Parent Form - frmMain

code is where Vista throws up the following error:

Hi eschloss,
to refer to a control on a subform, use syntax like this when you are
clicking a control on the main form-->
Me.NameOfSubformControl.Form.NameOfControl

The snippet you posted-->
("[Forms]![frmMain].[Main_Subform].[form].[Schedules_Subform].[form].[QC_Names_Combo]")
has too many parts to it.

If the subform is on the main form and the code is run by clicking a control
on the main form, you can just use Me
instead of [Forms]![frmMain]


Note: the subform control is on the main form and the subform is inside the
subform control.
To get the name of the subform control, click once on the subform control -
you will be able to see the handles around the subform control.

Replace the obvious with your control names.

The reference looks correct, though I'm inclined to use dot's only for
properties

[Forms]![frmMain]![Main_Subform].[form]![Schedules_Subform].[form]![QC_Names_Combo]

This would also be be the syntax you'd get if you enter the expression
builder in the criteria part of the query grid, doubleclick through
forms, loaded forms, main form, first subform, second subform and a
control on that second subform AND the same syntax you'll find for
instance at the bottom of http://www.mvps.org/access/forms/frm0031.htm

I'd try using that format/syntax both in the stored query and when
setting the parameter in code AND also add/define it as parameter in
the stored query (I thin you'll find the parameters dialogue on the
query meny, at the bottom?) - copy/paste the whole reference there
too, and specify data type.

As a test, I think I'd try testing whether it's got a value at that
point, for instance with a msgbox or debug.print

Debug.Print
[Forms]![frmMain]![Main_Subform].[form]![Schedules_Subform].[form]![QC_Names_Combo]

and check in the immediate pane (ctrl+g)

Sorry for the delayed response...I can only test this when I get off work on
my home Vista machine.

Thank you two for responding. I receive the same error in the same place
after I:

1. Changed the error line to
qdf.Parameters("[Forms]![frmMain]![Main_Subform].[form]![Schedules_Subform].[form]![QC_Names_Combo]") = Me!QC_Names_Combo

2. Copied/pasted
[Forms]![frmMain]![Main_Subform].[form]![Schedules_Subform].[form]![QC_Names_Combo] into the appropriate field criteria of my stored query.

3. Copied/pasted
[Forms]![frmMain]![Main_Subform].[form]![Schedules_Subform].[form]![QC_Names_Combo]
into the parameter section of my stored query and attached a Data Type of
"Text" to it.

4. Adding Debug.Print above the error line did not make it return a value in
the immediate window. However, while stepping through the code, when I hover
the mouse over "= Me!QC_Names_Combo", the correct value shows up.

Do any other possibilities come to mind?

Jeanette,

I thought it may have been this too when I was researching my problem. I
have tried changing data types but I still get the same error on the same
code line.

btw, the combobox value the code line error refers to should always have a
value in it, when I receive the error it does have a value. Also, this code
works as expected in WinXP, but not in Vista.

The reference looks correct, though I'm inclined to use dot's only
for properties

[Forms]![frmMain]![Main_Subform].[form]![Schedules_Subform].[form]![QC_Names_Combo]

This would also be be the syntax you'd get if you enter the
expression builder in the criteria part of the query grid,
doubleclick through forms, loaded forms, main form, first subform,
second subform and a control on that second subform AND the same
syntax you'll find for instance at the bottom of
http://www.mvps.org/access/forms/frm0031.htm

I'd try using that format/syntax both in the stored query and when
setting the parameter in code AND also add/define it as parameter in
the stored query (I thin you'll find the parameters dialogue on the
query meny, at the bottom?) - copy/paste the whole reference there
too, and specify data type.

As a test, I think I'd try testing whether it's got a value at that
point, for instance with a msgbox or debug.print

Debug.Print
[Forms]![frmMain]![Main_Subform].[form]![Schedules_Subform].[form]![QC_Names_Combo]

and check in the immediate pane (ctrl+g)
Click to expand...
Click to expand...

Re #4 - seems the control has a value when referenced through current
form, but not if referenced through the full path - strange.

Could it be some timing issues? You could also try removing the last
Form keyword, and see if that works (optional when referring to
controls, necessary when referring to properties), and since it is
text, remove the parameter declaration

[Forms]![frmMain]![Main_Subform].[form]![Schedules_Subform]![QC_Names_Combo]

But I don't know.

If the reference is correct, you could also try to resovle the
paremeters dynamic in stead of your more explicit resolving, i e

dim prm as dao.parameter
Set qdf = db.QueryDefs("qrySchedules_Add/Edit")
for each prm in qdf.Parameters
prm.value = eval(prm.name)
next prm

but I don't know whether it would matter. Sorry, I'm stumped.

Going back to your first post on this.
Looking at your code, I see a line that shouldn't compile -- >

*Me.Schedules_Subform.Form.QC_Names_Combo_AfterUpdate*

What happens when you do debug compile?

Jeanette,

I thought it may have been this too when I was researching my problem. I
have tried changing data types but I still get the same error on the same
code line.

btw, the combobox value the code line error refers to should always have a
value in it, when I receive the error it does have a value. Also, this
code
works as expected in WinXP, but not in Vista.

Thank you two for responding. I receive the same error in the same

1. Changed the error line to

2. Copied/pasted
[Forms]![frmMain]![Main_Subform].[form]![Schedules_Subform].[form]![QC_Names_Combo]

3. Copied/pasted
[Forms]![frmMain]![Main_Subform].[form]![Schedules_Subform].[form]![QC_Names_Combo]

4. Adding Debug.Print above the error line did not make it return a

Do any other possibilities come to mind?

