I am currently trying to export a query to PDF, but I want it to be in landscape. Is this possible? Here is the code that I have so far as well.
Code:
If Not IsNull(displayQuery) And displayQuery <> "" Then
DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputQuery, displayQuery, acFormatPDF, OutputString, True, "", 0, acExportQualityPrint
Else
MsgBox ("You Must First Select a Query to Export!")
End If
End Sub
must i install a printer in order for me to change my report to landscape?.. This doesn't sound right to me.. currently my report is set to portrait and when i go to page setup (menu option) i receive a msg saying i must install a printer first.. is this the only place where i can set my report to landscape?.. is there a property i've overlooked?.. thanks!
how do i format a chart into landscape view. My charts always format to portrait view, but my data is in the chart as landscape, so i loose information. I cant figure out a way to get access to make my chart in landscape view.
I have an existing report generated in Access 2007 that is currently in Portrait mode and I want to reformat the data so that it fits into Landscape mode.
The report consists of a main report and 2 subrports.
I have managed to do the majority of the reformatting to both the main and subreports except that I can't figure out how to change the layout of the actual data that is displayed.
What I'm talking about is the "slider" control (if this is what you call it) that is displayed on on the main report.
Is it possible to have part of a report set to portrait, but another part set to landscape? Like you can in Word by adding section breaks and setting the page layout separately for each section?
I have a "MainReport" comprised of 5 sub reports which are all portrait. Now I've been asked to add a 6th section and it will need to be landscape. I tried and tried to get it all on a portrait page but it's just too cramped.
I could keep them as two reports and have the command button simply run the second one at the same time. The thing is, that button "prints" the main report to a PDF file and emails it. And I don't want the new report to be in a separate PDF.
If you can't have separate sections, then is there any way to print separate Access reports into a single PDF? I'm using CutePDF but would be open to trying a different PDF printer if appropriate.
I have a landscape oriented report which is A4 size. When I select Landscape in print preview the result is cut off on the right. In the form's design mode I get a little green triangle on the top-left which tells me that the form is wider than the page size. Is this because I am using a default printer with a portrait setting?
I want to avoid having to change the default printer for each different form orientation. I am printing to a pdf printer (pdfCreator which doesn't appear to have a landscape output setting) while testing my design so as not to waste ink & paper.
I am making a database that will run the administrative part of a government run foreign teacher recruiting division.Running Office 2013 (and yes, it is overly bright), have used 2003,2007, 2010...I need to do mail merges, with lots of different sql's and templates. I have been using Albert Kallal's method and it works well.
However, some of my data is in THAI. And (I think) because this method exports to a .txt file first (.888) the data gets lost and shows as question marks.
Manual merge works fine.if I could export to xls in stead of .txt and use that as my merge source, that would work fine, but what part of the code would have to be changed.
Basically: - export to xls in stead of the .888 file - use the xls file as a datasource for the merge
In access i want to create a button that can export a form to a .pdf file i know this is possible true VBA, and i tried to google but all those vba codes do not work.
I'm trying to put together a few lines of VBA code to export a report called "Rework Label Report" to a specific network location in PDF Format, I have already achieved this level of code and it works fine (code below); however each report has a unique number in the database [ID] which I would like included in the title of the PDF when exported and saved?
Code so far:-
Private Sub Command20_Click() Dim stReport As String Dim stSubject As String
[Code]....
Me!Combo3 is a combobox on form which selects the number of the report to be viewed ,the user then sees a preview of their chosen report and then clicks Cmd20 to export to PDF, currently the file is named Rework Label Report when saved.
I'm trying to create a button that will export the filtered records on the screen to an Excel file.
I'm using strWhere as my where string and found this code in one of the posts from this forum, but unfortunately, I can't get it output only the filtered records. It outputs all records instead.
Dim db As dao.Database, qdf As QueryDef, mySQL As String Dim strWHERE As String Const strSQL = "SELECT * FROM [Action Register] "
I have a query that is filtered on a form (Forms!qRosterReport!SessionID) that I need to export to XML. I can export the query unfiltered but get an error with the filtered export. I am ok with Macros but very limited with VBA.
