Data On Form Not Saved Fast Enough For Display On Report
Nov 1, 2004
I have a purchase order form that has a subform embedded. After users have filled up the form, they click on a button that will open up a print preview of a report. The report shows the details of the form they entered. However, all the fields on the parent form that are filled up after filling up the subform are not displayed on the report.
The reason is most probably that they have not been saved yet. How can I solve this problem?
I have a piece of code that I'm using to display an image on a report based on a path saved to each record. the code is:
Code: Option Compare Database Private Sub Detail_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer) If IsNull(Me.ImagePath) Then Me.ImgPic.Picture = "O:BellinghamIntranetProductionLabelsNo Label.bmp" Else Me.ImgPic.Picture = Me.ImagePath End If End Sub
It seems like every few months the code crashes access and then never works again. When I debug, the part that is highlighted is:
Code: Me.ImgPic.Picture = Me.ImagePath
The only way i've found to correct it is to delete the report and the module and copy them back in from a backup database. What could be causing this code to crash or how to stabalize my database to prevent this from happening again.
need information in form to write to report before accepted and saved to separate table, so operators can read it. background:manifest information entered into form in receiving office, analysis ran in lab and then entered into form. When analysis is approved, Operators unload material then truck checks out in receiving office. Need to see analysis before it is written from load_temp table to Load table.
I am not sure where this thread should be in forms or queries. I have database which has 3 linked tables by ID in each table. I have built a query on the 3 tables, then created the form.
Now when I enter data on the form and save it, when I open up the said form again , the data is not there. Yet the data is in both the table and query
If I only use 1 table, then there is no problem. The record source for the form is the query, and the query uses the 3 tables.
Hi, I'm new to Access. I'm trying to do a very simple thing but I can't. Let's say I sell a lot of cars, every day so I need a database only to collect info about selling. I need a table (SoldCars) which need refers (read: field) to 2 other tables: 1.Constructor and 2.Model, or only to Model (because Construvctor could be redundant). Anyway, when I register a new sold car, I want a menu in which I can find a Model but not after having chosne the Constructor, so when I choose "Ferrari" then I can only find "Testarossa" and "GTO" and choose one of them. Stored field can be Model, because Constructor is implicit. But I need this tip because let's say I sell thousands of cars per day and I want it to be very quick. Please help or I'll die under piles of cars! Thanks!!!!
I'm using Access 2003: what I need to do is to be able to use a form, which I created already with a sample, 6 fields, table and let the user input the data in the form fields but each time that the user has finished inputting the data, creating a new table with a different name, specified by the user, with the same fields used in the original one!
In more clear terms: replicate the original table every time the user has finished inputting the data, but use a different name that he will choose.
Thank you!!
PS: Be warned that unfortunately it is my first time using access for something so complex (for me).
Can i make an html of login form, whose data is saved in access as back end. I am curious to know. but of course simultaneous saving is considered yes in here...
I have saved query object named qrySearchBill. I wan to call this query through vba and display the result in a subform named subQrySearchBills in datasheet view. Here's how I want it to work:
When the main form loads, I want all unfiltered records to be displayed in the subform initially. The user may then decide to filter based on date range, so he enters startdate and enddate parameter values in their respective textboxes in the main form. Then click search button to run the saved query based on the date range parameter taken from the textboxes.
I have this code so far:
SQL of the saved query object:
Code: PARAMETERS [StartDate] DateTime, [EndDate] DateTime; SELECT tblInvoice.BillNo, tblCrdCustomer.CstName, tblCrdCustomer.CstAddress, tblCrdCustomer.Island, tblInvoice.Date, Sum(tblInvoice.[TotalPrice]) AS Amount FROM tblCrdCustomer INNER JOIN tblInvoice ON tblCrdCustomer.IDNo = tblInvoice.NameID WHERE tblInvoice.Date Between [StartDate] And [EndDate] GROUP BY tblInvoice.BillNo, tblCrdCustomer.CstName, tblCrdCustomer.CstAddress, tblCrdCustomer.Island, tblInvoice.Date;
vba code to call the query and its parameter:
Private Sub btnSearchBill_Click() Dim qdf As DAO.QueryDef Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
Set qdf = CurrentDb.QueryDefs("qrySearchBills")
[Code] ...
This code works fine except that when the main form loads, a prompt window appears to ask for the value of dateStart and dateEnd. I don't want it to prompt because it's suppose to get these values from the main form's textboxes (txtStartDate and txtEndDate respectively), plus it should initially display all the unfiltered records.
I have one more problem about the version 2000 since it was not happen in version 97. I have changed several report formats margin lots of times (for example .25" for left and right margin to fit on one page) and when I open the reports next time or other users access them from the server (since the application residing on the Novel server) the format keep changing back to the default (1" for all margins: top, bottom, left, right)!!
