move the mouse on access 2013 form with vba

With Forms!MyFormName
    .recordsetclone.findfirst "ID = 1"
    if .recordsetclone.nomatch then
        msgbox "Record not found."
    else
        .bookmark = .recordsetclone.bookmark
        CustomerName.setfocus
    endif
End With

Select allOpen in new window

I've already get from you this code, now i need a code to move the mouse cursor

Try this (includes a small but critical modification):

With Forms!MyFormName
    .recordsetclone.findfirst "ID = 1"
    if .recordsetclone.nomatch then
        msgbox "Record not found."
    else
        .bookmark = .recordsetclone.bookmark
        !CustomerName.setfocus
    endif
End With

Select allOpen in new window

this assumes that the control is named "CustomerName".

Let me know if it doesn't work, or if some error appears. If an error appears, please post the exact text of the error message.

@Peter, I believe he wants to have the mouse cursor hover right over the matching record and not just the record to have the focus.

@bill201, May I ask what the purpose is to have the mouse over this selected field?  Placing a mouse at a specific position may be possible but it is not as simple as one would think.  If the records are in a continuous form or listbox with a scrollbar, it would be quite difficult to calculate the position on the screen if the scrollbar is not at the top of the list.

pdebaets:
Thank you for your reply but as IrogSinta wrote it was not what I mean.

IrogSinta:

Thank you for explaining what I mean.

I want to do this for reasons of visual and beauty, but if it's complicated is not worth working on it. But I think that it should not be so complicated, I want to just move from the current mouse location down several inches vertically, I can play it until I find the exact measurement please just tell me how to move the mouse vertically with vba.

thanks for your answer but i have a compile error

i put this code on a module:

Public Declare Function SetCursorPos Lib "user32" (ByVal x As Long, ByVal y As Long) As Long
SetCursorPos 200, 100
End Function

Select allOpen in new window

but i get a compile error on the SetCursorPos 200, and this message content is
compile error:
Invalid outside procedure

Maybe it's related to the problem: my  windows system measurement are in centimeters

SetCursorPosition should be within the procedure where you are finding your record.

As I mentioned, this line should be at the top of a module and not inside a procedure.

I have to agree with Peter here.

Depending on personal preferences, it is a record that I move down a line (in a continues form) and I want the mouse will still be marked on the record so I can continue to download line without moving the mouse

Well you convinced me to give it up. Thank you for the detailed explanation

To be even clearer...
;-)

My post was not meant to discourage you.
Nor was it meant to prevent other experts from trying to help you out.

It's just that, again, I have never seen an interface like you were requesting in MS Access (or any other platform)

So you can see that even the top experts here were struggling to get you what you wanted...

You can certainly take the info presented here and research different techniques for positioning the mouse.
But as another expert mentioned, having the mouse appear in positions that the user did not move it to, may befuddle users.

Questions like this are sometimes better dealt with if you first start with the problem, then ask for advice in solving it.
This way Experts can provide a variety of solutions.
As opposed to you telling us the way you would like to do it.
By you telling us, ...you force us to perhaps circumvent normal interface design practices.

This all being said, ...there will always be exceptions to the rule, and sometimes a custom interface is needed.
;-)

Enjoy the weekend
