Hello all -
This is driving me crazy. I have a table called tblClients - very
simple, has the following fields:
taxID (PK)
ClientName
SalesName
The main form of my application allows a user to select a client and
shows sales transactions on a subform. I wanted to include a button
the user could click which would allow them to edit the client
information. So, I created a form called frmEditClient which is loaded
when the button is clicked. Code on the OnClick event for the code
button:
Private Sub cmdEditClient_C lick()
Dim LinkCriteria As String
LinkCriteria = "[ClientName]= '" & Me.txtSelectedC Lient & "'"
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmEditClient" , , , LinkCriteria
End Sub
Pretty simple, just opens the EditClient form using the current client
in the recordsource - this opens the form and the user can edit
details and save the form. The recordsource of frmEditClient is a
query called vwEditClient that selects all from tblClients (tried
using tblClients as record source - same problem)
Only problem is if the user wants to edit the ClientName field - since
frmEditClient is using the ClientName field as a filter, I get a
runtime error 30014 - the data has been added but cannot be displayed
because it no longer meets the criteria of the underlying
recordsource.
I know *why* I'm getting the error, I just want to stop it. I've tried
to trap the damn thing, but can't seem to get it to trap - the error
is generated on the "me.dirty=false " line, and this stops any code
after from running. I have tried to put On Error Goto 0 at the
beginning of the sub, etc..., but nothing seems to trigger.
Here is the code for the Save button, without any error handling:
Private Sub cmdSave_Click()
If Me.Dirty Then
Me.Dirty = False
Else
MsgBox ("No changes were detected - please make your changes, or
hit Cancel to return to the previous screen")
Exit Sub
End If
DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmEditCli ent"
End Sub
All I want is:
1) A way to load the frmEditClient so the form displays the client
that was selected on the main form
2) A way to suppress or hide the runtime error that occurs when the
user edits the clientname.
Can someone assist with a way to trap this error or prevent it from
happening?
Thanks
