Forms :: Email Current Record In PDF Format
May 23, 2013
I am new to Access. I am using Access 2010. I have searched and found several articles on emailing the current record shown on a form but haven't been able to get any of them to work.
My goal is to have a user input information onto the form and then have one button the user will click that will save the current record, email the current record in pdf, and then close the form.
The form name is: frmCorrectiveActions. The unique identifier for a record is: Corrective Action ID.
The last coding I tried is below. I know something is wrong but have copied this code from another post about emailing forms so I'm not even sure what half of it means.
I am getting the message Run-time error '3075': Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression "Corrective Actions ID = 23' and when I hit debug this is highlighted: qry.SQL = strSQL
form Private Sub Email_Click()
Dim qry As DAO.QueryDef
Dim strSQL As String
Dim ReportQueryName As String
ReportQueryName = "qryCorrectiveActions"
Set qry = CurrentDb.QueryDefs(ReportQueryName)
[Code] ....

I'm really new at this Access database, but I've managed to create a database, tables, forms, macros, report and a switchboard, most of which work. Printing the current form command button works great.
I really need to email the current form or record, but can't seem to figure it out. I can email the report using the snapshot format, which is what I'm after, but it includes every record. If I email the form, the format has to be chosen and it doesn't look like the report.
Can someone help me with this? Thanks so much, Jolene

I'm having trouble with a tricky conditional format in a continuous subform.
The criteria is based on field [GroupNo] when it changes (increases) which are always listed in numerical order.
Basically all I want to is for the text box colour to alterante (eg blue & yellow)when GroupNo changes value
So it would look something like this....
Group NoID (highlight colour)
1 (yellow)
1 (yellow)
1 (yellow)
2 (blue)
2 (blue)
2 (blue)
3 (yellow)
3 (yellow)
etc etc
btw, although values will always be in order they may not all be output, so it's not just case of odd, even, odd, even (that would be too easy!)
I can retrieve the Previous Record's GroupNo value (via a function) in another text box and compare current GroupNoID with this in the Format Expressions and manage to change the colour, but it won't sustain this new colour for the subsequent same GroupNos, obviously as the values have changed.
So how can I....
Change the colour when the value changes.
Keep this new colour until it the value changes (increases) again.
Many Thanks

I am using Access 2010 and I want to be able to open a blank email addressed to the contact I am viewing in my Access form. I have been successful in creating a button which opens Outlook, but I don't know what code to put in the 'To' field of the EmailDatabaseObject page so that it picks up the email address of the contact I am looking at.

We're using Access 2010 on Windows 7.We have a large database design where we send reports as e-mail attachments. We need to change the way the file is automatically created when sent. I goes to snapshot form every time we attach it to an e-mail. How can we get rid of the snapshot .snp file format? How can we change it to pdf or accbd?

I have a table with fields for the year, dues, and a Boolean field that indicates whether or not its record is the current year record.
I have a form based on the table that is used to update the table.
My business rule is that only one record can have the "current year" field checked.
I am working with the Form_Before_Update event. What I would like to happen is if the person selects the "current year" check box and if there is already another record with its check box selected, my code will realize that the user has selected a second record and undo the check box and cancel the event.
Question: Looking for code that would check for the second record being checked and back out the user's check for that record?
Note: I have to account for not only the user clicking the record selector to try and save the record, but also the case where they check the box, then click on the "close form" button that I created.

i've designed a rental database (which seems to do what i want) - it's not perfect....
But i can't figure out how to accomplish this.
If i have a tenant, who has previously had a lease agreement on one of my properties, but then moves out, and then moves into one of my new properties, i can't seem to see how to get access to display just the new lease details.
I've attached a blank copy of the DB with some sample data to illustrate this.
you will see that test tenant has two leases, one expired lease, and one active lease, but on the main form it just shows the expired (original lease)....

