Move to the next question and return to the previous question

  1. Default Move to the next question and return to the previous question

    Can anyone please help me on how to move to the next and previous
    question?

    Here is a snippet of my code:

    Private Sub cmdNext_Click()
    End Sub

    Private Sub cmdPrevious_Click()
    showrecord
    End Sub

    Private Sub Form_Load()
    Dim i As Integer
    For i = 0 To 3
    Check1(i).BackColor = RGB(255, 255, 255)
    Next
    temstr = App.Path + "\testengine.mdb"
    Set db = OpenDatabase(temstr)
    initialise
    End Sub
    Sub initialise()
    Dim i As Integer
    Dim j As Integer
    j = 0
    Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("Select QuestionNo From QMultiple Where
    Selected = True Order By QuestionNo")
    rs.MoveFirst
    While rs.EOF = False
    j = j + 1
    selquestion(j) = rs!questionno
    rs.MoveNext
    Wend
    showrecord (1) 'Show first question
    End Sub

    Function quizscore() As Integer 'Returnes user's current score
    Dim score As Integer
    Dim i As Integer
    For i = 1 To 20
    Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("select solution from qmultiple where
    questionno=" & selquestion(i))
    If rs!solution = attempted(i - 1) Then
    score = score + 1
    Next
    quizscore = score
    End Function
    Sub showrecord(n As Integer) 'Displays question with qno=n
    Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("select * from qmultiple where questionno="
    & selquestion(n))
    With frmQuiz
    ..lblQuestion = rs!question
    ..Check1(0).Caption = rs!ans1
    ..Check1(0).Value = Val(Mid(attempted(n - 1), 1, 1))
    ..Check1(1).Caption = rs!ans2
    ..Check1(1).Value = Val(Mid(attempted(n - 1), 2, 1))
    ..Check1(2).Caption = rs!ans3
    ..Check1(2).Value = Val(Mid(attempted(n - 1), 3, 1))
    ..Check1(3).Caption = rs!ans4
    ..Check1(3).Value = Val(Mid(attempted(n - 1), 4, 1))
    ..lblQNo.Caption = n
    End With
    End Sub

    I want to move to the next question using the cmdNext button and move
    to the last question using the cmdPrevious button.

    Thanks guys.

    Private Sub cmdNext_Click()
    rs.MoveNext
    End Sub

    Private Sub cmdPrevious_Click()
    rs.MovePrevious
    End Sub

    Although this approach is possible, my initial thoughts were using the
    showrecord() function. I want to use the recordset object from that
    function but can someone guide me how to.

    Cheers.

    Your showrecord function builds a data set (your SQL "Select ..." statement)

    To do this everytime someone moves to the previous or next record is GROSSLY
    inefficient and is not doable using your code because ecverytime you go to
    show2record, you destroy the dataset (by building another one).

    If you want to do it this way, you need to build two dataset (one that will
    remain untouched) and one for your showrecord (again, it's not efficient to
    do it this way).

    If you have two datasets, assuming the original one is "rs" then all you
    need is (if you don't want to use MoveNext and MovePrevious)::

    rs.AbsolutePosition + 1 (for next) and
    rs.Recordset.AbsolutePosition - 1 (for previous, ensuring you're not
    already on number 1)
