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?
View RepliesSo I have created this database for a lessons learnt system. Is it possible in Access 2007 to create a button that if pressed automatically sends an email out to someone? So my main form in the database is a split form which contains a search filter, which works well and also contains a button called add new lesson. This button is linked into another form and when pressed brings up this new form. In this form it has a save and close button. What I actually would like is when the form is updated and this save and close button is pressed, an email is sent to a "project head" who has to confirms the information before the data is saved into the database. Is this actually possible?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHaving experimented with Access for a few months now; I know you can link an Access Database to SharePoint, and you can export Excel files into Access for inclusion in tables.
My question is; If I have a daily report being produced, through script, with an excel output. Is there anyway to automatically publish this in Access, negating the need to manually go into Access to import?
How would I set up an Outlook email using a list of recipients from an Access table? I'd like to be able to run this from Access 2007 and not Outlook. However, once the email is set up, I'd like to be able to go into the email and add subject, body, etc. before sending the email.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI've got a form which emails out a report when a new record is added to my database but I'm stuck when it comes to making it send it to more than one recipient.
I came across this on the web... which suggests I should be using an array but I don't know anything about arrays.
For multiple email addresses you just set MailDoc.sendto to an array of variants each of which will receive the message. So
Code:
Dim recip(25) as variant
recip(0) = "emailaddress1"
recip(1) = "emailaddress2" e.t.c
maildoc.sendto = recip
My problem is I'm not sure how to implement it? My 'recipients' are being pulled from a query... how do I get that into the array of variants?
My company recently upgraded our MS Office from 2007 to 2010 (except for Access).
Previously, when I had Access 2007 and Outlook 2007, I had a process that generated 50+ dynamic emails from an Outlook template file (.oft).
The code would loop through a listbox and replace the template's default text to a string of text specific to the selection in the listbox by utilizing the Replace() function on the MailItem .HTMLBody.
Since the upgrade to Outlook 2010, the code is able to run, however, the Replace() function is no longer working; Instead, each email that is generated maintains the template's default text.
The only thing that is not working is the Replace() function, all other aspects of the code work fine.
I've provided a simplified version of the code below:
Dim myOlApp As Outlook.Application
Dim objMailMessage As MailItem
Dim stBody As String
Set myOlApp = Outlook.Application
Set objMailMessage = myOlApp.CreateItemFromTemplate("C:UsersDesktop emplate.oft")
[Code] .....
I've recreated the template file in Outlook 2010, thinking that the template created with Outlook 2007 would be the culprit, but to no avail.
What could have changed from Outlook 2007 to Outlook 2010 that would render my previously valid code ineffective?
Are there certain references I need to enable in both Access and Outlook to allow VBA in Access modify the content in an Outlook email?
I am making my very first tentative steps to convert my most complex Access 2003 app to run under Access 2007. There are no obvious problems when simply opening my original MDB file in Access 2007 or running it after conversion to an ACCDB file. However, when I try to run the ACCDB file under the Access 2007 Runtime I get a "You can't carry out this action at the present time..." error. This is then followed by the "Execution of this application has stopped due to a runtime error..."
To be more specific, I only get that error when I deliberately hide the back end database and thus invoke code triggered via Autoexec to allow the user to browse for the missing database. This code works fine when running under normal Access 2007 so it appears to be a Runtime issue.
I understand right off the bat if you're reaction is "don't duplicate data!!" -- mine would be too (don't fret, I know my normalization).
I've linked a table in my db to my Global Address Book in Outlook 2007 and, upon entering an employee number as a new record, would like to verify that the number entered is listed in the GAL and then pull in the associated name and location info.
The key is that I don't want this info to rely on the GAL going forward. For example, if an employee leaves or is no longer listed in the GAL, I don't want to lose the employee info (past data is needed for audit purposes). Note: I will be creating a report later to show if there are discrepancies between the GAL and my table, but that's another story...
So, what would be the best auto-fill options in Access 2007?
I know Access can setup an Outlook Task to auto-export query to Excel, but it requires the Outlook to be always open on the user's computer.
Is there an easy way to setup a schedule that can automatically export a query to Excel and this schedule will then auto-email the exported Excel file to an email address every Monday at 5AM for example?
If this can only be done in VBA, any reference I may start with?
I currently have a database set up with three basic forms:
Form 1 = Main menu with options to go to Form 2 and Form 3
Form 2 = Employee information form which includes email address
Form 3 = Employee document upload form
My goal is once the Employee is registered in Form 2 they can then upload a document in Form 3. When they upload this document and fill out other parameters Including their bosses name (which is captured as a record in Form 2) they click "Submit Form." I would like for this submit form button to populate an email that is updated to send to the selected "Bosses name"
Currently on the Submit form button I have:
Private Sub Submit_Record_Click()
DoCmd.SendObject _
, _
, _
, _
"email .com", _ <-- this is what I want to autopopulate with the correct persons email (as well as their name below)
, _
, _
"***A new Lab Report has been submitted for your review***", _
"Bosses name," & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & "Please log into the Report Database and review the latest pending report. If you have any questions please contact the sender." & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & "This is an automated response generated from Microsoft Access." & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & "Sincerely," & vbCrLf & "ESBU Lab Report Database", _
False
DoCmd.Close
End Sub

