When the user clicks on say; the customer ID dropdown menu, i want the label text on the right of it to get darker (make it more visible). How can i do this?
I have created a report to display a bill of materials (boms). The report works as I have designed. I have also figured out how to filter the report using the docmd.openreport vbasic call with filters. This works fine. I use a form to select the filtering I need in the form of 2 Listboxes populated from tables. The form opens, the report generates and displays in preview mode. What I cannot do is the change the title text (Text Label on the report Header). I would like to use the selected items in the listboxes as sources of text for these controls on the report so I can use the report over and over for different boms. ANy help would be greatly appreciated! Vbasic I hope!
I have a report that prints labels (similar to avery labels) which pulls data from a query. These labels are all unique and vary in length. Due to the length variance, I want the font size to get smaller for labels with more characters. I want the text to go down to another line when necessary.
In my report under the OnPage Event Procedure I wrote this:
Private Sub Report_Page() If Len(Text2) > 20 Then Text2.FontSize = 8 If Len(Text2) > 10 And Len(Text2) < 21 Then Text2.FontSize = 10 If Len(Text2) < 11 Then Text2.FontSize = 14 End Sub
This works to some degree but the problem is that once there is a longer label, all of the proceeding labels are resized & the longer label that should have been resized was not.
Is there another place I should be writing this code? I looked under events for the textbox but there doesn't seem to be anything that would work since none of them would trigger when printing labels
My student is doing a project on question paper generation in which he selects questions from each lesson needed and also some of these questions have images associated with them. So, if these questions are selected, the image control in the report displays it.
If there is no image, the space for the control is left in tact. I tried changing the visible property for the image control in the Detail_Format event procedure. But this code is not reached at all and the space is still left. I am not storing the image directly in the field but its path in a text field.
I want that the space occupied by the image control removed. I tried the suppression thing but obviously it did not work.
I have a combobox on my form called TypeOfBusiness, with fields including Corporation, Education, Industry, Non-Profit. In order to make a second combobox called IndustryClassification appear when Industry is selected from the TypeOfBusiness combobox, I have used the following code:
Code: Private Sub Form_Current() If Me.TypeOfBusiness = "Industry" Then Me.IndustryClassification.Visible = True Else Me.IndustryClassification.Visible = False
[Code] .....
It works just fine. However, when a user selects both, say, Industry and Education, the IndustryClassification combobox will not appear. What code I can use to ensure the IndustryClassification box will appear regardless if another box is checked in addition to Industry? I am wondering if it has to do with the Column attribute.
I have a Main Form with a Sub-Form, the sub-form is base off a query. on the sub-form i have 8 controls, one of them is "Status' and "Process" and "Review" My Main Form have a Refresh command that refreshes the data in the sub-form.
What i am trying to do is make the "Process" Control only visible is "Status" is a certain status and "Review" visible if "Status" is something else. what i have done works correctly On Open. I run into and issue on the refresh command. I get Run-time error '2165' "You can't hide a control that has the focus"
Code: If Forms!Main_Form.[Name subform]!Status = "Ready" Then Forms!Main_Form.[Name subform]!Process.Visible = True Forms!Main_Form.[Name subform]!Review.Visible = False ElseIf Forms!Main_Form.[Name subform]!Status = "Reviewing" Then Forms!Main_Form.[Name subform]!Review.Visible = True Forms!Main_Form.[Name subform]!Process.Visible = False End If
I have done similar with a main form and making sub-form visible or not based on a control on a main form and that has worked perfectly. I am not sure how the control is getting focus and cause the error.
I have a form with four subforms set up in a tabs on the form. In the subforms I have a copuple of command buttons which enable/make visible fields when they are clicked (see previous posts but for eg) - if a height and a weight are added in two separate boxes a calculation is done and then a command button pressed to make visible the (label) which shows the mass index the patient falls into. My problem is that the label is then retained so if I click out of the form and re-enter with a new patient then the height and weight boxes are clear but the label from the previous patient remains.
I tried to put the code Private Sub Form_Load() If PtWeight = Null And PtHeight = Null And Text60 = Null Then Label106.Visible = False Label101.Visible = False Label177.Visible = False Label122.Visible = False Label123.Visible = False End If End Sub in both the open and on load event of the main form (not the subform) but it doesn't help. Any ideas?
(When should code be put on the main form and when on the subform?)
I have a field in my database that list the number of personnel folders a person has, I would like to print labels for each folder for that person. For example, if a person has 4 folders I would like to print 4 of the same label at once by clicking the command button I have set up to print the label. The default is set to 1 label but I need the number of labels to change according to the number of folders listed. Can this be done and if so how?I will be using Avery 4031-20 labels
Have an address list with over 600 names, and I need to create mailing labels.
Have First Name, Last Name fields, with city, state zip. BUT...
There is also a field called SPOUSE. This field is NOT always populated.
