I am using Access 2000, Windows XP and Groupwise 6.5. I am trying to email an employee leave report using the SendObject method. I would like to use the SnapShot format. Must I save the report before I send it? I tried acFormatSNP with no success. Thanks for all your help.

Im having problems referring to the object, can someone help with like the syntax. Im trying to apply the sql statement that is generated to the preview window and the report.
All help will be appreciated.,
Here's my problem. I run a database every monday that has several (more than 15) reports as the outcome. Due to the massive amount of information we can't build the data up every week. We need to overwrite the tables and recreate the "Reports" every week. The department I am creating this for wants to keep a snapshot on the computer of the 15+ reports instead of printing them out. But instead of simply creating a snapshot of each individual report he would like to see them in the format of one file with multiple sheets. The one file would be labeled the date the reports were created and each individual sheet would be labeled the name of the report. For example, This past monday when we rant he Db the file would have been lbld 10-3-05, and one of the many sheets would have been labeled "Selects", or "Rejects" or "Cost" and so on. Does anyone have any suggestions?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have set up a database that holds wedding list details for our shop. The product images are not held in the database itself - I have linked to them using VBA as outlined in the microsoft access help pages.
Now I can print a report absoluely fine, but I can't capture the report to send as an email to wedding guests. A snapshot isn't good enough as I don't want our customers having to download software. I thought maybe I could export the report to Word and then email that as an attachment. However, when I export the report, there are no images in the resulting Word document.
Does anyone have any ideas? I primarily need ease of use for the customers picking up the email at the other end.
Hope someone can help!
Hi all,
Access 2000
Wondering if there is anyway to setup a report to automatically run and e-mail out at a certain time each day? I currently have a button on a form, based on a macro, that when clicked, will e-mail the report to a certain user. Just wondering if there is anyway to set it to send at a certain time, without having to open the database and manually run it.
Thanks in advance.

I have a button on a form to email a report.This is the code:
Private Sub EmailSfRpt_Click()
Dim strWhere As String
strWhere = "[Property Number] = " & Me.[Property Number]
DoCmd.OpenReport "SQ FT/LN FT ITEMS REPORT REV", acPreview, , strWhere
DoCmd.SendObject acSendReport, "SQ FT/LN FT ITEMS REPORT REV", acFormatPDF
End Sub
What is the code to close the report after the report is sent?
Well im close to putting my DB into action, but I'd like to have a form that will show a list of queries and reports where they can be selected and emailed. I would like to be able to choose one or many files. I have created the email module and its working fine, I just thought I could make it a bit easier to send multipule reports with the click of a button. I just can't find a way to list all my queries/reports in a dropdown list. Can someone send me a suggestion on how to do this if posible.. Thanks in advance.

I have many reports that are structured differently, many are grouped by semester.
What I do now, is put a button on each grouping of the report I want to email from and use the current semester (Sem) which is also a query parameter to filter the report.
Here is my current code which works fine:
Sub EmailFromReport(rpt As Report, Optional Sem As Variant)
Dim db As Database
Dim qry As QueryDef
Dim rs As Recordset
Dim Bcc As String
Dim Subject As String
Set db = CurrentDb
Set qry = CurrentDb.QueryDefs(rpt.RecordSource)
'set query parameters
[code]....
The problem is, I need to be able to filter these queries on other criteria besides the semester.
My first idea was to use if statements to skip the records I don't want. This is messy and the report structures are different so I run into issues when using optional parameters because not all the reports are structured the same.
The best solution I have come up with so far is using a wherefilter parameter, stripping the semi colon off the querydef sql and surrounding the sql with a qrydef.SQL = "SELECT Email1, Email2 FROM (" qrydef.SQL ") WHERE " & wherefilter.
The problem is this, changes the original query, and I can't figure out how to copy a query with db.CreateQueryDef If i do db.CreateQueryDef("tempqry",qrydefSQL), I lose the query parameters.
Is there a better way to do this? If this is the best way, how do you take an existing query and make a copy of it?
I have a database that is strictly for generating and printing work orders. Our supervisors use it to print new work orders on the fly. normally that is fine. I have the Vb to print that specific work order
what I need to create is a VB that would allow other people to create a work order that would email it to the those supervisors. email addresses will always be the same. I just dont want to send the entire report.
I have a table, each row contains information that I want email out as a pdf.
I've created a report, and at the moment I've created a button embedded with the onscreen report which emails the report I'm actually looking at onscreen (as an attachment), all the button is doing is event-on click running this VBA code...
Code:
DoCmd.SendObject acSendReport, "rptSalesReceiptMain_UK", acFormatPDF, DLookup("[Email]", "[Sales]", "[PrintInvoice]=True"), , , "VAT Receipt for your order", "As requested, please find your VAT sales receipt attached"
...it all works, but it's very manual....because I have to open up each report manually, & then click the button manually to create the email
Since I have the main 'chunky' parts done (i.e. creating the report & the code that emails it when I click a button), I'm now turning my attention to automating.
I'd like to add a new true/false column to my table "Receipt Emailed" (or similar) & have a bit of VBA hunt down the column, then it comes across a false condition, it runs the report & emails it.
Therefore rather than me opening the report & clicking on the button (which runs vba code), how do I get this done automatically?
I have limited access knowledge and everything I learned about access was from youtube videos and reading online. I have only used the features that do not require coding/programming (tables/queries/reports).
this is my problem. I am the secretary of a social boat club (about 300 members) in charge of producing invoices. I created a my member table with general data, applied a query to create a Dues&Fees Table and then I created an Invoice report from this table..etc. Right now I have a final report, with 300 invoices that i could easily print and mail. However, people are asking to have their invoice emailed and I was wondering if there is a way to mass email each individual invoice to each individual member of the club.
I am using access 2010...and i have a form with a combobox on it...and in that combobox shows a list of employees names. When i currently select the name of the person that i want, it creates their own individual report of their workload.What I want to do is to be able to select that person and it generates their individual report and then attaches it in an email to that individual.
View 9 Replies View RelatedMy database is stores information about students such as name, student number, programme, email, etc. I have a STUDENT form with this information visible.
I also have a another table and MARKS sub form that contains the details of courses completed by the student and results. I have placed the sub form in the STUDENT form and can see each student's details and a list of their courses.
I want to be able to send this information to the relevant student via email. The student should only receive his information and no one else's.
Can this be done? Do I need to create a report first? Should I be using WORD to produce the emails?