View 3 Replies View RelatedIn Access 2007 there a way to send a report to a file you create from the information in the form?
Right now my code for the command button is:
Dim strMyPath As String
Dim strMyName As String
strMyPath =" EBEBMainDigital Sender "
strMyName = "Permit " & Me.[Permit Number].Value
DoCmd.OpenReport "File Current Permit", acViewPreview, , "[ID] = " & Me.[ID]
DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, "File Current Permit", acFormatPDF, strMyPath + strMyName, False
DoCmd.Close acReport, "File Current Permit"
And that works perfect for sending the current report to the Digital Sender Folder... but I'd like to be able to send it to a certain county folder within the digital sender folder, based on what is listed for the county on the form. same for municipalities. and then, have it create a folder based on the name inside the form..... how to lead it through the path of the folder through the given information on the form, or how to make it create a folder.
Is it possible to create a line or bar graph as a report in Access 2007?
If so, how would you go about it?
Hi,
I would like to ask a question regarding MS Access reports. I used the following code to email the report created in Access.
DoCmd.SendObject [ObjectType],[ObjectName],[OutputFormat],[To],[CC],[BCC],[Subject],[MessageText],[EditMessage],[TemplateFile]
I send a report in an email in rich text format and it works. But when you open the report there is no image, lines or rectangles. The format is ok but image on top of the report and lines are missing which I used for column captions. If anyone know how to handle this problem, I will really appreciate.
Thanks

I have created a report with the report wizard in Access 2007 that includes a check box. The check box is located under the label but to the far left side. How can I center the check box under the label?
View 10 Replies View RelatedI am writing a book, using MS Access 2007 (seemed like a good idea at the time I started, and the report that creates the formatted book content works quite well).
The book content is "per paragraph" which gives me total flexibility to move content to whatever spot in the book I might wish, simply by changing the paragraph number (free field, not auto-number primary).
To save paper (or pages) in printing (or viewing) the book, I have the report printing off para by para (as many whole paras as will fit to a page). This is fine but I want each new chapter to start at a forced new page, for "presentation"/appearance sake.
The relevant fields for the purposes of this post are:
paranumber
paratext
chapternumber
forcepageifticked (a Yes/No box), which goes with each paragraph and which I thought might come in handy, I had in mind to link it to a page break control at the top of the "detail" part of the report in design view, and which would be "invisible" except if the report formatting process had got to the start of any chapter, and the Yes/no box was ticked.
Upon opening a report (it does this randomly), the report opens and it is completelty blank - no lines, lables, or fields - nothing. However, when I click on an area, the group I clicked on will render and display perfectly. So when this happens, I either have to click every where on the page or scrolling up and down (if the report is long enough) will render the whole report. It doesn't do this everytime; about 25% of the time though.
As you can imagine, when other people use the database and this happens, they freak and just think access is broken. What is causing this or what can be done to prevent this from happening?
I'm using access 2007.
I have DB in access 2007. I have a report that is uses a select query to generate the information for the report. It has been working great, But however lately like maybe with in the last month, it has been causeing Access 2007 to crash. I am having the same issue with another DB that uses the same information but that information is imported in. both Databases have worked great up until two months ago. Microsoft states that it is because of the program. I have tried to repair the DB by using the Repair option. I am confused as to why this would be happening. I can create a new report and it seems to work. but I do not want to change all the DB on everyone's computer just for this reason. I also have two buttons on my report that utilize macros to close or print the report.

I need to generate a report with records generated on a daily basis and I am looking how to write the query expression. For example, my Access database generates record on a daily basis and I an using a query to generate the report. I only want to report the records created on that day, and then each subsequent day. So, in the query, I am looking for the correct expression to grab only those records generated that day. (Hope its not confusing, I'm new at this)
Thanks for any help in advance!

Microsoft Access 2007.Background: I have a query that received work orders from out client system and runs them through access. Once in Access, an employee goes through the query output and organizes the records (mentally) by product_code. There can be be 1 or more records of a certain product_code and there are 129 total different product_codes. Say, a typical time the employee runs this query they might see 25 different records consisting of 6 different product_codes.Each product_code designates who (an email address) should be sent the work orders to approve.
The employee currently copy/paste the relevant records in an Outlook 2010 email body and uses an external excel sheet with the email addresses to see who it should be sent to. I'm automating this whole process.I've gotten an email to generate in vba, and to send an 1 email to each person who has one of their product_codes in the query output.
My problem is that I'm having trouble figuring out how to filter the emails so that instead of seeing all 25 records (from above example) they only see the records with their product_code.Another thing to mention is that as of now, I have a script that converts the report to HTML and sticks it in the body of the email. So I'm not sure how to edit that script to allow to filter the report or if that's even where I need to do the filtering (another procedure maybe?)
This is my html conversion script
'product_code = Mfg_Cd in this scriptFunction exporthtml(str_Sender As String, str_DataMsg As String)
Dim strlin As String, strHTML As StringDim objOutlook As Outlook.ApplicationDim objOutlookMsg As Outlook.MailItem
Dim objOutlookRecip As Outlook.RecipientDim varX As Variant

Set objOutlookMsg = Outlook.Application.CreateItem(olMailItem)

The multi-user application I'm making uses data from another system. I get reports in csv format e-mailed to me in zip format. Since it's a multi-user system, I have to create a table with the records from the csv I get an error message that someone is viewing the data if I try viewing it while someone is viewing it.
When I get the e-mail with the latest version of the csv, I unzip it and replace the older file in the folder location that the Access database is linked to. I have a sub routine that deletes everything from the table and inserts the records from the latest csv. I execute the sub by pressing a button.
Is there a way to automate unzipping the file, extracting it to the folder and running the sql code in VBA?

I have a subroutine that works well for sending emails. A need has arisen to, in some cases, send an Access report as a PDF attachment.

I think I'm close, but I don't know the syntax for passing the report name as the Source parameter in the Attachments.Add method.
