Possible To Color Certain Entries? Exclude Filter? Print Options?
Jul 12, 2005
OK, Im new to access, and have a database of 210,000 people.
I have to fit a lot of data printing sideways. Also in a certain format...
First thing...
There is a field that may contain RKS with other info or RKS alone. These must all be red along with the addresses, but thats it. But when I change the font color it changes the whole database. Thats it.
Other thing... I want to do a sort of exclude filter? We need to do some printing... again with the rsk, but we want to exclude anything that has rks in a specific field.
The last thing is print options/page setup...
I want to condense it as much as possible from left to right so al the needed information can be printed.
Here is how we want it printed...
__________________________________________________ ______________
Street here, house # | then other information in approated columns here
customer #, name here |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
the problem is, street address, house number, customer number, first and last name are all in different columns.
is there anyway i can print it this way?
also the column names need to be extended downwards? some of the names are too long
like |This is column a| but we want
|this is |
|column a|
so it isnt as wide. and I can fit more columns on the page.
Thanks a lot for your help, I only have 2 hours to get this.

Oh yeah, if it helps, Im stuck with access in german :(
I have a form which my company wanted that each single record should be printed from form. I made a print record button and put code to print single page or record. However as a natural habit people go to file > print to print which leads printing all records so 1000's records start printing. Is there any way i can hide print button. File >Print button.
I have the following code which builds a filter on my form which i can then generate a report from.
However id like to add a check box to exclude rather than include a certain [Error_Type] which is "Wrong Batch" and im not sure how id do it..
the vba i have so far is as follows
Code: Private Sub cmdFilterConvErrors_Click() Dim strWhere As String Dim lngLen As Long Const conJetDate = "#mm/dd/yy#" If Not IsNull(Me.txtqccheckby) Then strWhere = strWhere & "([Error_QC_By] = """ & Me.txtqccheckby & """) AND "
I ned to create a form that asks the user which reports they want to preview/print. I see it as a set of tick boxes with one saying all, then a print button. Im not really sure though, can someone offer some advise or maybe an example?
I have the below code behind a button to merge and print into MSWord and it's working wonderfully. However, how can I modify it to print 1 copy of page one, TWO copies of page 2 and one copy of page 3?

I created a form that has about 8 different filter options that can be used to filter a query. I used the filter by form table to set it all up and I can get each of them to work individually as well as 2 work together... but as soon as I added the information for the 3rd, I stopped getting results... in fact nothing happens. Even with the code for all 3 and selecting just 1 option, nothing happens any more. I have
cbopersonnel that is supposed to look up values in 4 different personnel columns cboshift that looks up all shift work cboworkdef that looks up what the job was (just a title)
Having just 2 in the filter by form works great, but adding 3 screws everything up. And I'm not talking about selecting all three (I know that would limit the output more) but I mean, with all 3 setup and selecting shift as "nights"... nothing gets filtered anymore. I have cbopersonnel on "look for" tab and everything else is on the next "or" tab. I tried to set it up on individual tabs but access combined it. I also tried adding cboshift to the "or" tab with everything else and access sent it back to "look for". All of the cbo references are under their respective search area... so in the table, the shift column has the cboshift lookup value. Is it just because I'm not using quotes around the cbo output? That doesn't make sense to me though. Anyway below is the lookup value for the cboshift.
I'm trying to use a cascading combo box to filter the options that can be entered into a second combo box.
In frmBabies, a Mode of Delivery is selected from 8 options. 4 of these are "normal" deliveries and 4 are caesarean sections.
A second combo box selects the Indication for Operative Delivery. The table tblIndOpDel contains options for normal as well as caesareans. I would like to filter the indications so that the user cannot enter an indication for normal delivery for a caesarean section.
Both tblIndOpDel and tblDelMode have a foreign key to tblDelModeCat, which categories deliveries as normal or caesarean.
I'm stuck on how to proceed from here. Sample database attached.
In a local DB table or a data grid view, the columns have an arrow at the top next to the name. When the arrow is clicked, all the entries in that column are displayed with check boxes. They are listed underneath the "sort" and "text filter" options. I am working on a DB project with ODBC linked tables instead of a local access table.
My linked table does not have this same functionality. It is missing the names with check boxes where I can select individual entries. I don't know the correct terminology for this functionality I am describing. That makes searching tough. What this is called and why the tables would be different.
I have almost completed creating a continuous form which I want users to be able to filter though the records based on to/from date, badgenum and a response string.
I then want to have a button, btnSelect, that will select the remaining records and open a report based off only the remaining records.
1.) Everything on the continuous form works except when trying to filter a combo box, cboBadge, field name "BadgeNum". BadgeNum is data type "short text". I have modified the code below from the following Allen Browne link. It keeps throwing a debug on me.Filter = strWhere at the bottom of the btnFilter sub.
2.) As far as the btnSelect and printing remaining records, I guess I'm not sure where to start.. I currently have another print button that will print individual records only which works fine.

