Print List Box Contents.......
Mar 24, 2006
...seems such a simple thing to do but I'm completly stuck. Everything I've found on the forum suggests alternatives to doing to above i.e. setting the query that produces the list to produce that report print directly but that wont work for this situation unfortunately.:eek:
Some background....
I have a form (lucky me) in which the user enters 3 category levels and a branch id, they click a button to generate a list of 50 random stock ids so they can be checked at the branch. A preview of the Stockid's (along with description and Stocklevels) is shown in a list on the form. The stock manager then needs to print the list box contents. If the query is re-run it will differ from what is shown in the list so I need to avoid this.
Any help greatly appreciated.....;) :confused: ;)

I want to print text based upon the content of the field but need more than the IIF statement. For example, if the field contains an "A" I want to print "Active", "C" I want to print "Closed", "N" I want to print "New", etc.
Thanks in advance for any help. You guys have always had an answer in the past!

Hey guys,
I have created a list box that is based on a select statement using the value of another list box.
for example:
box1 lets you select aaaa
box2 shows a list of all the records that have aaaa
now I need to know how to clear the list as box1 is changed
right now it will give me
aaaa123
aaaa789
bbbb123
bbbb789
I need to know how to clear it so that
aaaa is deleted and bbbb shows when the code is stepped through a second time.
code is as follows:
Private Sub Car_Empty_GotFocus()
prefix_input = Form_Car_Loading.Prefix.Value
Set db = DBEngine.OpenDatabase blah, blah, blah
sqlstatement = "SELECT [prefix], [Car_number], [Date_loaded] " & _
" FROM Car_loading where isnull(Date_Loaded)= true and prefix= '" & prefix_input & "' "
Set record = db.OpenRecordset(sqlstatement, dbOpenSnapshot, dbSeeChanges)
Move first
Do Until record.EOF = True
Form_Car_Loading.Car_Empty.AddItem (record(0) & record(1))
record.MoveNext
Loop
db.Close
End Sub

When I select a UserName from a combo box in a form e.g. User3 , a list of all files with extensions ".doc" in the respective directory (c:usersuser3*.doc) should render with a hyperlink to the file / s.
I have tried variouse "Select Case" and "FileSearch, FoundFiles" scripts, to no avail.
Any assitance would appreciated.

After finding the way to see, open and delete files using listboxes, is there a way we can print a file stored on a C drive, by selecting it and writing a code to the double click event? Thanks.

Hello,
I have a table (named EFORMS) with one field which stores the names of reports.
I have cretaed a form (named FORM1) on which I have placed a listbox which has its source to the table EFORMS so that I can see the list of forms available in my database.
Each form has its source to a different query that get's its criteria from a txtbox placed on my FORM1.
I was thinking of placing some code to the double click event of my listbox so that once selected, users can automatically print the report.
Is there a way to do this? THanks.

I've created a simple listbox on a report in MS Access 2010 so that there are two options A or B. Default is option A and I am able to change that to option B when in Report View, but if I switch to Print Preview, the report is refreshed and value defaults back to A.I have done something similar with a check box connected to VBA, still wondering how to use a list box to print optional values.

Just a quickie- i hope. :rolleyes:
I am in the process of trying to merge two large databases. I have four tables that really should be one to work in the new DB. I just need to be able to print a list of fields in each table so that I can work on the new combined structure before making the changes. I know I can use the documenter but this produces a very comprehensive list which is much more than I need.
Is there anyway of producing a similar list without the detail, just showing the field names.
Thanks

I have a form with a list box, which lists all those registered for a student orientation. I then have a button to an unbound report which prints a registration worksheet. This report looks up the student's name, test scores, suggested courses based on those scores, and various other information from multiple tables, assigns them to variables, then to controls on the report. This is done in the On Open event of the report.
But it was designed to work for record highlighted. Which was fine until now. Now I'd like to take it one step further and have it go through the list from beginning to end, printing the report for each record in the list.
Maybe I am missing something simple, but I can't seem to pull it off. The closest I can get is getting it to print the first record n times.

I am still trying to get a hang of development in access 2010.
I would like to design a form with a listbox or a combobox which holds all 8 of my reports (a table has all the reports), with a Print and a Preview view buttons. In addition, the user must be able to select if they want to view the report by month, quarter and the year in question.
How do i have a specific report print or previewed based on the value selected in the listbox or combobox and the date criteria.

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.

Hi,
I'm making a form where the contents of a field is determined on the contents of another field in another form. I thought an IIF function would work, but when I tried it the contents says #NAME.
I put it in the control source.
IIF([Forms]![Frm_NewBusiness]![Page4]![Child51]="NTU",NewBusiness_Date_Issued="NTU",NewBusiness_Date_Issued)
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Ben

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:
Code:
Me.txtAddrMainLine2 = "NAME " & UCase([Forms]![frm_OrderRx].[txtPatientName])
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 go to open my Access 2000 database this morning and the contents: tables, queries, forms, reports, macros...all gone! The database file is still there, and when I go to view it's properties, I verified that it is the database that I created back in April and not somebody that overwrote my database using the same filename.
Is there any technical explanation as to how this could have happened? Or is it undoubtedly the result of human intervention?
I placed it on a network drive here at work.
I kept a copy thank god, but the copy is a couple weeks old and I'll lose alot of recent data. I've put in a request to have them restore the file from when it was last used Friday.
Just wondering what could have happened so I can prevent this from happening again.
Thanks!