They have been complaining that the Snapshot Views of reports they are running are stopping the print queue by asking to load paper type 'bond' to the printer. I have checked the Snapshot Viewer printer settings on thoses machines and indeed they are defaulting to 'paper type - bond'. Setting the paper type to Plain or Unspecified will only print on that type for that instance. Is there anywhere to set the default paper type, i cannot find anything!!

Each day I produce reports from access and email then out using the snapshot viewer format. The majority of recipients open this find and the report is absolutely fine, however, when other recipients open the report it comes out all slanted and blurred. It almost looks like there snapshot viewer is squashing a landscape report into a portrait view. Does anyone know how to correct this, as its driving me mad trying to find an answer?
thanks:)
I have the following button on a form:
When I press it a mail is being send with a snapshot attached to it
Instead of a snapshot I want it to attach it as a word document.
Here you see the code that is used. I noticed it says snapshot format on a line but I don't know what the name is for a word document.
Code:Private Sub cmdMail_Click()On Error GoTo Err_cmdMail_Click Dim stDocName As String Dim V_EmailAdres As String If Not (IsNull(Me.HauliersEMAIL.Value)) And Me.HauliersEMAIL.Value <> "" Then V_EmailAdres = Me.HauliersEMAIL.Value Else V_EmailAdres = "" End If stDocName = "TransportOrder" DoCmd.SendObject acReport, stDocName, "Snapshot Format", V_EmailAdres, , , "Transport Order BP", ""Exit_cmdMail_Click: Exit SubErr_cmdMail_Click: MsgBox Err.Description Resume Exit_cmdMail_Click End Sub

Hello,
I am using a useful function to save data of a form using the snapshot utility. I open the form, add or change data and sent the form to other users via e-mail. The snapshot uses a report. The code to do this is the following:
Me.Refresh
DoCmd.SendObject acReport, "EmailmyForm", "SnapshotFormat(*.snp)", "", "", "", "Action Required", "Please take action on the attached case.", False, ""
I was now thinking if it is possible to save the shapshot report as a file directly into a selected folder on my S drive (ex. S0000abmyfolder. I will need that the file is automatically named for my with the SSN present on the form.
Any idea or help? Thanks.
Is there a way via code in a module to automatically create a snapshot of a report, save it in a specifed folder location in the code and save it as the current date as the file name when a button is clicked.
I'm looking on how to do this as I have many reports to create, move to an intranet folder and then name it to the current date. It will save me lots of time if this can be done automatically.
I am using MS Access 2000 and the folder location will be on my hard drive.
Thanks

For some reason, I can no longer create snapshot files of my Access reports. I used to be able to do it on my computer.
I have downloaded the recent snapshot download from microsoft.com but have had no luck.
Can anyone help?
Thanks
First off, hello to everyone here. I have been using these forums for a couple of months now and they have helped me solve many, many problems.
I've not needed to register before now because everything I needed to find out I was able to find an answer for, so THANK YOU:)
Anyways, back to business............................
I've built a reporting application where the users basically enter details on a form that performs a few lookups to autofill some info and they input the rest.
What happens next is when they submit the 'form', it appends details to a table and sends an email with the details entered to an address specified by a populated text box on the form
One of 3rd party contractors has requested we send this info in .snp format instead of just referencing the textboxes in the body of the mail.
I have created a duplicate of the form in snapshot but cannot figure out how to do the following:
1. Reference the open form to populate the fields
2. Then attach this to the email
Any help would be greatly appreciated.......as I'm tearing my hair out (and I don't really have much left to tear out anyway)
Many thx in adv
I'm using the Snapshot Viewer control in one of my forms to display reports within the form. This works fine, except that with multiple page reports, there is no button to change pages, users have to right click and select 'next page.' In design mode the buttons to change pages and print appear at the bottom, but for some reason they don't show up when viewing the form in form view.
Has anyone run into this issue before?
Thanks

hi
i am using a macro with the outputTo method for a report. i have the report outputed as a snapshot file. it was working fine but now when it outputs the report the extension is missing; the file is created but with no extension. i tried changing the output format to excel but the extension was still missing. i also tried renaming my output report within the macro with the extension .snp and with .xls. snapshot viewer or excel would not open these programs.
anybody else come across this problem?
any ideas?
thanks
Using the access ‘Mail Report’ function, the ‘send’ dialog box comes up to select format… Is there a way to pre-select the snapshot format using code.?
