I have created a report in MS Access. When I choose the option to Publish to MS Word, I loose all of the background colors. Is this correct or am I doing something wrong? Is there a way to maintain all of the Format features when I publish?
View RepliesCurrently, I have a button on my form that users can click on to generate a report based on the info from the form. Once the report has opened, they publish the form with MS Word for further edit if needed.
How do I set up the button so that it opens the report then automatically publishes the report with MS Word?
I produce a report from a query. One of the fields combines in a calculated field based on numerous other fields, a sentence that may be up to five printed lines of text. While it views correctly in the Report's Preview screen, it is less than perfect when I send it to a Word 2002 document using the Office Links/Publish with Word tool. Despite producing the same font face and size and having the same left/right margins, it truncates unpredictably and inserts a hard-return. It will take a five-row report field and produce a five-row Rich Text Format field...but often with a few lost words at the end of the final row. Some rows have an inch of unused space at the end of them in the RTF file...wasted space.
Any suggestions as to cause?
Trying to make this code work, don't know how to filter as it prints identical all reports.

I am considering the possibility of revamping the employee onboarding & off-boarding process for our organisation to make it more efficient.
Current State: We use InfoPath forms in SharePoint Servers 2010 to handle onboarding/employee change/off-boarding requests submitted by the related department. With the Workflow process, the respective manager will receive email to approve the requested intake form and once it is done, the form will be assigned to someone in the business support team for processing. Once all the required logistics are completed, we shall enter the new hire's profiles into our MS Access employee database through an employee input form.
It works well although it seems like a duplication of work since the support team has to manually input the employee information, which is already captured on the InfoPath form, into the Access database. We also need to align the field options (such as data on drop down lists) in the InfoPath form with similar field on the input form in the database whenever there are new field added or changes made on existing fields.
Future State: I wonder if there is a way in Access to set up a similar request/approval process so that we can get rid of the InfoPath form when the requester can input the employee information on a onboarding intake form in Access with data stored in a temporary table. After the request is approved and subsequently completed by the business support team, we can say, click a button and transfer the employee data from the temporary table to the employee table. Of course, some sort of validation rules should apply before the transfer takes place to ensure data integrity.
I think the major challenges would be to build an approval process within Access to provide similar notification features as from InfoPath.
I know this might be a wild thinking but just want to look for possible options to save manual work and improve the efficiency of our process.
I am trying to run a query and display the results in a report (the report side of it is childs play and not a problem). The problem I am having is that I have a search form which should allow the user to search any one of 6 fields (text boxes) or a combination of each.
If the user enters something into a field then that search criteria must match. I wanted to have it so if all fields are left blank then it will show all entries in the database (but it isn't, it shows a blank report). I also wanted it to allow partial completion of boxes.
So for instance if I have 5 customers (Jones, Jonson, Jonus, jimjonkins, Janis) and I type "Jon" into the name field then I would like it to show the first 4 records as they all contain "jon" somewhere in their name but its not, its only allowing exact matches.
I currently have '[forms]![Search_Customer]![Search_Name]'.
I have a word 2010 reports that is linked to an access 2010 form. SQL is used to populate the report with some of the fields from the form. Is it possible to create a combo-box with two selections (Mike, Paul) in it. And then have two other fields populate based on the selection in that combo-box? For example, if Mike is selected then an Address: and Phone Number: fields are filled in with his information. And if Paul is selected his information fills in.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to add the information from a form and subforms to a report. This would be a medication mar sheet and needs to be in the format of the attached word document. I'm happy to do it in a report and change the formatting if that will work better. The personal info needs to go at the top and the medication needs to be listed on each sheet.
The form is called FrmMarSheet. It basically needs the info from that like the "sample mar sheet.doc". I can only get one medication per page to work at the moment.
I see Access has security features, such as creating group accounts with varying levels of permissions....This all works great for my computer, as I want an administrator and read-only user accounts. The problem is that these setting seem only to apply to my machine and are not present when the database is accessed from another terminal. Is there any way to attach these security measures to the database itself as opposed to just the local settings on my machine? Thanks.
