Linking An Embedded Image From A Form To All Reports And Other Forms

Mar 4, 2005

I thought this would be pretty simple, but I cannot figure out how and wasn't able find the solution here or anyway.

I have a source form. (I can resort to having a Table with OLE Object if I must, but prefer not to.) On this source form I wish to include different things such as company logo. This will determine what logo shows up in all the reports, so all the reports will have an image linking back to this embedded image on the source form.

Pseudo-code Example:
frmSource contains imgLogo
rptSample contains an image whose
control source = Forms!frmSource!imgLogo

How can I do this or achieve the same effect in a more-or-less simple way?

TIA

Modules & VBA :: Access Email With Embedded Image Using Outlook

Sep 29, 2013

I have code that automatically send emails out from an Access Customer Contacts Database. I am using Access and Outlook 2007 but the code needs to work with later versions of Access and Outlook.

I have very poor knowledge of coding and usually manage to cobble something together from looking at other code on the net but don't understand most of it.

I have the following code which works perfectly except I want to be able to embed an image in the email body (not have the image as an attachment but actually show it in the body of the email).

Most of the code I have found around this topic is too complex for me to understand and utilise within the context of the code I have.

Ideally I want to take the image from an attachment field in a table returned by the "tblMailingList_Query".

Code:
Private Sub Command10_Click()
Dim MyDB As Database
Dim MyRS As Recordset
Dim objOutlook As Outlook.Application
Dim objOutlookMsg As Outlook.MailItem

[Code] .....

Modules & VBA :: Display Random Image From Folder (Not Embedded)

Jun 26, 2013

I'm working on a database for my holiday pictures. The pictures are organized in folders per trip/date/location.

When viewing the data of a particular trip, I want the form to display a random image from the respective folder (path stored in database).

I already found a function to count the files in the folder:

Code:
Function GetFileCount(folderspec As String) As Integer
' Returns a count of files in folderspec, or -1 if folder does not exist
Dim fso As Object
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
If fso.FolderExists(folderspec) Then
GetFileCount = fso.GetFolder(folderspec).Files.Count
Else
GetFileCount = -1
End If
End Function

to plug into a "randomizer":

Code:
lngFileCount = GetFileCount(strFOLDER)
Randomize
intRND = 1 + Int(lngFileCount * Rnd())
MsgBox intRND

The thing I can't find is how to reference this nth file (or even if there is a way to directly reference this file).

Is there, or do I have to use some kind of looping?

Forms :: Access Form With Tab Control Pages Each With Embedded Forms

Apr 13, 2013

I have an access form with tab control pages each with embedded forms.In one page I have a list of records as a datasheet form with the record identifier field configured as a hyperlink. When I click on this it passes its value to a form field in the form in the following tab page (works without the hyperlink but its a useful way of highlighting which field to click) which is a display/edit form of the details of the individual record. The Subroutine which does this sets the focus on this field it is passing the value to on the other form and the 'On Got Focus' event in that triggers the query that fills the editor form.

When I click back on the following tab to select another record to view/edit, the identifier value of the other record is passed to the other form but the data displayed in the rest form doesn't change. I understand this is because the field with the 'On Got Focus' never lost focus and so the query function was not called. To correct this I tried adding the same function call to the 'On Change' event however this does not work (the field is a text box set to 'locked' if that is relevant).I can get the form to do a new query properly if I click on a different field in the form before going back to the list tab or (as this is removing the focus allowing the On Got Focus to work again) if I click on a button to select a different record (which just takes me back to the list form).

Is there any way I can get this to work without having to manually remove the focus from the problem field? I have tried setting its On Got Focus event to move the focus to another field after the query function call however this prevents the Setfocus line in the code in the previous form from working. Here is a snippet of my code below.This code is for the list form and passes a value to the editing form:

Private Sub SalesID_Click()
Forms!Mainform.Requery
Forms!Mainform!Sales_Admin_Form!Sales_Admin_SalesI D.Value = SalesID.Value
Forms!Mainform!Sales_Admin_Form.SetFocus
Forms!Mainform!Sales_Admin_Form!Sales_Admin_SalesI D.SetFocus

[code]....

Linking Queries To Reports From Forms

Sep 8, 2004

I KNOW I'm making this harder than it needs to be.... I have a union query that pulls from two sales tables. I'm setting up a report where a person can select a manager name, start date, and end date for those union'd sales. I can do all this no problem in the query, but I want to be able to have this information selected on a form, instead of through popups, to bring up the report. How do I link the form information to the query? I can't get the report to show information it "read" from the form. Does that make sense?

Please help!

Image Linking To Folders...again!

Oct 5, 2005

Hello,

I am sorry to post this as I did do an extensive search through the forums. I am looking for a way to link images to a form from an image folder I have created outside my database. As I said, I did do a search and there is a lot of information listed. For some reason, I understand non of it. I am a bit of a novice as my personal database is quite simple.

Below is a screen grab from my database showing how I want to link my images; how I want them to look. This image is taken from an old incarnation of my database when I thought I was linking images but in fact was storing them on my computer. Like I said, I am sorry to bring this up but all of the help is a little over my head, of someone would not mind telling me VERY simple steps to achieve what I want to do, I would be very appreciative.

I want to be able to have the pictures change for each record.

