Forms :: Set The Size And Print Current Record With Subforms
May 30, 2014
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 ?

I have a main form "frmDriverNoticeRecord" with 2 subforms, "frmSubDriverNotice" and "frmSubVehicleRecord"..The main form uses "IncidentID" as the PK. Each form stores data in its own table. The tables are related via IncidentID and there is a 1-many relationship between tblIncident (main) and tblDN (sub) and tblVehicle (sub).
I have a form "frmIncidentLog" displaying records in a table view with a few fields for quick reference and to allow selection of a single record for detailed viewing. I created a command button with the intent to open the "frmDriverNoticeRecord" at the current record. The main form and child link fields appear to be linked correctly; i.e. IncidentID on all three. If I open the form manually it opens and I can use it and search and filter as I want. If I try to open it via the command button It opens a small window asking for the IncidenID, when I enter theIncidentID number, it opens the form to the first record every time.Here is the code:
Private Sub comOpenDR_Click()
Dim frmName As String
Dim recID As String
frmName = "frmDriverNoticeRecord"
recID = "[IncidentID]=" & Me![IncidentID]
DoCmd.OpenForm frmName, , , recID
End Sub
I tried running the the DoCmd.OpenForm command directly from the button using the where condition (in various manners) with the same results.

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'm having hard trouble doing print preview current record from form with subform to a report.
When using the code below I'm getting an error for:
The specified field [PolicyNum] could refer to more than 1 table listed in the from clause of your sql statement.
Dim strDocName As String
Dim strLinkCriteria As String
strDocName = "rptCurrentInfo"
strLinkCriteria = "[PolicyNum] = Forms![frmAdjusterMod]![PolicyNum]"
DoCmd.OpenReport strDocName, acViewPreview, , strLinkCriteria
Command button is in the main form frmadjustermod - sbfm is sbfmMoreMod
foreign key is PolicyNum
Thanks,
Michael

Private Sub Command30_Click()
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSaveRecord
Dim strDocName As String
Dim strWhere As String
strDocName = "Civil Process"
strWhere = "[FormID]=" & Me!FormID
DoCmd.OpenReport strDocName, acPreview, , strWhere
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdPrint
End Sub
I can get this code to print only one record but then the button will always print this record. It will not change and print the current record.
FormID is an autonumber to give each record it own id.

Is there a way to print the current record from a dao.recordset?
This is an exercise to compare data content.
I have a table with 30 fields and thousands of rows (rs1).
I'm comparing it with a copy of the same table (rs2) that has the same number of fields and the same rows and almost the same content.
I can loop through the recordsets and get the cursor to stop on a field whose values don't match, lets say on row #x
and the programmed message will say something like:
"ROW: 699 Field: [RequestStatus] rs1.VALUE: Closed, DOES NOT MATCH rs2.Value: VOID, in the comparison recordset"Then I'd like to print the entire Row, Row #699.
I thought I could use rs1.getrows but I'm not sure how to make that work.

I need to Print a single record from a form but using a report layout.
I have created the form and created a report. A button on the Form kciks off the print but I get all records rather than just the one shown on the Form. Whats a really simple way of just selecting the Current record.
Where do I put an instruction saying print only this record:confused:

hi
i have 3 queries brought together in 1 form. i do not want a report to be printed out just the current record in form view. this is because i have a number of images per record.
if i print out the current record and it only has 1 photo in a sub-form attached to the main form record, then the main form will print on 1 page which is what i want [screenshot 1]. But if there are 2 or more photos attached to the main record then the print command button prints out 2 pages for 2 photos, 3 pages for 3 photos and so on [screenshot 2].
any ideas as to how to limit the print command button to print out only 1 page per record regardless of how many photos their are attached to each record??
thanks

I want to put a print button on my data entry form that prints the current record in a report that is laid out all nice and pretty. I found this code that works, but it goes straight to the printer - it does not bring up the printer dialog so you can select a printer.
Code:
Private Sub RecordPrint_Click()
Dim strWhere As String
If Me.Dirty Then
Me.Dirty = False
End If
[Code] ....
How do I get it to bring up the printer dialog?

I have a button on a FORM to print the current record with the following code:
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSelectRecord
DoCmd.PrintOut acSelection
But what I need is that before printing, open the preview to set the margins and page size ... or at least to pre-configure so that when you press the button, and comes preformatted.

