Close Event To Print Report
Jun 30, 2006
I am using the following dialog box to ask whether or not the user wants to print the report in the Close event of a report. I really need help finishing the code. As the user presses "X" to close the report, I would it to be that if the user says yes...the report prints. If the user says no...the report closes.:cool:
Private Sub Report_Close()
Dim Msg, Style, Title, Help, Ctxt, Response, MyString
Msg = "Print the Report?"
Style = vbYesNo + vbQuestion
Title = "Report"
Help = "DEMO.HLP"
Ctxt = 5000
Response = MsgBox(Msg, Style, Title, Help, Ctxt)
If Response = vbYes Then

I have a report which is accessed via a hyperlink in a form. I have the default view for the report set to Print Preview yet everytime I click the link the report opens in report view which I don't want.
The event for the hyperlink is as follows:
Private Sub cmdPrint_Click()
Dim strWhere As String
If Me.Dirty Then 'Save any edits.
Me.Dirty = False
End If
[Code] .....
I have tried changing "acViewPreview" to "acViewReport" and "acViewNormal" and each time it is either going straight to print or opening in report view. I just want the report to open in print preview mode so I can decide if to print a hard copy or send to pdf.

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.

I have an unbound form with an associated report. When the user hits the 'print' button on the form/screen, the report is launched in the background. In the On Load event of the report I populate the report fields from the forms field as so:
Code:
Me.txtAddrMainLine2 = "NAME " & UCase([Forms]![frm_OrderRx].[txtPatientName])
This works like a charm as long as I call the report in Print Preview mode (i.e. with acViewPreview). But if I send the report directly to the printer, none of the fields print.
I've read about using other report events to populate the fields (e.g., On Format and On Print) and also something about using TempVars to pass the data. But I haven't read anything that's clear and definitive about the full answer.

I used the following code in the on close event of my form and it works when the value of [maingameformation.playid] is not previously entered but if there is already a value there it won't overide it? Is this possible to do?
Private Sub Form_Close()
[Forms]![gameentryfrm]![maingameformation.playid] = Me.playid
End Sub

Hi all - Having a problem getting my macro to run with the ON CLOSE event of a form. Before users exit the form (or database completely), I want the macro to run. The macro is designed to run an update query that updates 3 fields in my main table. Right now, the macro runs and but it only updates 2 of the 3 fields. It's as if the database closes before the update query gets a chance to finish. Any ideas on this?
Thanks,
Dan

Hi all
On closing a report, I am prompted to save it (because I've changed a record source when it opened)
However, I don't want to save it.
Is there an command I could use during the on close event (or something similar) to get rid of the prompts??
Thanks

Is there a way to cancel a form's close event? If a user clicks the form's close button, I want a msgbox to ask if they are sure, and if yes continue and close, else cancel the forms close event. I know how to perform the msgbox and the if statement. I can not figure out how to cancel the form's close event.

I am working with 2 forms and a subform.
frmTaskTracker -subfrmInbox (Datasheet View - based on a query)
frmUpdateInboxItem
subfrmInbox displays a summary of tasks on a task list. The user navigates to frmUpdateInboxItem from frmTaskTracker. After updating a record from frmUpdateInboxItem, it is possible that it the record in question will no longer meet the requirements to have it listed on subfrmInbox.
I have attempted to add code to the on close event of frmUpdateInboxItem to requery the sub form on frmTaskTracker but am not getting the syntax correct.
correct my code? Alternatively is there is a more correct way to do this, I'd be happy to learn it.
Code:
Option Compare Database
Private Sub cmdClose_Click()
Me.[frmTasktracker]![subfrmInbox].Requery
DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmUpdateInboxItem"
End Sub

I have a Main form with a combo box that pulls names from a table. Alongside the combo box is a command button that opens a form which allows the user to edit the names in the table.
The problem: When a user edits a name and closes the edit form, the edit is not immediately displayed in the combo box. However, when the Main form is closed and reopened, the edit is properly displayed. Can I somehow refresh the combo box in the On Close event of the edit form?

