In my first steps working with Access I feel unable to find out how can I create a report that shows the data (records from a Clients Table - Name, Phone, e-mail fields-) in a "spreadsheet like" format with gridlines. Can anyone help me on this?
I created a report that only has gridlines around the outside border of the entire report (rather than around each record). I want the grid line style on the last/bottom record to be solid so it boxes in all the records. When I change the "Gridline Style Bottom" for the records, each record has a bottom gridline rather than an outside box around all the records.
Does anyone know how to make a report have lines in it like excel can do when you print out. My boss likes to read this data with lines seperating stuff. Thanks.
how I get rid of the lines appearing in a report? I've set everything to transparent but the group header and subsequent records in the subreport all have separating lines.
The overall goal is to hide a whole line of a report using "canshrink" on a series of boxes, some of which are numbers and some that aren't. Some will be blank when the data is loaded into the form and I want these to make the rest of the form adjust.
Code: Private Sub Form_Load() If Me.Label33.Value = "<1" Then Me.Label34.Caption = "Nothing." End If End Sub
I have a specific form, paper version, that I'd like to reproduce in an Access report. This form, which has 34 blank lines in the paper version, is used when people need to borrow some Tools or Equipment on a short period of time.
My report is made up in Access, but, if a person signs for, lets say, three different piece of Equipment, once it is sent to the printer, it prints three lines, which are the equipement signed for and it leave a big empty space before it reach the page footer.
What I need is something that will fill that empty space with blank lines. I found the following on the Net which meets my needs up to a point. What I mean is once it print the last line, it keeps on printing the last line until it meets the total count of 34 lines.
Here what I found on the Net: (note that I have a =count(*) into the Group Header)
Option Compare Database 'Use database order for string comparisons Option Explicit Global TotCount As Integer ' Call the SetCount() function from the group header section's ' OnPrint property using the syntax: =SetCount(Report)
[Code] ....
I submitted an attach file (blank_lines.gif) to show you what I end up with.
It's my 1st posting! Need help on how to get Unbound OLE objects (i.e. lines, pics, et.) reflected when publishing my Access report into MS Word. So far, only the data are exported. Appreciate your help.

I need to replicate an existing report that has a number of 3 columns across the page and has 35-40 rows down the page...it's like a table in Word or a spreadsheet in Excel. I need to print the column and row lines.
Is there a simple way to include these in the report other than me drawing each and every line?
I would like to seek guidance again on my new project, I wanted to create a data entry form that the user can input records using my unbound label boxes, then upon hitting an add button it will go automatically on a subform below or a GRID so that the user can see all the records at a glance.
I have Grid X and Grid Y set at 24. Usually I see dots all over my forms.... which allows me to snap controls to the grid. Today I only see large boxes instead?
I am a beginner with aggregate functions. I have two tables, one describing parts, and one describing assemblies that use those parts:
tblParts show all the part descriptions, including fldPartNumber.
tlbWhereUsed shows zero or more fldAssemblyNumber records for each fldPartNumber.
I want a query that shows, for each record of tblParts, the number of assemblies that use that part. I specifically want to do this with an aggregate function:
I am using Access 2003 with Windows XP Pro. I have a problem with using a query and the dreaded UK Postcodes!
I have a Client table that contains a field “Client Postcode 1”, in which is entered the first part of the UK postcode i.e. AB11, WC1A, E1, EC2V, etc.
In a Candidate table here are many text fields where we enter which postcode a Candidate wants to work in, i.e. TN, CV4, EC, W, etc.
We have a separate Candidate Search form where we select a particular client (Combo box from the Client table) which then displays the Client’s Postcode 1 data i.e. the first part of the UK postcode before the space.
We have a select query that then tries to match the Client Postcode 1 with the postcode that the Candidate wants to work in from the Candidate’s table.
In this query design grid I have successfully created criteria that will match the Client Postcode 1 field to the Candidate’s postcode field – very straightforward. This, for example, will match a Client with a TN39 postcode with a Candidate who wants to work in the TN39 postcode.
