter to the correct Item.
In the main menu their is a subform that shows the list of borrowed item via a Query. The list of borrowed Items is a continuous form with the button 'return'
The following event is used when the button is clicked:
OpenForm
form nameReturn
View Form
Data mode Edit
window mode Normal
searchforrecord
object type form
object name return
record First
Where condition = ="[Item_ID]="&[Item_ID]
In that situation access does not apply a filter, after some tutorials I discovered another methode and tested it.
OpenForm
form nameReturn
View Form
Where condition = ="[Item_ID]="&[Item_ID]
Data mode Edit
window mode Normal
in that situation a filter is applied but it does not find any records. Could anyone help in what i did wrong to find link the two forms that use the same table?
I am working on ADF application.
I have table and I need to insert data into it cell by cell and column by column in order.
For example:
on start, all cells should be disables except only one cell (the first cell at YearworkDegree column)
if user entered value for that cell it should open below cell.. etc
after finishing YearWorkDegree column it should open first cell from the second column MidtermDegree and so on.
Is there a feature in ADF I can use in that case, or should I think in JavaScript to handle that case.
You can set the properties of one field to be dependent on the other and set partial page refresh between the two - so when you change the value in the first - the second on becomes enabled.
That being said - doing this is going to cause a lot of chattiness to the backend server (on each field change).
So you basically need something like tab navigation between cells but in a different order (downwards). There is no integrated functionality for this in ADF, you have to do it by yourself by writing a custom JS handler.
Please check this example
You can then modify it for your needs (making only the current cell enabled for editing, etc).
I have created a form with a View as recordsource, this view combines 1 table and another view (with 2 tables in it).
When the checkbox is clicked a validation happens in the Access code that checks if the records checkbox may be updated, if this is not the case then the checkbox value should change back to 0/false.
First I tried to do this simply in the click event of the checkbox and then setting the checkbox value = false when it does not validate. This however gives a write conflict. Next I tried it with a Me.Dirty = false in front of it, this also doesn't help (still getting the write conflict). The checkbox.undo gives the same result.
Then I thought to do it in the before update and use a simple cancel=true, this however causes the focus not to change (it keeps the focus on the same record and never moves from it).
The Timestamp is usually what I use to ignore write conflict messages, I included the timestamp of the main table but this doesn't work (probably because the view is multiple-table based).
Some additional info:
The view is created in the SQL server and is linked to Access
The primary keys of the view (so it is editable) are set by executing a CREATE UNIQUE INDEX statement
Any ideas how I can get this to work?
Fixed it by using a button to set the checkbox bound field to checked/unchecked and making the checkbox itself invisible. This seems to work (better).
I've built a simple master - detail form consisting of a form for the master element and table for the details.
In the toolbar of panel collection around the table I placed a CreateInsert button which ads a row to the table. My problem is that I this row is invisible until after I move my cursor over to the table and scroll down. Then it appears.
Before that a small scrollbar appear after pressing the button which can't be pressed.
Related to this is the problem when I press the delete button in the details, the table gets cut in half. I suspect these two problems are related.
This is my table:
This is after I press CreateInsert. The table should add another row below this one, and it does, but it is not visible until after I scroll. This happens only for the first row.
I am using JDeveloper 12c with Oracle ADF Fusion Web Applications.
This is a late answer I know , but try to programmatically refresh the PanelCollection and its container.
AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance()
.addPartialTarget (getThePanelCollection());
AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance()
.addPartialTarget (getThePanelCollectioncontainerLayout());
I tried this myself and it solved the problem after trying many other solutions.
Did u check with the Size.?
Try giving Styles for Table and Panel Collection "StyleClass=AFStretchWidth"
Add Execute in binding side of the jspx page for the particular table
Add invoke action for the execute in executables
Change the properties to render model in refresh condition of the invoke action
It will automatically make the master table to trigger the new values
Thanks
I am trying to create a content type (say Meter). Each Meter consists of a "Meter Reading". This meter reading content contains three fields, say title, date range and usage. I have a Panel page where I display all the Meter Readings related to a parent Meter. I have displayed the Meter Readings in a tabular format.
I want the user to be able to add new Meter Readings without going to the default Meter Readings creation page. Rather than the default form kind of page, the user should be able to enter the data in the table view provided and it should be automatically saved into the project itself.
So, I want the functionality to be like:-
Display all the meter readings with two links, i.e., Edit and Delete,
When the user clicks on Edit link, the meter reading row should become editable and the user should be able to make the changes inline in the same table,
In the footer there should be a link for adding a new meter reading and when the user clicks on it, a new blank row should be added dynamically to the table and the user should be able to make a new entry into it.
Is there a module in Drupal 7 for doing so?? I have already tried out several modules for this such as SlickGrid, jQGrid and jEditable
Any help would be great. Thanks in advance.
Am afraid am not aware about a module that does all that out of the box. But in case you carry on with custom coding you can have a look at the following:
Edit and Delete options per row in views
Use Views Megarow. For working example you can have a look at how its used in commerce backoffice. Please note that you need to write the form structure ( FORM api ) for the quick edit form in a custom module. The Views Megarow takes care of ajax populating the edit form, its submission in client side, and refreshing the original row after the response from server.
When the user clicks on Edit link, the meter reading row should become editable and the user should be able to make the changes inline
in the same table.
Views Megarow doesn't support inline editing. But another module as suggested by #nmc does it. Its editablefields. But it doesn't have any edit/delete button. You click on the text directly ( provided user has appropriate permission to edit the field data ) in view.
In case you are going to use editablefields, then you would have to add another delete button in view, which one confirmation would redirect to the page that triggered delete action.
Since delete button would redirect to a default confirmation page, you may want to code a custom delete action which may override this.
In the footer there should be a link for adding a new meter reading and when the user clicks on it, a new blank row should be
added dynamically to the table and the user should be able to make a
new entry into it.
I suggest creating a small ajax form. Create a "Add Meter Reading" button in it, which on submission would create a meter reading node in the server. The ajax form should have parent information in a hidden field ( i.e. the Meter id). The ajax response for this form could be another script to load/refresh the view on client side.
Client side code to refresh the view can be found in Views Autorefresh submodule in Views Hacks.
If using views megarow you would have to add another jquery function on ajax response after view is refreshed - Trigger edit button.
Otherwise you may have to add some classes or theme to newly created rows in view to bring them to focus.
It is important that the entire views refreshes, so that drupal behaviours are attached to the newly created entry in table.
I don't know if there is one module which will meet all your needs but you may be able to use some in combination.
Views Bulk Operations (VBO) - has Drupal 7 support
This module augments Views by allowing bulk operations to be executed
on the displayed rows. It does so by showing a checkbox in front of
each node, and adding a select box containing operations that can be
applied. Drupal Core or Rules actions can be used.
editablefields - Drupal 7 version in dev
This module allows CCK fields to be edited on a node's display (e.g.
at node/123), not just on the node edit pages (e.g. node/123/edit). It
also works within views etc. Anywhere a 'formatter' can be selected,
you can select editable (or click to edit).
editview - no Drupal 7 support yet but I thought I would mention it in case you're able to adapt the code yourself
Editview is a plugin for the Views module. It allows you to create a
view in which the nodes are editable, and new nodes can be created.
