Auto Run Report From Form
Jul 31, 2007
I have a form that upon load runs a Query to prepare a report. I have two Command buttons on the form...one for Print and one for Quit. The idea is to keep the User out of the menu's if possible and let them select a desired printer from the Print Dialog box, have the report run and the form/application close automatically. I have the following code behind the button. If I try acViewNormal then it automatically dumps the report to the default printer. If I use acViewPreview then it brings up a blank preview window with the Print dialog box on top. Any help will be much appreciated.
Dim stDocName As String
stDocName = "Scheduled Receipts"
DoCmd.OpenReport stDocName, acViewPreview
DoCmd.SelectObject acReport, stDocName
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdPrint
thanks for any help...tp...

i have a complete access database with forms and queries and reports.
the only problem i am facing is that when i create a new report it only takes the data already entered.
if i modify or change a record in the form or table the report doesn't update the modifed data it stays as it is before and i have to re-create a new report.
is there any way to deal with this and make the same report auto refresh the data modified or no ?

First off, can it be done? I'm using Microsoft Access 2007, I'm wanting to generate an auto-number on the report. Basically I have an OrderTable, a PartTable, and a PackingListTable. I have a report that shows all orders ready to be shipped. But I need the shipping report to have a packing list number. I want this number to be auto-generated, and I was hoping I could do this when the report is opened. Right now the report is generated through a query of orders that are ready to be shipped. Yet I can't figure out how to put an auto-generated packing number on the report.

I followed directions on a Microsoft site which created a desktop shortcut to auto-start a Report in Access 2003.Is there a way to re-show the Report query box until the user hits Cancel?The end-user is non techy and wouldn't remember how to run it manually once the first Report was ended.

I am working on making a DB to use as a production schedule. tblBuilds holds a list of builds. I have several reports to show this list with different filters. One such report is rptBuildsToday. This report will be open on the production warehouse computer and displayed on a huge screen all day every day.
Is it possible to make it so this report auto runs again every so often? When new builds are added to tblBuilds, or if a record on the table has its date changed to "today", It would be nice to have the report reflect this change within a certain time without having to manually refresh the report. The people looking at the screen will be doing so from their work benches and nowhere near the computer that has it opened.
If this is indeed possible, could the proposed method also work on a report or form inside the tab of a navigation control?

I need VBA code to print a report (rptLoadSheet) when the autonumber field (Auth Num) ends with a zero.
For example:
The autonumber is 99...no report.
The autonumber is 100...print the Load Sheet report.

I have a form where I need a button that will export the current record being viewed to a TXT file and attach to email, I want to specify the To, CC, Subject and Body of the email, if possible putting a flag on it also.
I'm not doing very well, so far I have
Code:
Private Sub MailExec_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_MailExec_Click
Dim stDocName As String
stDocName = "Executive Incidents"
[Code] ....
This now doesn't seem to be working, if I remote email.To= then it does however this only creates a blank email with attachment.

We have a large split database with 3 users on a single site. We will soon be increasing this to 6 users across 2 sites.
One of the fields in the main table is "report number" where a line is given a unique number. Not every line is given this number, as it depends on the finished status of the product.
The numbers are currently hand written onto a sheet as they are used, which obviously avoids duplicates. This however will be near on impossible once the database is shared across 2 sites.
the format of the number is 00/0000 where the first two digits are the year, and the last four increase sequentially.
Is there a reasonably easy way to incorporate this into the database itself, where a number can be generated as required, as apposed to every time?

I have a table called bookings, three records within that table are;
arrivaldate
departuredate
breakfast
This Table (Bookings) is linked to the guest table via GUESTID..Assuming that a guest arrive on the 5th and leaves on the 10th, I am trying to create a breakfast voucher for the guest for each day of their stay.
So 5 vouchers, 1 each for the 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, and 10th.I have created the breakfast voucher as a report and a query to include data but I dont know how to propagate the new data to actually create the vouchers. All I can get is data for the arrival or departure fields.

I have created invoices as reports but now I'm looking for a way to add an invoice number to it. It needs to be an auto increment number for every invoice for every client.
I have 10 different clients and I want them to have their own incremented invoice number. Every client has it own unique number. So for example in week 1 I want to have the following invoice numbers; 01-0001, 02-0001, 03-0001 etc. In week 2 I want them to be; 01-0002, 02-0002, 03-0002. It is important that every client has the invoice numbers without gaps.
What is the best way to realize this?

I am working on Access2007. I designed a report that I need to email every night automatically to my client. The report resides in the Access database. I currently use a macro to auto email this report for me but it still requires me to double click the macro to make it run. I actually want the report to be email at night without having me running the macro manually. Is there any way to make this happen?