sorry for the title. i didnt know what to write.
this is the situation:
i have a form where it populates a table in access (ssmdata) from an oracle table w_ssm_data). this works perfectly.
Then the form read the hole new table in access (ssmdata) to update a specific field.
Problem:
If i open the access table (ssmdata) it is sorted by the flight fields. However, when the form reads the table in order to update the specific field the table seems to not to be sorted by the flight field.
More info:
The ssmdata table in access has many primary keys (flight, departure,arrival,caterer,frequency and aircraft).
If i take a look to the W_ssm_data table in oracle it is not sorted by flight and it is sorted in the same way the form is reading the ssmdata table in access.
example:
table in access:
flight dep arr caterer aircraft frequency
1 a b a 111 67
1 a b a 222 134
2 c s c 111 5
table in oracle:
flight dep arr caterer aircraft frequency
2 c s c 111 5
1 a b a 111 67
65 t h t 252 1
when the update step starts it reads the access table as it looks in oracle. but if i open the table in access it looks sorted by flight.
thx 4 your hlp again, max

I have a new job at a company that had someone else develop their Access application. My boss has asked me to print out all of the options in several comboboxes so he can have me either add to or delete some of the items in the list.
Is there a way I can copy all of the items in the list of a combobox? :confused: These comboboxes are not bound to any tables.
I hope I have explained this well enough for everyone to understand what I am asking.
Thank you in advance for your help.

Hello all,
I had just created a startup screen which I wanted my access database
application to open automatically in.
On the tools menu I selected the startup option and specified the file I
wanted to appear in the startup. I used a form for this but noticed that a
forward and backwards navigation box appeared on this form, which I didn't
want. As such I went back into the startup option and unselected all the
checkboxes (hoping that one of them might correspond to the navigation box - I didn't reallt read them). I then closed down the database and opend it up again.
However, now, upon starting I only get the startup form I specified, and when
I close it I can't see my other forms and tables anywhere? I want to undo my
actions but only File Window and Help are available in the menu bar above.
Arrggghhh!!!!. I've searched for them everywhere but they all seem gone? Seems like a disaster.
Any help on recovering my work would be greatly appreciated.
thanks
Adam

Does anyone know if it's possible to edit the contents of the "Enter Parameter Value" Box...for starters, I'd like to delete the phrase "Please Enter Parameter Value" as it means nothing to most users of Access; also, I'd like to format the text that I've entered in the query itself, i.e. make it bold, increase the size of it.
Incidentally, I did go down the route of linking my query to a form but this caused problems as I want more that one user to be able to view their particular parameter value at the same time.
Many thanks

Hi.
I have created a database for an old office filing system in work.
There are 2 tables – Files & File Contents.
Table ‘Files’ has 5 fields: ID; Number (e.g. 1/03); Title; Status (e.g. Live/Closed – created a list on the relevant form using the Lookup wizard when creating the table) and Referenced To – at some point in the future all these files will be closed and this last field will show what all future correspondence is filed on.
Table ‘File Contents’ basically lists all correspondence on every file. But, some of the files have categories exclusive to them.
In the form ‘File Contents’ if someone was inputting new correspondence I would like the category lists to show just the relevant category for that file, i.e. if File 1/03 Training is selected then the 3 Training Categories will show and if File 5/03 is selected then the 2 categories relevant to it are shown.
But I don’t know how to do that…..
Should I create new tables for each of the ‘Files’ showing the categories or would one category table do?
I would be grateful of any help/advice you can give me.
Thanks.
Philip

I have two tables that have the exact same structure. They both started with the same data, but each were changed separately. (Two copies of the same DB, editted separately). I need to review the data in each record and determine what has changed or if records have been added. Is there an easy way for me to do this? (Note: Each record does have a primary key)

Greetings to All,
I have one table (tblLink) that resides on an SQL Server quite a distance from me. I have another table (tblLink_r) that resides in a local .mdb file. The tables are identical except for the data they contain and where they are located. Only one index (LinkIdx=autonumber) exists. I am making sure there are no duplicate indicies in the LinkIdx fields because I started the LinkIdx field in tblLink_r at 2100000000.
When I open tblLink (remote), I can scroll to the end of the 21,000 records relatively quickly - read: little latency. Queries performed on this table similarly show little latency.
When I open tblLink_r, I also have little latency. This table has 100 records.
I need a single object which contains the contents of tblLink and tblLink_r. I have tried a UNION ALL, but this query takes upwards of 4 minutes to complete which I can't understand since either of the constituent tables only take ~.5 seconds to call up.
I am hoping someone can provide a way to speed up the UNION ALL query or provide an alternate means to combine the contents of these tables.

I have a combo box whose row source comes from a table. I want ppl to be able to select from the combo box but I don't want them to be able to make any changes to its content (in the table).
How do I do that? I've fiddled around with the Lock features in the forms but I cannot get the right setting. Advice? thanks.
