I have a form that records data entered by a user who I then want to email the record via a report run from a query.
I created a command button on the form with DoCmd.SendObject acSendReport,"name_of_report", "format", "to","subject", False
The email program (Lotus Notes) opens a new email msg with the report attached as pdf. However, the data recorded does not appear.
A command button on a form that can:
1- Open the Report called : ConsentForm
2- Print it to PDF printer (report is currently defaulted to that printer driver)
3- Save to folder: C:SOSConsentForms
4- Save as: Consent_[Last]_[First] (these are field names on the form)
Result i.e.: C:SOSConsentFormsConsent_Doe_John
5- Then send the file by email (Outlook) to : abc@hotmail.com
After inputting data into a text box on a form i want to click on a command button which will open an email program and then put the text there so i can send it.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have created a form and housed in the form is a combo box that pulls info from managers I work with. I want to create a command button that I can click to send them an email. I have their information tabled and then have also converted that table into a form. I have their email address I just need to know how to properly code the command. I have no visual basic experience. I have had classes where I've coded in C++ and HTML but very limited.
Thanks
I'm trying to use a command button in a form to filter and open a report. I am able to get it to open the report, but I cannot get it to filter the report based on a combobox in the form. I've tried every combination of code I could think of and find. Here is what I currently have:
Code:
Private Sub FilterReport_Click()
DoCmd.OpenReport "Report", acViewReport, "First Name='" & Me.FName & "'"
End Sub
Code:
Option Compare Database
Private Sub Report_Open(Cancel As Integer)
Me.RecordSource = Me.FName
End Sub
"FilterReport" = Form Button
"Report" = Report
"First Name" = Report Field
"FName" = Form Combo Box
I searched the forums, I downloaded sample datbases EmailA2K, example, and PrintCurrentRecord_Update however I cannot get my command button to fill the TO: with my customer email address. I have gotten lost in the code so I went with a send object macro. Maybe it's my internet service. I use Compu Serv which is a by-product of AOL. Can that be the problem? Anyway I don't understand code, I wish I did. I select send object as my action in my macro. I leave the object type and object name blank as well as the output format. In the To: I put = [email address]. In the subject I put "From CG" and the Edit Message is set as "no". When I click on the button it opens up my email provider but nothing is in the To:. I first tried to fill in the Object name and type and format and it attached the records in the form, I DO NOt want to do that. All I want is to have the Email Address be filled in the To: by clicking a button. I'm about 8 hours on this and a little on edge. I would like to get a good nights rest and not think asbout this anymore. Any Macro help would be great.

View 5 Replies View RelatedBeginner using 2010. I wish to play MP3 files from a command button on a form. I would like to avoid third party / ActiveX controls if possible.
I am aware that use of "CurrentProject.Path" will be useful to locate the MP3 file within a directory within the Project Folder.
But have be baffled by the sparse previous postings about this subject (going back to 2004). Searching this forum yields zero results on the term "MP3".
This accdb/e will be used to present historical information to a small number of people and will be used with runtime without user input.
And all I need is Play / Pause / Stop. No other functions required.
Hello all:
Right now, I have a contact database with email addresses, and would like to know if anyone has any suggestions on how to implement a command button that when I click on it, it will do the action as clicking on a link that says
mailto:anyone@anyone.com
If I type the mailto: before the email address, and click on it, it will open the email message window, but I am looking for a way to have the user click on a button and then it opens the email message window.
My field for the email is fldEmail
any suggestions?

I have set up a work order database. On the Work Order Submission form I have
a command button that adds the record to the table. I also have a button to
email the Submission Report. When the user fills out the form and clicks the
Add button the record is added to the table. The user then has to scroll to
have the record reappear in the form and then click the Email command button.
This works fine but I want to make this a one click operation.
I have a filter on the report that will be emailed to limit the report to just the current
record. The filter is:
[ID] = Forms![WO Submission]![ID]
where ID is the Primary Key for that record. If the record has not yet been
added to the table and thus has no primary key, the report to be emailed
will contain no record info.
I'm thinking I may have to use a temporary table but I'm clueless about how
to make that work.
Any suggestions?
Like the title says I need a command button to print preview and email two reports. I tried using macros but the problem I have is that it'll send out two emails instead of one email with two attachments. The other problem is that it won't recognize current pages information so it'll show two blank reports. But If I go to next record and come back in form view, it reognizes the changes and the reports look fine. Any help would be appreciated.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a form which has a button to email the data out in a standard email message.
Private Sub Command60_Click()

Dim sMessageBody As String
[code]...
This works well enough, however, FIELDS 11 through to 16 contain the venue address. This is all we ll and good if every field of the venue address is populated. here are times when not all of the fields are populated, for instance, the address might only be 5 lines.I know I can do this using IIf statements on a report, but how can i achieve the same thing for the email.
What I want to be able to do is have a button next to every client entry which the user can click. Once the button is clicked, I want the "person name" box in the report to be formatted to have a yellow background.The purpose of doing this is so after a couple of days when we come back to the report, we can easily see by the yellow background which people we have to follow up with.
I don't think conditional formatting will work because I have so many different "person names" in the report that it would go above the 3 rule limit, only solution in VBA.The button I created is called "Format", and this is the VBA code I have tried:
Private Sub Format_Click ()
Me.Person_Name.BackColor = vbYellow
End Sub
What would the VBA command line look like to export a report to Excel using a command button ?
