In one of my databases, I have a form and a report where the images stored in my tables are not showing properly for all entries. They show as an icon with the file name rather than the image itself. This is not true for every entry, so I don't think it would be a problem with how the form and report are set-up.

View 2 Replies View RelatedHi there,
I have a "minor" problem which most of you will probably have a laugh about :eek:
I have set up my Table / Form to have an image for each "item".
Now...when I add the image, it does not show up as the thumbnail JPG. It only appears as the image name.
So instead of seeing a picture, I see 1.jopg (example)
Can anyone help me with a correct hint?
Much appreciated

I have photos stored in a folder on a drive. I have referenced them before in a simple picture viewer I created in a form. I create the file name by referencing the values of a list box on the field.
Example:
The list box has piid.2005.001 and image name is 2
filename = C:Temp" & pidd & "" & piid & "_" & imageName & ".jpg"
C:Temppiid.2005.001piid.2005.001_2.jpg
Each piid has it's own set of photos in their own folder
Now. I want to be able to print out all the files in a report/form. The piid and image name are stored in a table called tblPhotos so I could reference there.
I want to have a button I click that generates a report/form that spits out all the photos in that folder. Next to a button would be a text box (txtWhichPiid) where you enter in the piid and that's how you know which piid's photos to use.
I just updated to the latest version of Office 365 and now have MS Ascess "2016 MSO (16.0.4229.1029) 32-bit" installed on my Win 10 PRO 64-bit system.
I have images in several reports that I print out. These images displayed and printed just fine under the older version of Access. Under the new version, they neither display, nor print. They are visible in Report, Layout and Design view, but not in print view. They do not print nor do they export to a PDF file either.
I run a Query based on some data in a "drop-down" box. It works in just datasheet view, but when I print it on a report, it displays the position that the data is in the drop-down box.
How do I display the data, not the position on the report? Here's an example:
My drop down box contains:
apples
oranges
bananas
My query returns apples, but in the report view it displays the number "1" instead of my data "apples". If the query returned oranges, the report would display "2" instead of "oranges" and so on.
Any ideas?

I have a memo field with RTF that shows properly on forms. For example
"<strong>"&"my text: "&"</strong>"&"more text" displays my text: more text
However, on my report it looks like the characters (e.g., "<strong>"&"my text: "&"</strong>"&"more text").
The report control is RTF format. why it doesn't display as I'd like?
I have some images stored in a SQL Table which is linked into Access. These images have to be stored in the database as I also reference them on other platforms (Android, Web etc).
In my Access programme I need to display a continuous form / report showing each image. Now, good old Access cannot display multiple images stored in the database on a continuous form. It can only do this if it is referencing the path to the image.
When the user views the form they will only see about 12 images at a time. I thought of a workaround which is to write the database images back to file to a local temp directory when the user loads the form. The user would be happy to wait for say 10 to 15 seconds whilst the form loads.
However, I cannot find an efficient algorithm to write the images back to a file. The one I am using is a BinarytoString algorithm by motobit which is fine for very small images, but anything over 100kb (which is still pretty small) it goes sooooo slow.
How to quickly write an image stored as a long binary in an Access DB back to a file? Or do I need to crack open my Visual Studio and write some C# DLL to use instead...?
i want to open a report but only showing the result of one record in a sub form,
i have a field that is on all rows of the subform,[click to run] and what i want the user to be able to do is double click on this field and it will open the report with only the record information for that row displayed.
I currently have a combo box (combo121) on a form. I select the "Company" which is connected to "Company" in the query via [Forms]![courseinfo].[combo121]..That is working. When I press the "query" button on the form the selected company in the combo box is updated in the query and it updates the report templates.I also want to use the same system to populate a different report, using the same query. This works a bit differently.
Once the company is selected in the first combo box(combo121). I have other combo boxes which bring up students attached to that company. I have multiple combo boxes because I need select multiple students for the one report. These students are in fields "First Name" and "Last Name". So in the query I can only have those fields once. I have several links to the several combo boxes under "Last Name" as that is the "bound" selection for the combo box:
[Forms]![courseinfo].[comboname1]
[Forms]![courseinfo].[comboname2]
[Forms]![courseinfo].[comboname3]
Problem I am finding is this is bringing up several lines in the query. So when I try to populate the report with all of the different Students I have selected for the query, it won't work properly because I can only put "First Name" & 'Last Name" fields on the report once.
Dear All:
I have created a report in access 2000. What I wish to do is insert a signature on this report and as I scroll through the report, the signatures change. The fields on the report are name, major and dean.
The signatures reside on the "c" drive on the computer. This report is based on a query. I wish to link the signatures to a specific field(dean) so as I scroll through the report the signatures changes with the report.
I have searched the forums for a solution, but I am having difficulty.
Any ideas on how to accomplish this?
Many thanks,
Regards,
Dion
hi
i have created a form bringing together 3 queries. one of the queries contains images the other 2 queries are text/data information.
i am now creating a report to print out the queries. each query is made into a report and then combined with a main report [2 of the queries are subreports]. the code i have used to link the images so that i get a unique image with every record is
me.[cempic2].picture = me![combined_mage_path]
however when i print the report if the record contains more then 1 image i get the following [screenshot 2].
what i need to do is to limit the image print out for each record to the first image only. the only common naming criteria for all my images is 001.jpg, 002. jpg and so on
what i need to do is to show only the image for each record that ends with the criteria *001.jpg. how would i do this in VB?
thanks
Hi All;
Any advice would be much appreciated….
I have a db of products which drives an ASP website, and includes links to images, which I have now stored locally (with the image path amended to point to the local images folder) along with the images folder containing all the images.
What I now need to do, is produce Access reports using these images, this I initially assumed would be a simple task, but hasn’t in practice worked out that simple!!
So, I now have local folder containing the images, and the products table with an Image field that stores the local path to the image – How can I now get the record and corresponding image to appear in my report? I’ve tried using an OLE field for the images, but this means updating each record manually (unless there is any way of updating the OLE field from the existing image path field??)
Am I missing something totally obvious here?
Thanks in anticipation!
I have a report that looks like a letter on company letterhead. I wrote a macro that changes the report to .rtf, attaches it to an email so that we can send it to customers. The problem I'm having is that the .jpg logo graphic doesn't show up on the .rtf version of the report.
I've tried using .html and .doc formats and it doesn't transfer to those either. Is there a way to make the graphic stay on the letter?
HELP!
Thanks so much for any ideas.

