Emailing Single Record From A Rather Large Form
Feb 28, 2005Hi fellow Access battlers!
I've searched high and low on this forum on a step by step on how to do this and everyone's answer is either vague and assumes everyone is an access wizard, or really complex and codey and assumes every one is an access wizard!
I have a "lead sheet database" and I need to add a button on the form which emails just the contents of that current record. My company still handwrites these lead sheets and faxes them to consultants so I'm trying to bring them into the 21st century! An uphill struggle. I'm a code and VB newb by the way.
I've tried sending the form to a report as other posts suggest, but I get an error message about there being too many fields. So I'm stuck. All I need is for each form record to be emailed to a different consultant each day.
(I've had to rar then zip the database file due to size restrictions. I couldn't get the files size down enough by just zipping.)
Thankyou!
Reports :: Emailing A Record / Report / Form From Within Access
Aug 7, 2015My 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?
Embedded Audio Question
Jul 14, 2005Ladies and Gentlemen,
I am needing to develop an audio catalog and would like to know if anyone has experience with embedding audio in an Access database. The ideal situation would be to have all audio contained within the database, however, some of the audio files may be quite large and I don't want to bog down the entire database by having 100MB files in there either.
So I guess my question simply is; if my audio files are 50MB or larger, embed or link?
Thanks for any advice.
Embedded Ole Object Disappears
Jun 28, 2007In the form view of the db I have a bound box for an embedded ole object
I use it to embed Word documents for each db entry (The database is for works of art and the Word document is the description of each work of art which often contains Chinese Characters, hence the Word Document)
The box is set to show an icon (The Word Icon)
Upon entering the data and moving off the record, subsequent return to to the record sometimes shows that the icon is gone from the box, it is blank.
Clicking the blank box brings up the Word Document but then closing the Word Document and re-clicking the blank box dos not bring up the Word Document.
The standard message saying that the ole object is empty appears and all the data from the Word Document is lost.
this has only happened since moving to Office 2007. I upgraded the db to 2007 format and we are using Word 2007.
A Google of the symptoms doesn't bring any meaningful results, does anyone have any ideas?
I tried to keep this as short as possible (which wasn't easy) if you need more info just ask
Thanks
Embedded Excel OLE - Need To ZOOM!
Sep 29, 2005I have an embedded excel workbook on an Access form (Access 2002)
I would like to change the zoom of the excel "view".
I've tried this:
' xlCharts is an embedded XL workbook
xlCharts.Object.Parent.ActiveWindow.Zoom = 100
I get an error that says:
"Unable to set the Zoom property of the Window class"
However, if I READ the zoom level, it works fine. The zoom property of the window class in excel is read/write, but this may not be the case for embedded OLE objects. Is there another way? Does anyone have any ideas?
Embedded For Next Loop Based On Value
Feb 18, 2008Ok, say I have a table with the following fields, custid, mainnum, subnum
whereas the data would look like this:
Code:Cust Main SubA101 1 2A101 2 1A101 3 4A101 4 2A101 5 3B202 1 2B202 2 4B202 3 1C303 1 2C303 2 1
The main number always counts up from 1 on each new customer, I already have code to do this. I am running a for next loop based on the highest main number (I already have this part), for instance, for Cust A101, the for next loop would essentially be: for x = 1 to 5.... like I said, I have this part.
What I want to do when x is counting, to pull up the mainnum value that equals the value in the for/next (in other words equals X), and run a for next loop based on the sub number based for that record. For example using C303's data:
Code:For X = 1 to MaxOfMainNum '<---I already have this 'code to pull up subnum where mainnum=X For Y=1 to SubNum_For_Selected_Mainnum 'I will be doing an insert to table here custid,x,y Next YNext X
The parts in Bold in the above code is what I'm needing an answer to.
I tried to be as concise as possible, but I know it might be confusing.
Thanks in advance,
Benji
Forms :: Embedded Value Into Table

General :: Embedded Excel Files
Feb 14, 2013pretty Excel sheet full of conditional formatting that is used as a vehicle assignment board where I work. I know I can embed the file into an Access form using an unbound object, and therefore "integrate" it into Access, however this creates a copy of the file, and therefore when people change the sheet, the original Excel file is not updated. Is there any way to embed the excel file in such a way that the Excel document itself is also updated? Basically some sort of an active, two-way link rather than what amounts to just importing a copy of it? I need to be able to pull data from various cells in that Excel file so it needs to be kept up-to-date.