In the same query design grid I have also been able to successfully match the Client Postcode 1 field to a Candidate’s Postcode field using just the first 2 letters (using Left). This matches a Candidate who wants to work anywhere in the TN postcode area (TN1, TN2 etc.) with a Client whose postcode starts with TN
However, what is stumping me is where a Client’s Post code has only 1 letter followed by numbers (E1, B2 etc) in the first part of their postcode without returning EX, BL etc. I would like the accumulated wisdom on this forum to point me in the right direction to design criteria to input into the query design grid that will match ONLY the first letter of the postcode IF the second character is a number.
with criteria: >=#01/10/2006# And <=#31/10/2006# This seems to work on october data no problem
I had hoped to put all the september data into the same data table and filter but it failed so I created a new table called september data and pointed the query to it but for september: with criteria: >=#01/09/2006# And <=#30/09/2006#
however the query fails if I take out the calldate expression it works no problem.
In fact it works providing I dont try and filter on date or sort by ascending.
it says data type mismatch in criteria expression. I had hoped that datevalue would turn the string into a date.
Its strange that it works in one query and not in the other with only the data being different.
Can anyone see why this should fail have I done something stupid?
I have a orders sub form that was working great .Then all of asudden when i when to input information into the fields i realised the grid under variuos field names has disappered (Icant enter any info),surly this must be something i have accidentally done without realizing.
I am writing a database to track our (and others) wine collections. i'm wanting to track what bottle is where. so i can look up what i have, look up where i have put it and away i go to get it, simple right?
just to complicate things i want a system in place. where the end user and use forms to add/remove or modify wine racks.
assuming that all racks are rectangular i would like to be able to add a rack and call it rack 1. rack 1 has 4 shelves all able to hold 5 bottles. the database would then say that bottle X is in rack 1 shelf 1 position 1.
if possible there will aslo be a screen that is auto generated by the database showing a simple grid with grrn and red squares denoting if the position if full or empty. the ability to click on a position to see what is in there or to add a bottle there would be amasing but not fussed if that can't be done.
I have a query that runs to check if a form has any empty delay hrs.
Code: SELECT [Tble-wcDelays].ID1, [Tble-wcDelays].LinkingID, [Tble-wcDelays].HoursDelay, [Tble-wcDelays].ReasonDelay FROM [Tble-wcDelays] GROUP BY [Tble-wcDelays].ID1, [Tble-wcDelays].LinkingID, [Tble-wcDelays].HoursDelay, [Tble-wcDelays].ReasonDelay HAVING ((([Tble-wcDelays].LinkingID)=[Forms]![Frm-RPC]![wetcleanID]) AND (([Tble-wcDelays].HoursDelay) Is Null)) OR ((([Tble-wcDelays].LinkingID)=[Forms]![Frm-RPG]![wetcleanID]) AND (([Tble-wcDelays].HoursDelay) Is Null));
I'm trying to avoid cerating multiple queries that dothe same thing. But if this qurey runs from the form "FRM-RPG" then It errors because it can't find "FRM-RPC" so why does it not over look that frm and go to the 2nd Frm ?
I have a search page and would like to display the search results in a grid/table format. User will be able to select a row to go to a detail screen. What is the best component type to use for this?
I am struggling with a slight form delay. When it opens on the OnOpen event, i am populating a grid. This takes about 3 to 5 seconds but, the it also takes the form the same time to open. What i need to do is get the form to open then populate the grid. Can i make the form open first then populate?
Here is a project. I have a grid on a form. its width is 20cm wide and 15cm tall. in the grid are 6 groups of columns (all columns listed are from left to right).
Group 1 - 5cm wide - description Group 2 to 6 are 30cm wide and represent days. Each group is split into 8 columns which represent hours per working day.
I need to to draw or position a line over the grid depending on what day it is and time. for example, lets say its thursday at 14.30. ( the 8 hour columns run from 8am to 4pm ) it would need to look like this-
So I need to work out the position of of the line depending on the time of of the day in the week. The day can be determined by the column header, the time by the grid....
