I have a report that is 1 line per record and by default there is line spacing between records.
I am wondering if there is anyway to eliminate the line spacing between records? I can't find any way to do it, is it possible?
I am very experienced in Word and Excel but completely new to Access.
I have constructed an Access database containing a list of volunteers and the times at which they have volunteered.
The Reports I have written are very basic but function as intended. http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif
:)
However the lines of data on the Report print outs are spaced too widely. http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/images/smilies/confused.gif
:confused:
How can I specify the line spacing?
I can't find anything in "access reports 2010" which allows me to adjust the line spacing. The default spacing is "huge", yet line spacing is set at 0cm.
Quick note: line spacing is the distance between detail lines.
I'm creating a query which pulls together the numerical values of 32 separate fields. Each field has the potential to have a value in it ranging between 1 and 9, but most fields will be blank.
I want to prefix the value (if the value is not null) with a 2 or 3 character-long code relating to the field name.I then want to combine them all together in a query so I can easily copy and paste the output to a spreadsheet.Here is what I have so far, with just 9 of the field names, and it's already looking a bit clunky.
Code:
IIf(IsNull([zam_adm]),"","ADM") & [zam_adm] & " " &
IIf(IsNull([zam_cts]),"","CTS") & [zam_cts] & " " &
IIf(IsNull([zam_crs]),"","CRS") & [zam_crs]& " " &
IIf(IsNull([zam_IPB]),"","IPB") & [zam_IPB]& " " &
IIf(IsNull([zam_opr]),"","OPR") & [zam_opr]& " " &
IIf(IsNull([zam_owl]),"","OWL") & [zam_owl]& " " &
IIf(IsNull([zam_pmi]),"","PMI") & [zam_pmi]& " " &
IIf(IsNull([zam_wl]),"","WL") & [zam_wl]& " " &
IIf(IsNull([zam_sgt]),"","SGT") & [zam_sgt]
The output, unfortunately, is putting spaces between empty fields and I'm not sure how to prevent this in the syntax?
I have a sub-report and the last row is highlight, however, there seems to be extra spacing after the last row. I removed all report/page header/footer so all what's left is the Detail section but I still have this white space after the last row.

View 3 Replies View RelatedHello 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.

Hi,
This is a toughie (i think so anyway!). I'll attempt to explain!!!
I start with a CONTINUOUS form in my DB that shows all readings for a single given customer's connections. E.g. Customer A has 5 connections and each connection has say 3 readings. Thus this query which uses joins between the Customers, Connections, and Readings tables, would return a list of all readings for each connection, so in the above example: 1*5*3 = 15 records.
Not too tricky so far, but then what I want is for each connection to have just one line showing the latest reading (easily achieved by use of SQL Aggregate Max function on the date field coming from the readings table) TOGETHER WITH the last-but-one (next most recent) reading. So back to the example taking Customer A's connection 1, the row would be as follows:
Cust Conn CurReading PrevReading
A 1 750 500
Where the CurReading value (750) comes from a different record than PrevReading (500).
I've tried all sorts of ways (subqueries etc.) to achieve this without success. The main problem being that any sub query would require parameters from the current record's fields, which seems not to be possible. Can anyone help or is this simply not possible in MSAccess Forms. If it isn't possible anyone have any suggestions as to an alternative way?
Thanks
Darren
I have to print address labels. 10 x 3.8 cm labels 2 per row 14 per page on an A4 paper. Pretty straightforward one should say. But no. I play around with the margins, column heights and widths, row and column spacing page size wasting time. Is there a hidden and not documented relationship between those elements? For example how is the column height and row spacing linked together? How is this normally done in a professional way?
View 3 Replies View RelatedHere'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.
I have a main form with 3 sub forms. The main form is tied to a table called QUOTES_MASTER. The first sub form is tied to a table called QUOTE_ LINE_ ITEMS_DIRTGLUE. It calculates the subtotal when selecting items. The relationship is one-to-many linked on QUOTE_ID.
The second sub form adds up total of all line items and is not tied to a table.The third sub form adds ESTIMATED FREIGHT to the PRODUCT TOTAL and is not tied to a table. how to get the values from the line items form inserted into the QUOTE_LINE_ITEMS_DIRTGLUE table as they are added.
I also want to insert the total value from ESTIMATED DELIVERED into the LINE_TOTALS field in the table QUOTES_MASTER.I tried this code on the product total sub form but it doesn't do anything and there are no errors:
Private Sub PROD_SUB_AfterUpdate()
DoCmd.RunSQL "UPDATE QUOTE_LINE_ITEMS_DIRTGLUE SET QUOTE_LINE_ITEMS_DIRTGLUE.SUBTOTAL = Me.PROD_SUB WHERE QUOTES_MASTER.QUOTE_ID = " & Me.QUOTE_ID
I have a module which reads a CSV transaction file line by line and adds the correct transactions to an access table and places the wrong ones in a logfile.Now some transactions are rejected twice there is even one rejected six times. Whereas one wrong transaction is processed only once. I am certainly overlooking something obvious in the logic but what. Here is the relevant code.
Code:
Function ImportCSVForConfederation(inputCSV, ORG)
Dim TNO As Integer, TACT As Integer, TABLE As String, TLINE As String, I As Integer, J As Integer, K As Integer
Dim FLD1 As String, FLD2 As String, FLD3 As String, FLD4 As String, LogFile As String, LogPath As String