Embedded Table Showing ID's Rather Than Text Labels
Jun 2, 2006I apologise in advance for my newbish question - I'm very green at Access. I'm trying to build a contact database for our company that lists Jobs done by customer.
I'll confess I "borrowed" the sample database provided with Access to help me out - which has worked well up until this issue.
The problem I am having is when I am working on our "Client Service History" form. (Basically the Workorders by Customer from the template - I can take a screen grab or something if it helps).
This form includes a sub-table which lists the WorkOrder ID by customer, the Date Entered, the Job Type, the Engineer and whether it was chargeable. The latter three options are choices controlled by combo boxes from the Workorders Form/Table. Where the status for "Chargeable" always comes up correctly, the Job Type and Engineer always show a number - which I presume is the ID of the label of each type - I.e. "5" refers to "Warranty Repair".
There are separate Data Tables for Engineers (EmployeeID) and Job Types (JobTypes). How do I get it to display each item correctly; as a summary of jobs done for each customer?
Any help would be particularly appreciated!!! :D
Command Button To Switch Between Subforms (embedded)
May 20, 2005I need command button(s) to switch between subforms on a mainform in only one subform window (one subform already set as default). So in other words, I don't want a command button to open up new forms (I know how to do that); I need to minimize the amount of subforms and forms I have open by only having a few major user interfaces.
Sorry for the terse beginning, I thought ^ would help when u run your mouse over the topic and get the first line of the message so ppl knew what I was on about instead of "hello please help me" hehe. Now for greetings: Hi folks, great site, helped me silently for awhile but now I gotta ask for help.
In the scheme of things, I'm still a newb; I've learnt a whole lot real fast, but I need a "short cut". I've looked in the forum and found one relevant message but it was a little too brief (a higher knowledge level than mine).
The message I referred to earlier mentioned "toggling visibile property" (?) and also "setfocus" - I need that clarified and fleshed out please.
*Note* My Visual Basic: IsNull, Else If Not IsNull (Me.ShockingandBasic). Me.Junkee Brewster = learns really fast when shown.
I know a bit about command buttons and I don't usually have problems with forms or anything like that, but I cannot conceptially understand how I can have extra subforms linked to show up in my default subform window
I would rain diamonds (I'm working on it) on the person who has the time/patience to give a little "step-by-step" dialogue (including how to chuck in those extra subforms); don't be afraid to patronize me, spell it out if you like (err, please do infact) :) Thankyou kindly.
Forms :: Embedded Macro - If True Go To Control
May 21, 2013I'm trying to create a simple embedded macro for a checkbox control on a form [Company?]. The default value for this checkbox is No.
I want to write an If statement that basically says "If[Company?] = Yes, then GotoControl[CompanyorNameCombo], Else GotoControl[CustomerFN]
Although the checkbox field label and the control itself IS named [Company?] in the table and set as a Yes/No field, when I try to write the If statement I get an error that says "Microsoft Access cannot find the name 'Company?' you entered in the expression"
That's the name of the control and it is included in the table and shows in the field list.
Queries :: Limit On Embedded IF Statement In Query
May 23, 2014I have the following code

IIf([Q13]=2,"GAP",IIf([Q14]=2,"GAP",""))))))))))))))
I need to add Q15 and Q16 but there appears to be a limit on how many IIf statements I can embed and I get an error that my formula is too complex.

View 6 Replies View RelatedReport With Embedded Subform Pivot Chart
May 21, 2014I am having a terrible time getting this to work. I have a mainform that contains 11 multi-list boxes. That mainform when I select whatever I want in any of the 11, select all items in each of the 11, or select nothing and click my show results works great. In my detail section it displays the information it should. I need to now take that and put it in a report with a pivot graph. I created a subform that is my pivotgraph and the reason for a subform is the end-user still wants the ability to filter more should they choose.
In addition, the regular graph you can put in the report does not allow me to put in multiple items. For instance I need to have sumofmbrstargeted and sumofmbrsconverted in the values and it will say I can only choose 1 value and then it will say up to 6 items and I have a 8. So, I opted for a subformpivotchart. If I create the following code, the subform updates based on the filters on this mainform everytime. Works like a charm.
Code:
Private Sub cmdGetGraph_Click()
DoCmd.OpenForm "Graph", acFormPivotChart, , GetFilterFromListBoxes
End Sub
The problem is, I want the Graph in my Report. If I take the Report and do the same basic thing:
Code:
Private Sub cmdGetReport_Click()
DoCmd.OpenReport "Search", acViewPreview, , GetFilterFromListBoxes
End Sub
It asks for the parameters again. Example, LOB, Plan, Prod_NM. I tried just disregarding the report and created yet another subform for the reporting piece and embedded the graph and that still asked for the parameters. It works great for the subform as the graph and I want to have the ability to use the GetFilterFromListBoxes, apply it to the Search Report with the embedded Graph.

