StateBox is simply a list of U.S. states and DVPCBox contains Employee Names from a query based on the value of StateBox. I'm trying to set the value of DVPCBox equal to the first item in its list. Since the list of Employees is based http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17976642/ms-access-runtime-error-2115 on the value of StateBox, I need the value of DVPCBox to update every time StateBox changes. I tried the following: Private Sub StateBox_AfterUpdate() Me.DVPCBox.Requery If (Me.DVPCBox.ListCount = 1) Then Me.DVPCBox.SetFocus Me.DVPCBox.ListIndex = 0 //<-Error here End If End Sub But I got runtime error 2115 - The macro or function set to the BeforeUpdate or ValidationRule property for this field is preventing Microsoft Office Access from saving the data in the field. The strangest thing to me is that I'm not even using the BeforeUpdate Event or ValidationRule (as far as I'm aware.) vba ms-access access-vba share|improve this question edited Jul 31 '13 at 17:20 HansUp 79.3k114371 asked Jul 31 '13 at 17:08 Ben 3,20353062 add a comment| 1 Answer 1 active oldest votes up vote 1 down vote accepted ItemData(0) is the first combo box value. So set the combo equal to that. Private Sub StateBox_AfterUpdate() Me.DVPCBox.Requery If (Me.DVPCBox.ListCount >= 1) Then Me.DVPCBox.SetFocus 'Me.DVPCBox.ListIndex = 0 //<-Error here Me.DVPCBox = Me.DVPCBox.ItemData(0) End If End Sub I also changed ListCount >= 1 because I assumed you wanted to do the same thing when the combo includes 2 or more rows.

How to change a https://bytes.com/topic/access/answers/883017-how-change-field-beforeupdate-runtime-error-2115-a field in BeforeUpdate (runtime error 2115) P: 3 rudivs I would like to do data https://bytes.com/topic/access/answers/934680-how-solve-runtime-error-2115-a validation in the BeforeUpdate procedure, but Access gives me a runtime error when I try to do this: Runtime error 2115: The Macro of function set to the BeforeUpdate or ValidationRule property for this field is preventing MS Access from saving the date in the field. An example of what I am trying to do is as ms access follows: Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers PrivateSubOption_BeforeUpdate(CancelAsInteger) IfOption=AThen Answer=MsgBox("Don'tyoumeanB?",vbYesNo) IfAnswer=vbYesThen Cancel=True Option=B EndIf EndIf EndSub The code breaks on Option=B. I have tried using Option.Value = B instead of Option = B, but it still gives the same error. In plain english, what I'm trying to do is to check the value that a user supplies to a combo box, and under certain conditions, provide a message box to verify that the user has ms access error indeed made the correct selection. Based on the answer supplied by the user, the combo box should be changed to the correct value, or left as it is. Does anyone know if this can be done? Mar 9 '10 #1 Post Reply Share this Question 14 Replies Expert 5K+ P: 8,410 ADezii Setting Cancel = True will not allow the Form to be updated, and I don't think that this is what you're after. Depending on the User's Choice, either change the Entry or leave it along, then Save the Record. Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers PrivateSubForm_BeforeUpdate(CancelAsInteger) IfMe![cboOption]="A"Then Answer=MsgBox("Don'tyoumeanB?",vbYesNo) IfAnswer=vbYesThen Me![cboOption]="B" EndIf EndIf EndSub P.S. - Setting the Name of a Control to Option is not a good idea. Mar 9 '10 #2 reply P: 3 rudivs Thanks for your reply ADezii, I misunderstood how Cancel = True setting works, thank you for clarifying that. Your code works if I attach it to a form (as you have it), but then the validation is only done if I move to the next record. Is there some way to make it work with the combo box BeforeUpdate event so that it validates when I click in another control? (something like the following, adapted from your code, which still gives runtime error 2115): Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers PrivateSubcboOption_BeforeUpdate(CancelAsInteger) IfMe![cboOption]="A"Then Answer=MsgBox("Don'tyoumeanB?",vbYes

How to solve the "runtime error 2115" P: 1 thomashoyle Hi, I have a database-form with a couple of text boxes in it. I want to replace the first letter that is written in a text box with an uppercase letter, so I use the "after update" event and have written the following code: Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers PrivateSubstraatenhuisnummer_AfterUpdate() dimanaamasstring anaam=Forms!medewerker!straatenhuisnummer.Text anaam=UCase(Left(anaam,1)) Forms!medewerker!straatenhuisnummer.Text=anaam EndSub When the code is performed, I get the following error, which states "the macro or function set to the beforeupdate or validationrule property for this field is preventing Microsoft Access from saving the data in this field". Can anyone help me with this? thanks! Mar 8 '12 #1 Post Reply Share this Question 1 Reply Expert Mod 15k+ P: 29,923 NeoPa You are updating the control in the control's own AfterUpdate event procedure. That doesn't make much sense does it ;-) Try using BeforeUpdate instead : Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers PrivateSubstraatenhuisnummer_BeforeUpdate(CancelAs...) WithMe .straatenhuisnummer=Mixcase(.straatenhuisnummer) EndWith EndSub Also, please don't post code you've typed in directly in future. It wastes our time and isn't greatly appreciated.