I have created a form to select multiple records for a transmittal report. I added a button to the form which I would like to open the report to view the current record. In the On Click event I added the following code:
Private Sub cmdPrint_Click()
Dim strWhere As String
If Me.Dirty Then 'Save any edits.
Me.Dirty = False
End If
If Me.NewRecord Then 'Check there is a record to print
MsgBox "Select a record to print"
Else
strWhere = "[TransmittalID] = """ & Me.[TBLTransmittal.TransmittalID] & """"
DoCmd.OpenReport "RPTDwgTransmittal", acViewPreview, , strWhere
End If
End Sub
The debugger keeps highlighting the row above shown in red. I've used this same code before on other forms and it worked but not sure why it isn't working this time. The only difference with this form and previous ones is that this form contains a multiple values combo checkbox (hope that's the correct term). The query that the report is based on changed the names of the field names so that TransmittalID on the form is TBLTransmittal.TransmittalID in the query.
I've tried the code with and without the extended name but each time the "Do.Cmd..." is highlighted.

Can anyone tell me how to have Access automatically close a report without saving any changes.
I do not mind if the user closes the report manually but do not want Access to prompt the user to save changes. I want it to automatically abandon any changes that were made.

Hello all,
I have a form that takes info from another form and then adds some from it's own data and then it proceeds to print a bunch of reports based on what tests were done etc. When I just print them (With preview) I have a function in the first report that prints (in its Close event) to close the form. No problem. I have a new slick little pdf thing that automatically names the files and puts them in the right spot etc. With this, after the first report is printed it closes thereby closing the form which needs to be open for the rest of the reports to open. Just put the close event on the last report that prints you say? I don't always know which report will be that last, it depends on the tests.
How can I check to see when all the reports have been printed and then close the form. Is there some way to have the form close itself after a certain time? Am I going to have to make the users close the form themselves?
Let me know if this is confusing. Upon reading over this it does sound a bit confusing. Thank you for your help and patience.
Greg

I have a subform that displays results based on selections from cascading boxes on the form. I am trying to print them to a report. I think my procedure is correct for the print button and Im afraid my problem is that the form is not based on a seperate query. Is that they only way to be able to print? It is based on procedures defined in the cascading boxes. How can correct it so it will print the results to a report? Thanx.

I have a report that opens from a command button on a form. The settings on the report are set to pop-up and modal to keep the focus on the report until closed. I like the settings as they are but I need to print the report once it pops up. As the settings go, I cannot access or use the toolbars to print the report. How can I print the report from the pop-up, modal view? :mad:
Thank you in advance for all your help

I'm not sure if this is possible in Access, but I was wondering if there is a way to automatically run an Update query when a report is printed.
More specifically, I have confirmation reports, and I want the date printed and confirmation sent fields to be updated upon printing. I have an update query ready, but because I'm not going to be the person actually doing the work, I'd like the update query to be run automatically.

I have a report that is dependent on the content of a single text box (a student's name). I would like to be able to select multiple names from a listbox and loop through those names to print the reports. So far, no success.
I believe that if I could pass the name of the student during the loop to the text box, the report would print properly.
Below is an attempt to pass the names in the listbox to the textbox.
Set frm = Forms![Student Reports]
Set ctl = frm![lstStudentNames]
For Each vItem In ctl.ItemsSelected
Me.txtCurrentStudentName = ctl.ItemsSelected
Next v Item
Obviously this is not correct. Any ideas?
Thanks.

I have a form which records the progress of a complaint investigation. There are 3 reports I would like to run from this form using command buttons. They are report_long (shows all activity) report_short (summary) and logsheet.
The primary key is complt#.
How do I ensure that the complaint being printed is the complt# I have on the form?

Please bear with my ramblings, but I’m not sure what you may find relevant.
I am currently doing work for a service company where the employees are required to wear the company’s uniform. When someone joins the company they are required to purchase their own uniform. After a year, the company buys the replacement uniform. Each year on the anniversary date, the employee is given their annual evaluation. At that time they are given a requisition to go to the uniform supplier for new uniform articles.
Each item in the uniform has a life span. For example, shirts and pants are replaced each year, winter coats and spring/fall coats are replaced every three years, caps every two years etc.
I have a form which lists the item no., description and cost of each item and when they are due to be replaced. For example
Winter coat last replaced on 2003/11/10, replacement date is calculated to 2006/11/10
When this employee has his evaluation this November, he will be entitled to a new winter coat. The calculations are done by clicking an option button beside the item on the form. Clicking replaces the issue date with Date() and adds three years to the issue date using DateAdd for a new replacement date. Clicking the button also indicates that the item is to be replaced.
NOW, I have all this working.
What I would like to do is find some way of printing the requisition from this form before closing it. Something along the lines of:
If Option1 is yes
Print this item on the requisition
Endif
And do this on every item on the form, if it’s yes, print it on the requisition, if its no ignore it.
The option buttons are not part of the underlying tables or query only part of the form.
If I’m doing this backwards, please let me know. I’m well ahead of my deadline.
