View RepliesI was thinking today if it is possible to fill Access reports based on a specific Word template? I don't want to populate a Word file with Access data as users of my app might not all have Word. Or is there another solution using a WYSIWYG editor where users can format everything according to their needs? That would be fantastic.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am able to use DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet to export data from Access to Excel, however, I want to be able transfer data into a specific sheet within an Excel template (e.g. Tasking.xls), that will then save under a different name (e.g. Tasking 20140429.xls). The other sheets within the Excel template contain pivots etc. so they will need updating during this process. The Excel template should just close down and remain in its original format.
This process will occur once a week so the dates will have to change accordingly.
I'm doing a project for my work. I created a few reports in Access. Some of these reports are simple graphic bars. How can I insert these reports into a word document template?

I've googled the crap out of it and the only thing I can find is mail merge...which as far as I can tell is used for creating letters and mailling lables or emails.
What I would like to do is click a command button on an invoice which would export company name, province and date, into an existing word template, save it as a new filename, and then close.
Thanks to some of the threads here, I have managed to automate inputting form data from a record into bookmarks in a word document template (a letter). What I am trying to do is to lock the letter allowing modification only to the form fields in that template. If the original template is locked (allowing entry only in the fields), the data does not flow through. So I was trying to accomplish this through the "ProtectedForForms" property. However, it does not work. The letter gets locked before the information flows through. Here's the code I am trying to use (borrowed from one of the users here):
Private Sub cmd_letWarn_Click()
' Check for empty fields and unsaved record.
If IsNull(occupant) Then
MsgBox "Occupant Name cannot be empty"
Me.occupant.SetFocus
Exit Sub
End If
If IsNull(propad_no) Then
MsgBox "Building Number cannot be empty"
Me.propad_no.SetFocus
Exit Sub
End If
If IsNull(prop_ZIP) Then
MsgBox "ZIP Code cannot be empty"
Me.prop_ZIP.SetFocus
Exit Sub
End If
If Me.Dirty Then
If MsgBox("Record has not been saved. " & Chr(13) & _
"Do you want to save it?", vbInformation + vbOKCancel) = vbOK Then
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSaveRecord
Else
Exit Sub
End If
End If

Hi I have a database and I want to basically use table fields to load into a Word template and I want this done via code, i.e a button....any help very much appreciated!
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi all,
I'm not very experienced with Access. I'm looking for a very simple sample of how to export Query results to an Excel Template document. Especially to specific cell references. Would anyone have one to share. I'm trying to get my head around the concept first.
I may have to use Access 2000 and later versions to run the database, so do I have to cater for both DAO and ADO?
Thanks in advance for any help

I have a template csv file which has comes with headers. I now need to export multiple datas from my different tables into the csv file. I thought I would open an instance of excel, open the query as recordset (in VBA) and go through each record and finally use appExcel.saveAs as a CSV file. The approach doesnt look like it will look. I have looked into the DoCmd.Transfer text method but I cant seem to create a export specification because my query requires two parameters (startDate and endDate).
Secondly it is a huge template, over 700 fields and I will only be exporting around 40 fields so there will be huge number of empty fields. If this was a excel file, I would write few queries and write result from one query into the file then skip required columns and then write results from another query but I don't know if its possible with Docmd.write txt.
I am using access 2013 (Office 365 Pro) to perform all of this.
i have a form and was wondering if it was possible to take some of the fields and drop them into a template word document from inside access. so as to create a button that when clicked opens up the template and transferes the wanted form data.
any idears how to automate this process would be greatly appreciated
thanks in advance john
Any definitive way of exporting a query to an Excel file and then saving it as a new file without saving over the original.
I've tried to remove any confidential info from the code below so it's not exactly the same.
Code:
Dim XLApp As Excel.Application
Dim XLSheet As Excel.Worksheet
Dim tmpRS As DAO.Recordset
Dim strFolder as String
strFolder = ("C:Profiles"& [Name] & "")
[Code] ....
The error seems to be with the SQL statement although that may just be the first error that it got to. I read that you can't refer to a Query if it has a criteria and that you have to write the SQL directly into the code.
I'm using the below to merge an access form into a word template (it's a starter for 10).
That works fine. What I need to do is save the word template as HTML so I can then upload it to my website.
Dim wordApp1 As Word.Application
Dim docPath1 As String
Dim fileName1 As String
Dim PageName As String
PageName = Forms!Frm_Page_Create![Page]
docPath1 = Application.CurrentProject.Path & "Merges"
[code]....
I am creating a db for my work place that records incidents that take place. I am a novice at Access but I have made different tables, queries, forms and reports and they all work.
I was wondering if there was a way to extract data that a user enters into a form and then use that to populate a word template *without* coding using VBA? I am really a beginner and not confident with VBA at all. I have read the forum and that seems to be an option (but would rather something else if possible!)
I am working in Access 2013.I'll be performing a series of inspections at a number of intersections for a small community. The data being captured is consistent from site to site and lends itself to a database application, and what I would like to do is the following:Use forms to capture the data.Generate a report to preview the output for a single record. I may ultimately decide to set the report datasource to a query.Attach a macro to a button that exports fields from that record to a template based in MS Word.The first two bullet items I can handle with my limited Access capability. Each file has to be individually reviewed and saved, and each file will ultimately contain an electronic signature.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have become stuck with an issue which I am sure is entirely my fault. I am trying to create/modify a macro for a field ([cx_ref]) on a report (Upholstery_orders), so that when a particular record is clicked, it uses the data in that specific record and field to open another report (works_orders), based on said data.
So far the only headway I could make was to create a macro that opened an intermediate form with a combo box displaying every record in [cx_ref]. I'm not a huge fan of this method as any user would have to either memorise then type, or scroll down thousands of records in order to locate the correct one, select it and then click a button to open the "works_order" report.
A macro (or code) that could take one from the original report, using the data in the 'clicked' box/field on the form, and open the second report without having the input the data again. Short of being able to do this, any way to simply export the selected field so that it appears on the intermediate form (without the need to select or type it again), be that in the combo box or in a box of its own.
Hi guys!
I have my word template set up such that some data is copied from the open form into the document and some data is taken from a table which is created from a query based on the content of the form (the record number). This works well HOWEVER (there's always a however isn't there :rolleyes: ) where two users click on the button at exactly the same time or within a very short space of time the query only runs once and either the database crashes (bad) or the document is created for the second person with the wrong data (very bad).
How can I make it so that only one person can run the query at a time (ideally build in a delay in processing so that the query will run for them when the first person has finished...failing that a message to say please try again later)? They will always be working with a different record.
I'm a bit stuck as to what to search for in the forum for an answer to this so haven't really searched.....sorry :(
Many thanks

