Modules & VBA :: How To Hide Field In Unfiltered Report
Feb 27, 2015
I have a form that has a drop down box with all of my project numbers in it. when I choose a project number, I can then choose from several report buttons on that same page that opens a report just showing that projects info (easy enough). I then have different report buttons that open those same reports, but showing every project (no filter).
The reports have a cover page that has the field, 'project number' in the front, so when a particular project is chosen from the drop down, that project number will show on the cover page (still pretty easy).
My question is, when I open the full report(no filter), is there a way to tell the report not to show the 'project number' field? since the full reports show every project, the 'project number' field will show the first project number, which is not what I want to do.
I've done this once entirely by accident and can't seem to duplicate it...
I have a report. It has the following:
Report Header: Logo and title Department Header Supervisor Header Group Header Detail Department Footer: Totals Report Footer: Overall Totals for all departments
Here's my question. I have combo boxes on my main form that filter this report. The combo boxes are referred to by the query that runs the report. How do I get proper unfiltered overall totals in my report footer?
I have a report in which I'm trying to hide some elements from view in case a specific value is Null. Access seems to do this automatically if the report is in print-preview-mode, but not in normal view-report-mode.
I've tried something like this, but it's not really working:
Code: private sub report_load() if nz(txtfield, 0) = 0 then txtfield.visible = false end if end sub
I have code that I want to cycle through several fields and check instead of coding for each individual field. I thought this might worked on an earlier project but Im lost. When I try to add my code in the "If MyControls Then", I want it to hide the field on a report if it is blank. It doesnt allow me to do MyControls.Visible.
Code: If Len(Reports!RecallReport!QAW1 & vbnullsting) = 0 Then Reports!RecallReport!QAW1.Visible = False End If
but I want the below code to go through each field With QAW in it and hide it if it is blank.Or having it go through each field individual. There are 10 Fields With QAW THen there are another 10 fiels with ShipDist. I would prefer a simple solution to check all at once.
Code: Dim MyControls As Control For Each MyControls In Me.Controls ' Iterate through each element. If InStr(1, MyControls.Name, "QAW") Then If MyControls Then End If End If Next
I don't even know if I am on the right track or what.
I am working on a database. I created a list box (ListBox) that filters record for a form. This list box is controlled by another field (SearchBox) where I type search string.
The ListBox visibility is hidden when the form loads. It only becomes visible when the user starts to type in the SearchBox. The records gets filtered and when the user clicks on the selection, the form goes to the record and the ListBox becomes hidden again. All this works fine. My problem is for some technical reasons I want the ListBox to show only when there is character in the the SearchBox. When I try to type in the SearchBox the ListBox shows but when I try to clear the SearchBox with backspace the ListBox is still visible
I tried:
Code: If me.SearchBox = Null Then me.ListBox.Visible = False Else me.ListBox.Visible = True
I also tried
Code: If IsNull (SearchBox) Then
Still when I type backspace the ListBox remains visible.
EDIT: I forgot to mention that I put this code on the current event of the SearchBox Field.
I have created a form with 3 subforms on. i was just wondering is it possible to display/ hide these subforms based on a Yes/No field in the form. as the subforms would only be valid if the field is ticked as yes.
I have create a report which contains a check box. What I want to do is to hide the box if it null. I have attached an example database to show what I'm trying to do. I have tried using:
Private Sub Detail_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer) If IsNull(Me.[Written Work Seen1]) Then Me.[Written Work Seen1].Visible = False If IsNull(Me.[Written Work Seen2]) Then Me.[Written Work Seen2].Visible = True End Sub
in the OnFormat event of the Details section of the report.
i am trying to make a small database for my uncle, but i am stuck in the report. can someone help me out and tell me how to hide the title, the value and a label only when the field is empty...

A report with multiple lines with name. I have chosen the 'Hide Duplicate' option on the name text box and when the report is printed all is well. However in the display prior to printing when the print option popup is present no name are shown. Some simple setting?
How can i do that ? If i shall write a code, in which event ?? Or can i use in Query Build option ?
I searched on internet and found some answers but they are not useful
(i found this code and updated for my report but still did not work)
Private Sub Detail_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer) (<- what is that ??) If Me.Skyliner = 0 Then Me.SkylinerCover.Visible = True Else Me.SkylinerCover.Visible = False End If
I am posting a report to the web, in a pdf format. the issue is I have data that is hidden under conditional formating in which if it meet the criteria the font is white and background white. This is great since it shows up blank on pdf. However if a slick person takes the pdf highlights the page and transfers it to a word document, he can highlight that area change the font to black and see the data. Is there a way to hide the data prior to creating a pdf.
