Reports :: Automatically Export Report As PDF?
Apr 8, 2013
Relatively speaking, I've got a pretty simple database. The presenters at our community radio station fill out a form of what song they play and this (along with the system time) is stored in a table.
I have a wildcard query to bring up all entries from a certain date and at present, I export a report of this by hand on a Saturday for everyday of the previous week - but I want to automate this?!
I can change the query to be a standard one to just bring up entries for today. I then, somehow, need to automatically export a report of this query as a PDF at midnight every night into a certain folder with the file name being today's date.

Recently I set up a button to export a report automatically to Excel using the following code: DoCmd.outputTo acOutput Report, "Report1", acFormat.xls, "J:Insurance DeptReport1.xls", True.This works great, however I was wondering 2 things:
1. How do you set up to transfer multiple reports using the same button. EG I have reports named Report2, Report3, etc how do I add these to the code to export as well?
2. Is it possible to have them transfer to the one file but different sheets. EG Report1 would go to sheet1, Report2 to sheet 2, report3 to sheet 3 and so on?

I have a multi-field search form with a tickbox that is tied to 2 queries that is tied to 2 reports. The form works great and I get all the results I want, but my report doesn't display on my monitor, it simply prints up! How can I get it to stop doing this and show only on my screen?
My code on the "run search" button is:
If Me.[OptionalCheckBox]=True Then
DoCmd.OpenReport "rptReport1" acViewNormal, acWindowNormal
Else
DoCmd.OpenReport "rptReport2" acViewNormal, acWindowNormal

Exporting report to PDF works sort of easy. But how does one design the layout of the report, to make it look good on "exported excel files"?

I made a report that have 'txtRemarks' field, I just want to get remarks automatically in 'txtRemarks' field based on the other field in report. that is why I used a function like below:
Code:
Private Function Estd_Remarks(Estd_Point As Long) As String
If Me.Estd_Point < 20 Or Me.Estd_Point = 0 Then
Estd_Point = "Earlier Established"
Esle
Estd_Point = "OK"
End If
Estd_Remarks = Estd_Point
End Function
And I wrote in properties 'On Format' event this code below:
Code:
Private Sub Detail_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer)
If Estd_Remarks = "Ok" Then
Me.txtRemarks = "Ranked & Sortlisted"
Else
Me.txtRemarks = "Estd_Remarks"
End If
End Sub
When preview the report then it shows
Compile error
Argument optional

Hi -
I have a client that would like to export an news email list from their Access database into an SQL database that we use to send newsletter emails.
Does anyone know of a simple way to;
a: Export a table of data from Access to a csv file automatically.
b: have an SQL database look for a updates to the csv and import all - or all new data into a table in SQL
Any tips would be grateful - I know the task here sounds over complicated but my client does not have the budget to redesign their Access database into SQL, I have CRON running on the same server as the Access database, this could be a handling method for the automation, but I'm not sure if again I am over complicating things here myself, and Access / SQL have the capabilities of doing these things independantly.
Many thanks for reading.

I have a simple and small database having only one table. I want the data table to be exported in a spreadsheet format automatically at the end of the month. Is there any code or function to do that?

I have this database with almost 10 reports (one report per table) that you can export or print. But I would like to have a button to export or print ALL the reports. Because when I try to build a report with all columns, access won't let me and suggests that I try with fewer columns or fields.
So naturally (after cursing and bursting with rage) I can only think of the solution to make a button that exports or prints all the reports.
My database is created with point and click actions from my side.

Is there a way via code in a module to automatically create a snapshot of a report, save it in a specifed folder location in the code and save it as the current date as the file name when a button is clicked.
I'm looking on how to do this as I have many reports to create, move to an intranet folder and then name it to the current date. It will save me lots of time if this can be done automatically.
I am using MS Access 2000 and the folder location will be on my hard drive.
Thanks
Aden

I have some code below that exports a report to PDF.
It works fine, I just want to know if it's possible to export the PDF without saving it? I can't seem to find anything on my search about it.
Code:
'Open Report From Query
DoCmd.OpenReport "rpt_BLT_PrintReport", acViewPreview, Me.Filter
'Output Form to PDF
Dim strUserName As String, strPath As String
strUserName = Environ("username")
strPath = "C:Users" & strUserName & "DocumentsPoliceReport.pdf"
DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, "rpt_BLT_PrintReport", acFormatPDF, strPath, True
'Close Report
DoCmd.Close acReport, "rpt_BLT_PrintReport"

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.

I have created a report that includes 4 subreports. The subreports are displaying survey results from 4 different survey channels. New survey data is added to the tables monthly so the subreports will grow in size. Is there a way to have the subreports automatically resize and push down the subreport below? Currently what is happening is a subreport will grow and the additional data disappears underneath the next subreport. Is there a better way to create a report that displays information from multiple reports that will change in size?

Ok.
I have a database. I have a report. I want to batch export this report to either html/xml/rtf files. However, at present, the problem is that by default, I can batch export to html but it will produce a sequential list of files with the suffix page 1; page 2; etc.
I want to batch export to html/xml/rtf but name the output files based on an field within the database. (I have a field that is called filename, and would like to replicate this in the output reports)
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
:)

It only happens once in a while a few times in a row and then, without changing anything, it's all fine again. It does happen on other pcs as well. (It happens on Office10 and Office13)
I'm not exporting tons of data to excel just two normal-sized querys.
This is some of the VBA code:
Code:
Set qdf = CurrentDb.CreateQueryDef(tmpAbfrageLehrgaenge, SQL_Lehrgaenge)
Set qdf2 = CurrentDb.CreateQueryDef(tmpAbfrageKunde, SQL_Kunde)
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acExport, , tmpAbfrageLehrgaenge, ExcelDateiName, True
[Code]......

I'm trying to export either a report or a query to excel with a field name that has special characters "()". I wouldn't normally ever do this (everyone knows not to use special characters) but we're using this to import the excel document to a website, and the field name MUST be what they specified in order for the import to be successful. Is there any way to rename the field name at export, since I can't use special characters on the query or report itself?
The field name is currently DepType, but it must be
"
*Dependent Type
Spouse/Partner or Child/Dependent
(Required for Dependents only)
"
EXACTLY or it will not import.