Take care,
Greg

Click Image Hyperlink In Form To Load Image To Form

Jun 16, 2006

Hi guys,

I'm in desperate need of help and want to know if it is possible to load an image on a form once a hyper link is created.

For example, I have a form with a hyper link to an image created, currently, when you click on the hyperlink, it opens the picture in the browser, can you change it so that it loads teh image embedded into the form instead of loading it into a browser?

If so, how?

Thanks

Forms :: Image On A Form

Feb 10, 2014

I have been tasked to scan family pictures in such a way so they are available to older family members to identify people younger family members dont know. My solution is to scan each photo, name them 1.jpg, 2.jpg. about 4000 images. Store them in a directory (H:Family). I then want to create a form that will use the PK which is an auto number to pull that numbered picture into the form where someone can enter the other fields. I have fun with Access but this is well above my knowledge level!!

Forms :: Number Of Buttons Which Open Other Forms And Filter Results Using Embedded Macro

Apr 6, 2015

I have a bit of a problem with a database in Access 2013. On 1 of the forms, I have a number of buttons which open other forms and filter the results using an embedded macro. All has been well until a few days ago when error 2950 pop up box started appearing. After fiddling around for a while it all works OK (without actually changing anything) until next time the database is opened. I checked to make sure the location is "trusted" and all seems OK.

Forms :: Opening Image In Form And Pop Up In Window?

Jun 7, 2013

I am working on a form as a user interface. I have added an picture to the form and it will change, according to the selection in the combobox. It looks small, and not clear because of the size, and each image has different sizes. I would like to know if there is a a way that will allow me to click on it, and then it will open in another window so it is bigger with the right sizes. I was thinking that it could be something in the on click event.

Forms :: Displaying And Scaling Image From URL On A Form

Feb 20, 2015

I am using Access 2007.I have an application that keeps track of automotive parts and accessories.I have a table called "PARTS" that contains information about the various parts such as "part_name", "part_id", "price" etc.

I also have a website/shop that displays these various parts and also has an image of each part.I have managed to incorporate Microsoft Web Browser ActiveX functionality within the app so that when I scroll through the Parts table using the PartsForm, it automatically "reads" the URL from a field in the Parts table called "ImageURL" and displays it in the Microsoft Web Browser ActiveX browser window...this works great.

Forms :: Save Form / WebBrowser Control - Contents To Image

May 17, 2014

I have a form that contains one WebBrowser Control. In this WebBrowser control I interact with the Google Maps API to produce a map.

I would like to save the contents of the WebBrowser Control (Google Map) to an image file. I have not been able to figure out how to do this.

The WebBrowser Control takes up all the space in the form. Perhaps the contents of the entire Form can be exported to an Image?

Jun 21, 2015

I have been looking some information on changing image based on form combo box selection on form.

I manage to do case by case but i need it in a simple code because their will be many employees just to avoid adding case by case code for each one.

Imageholder.Picture = "C:UsersAMGDesktopam-001.jpg"
Case "AM-002"

Tables relationship
Employees_table [PK] to Contracts_table [FK] via field name {emp_ID}

Fields Name
Combo Box name on form Emp_IDCombo and row source is SELECT Employees_table.Emp_ID, Employees_table.EmployeeName, Employees_table.Emp_Pics FROM Employees_table;

Forms :: Embedding Image In Form Not Linked To Underlying Data

Jun 28, 2013

I have a form that I call the AdminForm. It allows the user to store administrative information about the business; business name, address, telephone number, etc. I also have as a part of the table that stores this information an Attachment Field where an image of their logo is stored in a field called, [Logo]. No problem here. The issue is that I want to use the [Logo] field elsewhere like in reports.

I've added an Attachment type control to the report and I've used DLookUp to use the image stored in the admin table, but it doesn't display on the report. There isn't any relationship between the admin table and any report so I can't join them unless I do something "unnatural" by adding a fictitious field to every record to tie it back to the key field in the admin table, (there is never more than one record in the admin table; I ensure that). That doesn't seem like the right way to accomplish this.

Forms :: Image On Form Displays Differently In Terminal Server Desktop?

Jun 6, 2013

why access 2007 is displaying an image oddly on a 2003/2008 terminal server farm. I am reasonably sure the problem is an access on terminal server issue because if you view the image in paint, image viewer, or word it displays fine on the terminal server. I don't think it is a resolution or color issue because once again it displays fine in paint, etc regardless of color depth.

The image below shows the difference in the png graphic. The image is transparent (the blue section being the background)

[URL]

As you can see the terminal server image is pixelated.

The form the image is sitting on has a blue gradiant that goes light to dark left to right. The form properties are below

The image properties are below:

Forms :: Embedded Macro - If True Go To Control

May 21, 2013

I'm trying to create a simple embedded macro for a checkbox control on a form [Company?]. The default value for this checkbox is No.

I want to write an If statement that basically says "If[Company?] = Yes, then GotoControl[CompanyorNameCombo], Else GotoControl[CustomerFN]

Although the checkbox field label and the control itself IS named [Company?] in the table and set as a Yes/No field, when I try to write the If statement I get an error that says "Microsoft Access cannot find the name 'Company?' you entered in the expression"

That's the name of the control and it is included in the table and shows in the field list.
