I have an Access based CRM system that was built for me in 1998. Amazingly it is still pretty effective. However, I would like to make a small adjustment in the programming..
Once we've added the details for an order we press continue and the screen closes and one copy of the acknowledgement of order form. I simply want it to print three copies!
I believe this is the coding part of the command that is effected.
Rem Print Report
DoCmd.OpenReport "Order Acknowledgement"
Rem Close Form
DoCmd.Close acForm, "Booking Entry"
Our access database keep track of children attending an after-school music programme.
Each week we print registers and give them to the class teachers for them to mark who is coming. The registers are produced as a report, grouped by School then by Class.
We run 3 times a week so each week I need to print off 3 copies of the registers for each class.
Is there a way to print multiple copies of each group in a report? This would save me quite a bit of time each week.
This works just fine in creating the desired result - EXCEPT I don't get all the records.
When I remove the 'cartesian table', and right join everything, then I get the correct results. If I keep everything as-is and reintroduce the cartesian table, then I get an error about there being an ambiguous outer join.
I finished a db for a client to help her keep track of the classes she teaches, her students and other related info. The db has several tables and one main form with subforms. I read that it was a good rule of thumb to design the fewest posible forms to make the navigation centrilized and so I did. (I also spent some time on making it look less Access like, more of a stand alone app and wish to preserve it) Up to this point the client was using Outlook to store all the contact info plus anything else she could jam into various "notes" fields. Now she wishes to have some simillar futures in the db to the ones outlook offered, one of them: being able to open multiple contacts (records) in new windows. So basically she wants to open many instances of the main form so she can jump between the records without closing the previous one. My question is: what is the nicest (cleanest from the point of db design) way of giving her such functionality? I thought about giving her an option to open the new record (student) in a tab, but I'm not sure how to acomplish that. Another way would be to copy the main form several times and open those as she clicks on "open in new window", but I don't think it's a good solution, becsue: e.g. How many copies do I create? I'd have to go over all the vba in each copy and adjust it so it works properly with the copy, plus all the vba in each subform... :eek: Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated on how to tackle this. Also what are the consequences of having several instances of the same form open (editing same record by mistake, etc..)
In Access 2007 is it possible to alter a macro so I can print 2 copies of a report. I have created a simple macro which opens up a report based on a value in a data entry form. I want to automatically print 2 copies of the report. Is this possible....
I have a simple database at the moment which I would like to put onto two laptops. The laptops would be used for entering information when out on a job (no network or email connection).
What I would want to do is have a database on a desktop in the office so when the laptops come back into the office they can update the office database with the information on the laptop database.
I have a split db that has been in use for a few years by about 12 people. The front end is compiled into an accde file.
Ocasionally a user (randomly) might get an error message "Microsoft has detected that this database is in an inconsistent state...." when closing the db and when that happens, a copy of the front end is automatically placed on their desktop.
This front end is always deleted and the original front end continues to work just fine afterwards.
Why are my users getting this error message? Why is the front end automatically copied onto their desktops?
New to Access. We have a existing database in use that has a minor glitch. The main form we use to add records to has a subform. All of the data in the main form shows up when printed to a pdf file. The header section & detail section of the subform prints to the pdf file but the footer section remains blank in the pdf file.
My report produces multiple copies of the same record. I know why, but don't know how to fix it.
EmployeeTable.
With a one to many relationship with TrainingTable (via employee PK as FK in trainingtable).
Training table has a one to many relationship with a table called Range.
Report is based on a query that picks up the Employee/Training/Range (range just describes the training unit).
However, If I have more than one range expressed organized a training unit, the report spits out several copies of the Employee record to display all the ranges.
I've written an application in VB.Net and now I need to transfer the data on textboxes on a form to a report for printing. Only the data on the form is what I want to preview and print.
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 am trying to add to a db I inherited. One of the end reports that is produced is a cost breakdown for each end user.As things stand, the data collates into individual reports which are then grouped into one file and saved via PDF. What I am trying to work out is whether or not I can selectively pick some of those reports to have more than one copy.
I see a form (within an existing form) that will list all of the end users for a particular scheme and, next to that, be a dropdown that will allow the db user to select how many copies of each report needs to be published. These will then collate merrily into one document to be saved to PDF.
I am trying to print one record displayed in a form. I also need to print one record in another form at different times. I have one form working fine. It prints out the displayed record in my report just fine by clicking the Print_report button.
I copied the report and renamed it. in this form the print button is named Print_Requested. When I open this form and click the Print_Requested button, it prints out everything except for the data.
Edit: The reason I made a duplicate report is because it was doing the same thing when I tried to print the same report from different forms. One report is all I need, but I need to be able to print it from different forms.
Here is my code: -----------------------------
Private Sub Print_report_Click() On Error GoTo Err_Print_report_Click
While using a relational database in Access 2003, I am writing a letter to people, reminding them what resources they have been allocated. The short letter is in a form and a subform has been used to list the resources - between 1 and 5 lines.
If I isolate one person by filtering, I get x identical pages, where x = the number of resources that have been allocated to them. Therefore, some people get one page, others could get 5 identical pages.
Can anyone advise how I can just show and print one page per person, irrespective of the number of resources allocated to them? I can get the correct result in a report but need it in a form so that the users can edit and select the letters to be printed easily.
The main problem is related with the attachment printing. Each data entry has attachment (word file). It's ok when I'm about to print one attachment per entry, but often I need to print most of attachments at once, doing it separately looks overwhelming. Mainly - I want to have ability to print all attachments at once or select multiple attachments.
I have a report that prints per customer. Is there a way to do a print all such that all the cusomer reports are printed without having to manually print each one ??
I want to print mulitple reports with different content based on a query. It is like printing invoices of different customers based on a date selection at once / automated..Current I have it working so that I have to select 1 customer at the time.
My report has tens of pages and I need to save each page as separate file with ID as filename. PDF prints with ID but all in one file. I use this code.
Option Compare Database Private Sub tisk() Dim cesta As String Dim kod As String Dim Sql As String Dim rs As Recordset
How to do this? trick is that these reports are all the same report being fed different data, opened and closed using VBA. In between the closing and opening the data gets changed. Best approach is?
Hello Here's the problem: I'd like to print multiple reports using a button in a form. I guess I could use something like that: DoCmd.OpenReport "report1", acNormal DoCmd.OpenReport "report2", acNormal DoCmd.OpenReport "report3", acNormal DoCmd.OpenReport "report4", acNormal etc in the command.click sub but here's the tricky section: Some of my reports (they are all based in select queries) do not contain data. How can I make access print only these forms that include records ? For example if the query that provides records to the "report2" returns nothing, I would like on the commabd click event mentioned above, only the report1,3and 4 to be printed. Am I asking too much?Hope you guys understand what I'm talking about. Sorry , if my English isn't too good Thank you in advance
Iv got a form with various data on it. The data comes from a table.I wish to print the detils on my form onto a label (10cmx12cm) as it appears on my form. I understand the best way to do this is via a report. So, i have created my report from the same table that my form gets its data from. I have laid my report out (visually) in the style i wish to appear on my printed label. Then i have added a cmd button to my form, which carries out the 'print report' code. However, this code sends all the records in my table to the printer, where as i only want to print the current record. Any suggetsions? This is my current print code behind the cmd button on my form:
Private Sub PrintLabel_Click() On Error GoTo Err_PrintLabel_Click Dim stDocName As String stDocName = "PalletLabel" DoCmd.OpenReport stDocName, acNormal Exit_PrintLabel_Click: Exit Sub Err_PrintLabel_Click: MsgBox Err.Description Resume Exit_PrintLabel_Click End Sub
