View 6 Replies View RelatedInserting A Line Break On A Report
Sep 7, 2006I have text in a number of fields that I want to insert into a text box on a report. The size of the text box is large enough to accommodate, but I want each line to have a linefeed (or carriage return) before it.
The report is based on a query. I created a field in the query that consists of something like:...txtText1 & CHR (10) & txtText2 & CHR (10) txtText3 AS MYTEXT.
What I did was to set the control source on the text box to MYTEXT, hoping that there would be nice linefeeds in between the fields. Unfortunately, all I got were some funny-looking boxes.
What's interesting is that you CAN insert a linefeed into a memo field and that linefeed will display properly. I just don't know how to force one in there to separate lines of text.
Any ideas?

Find Records With A Line Break Using A Query
Apr 1, 2008Hello all,
I want to create a query that looks for a manual line break in a memo field. Is there a code or some way that I can do this? (i.e in a Memo field the user has entered some data, hit Ctrl-enter to get to a new line, entered more data on the new line. I want to find the records where this has occured)
Also, on a similar note, is there a way I can deny my users the option of doing a manual break (Ctrl-Enter) in a Control in a Form? (to prevent me needing to run this query in the future)
Please advise.
tia,
Angel
Reports :: Export From Access To RTF Format Adds Line Break
Mar 7, 2014I have set up an access application with a report being exported to rtf format. Would prefer word format if it is possible.
In the export document created there are line breaks on every row. This creates headache when the exported text is re-used in a word document.
is there any way how to have the export where the text is kept together without line breaks on every row?
Disappearing "line Break" In A Query Expression
Oct 25, 2005I have created an expression in a query to create an address label. My intention is to create one that looks like:
Name
Address
City, State Zipcode
To get the proper line breaks, I used the Alt + enter method. Though it is not visible when I look at it in SQL, the fields appear on separate lines.
Here is the actual expression used:
MailLabel: Nz([Title] & ' ') & [FName] & ' ' & [LName] & ' ' & [Extension] & '
' & [ADDRESS] & '
' & [CITY] & ', ' & [STATE] & ' ' & [Zipcode]
Problem: Sporadically, the database drops my line breaks and the expression becomes:
MailLabel: Nz([Title] & ' ') & [FName] & ' ' & [LName] & ' ' & [Extension] & ' ' & [ADDRESS] & ' ' & [CITY] & ', ' & [STATE] & ' ' & [Zipcode]
The resultant entry then just wraps around, depending on the size of the column.
I am trying to use this query to create labels in a Report. Any idea why the line break disappears? Any suggestion on how to better build the expression to maintain the proper line up?
Thanks
Modules & VBA :: How To Import Text File Line By Line
Nov 18, 2014I am having a little difficulty with my importing in Access. Every time I import my text file, the lines will be jumbled. I have been reading up and I found this recordset code that seems to be what I need:
Code:
Dim strLine As String
Dim intLineNum As Integer
Dim MyDB As DAO.Database
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
Open "C:TestTest.txt" For Input As #1
Set MyDB = CurrentDb
Set rst = MyDB.OpenRecordset("tblResults", dbOpenDynaset)
CurrentDb.Execute "DELETE * FROM tblResults", dbFailOnError 'Clear tblResults
[code]....
Basically, this code will extract data from the text file as long as it fulfills the Mid$ criteria. Here's where my problem comes. Each line in my text file is of different lengths and I have to capture the entire line.
I think using the Left$ function would work, but I don't know how to determine the character count such that the entire line of text would be inserted into the table.
Another difference between what I need and the code above is that, I am required to store each line into each row of my table, meaning
Line 1 is placed in Row 1 Column 1
Line 2 is placed in Row 2 Column 1
Line 3 is placed in Row 3 Column 1
.
.
.
Line X is placed in Row X Column 1.
Break Apart A Text Field
Apr 28, 2008I am getting data passed to me in one field that needs to be broken apart. The data is first name, middle name, last name and birthdate but its in one field that looks like this:

