I was wondering is this was possible in access. I've read material on grouping and sorting, but haven't been able to pin down what I need.
I have a combobox field that has 14 entries, beginning with 01 as the first two characters. What I'd like to do is change the order in which everything is displayed on the report.
For instance, show 07 at the top, then 09-13 below that, and so on...
I current have three different reports that are the same except for the footers. That means that each time I have a change to the report, I have to remember to make the change on all three copies. Is there a way to add (1) some custom text such as "Client Copy", "Please Sign and Return", "Our Copy" plus one or two data fields from the report query in the page footer (the data fields would be different for each copy)?Basically, what I would like to do is have just one report, but print three copies of it, with each of the three copies having different footers as described above. Is this possible?
View 14 Replies View RelatedI am using the built in Access macro editor to run a number of reports which are called for arguments sake ClientPartA, ClientPartB etc..My macro so far simply opens on a button click each of these reports and populates a number of text fields (all this is working fine)
Where my problem lies is I then want to export each of these reports to a central network location "L:Operations DatabaseProjects1042Outputfile. I have been using the command 'ExportWithFormatting' and have filled out the macro element with;
Object Type: Report
Object Name ClientPartA
Output Format: PDF Format (*.Pdf)
Output File: L:Operations DatabaseProjects1042Outputfile
Auto Start: No
Template File (no info)
Encoding (no info)
Output Quality Print
Now all my data is pulling from a form called 'Client' and the field 'RecipientsAccountNumber'..I thought I would be able to export the file(s) as PDF with the output file being written as;
Output File: L:Operations DatabaseProjects1042Outputfile Forms![Client]![RecipientsAccountNumber] & " - ClientPartA"
saving the form to the named directory as '300300300 - ClientPartA'..What in reality is happening is it's saving the file to the named directory not as a PDF and with the file name of 'Forms![Client]![RecipientsAccountNumber]
can't find how to add today's date to a report formatted as "August 30, 2014." I can't understand why that's not one of the options when inserting a date.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am using Access 2007.I have a report that has 2 subreports within it.One of the sub reports input is from a table (Work Order Parts) whose records have a field called "DisplayOrder". This is a numeric field that I use to enable the user to specify the exact order that they want the records to be displayed in a form or report...well that's the plan anyway.
I can't seem to get the subreport to sort on the "DisplayOrder" field.
I have tried to set the Property value "Display Order" to "[Workorder Parts].DisplayOrder" but this doesn't seem to make a difference. The "Order By on Load" is set to "Yes".
Here is the "Record Source" value : SELECT DISTINCTROW [Workorder Parts].*, Parts.PartName, [Workorder Parts].Notes FROM Parts INNER JOIN [Workorder Parts] ON Parts.PartID = [Workorder Parts].PartID;
What am I doing wrong?
I am facing an issue The Custom Macro Stopped report from rendering. I have report which is having two sub reports inside. The report is opening in the report view properly but when the ExportWithFormating macro runs, it throws this error.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an issue sorting the results on my Access 2010 Report. Here are the details:
- Report Record Source = "Portfolio Ranking"
- Portfolio Ranking is the name of a query
- The query includes a calculated field called "Impact Score"
- FYI: this is a web database (not sure if that limits what I can do)
I want to sort the report on the Impact Score column. However, when I view the query calculation for Impact Score, the "Sort" field says "(not sorted)" and it's greyed out, so I can't select Descending as desired.
I must use XP/Access 2003 to solve this problem for reasons I won't get into.
I have a report with a Group by on City.
The users need to be able to sort by Coordinator within that OR by Client Name based on a selection they make on the form that opens the report.
-- I have tried to set .OrderBy
-- I have tried to set .RecordSource to different queries with order by hardcoded in them (I only have 2 sort options fortunately)
Is there a way to dynamically change the "Sorting and Grouping" defined in the report? This seems to be the only sorting that the report is responding to.
I have a class roster report in which the Employees' names are concatenated in a text box. When I select to sort the concatenated names alphabetically, it is sorting by the Unique ID, which is a letter and four numbers. The letter used to match the last name, but newer IDs are random. So most names are still in order, but some are not.
The Employee field Row Source is:
SELECT [Last_Name] & ", " & [First_Name] AS Employee, tbl_AM_Operators.User_ID FROM tbl_AM_Operators ORDER BY [Last_Name] & ", " & [First_Name];
What do I need to change to have the Employees' names alphabetized on the report?
I have created a form with an option group with 4 options (date, line, description and observation). Each of these options are to be a sort order for a report that will open after the user selects an option and clicks a button. I am trying to code the button using a select case so that case 1 opens the report sorted by date, case 2 by line, etc. how to write the code for the sorting.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a report, rptAllCSCS which is based on a query qryCSCS2...
One of the fields in qryCSCS2 is Status and each record is either "Current" or "Not Current"...
My report is being viewed via a navigation form, so one of the tabs says CSCS and when clicked the user can see the report...
I have added a button in the report header which when clicked opens the report in print preview so the user can print the report. (Done with a macro in the On Click of the button.)
