The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

How to pass variable to sql server stored procedure from access mdb form

Asked by cbruno33 in Microsoft Access Database

Tags: stored procedure variable, access form, ms access, mdb

I have an Access mdb front end, which is linked to sql server tables via ODBC.  I'd like to leverage sql server stored procedures to improve the performance, but  I must maintain the front end as an mdb file (not adp).  

Here is a specific scenario:

Form (frmAdoptionList) contains a listbox (lstAdoption) that currently uses a local query as it's record source (qlstAdoption).  This query refers to two fields on the frmAdoptionList form  to filter the listbox. For example:

SELECT dbo_sa_adoption.*
FROM dbo_sa_adoption
WHERE (((dbo_sa_adoption.location)=[Forms]![frmAdoptionList]![cboLocation]) AND ((dbo_sa_adoption.adopted)=[Forms]![frmAdoptionList]![adoptValue]));

I'm also using an AfterUpdate event procedure to requery listbox when user changes either of the two form field values, e.g.:

Private Sub cboLocation_AfterUpdate()
    Me.lstAdoption.Requery
End Sub

I'd like to change row source of the listbox to instead use a store procedure and pass the two form field values so that I'm not pulling the entire record set across.  To prepare for this, I've created a simple stored procedure named "sp_sa_lstAdoption" using this:

CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[sp_sa_lstAdoption]
      @location varchar(50),
      @adopted int
AS
SELECT     dbo.sa_adoption.*
FROM       dbo.sa_adoption      
WHERE location = @location and adopted = @adopted

Using this specific example, can someone show me how to set the row source of the listbox to use the stored procedure that uses the two form parameters?  I'm assuming I need to do something on the "OnOpen" event of the form containing the listbox, but I'm not sure exactly how to do it.  I'm not used to setting connection strings in code, so specific guidance on what the resulting code should look like for the OnOpen event would be extremely helpful.  If I can understand how to accomplish this once, I think I'll be able to figure out how to do it in other scenarios.  Any help is much appreciated.

Regards,
Christopher
