View RepliesHow would I go about creating a datasheet style form with 'sort by' headers
for example:
I could create a form with a list box sorted by 'name' by default. If i wanted the same data to appear but sorted by 'Address' or 'Phone Number' how would I go about this?
Many databases give a datasheet view of the data where you can sort by clicking the appropriate header... how could this be achieved in access?
any hints or suggestions welcomed?
I am attempting to create my first crosstab query in design view. Adding a simple row and column header and one value, I always get the error message 'Too many crosstab column headers (454)'. What am I doing wrong? Here is the SQL:
TRANSFORM Sum(Forecast.QTY) AS SumOfQTY
SELECT Forecast.HECI
FROM Forecast
GROUP BY Forecast.HECI
PIVOT Forecast.QTY;

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to import an Excel spreadsheet into an Access table and running into a snag. Since the spreadsheet doesn't have column headers, I keep getting Run-time error '2391' - Field '0000000' doesn't exist in the destination table ... my table name.How can I import the data from a spreadsheet so that it ignores the fact that there is no column headers?
Here is the VBA/Module:

I was wondering if a list box can be made so the header of each columns is clickable.. so you can sort by that column either alphabetically or numerically?
View 1 Replies View RelatedWon't the captions reflect on Queries as Query Column Headers? If it is, how to make it reflect...
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am in the process of developing a pivot table with grouping per month per year which works just fine. However, I would like to rename the column header items. It will not allow me.
The scenario:
the data is from a query that deprives data from two tables (Date from Table A) and (TypeID from Table B: Query will show TypeID in text format based on SELECT to show data in text format not numeric format).
The struggle:
Renaming the column headers which shows the TypeID in numbers based on its ID (the first column of Table B), not its Description (the second column of the Table B).
The question:
How do I make the column headers to show the TypeID in text based on its Description in the second column of the Table B?
The data is pasted in cell B1, but there are no column headings.
Code:
Dim rs As dao.Recordset
Dim oExcel As Object
Dim oBook As Object
Dim oSheet As Object
Set rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("Name of my Query")
[Code] ....
If I copy the query manually and paste to Excel I get headings, so how should I edit this code to make it do that?
Secondly, I'll need to do a lot of formatting: set some column widths, wrap text, set borders etc. Theoretically I could export the data to a preformatted template, but the output could be anything from 10 rows to over 200, so I don't know how that could work.
I would like to export from access a recordset into Excel and bold the column headers.
My current code works for the most part, except for the bolding.
You run the code in Access module and the code does the following:
1) checks to see if the excel file is open
2) if excel file not open, it opens the file, clears existing records, and starts copying and pasting new recordset into the RAW worksheet
3) it is then supposed to bold the column headers.
bolding is not working.
Code:
Sub TestFileOpened()
Dim lastRow As Long
' Test to see if the file is open.
If IsFileOpen("c: est2003.xls") Then
' Display a message stating the file in use.
MsgBox "File already in use!"
[code]....
I have two separate reports. They have identical formatting. When I click on Adobe: Convert to PDF, this is what happens. Report 1 will convert with light blue in the column headers. Report 2 will convert with grey scale in the column headers. I have no clue as to how to make them both light blue or both grey scale. My boss wants them to match.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a report in Access that produces variable headers as the output is different from client to client. When exporting to PDF everything works great but when exporting to Excel these variable headers are exported with their true names. Col8, Col9, Col10 etc. And our clients insist on Excel reports. Is there a way to get the assigned name to export to Excel? Assigned names would be something like Medical, Dental, Vision or whatever is applicable to the client and is assigned to the report through VBA code. BTW, the data for the report is pulled from a cross-tab query so exporting directly from the query has its own set of formatting issues and is the reason I am using a report with variable column headers.

