After a user completes a form, they click a button at the end that uploads the information the back-end database and creates a PDF copy using the DoCmd.OutputTo function. It has been working fine, but one user just had an issue where the form was very zoomed in and cut off. So I have 2 questions:
1) What is the cause of this problem? Is it based on screen resolution?
2) Is there a way to fix the problem to make sure it does not happen?
I want to place a text box at the right bottom corner of a form. I tried but its position is changing as per moinitor sizes.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHello this is my first post in the definetely best Access & VBA forum on the net and i hope i am in the correct forum to ask this.
I would like to know if there is any way in access to change the size of the for my users view according to their screen's resolution.
E.g. i am creting the form using 1280 x 1024 resolution and my users have 1024 x 768 resolution how go i make the form adapt to their res.
Thanks for any replies :D
I hope I can explain this clearly.
I have a subform that has a lot of information and I was wondering
if there is a way to make the subform appear as if one turned up the
resolution, thus making it's contents smaller, allowing me to pack more info
in it. I would love to leave the size of the main form alone.
I'm using Access 2000.
The sub form is currently displayed as datasheet.
I created a form which fits to my screen resolution. When I open it through an another computer which has different screen resolution then my form is opening according to my 1st screen resolution.
I wanted to fit the form resolution to the desktop on which it it opening. Is it possible?
How to set the form the screen resolution on which the form is opening.
I have a form that has a ton of checkboxes.
1. Select Product (combobox) or All Products (CheckBox)
2. Product Type (3 different checkboxes)
3. Includes (10 checkboxes)
What I need is these checkboxes to filter the selected data from my Details table and export it to a new excel file that the user chooses where to save.

I just bought a new computer. It came with a GIGANTIC (for me) 19 inch monitor.
Here's the question. What resoution should I set the screen to?
I make databases for others.
If my forms are too big for their monitors they have to use the scroll bars all the time.
If my forms are too small it doesn't look professional.
Advise greatly appreciated.
Is there a way a form can resize themselves depending on the screen resolution different computers use??
View 3 Replies View RelatedI couldnt find a search facility to see if this had been covered before, so apologies if it has been answered before.
I have created an application in Access (2002) which from the users side of things will start in a form and give them no access to the back end.
Unfortunately, it is entirely possible that different users will have their screens set at different resolutions and so the application will be unusable on some and too small on others.
I was wondering if it was possible for access to automatically resize according to the users screen resolution.
I have searched the MS Knowledge Base and help files etc, but I think it is looking less likely that it is possible. Creating 5 or 6 different versions for different screen resolutions would be a none option.
Thanks for reading.

Is there a way to have the same printing options for a chart in access as in excel.

I have an Append Query that I developed and am wanting to use the SQL View statement in a piece of VBA code that I am writing. The problem is that it is not working.
Here is the SQL View when I am in Query Design View.
Code:INSERT INTO tblMasterAccountList ( AccountNum, AcctName, [Account Type], [Billing Spec] )SELECT TEMPAcct.Acct, TEMPAcct.Name, TEMPAcct.Type, TEMPAcct.BillingSpecFROM TEMPAcctWHERE (((TEMPAcct.Existing)=False));
Here is the code I have in VBA...
Code:Dim strSQL As StringstrSQL = "INSERT INTO tblMasterAccountList (AccountNum, AcctName, [Account Type], [Billing Spec]) "strSQL = strSQL & "SELECT TEMPAcct.Acct, TEMPAcct.Name, TEMPAcct.Type, TEMPAcct.BillingSpec "strSQL = strSQL & "FROM TEMPAcct "strSQL = strSQL & "WHERE (((TEMPAcct.Existing)=False));"DoCmd.RunSQL strSQL
The code runs fine in that no errors are generated, but it does not append the records. When I run the query outside of VBA, it does append the records. Is there something special that needs to be done with an action query for the SQL statement to work in VBA?
I am using an unbound object frame to display an .png image file which is set in vba.
The image is an excel chart saved as a .png
The problem I have however is that the image I save from Excel is great quality, and is pretty tack sharp, but when I display the same file in the unbound object frame in access, it is not nearly as sharp.
I am setting the picture property of the control as:
ubImageUserChart = "c: empmyChart.png"
It displays alright, but is just a bit fuzzy - still quite legible, but it is a complex graph with a lot going on - has regressions and formulas etc on the graph, and they need to be very clear.
BTW - the unbound frame is the same size as the Excel chart which gets saved as a .png file. If I tile the images (Access unbound frame and original file in picassa preview) side by side - they are identical - size, orientation etc.
It is not practical for me to try and do the chart natively in access as it is way to complex. I am using access vba to drive an excel session to do all the statistical yack work and chart rendering, then displaying a png image of the resulting chart in an unbound object frame in access.
I have the form (PROJECT DETAILS) that displays a specific record's information, one record at a time.I would like to click a button to export 5 specific fields (name, phone, address) of that form ("Project Details"), based on the PK "AssignNr", and then insert those fields in an already created Excel form that has those fields blank, but other fields filled in.
And then, as part of the same macro, I want to have the Print pop-up come up in the Excel form to select where/how that file will get printed.I've tried exporting from the Project Details form, but it exports all the records. And then I am not sure how / where to code the vlookup formula (if that's even necessary) to take the data from the exported file, into the existing Excel form that needs to be filled in.
Can this even be done in one macro, or do I need to create two - one to export data from Access to Excel. And then another in Excel to vlookup the details from the exported file, into the existing Excel file.
It would be nice if I didn't have to put in what the vlookup criteria is. (i.e. AssignNr (which is the PK)) - if it could just be taken from the PROJECT DETAILS form's current record selection.
Hello,
Does anyone knows how can I export the export/import specifications (which file/directory) and how can I import/export the specifications between different versions of Access. Thanks!
How would I alter the below code to add a data and timestamp to an export?
Code:
Private Sub cmdExcel_Click()
DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputQuery, "qryResults", "ExcelWorkbook(*.xlsx)", "C:users" & Environ$("username") & "DocumentsqryResults & datetime.xlsx", , , , acExportQualityPrint
msgbox ("Export completed. Please click reset to return to original results.")
End Sub
After the & the datetime is showing up as file name.
I am trying to export the data from a form to a textfile by using the following simple piece of code:
Private Sub Command188_Click()
DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputForm, "CC_MAIN_PROJ"
End Sub
it works, but gives me the data like this:
| SPEC | SIZE_1 | SIZE_2 | C1_s | C2_s | APS1 | APS2 | BPS1 |
what I really want is for the data to be without all the bars "|" and dashes etc. and even without headers. I just want a straight text output, maybe delineated by spaces or commas only.

I have a form that I'd like to allow users to export to .xlsx via a button on the form. However I'd like to make it so that once the button is pressed, they are prompted to select a folder location before the export takes place.
I thought I would find a lot more 'how to' on this specific issue, but haven't had much luck.