Code: Private Sub btnFilter_Click() Dim strWhere As String 'The criteria string. Dim lngLen As Long 'Length of the criteria string to append to. Const conJetDate = "#mm/dd/yyyy#" 'The format expected for dates in a JET query string.
I am using the Navigation form and I have a tab that has all the sales quotes for a particular salesperson. Because my salespeople like to work with paper I have created sub tabs which contain a report with the same information but filtered based as follows: this Month, this year, and Last year. This report needs to be printable based on the filtered information so I created a print button within the report however when clicked it prints the entire report not the filtered report.
The filter criteria is located in the navigation button, navigation where under the data properties. I have the on click event of the button set to open the report in print preview but I need to know how I filter the where in the macro to read the criteria from the active navigation button property?
I have a table in access which is updated weekly; I need to create two tables from this updated table.
1st table will consist of all the new entries for the current week
2nd table will consist of all the entries from the previous week - an amalgamation of all the entries which are not from the "current week" (table) For example; the table below shows the two entries from last week.
ID Name
1 Adam
2 Ben
This week I have three new entries New entries
ID Name
3 Charles
4 Richard
So when I run the same query next week I will get something like this.
Old Entries ID Name
1 Adam
2 Ben
3 Charles
4 Richard
[code]....
How do I get a query /queries which divides up the weeks new entries and also all the old entries.
I am trying to run a query to show who has not paid for an item. I have a column in my table labeled "check amount". It is set as currency under data type. The default value that is put in if I have not entered a value, is $0.00. How do I run a query that excludes the $0.00 value?
Hello I am new to this site as well as MS Access and SQL. So any help would be appreciated. Sorry if this is too drawn out. I have this query that returns the previous business day's(Monday through Friday) number of docs sent from my department to another department. I would manually go into the SQL view in Access and change the date to yesterday. The easy part was having the code do the previous day. The problem comes Monday morning when the code does the previous day. It will do Sunday which will return nothing since I really want Friday's numbers. I am trying to figure out how to take into consideration if the query is run on Monday morning and to automatically choose Friday. I checked out DayOfWeek() and Case When condition statements but really unsure about syntax and whatnot. Here is the SQL view of the query...
Need to know if there is a way to exclude a subform from printing when I print forms?
Here's what I'm trying to do - Have a form that contains multiple subforms that are linked back to the master form. One of these subforms is a memo which they would like to see on the "preliminary or draft" copy of this form but would like to exclude it from the "final" copy.
I would think there is some why to do it but I'm stumped at the moment.
I want to create a copy of a table which I do using the code below.
SELECT * INTO My_Temp_Table FROM My_Table WHERE ColumnA = 100
Great, all works well.... but I want to exclude a column when the temp table is being built. I know I could specify all the columns I want leaving out the undesired column (rather than using SELECT *) but there are lots of them and, whilst in development, the table columns are liable to change. So I'd like to copy all coumns that are in force at any given time except one in particular?
I thought it would be something like :-
SELECT * INTO My_Temp_Table FROM My_Table WHERE ColumnA = '100' AND Columnname NOT LIKE 'ColumnB';
After run this query, there is a field(Subject4) has a null value. Before I make a nice report, I have to exclude Subject4 & Sum4. And this will make Subject5 the fourth subject without displaying Subject4 & Sum4.
if you have a table of data (for example, where I have a long list of investors who should not show up in my queries and I don't want to try typing a very long list in a query's IN statement).
So, I created a "Quick Tutorial" to show how easy it is to use a table to exclude data from a query.
I have an access 2010 contacts database with 736 entries and I need a simple query to filter out entries after 1/03/2013. The date is entered by the Date Picker and there is no Input Mask set. I am using d/mm/yyyy in the table. The query I am trying design displays FirstName, LastName and DateAdmitted, I need to filter out all entries admitted after 1/03/2013. I have used <#1/03/2013# as the criteria and that returns over 49,000 entries in instead of about 700 entries.And I thought this was going tobe easy!!
I have a table that lists Cost Center, Partner, and Cost. I need a query to sum the cost when Cost Center and Partner do not match. How can I write that expression?
I made a query to calculate the average of a column, suppose that I have 5 records in that column (46,35,0,19.3,12), when the query calculate the average it sums the total of the column and divide by 5 (that's 112/5 = 22.4), what I need the query to do is to divide by 4 because one record is zero (that's 112/4=28). I put in the criteria the following (Not Is Null And <>0), yes this will not show the column that has zero but it still divide by 5.
My form is a profile of a dog and contains a Dog_ID. The ComboBox is a list of dogs names and shows all the females I want it to show all the females less the female that it is being linked with.
possible to exclude certain boxes when a form is set to read only?My database essentially has 4 user levels (Developer, Admin, User and Guest), and whenever a Guest opens up a form, the form opens as Read Only and a message box displays telling you this. However on most of these forms, there are search boxes which allows you go straight to a specific record, but they don't modify any data, but because the form is read only, I can't type in these comboboxes. So is there anyway to exclude these boxes from being read only?
This has been working fine - all the files that meet that criteria are deleted, but now I need the option to exclude a particular file from those to be deleted: the particular file would be identified by having some specific text in its filename. So for example I need to be able to delete all files meeting the criteria EXCEPT any files that have the string "summary" as part of the filename.
