Display query results in a form - same form, many queries 2

[Moss100]

Hello,

Is there an easy way to display the results of queries in an unbound form?

I just want to display the result of the query data to the user, but would really like to control the display of the query in a form (so I can pop it up and control the dimensions etc.).

The queries each have different fields and come from different tables.

Or if anyone has other suggestions of an easy way to display queries.

Many thanks Mark

You can display the results of your queries in Mshflexgrid or Msflexgrid

Have fun.

just put the query in a subform and all the controls on the main form. Set the source object of the subform and manipulate the query. See this for datasheet manipulation

This can be fairly easy.

Create a new form and add a combo box with these properties:
Name: cboQuery
Row Source: SELECT msysobjects.NAME FROM msysobjects WHERE Type=5 ORDER BY msysobjects.NAME;
You can modify the row source SQL to further filter the queries.

Add a subform control on the form with these properties:
Name: sfQuery

Add code to the After Update of the combo box

Private Sub cboQuery_AfterUpdate()
    Me.sfQuery.SourceObject = "Query." & Me.cboQuery
End Sub

That is all working a treat - thank you.

Is there anyway to make the subform read only?

I have set 'locked' to true, which stops edits, but i can still delete records from the query.

Thanks Mark

Me.sfQuery.Form.AllowDeletions = False