I need a query that I'll use to create the mailing labels that will;
Have the FIRST NAME SPOUSE NAME LAST NAME
If the SPOUSE field is blank, I need the query to filter that out, so that the address lable will only show First Name and Last Name, without a blank space in between.
Also need the query to put the '&' sign in IF there is a spouse.
Uh, hi. I'm new to using access, and I'm wondering if its possible to display an autonumber at the top of a form in a label box. For example, if I had a field set to autonumber and was ading a new record to the database, could I display the autonumber field on the actual form?
Does anyone know of an example (code or DB) where someone used labels as buttons? The labels should have special effects when mouse overed, clicked, etc. Also, it should have code that resets button state and checks button state. Any help would be great!!!
Is it possible to change the format of the mailing labels once the report has been created? I have one that has 24 labels on it, but I need for it to have 30. Also I can't remember how I created it in the first place. What steps do I need to go through to make a new report?
creating mailing labels starting with an Excel Workbook imported into Access. When I get to the point of previewing the labels, there seem to be maybe 10 blank labels. I don't have a clue how this could happen but I obviously don't want to waste the ten or so labels (out of about 90 total). setting the print area and removing empty Worksheets, but nothing works.
I have created a report for labels using the Label Wizard, and found the code on the MS KB about skipping the labels that have already been used, and printing on the next one along.
Page on MS KB (http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=299024)
When I try using this code in Access 2003 however, it seems to go into some sort of loop, and produces 100+ pages for the report when I try and skip 1 label for example. Can anyone help me get this working for 2003?
Here's my module code, same as on the site above:

I have a report that is broken down by regions. Each Region could have multiple entries for each. I would like to have a Summary at the bottom that counts each Region on the report and gives a total for the report. What I am getting is it counts each time there is an entry for the region. I assume since I have the Region as a Header it still thinks it is listing it multiple times. Any help???
before i pull out any more of my hair, I am making a pie chart and the "Best Fit" function in access charts for form flat out doesnt work. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get these labels from bunching up?
I have large sets of data that has labels on them. For example "25.56 lbs". I just want the raw numbers. Can someone help with what to type in the update to field of an update query to just keep the numbers? Thanks
I'm in the middle of doing a huge survey at work. The end resut will be a report which reflects the survey answers as graphs.
The graph part I have down. There will be one graph for each question. Within each graph are three groupings: Classified, Management, Certificated. Within the groupings you will see at least three bars where each bar represents a grouping of answers.
Example: the classified grouping may have 2 bars. One bar represents 16 classified people who said "Agree" to question 11 and the other bar represents 5 classified people who said "Disagree" to question 11.
...ok, so now I have all that, but I have to have data labels on the graph. I can do that, I know where to click, but unfortunately it comes up as the actual number of people who responded this particular way (agree, disagree, etc.) and I need the data label to show up as a percentage.
Where do I make the change so that it shows the percentage of 16 classified out of 21 who said "Agree"?
How do I get my labels and controls to line up vertically? If I click on align and up or down, they all get moved on top of each other with no spaces inbetween them. I want an equal amount of space inbetween them. How do I do this?
I have a form with a few labels that for some reason, very often will have a strange looking line above them after I am done clicking on them. I can't seem to find out why this happens. It happens on every label on this particular form.
Please take a look at the attachment for a screenshot.
I'd appreciate any advice you may have on why this happens and how to fix it.
We use an Access database to review multiple banking regulations on a sample of loans each month. I have reports set up to show the findings of different requirements. Each field is populated with a "Yes" "No" "N/A" or is left blank depending on the loan characteristics.
My queries pull regulatory errors if any of the fields = "No" and the reports show all regulatory requirements for that loan. For example, if the loan has real estate as collateral and no flood determination was ran prior to loan closing, they would select "No" from the combobox and it populates the field. All questions dealing with the flood laws populate on the report.
[U]If I want to show ONLY the fields that say "No" with the corresponding label, how do I get all fields that say "Yes" "N/A" or are blank to disappear, the corresponding lable to disappear, and the data to "shrink up" so there is not a lot of blank space?
I am looking to set up a database where I have a table of records that correspond labels to product numbers. The product numbers may have anywhere from 1 to 30 labels that correspond to them, and I want the user to have a form where they search by a product number and then the labels that correspond to that product number are printed out on an Avery label.
Here is how the main data table will look: (everything is simply arbitrary to illustrate)
For example: If I type in "1111" into the form - the labels that print would be AA, AB, AC, AD, & AE
I know how to set up labels to print using forms, but the only way I can think of this working is by looking up the product number in the table, then copying the row of labels into another table (let's call it "labels to print") and pasting them in a column, then printing to the labels, and clearing the "labels to print" table for the next time.
Is this the correct route to go? If so, how do I go about looking up the product number in the main table and copy them to the "labels to print table".
