Cancel Button not working
in [Form]
|
From: Jesse via AccessMonster.com on 23 Feb 2010 12:04 Thank you for your input. To get it to work on the report open I used this. Dim Response As Long Response = MsgBox("Approximate wait time is 5 minutes." _ & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & _ "Push OK to continue,Cancel to Quit", vbOKCancel) If Response = vbCancel Then DoCmd.CancelEvent End If The docmd.canceEvent works good except it maximizing the form. I have the code on the report to maximize on open and restore on close to restore the form to the size i have it. But if you press the cancel button it still maximizes the form and does not complete the restore docmd. Not a huge deal but still would be nice to have it work clean. If you have any insite on this issue I would be happy to listen and learn.

From: BruceM via AccessMonster.com on 23 Feb 2010 12:45 Maximizing which form? Are you referring to code in the command button that opens the report? You could try Cancel = True rather than DoCmd.CancelEvent, but I doubt it will make a difference? Jesse wrote: >Thank you for your input.

From: Jesse via AccessMonster.com on 23 Feb 2010 13:04 I have a form that is built as a switchboard. When I press a command it follows the handle number then opens a report. On the report properties I have event procedures on the "On Open" and "On Close". the on open I tell it to maximize and on the on close I tell it to restore. I have the form not maximized in the access database but when you maximize a report it maximizes the form unless you tell it to restore on close. then it puts the form window back to the size you have previously set. So when I use the code below and the user presses ok the report runs and on close the form is restored. But if the user presses the cancel button the form stays maximized because for some reason the restore command doesn't occur. BruceM wrote: >Maximizing which form?

From: BruceM via AccessMonster.com on 23 Feb 2010 14:23 Try restoring (Me.Restore) in the Activate event of the form. Restoring in the Close event of the report applies Restore to that report, not to any other object. I'm not sure why it works as you would like in one instance but not the other, but I do think the code needs to be in the form's Activate event.

From: Jesse via AccessMonster.com on 23 Feb 2010 15:15 I placed the me.restore in the activate event and it gave me an error of "Application-defined or abject-defined error". After I typed the . it didnt show restore in the list of objects that i could use. So it doesnt work in the activate event. Im not sure why it works in one instance but not the other either. Access can be strange sometimes. BruceM wrote: >Try restoring (Me.Restore) in the Activate event of the form.
