I'm sure this is an easy fix but I can't seem to find it. I just have a form, that will be a subform of another, that needs to display the results of a query.
The query is simple enough, just displays all fields of records that fall between specified dates. The query works great, but when I attach it to the form as its record source it doesn't display the data. I can see the correct amount of record selectors so I know its understanding the query but its as if all fields are hidden!
I have also tried building a query to the forms record source that was simply Select query.* From query. Oddly I have had this working before but I had to specify every field. What I mean is:
Select title From query
Select type From query
Select date From query
...
And so on for all the fields but this seems foolish, can anyone think of what I may be doing wrong?
Thanks in advance!
Edit, forgot to mention I also tried the foolish solution that I mentioned above and it didn't work so its definitely some issue that I'm not seeing, some property that's probably not appropriately set
#sshekhar well its not really code at the moment I'm using Access 2010. I have a form that needs to display a subform that executes this query of displaying records that have a data field that fall between dates specified by the user. The query works and displays the correct records, but the form that it is attached to only shows the record selectors and all the fields appear to be "hidden." I thought it may be one of the form's properties set incorrectly but I checked on the test form from another database that I used and each have what appears to be identical settings. So I'm at a loss!
So it turns out even though I using a query that holds all the fields it will not display the content unless you go to the Add Existing Fields and add all the the fields you want to see. This seems really silly especially when the results in the query but at least its working now.
I had this problem and discovered that having the property DataEntry set to YES will only display new records. From Microsoft Help:
You can use the DataEntry property to specify whether a bound form
opens to allow data entry only. The Data Entry property doesn't
determine whether records can be added; it only determines whether
existing records are displayed. Read/write Boolean.

I have a weird situation with my MS Access 2016 split database.
The back-end is a Azure SQL server DB, the front-end are distributed accde files.
I have a form bound to a linked table with several sub-forms in it.
The form is used to edit single records of the main table.
With some records all works fine ("good") but with some other records ("bad") the text boxes freeze, not allowing any edits.
No error messages, they just seem to be locked but the locked property of the text boxes control is set to false. (I've checked this in runtime)
What I've tried so far:
I can edit all records directly in the linked table
The properties of the form and controls in both "good" records and
"bad" records are the same
I can change the values of check and combo boxes and update the "bad"
records
The BIT column has a default value of 0 and nulls are not allowed (no
NULLS in the table for this field)
I'm running out of ideas. Any help will be much appreciated.
I've figured it out, so i'll leave the solution in case someone hits the same issue.
I have a subform with a browser control. All i had to do was to add the following line at the end of the main form loading sequence:
Me.SF_WEB_BROWSER.SetFocus
For a blog model I'm saving an RSS field as text under Blog.rss, problem is, some of this is rather long and each one prints when I'm working in the rails console, ie: Blog.last(10).
Is there a way to hide output unless I call someblog.rss specifically?
I had a similar problem and received some solutions in another forum, which were:
Use select to get just the columns you need
If you have a very long column (I had JSON data structure from a webhook cluttering the console), consider whether you really need it, and if you don't , don't store it in the table
Or, consider storing it in an associated table
if you need the whole object but just want to change how it's represented in console/log output, you can redefine inspect
yourobject.as_json(except: :unwanted_column)

My problem seems simple. But have not been able to solve till now. Any help would be appreciated.
I have a listgrid showing certain records from a datasource. One of the fields is a many to one. When I try to edit any record, I get a dropdown with all the possible values that the record can have. All fine thus far. The issue is that all the dropdown values are displayed as simple text. I wish them to be displayed as shown in this link.
The requirement is to have "A SelectItem with icons" on the listgrid.
Regards
Use ListGridField.setEditorType() to customize the editor shown for a field. This API takes a FormItem, so pass a SelectItem configured similarly to the sample you linked to.
I needed to create a input mask for a jQuery datepicker in my Rails app, where the first form field uses m/d/yy format and the datepicker populates a hidden input with the proper database format.
I was using SimpleForm, and so I extended my own input so that the input is preceded by the mask.
I got everything set up and when checking out the browser, it all just worked well before I thought I would be done.
The form ends up with two inputs for the same attribute, each with the same id and name. I never thought this would work. Checking the development log I only see one date getting submitted, the second of the two which is the one that has the proper format for the database.
Is this all okay? Should I take some extra steps even though this appears to work fine, and more importantly, can someone explain what's going on under the hood that results in this behavior?
Thanks!!
Rails uses the Hash params to store fields submitted. When you declare two or more inputs using the same name, it happens the same as if you do something like
h=Hash.new
h[:name]="foo"
h[:name]="bar"
Result is bar because the foo was overwritten. So the "winner" is always the field value which the browser last appended to postdata.
But if I where you, I would not rely on the browser that the second field gets appended at last.
i am using Listgrid of smartgwt api. i have set filter editor on the list grid using setShowFilterEditor(). On UI, i can filter out the text from the particular columns using filter editor which is shown on top of listgrid. till this, everything works fine. but problem starts after this. my ListGridRecords are of type ScreenInstanceGridRecord.
I cleared out the filter criteria before getting the ListGridRecord from the ListGrid using method clearCriteria(), so that i can save all the records to database ie. unfiltered records. when i try to get records from the listgrid using getRecordList(), 1000 Dummy records are added on the fly on first iteration, all my populated records are ignored . and i need here is records of ScreenInstanceGridRecord type. but on second iteration, i am getting my populated records which is of ScreenInstanceGridRecord type. why this problem is occurring. i should be getting ScreenInstanceGridRecord on the first iteration itself when i try to get records from the ListGrid using getRecordList(). i am getting no idea about this weird thing. any help from your side is most welcome.. plss
When you say you're getting 1000 Dummy records instead of your loaded records, in fact, your Records are not loaded yet at all. In this case, the ResultSet created by the ListGrid (see docs for ListGrid.fetchData()) is returning a provisional length (defaults to 1000) and returning the loading marker in lieu of Records (see ResultSet.rowIsLoaded()).
Use the DataArrived event to take action once data has been loaded. See ResultSet.lengthIsKnown() for how you can, in general, tell that data is not yet loaded.