I have back-end on LINUX, is there any possibilities to automatic export data to *xml? e.g. every 5 min. Maybe some code in vba which can be connected to system timer?
Is there any way to 'Export' the selected column (user selected columns) as CSV. I have attached a mockup (screenshot) that gives a clear thought about the scenario. The 'User' will be able to select the 'Columns' for the export of 'tblInventory' and by clicking 'Export as CSV' button will export the 'Selected' columns as CSV.
A Inputbox will shows up and then ask for a Special date.
I have a table which has for one ID always a Special date.
Many ID can have the same Special date. So i want to Export all with the same Special date.
I've created the following code. When i enter the date, it doesn't Export anything.
Code: Dim xlApp As Object 'Excel.Application Dim xlBook As Object 'Excel.Workbook Dim xlSheet As Object 'Excel.Worksheet Dim rst As DAO.Recordset, Rechnungsdatum_Finanzamt As Long, tmpStr As String
So I had this code working and then I cleaned it up a little and it no longer works. It should export data from a created query using criteria selected by the user on a form and put it into an excel file that exists. I get no errors but it does not export anymore. After pouring over it for a while checking for mistakes with my form control references and variables I have yet to find anything. I did change my form name and edited the code accordingly after I already had it working, and changed a few form settings but changing them back did not fix the issue. I am not very experienced and stumped since I am not getting error messages.
Code:
'First set variables for the SQL string and CreateQueryDef command Dim strExport As String Dim qdf As dao.QueryDef 'Then define the SQL to be exported (Static Response Info by ItemID)
Can you tell me if it is possible to create a main report with a Portrait view and then add a sub report to the main report and print this out in landscape mode. If you can please can you advise on the best way to do this. Thanks PWF
I have a button on a access database form that runs a query and exports the data to an excel sheet that remains open. I am ok with this. What I would like to do now is format the sheet and then save it as a file name that is the same as the query name but adding the date at the end. Here is what I have so far:
Private Sub Command1_Click() On Error GoTo Err_Command1_Click Dim stDocName As String stDocName = "Qry_SentForProcessing" DoCmd.OpenQuery stDocName, acNormal, acEdit DoCmd.RunSavedImportExport "Export-Qry_SentForProcessing"
[code]....
I just want to add the code to this button. Or do I need to write a function as a module, then call the function after the export is run.
I have a main form with two subforms. I'm trying to get my code so that it allows me to put 1 subform on one tab and the other spreadsheet on the other tab.Heres my code:
Code:
Option Compare Database Public Function Send2Excel(frm As Form, Optional strSheetName As String) ' frm is the name of the form you want to send to Excel ' strSheetName is the name of the sheet you want to name it to
[code]...
It won't let me pass more than one subform when I call Send2Excel, so I have to list it twice, which opens two excel files.
I am writing some vba code in mymacros.mdb to try and export a table from otherdb to excel. I do this becuase there is a new copy of otherdb created on a daily basis.
I have tried using docmd.output and docmd.transferspreadsheet to achieve this but dont know how to specify that the table I am exporting is in the otherdb.mdb file.
Is there a command that I can use to export a spreadsheet to Excel...
I could use docmd.transferspreadsheet
however that would also mean i would need an input window where users would need to manually put in the location they wish to save to...
Instead, could i not get a "SaveAs" command window or a file browser at least for them to search that way? Alternatively, If it was possible to use VBA to pop up the "Export - Excel Spreadsheet" window, that would be just as good.
I have a query tool that allows users to create their own custom queries. Basically, it's a form that allows the user to check boxes for the fields they want to see. The code behind it simply hides the fields in the query for which the user has not checked the box. That works very well.
My problem is I would like to have a command button that will export the query to excel. The OutputTo and TransferSpreadsheet commands will just export the whole query into excel regardless of whether or not the field is checked. I'm looking for a way to only export the columns the user has checked. Is this possible, and if not is there a workaround that would do something similar?
I want to export different objects (i.e. modules, reports,tables, queries...) from another ms access application. How can I list the objects so I can pick from them and then import them. I know ms access has a wizard and I am looking to do the same but a little different because I have an application that I want to filter my objects by a criteria.
