rsImage.Fields("FileData").SaveToFile "C:UsersmyNameDesktop"

So, the definition of the path works (strPath)
the creation of the path wirks (MkDir)

Saving attachments to shared drive.
I have a order database and i receive invoices from suppliers and there are different users updating the records. I want to save the invoices in shared folder so all of the users can view/access the invoices.
So I have this relatively simple problem: I need to create a button that once clicked will open the Save As dialog box and allow the user to save a copy of the current database where he wishes. The filename should contain todays date in DDMM format along with some pre-set text e.g. DDMM PresetText.
I am using Access 2010.
I have a few selected reports on an Access 2007 database that users can run. Is there a way for users to view the report, save as a PDF and automatically save a copy to a shared drive by modules/vba coding as an On Click event procedure?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI currently have a code set up which sends an attachment from a drive on my computer to all the email addresses in a certain query. I would like to change the code so that I can add a button that will allow me to send an email with a specific attachment depending on their individual code in a table, e.g each person will receive a specific attachment. At the moment, the attachments are saved with the same file name as the person's specific code.The code I am currently using is:
Private Sub Command9_Click()

I'm working on a database for work that email's the current record after the form is completed. I have a attachment field in the table called Photo and some record's have a photo attached and other's don't. The code below works great with records that have a photo attached, but I get a path not found if I try to email a record that does not have a photo. I know that I need to put some form of code to check the photo field for a attachment, but I'm having a brain fade as to just what the code is.

Private Sub eMail_Report_Click()
Dim oFilesys, oTxtStream As Object
Dim txtHTML As String

First, I'm developing both the Front End and Back End in Access 2007, and I intend to distribute the application using the Access Run Time. The powers that be will not let me use SQL Server.
The database is required to house attachments. Initially, I had created a separate back end database to store the attachments, but the file would quickly grow beyond the 2GB limit - roughly within 3 weeks. Instead, I decided to save the "attachments" in folders (named after the parent records PK ID) on the network. Using VBA, I would populate a list, based on the parent record, from which the user could select the file, do what needs to be done, then save it.
Unforunately, we're running into data security issues - all of the attachments will have private personal information - SSNs, Loan Numbers, Account Numbers etc., so they need to be stored in a location that's not universally accessible. All of the users have different permissions based on their department, acting as a very basic security level (i.e., Department 1 users will not be able to view any parent records associted with departments 2 or 3).
So I need a way for my back end to take a file located in a separate directory not normally available to the Front End User, then move that file (or save a copy that will be overwritten when re-attached to the record) to a location that IS accessible to my Front End User.
Can I create/use modules stored on the back end?
My first thought is to let the back end store the record in a temporary attachment table that is deleted when the user is done with it, but I've noticed that Access has trouble reclaiming the space when the attachment is ultimately deleted once the user is done using it, and I'll run into my 2GB limit again.
Alternatively, I could create a new .accdb file each time the record's attachments need to be accessed, and then delete that database once it's done and the attachments are returned to the secure location, solving my limit problems.
I have a Database with a field that holds several attachments. I want to make a command button for a form that will open the attachment window that pops up when you double click on the attachment in the table. attach_fig7(1).gif.. I'd like the above window to open when I click the command button.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am making a new database. And I want to confirm that I can do all the following in Access 2007 and how is best to do it.
1) A form where I can define:a unique Email Number starting at 1.
a directory eg "C:UsersPaulDesktop101 - Brick House"
an email address.
a Recipient Name
a Category for the email. Choosing either "Working" or "Complete". This would be part of the email subject.
2) a button which onclick lists all the files in the defined directory to a box on the form.
3) a button which onclick exports a report containing the list of files to PDF. Then attaches a zip of these files and the PDF report to an email in Outlook for revision before sending.
4)In Outlook the subject would be:
"The Directory Name" - "The Category" - "The Email Number"
"101 - Brick House - Working - Email 1"
5)In Outlook the body would simply be the subject of the email followed by the filenames of the 2 attached files, ie the PDF report and the zip.
I am working on a database that will notify technicians if they have orders that have been placed on back order. The technician can enter two kinds of orders, one for a specific job and one to replenish the stock in his truck. My manager has asked that I create separate reports for each kind of order and e-mail them to the technician. Is there a way to program Access to send an e-mail with two separate attachments?
I would also like the e-mail to send without the user needing to click the Send button. Is that possible? The database will be sending twenty plus e-mails each time the button is pressed, and I would like to avoid needing the user to click the Send button that many times.
i want to crate a continuous form where i can add a button to export all of the attachments in that current record, i can create a folder and name it same as the selected record but how I can export all of the attachments in that record

strUserName = Environ("UserName")

I'm trying to store files on a linked SQL Server table, much the way I would using the Attachment data type in Access. (I couldn't use the Attachment data type, though, due to size restrictions - we're storing about a gig a week.)
Almost everyone says to store the attachments on a file system and save the location - I can't do that because of varying permissions. The files HAVE to be stored in the SQL Server table for security reasons.
So how do I do it? I've tried converting the files to binary and updating the recordset that way, but it always comes back as null. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
Code:
Public Function Test(strFile As String) As Boolean
Dim rsAtts As dao.Recordset
Dim ifilenum As Double
Dim btAR() As Byte
Set db = CurrentDb

Currently, I'm taking my unread emails, storing them in a table then sending any Excel files to a specified folder I've modified some code I found while surfing and it works great but I'd really like to send the attachment name and file path with the email recordset.

