Using a Date filtered value from a SubForm on the MainForm


I am trying to get the last entry of an allready filtered SubForm and place that single value on the MainForm. The entry should also be between a Date_0 and Date_1 alltough Date_1 is not allways specified (in that case simply get the last entry from the SubForm). So you get a more graphical idea (this is a simplification of the real Form):

MainForm:

Date_0 Date_1 ValueToGet
2020/12/23 2021/02/27 Value from Subform

SubForm:

Dates Values
2020/12/20 1200
2020/12/23 1189
2021/01/25 1173
2021/02/20 1165
2021/03/12 1333

The value to collect from the SubForm would be, in this example, the fourth entry (between Date_0 and Date_1, and last entry in that Date range). The value is then stored in a txtBox in the MainForm as the Form Loads. I know the solution is probably setting a SQL filter on the txtBox, but I do not know how to do this. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!


Solution

  • You can try below sub-

    Private Sub cmdGetResult_Click()
    Dim strFilter As String
    Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
        
        Me.Refresh
        
        strFilter = "[Dates] BETWEEN #" & Me.Date_0 & "# AND #" & Me.Date_1 & "#"
    
        Forms![Form1]![subformTest].Form.Filter = strFilter
        Forms![Form1]![subformTest].Form.FilterOn = True
        
        Set rs = Me.subformTest.Form.RecordsetClone
        
        rs.MoveLast
        Me.txtValueToGet = rs!values
        
        Forms![Form1]![subformTest].Form.FilterOn = False
        Set rs = Nothing
        
    End Sub
