Changing Vertical Text On A Report

Oct 2, 2005

Not sure if this is possible but I have a few text boxes on a report set to vertical yes under properties. They print fine, but on the pre-printed forms I'm using they print upside down. Is there a way to realign they way the text prints when using the vertical yes setting? I really need they text to be inverted. I'm I asking an impossible question? Thanks..

Changing Rowsource In A Combo Box Depending On The Text In Another

Jul 10, 2007

Hi all,
I am trying to have the rowsource change on a "subcategory" combo box depending on what the "category" combo box says.

I added an event procedure to the "Category" combo box which changes the Row Source in the subcategory combo box to something else. I'm not sure that I did this right as if I close the database and reopen it, what I selected in the subcategory combobox is gone and it is blank. Any ideas? Here is my simple, likely incorrect event procedure:

Private Sub Category_Change()

If Category.Text = "Rare Books" Then
SubCat.RowSource = "scRareBooks"

End If

If Category.Text = "Legal Documents" Then
SubCat.RowSource = "scLegalDocuments"

End If


End Sub

Thanks!

Forms :: Changing Multiple Text Boxes To Combo Boxes?

Mar 14, 2014

there is a way to convert multiple text boxes to combo boxes all at once, rather than right clicking on them one at a time, and selecting Change to.

I have a form with about 50 fields and most of them need to be converted to combo boxes. I'd always done it manually one at a time up to this point, but I'm trying to build up my learning and look for smarter ways to do things.

Access 2013 Report Data Showing Up As Number Rather Than Text

Aug 13, 2015

I have a people table; Ethnicity Table; Program Type Table; Attendance Table.

I enter the people into the people table then enter people into the attendance table with lookup for name from the people table and a lookup for program type from program type table and enter date attended. I then run a query on the attendance table to remove duplicates. I created a form from the attendance query there are 3 headers Program, Ethnicity, Name. but the program type comes up as the ID number and not the text name.

The Ethnicity did the same thing but when I added the Ethnicity from the people table to the ethnicity header it show up as the name and I hide the box with the number but when I add the program type from the program type table to the program header is changes the source of the report to the program type table and then nothing shows up. It did not do that when I added the ethnicity type from the ethnicity table to the ethnicity header.

Number Field Changing

Jan 17, 2005

This might be simple but I just can't figure it out.

I have a table that has a number field. Everytime I enter the number 1.50, it changes to 2. I would like to keep the 1.50. Somehow, I can't get this right. Is there a setting that I have to change? Would I need to make setting changes on the form portion also?

thanx for any help

Changing The Starting Number Of The Autonumber

Apr 7, 2007

I have a table with a compound key, and one of the two fields in the compound key has to start at 100 and finish at 999 and I'd like it so that each number didn't have to be typed in individually.

So I thought about using an autonumber that somehow starts at 100 but doesn't go over 999 if thats possible? Or if you have any other ideas on how I could achieve this?
Thanks

I have a subform where you can add multiple records. i have a command button labelled NEXT (which obviously navigates to the next record) but I only want this to be enabled when there is more than one record.

Reports :: Changing The Total Number Of Pages?

Feb 3, 2015

I have a report I want to generate in Access 2010. I have a text box with the following:

Code:

="Page " & [Page] & " of " & ([Pages]+[Forms]![ReportForm]![PageCount])

What I am attempting to do is increase the maximum number for the total number of pages in the report. As it reads right now when I go into print preview it looks like

"Page 1 of " That is all. It doesn't seem to calculate the new total number of pages. Yes the report form is open, and yes there is value in the PageCount in the Report Form.I had this working in another database, but this one isn't being as nice. The reason for adding to the total page count is because additional pages will be added to the report that aren't in the database. how to increase the total number of pages in the report.

Reports :: Generate Number Of Rows In Report Depending On Number In Another Field

Nov 4, 2013

I have a form where we fill in information for supply of equipment to employees.

Each item must be signed for on a printed report.

I am encountering problems trying to create enough rows in my report detail for each signature of the items supplied.

For example, on the form I will select the "equipment" - 4 hats supplied and 3 boots. On the report I want the equipment set as the group and the detail to be a number or rows which equals the number of selected items. therefore under the Hats group heading I want 4 blank rows which are made up of 3 text boxes - Print Name, Signature & Date and another group heading for boots but with 3 lines.

General :: Phone Number Changing By Itself In Table Field

Aug 14, 2013

In Access 2002, I have a Phone Number field (Text) that is meant to store (obviously enough) phone numbers. However, when I enter 2009 as the last four digits (ex. (555)-555-2009) the number is changed to (555)-555-2010. This also occurs if I enter the number directly into the table (which doesn't have an input mask). I have tested it in a new form (even without input mask), and a new table, which both result in the exact same thing.