When I run this code to delete the form's current record, the Me.Requery throws error #3167 (Record is deleted) and leaves "#Deleted" in all of the fields.
Private Sub DeleteProfessional_Click()
Dim MyDatabase As Database
Dim rstProfessionals As DAO.Recordset
Set rstProfessionals = Form_Professional.RecordsetClone
If (rstProfessionals.RecordCount = 0) Then
MsgBox ("There are no Professionals to delete!")

i have a database
two tables: Addresses, Instructions
One form_one subform: User form
The user form contains set of instructions for each company that we take care off, the sub-form has all of the addresses for the company, these come from the "Address" table, the two are linked via a field called "companyID" so the subform only displays the addresses for the current company being viewed on the form.
The problem is, on the subform there is a dropdown box called "administrator" and this is used to select the person who is looking after the company. Some of the companies have hundreds of addresses, so when i click the next record button on the subform I have to fill in the administrator again for every address for the same company. Is there a way using vba or a simple function to auto update all of the "administrator" dropdown boxes for that company based on the administrator I select for the first address.

I have a form with command buttons to preview reports. For some reason only the first record shows up on the reports and not the current record.

I have a list of patients that are seeing various clinicians in a clinic. Currently everything is on paper and when a patient arrives we highlight their name on the list. So now that I'm finally moving everything paperless, I want to have the record become "highlighted" when I select patient has arrived. The only problem is as it's a continuous form, the formatting changes on all records. Here is the screenshot before anyone arrives:
Those are two separate records that you see. Behind all of those fields is a box coloured #E7F442 (optic yellow-ish). What I want is when I select "Arrived" from the dropdown, for the fields on the left (name, number, appointment type, etc) to become transparent so the yellow shows through and looks highlighted. I've used this code:
Code:
Private Sub ATCST_AfterUpdate()
If Me.ATCST = "Arrived" Then
Me.RGBCHID.BackStyle = 0
Me.PATNAME.BackStyle = 0
Me.TCDESC.BackStyle = 0
Me.VISPURP.BackStyle = 0
Me.ATCMNT.BackStyle = 0
Me.ATTIME.BackStyle = 0
Me.ATCST.BackStyle = 0
[code]....
Making the whole code utterly useless, as it's changing the formatting on every record. Is there a way to program this so the formatting changes only affect the record I'm working on at that moment?

In Access 2010 I have built a FORM which has several records of several people. I am trying to email one record only to a certain person from that FORM. If I use the access email button it opens outlook but it sends all the records in the FORM to the person. I have tried even to use the micro, but still it attach all the records in the FORM and send it all as one bundle to other.

I have made a navigation form that prints the current record out as a PDF and also the option to send the current record by email as a PDF. Both work perfect when you open the form outside the navigation form. But when you open it inside the navigation form, it does not print any of the information.
The problem is in the Query report, In the criteria box for field [RequsetID] it has
Code : [Forms]![FRMRequestForm]![RequestID]
(The above works outside the navigation form.)
I have also tried adding the navigation form name
Code : [Forms]![Main]![FRMRequestForm]![RequestID]
But none work.

I have a form that has 2 subforms. When I try to print the current file there are a few problems,
1) When you use the print option in File menu, and select "Selected Records" , it will always print the second record, no the one selected.
2) No matter how often I change the printer properties , it will not keep the paper size I request.
Is there a script I could use to set the size and print the current record ?

Currently, I have a database situation in which I am working in one database with data. If this data does not belong in this database I need to be able to take specific fields from the record and insert it into either a new table in a different database I have, or have it copied to a blank form that would accept it.

I have a form which contains a subform. On this subform, the user will enter several lines of container ID numbers. If one of these containers has errors, they check a yes/no box and a pop up form opens for them to enter the details of the errors.
I want two fields that are populated on the subform to transfer information to the corresponding two fields on the pop up form. This works when only one container ID has been added to the subform. However, when there are multiple containers in the subform and the container with the errors happens to be the second or third record on the subform, the pop up form always transfers the information from the first record to those fields.
I also have the subform requerying when the check box is checked so that the information saves to the table and the focus does stay on the correct record but the pop up form still opens with the wrong information.
how to transfer the information from the record that the user is currently on?

