Reports :: Changing Visible Property Of Blank Image Fields In A Report
Dec 8, 2014
My student is doing a project on question paper generation in which he selects questions from each lesson needed and also some of these questions have images associated with them. So, if these questions are selected, the image control in the report displays it.
If there is no image, the space for the control is left in tact. I tried changing the visible property for the image control in the Detail_Format event procedure. But this code is not reached at all and the space is still left. I am not storing the image directly in the field but its path in a text field.
I want that the space occupied by the image control removed. I tried the suppression thing but obviously it did not work.

I have a form that I would like to update a picture on using VBA. The source of the picture path is in part a query that is not bound to the form. So far I have the following code that is pretty much working, but with a couple flaws.
Code:
Private Sub Form_Current()
LoadDefaultPicture
End Sub
Sub LoadDefaultPicture()
Dim db As DAO.Database
[Code] ....
This is working. However, when I change the record the picture flashes the current picture once and then loads the new picture. It is like it reloads the current picture then loads the new one. I'm hoping there is a way to get rid of the flash.
Also, the code fails here:
strDefaultPictureName = rs.Fields("AttachmentName")
When the query does not return a record. I can definitely fix this by adding an if statement to check for a record, but I'm kind of perplexed at why it is failing at that line. I would expect it to assign an empty string to that variable name and then fail on the next command where I try and set the ".Picture" property of the image.

I have a database that I use for keeping track of clients and printing invoices using a form/sub-form and report/sub-report. I want an image to be visible on my sub-report when I choose Received Payment in my sub-form. Right now I have my image set to visible = no.

I have a database used for several product lines. Depending on the product line selected, I need to add an image to my report as the header for it. I need to store the images (there are only 3) in the database and cannot have an external link to them. Have been trying to figure out the best way to do this and I am finding both OLE Objects and Image Objects.

I have a couple of fields on my form (Resolution Type, Date Closed) that I want to display only if the Status field has Closed as its selection for each record. I initially set the Visible parameter of both the type and closed fields to False and I reset them to visible by checking for open/closed with an afterupdate event. This works great for the first record but...subsequent entries display those 2, regardless.
I know just enough regarding events to struggle my way through on some things but more advanced field, record level and form level events are beyond my experience level.
Can anybody offer any advice on how to get those two fields to toggle visible/invisible when scrolling through the records?
With that said, does anyone have a link to a post/website referencing this subject?
Thanks in advance,
Mike

I have a report based on a query. Sometimes some of the fields on the report are blank because the information is not available. Is there a way to not show the blank fields on the report and to move the next field up into the space?
I have tried using Is Not Null on the query criteria but if any one field is null it doesn't show any of the others on the report.
I have currently got it so that the height is set to 0 and can shrink = yes and this seems to work but the field is still there (although hidden) - I would rather it was removed completely if it is blank as I am hoping eventually to make the output for each field show on a PowerPoint presentation and I don't want blank slides which I think this solution might do??

I have stumbled across an issue in my report involving the Report.SourceObject property. The section of the report contains a subreport that needs to change dynamically to display the report that relates to the corresponding test. When trying to change the subreports.Sourceobject property I get the error Run-time error 2191: You cant set the Source Object Property in the print preview or after printing has started.This is very clear to me what the limitation is, however I was wondering if there was some way around this.
I have currently tried creating multiple subreports that are stacked on each other with visible property set to false. Then I change the specific subreport visible property base of a select. This worked, but was extremely hard on the machine and printer as there is about 15 different possible subreports.
Secondly I have tried exporting it to RTF and just manually copying and pasting the tables. The down side with this is all the formatting and work I have put into the report as a whole goes out the window so if possible would like to avoid this situation as well.