Reports :: Changing Format In Calculated Field (whole Number)

Apr 22, 2015

I have a calculated field in a report, which is as follows:

=IIf(IsNull([POI_E1A]),(([TodaysDate]-[EADDate])/365)/3,[A1]+[T2]+[A3]+[T4]+[A5]+[T6]+[A7]+[A8])

The calculation works fine; however, I only want to show the whole number (not rounded up; not rounded down). In other words, if the result is 0.9967, then I want 0 to appear.

I cannot figure out how to make this happen. In the properties section I ensured the format was "general number" with 0 decimal places but this didn't change the result. I tried changing the format in the calculated field, again, I wasn't successful.

Report Prints The Same Number Of Times As The Number Of Records

Jul 10, 2006

I've created a report and report has the same number of pages as the number of records that it's displaying.

If there are two records, the report has 4 pages...the first 2 are the actual report and then the other 2 are a copy. If there are 3 records, the report would have 3 copies (...6 pages).

Any idea how to change this so that I have only one copy of the report?

Changing Date To Text

Jun 30, 2005

I have searched and found references to converting text to dates. I need to go the other way. I have client# field and a date field. I would like to make an update query to populate a new field by concatenating the two fields minus the "/". I am making a new key field in an existing table. Then in the future when data entry is done, I would like to convert the date and client# as they are entered. I was looking at using the left$ or right$ function, but the dates may be in mm/dd/yyyy format or m/dd/yyyy format or m/d/yyyy and so on, depending on the month and day. Is there an easy way to convert the date to a number? I tried datevalue, but it leaves the "/" in there. I'm not sure how to section off the parts of the date I need, when the month and day vary between 1 and 2 digits. Thanks for any help.

Changing A Text Value In An Expr:

Nov 27, 2007

Hello all,

I'm using M$ Access 2002. I have a query which contains an expr as one of the fields. The expression adds three text fields together to create a salutation. This is the expression:

Expr1: [students].[Fname] & " " & [students].[LNAME] & " " & [students].[gradelvl]

Where all three fields are of the Text data type. I am trying to display the students grades for next year. So if the value of [students].[gradelvl] is "10", it should display "11". If it were a Number data type I think this would be easier for me to figure out.

Any ideas?

Thanks for your help,
cheers maX

Changing The Color Of A Text Box

Dec 21, 2004

This is very close to the label question that I also have posted. I am trying to get my report to have the back ground of some text boxes turn yellow if they are populated. I can get them to turn yellow, but they turn yellow whether they are populated or not. I have the code in the Report Open event. Here is some of the code that I have.

If Not IsNull(MMSJob) Then
MMSJob.BackColor = 65535
Else
MMSJob.BackColor = vbWhite
End If

Can anyone help me?

Changing Code Via Text Box

Nov 25, 2005

Hello,
in my Access database there is quite a bit of VBA code.
I have set my LAN and file path in some of this code but will need to change it when this database will get to other users using a different LAN and path.

Is there a way I can avoid them to open the code and manually change this information?
I was thinking of some sort of text box where they will write their path (ex. \S01000sharedoffice*.*) and use a cmdbutton to overwrite the existing path?

Thanks.

Reports :: Changing Name On Report Tab?

May 11, 2013

After changing data source , header and name of report, only the design view tab changes to the new name of the report. i.e. Changed copy of "Fiscal Quarter 01 Report" to "Fiscal Quarter 02 Report". When open in design view, name tag of report is "Fiscal Quarter 02 Report". In any other view, name tag of report is "Fiscal Quarter 01 Report". If I need to have both reports open in report view, they both have "Fiscal Quarter 01 Report" on the name tab - Very Confusing! How do I get all tabs for a renamed report changed to the new name?

Cascading Combo Box Changing Records

Jul 13, 2006

I have attached a Microsoft inventory db that I have attempted to alter and apply to my needs.

I added cascading combo boxes to allow the users to make selections of products specific to categories. Once the category is selected in the CategoryID combobox the cascaded combo boxes ProductName & SerialNumber become populated with the products that belong to the category selected in CategoryID. This works as it should.

The problem comes after a record is selected and an attempt to switch categories is made. For example, say an inventory transaction for the product named "V1" which belongs to the "Special" category is entered. As soon as I switch back to the "Routine" category with the combobox, the product "V1" is now associated with the "Routine" category.

I know Access is just doing what it's supposed to but I need to find out how to prevent the category information for products from changing when a new category is selected in the first combobox. I've tried requeries, gotoRecords and various other commands without luck.

I have attached my db in hopes that a solution can be reached more efficiently.

Thanks in advance.