In Access 2013 I have a query that join two tables, Conduminium Owners to their possetions (fractions of conduminium).
Owners.OwnOwners.Vote SumOfTblFracPerc
O; P................................No............... .9,54
F....................................Yes.......... ......5,48
L; Q................................Yes.............. ..7,13
M; U...............................Yes............... .7,86
H...................................Yes........... .....5,71
D; R...............................Abstention......7, 78
etc...
This query is grouping and summing, and I want put the results in a form and see it grouping the fractions in lines like this:
"These were the votes of the owners of fractions:
O;P, voted No = 9,54
F, L;Q, M;U, H, G;W, C, N, I, voted Yes = 37,72
D; R - voted Abstention = 7,78
How can I do it?
I'm trying to have users enter multiple IDs from a table into a text box separated by newline chars, and then (once they press a button) have some sort of macro or code read each line and pull a report I've created based on the ID. Is that possible?
Example:
Table
ID
DataPoint1
DataPoint 2
DataPoint 3
1
d1
d4
d7
2
d2
d5
d8
3
d3
d6
d9
Text Box (User will enter values and hit OK)
2
3
Report
ID: 2
DataPoint 1: d2
DataPoint 2: d5
DataPoint 3: d8
-------Page Break------------
ID: 3
DataPoint 1: d3
DataPoint 2: d6
DataPoint 3: d9
I 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.
I can change multiple things on a line graph with VBA.
Me.Graph47.chartType = GraphType ' take 65 for line
with me.graph47
.SeriesCollection(1).border.Color = vbblue ' change the line color
.SeriesCollection(1).border.Weight = LineWeight ' change the line weight to for example 3
.SeriesCollection(2).MarkerSize = MarkerWeight ' Change the marker weight, for example 4
.SeriesCollection(2).MarkerBackgroundColor = vbblue ' Change the marker color,
.SeriesCollection(2).axisgroup = 2 ' put this series on the secondary axis
end with
SeriesColection(1) is line with markers. This is correct.But now I want the seriescollection(2) without line, so only the markers. I cheched the MSDN site from Microsoft. The Excel trick with the macro does not work for me.how to hide the line with VBA for only SeriesCollection(2) in Access?
I have the following code to display what choice I make on a drop down box:

Case 1
Me.lstPC.RowSource = "SELECT DISTINCTROW tblHardware.HardwareID, tblHardware.Name, tblHardware.Assignment, tblHardware.Location, tblHardware.Description FROM tblHardware WHERE (((tblHardware.Location) Like '*') And ((tblHardware.Type) = 'PC')) ORDER BY tblHardware.Name, tblHardware.Assignment, tblHardware.Location, tblHardware.Description;"
Case 2
Me.lstPC.RowSource = "SELECT DISTINCTROW tblHardware.HardwareID, tblHardware.Name, tblHardware.Assignment, tblHardware.Location, tblHardware.Description FROM tblHardware WHERE (((tblHardware.Location) Like 'FTM*') And ((tblHardware.Type) = 'PC')) ORDER BY tblHardware.Name, tblHardware.Assignment, tblHardware.Location, tblHardware.Description;"
Case 3
Me.lstPC.RowSource = "SELECT DISTINCTROW tblHardware.HardwareID, tblHardware.Name, tblHardware.Assignment, tblHardware.Location, tblHardware.Description FROM tblHardware WHERE (((tblHardware.Location) Like 'CS*') And ((tblHardware.Type) = 'PC')) ORDER BY tblHardware.Name, tblHardware.Assignment, tblHardware.Location, tblHardware.Description;"
Case 4
Me![lstPC].RowSource = "SELECT DISTINCTROW tblHardware.HardwareID, tblHardware.Name, tblHardware.Assignment, tblHardware.Location, tblHardware.Description FROM tblHardware WHERE (((tblHardware.Location) Like 'PQL*') And ((tblHardware.Type) = 'PC')) ORDER BY tblHardware.Name, tblHardware.Assignment, tblHardware.Location, tblHardware.Description;"
Case 5
Me![lstPC].RowSource = "SELECT DISTINCTROW tblHardware.HardwareID, tblHardware.Name, tblHardware.Assignment, tblHardware.Location, tblHardware.Description FROM tblHardware WHERE (((tblHardware.Location) Like 'Savage*') And ((tblHardware.Type) = 'PC')) ORDER BY tblHardware.Name, tblHardware.Assignment, tblHardware.Location, tblHardware.Description;"
Case 6
Me![lstPC].RowSource = "SELECT DISTINCTROW tblHardware.HardwareID, tblHardware.Name, tblHardware.Assignment, tblHardware.Location, tblHardware.Description FROM tblHardware WHERE (((tblHardware.Location) Like 'Retail*') And ((tblHardware.Type) = 'PC')) ORDER BY tblHardware.Name, tblHardware.Assignment, tblHardware.Location, tblHardware.Description;"
End Select
End Sub
What I need to know is how to make a statement that you can put in where you want it to display all but take out certain parts of it. Example: On "Case 3" it displays everything starting with "CS*" I want it to not display certain items like "Retail*", & "FTM*" & "PQL*" & "Savage*"
Any help for this statement would be great thanks

We have a database and a query that is run that creates a table for a webpage.
The webpage (created in FrontPage) displays the info we need, but what we have 1 field that we would like to have display in a certain way. What we would like is, instead of having this 1 field string all the words out in a row.
For example:
word 1 word 2 word 3
Is there something we could either do in the query or within the webpage, that will force each word to a new line within it's table cell on the webpage
So would look something like this.
word1
word2
word3
it makes it easier to read on the webpage.
Hoping someone can help!:(
I have a table in access which holds interest rates details, and a query that displays the latest interest rate entered into the table (on the last line) by using the Last option in the Totals field.
The problem is that when I enter any new data into the table the query doesn't see this and continues to display the data which is now on the second to last line. The query for some reason just doesnt seem to notice the new last line.
Is there a solution to this so that it shows the new last line?
Thanks is advance!
Is there a way to reformat so that the line that is the next line to be entered is at the top instead of the bottom >> I hope that is clear
