I have created a form using Create|Form.
I have now opened it in Design view and wish to adjust the width of the controls - text boxes etc but when I try to adjust one, all of the text boxes in that column are adjusted.
How do I individually adjust the widths?
Is it possible to make it so that whatever the dimensions of the image i paste the OLE object's frame will also be the same? I'm having a problem, not necessarily a problem more like a preference, I'm inserting pictures of each individual inside a database and whomever last took these pictures didn't make sure there was a standard size So all the images are different sizes and when they're put inside the OLE frame you can see the image inside it but the frame itself also shows its white background because the image isn't the full dimensions of the frame. I was thinking if it's possible to make the frame automatically adjust to the image's width & height.

Manually it can be done by selecting the Query - Click on More dropdown of the Reports section in the ribbon - Click on Column width - and select best fit as the option.I want this to happen by a vba code and not manually doing it everytime because the field length changes as it is a dynamically created Query.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have set up a report in Access. However, when I look at it in print preview, I get the message that the section width is greater than the page width, and that some pages will be blank. It is obvious that the Detail Section is the issue, but I can't figure out how to reduce the section width. The detail section only contains a few text boxes that are well within the margins of the other sections.
How do I adjust the section width so there won't be any blank pages?
I have a subform with the following fields:
Client name, Country, Country ID
I want to add to every row a combobox with a list of towns depending on the value in the field Country ID.how do I filter the comboboxes individually based on a value in another field on the same row?
I have created a list that has 5 column. Data is filled in list using a query. I know how to remove 2 columns, but I do not know how to increase the width of columns.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIn an .ACCDE I want to store the column widths when user closes a datasheet form (or subform) so that when opening it anew, the widths are as previously set by user. I could store this data in a dedicated table ( and userID, for the multiuser db), but is there a smarter way? Some array/ dictionary/ whatever as database or form property?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI can see how to iterate over all the controls to find the Tag collection, then do something with it.
Problem is that since I know the name of the tag, I just want to do something with it (height, visibility, etc). But I can't figure out how to reference a tag directly without iterating over all the controls.
Something like me.tag("tagname").height=0
I've set the column widths properly on the subform, but the down arrow on the list box is still outside of the selection area. It may have something to do with lookups or concatenations, but I'm not finding that so in what I can think of to trace down.
I exaggerated the width of the list box to show where the down arrow actually shows itself.
See the form "frm_Class_Skills_Update" in the attached database. I need it to be visible when the list box is about 1.25" more narrow.
Hello all!, I am new to the form
I have one problem I can't seem to get to the bottom of. I have a database that counts the attendance of my basketball team. Everything works great but I have one problem. Our basketball program is 12 weeks for each student. Now students can join any time but all of them are required to stay 12 weeks to complete the training. How do I get Access to tell me how many weeks a student has left in the program? As i was saying it is easy for me to add together the days of the week that the student attended, but I can't seem to figure out how to get the amount of weeks a student been attending. One more thing, I know this is asking alot but is there a way to have an extra column that allow me to add additional weeks to certain individuals (for the students that like to skip a week or to)?
Any help would be appreciated
Hi:
In MS Access:
Can MS Access send multiple files?
eg.
file 1 => send to a@hotmail.com
file 2 => send to b@hotmail.com
file 3 => send to c@hotmail.com
file 4 => send to d@hotmail.com
file 5 => send to e@hotmail.com
send them at the same time, but different address. Can they do that?
I think that it cannot be done this way, right.
I think that it only send a file at a time, right.
Please let me know. Thanks.
Thanks.
I have a template report (R_CurrentJobs) with fields from database.
Fields: FirstName, LastName, Email, JoB Number, TechID, TechName, JobLocation etc...
The query Q_CurrentJobs is a list of jobs to send to the tech for today. (These are open jobs queried).
I need to run this query on the report (R_CurrentJObs) and send the report to each tech based on their individual jobs. The jobs are connected to each tech by its TechID.
The report list the job information for each tech (JOb number, Location details etc.)
When I click the button to send the email. I want to email each tech individually based on the Q_CurrentJobs query using R_CurrentJobs. (DoCmd.SendObject)
I need to send the report using DoCmd.SendObject. However, I need to send it based on each tech's job via email.
Currently all tech and jobs on the reports together. I need it to pull the email address and only send to that tech its jobs.
Currently I'm using the basic vba code
DoCmd.SendObject acSendReport, "R_DispatchInspectors", acFormatPDF, "email@me.com", , , "Job number", "Please see attached", False
However do I allows this to send individual report connected to email address. (Which will have each tech's specific jobs sent to them only).
table name: Inspectors (this one have their email address)
Table name: JObs
Report name: R_DispatchInspectors
I know in access 2003 i can use:
printer.leftmargin = 0
but in access 2000 there is no printer object. Is there a way of setting the margin with vba from access 2000?
First off, I'm really new to all this so I'm a little overwhelmed. I know what I want but may not describe it well.
I'm just trying to get a basic issue to work.
If I have 2 databases, one which has names, and another which has information - in memo form. What I'm trying to do is create a form which will allow me to bring up a persons name and have the subform query the information database for all information (events) which have this persons name listed inside.
I have tried both filters and queries and while I can get everything to work if I type in text in the queries in and/or filters if I try to use the value of the name in the main form nothing ever works...
Thanks...
Below is code to adjust file attributes.
Code:

I am trying to make the + - (numpad) adjust the date of the current text field. The problem I am having is I believe the input mask intercepts the keypress and my keypress event is never fired. Here is my code:
Code:
Private Sub LeaseDate_KeyDown(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer)If (KeyAscii = 107) Then
LeaseDate = DateAdd("d", 1, LeaseDate)
End If
If (KeyAscii = 109) Then
LeaseDate = DateAdd("d", -1, LeaseDate)
End If
End Sub
Access makes the ding noise when I try and press + and - ...
I'm going crazy!! Someone who didn't really understand relational database theory (not like I'm an expert, but. . .) built a DB that is much more complicated than it needs to be. That person left and I got the job. I have to work with our IT people to hopefully redesign it completely (I would without asking, but they control the SQL server and the connection to the web.) but in the meantime, I have to work with a mess.
Okay, the question--I have to print a report of which organizations used which software company.
The table fields are:
Organization
Comp1
Comp2
Comp3
Comp4
etc.
the answers are a "1" for a yes and a "0" for no in the "Comp" fields, so there is an answer in every field of a record. Essentially, it's a spreadsheet.
Off the top of my head, I know I could query each Company name with the court individually and then union query them all together. But isn't there any easier way? We're talking about 15 queries if I do it that way!
Anyway, thanks for any help you can give--this is driving me crazy (over 40 table set up in similar disarray. . . .)
Hello,
I want to use a tab form where the user can click add, search, and edit records all from 3 tabs. The problem is I only want to be able to add data on one form, edit data on another, and just read only on the search. This seems to cause a dilemma, how can I specifiy them to add, edit, and read only on one form using tabs?

I am making a database that will be used by multiple people on a network, and they have different resoloutions on their own computers. when the database is loaded on their respective computers, the form controls are all off.
On the computer i designed them on, the forms fit perfectly on screen, as do the controls, i would like to know if there is some vba code i could incorporate into the form open event, or module code that i can use in order to dynamically re-seize the forms and all of the controls to suit different resoloutions?
I've created an Access Report of a letter to be printed and mailed to customers. The majority of the letter is text, however there is a subform in the middle that will have a wide range of records displayed in it. This causes the subform's height to adjust from 1/2" to several inches, depending on the number of records. I need the text below the subform to start just below the last record in the subform, no matter how many records are displayed in the subform.

How can I adjust my required field so that you cannot simply enter a space bar character to circumvent the requirement?
Here is part of the code:
If IsNull([txtRequiredReason]) Then
MsgBox "The Reason field is required"
DoCmd.GoToControl "txtRequiredReason"
Else
I have a database that I use to put in orders for our shop and keep track of our part informations as well as paint and packing materials. Everything works good on this but I am trying to create a table for adjusting quantities on hand for packing material based on the part quantities and for adjusting paint in stock based on information given to me after the job is run.
There is already a relationship between parts and packing material as well as parts and paint. When I put an order in I would like to have it adjust out that many packing materials that are related to that part. Once a job is run I need to be able to adjust out the amount of paint used.
For the paint side of this I want it to track the paint used by order, we are trying to get a grasp on how much paint we are using for parts so it is important for me to know how much and when.
I am thinking I need a table that connects paint to orders and has quantities in it, then create a query and do the calculations from there... I do not know how to accomplish that but it sounds like it could be right...
I would like to make some changes to the Northwind sample database.I need to have the Customers section completely removed as my company issues products to our own staff, not to external customers, so there is no Customers and shipping details needed.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a main form, 2 sub forms, and 2 text-boxes on the main form. I have a search box now for the first subform. Works perfectly. Once the users filtered based on name, I want them to be able to select that filtered record which would filter another subform.
Right? ok.
My first attempt was to assign the ID that was selected to a textbox on the main form, then automatically requery the second subform based on that value. I used this way on my search box. I'm sure there is a way to go directly from clicking the value to requerying the second subform, but i don't know it.
That being said even the indirect first attempt isn't working. It all has to do with the ".", "!", and ordering of this stuff. It has to do something with Parent child, but beyond that I'm at a loss.
Code:
Me.[Collateral] = Acct_Reference_id
Me.[Navigation]![textbox] = Acct_Reference_id
...
'Me!Subform1.Form!ControlName
'Me!Subform2.Form!ControlName
'Me.Parent!ControlName
I did find this very useful site [URL] ...... It shows what code you can use depending on where you are and what you're doing. Even with that as a resource, i'm still at a loss.
I have subform (Datasheet) is there some code e.g. after update, which can adjust size cell to lenght of data?