On my switchboard form, I have a check box which the user can check to make a text box (which appears in several different reports) visible and uncheck to make it invisible. The text box in the reports has the same name on all of them.
I am having trouble making this work.
I can think of two solutions, but haven't had success with either yet.
1. I could simply change the visible property of the report(s) control from the form. This works if the report is open, but throws an error if the report is not open.
Code:Public Sub showNumOrgsInReportCB_AfterUpdate()If Me!showNumOrgsInReportCB.Value = 0 ThenReports![publishZipR]![numOrgsF].Visible = FalseElseReports![publishZipR]![numOrgsF].Visible = TrueEnd IfEnd Sub
Is there a property or function I can use to test whether the report is open before I set the text box visibility?
2. Alternatively, a less elegant solution would be to run an event procedure to close all open reports. This would eliminate that issue, but I haven't gotten the code to work yet:
Code:Public Sub showNumOrgsInReportCB_AfterUpdate() Dim rpt As Report ' Enumerate Reports collection.For Each rpt In ReportsDoCmd.Close rpt.nameNext rptEnd Sub
This line:
DoCmd.Close rpt.name
throws a Run-time Error '13', Type mismatch.
How do I fix that?
I'm open to better ideas!
Thanks

I have a report (Access 2007) with subreports that is being exported to pdf. It all works fine on PC except for on a virtualbox and a laptop. When the user exports the report to pdf, it leaves some subreports blank! If the report is opened in the DB it pulls data as it should and all looks fine.
In the report, the missing data is from 4 subreports in the same top section of the report where a 5th subreport also resides. Subreport 5 is displayed OK. There is no dynamic formatting nor filtering in the reports.
These two machines had to have the 2007 Microsoft Office Add-in: Microsoft Save as PDF installed for the PDF export to work at all. Both machines are up-to-date on the latest windows updates. The virtual box runs XP while the laptop runs Windows 7.
This is the strangest error I have ever encountered as it only partially fails and it cannot be replicated on a regular PC.

I have a report with a number of calculated fields, and information that is pulled from the form that calls the report. Pulling the information is done in the Report_Load() event by setting the report.txtBox = Form.txtBox. When I open the report in acPreview all the calculated fields are populated as they should, and when I open the report in acNormal mode (which is what I want) the calculated fields remain blank.

On open I change the Picture property of an image control to another image. I do it 2 places. Access crashes on the first change or on the second. In about 50 % of the cases.

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 a form with a Yes/No checkbox. Sometimes a data entry person will use this, sometimes an associated report is printed and a technician in the field will be required to fill check the box by hand and return the report for data entry. what I have tried to format the check box, if the box isn't already checked, I can't get it to show up clearly on the printed report. It's set to Visible, width 6pt, solid, black, always display, yet it still is barely visible. Ive tried increasing the grid line thicknesses, making it shadowed, nothing seems to work. Is there anything I can do?

I've accomplished some simpler things like hiding fields based on the data in another field but nothing very complex. To the point: I have a report that shows data in both rows and columns, the report has a 7 columns, 3 of which could or could not contain data other than zero, in which case the column is not displayed. The problem I have is that it could be any of those three at any given time depending on what data is available for that report and what the user wants to see. Basically, if a given company has no data regarding column "A", then column A is hidden, but the main grouping is done through rows so all companies contain at least 0 for all columns (what I did is that, if a field sums the whole column returns 0, then the column is not visible). What I need to get working is the second part of this, have the columns rearrange themselves depending on which column is hidden (it could be that all 3 are hidden). How could I make this work? (btw, autoshrink is not usefull for this since it only shrinks vertically, not horizontally).

I have an Access 07 report, and when viewing the report I'd like to have some checkboxes visible based on their value. In other words, I need the checkbox to be visible if it's checked and not visible if it's not. I have the following in the OnLoad event of the report;
Me.Checkbox.Visible = Me.Checkbox.Value
This works fine in print preview but makes no difference in normal view, the checkboxes are visible regardless of value. I'd like to keep normal view if possible.

I am running Access 2013. I have created a report where the tables are linked to a SQL DB
I am trying to run a sales report that includes an stored image.
I am adding an Image and then using the control source to look up the 'filepath' stored in the DB. When I run the report on screen all the images are showing but when I try to print it (including exporting to PDF or XPS) and Print Preview only 2 of the 9 images print per page. The images are around 2-4 Mb.
I'm guessing its to do with the files sizes but cannot do anything about the size.

I have a form with a subform on it, if the user clicks a control on the subform I want to set the subforms visible property to = False.
I have tried Me!Subform.visible=False and Form!Subform.Visible=False but neither are working, I think i have to set focus back to the main form before I can set the visible property of the subform.