How can I display multi images on 1 page as a grid view in access report...
View 5 Replies View RelatedI create several reports for several different companies. Report data is the same but the report header data changes based on the company selected. All works well until I attempted to add their individual logos. I have tried many of the suggested methods both here and elsewhere to set the image path in Image.picture and image.control source. But I get "windows can't open file". Access 2010 on Windows10 insists on using the insert picture window when i select an image control. There is a drop down in the property sheet. I've gotten it to work a couple times but then its gone after restart.
The header data comes from a table [Company] which has the fields - name, addr, phone, path to image, and active(yes/no)
I'm producing PDF reports in a VBA routine in Access through the DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport.
The routine works great, however i have now a new requirement and i need to change the report header so to if Country X is selected in a drop-down menu, then only image X is shown on the report header; if country Y is selected then only image Y is shown on report header.
I was simply thinking to make this through the "visible" option of the image, however it doesn't work because i get error "report must be open".
i have a database. the database have a table called CardDetails in this table there is like 1000 rows.The table have a field named MedicalId. and i have a folder . it's destination (D:CardPic) . this folder contains 1000 pic has the same names as the medical ids....i need to make a report and show on it these pic's the database doesn't have a afield that contains the path.i need to auto display the images on the report depending on the medical id.

I need to know if exist the system in Access 2007 to output a report in word document including images. Normally the output is "*.rtf", with a quite good quality but due to the file type it doesn't include the pictures.

I am running a form on top of a query with around 1500 records in it. The query mostly uses tables that are joined with referential integrity.
The form has buttons and conditional formatting.
It was fine until today, when suddenly the form has stopped loading properly. It looks all fragmented on the screen and I have to scroll down and scroll back up again for it to look right.
I have searched everywhere to find out what is causing this and how it can be fixed, but no luck yet. Can you help?
Thanks.
Hi,
I'm working in Access 97 and I've got a form that I want to use to create filters with.
There are a couple of things that I'm not clear about and I'd appreciate any suggestions that you can make:
1. The form seems to remember the last filter, so when I click on the Filter by form button it shows the last filter by default. I've included the following in the click event:
RunCommand (acCmdRemoveFilterSort)
Me.FilterOn = False
RunCommand (acCmdFilterByForm)
Surely either of the first two statements should remove the filter, shouldn't they? and if not then what are they for?
2. I can't get the 'OR' tabs to show at the bottom of the filter by form screen unless I apply the filter once and then click on the filter by form button again. Is there any way of forcing these tabs to appear?
Thanks for any help/advice you can offer.
Regards,