I am attempting to use VBA code to make the label in my report hidden if the text box is blank. I am very new to coding, and am not sure how I would express this in code. I have been looking at a few examples of how to get this done, but it doesn't seem to work. Where to insert the code. Attached is the image of the properties for my label and text box that I want hidden if text field is blank. I al just lost trying to figure this out.
There seems to be some inconsistency in controlling the ribbons in Access 2013.I have managed to use the USysRibbons custom table and XLM to hide the ribbon in one app, but when I set the same config up in another db's the ribbon wont hide.
I've then made an empty db and tried in this and it still wont hide.What are the "current db" setting that must be set to make the ribbon hide?
I'm still learning Access 2010 and having issues getting my buttons to work. I'm working on a simple address database.edit/save button. On form load, my fields are locked and my button will read "edit". After clicking, my fields are unlocked, my search features are locked, and my button reads "save" just how I need it to. The issue happens when I try and save the field edits, lock fields, return search features, and get button to read "edit" again. I know I need to add some code into what I already have, but I'm running into a wall as I have tried many options to get it to work. Here is the code for this button:
Code: Private Function Lockdown() 'locks controls at load Dim tb As Control Dim cb As Control Dim subf As Control
[code]...
Second issue is with my report button. I have not been able to get this to work once. I have done many searches on single record reports, and have found the same code every time. I added that code into my database, but can't seem to get it to work. In my database there are two address (shipping and work location) which I would like to print out together. I have the work location on the main form and the shipping on a subform. There are and upwards of 150 locations I will have in my database, Here is the code I'm working with:
Code: Private Sub cmdrptadd_Click() Dim strReportName As String Dim strCriteria As String
I have a form with various fields, two of these fields are "Date Purchased" and "Lease End Date". When there is no value entered originally, I have made a default value of 12/30/9999.
The problem is that when you open the form and these two fields are next to each other, the user says it confuses them seeing a date even though it is a dummy date.
Is there a way for me to create a expression that will be something like:
I would like to have 3 buttons on a form. When clicking Button1, Button2 and Button3 should be shown and Button1 hidden. When clicking Button3, Button2 and Button3 should be hidden and Button1 shown.
How can I do this when it is not possible to manage the object being clicked? I tried the following which did not work because of managing an object clicked is not allowed.
I need to display the year, Date, agent name, amount field, note and sub total for each year.I need to write the SQL query code in VBA and i designed the report with proper field positions.
YEAR column: Display Value only once for the FIRST ROW for Maximum value of Date field value for each set of YEAR. If it has only one record, it display that year.SUB TOTAL Column: Display Total Value for Amount field only once for the LAST ROW of each set of year record (Mininum value of year). How to make it available the values for first and last record alone ?
I just wrote my SQL code based on your inputs in my editor..Based on the input from Plog (from this forum), i wrote a code which listed below.
Code: Private Sub Report_Open(Cancel As Integer) Me.RecordSource = "SELECT CessioneCredito.Anno, CessioneCredito.Data_Movimento, CessioneCredito.Note_Liq_Cessione_Credito, CessioneCredito.Importo, " & _ " Agenzie.Denominazione, DCount("[Anno]","CessioneCredito","[Anno]=" & [Anno]) AS GroupSize,
[Code] ....
While saving it, it shows the code in RED COLOR due to compilation error.As I am writing the query in Me.Recordsource = "SQL query", where i should place the below listed code in the query as per Plog???
Change the Year Control Source to this: =IIf([GroupPos]=1,[Year]) Change the GroupTotal Control Source to this: =IIf([GroupPos]=[GroupSize],[GroupTotal])
If this is not possible in Me.recordsource, then its advisable to use recordset like writing in two different queries.
Code: Dim ds1 As Recordset Dim ds2 As Recordset myquery1 = "SELECT CessioneCredito.ID_Agente, CessioneCredito.Data_Movimento, CessioneCredito.Importo, CessioneCredito.Anno, CessioneCredito.Note_Liq_Cessione_Credito, Agenzie.Denominazione FROM CessioneCredito INNER JOIN Agenzie ON CessioneCredito.ID_Agente=Agenzie.ID_agenzia WHERE (((CessioneCredito.ID_Agente)=[Reports]![R_StoricoCessCredAg]![ID_Agente]))"
What's in the fields is irrelevant but i'd like to change that to ***** the original value should stay there but when you view the record it should only give *****
for example
field value : HELLO when viewed: *******
Does anyone know how this could be done I ones knew how it was done but can't find it anymore
I have a field which looks like this - "d123456", I will have to display the field without the "d" in front, meaning I will need to show "123456" Any idea how I can do this? Thanks!
I have created a query that will create a table automatically. I want one of the fields that I have defined in the query, not to show up on the table. the purpose of that field is just to check a minimum value so that the field next to it can use the value. when I uncheck the "show" box in design view the field completely disappears and Access asks the user to enter a value for that name since the value is used in the field next to it.