View 2 Replies View RelatedEmbedded Pics Create Huge File Size
Jun 27, 2006I'd read a few places that embedding pics wasnt the greatest of ideas, but I thought that 1 JPG embedded onto 2 forms would be ok and would prevent the pic from being deleted or moved. (Theyre always screwing with the server here.) But it's making my DB huge.
No pics embedded
Size: 808kB
1 Pic Embedded into 2 forms
Pic Size: 156k JPG
DB Size: 135 MB
Is this normal? I could understand a 156k pic adding somewhere around 156k to my DB, but 134 megs? Anyone have any insight?
Parameter Query With An Embedded Quote String Problem
Sep 19, 2006Hi Folks,
I'm sorry to be stupid, here, but I can't get this to work. I have a parameter query that forms the basis for a report. To get the value for the query, I have a form on which the user selects the value they want from a combo box (cboProgram). The values in the combo box include all of the programs used in the file plus a value called "All" which means - just include all the records. My problem is that when "All" is selected in the combo box, no records are returned.
Things to mention:
"All" has a value of 1 in the lookup table.
I tried the query with the actual values and it works fine. The problem is when I try to do it from the combo box.
My first attempt was to put:
iif([forms]![frmFormName]![cboPrograms]=1, "*", [forms]![frmFormName]![cboPrograms]) in the criteria for that field in the criteria box for lngPrograms.
Access' response was that the criteria value was too complicated to resolve.
So, I noticed that I wasn't saying 'Like "*"' in the first part, but if that's the problem then I can't get the numbers of quotes right. I also tried switching the iif statement around and saying <>1,[forms]..., else some version of 'Like "*", but that didn't work either.
Then I queried around the forum and found a recommendation to make a function to return the value, so I did the following:
In the criteria for the field in the query:
IfAll([forms]![frmFormName]![cboPrograms])
And in a module:
Public Function IfAll(ProgSel)
Select Case ProgSel
Case 1
IfAll = "Like ""*"""
Case Else
IfAll = ProgSel
End Select
End Function
I'm still not getting it. If "All" is selected, value = 1, then no recorsd are returned. Can anyone help me out please?
Gratefully,

Linking An Embedded Image From A Form To All Reports And Other Forms
Mar 4, 2005I thought this would be pretty simple, but I cannot figure out how and wasn't able find the solution here or anyway.
I have a source form. (I can resort to having a Table with OLE Object if I must, but prefer not to.) On this source form I wish to include different things such as company logo. This will determine what logo shows up in all the reports, so all the reports will have an image linking back to this embedded image on the source form.
Pseudo-code Example:
frmSource contains imgLogo
rptSample contains an image whose
control source = Forms!frmSource!imgLogo
How can I do this or achieve the same effect in a more-or-less simple way?
TIA

Sep 29, 2013I have code that automatically send emails out from an Access Customer Contacts Database. I am using Access and Outlook 2007 but the code needs to work with later versions of Access and Outlook.
I have very poor knowledge of coding and usually manage to cobble something together from looking at other code on the net but don't understand most of it.
I have the following code which works perfectly except I want to be able to embed an image in the email body (not have the image as an attachment but actually show it in the body of the email).
Most of the code I have found around this topic is too complex for me to understand and utilise within the context of the code I have.
Ideally I want to take the image from an attachment field in a table returned by the "tblMailingList_Query".
Code:
Private Sub Command10_Click()
Dim MyDB As Database
Dim MyRS As Recordset
Dim objOutlook As Outlook.Application
Dim objOutlookMsg As Outlook.MailItem
