Hi,
When the user click the button, then it will give out a popup form to the screen, but I want to make the popup form's height as same as the screen/window/monitor's height, because the popup form's height is larger than the screen's height, and every user's monitor's height is different. So, I have to make it flexiable change of the height of the popup form.
How can I check the screen/window height by VBA function?
In Excel, it has Application.Height to check. In MS Access Form, I cannot find one for doing that.
Please let me know if you have one.
Thanks.
I am working on a report that will have 16 sub-reports, one right below the other. Because of the complex nature of the calculations in the groupings it seemed easier to "build" the report using vba rather than using the report's built-in grouping ability. The issue I am running into is that there seems to be no simple way to control the height of the sub-reports. I had hoped that setting "can grow" to yes would change the height of the sub reports and move all subsequent sub reports down (Allas)
As an alternative I thought too that I might be able to set the height of the sub-report control, which would make for a tricky but not impossible bit of programming, but (Again allas) I can't seem to find a reasonable way to determine the required height of the sub-report's control.
I've many items to be put on a form. However, I can't expand the height of the form. The max height I can get is 55.873cm. Could anyone please teach me to expand it?
Many thanks.
I am trying to import an Excel spreadsheet into an Access table and running into a snag. Since the spreadsheet doesn't have column headers, I keep getting Run-time error '2391' - Field '0000000' doesn't exist in the destination table ... my table name.How can I import the data from a spreadsheet so that it ignores the fact that there is no column headers?
Here is the VBA/Module:
Option Compare Database
Dim myCheck
Function WebRegistration()
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acImport, acSpreadsheetTypeExcel9, "tbl_TruRewards Web Registration", "R:DEPT-BRCONSUMER LENDINGVISACardholder ActivityWeb Registration_TruRewards.xls", True, "Web Registration!F8:R50000"
End Function
Hi..
Is there anyone can help me?
how to create a form that automatically can make the form longer when user click a button?
thank you..
I have a pop up form that likes to change it's height after I enter design view among other things. I've searched the webs, but can't find out strictly how to set my pop up form to be height X and ALWAYS be height X no matter what.
The best answer I've found so far: [URL] ....
But as soon as I went back into the form in Design View the changes were lost.
Is there some VBA code I can use to resize the form every time it's opened?
Since many years I "fight" with pop-up forms, as in endless view I cannot figure out HOW to fix the height.
Some forms keep a height which was set by the System and it is suitable others have the full height of the Screen and I cannot find any Setting which can influence them.
How to define or to fix the height.
It only works when I set the border to "changeable", but not when I want to fix a height by Setting the border to "Dialog" ....
The data is pasted in cell B1, but there are no column headings.
Code:
Dim rs As dao.Recordset
Dim oExcel As Object
Dim oBook As Object
Dim oSheet As Object
Set rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("Name of my Query")
[Code] ....
If I copy the query manually and paste to Excel I get headings, so how should I edit this code to make it do that?
Secondly, I'll need to do a lot of formatting: set some column widths, wrap text, set borders etc. Theoretically I could export the data to a preformatted template, but the output could be anything from 10 rows to over 200, so I don't know how that could work.
I would like to export from access a recordset into Excel and bold the column headers.
My current code works for the most part, except for the bolding.
You run the code in Access module and the code does the following:
1) checks to see if the excel file is open
2) if excel file not open, it opens the file, clears existing records, and starts copying and pasting new recordset into the RAW worksheet
3) it is then supposed to bold the column headers.
bolding is not working.
Code:
Sub TestFileOpened()
Dim lastRow As Long
' Test to see if the file is open.
If IsFileOpen("c: est2003.xls") Then
' Display a message stating the file in use.
MsgBox "File already in use!"
[code]....
I have an access table and I want the code that will check two columns in the table "EnvelopeType" and "EnvelopeSize" and create headers in Excelsheet automatically. In the attached workbook, like in sheet1 the headers are already appeared, I want this to be done dynamically using vba code so that if new values get inserted in EnvelopeType and EnvelopeSize then we won't have to change the code to display more headers.
Please see attached workbook named Sample and Access table. E.g.
EnvelopeType EnvelopeSize
TNT 2nd Class C5
PP1 2nd Class C5
PPI 1st Class A4
Recorded A4
TNT 2nd Class C5
PP1 2nd Class C5
Recorded A4
PPI 1st Class A4
Recorded C5
With the code it should display following headers in excel sheet:
TNT 2nd Class C5
PP1 2nd Class C5
PPI 1st Class A4
Recorded A4
Recorded C5
I built a form that will allow each page header to take the info needed depending on who is using the data base. I seem to be having a problem having the Logo uploaded so that it can be used. Since I am new to Access, my only example would be like a web page. use the location of the picture in the code and it pulls it up for each page associated. I guess this would be 2 questions. How do I add to my form the upload of the graphics and how do I get the reports and forms to pull that picture into the header every time.