Okay, here's a question that should hopefully be simple. I have a form that I am setting the default value of two text boxes based on the form previous. Here's basically the rundown of what happensfrmForm1Input Month: FebruaryInput Year: 2012OK - Opens frmForm2 and then closes this one---------frmForm2Month_Default_Value: #Name?Year_Default_Value: 2012---------And this always happens for every month and every year. So could you tell me what could possibly be wrong with my "Month" default value? Here's the code...Private Sub Form_Load()Month_Query = [Forms]![frmStatementDialog]![Month]Year_Query = [Forms]![frmStatementDialog]![Year]Me.Month.DefaultValue = Month_QueryMe.Year.DefaultValue = Year_QueryEnd SubThanks!--Mike
View 1 Replies View RelatedI made a form a few years ago using Excel but it has become a major headache for anyone who wants to edit/update the content.
It's my responsibility to figure out how to fix this, but I don't really have any experience in form-creation! I'm not even sure what software to use... I've done some searching, and right now I'm thinking Access might have the tools that I need to help me complete this project (although I have no experience with the software at all right now).
I'm looking for some help on getting started.. so I will describe the project, and hopefully someone can answer a few of my questions.
This form has 3 sections: input, Q&A, and the summary. The input section is handled by the company before presenting the Q&A to a client. In the Q&A portion the client's name, company, and other personal information are pulled from the input section and placed mid-sentence in the questions. This is a personal touch we would like to keep when re-creating the form.
The Q&A portion also includes radio buttons, checkboxes, dropdown lists and input fields where the client can type out their answers sometimes. Here is an example of what the first 2 pages may look like:
PAGE 1: Question 1:
Do you have a clearly defined purpose for your plan?
http://img425.imageshack.us/img425/3589/radio9sx.jpg If YES record the purpose below:
_______________________________________________
http://img425.imageshack.us/img425/3589/radio9sx.jpg If NO, choose a sample purpose from the drop-down box
to help get you started:
http://img200.imageshack.us/img200/7386/dropdown1vu.jpg
PAGE 2: Question 2:
What selection critera did you use to select your service provider?
http://img71.imageshack.us/img71/2890/checked4na.jpg Investment options provided
http://img200.imageshack.us/img200/5539/unchecked5rr.jpg Cost of service
http://img200.imageshack.us/img200/5539/unchecked5rr.jpg Support tools proved
http://img71.imageshack.us/img71/2890/checked4na.jpg Quality of service
Enter any other reasons below:
_______________________________________________
One page per question.
The SUMMARY page will take client's answers and compact them into something more readable. The answers are listed one after another (no limit per page as with the questions). Also, the answers are to be displayed in sentence format. For example.. if a client checks off 3 items from a 5 item list, those three items should be listed in a sentence separated by commas. Here is an example summarizing the first 2 pages above:
Summary of Answers
1. Do you have a clearly defined purpose for your plan?
A. YES. (description of plan previously entered by client)
2. What selection critera did you use to select your service provider?
A. Investment options provided, and quality of service. Also (other resaons, provided by client)
This demonstrates the type of control that I need over the information. I managed to get Excel to do all these things.. but, like I said it is too complex to edit/update without accidently screwing things up. So lastly and most importantly... the final version of the form needs to be easy to edit!
So... does it look like Access the right program for the job? Maybe there are other programs out there that I should be looking at (something by Adobe maybe?)
But if you think Access can handle the job then do you have any tips to help me along my way? I'm not looking for specific step-by step instructions to help me build this of course.. I will figure most of it out by trial and error. But are there some major things I should be looking out for? Like, do I have to set up a particular kind of database, or use a particular kind of template? Is inserting the client's name mid-sentence a particularly difficult thing to do?
Any help to get started on this is much appreciated. THANKS.
Thanks so much.

I have a continuous form (FormA) which shows records from TableA. There is a button on FormA which opens FormB. FormB allows a record to be added to TableA. On closing FormB, FormA should requery to show the most recent addition to TableA. This does not happen though, it is always a record behind, unless I close and reopen the form.
I'm using;
Forms![FormA].Requery
on my close button on FormB.
Any ideas? I have done a search but cant find a solution.
I am brand new to MS Access 2013 & VBA.There is a form that collects the data and writes it to a SQL database. The form is a certificate order form for a school. There are two tables that data is written to. dbo.CertificateMaster & dbo.CertificationModules. There is a relationship between the two tables. A person will request the certificate and included in the request are the subject(modules) that the person has studied.As part of the request the college/school needs a printed copy of the request.As the report opens I need it populate certain fields with their full names. To do this I use the following script
Private Sub Report_Load()
Dim strSQL1 As String, db As DAO.Database, rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim strSQL2 As String, db2 As DAO.Database, rs2 As DAO.Recordset
Dim strSQL3 As String, db3 As DAO.Database, rs3 As DAO.Recordset

I need to populate the various courses with their name which is extracted from dbo_tblCourses. However only the first course name is visible in the report. I have tried all sorts of different iterations with IF Then or Do While to get the names in the correct line of the report.
