I have created a report with the report wizard in Access 2007 that includes a check box. The check box is located under the label but to the far left side. How can I center the check box under the label?
View RepliesThe database is to track and evaluate call center associate phone calls. I created yes/no fields for multiple common errors (accurate/complete, Security, and client experience. and under each are @ 20 common errors)
(the problem is that I did not create a seperate table for each main category which I think might have made things easier)
Now what I am trying to do is create a report that allows me to show (or select) an error and have it show all the associates that had that error in a given time frame.
I already have a report to show all associates and all the errors that each had in a certain time frame. (so vertically I have associate detail and horizontal I have error detail).
is there a way, without creating 25 separate reports, to show all associates under an error type?
I am trying to set up a report and I need to separate the check box from the label. For example, the label reads CASH and has a check box. I want the label CASH to be the header and the check box to be underneath, but I can't seem to separate the two. How do I slide the check box down to the Detail row and leave the Header in the Page Header row?

I am writing a book, using MS Access 2007 (seemed like a good idea at the time I started, and the report that creates the formatted book content works quite well).
The book content is "per paragraph" which gives me total flexibility to move content to whatever spot in the book I might wish, simply by changing the paragraph number (free field, not auto-number primary).
To save paper (or pages) in printing (or viewing) the book, I have the report printing off para by para (as many whole paras as will fit to a page). This is fine but I want each new chapter to start at a forced new page, for "presentation"/appearance sake.
The relevant fields for the purposes of this post are:
paranumber
paratext
chapternumber
forcepageifticked (a Yes/No box), which goes with each paragraph and which I thought might come in handy, I had in mind to link it to a page break control at the top of the "detail" part of the report in design view, and which would be "invisible" except if the report formatting process had got to the start of any chapter, and the Yes/no box was ticked.
Upon opening a report (it does this randomly), the report opens and it is completelty blank - no lines, lables, or fields - nothing. However, when I click on an area, the group I clicked on will render and display perfectly. So when this happens, I either have to click every where on the page or scrolling up and down (if the report is long enough) will render the whole report. It doesn't do this everytime; about 25% of the time though.
As you can imagine, when other people use the database and this happens, they freak and just think access is broken. What is causing this or what can be done to prevent this from happening?
I'm using access 2007.
I have DB in access 2007. I have a report that is uses a select query to generate the information for the report. It has been working great, But however lately like maybe with in the last month, it has been causeing Access 2007 to crash. I am having the same issue with another DB that uses the same information but that information is imported in. both Databases have worked great up until two months ago. Microsoft states that it is because of the program. I have tried to repair the DB by using the Repair option. I am confused as to why this would be happening. I can create a new report and it seems to work. but I do not want to change all the DB on everyone's computer just for this reason. I also have two buttons on my report that utilize macros to close or print the report.

