I have a main form with several subforms within it. These subforms are navigation tabs. In the footer of the main form I have a textbox that I want to hide unless the 2nd tab is selected.
Details:
3 Tabs, 1 subnavigation subform, 3 tab indexes(0,1,2) tab index 1 the textbox on the main form(parent) should be visible. tab index 0 and 2 the textbox should be hidden.
I was thinking I could do something like when tab index 1 is onFocus then textbox = visible and vice versa on the other tab indexes?
I'm having trouble with syntax for using VBA on a report in Access 2007. I need to some hide 3 text boxes if one of my fields is empty in a table. The table name is: 'ALM-RESP' with rows grouped by: 'TAG NAME' and the field I'm checking is: 'Rev 002 Author'. I've tried having a rectangle to cover it up but I'm having trouble using the IsNull command and setting the visibility of the rectangle. Here's my code:
Private Sub Detail_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer) If IsNull([ALRM-RESP]![TAG NAME]![Rev 002 Author].Value) Then REV2BOX.Visible = False End Sub
Basically I'm having trouble checking if the field is empty and then setting the visibility.
I have a music database in which I keep track of my CDs and how many times I've listened to them. I have a report that uses grouping to show me the total listens for each artist for each year - the totals are in a group footer, with nothing in the detail section of the report. It looks something like this:
The first line is the column header showing years (last 2 digits for space reasons).
The second and subsequent lines are created in the group footer section, first is the artist name, then the Sum of listens for all titles by that artist in the year given ([Sum of Listens1994]).
This report works perfectly.
Here's what I want to do, and I can't get it to work:
In the above lines of data, let's say that the earliest title for BAND1 is from 1975, and the earliest title for BAND2 is from 2001. My yearly counts start in 1994. Therefore, there were listens for BAND1 prior to 1994, but there weren't any listens for BAND2 prior to 2001.
GOAL: Instead of showing "00" on the BAND2 line for years 1994-2000, I want them blank.
I've put a conditional format code in OnFormat for the group footer section, telling Access to turn visibility off for the text box control ([Sum of Listens1994] etc) if the [Earliest] field (which contains 2001) is greater than the year being displayed (1994 first, and so on). This, which seems like it should work, makes no difference. Oddly, if I put a F9 code break on the If statement, it never breaks, which makes me believe the code is never even being executed.
I do have prior experience with controlling field visibility in forms and reports, so the concepts aren't new to me. I feel like the big difference with this one is that it's in the group footer section rather than the detail section. [Access 2013]
I am working on my DB for work and would like to display all of the report names that are listed in the Reports-Objects of my DB.
I would like to display a Form with two boxes. The left box would display the names of the reports as listed in the Objects-Reports. When a report is highlighted in the left box it would give a description of the report in the right box. When you double click on the report name it would open the report.
Since I am fairly new to Access could you give me an example of what I would like to accomplish? Your assistance is appreciated.
I have a report with a list of employee names (and other information). A handful of them need to be a different color (other than default). There will always be more than 3, so I can't use the conditional formatting tool.
I want to put a company logo in my report ( object/picture) but when I send the report via w-mail or link it to a word document it disappears. is it not possible for it to stay in the report.
In my report I have date fields that span over 5 years with different pull dates ex. 3, 6, 9,12,24,36,48 and 60 months. I have successfully formatted these fields using the conditional format by: Expression Is Date()<[9 Month] and Date()>[6 Month] for the 9 month field and so forth for each field. This has allowed me to highlight the field that is the next upcomming date. One report I have this works fine for, very simple report. In a more complicated report, I have moved the fields together and have highlighted every other row to segregate them this formatting does not work. It will highlight the field, but it will pull in earlier dates, from 2004. Is there another way to format the fields with conditions other than the condition format? Possible to do it in code similar to highlighting every other line? The example I followed was here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q210392
I will be out and about for a couple of days, but will return any replys to questions when I get back.
I am creating a report based off a query. My problem is that I am trying to create conditional statements within a unbounded text box. I would like to say: =[Field] where [Field2] = X. Unfortunately, I can not find any support on this matter.
however conditional formatting is simply not working. I have two fields on a report, the report is based on a query, and the two fields are called "ExpectedCost" and "ActualCost". I want "ActualCost" to turn red if and when it is greater than "ExpectedCost". I clicked on "ActualCost" and then clicked on "Conditional Formatting". I selected "Expression" and then put the following expression in the space available: [ActualCost]>[ExpectedCost]
The syntax seems to be correct; however it just isn't working.
I have a field on a report that I was able to make bold using conditional formatting. I want to make the other fields in the row bold as well if the value of the 1st field equals a set value.
I put conditional formatting on the Contractor field
EX: Field Value Is equal to "Estimations"
I was Bid Amount, Sq Footage, =[bid amount]/[sq footage] and =[bid amount]/[estimate] fields to also be bold if the Contractor field is equal to Estimations.
I wish to use the conditional formatting that if the date required has passed the current date - i wish for everything for that record be turned red when searched or printed.
ive managed to make the Date Reqd turn red but i dont know how i will make the other cells follow the conditional formatting from another cell?
