Match textboxes together - string

I have been told that there is a wizard that can control what my form (of the table ) opens when I click a button. For example, I enter 123 on my textbox on the main form and click "Go" button. So the frmtable should open up, but only shows the record where 123 is the ID field, that is, the primary key.
The Question:
Is there a wizard that can get this done, or is VBA needed? Any answer would be good, but I actually remember someone mentioning a wizard of that sort.
Thnx in advance.

Open a form using a Macro as referenced here. Set the Where condition in the Macro.
Or using VBA as referenced here:
DoCmd.OpenForm ("myForm", acNormal, , "[fieldname]=[FormControl]")

Set collection to selected values in Power Apps form when opened in edit mode

I have a SharePoint list-integrated Power Apps form.
I have a multi-select combobox called DataCardValue4 (which is hidden) that comes from a choice on the SharePoint list.
I need to put the selected values of this combobox into a collection when the form is edited.
On SharePointIntegration, on Edit, I have:
ForAll(DataCardValue4.SelectedItems, Collect(colVehiclesRequested,ThisRecord.Value));
This works fine when the user opens the form and puts it in edit mode manually. Unfortunately, I have a Power Automate flow which gives a link that opens the form in edit mode directly.
When the form is opened in edit mode, DataCardValue4.SelectedItems is empty at the time of SharePointIntegration on edit.
Is there another way to do this? Is there another place to put this further down the lifecycle so it will work properly?
I guess I'm kind of looking for the document.ready version of a Power Apps-integrated form.
I'd try to put your formula into the Screen.OnVisible property with some conditional wrapping. This would make sure it (also) runs when it is opened directly.
I had the same issue, I added the code in the App.OnStart

Linking Userform Button Labels to VLookup Code

Good Evening All,
This is my first time using VBA, so apologies if this question seems pretty trivial.
I have a spreadsheet that lists out Document ref no, doc title, due dates, author etc - there's about 40 in total.
I have set up a "Search" Userform with CommandButtons on which are labels with the doc ref for each document.
I have then created another "Information" Userform with text boxes for all the pertinent information appending to the document. This Userform has a VLookup to go into the spreadsheet and pull all the information associated with a particular doc ref no.
Question: I would like to use the same Information Userform for all the document refs. I would therefore like the VLookup Value to equal the label name from whatever button is pressed on the initial search Userform. Is this possible?
I have managed to do this for one button, but trying to get it to work for multiple buttons baffles me.
For example if I haven't been clear. If I click on the button labelled Document 1 I want the form to drag all the info for document 1, and the same form to do the same thing if I click Document 2 and 3 and so on.

Percentage calculation from infopath to sharepoint

I am a newbie in sharepoint/infopath.
I am trying to edit an existing field in sharepoint which seems to be loaded from infopath.
The flow of the program is as follows:
I open a form (which is integrated using infopath) from sharepoint. The form has some multiple choice questions and at the end there is a submit button. After clicking "submit", I am transferred to a list view which displays the "number of correct answers" and "your percentage" columns (I can have multiple attempts and they are displayed in the list).
I am trying to edit the calculations of the percentage. When I open the infopath form, I can see that there is a field called "Your percentage". I displayed the setting and there is no formula.
Where can I edit that field?
Thanks!
Use the button Rule Inspector to check all the rules cotained on the form, the button is located on the data ribbon:
There you can see all the rules, just look up for the one that calculates the percentage.
Hope this helps.

CRM 2011: enable/disable a ribbon button on condition

I am new to CRM and I have an exiting ribbon button. I want to disable it on condition (Field1 is null or not).
So far, I have created an new solution and included the required entity.
Exported the solution and tried to change the configuration.xml.
I have tried to make change under . But without any luck.
Can anyone help me out with an example.
Thanks in advance.
Don't edit it by hand. Use The Visual Ribbon Editor Tool. Makes things much nicer to deal with than hand editing the xml.
If you want to setup a button to be enabled if new_field1 (capitalization matters so make sure it's correct with what your field's actual name is) is not null, here is what you would do:
Open up the ribbon editor
Conenct to your org
Select your entity with the ribbon button you want to enable/disable
Click on your button
Click the Enable Rules tab
Enter the field name exactly as it appears in the customization section of your solution within CRM in the Field text box.
Enter "null" (without the quotes) for the value. Lower case.
Skip Default (if you have some custom forms where the field does not exist, you may want to give it a default value)
Change Invert Result to true.
Click the "Save" button at the very top. (don't click the save button on the main tab of the ribbon)
Verify that it is getting deployed and published.
Test it out.
Edit: Use Ribbon Workbench For System Ribbons
I've never used it, but the Ribbon Workbench says it can customize system buttons.

"Hidden" columns in Sharepoint 2007

I'm trying to make a custom list for inquiries, where users will fill in some information such as "Name", "Reason" etc. When they've finished filling in the information and added the item, the administrator will then go through the item, and fill in some new columns that the user hasn't been able to fill in.
I hope you understand me, otherwise you're more than welcome to ask questions!
With SharePoint designer 2007, you can use the SPSecurityTrimmedControl who enable you to show/hide form field (or site action...).
Syntax :
<SharePoint:SPSecurityTrimmedControl PermissionsString="ManageLists" runat="server">
WHAT_YOU_WANT_TO_HIDE_HERE
</SharePoint:SPSecurityTrimmedControl>
For the PermissionsString, all values HERE
You'll need to use SharePoint Designer. You will create custom new and edit forms. This way when the user fills in the new form, only certain fields will appear. Then when the administrator edits the item using the edit form, they will have access to more fields.
Please see this link for more information.
Try making a copy of the form you wish to edit by copying and pasting to the same folder. Then click on the web part for the form and the code above will highlight . Look for tags IsVisible and change it from "true" to "false". This will hide the default form. Do not delete the original form.
Click on the web part in the design view then press your right arrow. This will move the cursor to right after the web part but still within the web part zone. Go to the Insert menu, select SharePoint Controls then Custom List form. A small dialog window will appear, select the list name from the first drop down, then select the content type from the second drop down. Finally select which form you want to insert, New, Edit or Display. Click OK. The new form will be displayed under the default form, and you will then see all of the fields in order and you can add or remove as you like.
If one did not want to edit the pages, couldn't one use Jquery to hide the fields? I have done this with SPservices. to check the user credentials if you will and then if matched display the hidden fields... all this is done from a web part...just a thought...I actually learned something great today.. great replies.
