if there is a VBA command that returns the current view of the current active report. I am running code the uses the SetFocus Action, which works fin in Report view, but when I try to go to Print Preview view, Access throws an error stating that the command or action is not available in the current view - and the GetFocus action is the culprit.I can skip the GetFocus action if I know the Report is in Print Preview mode.
View RepliesI have a report which shows all the records in my database. I have a command button on my form which brings up that report for preview.
How can I get the button to bring up that report showing only the current record being viewed on the form?
Do I need a separate report and what criteria/VB code is required?
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 know how to put things on to the clipboard, DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdCopy
I just want to view the current contents of the clipboard in access 2003 using vba.
I Found this code whilst searching for a solution:-
Dim DataObj As New MSForms.DataObject
DataObj.GetFromClipboard
MyString = DataObj.GetText
But it needs the Microsoft Forms2 Object Library
This is not in the list of references, how to get it?
Or how to read the clipboard a different way.
So I have to text boxes, one for month and one for year. Below is the control source for each box. When I go into Report View, I get January 1905....This is definitely NOT January 1905....I've checked the date on my clock, it says today's date...
=Format(Month(Now()),"mmmm")
=Format(Year(Now()),"yyyy")
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.
Hi.
i.e
I have a query with the following sort of information:-
MonthAmount
08/2007£100
09/2007£200
10/2007 £55
11/2007£60
As today being the 1st October, I would like the query to return the values for Oct and Nov.
The same values would be returned on the 31st Oct, but then the following day, only the Nov value would be returned...so, basically, it only returns the values of the current month and following months..
I am assuming I put something in the criteria of the query under the month? I have tried a number of things, with none working!!!
Thanks for reading....

I have a query that returns records in datasheet view. I need a field to accept the user selection from a drop down, then save that to a table. The query is based on a couple queries and one of those queries is based on the table i need to save the user input into. When i make a selection from the drop down list it puts the selection in that field for all the records and then doesn't save.

Hi guys. I am trying to help a client regards an un-supported access database. They have a DB that is shared across a network (only have experiance on database on single client, never set up security etc....). The DB is installed on the Server.
The DB is access via a mapped network drive. The Database folder contains the following files:
MKC Clients_Quesries.mdb
MKC Clients.mde
MKC Clients_.des
On one machine the MKC Clients.mde is launched and 1086 records are visible. On a second machine the same MKC Clients.mde is opened but displays only 977 records?? An I missing the obvious?
Any help appreciated, she is a nice lady!!

The solution might be in front of my nose but I cannot see it... I have a query with all my records I need to extract only records of the current year, so that now will show all 2006, as we enter into the following year it will show all the 2007.
What is the criteria I should put into the "Date" field I have?
Thanks
Does the MS Access Report support Hide/Show specific fields according to parameters or even by click?
View 3 Replies View RelatedThe aim of what I am doing is to create a monthly statement to give to our intermediaries that shows the commission they will receive each month for the deals they have referred. I have managed to create this report, HOWEVER I can't figure out how to filter out which month I need, so I a report for Jan, Feb Mar etc... The idea is that at the end of each month I need to run the report so only the latest month shows...
View 3 Replies View RelatedI created a combo box that runs a parameter query based on the name entered in the box.
Is there some way to return the results as a report instead of in datasheet view?
I'm wondering if inserting some sort of code into the event procedure of the "OK" button (which launches the query) would work.
Would greatly appreciate help---
I have a field on a report which I am struggling to produce the right query for.
I have a table - tblTillDept which consists of a 4 fields. The first is the PK, which is the number of a till department. The second - fourth fields are names of 3 different branches of the small garden centre I am writing the database for. The values in these fields are the names of the corresponding departments. Not every branch has exactly the same name for each field.
Prior to the report being is run, a small form, frmCentre pops up asking the user to select the Centre they are printing the labels for. They select the name of the branch from a combo box (cboCentre) bound to a field list of tblTillDept. When the report is formatted, the intention is that the value of this combo box selects the field from which the value for the department is taken. I can see that I need to set the control source of this property to some sort of query, but I can't quite work out how to do it.
I've uploaded the database, written in Access 2000, here (http://www.moppy.co.uk/plants.mdb) as it's too big to post as an attachment.
In my query, I have the week number and year arranged like this - "Y14-W11"
I want to return a value in a text box on a report if the string contains, for example, W11. In this textbox I've put the expression
Code:
=IIf([Y##-W##]="*" & "W11" & "*","2100000","BLAH")
But this just returns the falsepart no matter if the string contains W11 or not.
I have a textbox on a subform and I want to get the sum in a string as follows.
Code:
Dim s1 As String
s1 = Sum(Forms!CountItem!CountItemLastCount.Form!ThisCount)
MsgBox s1
When I use the above I get an error message saying - Sub or function not defined and it highlights the sum part of the equation.
I have been using the sum criteria in a textbox but if the user doesn't tab of the box then it doesn't see it as being updated.
I have tried me.dirty and everything else that usually works like send keys tab event, requery form and controls, a left mouse click but nothing is working, therefore I thought that code to actually update the textbox may work.
I have a subform when a user presses Return Or Enter it doesnt go to a new record but instead enters a new line in the same records how can i prevent this from happeneing.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a form with a field within it called ID number, another table contains the ID number with a person's name next to it. I was wondering how I can make it so that in the form, when the ID number is entered, the name of the person also shows next to it and does so automatically for each different record. I am pretty sure that a subform is needed however it doesn't seem to work for me so I must be doing it wrong. How would I do this?

I've seen this question asked in multiple places but do not understand the answers (yet). I haven't worked with the ribbon and XML before.
I'm able to turn off the navigation panel and the ribbon completely which gives the user a nice, empty screen. However, when reports are selected, they open up in Print Preview but the ribbon doesn't return with the Print Preview.
In short, how do I get the Print Preview ribbon to return when generating a report?

My combo boxes are not returning the actual combo box values back to my table, instead in the table it is displaying the combo box data list number i.e 1,2,3,1,5,1 etc where it should be displaying a property address.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhich function in access return the the last value in a string.
Period 1 Period 2 Period 3
10 20 30
I need the function to return 30.The reason behind this I have different periods for categories and my formula I'm using needs the ending value.
I would like a field's default value to return the date of the previous Monday.
For example:
Now = Tuesday, 08-Apr-14
Return Monday, 07-Apr-14
Further example:
Now = Saturday, 12-Apr-14
Return Monday, 07-Apr-14
I have got a tricky problem, for which I can find no answer - but then I am a bit of a novice here.
I have created a (probably too-) complicated relational database but what I really need is to be able to make abutton on the page of my address book form, so that when I hit it it creates a report of an address label for that current record on the screen only.
I hope this makes sense. If this is possible, I then need to extrapolate this technique to print a report of a subform (of samples sent) of a current client record.