My other Cells i wish to change to red from the Date Reqd are - Customer Code, Site, Plot No, Product
I am making a planner in the access 2010 report. I am showing which activity finished when but I also want to highlight/ shade the cell to the corresponding month on the planner to the right. See picture above. I tried conditional formatting with date rage 1/1/2014 and 31/1/2014 but it does not gives me accurate result.
I have a report where I read the value of a field in my query (a boolean) field, and if the value is true, I display two lines on my report, hide the lines if the value is false. Here's the code:
Private Sub Report_Page() If Me.Flagged.Value = True Then Me.Line102.Visible = True Me.Line95.Visible = True Else Me.Line102.Visible = False Me.Line95.Visible = False End If End Sub
This code works great.... except on the first page of the report! If I run the report in break mode, I can see that it evaluates my condition as "False" on the first record, regardless of the actual value in the field.
My report is based on a query that has some conditions in it, but, everything works correctly - except page 1.
I'm using Access 2010. I set up conditional formatting in some areas of my report. They're very simple like if a cell is between 0 and .4, then the background color of the field is red. They work just fine...when I click on the field. I don't remember ever running into this issue in the past. I've been reading potential solutions on the web, but haven't found a way to make the conditional formatting rules kick in when the report is loaded.
In my Access 2010 report, I am attempting to perform conditional formatting of one field based on the difference between two fields. In particular, one field is "Time Scheduled" and the other field is "Time In". If the "Time In" is equal to or greater than 60 minutes of "Time Scheduled", I would like to format it to be red font. If it is less, I would like to format it to be green font.how I can conditionally format to do this?
I am trying to add conditional formatting to a several fields in a report. So far i can use the contional formatting to set a field called [colour] to set that field to red and bold. But i believe I need to use an Expression for all fields, so I can make all fields that = red go red. I have used the the expression:
I have master and child fields in my query, and in my report I have blank controls where there is no child record to the master. I'm trying to set the section (Group Header and Detail) to be invisible when there's no value in a control.
However, as soon as I introduce an If statement to the VBA in a report, regardless of the event I put it in, it just stops working completely.
I have a text box on a report from the Control Source CSCS Expiry Date. The format in the table and query and report is Short Date. The Text Format is Plain Text.
I have named the text box txtCSCSExpiryDate. I would like to make the background red when the date is 01/04/2013. I have ensured the text box back style is normal.
I am using expression [txtCSCSExpiryDate]=#01/04/2013#
And in case it was the Control Source: [CSCS Expiry Date]=#01/04/2013#
I also tried: [CSCS Expiry Date]<Date() [txtCSCSExpiryDate]<Date()
I applied the formatting each time, tried closing and re-opening the database. Changed the background format colour to green instead of red and even restarted my computer and it just stays exactly the same.
I've just noticed something else. I have a screen only button on my report header with
The expression On Click you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: A problem occurred while Employee Details was communicating with the OLE server or ActiveX Control.
Is this linked to my formatting not working?
I've just checked and on my 5 reports all of the print buttons are giving me this error! (I added the button as they are part of a navigation form menu which only shows report view, I am editing in the original report design view though.) They were working yesterday! Is it because I compacted and repaired the database?
I am playing with a report. Crosstab report works, but I would like to print check mark if value is "X". Other values are "A" and "E" and they need to remain as they are.
I cannot get this code to run in access 2010. It shows no missing references, but errors that Object required.
Dim wshShell, btn Set wshShell = WSCript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") btn = wshShell.PopUp("Filter data wil be removed.", 2, "Data Unfilter:", &H4 + &H20) Select Case btn
We have a ms graph object in the report. All the programming code relating to it is perfect and the graph displays correct too. But in some circumstances, the graph displays with different mold than it should be.
When we preview it in a single base, it works fine. Sometimes, in this way too the graph has a display error.
I have used the maximum potential solution to this, but all failed in vain.
1. Setting delays and refreshing the form and re-querying the graph data 2. Created a new database and imported all the objects and tried to run 3. Compact and repair database 4. Tried with re-creating the report from scratch.
why this type of error display is coming up with the ms graph object.
I have a series of reports that are built to replicate the order forms of our suppliers. On each I have a text box for Air Freight that I only want visible when the airfreight ID is ticked.
I have this working fine using an if statement on the Load Event of the reports. However when I use the OutputTo command in VBA it seems to bypass the Load Event. Any event that is triggered using OutputTo.
I have also tried setting the .visible in VBA but can't get the coding to work as I am using a variable report name depending on the SupplierName and when I try to use the Reports! nomenclature it will not accept the Report name being a variable (ie. Reports!ReportName![Airfreight].Visible where ReportName is a variable).
I have a report which I would like to apply conditional formatting on multiple fields. I would like the conditional formatting to be based on two types of criteria
First criteria would be contracts that start with the year 2014. I used the following expression which worked - InStr(1,[ContractNr],"2014" AND [DirectorInCharge]= "Joseph Steinbok" or "Adam Godson")
To this expression I would also like to highlight fields which contracts start with 2014 AND have a particular Director assigned to it. For this I used the following expression - And [DirectorInCharge]="Name"
On their own, both expressions are working but I want to combine them. How do I do this? I've tried the following - InStr(1,[ContractNr],"2014" AND [DirectorInCharge]= "Name") but then nothing is highlighted. I also tried InStr(1,[ContractNr],"2014") AND [DirectorInCharge]= "Name" - in this instance EVERY record was highlighted.