I am trying to find a VBA code that will allow me to import a several text files to one table. The text files are all in the same format but I cannot remove the page headers and footers to get the table to look right. I have attached an example of the text file i am trying to import but it is a stripped down version for information protection.
Also, it appears in the old Database Table once imported as:
J.Smith 1234 01 ABCD ABCD HGJV 2345 ABCDE ABC6 Qual Date Date
J.Smith 1234 01 ABCD ABCD HGJV 2345 ABCDE ABC6 Qual Date Date
J.Smith 1234 01 ABCD ABCD HGJV 2345 ABCDE ABC6 Qual Date Date
J.Adam 1234 01 ABCD ABCD HGJV 2345 ABCDE ABC6 Qual Date Date
J.Adam 1234 01 ABCD ABCD HGJV 2345 ABCDE ABC6 Qual Date Date
J.Adam 1234 01 ABCD ABCD HGJV 2345 ABCDE ABC6 Qual Date Date
If I could import the text files and end up with a table like this, it would be all i need as i could run all the queries i need from this.
Hi,
Does anyone know how to set the application's width and height? I have an access application and I want to resize the applicatoins' with and height, NOT the forms!
is this possible?
greetings

Hi everyone, have a problem which is probably very easy to fix but i cannot for the life of me figure out why it is happening. I'm hoping someone with more experience than me knows what this is and how to sort it. I have a form with controls at the top then a subform and then a series of buttons below the subform. I have recently added another control above the subform and moved the subform down, but this has caused the subform to appear partially covering the buttons appearing below it. Seems simple....shrink the subform. It doesn't work. In the design view the subform only has a height of 5cm but in the front end it seems to grow with the form as that increases in size. can grow has been set to no on the subform and the details section. Nothing i do seems to stop the subform from making it's own mind up about it's height!!!
Thanks in advance for any help

I have a form which is set to display continuous forms - just like a table but a bit nicer to look at! is it possible to make the forms height vary depending on how many records there are?
thanks in advance!

My report has the Section's Footer.
Each time the section runs, it will take up a different amount of space.
I have already run all the code, to move all the different controls to the top (and be invisible) when they are not needed.
So to the best of my knowledge, I have no controls sitting in the lower part of the section.
The last thing I run is:
Code: Me.S123.Height = Me.S123.Height - 300
s123 is the name of the Footer SEctions. The idea is that it gets progressively smaller.
This is all running in:
Code:Private Sub S123_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer)
All the other things work.
Here is a sample of it all..
Code:If Me.txt2 = 0 Then Me.a2.Visible = False Me.b2.Visible = False Me.a2.Top = 0 Me.b2.Top = 0 Me.box.Height = Me.box.Height - 300 Me.S123.Height = Me.S123.Height - 300End IfIf Me.txt2 <> 0 Then Me.a2.Visible = True Me.b2.Visible = TrueEnd IfIf Me.txt3 = 0 Then Me.a3.Visible = False Me.b3.Visible = False Me.a3.Top = 0 Me.b3.Top = 0 Me.box.Height = Me.box.Height - 300 Me.S123.Height = Me.S123.Height - 300End If
This runs through 8 different numbers.
as I said, all the other things operate properly. They get hidden and move.
Any thoughts?
Thanks.
I have a caption named original investment.
I want it to be displayed as
original
investment
at the column head not as
original investment
how do I do this?
thanks
How do I make the blank line disappear after the control is no longer visible? I tried to set the Height property to 0 in the OnPrint Event but I got an error message 2191, you can’t set height property after printing has started.
Thank you,

I have an existing report with a number of fields arranged horizontally in a tabular fashion in the detail section. The first field is an identifying line of text and the remaining fields are numerical calculations. The report is basically a simple profitability estimate report for a number of different products.
Behind the fields of data is another text box that is blank, which stretches across all the horizontal fields, and which changes background color using conditional formatting. When printing, this colors the whole row according to that criteria (it changes color based on the relative profitability of each product in the report).
The problem I'm having is that the first line of identifying text can sometimes overflow.
I've set the Can Grow property to Yes for this and all other controls in the Detail section. But the result is sometimes some funny-looking formatting. The identifier (like "Product XYZ with a really long description") will word-wrap, but every other field in that row maintains their own height. In particular, this makes the coloring of the conditionally formatted row look off, because it provides only one line's worth of color, even though the product description has wrapped to two lines.
How I can resize all the controls in the Detail section based on the height of the tallest control, and keep the whole thing dynamic?
Things I've tried: I've tried putting some VBA in either the OnFormat or the OnPrint events that iterates through the controls in the section and resets their heights. In the "OnFormat" event, nothing happens (no errors and no apparent changes in the appearance of the report). In the "OnPrint" event, I get an error that says the height property cannot be changed during a print or print preview.
The VBA I tried using was as follows:
Code:
Dim ctlIt As Control
Dim lngMaxHeight As Long
For Each ctlIt In Me.Controls
If ctlIt.ControlType = acTextBox Then
[Code] ....
I have a report which will be printed on preprinted paper. On this paper a footer is printed with e.g. address info.
The report has a detail section with a height of 3,5 inch and canGrow=true.
The reportFooter contains totals. The size of this footer, and placements of the fields prevents printing data on the pre-printed footer of the paper.
But when the report has multiple pages, the report footer will be printed on the laste page, and the detail section is expanding to the bottom of the paper, overwriting the pre-printed footer. I need a max height of the detail section, or another solution.
I have a report that prints lab tests. One section has 4 columns that are framed. Only the first control (STest) expands to more than one line. The Can Grow works on this control and subsequently the section expands. I need a code that expands the height of the other three controls to match that of STest. I am using office 2010.
View 11 Replies View RelatedHow to fix the height and width of a report. I would like the report to stay landscape, 100mm wide, 62mm high. This is required by a label printer.
The issue is that a A4 laser printer has to be set as default (for other software) so when the report is launched the size is set to the default printer size, when I select the label printer it fails as it is the wrong size.
In the detail section of my report, I recently added a second row which has only 1 text field. When the value of the textbox in the 2nd row is null, I want the total row height equal to just the first row. When the value in the textbox in the 2nd row is not null, then the total row height is equal to row 1 and 2. I tried to make the textbox in the second row invisible when it had a null value thinking that when it was null, the report would shrink to the first row height, but that didn't seem to work.