I have the following VBA code that auto populates a word template:
Private Sub Command24_Click()
On Error GoTo ErrorHandler:
ErrorHandler:
[Code].....
The code executes flawlessy but there are three values that are based off check boxes set as YES/NO (EMPLOYEDATREGISTRATION, EMPLOYED and FRINGEBENEFITS). These values show up as -1 for YES and 0 for NO.
Is there anyway to add code to mine that would allow me to change these values before they are sent to the Word template?
Hi,
I'm new to this forum and it's my first post, any help is greatly appreciated.
I have just been given a big project of firstly transferring information we hold in word documents over to Ms Access and then using ASP or .NET I got to make this a searchable, more user friendly web page displaying the information from the database.
I have tried searching on the web but have not found anything that can transfer information from a table in a word document to a table in Ms Access, does anyone know of anything out there that allows this to be done without losing any data in the transfer?
I have tried saving the document as a text file and importing it into Access but it did not transfer the data across correctly.
Hello Access People,
I am sure this has been answered but i can not find it after searching all day.
I have a main form called "Main Form", then a sub form call "DPriority Assessment" on the main form i use this to filter the results, of only the data for one report shows and the results follow all works this far.
I am using a button to export the results from my sub form in to a word document, the data is copy over ok, but the page setup keeps changing from A4 to Letter, and the page changes from Landscape back to portrait, i have checked my printer setting and the setting in both word and access all looks fine.
I am not sure if some kind of code is need but i am not sure were or how to go about this. If anybody has any ideas i would be grate full or examples would be better.
Kind Regards
Alastair Lane

I have a Report that contains, among other things, Pictures & Check Boxes. When I try to export into a Word (.rtf) document,the Data exports just fine, but the pictures & check boxes are lost. Is there a way to export the Report into Word keeping all formatting intact?

I'd like to export only email addresses separated by ";" to a word document based on a result of a query.
Query gets build dynamically in VB behind the form as there are many search criterias. so user can eneter one field or many in the form to build the query. Queries work and i can extract and display the email in a report or another form, but now i'd like to export it to a word document or outlook (but i would prefer word).
Can anyone please give me advice how i should approch this issue.
Thank you.
I was wondering if there is an awesome way out there somewhere to take a record and export it into a word document, like a template and have the fields go where you want them to?
View 13 Replies View RelatedI currently have a set of labels that works flawlessly - it has 2 columns and 20 rows. I have a form that I can select which label to start printing on so I use up a full sheet with no waste. [working labels attachment]
The labels I'm trying to print on now are 1.25" x 10", as seen HERE. Since I cannot rotate the whole report 90 degrees, I set up the labels to have one column with six rows instead of 6 columns with one row (landscape instead of portrait).
I copied the entire label printing process from the known working report. For my new set of labels, the label prints great if I have just one record, and/or I start at label #1. If I want to start at label #6, it just prints slightly lower on the page instead of at label #6 position (which is the bottom of the page). [label at #6 position attachment].
