How do I go about printing specific records displayed in a form? I basically just want to add a print button on my form to do this
I have a main form with a button that displays/opens a form
I then want to print the records displayed in the opened form
(See attached pictures)
i've created a database for city permits to be issued (which works perfectly thanx to alll your help), but now i need to be able to print out 1 permit at a time when it is issued (immediately after the data has been entered into the forms). i have 3 tables & 3 forms: contractors/owners, permtOrders (which has tabs for the different types of permits), and permitOrderDetails. the problem is the forms are set up for data entry (and only open in add mode for obvious reasons)...i need to be able to print an actual permit (like the carbon copy, landscape kind that usually tears out of a book). once the user enters the information into the forms, i need a little bit of that info from each form to be carried onto the actual printable permit. i'm not really sure how to accomplish this. :confused: i don't really know if i explained this right, but any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

View 2 Replies View RelatedHi there,
I have a form which displays data from a combo box in the header of my form.
Each row of the detail from the form contains two values from the database.. one is called case ref and the other is a checkbox for completed.
Here is what I want to do....
1) chose which rows I want to update by selecting the checkbox (I can do this)
2) I have put another text box in the header with a button.. this box captures the case ref (I have done this bit too)
3) When the button is clicked, I want to loop through all the records displayed on the form and update those with the checkbox ticked to the value of the text box header.... now I can update one row, but how do I update all of them????
Help would be much appreciated

Is it possible to disable the printing function in a form ?
We are getting people clicking the print icon when viewing a single form record. This results in the printer printing all records !!
Where in Access 2010 I can modify the displayed fields of a Combo Box on a form. I need to format the display window and add criteria to one of the fields. Can't remember where I set this up and recently upgrading from Access 2007 isn't working.

The on click command of the button sends the PDF of the report. (I read that this is what should be sent; but still get the same results.)
I don't understand how and where to attach VBA code:

I am looking for a way to store thumbnail images for specific records. I want an idiot proof way of selecting a jpeg image and then storing a 200x120px bmp version of the file in the database. Is this achievable with VBA code?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have been trying to figure out a best way to attach files to specific records. Up until this point have been using Hyperlink to link files that have been stored in shared folders. This seemed to be a very good option for quiet sometime; but some users wish to play god ! Since I have to give them RWX permission on the folder; they go into the Shared folder and either rename the file or move it around or worse, DELETE the file permanently. Thus messing up the hyperlink.
Now I am planning to use the wretched Attachment data type in Access. I know it will bloat the DB, but this seems to be a safer option. As I can control DELETES/EDITS. So I was thinking to use a stand alone DB, just used for Attachment tables. As these records will not be accessed everytime.
My problem is, I remember vaguely using two linked backend DB files, put a lot of strain on the front end. Thus making the connection very slow. Sometime even upto 10 seconds to simply load the login form.
My idea is to establish a persistent connection to the two DB files on front end opening. Thus the connection is always there so it might not be that slow !
Or is there something I could look into to manage the Files/Attachments more efficiently, other than Hypelinking?
I have a table in my database whose forms are refusing to open to specific records. They only open to a blank record--either by using other forms to open to specific records or simply by opening the form straight from sidebar. Even the Navigation bar doesn't allow me to move from one record to another; it only shows "1 of 1".
The "initial" form, which creates new records in the table, works perfectly--in creating a new record. I can create a new record, use the Navigation bar to move to a new record, create it, and move back to the first. But then when I close and re-open the form the above issue once again comes up.All my other tables--and the forms that are associated with them--work perfectly and I can open them to specific records without a hitch.
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.

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"
I've been trying to get my head round this one , but i'm just to thick to get it.
I have a continuous form that lists all items at a certain location.
The user selects a record by clicking on the record selector and then clicks on a command button with this code:
stDocName = "DivingInspectionCert"
stLinkCriteria = ("EquipmentID = " & Me!EquipmentID)
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria
The user then enters inspection details in to the "DivingInspectionCert" form which i want to store in a table (DivingCert) which will relate to the item. On completion of this form the user then clicks on a command button with this code:
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSaveRecord
If Me.RecordsetClone.RecordCount = 0 Then
MsgBox "There are no items to Print", vbInformation, "EquiTrac"
End
Else
DoCmd.OpenReport "DivingInspectionRpt", , , ("EquipmentID = " & Me!EquipmentID)
DoCmd.Close
When i click on this button, the report doesn't print and i get a message "No current record".
The inspection details are not stored in the table.
I did have the forms RecordSource based on the table "DivingCert" but that didn't work and i have just tried a query but it is still not working.
Would be much appreciated if you can help me.
Thank you
Does anyone know if there is a way to setup a button on a form that when pressed, will print to a specific printer (that's not the default)? For example, I have one button on my form that prints 2 copies to the default printer, then I want the other button on the form to print on another department's printer.
Thanks!
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.
View 1 Replies View RelatedDear All:
I have created a from containing names and address. On This form I have a checkbox called "MailLetter" and a command button called "Sendletter".
I place a check in the box corresponding to specific people, then using a command button a letter is printed to ONLY THOSE WHO ARE CHECKED.
The letter is a Word document that resides on the desktop.
Here is the code behind a command button to print. Not sure if it is correct:
Private Sub Command2600_Click()
Dim WordObj
Set WordObj = CreateObject("Word.Application")
WordObj.Visible = True
WordObj.documents.Open "C:Documents and SettingsUserDesktopLetter.doc"
End Sub
I assume this can be done through some sort of mail merge?
Thanking in advance.

