I have a word 2010 reports that is linked to an access 2010 form. SQL is used to populate the report with some of the fields from the form. Is it possible to create a combo-box with two selections (Mike, Paul) in it. And then have two other fields populate based on the selection in that combo-box? For example, if Mike is selected then an Address: and Phone Number: fields are filled in with his information. And if Paul is selected his information fills in.
Is there a way to export a query of 14 items to a word report. I have a table of 14 items in that I use as a query but it only exports 1 item to the report.
I have been trying to set up this query via VBA code but, with no luck, have gone back to the query in design view. Basically the parameters of the query are determined by combo boxes in a form. This is fine if one combo box indicates one criteria but a problem arisis when multiple combo boxes are possible parameters for one field.
i.e. Field 1 = combo box one field 2= combo box two field three = combo box three, four or five.
i have found it difficult running this, especially in terms of a returning all if a combo is left blank. the problem with setting this up on field three would be that if i run combo box four and five to return all if left blank it overides the other command to set a specific parameter. Also, for some reason i can tdecide whether this is an AND or OR command, its actually both i.e. Field three parameter = combo box three and/or combo box4 etc...
I have created a report in MS Access. When I choose the option to Publish to MS Word, I loose all of the background colors. Is this correct or am I doing something wrong? Is there a way to maintain all of the Format features when I publish?
I'm trying to add the information from a form and subforms to a report. This would be a medication mar sheet and needs to be in the format of the attached word document. I'm happy to do it in a report and change the formatting if that will work better. The personal info needs to go at the top and the medication needs to be listed on each sheet.
The form is called FrmMarSheet. It basically needs the info from that like the "sample mar sheet.doc". I can only get one medication per page to work at the moment.

Hi all im new to this and im trying to make a from that will display a sub from containg infomation that can be changed by altering a combo box.
im not sure if its possible but i want to have the combo box containing names of people and then the sub form to display records that relate just to the selected person. and when the combobox's selection changes so does the displayed data.
i don't know if its possible to make a dynamic query that will take the text value in the combo box and use it in a query to query the data i have. and then produce just the data corisponding to one person. :eek: :confused:
ANY HELP on this would be greatly appreaceated. i have a feeling thatis simple but i have been pulling my hair out trying to find out how to do it. :confused:
sorry for the repeating of a previous thread but i have looked at all of the replys on the first combo box controlled query and have followed what was reccomended but i still have some problems. :(
i have three combo boxes and i want to query a single table with the selected combo options.
atm i am using the criteria part of a query to filter the results by the combo box [forms]![Form1]![cboStaff]
this works well for one thing but when i want two i have put them in line which means AND so both combo boxes have to have a value in and then the query looks for combo box ones value with combobox 2's value.
is there any way i can make the value in the second combo box mean any result. which would effectivly turn the query into a search for just the first criteria set by the combo box???
please help i have been going round in circles trying to figure out how i am going to do this :confused:
I've created a rather simple Access program that I use to import an employee's cookie summary txt file. I then sort the cookies for 1) time of day, and 2) appropriateness.
I found a way to create the queries - in simple design mode using criteria - but I want system administrators in other offices to be able to enter the time of day variables particular to their offices. Same with appropriate words. So I want a form they can use to do that - eg, list their office's break times. In essence, a setup page. Then the resulting queries (time of day and word list) will be customized to the particulars of that office rather than to mine.
Would appreciate some ideas on how to do this. Should I read up on SQL? Should I learn VBA? I'm trying to get around having to tell the other system administrators to go into each query and change the criteria manually.
I have a Report that contains, among other things, Pictures & Check Boxes. When I try to export into a Word (.rtf) document,the Data exports just fine, but the pictures & check boxes are lost. Is there a way to export the Report into Word keeping all formatting intact?
First, thanks to all that have helped me with out even knowing it! This forum is a lifesaver.
Problem: I have a control button that, through macro commands that seem to be working, changes a field value from locked=no to locked=yes. This macro control also changes the enabled setting to = false.
When I save and exit the form, upon reopening, the above cell value is not saved. Is there a simple fix for a simple-minded person?
Currently, I have a button on my form that users can click on to generate a report based on the info from the form. Once the report has opened, they publish the form with MS Word for further edit if needed.
How do I set up the button so that it opens the report then automatically publishes the report with MS Word?
I need to create a form that automatically populates Dealer_ID in my Customers table when a user selects Dealership from a dropdown box.
The form is updating all of the user controlled fields in the Customer table as the user inputs the information. I have a separate Dealership table who's Primary Key is Dealer_ID where dealership information (including the dealer name) is stored. A one to many relationship is in place that connects Dealer_ID from the Dealership table to the same field in the Customer table. The user inputting the information will know what the dealership name is but will not know their ID. I need a solution that will allow the user to select a dealership name in the form and auto-populate the Dealer_ID field in the Customer table with the appropriate ID from the Dealership table.
Iv added a 'subform/subreport' to one of my forms.I wanted to use this to display a report. Therefore i assumed that i would simply set the source object to my desired report and hey presto! But no, when i look in the source object drop down list, my report doesnt appear.how i can display a report within a form??
I have a report that groups by a project name and then a repeating field to list all associated detail having to do with the project. Then the projects loop to the next.Each project row is the same height as the combined detail rows. And to be able to print guidelines just as you would with a word table.
This is what currently happens. +-------+-----------------+---------+ | Project.|.-detail row 1......| Open.....| +-------+-----------------+---------+ ............|.-detail row 2......| ............+-----------------+ ............|.- detail row 3......| ............+-----------------+
I'm thinking I need to do it with vba putting each into a variable then set the field to be the value of the variable. but i'm also not sure how to do that as it repeats like that.
