Reports :: Data Correct On Report View But Not When Printed
Jan 8, 2014
I'm tracking some charges and want to report them based on month/year and an Early/Late (yes/no) flag within the query I created. When I wrote the report I grouped on mon/year then on Early/Late, then calculate averages. I then want to calculate the difference in the charges between the Early & Late rows. Here....
Now I want to subtract the 27 from the 116. I figured out I could assign the 27 to a field in the header and the 116 in the footer, that's the only way I could make them "stick". I then calculate the difference and things are great. Until I try to print it. When I print the difference is 0 because the group header & footer fields are both populated with the 27.
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 have two related issues with reports. That is the data shows in report view and then disappears. The first is the simplest. I have a report that has a query recordsource and I calculate totals and populate the report in the OnLoad event using VBA code. This displays perfectly in "report view" and prints or exports fine. My issue is that after the print or export, the report has no data in my fields in "report view". It is like it is reloading the report without invoking the OnLoad event. When I close the report and re-open in report view, everything is fine again until I print.
The second issue is related. I have another report that is a bit more complicated. Due to the number of controls (I use many text boxes to display my calculations), I am using 3 subreports to get around the limitations in the number of controls. In report view, the report looks fine, but when I scroll down to the bottom and then back up, the text boxes in the subreport sections are empty. The parts of the report not in subreports is fine. By using "Msgboxes" in events, I discovered that when I scroll down, the subreports close, then re-open when I scroll back up. Again, due to an Access limitation of 22 inches per section, the I placed the subreports in the "report Header" section. It appears that my problem occurs when I scroll down to the "detail" section of the main report.
I have a report which shows the results of two separate queries in a simple table view.
One set of data varies in size depending on the amount of records and the other is a fixed size and never changes.
I'm wanting to make my report always show the fixed size data in the bottom right corner of the page when its printed.
I've tried putting it in the footer section of the report but don't want it to affect the size of the details section and just show next to the other query results.
Is this possible and if so how would I achieve this?
I have a booking sequence. Sales representatives take an order on a booking form and then then click a button to draw up the related report. The form is showing all Booking forms, not the specific one just taken.Do I need an OpenArgs statement? I've tried that but can't seem to get it to work.
I am having a problem with the code in the Close event on a report when asking the user if they want to view additional reports after closing the current report in preview. Report Closes after the Yes/No answer is selected. If yes selected it does nothing. If No is selected it does nothing, This code works fine in a data entry form after changing the close and open commands. Using Access 2010
Code Using Now.
Private Sub Report_Close() Dim IntAnswer As Integer IntAnswer = MsgBox("Would you like to View/Print additional Reports?", vbQuestion + vbYesNo, "Yes") If IntAnswer = vbYes Then
How to turn a single long (page spanning) column of data into "snaking columns" or "newspaper-style columns," but all of the results are only available in Print or Print Preview. I am looking for a way to have the correct, multi-column, result visible in Report View on the screen.
The reports I am formatting will not be printed onto paper; they will be seen only on screen. The data will vary depending on the source table, some have records that are about 200 records long, and others are only 50 or so. The number of columns across the page will need to be dynamic depending the total number of records the report pulls in.
Im creating a database that we can enter jobs into.A job will consist of 3 seperate parts, Called "Trusses", "Walls", "Posis". They will each have a different delivery date and possibly a delivery time.
I am having trouble creating a report that gives me a week view, Monday to Friday, that shows what deliveries are on each day.The main thing here is there is one job entry, with the 3 parts. So there will need to be 3 seperate entries on the report for each part of that job.
I have a report which gets it's records from a table which has OLE Object data type being a "file.jpg". can I get the image to show in the report print view and also print it with the report?
Greetings, I will try to explain briefly my problem.
My database is for our job card analysis. The problem being sometimes a job card invoiced for the previous month is only entered in the DB after reports have been generated/printed.
My thought was that if I could put a true/false check box in the record table to somehow mark it as true after printing month end reports. Hence late entries will reflect in the following months reports.
Is there a way of marking all the records as "reported" (True) after printing the report?
Maybe I am thinking along the wrong lines. Any suggestions?
Dear all, im trying to display a message to the user if a particular report has already been printed.
I have an unbound form with 2 (unbound) combo boxes one named “shift name” the other “shift date” and a button that prints a report (runs a print macro) based on what the user selects in these 2 combo boxes. I have a table (named “Table_shiftdates”) which stores all the shift names & shift dates + I have created a new Yes/no field named “printed?”.
(I’ve attached a pic, which may help explain what I currently have)
I believe I need to somehow set the yes/no field in this table too yes (or true) when a particular shift name and shift date has been printed.
Then do a check when the user clicks on the print button in this form to see if the yes/no field is set to true for the shift + date they select in the form, if it is true display a message such as: “Warning this report has already been printed”
Other than that I’m stumped and not what I need to do from here, anyone please help me out?