I would like to add a combo box cmbStatus which has the values "Current" and "All" in the report header. (Current will show only when the Status field = Current and All shows all records so Current and Not Current together). This will act as a filter for the user to see the corresponding records and they can then press the print button or just view on screen.
I haven't worked with filters before except when you specify the criteria in the query and point it to a control on a form which then opens the report... As this report is already open I'm having trouble, as well as specifying the "path" when something is in a navigation form being a bit tricky...
I have one table with some info about my clients, I have a form, where I must choose this clients from combobox and then after clicking button Print must open report with info about specific (chosen from combobox) client and some another texts that doesn't change. Final result must be printed report as invoice.
I can't create report with only specific record information.
I am trying to run a report based on a combobox selection. I have three different reports, each for the three different items in the combo box. I just don't know how to code it so when I run the report, it picks up the name in the combo box and opens the correct report. This is what my code looks like for the button that will run the report:
Private Sub Command7_Click()
DoCmd.OpenReport ("Signers Authorized for Check Writing"), acViewPreview, , WhereCondition = [BTrans] = "Check Writing"
DoCmd.OpenReport ("Signers Authorized for Stop Payment"), acViewPreview, , WhereCondition = [BTrans] = "Stop Payments"
DoCmd.OpenReport ("Signers Authorized for Wires"), acViewPreview, , WhereCondition = [BTrans] = "Wires"
End Sub
The problem is, that as soon as I hit the Run Report button, all three reports open up, so it is not reading what is in the combo box. The quotes, "Check Writing" , "Stop Payments" and "Wires" are the actual selections in the combobox and [BTrans] is the name of the combobox.
I have a combo box with the following entries:
Document
Other
Process
Validate
Verify
I want the list sorted so that "Other" is at the bottom. Everything else is alphabetical ascending. Is this possible?
What I have is a single table that I need to create a report from. It has vehicle unit numbers, dates of service, repair details and costs. I am trying to generate a report where I can select a unit from a combobox and enter a date range.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi,
I have a Form which contains a datasheet and I have some code which allows users to custom sort this datasheet. Another table based on this datasheet is then exported as a csv file.
However, the data is obviously not exported in the same order as the datasheet and it is quite critical for the application to be a sucess that it is exported in the custom order chosen by the user.
I have done some re-search, searching groups, forums etc and found the solution of having a 'sort column' in the table the datasheet relates to, I can then use this in the query that exports the data. My only problem with this is I had to manually fill in this sort column in the datasheet, once I had decided upon my final sort order. Is there anyway to fill this column automatically based on a row's position in a datasheet?
Many thanks in advance
I am using Microsoft Access 2010. It provides great filtering and sorting options in the ribbon for any object. But what if I hide the ribbon and want to create custom buttons on the form to do the filtering and sorting job? There are some filter options available in macros but are not quite like the ribbon's own Filter button. When the Filter button is clicked from the Robbin, a filter menu pops-up under the active field, which doesn't happen when I try to do it using Macro functions like "Apply Filter" or "Set Filter" etc. I want to have that big "FILTER" button from the Ribbon on my form.

A few months ago I created a report that displays the results of a long union query comprising a dozen or so individual queries, each containing an expression that yields a date (or sometimes date and time). I set the report to group by query and then sort by the date expression. Now for some reason that I can't fathom the report has always only ever offered me the option to sort the date "A to Z", I infer it thinks the date is text, but this misunderstanding has never actually stopped it sorting by date perfectly well. It worked. No problems.
However I have recently added formatting to some of the queries so that they just display date, not date and time e.g. Format([dateandtime],"dd/mm/yyyy"), and now the sort by date in the report no longer works. None of the sorting or grouping options have changed, but it now sorts just by the "dd" component of the date - so it thinks 21st June is later than 20th July. why?
i made a report based on a query. when i run the query, my results are sorted by Job Time Ascending, like i want...
when i made my report i chose job id as the main group priority in the wizard..
now in my report it displays the jobs in ID ascending, rather than Job time ascending as my query says..
i dont want to re-do the report it took ages.. how can i fix this?
I have a query that sorts players batting averages from highest to lowest. When I run the query just by itself it sorts it right however when I open the report based on that query it does not sort in descending order like I asked. What am I missing??
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am editing a database that provides the option of creating custom reports, where the user can input a date range of their choice and receive aggregate data for that time frame. Although all of the numbers in the report are correct, I am having trouble with a chart that I inserted into the report.
Specifically, if the date range requested spans 2 calendar years (i.e. April 2014 through January 2015), the data for January 2015 appears at the beginning of the year (so the chart x-axis is for Jan through Dec, and the Jan 2015 data is showing up in Jan (as if it was 2014, not the end of the given range in 2015). When I try with smaller time frames within a calendar year, it adjusts just fine (i.e. shrinking the window so just March-May is displayed on the graph).
How to adjust the axis so that it properly records the data range- so that it would start the axis with April and end in January, for example?