Dim Atmt As Outlook.Attachment

I have a database which has several records with at least 5 documents needing to be attached to each record. Using attachments or OLE would cause considerable bloat, so I opted for hyperlink fields for all the document types necessary to save with each record. However, now I am faced with an issue. It is easy enough to write code to open the files by following the hyperlinks, as well as write code to send an email, but how would I go about combining the two? I need to write a code that will attach these documents to an email, as attachments and not as hyperlinks. I know with excel documents, I could follow the hyperlink and send the document by email through excel, but I also have images converted to pdf's that need to be sent as attachments.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have some code that attaches any files that are in my attachment field on the current record in to a email this is great but I m starting to realise that this is take up way to much space as it hold a copy in the database and can t afford to go down the sql sever route so what I have done is added some new fields called path1, path2 ,path3 ,path4 and path5 now the user can add the files location to these text box instead of add them via the attachment field also I can now limit number attachments to each record

How to add attachments to a email using a sub form were I store the attachment paths
E.g I have a main form called frmteaminfomer with various fields and continuous subform called attachmentssubform in the sub form I have a field call txtaddress . I have some code that I can pick a file then put its file path into txtaddress field and also have a check box call add to email. so what I trying to do is loop through all the records in the subform and if the check box is true add the files as attachment on the email.
I have a database that I use to enter and keep track of details regarding purchase requests. I use a query in this database as a data source for a mail merge in Word that generates my purchase request documents. Part of closing the loop on this process includes attaching these Word documents to the records in the Access data tables they correspond to.
Now what I want to do is send these attachments via email to recipients based on other data field values. I have been looking into Automation since that seems to have been the answer for most people however all the Automation examples only show one attachment being added and that attachment is specified by a file path. I want to collect a group of attachments from the table in Access using an SQL statement with an WHERE clause. So my question is this:
Can I use Automation VBA script [URL] .... in addition to some data gathering technique like DAO Recordsets to collect the files I want to attach to the emails I am trying to send?
I am already pretty interested in the message modifications I can make using the features of the Outlook 14.0 Object library and I look forward to exploring it further but for now I'd just really like to be able to send purchase request documents to the right people using the data and attachments I have already put into my database.

I have a table with lots of different fields and field types. The two memo fields will not save. I have tried Runcommand and if me.dirty. Neither seems to work.All fields are from one table and I have tried deleting the fields and repopulating them onto the form to reset defaults. The only way the two fields save is if I hit Ctrl-S.
None of the 100+ fields on this one form (yes, it is large, weird part is it fits Normalization upthrough BNSF) have the same problem. They all save fine with or without the extra code. I am using Windows 7 and Access 2010.
I have some vba code that exports the results of a query to a specific excel workbook. Code in this workbook then takes the exported data to "fill out" areas in the workbook. My staff will then use this workbook to perform analysis on a project. After they have completed the analysis, they will then save the excel workbook, and another person will then validate this excel and turn it into a PDF to send as an email attachment.
My question is, when my staff saves the excel workbook, is there a way they can save it directly to the access database? If not, would there be a way to use vba to "attach" this excel workbook to the appropriate record in the access db for future use?
I need to save a new record from a form before it gets printed, the vba code behind the print button at the minute just opens the report and inserts the record in it. I need to put something in before that to save the record when the button is clicked.
The form in question is frmPlaceOrderFinal and I'm referring to the print button (command17). I've attached my system as well as an image for reference. The code that is currently behind the button:
Code:
Private Sub Command17_Click()
Dim strDocName As String
Dim strWhere As String
strDocName = "rptFinalInvoice"
strWhere = "[InvoiceID]=" & Me!InvoiceID
DoCmd.OpenReport strDocName, acPreview, , strWhere
End Sub
I need to save the record before it is opened in the report.
I have a form where the user can add as many rows as he wants - it's usually only 1 or 2 but that's not the point.When he has finished editing he clicks a Save and Exit button.In here I want to save data from the last row he has entered. I have this working but only if the cursor remains on the last row or on the 'new' record row. If he manages to, say, put his cursor on the penultimate row then I save the data for that.
eg.
Col1.........Col2..........Col3..............Col4
AA...........AAA...........AAAA.............AAAAA
BB...........BBB...........BBBB.............BBBBB
CC...........CCC...........CCCC.............CCCCC
DD...........DDD.........DDDD.............DDDDD
EE...........EEE............EEEE.............EEEEE
NEW LINE
So I for instance want to save Col3 on the last line filled in. Lets say the control is called Col3 then
If the cursor is on NEW LINE I have got the code so that
Me.Col3 "EEEE"
If the cursor is on the last line (the 5th) I have got the code so that
Me.Col3 "EEEE"
If the Cursor is on the first line i get "AAAA", "BBBB" for the 2nd etc. How do I always pick up the last line?
I currently have a working model which opens up a word document template, fills the bookmarks with info from access, saves the file as a preset name and then send the document on Outlook.
What I would like to do is save the document as a variable, preferably as something like " Climbing Request for site (and then to lift the site name from Access form field and insert here) "
E.G " Climbing Request - Newcastle Central Station.doc"
The location of the site name on access is...
Code:
objWord.Selection.Text = Forms![Front Page]![Site 2 Owner]
Currently I save the document using the below code...
Code:
objWord.ActiveDocument.SaveAs2 FileName:="C:UsersmedesktopFrom Colino2test.docx"