I have a form that takes info from another form and then adds some from it's own data and then it proceeds to print a bunch of reports based on what tests were done etc. When I just print them (With preview) I have a function in the first report that prints (in its Close event) to close the form. No problem. I have a new slick little pdf thing that automatically names the files and puts them in the right spot etc. With this, after the first report is printed it closes thereby closing the form which needs to be open for the rest of the reports to open. Just put the close event on the last report that prints you say? I don't always know which report will be that last, it depends on the tests.
How can I check to see when all the reports have been printed and then close the form. Is there some way to have the form close itself after a certain time? Am I going to have to make the users close the form themselves? Let me know if this is confusing. Upon reading over this it does sound a bit confusing. Thank you for your help and patience.
I have a feedback database with 3 tables, one for complaints, compliments and other. They have the standard common fields such as name, address, date received, nature of enquiry, investigating officer etc etc.A person can have more than one record in the complaints table and that same person could also have 1 one more records in the compliments and others table. What I would like to do is to be able to display the data for that same person that appears in the complaints, compliments and others table in a report using a search facility by either name or address. This will therefore display the number of times that this person has made contact together with dates and the reasons.
I am a beginner using Access 2007. The custom written program that I am using has a minor glitch. The report has a subform inside the main report. In this subform is a form header, detail, form footer. The information that is entered into the main report that transfers to the form header, detail, and form footer works and that data is saved with no problems. When I go to create a pdf file from this report all the data transfers to the printed pdf except the information in the form footer. I have looked at the property pages and compared all the properties and they are all identical.
Below is a screen shot of the report in the design view. The areas circled in red are the data that is missing from the pdf when printed. The area in green prints correctly as well as the main body of the report. We insert comments in the comment section and also type initials in the signature section but this do not show up when printed in the pdf. The database saves the information that is input but does not print it. Not everything in the company has access to the database so this is the reasoning for generating a pdf so that it is placed on the company drive for everyone to see.
I have a rental database and I print several contacts for leases etc. what I want to do is have a unique reference number or something inserted to the report every time that it's printed. What I am trying to achieve is to keep track of which tenant corresponds to the report (Lease) printed by using reference number.
There is a seperate form which holds the tenants details and I would like to have a field on that form which would show the same reference number as the report so I can track which report was printed for who.
So I have a text box in a report that I want to pull in data from a field in another report, so the 'control' for my text box looks something like this...
=[Reports]![rptSalesReceiptSub]![Text141] (i.e Text141 is the data I want to pull into my report)
...the path is completely correct but when I run my report I get.#Name? If I run the report that has the data I want, it's fine (in other words Text141 has valid data in it)
I have data from a survey with qualitative responses. For a single qualitative question, I moved the ID & responses into a new table and categorized the response according to a bucket/theme, where each column is a new bucket. I now have 10 columns. Each response is represented in 1 or more columns. I used an excel formula to copy the response data into the column itself.
Example:
A1 // B1// C1 // D1// E1//... L1 ID // Response // Cats // Dogs // Elephants //.... Column 10 1 // I like cats // I like cats //(null)//(null)// ... (null)// 2 // I like cats and dogs // I like cats and dogs // I like cats and dogs //(null)//..// 3 // etc.
However, now I'm realizing that Access always wants to show data for all records, or at most I can limit using a WHERE clause in my query.I want to use Access to generate this report:
1. Section 1: Show all responses from the Cats bucket where there is data 2. Section 2: Show all responses from the Dogs bucket where there is data 3. and so on
I know how to do summary values, and I know how to do filtering that apply across the whole report, but this seems like more advanced filtering, where I want to see selective details differently for each field.
How to get this expression to work? It works by changing the numbers to correct date format, however, if the field is null, I want a blank to appear instead of "type"
My employer is using Windows XP Pro and Office 2003 (a few machines have Office 2010, but not mine). Furthermore, the machines are running the Japanese language OS, which has caused some comparability issues with my English XP/Office 2003 at home.
I have a form containing an unbound textbox, with the name MIS. The form's Current event has the following code:
If IsNull([[ResignationDate]) Then MIS = DateDiff("m", [NichiiGakkanStart], Date) + Int(Format(Date, "mmdd") < Format([NichiiGakkanStart], "mmdd")) ElseIf [ResignationDate] > Date Then MIS = DateDiff("m", [NichiiGakkanStart], Date) + Int(Format(Date, "mmdd") < Format([NichiiGakkanStart], "mmdd"))

The calculates (correctly) the Months in Service of the employee who's information is being viewed.
Now, I am trying to create a report which lists the employees by work locations. The above , and other calculated information, is to be displayed in the report.
I used the wizard to create the report, using data from two different tables (employee & location).
I need to display the calculated information above for every employee at every location.
