Modules & VBA :: How To Print Report Without Displaying Report
Jul 8, 2015
On this form, there is a text box for Quantity...At the end of the form, there will be a button that when pressed:The current record the data on the form is entered for is saved,A report is printed on a specific printer,I do not want the report to actual display,The number of copies it prints should be equal to what the quantity field indicates.I do have the report already created and the Quantity field is on the report (just not visible).Once this all happens, it should return the user to the form, that is blank, waiting for a new record entry.
I have an unbound form with an associated report. When the user hits the 'print' button on the form/screen, the report is launched in the background. In the On Load event of the report I populate the report fields from the forms field as so:
This works like a charm as long as I call the report in Print Preview mode (i.e. with acViewPreview). But if I send the report directly to the printer, none of the fields print.
I've read about using other report events to populate the fields (e.g., On Format and On Print) and also something about using TempVars to pass the data. But I haven't read anything that's clear and definitive about the full answer.
I have report that I open in reportview. On this report there is a button wich would allow the user to print the report. I have put the following code behind the button:
If MsgBox("Are you sure you want to print the report?", vbQuestion + vbYesNo) = vbYes Then DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdPrint End If
The printdialog is appearing on the screen but if I click print nothing is happening.
Is it not possible to print a report like this?
As all the ribbons are hidden I am not able to use the access print button.
I'm trying to print a Report specific to the record i'm viewing on my Form. I've created a Report linked to the Table - "SCJobsheet".I've created a button in my Form;
Name; cmdSCJobsheet Caption: Print Record OnClick: [Event Procudure]
[code]...
The Report is opening but shows Every record (Not just the one I'm viewing in the Form.
1- Open the Report called : ConsentForm 2- Print it to PDF printer (report is currently defaulted to that printer driver) 3- Save to folder: C:SOSConsentForms 4- Save as: Consent_[Last]_[First] (these are field names on the form) Result i.e.: C:SOSConsentFormsConsent_Doe_John 5- Then send the file by email (Outlook) to : abc@hotmail.com
Actually I need to select printer before printing report. That's why I need to call printer dialog to select printer using "PrintObject" in macro. But it's print the form not report. I need to print a specific report.
i have created a MultiSearch query witch puts my results in a list box.under it i have created a button wich i want to use to print a report with the criteria i select from my list box if there is more than one result.
Following is the Code i used for my button
On Error GoTo Err_Command60_Click Dim stDocName As String Dim stLinkCriteria As String stDocName = "ReportLable" stLinkCriteria = "[ProductID]=" & Me![SearchResults] DoCmd.OpenReport stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria Exit_Command60_Click: Exit Sub Err_Command60_Click: MsgBox Err.Description Resume Exit_Command60_Click
Every time u press the button i get a message syntax error(missing Operator) in query expression
Now i have not used any code in my Query except for
Like "*" & [forms]![frmSearchFor]![SrchText] & "*"
I want to be able to print preview a report based on 1 record record selected in the subform. So using the example above i'd like to print the record on say 01/01/13 as a report that contains all the information from the item table and only the information on the 01/01/13 from the record table.
I have VBA code for a Print Preview button on the main form that previews the current record in a separate Report using this code:
Code: Private Sub cmdPrintRecord_Click() Dim strWhere As String
If Me.Dirty Then 'Save any edits. Me.Dirty = False End If
[code]....
I use this Print Preview code on a Button in the Form Header. The Main form lists head of household information. I also have a tabbed control with three tabs that have SubForms for Address, Children and Contact details. The problem I have is that if any of the subforms are left blank I get a Run-Time Error '3021': No Current Record. If I Debug (press the button), it takes me straight to this line:
highlighted in Yellow.Anyone on my database must have an address, should have contact details and could have children. If any one of these is blank then the print preview will not work.I would like to know how to stop this error happening for blank records in my subforms.
Code for displaying the Word Print dialogue box instead of sending it straight to the printer.
I have the following code:
'Open Word Set objWord = New Word.Application 'Letter document would be open Set objletter = objWord.Documents.Open(strletterpath & strworddoc) objletter.MailMerge.OpenDataSource (strletterpath & strletterfile) objletter.MailMerge.Destination = wdSendToPrinter 'normally print Dialogs(wdDialogFilePrint).Show objletter.MailMerge.Execute 'not normally here 'objWord.Visible = True
This is to produce a mailmerge based upon a query.
