General :: Results Of DLookup Not Showing In Report View But Are Visible In Print Preview

Jun 25, 2013

I have a report with quite a few subreports in it. There are a number of calculated fields on the form, most of which use Dlookup to retrieve at least one of the figures required for the calculation. The Dlookup runs fine and the report opens but the calculated fields are devoid of data in Report view. When I switch to Print Preview view the fields are now populated. Below are two variations of the DLookup syntax I have used to try and alleviate this issue.

=DLookUp("[8]","qry_MonthlyTotalsByYearFirstAid","[ActivityType] = 'First Aid Injury (FAC) Reported in Safeguard'")/[sub_AllHours].[Report].[8]

=DLookUp("[8]","qry_MonthlyTotalsByYearFirstAid","[ActivityType] = 'First Aid Injury (FAC) Reported in Safeguard'")/[Reports]![rpt_AllFigures]![sub_AllHours]![8]

Note that the field [8] specified here is simply a month number and forms a column in the crosstab query for the corresponding query name.

I would add the query referred to in the DLookup to the source query for the report but the source report's data is derived from a Crosstab query, which only accepts one data field (Access terms this as the value field.

General :: Conditional Formatting Dates

Oct 29, 2013

I am trying to get my expiration date field to highlight a certain color once the date comes closer.I have weapons qualification dates. The user will input the date he/she qualified and then a expiration date (6 months from that day) automatically pops up.

Now what I want to do is once the expiration dates gets closer is change the color. So when it is 90 days from expiration it would highlight yellow, and when its 30 days away it would highlight red. I believe this can all be done through conditional formatting, but for the life of me I cant figure it out!!

General :: Conditional Formatting One Date Less Than Other

Aug 10, 2015

In column D I have a date (different on each row) and in Column E I have another date (again different dates on different rows)

I need Column D conditional formatted to that

If the date in column D is less than Column E then it turns red.

I tried doing one row and it was giving erroneous formatting

Need a lot of rows done.

General :: Conditional Formatting Percentage Result

Sep 26, 2012

I have a subform based on a query. In that query, I have calculated values for price+tax and another price+discount+tax. Now I have a conditional formatting that if the gross total is not equal to amount due, the amount due box will turn red. However even if they are equal visually, it still turns red. Ex. The gross total is 336.00 and the amount due is 336.00 also, so it should NOT turn red, but it does. When I click on the amount due control, the value turns into 335.999999195337. How do I tell access not to make 336.00 into 335.999999195337.

General :: Conditional Formatting Of Report Fields

Dec 11, 2012

I am struggling to format a field on a report.

I believe it is because special charachters are in the text string

I want to highlight the field if it contains the following text

Stage 6: Won and Deploy (shipping)

Regretably, I believe Access see this as code.

I suspect I need to encapsulate it some way, but nothing seems to be working

What am I missing?? How can I force Access to see it as a text string??

General :: Conditional Formatting - Change Backcolor Of Process If Status Field Contains Certain Text

Jan 8, 2014

I have a subform with two fields [status] and [process], i am trying to get the backcolor of procces to change to red if the status field contains the text "expired".

I have tried vba. plced on the after update

if me.status = "expired" then
me.process.backcolor = vbred
else me.process backcolor = vbwhite
end if
this

Changes the color of the field [process] but also all process field colors to red even if the status field does not contain "expired".

I think conditional formatting is the way to go but i think i need an expression to complete this.

Conditional Formatting

Hi Guys,

I've a question and I hope you can help me out.......
I'm trying to use Conditional Formatting Options on a Text box called "Date". I'd like that this box become Red if its value is between value1 from Text box "Start Date" and value2 from Text box "End Date" or Green otherwise (in this way the color change dynamically every time I change the values of Text Boxes "Start Date " and "End Date"). How can I do that? What I need to type in the Conditional Formatting Windows?

Thanks a lot for you help!!!!

Conditional Formatting

Aug 13, 2007

Hello

On my Database I have used Conditional Formattion to change the colour of the qty to highlight when the qty is getting low however its not as good as I would hope as there are different type of definition of quantity (D of Q) e.g. Each (single items such as a screw) and Roll (such as cord and tape)

Conditional formatting doesnt work well because if I have it as less than 10 the qty is in red, its ok for the each items however not the roll as 10 rolls of tape is more than we would need.

I am just wondering if anyone knows what the code would be to change the colour depending on the qty and the D of Q

All i have got so far is:
If me.qty <10 and DofQ = EA then

Now im stuck for the change colour part

Any help would be great

Conditional Formatting

Sep 8, 2005

Does anyone know if there is a way in a report to display an entire row in a different color? I'm running a report based on a query and I need specific information to come up in RED. I read about conditional formatting but you can only apply it to a field in a report, but not to an entire row. Let's say I have a group of managers and I need to know the ones that are making more than $50,000 a year. I don't just want the salary to come in RED, I need the entire row (like name, last name, title, date of hire, salary, etc).
Any ideas?

thanks!

Conditional Formatting?

Mar 22, 2005

Good afternoon everyone
I am new to this forum. I have not done access development for about 6 years so I appologise for my rustiness.
I have created a form based on a query. The form is of type Datasheet. I have assigned Conditional formatting to the grid fields based on an expression evaluating a check box. This works fine and when I open the form the conditional formatting works great.

However, I am now trying to add this form as a subform in A.N Other form. The parent form has no datasource and is purely there to display some text values linked to unbound controls. I did this because apparently you cannot show form header for a datasheet view.
When I insert my child form into the parent there is no logical link. The behaviour of the form and subform works fine but the conditional formatting does not appear in the subform grid.
Why is this and how can I best sort this?
Any help would be appreciated, but please be aware I am not fluent in VB as I have been away for quite some time.

Bets regards
Philm

Conditional Formatting

May 15, 2006

Hi. I have a problem with my conditional formatting. I have two fields field 1 (hours worked) and field 2 (hours per task). Field 1 shows the hours worked based on the difference between a start and finish time and field 2 shows the hours per tasked based on values assigned to the 10 task fields. I set the formatting of field 1 to show up in red if it did not match the value of field 2, which works fine most of the time. However, for certain values i.e. 5 or 6 field 1 still shows up in red even though field 2 has the same value i.e. both equal 6.

Could someone explain to me why this happens and offer a solution if possible.

Thanks for any help.

I need the input forms to enable ONLY the number of rows displayed on the text box and disable the rest. I dont have a clue on how to do it. Tried conditional formatting. But the conditions overlap.

How can I use conditional formatting to have a field change background colors if it is populated or stays white if left blank. Do I use field value, field has focus or expression.