I'm just wondering if there's any way I can do this with a datasheet or a crosstab type setup?
It's Access 2010.
I have a crosstab query of which I cannot sort a Totals column by descending order. Is there any way to sort a certain column automatically after the query runs and is in Datasheet view?
View 4 Replies View RelatedDoes anyone know how to sort subform records by clicking column headers. I know there is one way by select column and click A->Z button from toolbar. Is there other way to do so? I know there are same kind of posting, but they couldn't solve my problem.
Any help would be very appreciated.
I have a dynamic cross tab query - thus the column headings will change each time it is run.
At present the column headings are displayed in alphabetical order - how can I change this so they are based on a different order - eg by the descriptions corresponding ID
I have an issue sorting the results on my Access 2010 Report. Here are the details:
- Report Record Source = "Portfolio Ranking"
- Portfolio Ranking is the name of a query
- The query includes a calculated field called "Impact Score"
- FYI: this is a web database (not sure if that limits what I can do)
I want to sort the report on the Impact Score column. However, when I view the query calculation for Impact Score, the "Sort" field says "(not sorted)" and it's greyed out, so I can't select Descending as desired.
Hi all,
I have a very simple form that details loan machines for customers.
What I need is a very obvious sign on each record to see if the machine is in our stock or not.
A normal check box is an ovious answer but they are too small and my users complain (bigger glasses were an option :) ).
Ideally a toggle button or something that the user can click and it will change colour maybe between Green and Red (Please see attached screen shot) Green for in stock and red for out on loan. Any ideas or suggestions would be fantastic.
Hello there!
This is my very first post on this forum. I started to work with Acces and SQL only two weeks ago, so my questions probably are newbie-stuff, but please bare with me and please help me anyway :-)
In my form I've inserted a list that shows data from one of my tables. The posts are ordered by 'ID' (and I know how to change this). But I want to make a button just right of it, that, when it's clicked, sorts the list by 'first name' instead.
How do I make such one???

I have a form that shows multiple rows of linked/child records.The form in question is the "frmFilterNumberTypeView" form. When a particular filter is used (installed on an automobile), I would like to be able to click on the corresponding "Installed 1" button left of the filter number, so that by code, I can reduce the Qty on Hand by One, and insert the corresponding filter ID to the History table, along with the date/time the filter was used.
how to reduce the Qty on Hand, nor how to do the updates to the History table, I'll figure that out myself over the next week or two (hopefully it won't take that long). What I'm trying to figure out here is how I can associate the red "Installed 1" button with the filter to the right of whichever button I press.
how to sort the filter column on this same form. I'm fairly certain that this would be very easy to do if the subform in question was populated by means of a corresponding query, but I'm afraid that if I go that route that I'll spend another 20+ hours trying to figure out how to get the proper filter records to match the filter manufacturer, not to mention having to next figure out how to link the table so that if I modify any particular filter record, that I'll be able to have the associated table update accordingly.
Is it possible to sort the filter column without the subform record source being a query?
Hi,
I need help with listbox problem:
I made a listbox contains peoples name from A to Z.
I want to sort it via A to Z button press.
It's similar with customer phone list form in Northwind.mdb sample,
due to my limited knowledge, I can't replicate it using listbox.
Any sample to do this?
Thankyou.
Gunawan.
I created a button for a form using a built-in macro function for sorting records,
and I am returned with the following error:
THE COMMAND OR ACTION 'SortAScending' ISN'T AVAILABLE NOW.
Is there any work-a-round code to fix?
I'm displaying records in a subform that is in the datasheet format.I would like a sort button on my main form so that I can click a column header, press this button and it can sort the datasheet ascending.
View 4 Replies View RelatedIve created a form and one of the fields is a field called "Due Date"
I want to create a button that once pressed will sort the records in order of due date with the oldest being record 1.
How I can get a button to manipulate fields.
Ive got a set of buttons at the bottom of my form (Ive placed them in the footer) that were set up using Access automatically. They go to first, last, next and previous records. Ive also set up two extra, one that creates a new record and another that sets the record.
The thing is that the set record button I would actually like it to take the data in a field called "Frequency", add a random number to it and then set the record.