Dion
How would I go about printing multiple pages of a certain page in a report. My goal is to get them to collate together. Please see example below:
I have 7 operation codes (A-G), but I need multiple copies of each within a set:
Below is how I would like to print it out:
A, A, B, C, D, D, A, E F, G
Also, not sure if it matters, but the report has a subreport to print the appropriate rework code on the back of every sheet (2 sided printing)
This will be the same every time, and I have made a tbl in the db with the order I require.
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've created a log in system with a tutorial I've found on YouTube. It simply redirects users to a specific form after a successful log in. Here is the code:
Code:
Public Sub Login()
On Error GoTo ErrorHandler:
If IsNull([cboUser]) = True Then 'Hier wordt gechecked voor de UserName
[Code].....
The users are defined in tabel "tblUsers". All users are now redirected to the form "frmMenu" which is good.
However, I would like to know how to add an exception. For example
1) All users should be redirected to frmMenu after a successful log in. (Check)
2) The user called "Management" should be redirected to an other form "frmMgm"
I've searched on the internet on how to do this but without luck. (forums.asp.net/t/1775325.aspx/1)
So in short:
IF user "Management" logs in THEN redirect to frmMgm (or whatever form)
I have a table called "tblEmployees" with columns "EmpName, EmpPassword, strAccess" in my table
The login form works but I wanted the user to go to a specific form that would be designated under strAccess
I have this code but it totally wrong to what I want it to do but not sure where to start
'Close logon form and open relevent page
Dim stDocName As String
stDocName = Forms!CopyfrmLogon!cboEmployee.Column(3)
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName
[Code] ....
"stDocName = Forms!CopyfrmLogon!cboEmployee.Column(3)" - this is the line that needs to be debugged ... I need something that says open form specified in the the column "strAccess" of the "tblEmployee" tables
I have a continuous form based on a query with the criteria as all records where a certain field is null. From this form, the user can fill in values for the null field. I then want to click a button on the first form to open another continuous form showing the same records so the user can go on to do something else. The problem I have though, is that if I base the second form on the same query as the first form, any records where the user has filled in a value for the previously empty field will now not be included in the query results. Is there a simple way of doing this?
View 2 Replies View RelatedHello again my forum o' saviours, Current filter: WHERE (Assignments.[AcademicYear]) Like ([Please Enter Academic Year])AcademicYear is a field in the Assignments table (duh). In this same query, I have a couple fields (equations and if/thens built on the assignments table) that will need to be used as further filters. I thought something like WHERE ((Assignments.[AcademicYear]) Like ([Please Enter Academic Year]) )& (len([groupwinterbox])+len([groupspringbox])+len([groupfallbox]) > 3) would work, but I keep getting pop-ups asking what the values of the three query-based calculations are.

View 11 Replies View RelatedI have a User Main Menu as seen below with the command buttons for New Work Log Entry and Edit Work Log Entry. The New Work Log entry opens a blank Work Log as shown below. The Work Log form's record source is tblWorkLog. The user will fill out all the fields except the End Page and Total Worked Pages. The user will then exit out of the database. When ready to enter the total worked pages the user log back in to the db and will click on the Edit Work Log Entry.
This is supposed to open up the last entry the current user was working on so that he or she can enter the End Page and Total Worked Pages
Currently it is opening up the last entry of the table even if it was a different user's.
How can I change this? I need it where it opens up the last record for that person. There are going to be 50 users so I can't have it open up to the last record of the table.
Any help will be apppreciated.

I have attached a student database that I created using the student database template in Access and have added additional tables, queries, etc. to fit our needs. One of the issues I'm having is users who are not very computer literate don't always remember if they have entered the right dates for attendance.
I had the idea of creating a "sample" student for each corresponding cycle with 100% attendance so they can compare what they have entered to what they "should" have entered. The reports are based on a query, so I know I can have the sample student show up with the correct information there. However, in the STUDENT DETAILS FORM, there is a pre-made code for the student's names to appear in the drop down and when you forward to the next record.
Can I have that altered to only show the ACTIVE students? This way the termed students would also not be a part of this drop down. I should still be able to go into the table itself and put in the sample student information when I create a new cycle, correct?
I have a report with 4 subreports. The report contains calculated fields that use the totals field in the different sub reports.
My issue is when one or more of the subreports does not have data in it. The sub report dissapears while in print preview, removing the totals row and ruining the calculated fields in the main report.
How can I keep the sub report visible even if no data is displayed? Or have it invisible but have the calculated fields still reference.