Previously on Access 2000 and Word 2000 it would display the print dialogue box, but I am trying to upgrade it all to 2013 and this does not do it now with Access 2013 and Word 2013.
I have a report which programmatically sets the value of some labels based on its own internal logic for each line of the detail section of a report. This all works fine and dandy, using the Detail_format event, and accessing detail.controls.item(x).caption.
HOWEVER, when I then embed the report as a subreport (which I need to do), I goes wrong. Here, I get the values of the last row of the detail repeated in every previous one. I'm suspecting because the parent report has its own 'detail' (I've tried giving the subreport its own distinct detail name).
I have a form with 2 buttons on it, I'll call them button 1 and button 2. When I click on button 1 it calls a class that will go through and calculate some totals and then write them back to a table, all access to the table is managed through ADO. Then I can go over to button 2 and pull up a report displaying the totals. Although when I click on button 2 the report will be about half empty, only displaying 0's in most cases. If I close the report and open it again using button 2 all the data will be populated. What is going on here???
Don't Kill me folks... I know this has been asked and answered, but I'm not able to get it to work. I'm using Access 2000.
I have an image in the Report called ImageFrame and the following code:
Code:Private Sub Detail_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer) On Error Resume Next Me.ImageFrame.Picture = Me.PhotoEnd Sub
What am I doing wrong? Is there something else to set? I don't get an error, but it only shows the image I chose to place the image control in the first place...
In the report I am trying to generate I want every possible option for a specific field to show. I have it set up now as accessing its options from a table but can change it to a value list if that will be easier. I have listed a sample of what I want and what I am getting to explain what I mean by this. If anyone can help me go from one type to the other I would appreciate the help!
** I put dashes between the columns since this forum doesn't exactly show things in a column.

I am using Access 2007..I have created a main form and have inserted a subform. When I open the main form, the subform displays correctly. However, when I go to create a Report from the main form, the subform information is not displaying.
I have searched and searched for this on the forum but to no avail. :(
I have just installed Adobe Acrobat 6.0 and so can create PDFs. Does anyone know the code I need for a button on a form to print a report to PDF format?
I run a Query based on some data in a "drop-down" box. It works in just datasheet view, but when I print it on a report, it displays the position that the data is in the drop-down box. How do I display the data, not the position on the report? Here's an example: My drop down box contains: apples oranges bananas
My query returns apples, but in the report view it displays the number "1" instead of my data "apples". If the query returned oranges, the report would display "2" instead of "oranges" and so on.
I have a form in which I want to retrieve images from a folder. Each record contains a txt field where the path of the image is located. Not every record contains a path to the image file as some records does not have images. I have created an image field in my form and used the following code: Me.Image129.Picture = Me.imagetxt to retrieve the image. I would like to display an image containing the words "No Image" whenever the imagetxt field is blank. How would I do this. I cannot go back and fill in the blank imagetxt field with a path as I am pulling the data from an external source. Also, would this be the same method if I am creating an image field for a report? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have a report, which opens a dynamic search form (built off of John Big Booty's code from this site). The form opens, and works as expected.During the dynamic search form testing, I created an 'OK' button that opens another form to display the record, but the dynamic search was opened first.
I would like to reprogram the button to display the selected record in the report which opened it.How can I get the selected record to display in the already open report?
I have a report that opens from a command button on a form. The settings on the report are set to pop-up and modal to keep the focus on the report until closed. I like the settings as they are but I need to print the report once it pops up. As the settings go, I cannot access or use the toolbars to print the report. How can I print the report from the pop-up, modal view? :mad:
I'm not sure if this is possible in Access, but I was wondering if there is a way to automatically run an Update query when a report is printed.
More specifically, I have confirmation reports, and I want the date printed and confirmation sent fields to be updated upon printing. I have an update query ready, but because I'm not going to be the person actually doing the work, I'd like the update query to be run automatically.
I have a report that is dependent on the content of a single text box (a student's name). I would like to be able to select multiple names from a listbox and loop through those names to print the reports. So far, no success.
I believe that if I could pass the name of the student during the loop to the text box, the report would print properly.
Below is an attempt to pass the names in the listbox to the textbox.
Set frm = Forms![Student Reports] Set ctl = frm![lstStudentNames]