I have been tasked with creating a tool to analyse mobile phone bill data and present the analysis, and our recommendation, to a customers. Being new to Access (other than basic tuition) this has been a slow uphill task, which is finally nearing completion, however there is a problem which I have not yet been able to overcome.
The requirement is for the DB to open first on a splash screen (lets call it Form A) with fancy picture where our customer is selected from a combo box, the customer is then telephoned, a linked computer screen is established and our staff then click "Go" to proceed to a second form (Form B) showing an account overview and more details.
The problem I have is when "Go" is clicked, the second form loads via on click event, and even populates the correct customer in its combo box. Unfortunately that is as far as it gets - the combo does not look up the information. The customer needs to be selected again for the subforms and subreports to load with the customer overview. To clarify, form B just sits there blank until the customer is re-selcted from the combo box in form B.

I've got one form that a user will start on, titled "Query Form" - Only one text box is here and it is titled "text0"
Upon hitting enter here, a new form is opened up titled "Time_IN_Form".
What I would like to do is have the value from text0 on the Query Form to automatically populate Emp_ID on Time_IN_Form so the user doesn't have to enter their employee number twice (only once via the first form).
What is the best way to do this? I have tried playing with global variables but didnt have any luck with that.

Hi All,
I am looking for some help with a project I am working on where I need to automatically print a report from my database every time a new record is added to the table. The table contains 13 fields and the report needs to display 12 of them, the other being the index which is set to Autonumber.
The table is being updated solely by ODBC, this is working OK.
There is the potential for records to be added to the table very quickly via the ODBC link, so I need to safeguard that the report is being populated with correct information from the record that triggered the print event. Also, should multiple records be added in close succession, a report needs to be correctly generated/printed for each of one. The DB is to have no user intervention, and will just run on the PC at startup with all access menus/controls locked out.
Any information on how you think I should structure this, or any examples of helpful code that you might have would be very much appreciated.
Thanks in advance, :)
Jon.

we use access database for printing lab reports. and a small graph is also printed on this report from another software(not an access application).
what i have done is that first we print the txt report from access and then use the same paper to print graph on it. I have alligned the report in such a way that these two reports fit perfectly.
we have to print twice and sometimes the graph is deleted in the other application, so we have to make the graph again.
what i want to do is:
1) prepare graph in the other application.
2) take a screenshot of it.
3) save this as an image file (jpg or bmp)
4) reference this picture in the access application and print it with the report.
So the problems are:
1) when i take a screenshot, how do i save it as a file,
2) how do i just get the area of the graph and remove all extra space. (usually all the other space is white as background)

I am a new access user and need some help. I have created an auto fill query to fill in information on a sales order table from my customer table based on CustomerID.
I have also created a sales order form. When I enter the customer ID in the form the rest of the data does not fill in. Actually nothing happens.
How do I link the form to the query so that the form knows where or how to look for the auto fill customer data.
Thanks

I’m fairly new to Access so I hope I can get the terminology correct. I’ve been working on creating a database which has a one to many relationship. With the help of the people in the table forum, I do have that working correctly, and even have a form and sub form where the data can be successfully input.
In short, I have a main item table to track my widgets. I have a reference or look up table of colors. Third, I have a relationship table that manages the one to many relationship. My main input form has all the fields that need to be plugged into the primary table. The Sub-Form is setup for continuous forms which allow me to input as many colors as I need. Again, this all works great.
Now, to go to the next level. There are times when I want to select many (lets say 8) different colors to my widgets (kept in the primary database and form). To select each all 8 colors each time is somewhat of a pain. It is my hope and intent to create a button on my sub form that would populate my subform with the static 8 colors that I want, thus bringing me down to a single click instead of 16. (1 for the drop down, 1 to select the color).
Is this at all possible? If so, can someone give me a shove in the right direction?
Structure as follows:
TblWidgets
•Widget – Text
•Value – Numeric
•Description – Memo
•Type – Text
TblColors
•Color - Text
•Description – Text
TblWidgetColorRelationship (one to many relationship)
•Widget – points to primary key in TblWidgets
•Color – points to primary key in TblColors
Thanks,
Joiry

Hey all,
Maybe im just having a brain fart, but I cant get this method to work.
There are two forms, the first records Two Names, The Bride and The groom along with their wedding date and where they registered. After all the data is entered on the first form, the first form is closed, and the second one is open.
What I would like to do is pass the info from the first form on to the second one. The second one uses the bride's info and the wedding date.
I tried using the query to fill it in but I havent had any luck. Been a long day.. maybe just not thinking clearly.
Any help would be appreicated, and thank you in advance to any replies!
Thanks!
Mateo

Hi
We have a number of forms in our database.
Each one is opened from a Main menu form or one of a number of sub-menu forms.
However, after a while we are realising that every time we are using a form unless we specifically close it, it stays open.
How would we automatically close a form when another one opens ?
Thanks