I have created a navigation form with quick access to the forms and reports I use most often. The Navigation Form (which I named Control Panel) automatically lands on the Tutor_Information Form on a current record. However, I would like for it to open to a blank form instead while retaining the ability to access the current records. Individually, when opening the Tutor_Information Form from the Navigation Panel, it opens to a blank record.
I used a 2 step macro
1. OpenForm
2. GoToRecord - New.
How can I make it do the same thing when landing on the Navigation Form (Control Panel)? I am using Access 2013.

Lets say,
Form A has fields: ID, LN and FN
ID LN FN
1 A F
2 B G
3 C H
4 D I
5 E J
Form B has fields: ID, LN and TR
ID LN TR
1 A Y
2 B N
3 C Y
4 D Y
5 E N
I would like to be able to switch between these two forms and the form automatically set focus to the record that I was on the form prior. Meaning if I am on record 3 on Form A and navigate to Form B, I would like to automatically set focus to record 3. Is this possible?
A possible issue after this gets sorted out is what happens if with the same scenario above record 3 does not exits? is it possible in that instance to simply requery the form?

I have a Main form that has button that loads a new Pop Up form for entering new data that will display in the Main form. When all the data is entered I click on a button that Saves the data and exits the form and then runs Re-query on the main form returning to the record that was current before the requery.
I have the following code:
Private Sub cmdSaveTradeAndExit_Click()
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSaveRecord 'Save the current record
DoCmd.Close 'Close the current form
Dim CrId As Integer
CrId = Forms!frmTransactionMainActivePopUp.CurrentRecord
Forms!frmTransactionMainActivePopUp.Requery
DoCmd.GoToRecord , Forms!frmTransactionMainActivePopUp, acGoTo, CrId
End Sub
But I am getting the following error:
Run-time error '2498':
An expression you entered is the wrong data type for one of the arguments
And the following is in yellow in the debug:
Code:
DoCmd.GoToRecord , Forms!frmTransactionMainActivePopUp, acGoTo, CrId

I currently have a form that only shows data based on a specific record id. I have placed a list into that form though that has multiple record ID's listed ( It's a log). How do I get a List to Filter to just the Record ID that corresponds to the current form Record.
What I have are as follows:
A form that has client information : Address, phone numbers, Etc.
On that form I have Pages. one of the pages contains a List.
That List however contains information from multiple clients based on Point of Contact ( Call Log)
What I want is a way to narrow the List to only show those that corresponds to the Current Client Record.
Is this possible? If my approach is wrong, which is a better way?

I have a DB in Access 2007 which I'm having trouble with. I have a form, "Sub_Det_Frm", on which I would like to place a button to print the current record, (Primary Key is an autonumber "Employee Number") to a report "Sub_DetForm_Rpt".
I've used the instructions from, oops I can't show you the link! It's h(double t)p(colon)//allenbrowne(dot)com/casu-15(dot)html but I'm getting this error:
The expression On Click you entered as the property setting produced the following error: A problem occurred while Employee Details was communicating with the OLE server or ActiveX Control.
This error occurs when an event has failed to run because Microsoft Office Access cannot evaluate the location of the logic for the event. For example, if the OnOpen property of a form is set to =[Field], this error occurs because Access expects a macro or event name to run when the event is fired.

I have a small issue, but cannot solve it. I have a form with a textbox bound to a time(7) on a SQL server linked table.
Even if I put the format as "Short time 24h" or "hh:mm" it will always come out with seconds, nanoseconds, etc as soon as you change record. I would like to avoid using the "current" event to keep the "hh:mm" at any record change.

Combo box on continuous form should have the control source listed as the field on the form that will be updated. The Row Source, however, is a query that includes 2 things: the field on the form that will be updated (this part will be nonvisible in your form) and the table/query of selections you want to show up in the combo box (visible). Then ensure the Bound column is set to 1 and the Column count is set to 2 with Column Widths as 0";1"