Also have a directory with .png files named with same 10 digit number. The txt field is on the report - I need to print the associated .png file on the report along with the 10 digit "txtOldState" field. I'm failing at pulling a png from the folder to print on report.
I have the following code of my holiday calendar however I would like to convert the month into uppercase. I know about the 'Ucase' function but I am fairly new to this and have tried to place this within the code but with no success:-
With theReport
.Controls("labelMONTH").Caption = Format(StartDate, "mmmm")
Can I display the weekday in a label on a report? If so, how? The record source for the report has a variable "StartDate" and I want to show the day of the week (Monday, Tuesday, etc) of this date in a label.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am making labels to stick on containers that we're shipping out. Some shipments will have only 1 container and some will have more than 1.Can I have it repeat a label if there are more than 1 container for an order?
For example:
Shipment 1 has 3 containers. The label says "3 x DM" and it will make one label.
Can I set it somehow to print that label three times? What about adding incremental text, e.g. 1 of 3, 2 of 3, 3 of 3?
I'm running Access 2003 and my question relates to delivery notes that are produced for drivers as reports. These delivery notes have a blank payment box for the driver to complete if the customer pays upon delivery.
As more and more customers are prepaying by credit cards, I'd like this payment box to be automatically filled with a "PAID" text which will let the driver know the order has already been paid for.
The delivery note is produced from an "Orders" table which has a "Paid" field whose value is automatically set to "Yes" when the order has been paid for.
I was hoping to be able to place a "PAID" label on the report which is only visible when the Paid field of the underlying query is Yes.
As things are at the moment I cannot see any way to put any conditional statement onto this Text/Label. The only options for the "Is Visible" property of the text are Yes or No.
I have quite a few forms and reports in a database that are pop-up and modal. I've also auto centered them so they do not jump all over the screen. However, these forms and reports are centering when you open them but move whenver you close them. I am hiding the database window, which usually means that it minimizes to the upper left corner of the desktop screen. These forms then wind up closing or relocating to where the minimized database window is. Is there any way to fix this problem so that the users see centered forms and reports every time they are using the program?:eek: Thank you
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an unbound report - which is actually a form for the user to print out if they need one. There is no data on the form.
Here is the code that is run when the Button is Clicked:
'First, I reenable the Access menus so that they can use those to print
DoCmd.OpenReport "TransitionSurveyPaperFormLEA", acViewPreview
When I open the report on XP/Access 2007, it works just fine.
When I open the exact same accdb with a Win7/A2007 machine, the report does not open. If I debug and display the error, a msgbox appears
"The OpenReport action was canceled."
I have other bound reports and those open with XP/A2007 or Win7/A2007 just fine.
It makes me VERY nervous that the same exact ACCDB in A2007 runs differently on different OSs (XP vs Win7).
I have a check box in a form (set to yes/no in the table) and when I generate a report I would like the check box value to show up as yes or no in text box, but I can't seem to figure it out.

On design, layout and report view, everything looks exactly how I want it. However, when I display it in Print Preview mode, checkboxes appear about the Project Name.There's nothing in my report to show that I have these checkboxes on the report. Where these could be coming from and why they only show in the Print Preview layout?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am receiving the following error when printing different reports to several different printers in Access 2007: "The section width is greater than the page width, and there are no items in the additional space, so some pages may be blank. For example, the report width may be wider than the page width." According to my co-workers this issue began immediately following the upgrade to version 2007 from 2003.
View 1 Replies View RelatedIn Access 2007 there a way to send a report to a file you create from the information in the form?
Right now my code for the command button is:
Dim strMyPath As String
Dim strMyName As String
strMyPath =" EBEBMainDigital Sender "
strMyName = "Permit " & Me.[Permit Number].Value
DoCmd.OpenReport "File Current Permit", acViewPreview, , "[ID] = " & Me.[ID]
DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, "File Current Permit", acFormatPDF, strMyPath + strMyName, False
DoCmd.Close acReport, "File Current Permit"
And that works perfect for sending the current report to the Digital Sender Folder... but I'd like to be able to send it to a certain county folder within the digital sender folder, based on what is listed for the county on the form. same for municipalities. and then, have it create a folder based on the name inside the form..... how to lead it through the path of the folder through the given information on the form, or how to make it create a folder.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI wrote a custom ActiveX Control in C#.NET using a guide (Google ".net activex control step by step", first link on CodeProject). The control is compiled as a .dll and registered in Access 2007.
When I place the ActiveX control on a Form or Report, I can call its methods from VBA and see its output just fine.
When I open a Print Preview, only the top left corner of the control is shown, the rest is a blank white box. This does not happen with built-in ActiveX Controls (e.g. Calendar control), which print as they should.
I also tried a basic ActiveX Control build using VC++ (the sample control created by the MFC wizard), and that displays and prints correctly.
I created a form letter as an Access 2007 report. I want the greeting to read, "Dear [first_name]," e.g., "Dear Alan,". The [first_name] field is bound to said field in a query. When I just use the [first_name] field, I get "Dear Alan" with no comma. I've tried to add the comma various ways:
"=Trim[first_name] & ",", "=[first_name] & ,", "=Trim([first_name] & ","), etc., etc.
Any addition to the basic field produces the "#Type!" error. I also created labels from the same query using
"=Trim([first_name] & " " & [last_name])",
and that works fine.
I have a report (Access 2007) with multiple totals and subtotals. However, one field, whenever I click "show Grand Total," always shows up all akimbo (out of line with the other grand totals), unbound and without the nifty little blue "grand total bar" above it.
