MS Access Continuous Form Not Updating

Question

So I'm fairly new to Ms Access and VBA. I'm trying to create an attendance calendar template where

I calculate an attendance code based on an employee's attendance
present that code onto a continuous form, as the employee number is fairly large

I have gotten all the necessary queries for all data required but I just can't seem to display it the way I want to

I used a DAO recordset to pull the data and whatnot. I have searched the internet high and low but can't seem to find and answer, so here I am.

Problem:

second and succeeding records use the first record's ID number instead of their own. The Name textbox is already bound to a query.

PS. I've used this template as basis for the VBA coding.

Public Sub Main()

'On Error GoTo ErrorHandler

Call InitVariables
Call InitArray
Call LoadArray
Call PrintArray


'ExitSub:
'    Exit Sub
'ErrorHandler:
'    msgbox "There has been an error. Please reload the form"
'    Resume ExitSub
End Sub

Private Sub InitVariables()
'On Error GoTo ErrorHandler

intMonth = Me.cboMonth
intYear = Me.cboYear
lngFirstDayOfMonth = CLng(DateSerial(intYear, intMonth, 1))
intFirstWeekday = getFirstWeekday(lngFirstDayOfMonth)
intDaysInMonth = getDaysInMonth(intMonth, intYear)

'ExitSub:
'    Exit Sub
'ErrorHandler:
'    msgbox "There has been an error. Please reload the form"
'    Resume ExitSub
End Sub


Private Sub InitArray()
Dim i As Integer

ReDim myArray(0 To 30, 0 To 2)

For i = 0 To 30


    myArray(i, 0) = lngFirstDayOfMonth - intFirstWeekday + 2 + i
    If Month(myArray(i, 0)) = intMonth Then
        myArray(i, 1) = True
        myArray(i, 2) = Day(myArray(i, 0))
    Else
        myArray(i, 1) = False

    End If
Next i

End Sub

Private Sub LoadArray()

Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim rs1 As DAO.Recordset

Dim rsFiltered As DAO.Recordset
Dim strSQL, strSQLTraxID As String

    'If Not rs.BOF And Not rs.EOF Then

        For i = LBound(myArray) To UBound(myArray)

            If myArray(i, 1) Then

   strSQL = "SELECT EiSyS.Date, [CAM Database].[Trax ID],  [CAM Database].[Full Name], EiSyS.AttendanceCode " _
  & "FROM EiSyS INNER JOIN [CAM Database] ON EiSyS.EmployeeID = [CAM Database].[Trax ID] where EiSyS.Date = CDate('" & Format(myArray(i, 0), "mm/dd/yyyy") & "') and " _
  & "EiSyS.EmployeeID = " & Me.[EmployeeID]

                Set db = CurrentDb
                Set rs = db.OpenRecordset(strSQL)
                Set rsFiltered = rs.OpenRecordset

                Do While (Not rsFiltered.EOF)

                    myArray(i, 2) = rs!AttendanceCode

                    Debug.Print Format(myArray(i, 0), "mm/dd/yyyy") & " - " & rs!AttendanceCode & " - " & Me.[EmployeeID]

                    rsFiltered.MoveNext
                Loop

            End If
        Next i

    'End If

    rsFiltered.Close

    rs.Close

Set rsFiltered = Nothing
Set rs = Nothing
Set rs1 = Nothing

Set db = Nothing


End Sub

Private Sub PrintArray()
'On Error GoTo ErrorHandler

Dim strCtlName As String
Dim i As Integer

For i = LBound(myArray) To UBound(myArray)
    strCtlName = "text" & CStr(i + 1)
    Controls(strCtlName).Tag = i
    Controls(strCtlName) = ""
    Controls(strCtlName) = myArray(i, 2)


Next i


'ExitSub:
'    Exit Sub
'ErrorHandler:

'    Resume ExitSub

End Sub

your textboxes have to be bound to a field in your query - all of them — dbmitch
@dbmitch I only need one textbox bound and it already is.. Me.[EmployeeID] is the textbox that's bound with the employeeID but as you can see all succeeding entries still use the first textbox's data.. Perhaps i'm missing something in the loop.. — Trevor Shardani
@dbmitch Thanks for the insight.. I used your suggestion and my form works perfectly ^_^. I'll have to use VBA to dynamically update the record source tho.. — Trevor Shardani

Used @dbmitch's suggestion to bind all textboxes to a query. I used Transform Pivot on the original query to make the necessary column names, matched and bound those to the appropriate textboxes. I'll prolly use VBA to update them if I want to view it differently but so far it works.