Please let me know if it is a "bug" in Access 2000 and HOW to fix it!!
I am having problem to keep the desired format for reports' margin (left, right, top, bottom) and paper size (letter, legal), and orientation (portrait, landscape) stay!!
Currently, I have one MS Access 2000 database application resides on Novel Netware server version 6.0, [B]although I open the Access database exclusively to change all my reports design to the way I like, and SAVED them properly; however, later when I and other users view those reports, the formats change back to default view, which are "letter size, portrait and all margin set to 1")??
It is very STRANGE and FRUSTRATING and incovenient since all users have to manually go to "Page Setup" of the report's design everytime to change margins to make the data display nicely on one page!! It has never happened like this in version '97!
Plllease let me know if ANYBODY has any SOLUTIONS to this bug of version 2000 of Access?? Or any UPDATE file released to help get rid of it??

I tried DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, "Estimate", acFormatPDF, "c:Test&MyReport&.pdf" but it dosent work.
Iv added a 'subform/subreport' to one of my forms.I wanted to use this to display a report. Therefore i assumed that i would simply set the source object to my desired report and hey presto! But no, when i look in the source object drop down list, my report doesnt appear.how i can display a report within a form??
i have a main form named(EMP) i have a subform named(SEMP)with EMPID i have an another form Named(SDetail) with EMPID i want to open form Sdetail with filter records for data select in subform (SEMP) ,EMPID field Subform SEMP in as datasheet view. i can open sdetail for selected records only
My db has multiple linked tables. As time passes and work on a project continues data needs to be added to a separate table that is linked to the first table to be populated.
i.e., Initial design data is entered first, when drilling is complete more data is added to a linked table, when drilling is surveyed yet more data is added to the second table.
What I want to be able to do is to query for a particular set of existing design data, display this on a form and on the same line enable data entry to other fields from other tables which are linked to the existing design data.
Hi all, I converted one database from sqlbase to access. It is so fast in sqlbase. But so slow in access. Taking time to run the query. I need to make it fast. Any help please. :confused:
I have some images stored in a SQL Table which is linked into Access. These images have to be stored in the database as I also reference them on other platforms (Android, Web etc).
In my Access programme I need to display a continuous form / report showing each image. Now, good old Access cannot display multiple images stored in the database on a continuous form. It can only do this if it is referencing the path to the image.
When the user views the form they will only see about 12 images at a time. I thought of a workaround which is to write the database images back to file to a local temp directory when the user loads the form. The user would be happy to wait for say 10 to 15 seconds whilst the form loads.
However, I cannot find an efficient algorithm to write the images back to a file. The one I am using is a BinarytoString algorithm by motobit which is fine for very small images, but anything over 100kb (which is still pretty small) it goes sooooo slow.
How to quickly write an image stored as a long binary in an Access DB back to a file? Or do I need to crack open my Visual Studio and write some C# DLL to use instead...?
Not all the choices (numeric codes) for my form's option box are being saved to the associated table.
I am using the options choices in the option group to enter data into a table and do additional things - clicking one option is supposed put a code in the table and then take you another form, while clicking a different option will make a new option box visible so I can collect additional data.
My option group has three options, only the data from the second option, which makes a second option group visible, is being saved in the table. If someone clicks on the first or thrid option, which takes them to another form, the data from that option choice does not get saved to the table.
Wondering if anyone can help here? I am currently working on a form that needs to display data from 3 unique queries - a crosstab query and two standard queries (one has line by line data and another summary data) that do not have a common link.
What is the best way to do this? Would it be possible to display the results of each of these queries in a single form by creating 2 subforms from 2 of the queries and placing them in the form of the 3rd?
Any suggestions on how to combine the data from the 3 queries into the 1 form would be much appreciated!!!
i want to do a report that display the data according to a form. for example: in the form i write the name of the company and 2 dates and i click the button and it opens me a report that contains data about this specific company and between those two dates.i thought i could do this with creating queries and when you write in the form it changes the criterias (the criterions) of the queries and the report will be based on the queries.how form can change the criterion of a query. or is there better way to display specific data according to a form.
and i have related question: i did a form that has a sub form (i mean a table in my form) and textbox. i wanted that when you write in the text box, for instance, name of someone the subform display all the rows which contains this name. but i cant connect the textbox to the subform, it only displays the rows that which contains this name but it does it in it own order.
I am creating a database to store employee data, its divided among 3 tables, storing :Employment data,Personal data and Payment data, the 3 tables are related using a 1-1 relationship between the common field ID in each. I`ve created a form through which all data needed for the fields in each table is entered,while entering the data its possible to view the records, however, when i close the form and check the tables, the data is going to the respective tables,however,after i open the table and then go back to the form, its not possible to view the records in the form, they`re still in the table but i cant view them through the form, i can still add new records using the form, but i`m not seeing the old records anymore. Anyone, help?