Is it possible to break apart this field into 4 separate fields?
Line Feeds In Text Box
Oct 23, 2004According to the books and examples I should get multiple lines of text in my text box with...
messageBody = "Line one stuff" & Chr(10) & "next line stuff"
Forms!NotifyEmails!Text2 = messageBody
...but instead I get funny symbols where the line feed should be. But it works sending it to email.
Anyone shed any light on this behaviour?
Last Line Of Text From A Memo Field
Nov 21, 2006Can anyone help....
I have a field on an Access db, this is a "Memo " type field which has many lines of text within it.
I need to run a query on this to get the last line of text within this field.
Aside from records where this memo field is filled in I also have records where the memo field is blank. So basically if the memo field is blank I want a blank field returned as well as fields with data.
I am using Access 2003 but also am running this on Access 2000 (not sure if there has been a change to function names)
This is seriously bugging me - can anyone put me out of my misery?
Append New Line To Text File
Oct 25, 2005I want to open a txt file through my access database and append a line to it. When I use the opentextfile method for appending but it always appends my new text line to the end of the last line. I want it to append the new text to a new line. I have tried object.skipline but this is not supported when appending?
This is what I get:
"oldline" "newline"
but I want:
"oldline"
"newline"
Here is my code
sub ConcatenateTxtFile ()
Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set f = fd.OpenTextFile(dpath, ForAppending)
'Need a line here to skip to next line
f.writeline ("newline")
End Sub
Text Box That Totals Line Items
Jan 25, 2008I have a database that prints out a contract of line items (as a report) for the home remodeling business.
I use a query to limit the line items which show the description and cost as a subreport.
The only way I could create a total of these line items was to enter an unbound text control, and put in the formula =sum([cost]) where cost being the field name. It works fine, but I need to but the result in a currency format - - two decimals and a $ sign. I sure would like it to do it at the query level, instead of at the report level (will make it more user friendly)
Any suggestions?
Multi-line Scrollable Text Boxes??
Jun 27, 2005Hi All,
I'm a noobie with Access, and on my form which displays Account information, I also want to display the multiple Addresses this account can have. I can't find any type of scrollable text box (something to look like a spreadsheet), and I know it's not a list box I need to use.
How do I create this and what is it called? I tried using a data grid but I dont think that is it either :confused:
Also, my scrolling text icon on the toolbox is greyed out, not sure why.
Please help!
Thanks,
Mike

Apr 15, 2014I am creating a database and need to produce a report that will form an itemised quotation.There can be up to 8 items on the quotation along with their associated costs to the customer. I am trying to make the "item" field dynamically expand if necessary when longer text is entered into it and then expand the corresponding "Totals" fields to match the new size.I have tried using the "Can Grow" property however for some reason the formatting does not cascade down to the fields below and the "Totals" fields remain the same size.
To try and explain better I have included a screen shot of the relevant part of the report and how it looks when printed. I should point out that the "QuotesQuote" box at the top of the screen is set to "Can Grow" and when that expands the boxes below automatically move to accommodate this.

Modules & VBA :: Writing To Text File With Line Feeds
Jun 22, 2015I have a function which takes a recordset and writes the contents to a text file. One of the fields in the recordset is a free format text field, the contents of which originate from a text box on a form. Occasionally, a user can hit the 'Enter' key to add a new line (carriage return) to the note within the text box.
The problem is, when the output text file is subsequently imported to Excel, the carriage returns within that text field serve to move the next piece of data to the next row (even though the CR is within the double-quote text-qualifier in the text file)I want line breaks within the text field to be retained within the cell.
One option would very simply be to replace the carriage returns with simple spaces in the write function. I could do that quite easily. However, I would prefer to retain whatever the user has entered into the text box, including line breaks, if at all possible?So if the user broke his free format 'note' into multiple lines (for whatever reason), it would similarly appear as multiple lines in the same cell (and in the same row / record) in the Excel worksheet.
I could replace the carriage return with some obscure character during the write, then switch it back during the Excel import, but that seems a little clunky (plus Murphy's Law dictates that no matter how obscure a character I choose, somebody, at some point, will genuinely use it, and it will get switched out. Which means I'd have to use a non-printing character?could I simply replace the carriage return with a line feed? (Or is it the other way around? I always get carriage returns and line feeds mixed up!)there's a simple way around this but I always get confused as to precisely which ASCII character the 'Enter' key produces when keying into a text box.

Queries :: Remove GROUP BY Line And Stick Semicolon At End Of Previous Line
Jun 25, 2013Here's the statement
Code:
sqlfinal = "SELECT Employees.ID, Employees.Name "
sqlfinal = sqlfinal & "FROM ((qryDeptVBA INNER JOIN qrySkillVBA ON qryDeptVBA.ID = qrySkillVBA.ID) "
sqlfinal = sqlfinal & "INNER JOIN Employees ON qryDeptVBA.ID = Employees.ID) "
sqlfinal = sqlfinal & "INNER JOIN qryAreaVBA ON Employees.ID = qryAreaVBA.EmpID "
sqlfinal = sqlfinal & "GROUP BY Employees.ID, Employees.Name;"
If i simply remove the GROUP BY line and stick the semicolon at the end of the previous line (.EmpID; ) it works just fine. How is adding a group by line causing an error?I tried adding another parenthes at the beginning ((( and ending the joins as EmpID); and that failed with the exact same error.
