View RepliesQuite often I'll make a "training" version of the backend database so that people can "play" (or should I say get training) on dummy data without them having to worry about ruining the live data.
If my real data is in a file called RealData.mdb and my dummy data is in a file called TrainingData.mdb, I want to display this name prominently on my menu form. Thus they can then change the link on the front end to the real or dummy data as required BUT have a reminder as to which they're on.
How can I do this? Further rather than using the file name, could I use one of the database properties (say Title) to display a more friendly text name?
thanks,
Simon
I wish to display my database file name on a form.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a header/detail form working well. I use a Dsum to update a TOTAL field in the header - based on all the detail records for that Header.
However, I want to 'filter' or condition the records which the form will initially display from the Header file. I have a conditioning field (Invoice date) in the header which should 'block' it from display on the form. I may also desire to SORT the selected Headers record into a different sequence before display...
Looks like any "filtering" I try on the header table makes it difficult to go back and update the TOTAL in the Header?

I created a query with: Between [Forms]![Dummy]![StartDate:] And [Forms]![Dummy]![EndDate:] in it.
I created a Form with two text boxes named StartDate and EndDate and appropriate labels and buttons.
I then Created a Report, which prompts for dates and finds the data between the given Dates correctly.
Now the problem: When I create a text box in the report of the following form, I get ?Name? error on the Report: =[Forms]![Form Name]![StartDate] This should work?
Can you help me solve this last problem and acheive a good working program?

I've got a report/invoice that i want to print out with a simple header picture for the company. For reasons i cannot fathom the picture will not print. Print preview, Report view, print as PDF, XPS and even copy to a word doc all display the picture, but when i send it to any printer the header does not show.I have checked every setting i can find.
Visible = Yes
Display when = Always
deleted, save and closed, re-inputted, still nothing.
compact and repair after delete re-input after compact, still nothing.
Added the file to local directory, still not showing
I can even add a border around the picture which it will print but not the image itself.I've tried .png .jpg and .jpeg file types (Same image its just a logo).
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??
View 1 Replies View RelatedWhat I am trying to do is have the user click a button to open a report based on the current specification they are updating. Now for each specification there are multiple revisions so i added a 'revision history' table. When the user prints the specification, I only want the latest revision number, date, and rev descr to show. I tried using the following:
Private Sub Report_Load()
Dim db As Database
Dim Rev As Recordset
Set db = CurrentDb()
Set Rev = db.OpenRecordset("SELECT tblRevisionHistory.revnum, tblRevisionHistory.revdate, tblRevisionHistory.revision FROM tblRevisionHistory;")
Rev.MoveLast
Me.Text23 = Rev.Fields("revnum")
Me.Text26 = Rev.Fields("revdate")
Me.Text28 = Rev.Fields("revision")
End Sub
The above only showed me the last record in the table regardless of the specification number filter.
hey everyone . .
i've got a report which pulls its data from a query. it pulls these fields:TestCode...Price...HID...Month...etc . . .
There are names of "TestCode" that we don't want to display, is there a way to filter certain "TestCodes" out? if so, how?
Here's my current SQL Code:
I have a query which pulls certain records from a table, here is my SQL statement:
SELECT [qryGroupByAMCount].[TestCode], [qryGroupByAMCount].[Price], [qryGroupByAMCount].[HID], [qryGroupByAMCount].[Month], [qryGroupByAMCount].[CountOfAutoNumber], IIf([TESTCODE]="PTCGCD",[CountOfAutonumber]*2,IIf([TESTCODE]="LSHABC",[CountofAutonumber]*4,IIf([TESTCODE]="HPVPNL",[CountOfAutonumber]*2,IIf([TESTCODE]="TOXOAB",[CountofAutonumber]*2,[CountofAutonumber])))) AS Extended

I am looking for help to to generate a command line to automatically run a report within a windows program I am using. The program I use has command line fields to automatically open the access report when I complete my program session. I have tested the command line with a standard C:.... .exe to open Word, Access, etc.
I have tried using the create shortcut and snapshot methods without success and wondering if a macro is needed (havent a clue).
Hoping someone can help!

I'm sure this is a no brainer for those in the know - but I dont!
So how do I display the total number of records at the end of a report?
so i'm trying to create a report that only displays certain fields per record based on another field in that record. To clarify: [Type] is a numeric field holding either 1, 2, or 3. I have a function that is instructed to display (ie, change from not visible to visible) a certain combination of fields depending on the number in [Type] when the form is opened. I assume I would have to go through all the records individually (do loop until), but i'm not sure if this works in a report.
is there any way to have different fields displayed for different records within the same report??
Thanks

My database includes a Project table and a Status table. They are linked by the ProjectID. The status table contains records sorted by date pertaining to work accomplished on each project.

How can I accomplish this?

I'm using Access 2007.

I can't figure out how to display the Pcode in a report.....
I would like to ask about on how to display my attached pictures to my report. I'm using MS Access 2007 and I have a table names:
Projects - ProjectID, ProjectName, StartDate, EndDate;
Task - TaskID, ProjectID, TaskName, Pictures;
Picture datatype is Attachment and it is multi-valued field so I created a query to extract picture per ProjectID and to be used as a Subreport. Query results shown below:
ProjectID Attachment
11 tulip.jpg
11 hill.jpg
10 panda.jpg
10 shark.jpg
Now, I have created the sub report and linked it Project table. Result is the pictures add up vertically or downward where there is a big space on the right side, I want to have it from left to right or horizontally.