THE VISTA GODS ARE APPEASED!!! Thank you! Resolving the parameters the way
you suggested is what did it. Is there any downfall to resolving all my
parameters this way instead (in other forms, etc)?

Another thought
what happens when you put -->

Debug.Print Me!QC_Names_Combo

here

Public Sub QC_Names_Combo_AfterUpdate()

Me.Parent!Current_Name_Text = Me!QC_Names_Combo.Value 'refreshes text box
with current combobox name

Debug.Print Me!QC_Names_Combo

What happens if there is no value for QC_Names_Combo?

Jeanette,

That line compiles without issues. When I step through the code, that line
directs me correctly to the AfterUpdate event and continues. I do not
remember where I picked up that method of calling events. I noticed it in
someone's response while researching another problem I had.

The reference looks correct, though I'm inclined to use dot's only for
properties

[Forms]![frmMain]![Main_Subform].[form]![Schedules_Subform].[form]![QC_Names_Combo]

This would also be be the syntax you'd get if you enter the expression
builder in the criteria part of the query grid, doubleclick through
forms, loaded forms, main form, first subform, second subform and a
control on that second subform AND the same syntax you'll find for
instance at the bottom of http://www.mvps.org/access/forms/frm0031.htm

I'd try using that format/syntax both in the stored query and when
setting the parameter in code AND also add/define it as parameter in
the stored query (I thin you'll find the parameters dialogue on the
query meny, at the bottom?) - copy/paste the whole reference there
too, and specify data type.

As a test, I think I'd try testing whether it's got a value at that
point, for instance with a msgbox or debug.print

Debug.Print
[Forms]![frmMain]![Main_Subform].[form]![Schedules_Subform].[form]![QC_Names_Combo]

The code for Add_Edit_Label_Click() takes care of ensuring QC_Names_Combo
always has a value in it. I believe setting the sourceobject automatically
refreshes QC_Names_Combo, just not selecting any of its available values.
The rest of the code for Add_Edit_Label_Click() takes care of that.

The way I have the date range setup, is that only days which have records
associated to them are selectable. So, there should always be available
values in QC_Names_Combo because a Name is required for all my records.

Another thought
what happens when you put -->

Debug.Print Me!QC_Names_Combo

here

Public Sub QC_Names_Combo_AfterUpdate()

Me.Parent!Current_Name_Text = Me!QC_Names_Combo.Value 'refreshes text box
with current combobox name

Debug.Print Me!QC_Names_Combo

What happens if there is no value for QC_Names_Combo?

Going back to your first post on this.
Looking at your code, I see a line that shouldn't compile -- >

*Me.Schedules_Subform.Form.QC_Names_Combo_AfterUpdate*

What happens when you do debug compile?


Code behind my Form:
**********************************************************
Private Sub Add_Edit_Label_Click()
Me!Schedules_Subform.SourceObject = "frmSchedules_Add/Edit"

If IsNull(Me!Current_Name_Text) Then
Me.Schedules_Subform.Form.QC_Names_Combo.Value =
Me.Schedules_Subform.Form.QC_Names_Combo.ItemData(0)
Else
Me.Schedules_Subform.Form.QC_Names_Combo.Value = Me!Current_Name_Text
End If

Me.Schedules_Subform.Form.QC_Names_Combo_AfterUpdate
End Sub
**********************************************************

Jeanette,

I thought it may have been this too when I was researching my problem. I
have tried changing data types but I still get the same error on the same
code line.

btw, the combobox value the code line error refers to should always have
a
value in it, when I receive the error it does have a value. Also, this
code
works as expected in WinXP, but not in Vista.

Sorry for the delayed response...I can only test this when I get off
work
on
my home Vista machine.

Thank you two for responding. I receive the same error in the same
place
after I:

1. Changed the error line to
qdf.Parameters("[Forms]![frmMain]![Main_Subform].[form]![Schedules_Subform].[form]![QC_Names_Combo]")
= Me!QC_Names_Combo

2. Copied/pasted
[Forms]![frmMain]![Main_Subform].[form]![Schedules_Subform].[form]![QC_Names_Combo]
into the appropriate field criteria of my stored query.

3. Copied/pasted
[Forms]![frmMain]![Main_Subform].[form]![Schedules_Subform].[form]![QC_Names_Combo]
into the parameter section of my stored query and attached a Data Type
of
"Text" to it.

4. Adding Debug.Print above the error line did not make it return a
value
in
the immediate window. However, while stepping through the code, when
I
hover
the mouse over "= Me!QC_Names_Combo", the correct value shows up.

Do any other possibilities come to mind?

When I click the Add_Edit_Label on my Form, the code goes to the
AfterUpdate event for a combobox control on my Subform. The last
parameter in this event code is where Vista throws up the
following
error:

Run-time error '3000':

Does anyone know what is happening here?

THE VISTA GODS ARE APPEASED!!! Thank you! Resolving the parameters
the way you suggested is what did it. Is there any downfall to
resolving all my parameters this way instead (in other forms, etc)?

No, now _downfall_ , but of course a _downside_ ;-)

Resolving parameters explicitly, like you did initially, should
normally be faster than dynamic resolving, but I don't know by how
much, you'd better test - and do so with a production size db (# of
records), but the method is fairly common among developers.

What frustrates me a bit here, is that I don't understand why it
works, and the explicit resolving doesn't, but I'm happy you got
it to work ;-)