I have VBA code for a Print Preview button on the main form that previews the current record in a separate Report using this code:
Code:
Private Sub cmdPrintRecord_Click()
Dim strWhere As String
If Me.Dirty Then 'Save any edits.
Me.Dirty = False
End If
[code]....
I use this Print Preview code on a Button in the Form Header. The Main form lists head of household information. I also have a tabbed control with three tabs that have SubForms for Address, Children and Contact details. The problem I have is that if any of the subforms are left blank I get a Run-Time Error '3021': No Current Record. If I Debug (press the button), it takes me straight to this line:
Code:
varAge = DateDiff("yyyy", varBirthDate, Now)
highlighted in Yellow.Anyone on my database must have an address, should have contact details and could have children. If any one of these is blank then the print preview will not work.I would like to know how to stop this error happening for blank records in my subforms.

I have been an MS Excel man all along my career and I am a novice in MS Access.I have created a table, [Initial Customer Approval] which records data from a Form, [Initial Customer Approval]. Once the data is entered in the Form, I need to do some calculations based on the data entered in some of the fields in the form.I created 6 different queries for the six possible values in those fields. now for each of those queries I created respective reports.I placed a Print command button in the Form.
1. When I press the Print button it should open the report for the current record in the Form. (Currently It Opens all the reports simulatneously, with only one relevant report containing the current record; other opened reports being blank.)
2. If user presses the Print button before pressing Save button then system should prompt user.
Here is the code (Please note [reference number] is the unique ID generated for each record entered in the tabe through form):
Private bSaveClicked As Boolean
Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
If Not bSaveClicked Then
MsgBox "You are trying to navigate away from the active record. Please either save your changes, or press ESC to cancel your changes.", vbOKOnly + vbInformation
Cancel = True
[code]...

Please refer to the screen snapshots.
I've got two subforms on an input form, and space is critical. In design view the forms are very close together (how I want them), as depicted in one snapshot. But then when I go to form view, each subform has a big gap below it, which spreads the two subforms apart on the form as shown in the other snapshot.
Why does this happen with subforms? I've poured through the formatting properties and can't figure out what causes this. Am I missing something?

I have a form with some tabbed subforms. Master/Child links are set, everything is bound. When I open the form to display records (based on search criteria on the switchboard form), let's say it returns 6 records for someone, they are sorted by date and so the newest would display first.
But when it opens, the main form shows all the appropriate data, but the subforms don't show at all. Just a blank box where the subform control should be. If I click next record (and any thereafter) they all display correctly immediately. Now if I go to the 2nd record, then back to my 1st record, it displays correctly.
I'm guessing it must have something to do with the onLoad event of either the main form or subforms, but I don't have anything in there for OnLoad....no code at all.

I have a main form with multiple subforms in tab view, right now the forms only open in edit mode, I would like all forms to open to new record mode. I know I can set the main form with the switchboard manager but what about the subforms?

I have always noticed that when creating a report, when you make a paragraph using a label, the alignment and size of the text/paragraph is always different when you preview the report than when you design it.
This makes alignment of paragraphs tricky, especially when you are trying to insert a bold faced word into the middle of a block of text by using a separate label.

I have a landscape oriented report which is A4 size. When I select Landscape in print preview the result is cut off on the right. In the form's design mode I get a little green triangle on the top-left which tells me that the form is wider than the page size. Is this because I am using a default printer with a portrait setting?
I want to avoid having to change the default printer for each different form orientation. I am printing to a pdf printer (pdfCreator which doesn't appear to have a landscape output setting) while testing my design so as not to waste ink & paper.
I am using Windows XP SP3 with Access 2007.

I have a continuous subform recording the information of various wireless products for an employee embedded in an employee main form. Please see screen shot enclosed.
There is a check box "BYOD/Personal" on the subform. I want to hide a number fields when this check box on independent record is checked. However, if I use the following codes, the changes apply to all records under that employee.
Private Sub BYOD/Personal_AfterUpdate()
If BYOD/Personal.Value = True then
Me.Provider.Enabled = False
Me.XXX.Enabled = False....etc.
Else
Me.Provider.Enabled = True
Me.XXX.Enabled = True....etc.
End If
End Sub
How can I just disable those fields on the subform of a specific record when the BYOD/Personal field for that record is checked?

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 have a control on a form where a user inputs a number then presses enter. The AfterUpdate event prints a report. The problem is that it prints the previous record each time its updated. I want to print the current record. Maybe some type of requery before the event happens. Any ideas?

I need to find a way to print the currently selected record (by clicking a button in the form) as a form. I know printing is almost always done in records, but they use the forms by hand before entering them into the computer database.
One tough part of this is that this printing function needs to be sustainable through revisions of the form, as we will be constantly updating it.
Is there a way to print the form with only the current record shown without creating a second form or report?
