Reports :: Header To Always Appear At Top Of Screen?
Jul 30, 2013
Is it possible for a Header in a Report to always appear at the top of the screen - i.e. even when you scroll down the report?
I have a few buttons at the top of my report (viewable on-screen only) and would like them to remain at the top of the screen and the rest of the form to scroll if possible.
I have date picker which works correctly in form. When I put that form as subform to reports header calendar shows up but after selecting date on calendar textbox stays blank. Format of textbox is Short Date, Show date picker property is For dates.
I have been tasked with creating a database to log employee suggestions and then automatically present reports around the site. I have developed the database and it works OK and can output *.PDF reports, but I'm having problems with how to display these reports. My idea was to output the reports automatically as *.TIFF or *.JPG files and have them stored in a folder that the My Pictures screensaver uses. The reports (in fact, any site report stored in this folder) can then be shown on any screen dotted around the site when it goes into screensaver mode. However I can't find any way to output/convert to a picture file.
The other option is to create a webpage that rotates through the saved PDFs, but this isn't ideal as the PC users will have to load the webpage to display the reports.
In my report when the Group Header and the Detail section will not fit onto one page, it prints the Group Header on one page, and all of the Detail on another page. Is there a way to keep them together?
I have already tried the 'Keep Together' option in the Sorting/Grouping window, setting it to both Whole Group and With First Detail, but nothing seems to work.
My report has an empty Page Header, a Group Header, Detail, and an empty Page Footer.
I cant get the report the way i want it anyway but basically i have a subreport header embedded in the Page Header of my report.I can see it in Report view but not in Print preview and it does not print of course!?
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.
What I wish to achieve is to create a report that groups and sorts without the need of a header section as it is taking up to much space cascading :
---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ----
rather than :
---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ----
---- ---- ---- ---- ----
I basically want it not to cascade but do the exact same thing as it does inside its own header. (We need to dramatically cut down the page amount as a delivery schedule is printed out daily and could do with the page count around 10 rather than 50 ).
I 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...
Any way to repeat the Report Header on every page?
I had my header in the Page Header so that it would repeat on every page, but it did not have the CanShrink option so I put it in the Report Header so it shrinks when I want it to, but now it doesn't repeat. I was hoping there was some kind of code I could implement that would let me repeat the Report Header on every page.
Or is there a way that I could get the CanShrink property in the Page Header?
I can't get my reports' unbound field's to display the criteria parameter I enter when report is opened. I have done this before but not in Access 2010.
In my parameter, I do have a long string inside the brackets (e.g. =[Enter START Date "1/1/14" or Leave Ranges Blank to show ALL]). I am wondering if this or the quotes inside the brackets are causing it not to work.
I have a report, a phone list, which has two columns, see the attached file for a screen shot.
The Employee Name, Mobile Phone and Desk Phone text is in the "Page Header". The Data fields that retrieve from the table are in the "Detail" section. The whole report is 8.89cm wide. The two columns fit perfectly across a portrait A4 sheet.
When I run the report to Print Preview, I get the two columns fine, but the Employee Name, Mobile Phone and Desk Phone text doesn't repeat at the top of the second column. Is there some way of achieving this? I want the part I have circled in RED to appear over the top of the second column as well.
I would have thought there would be a simple check box somehwere that would be something like : "Repeat Page Header on multiple columns", or something as equally useful. Strange that this is so difficult to do, as am sure that this sort of thing is something that lots of people would want to do?
I create several reports for several different companies. Report data is the same but the report header data changes based on the company selected. All works well until I attempted to add their individual logos. I have tried many of the suggested methods both here and elsewhere to set the image path in Image.picture and image.control source. But I get "windows can't open file". Access 2010 on Windows10 insists on using the insert picture window when i select an image control. There is a drop down in the property sheet. I've gotten it to work a couple times but then its gone after restart.
The header data comes from a table [Company] which has the fields - name, addr, phone, path to image, and active(yes/no)
I'm producing PDF reports in a VBA routine in Access through the DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport.
The routine works great, however i have now a new requirement and i need to change the report header so to if Country X is selected in a drop-down menu, then only image X is shown on the report header; if country Y is selected then only image Y is shown on report header.
I was simply thinking to make this through the "visible" option of the image, however it doesn't work because i get error "report must be open".
I have a report where I number pages based on the Store (muliple stores in report but page numbering resets when Store changes) I do this by manipulating the page number field on the report by code in the report sections to reset it and to increment it.
Code:
Private Sub GroupHeader0_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer) Me!PageNum = 0 End Sub Private Sub PageFooter_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer) Me!PageNum = Me!PageNum + 1 End Sub Private Sub ReportHeader_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer) Me!PageNum = 0 End Sub
The report has a Page Header with various fields and labels and that's been fine however I've had a request to hide a field on subsequent pages (i.e. print it on the 1st page of each store then hide it).
So I added the following code to various sections, but can't get it to work correctly. The fields (label and text box) appear on Page 1 for the first store then get hidden but never return even though when I step through the code it is functioning 'correctly'. The GroupHeader code is performed but the fields don't get displayed on the report. I think is isn't re-painting that section but adding code to the Paint event does nothing, and in fact doesn't actually get run, so not sure when that event is triggered.
Code:
Private Sub GroupHeader0_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer) Me!PageNum = 0 lblMemberNo.Visible = True MemberNo.Visible = True
I have a combo box in the header area. The record source, Bound Column are set correctly ( I know because I tested it on a form ). In this instance, the user would select from the dropdown list, the name of a member of staff, based on the click-event, and passing the Staff_ID to a variable, this would be used to filter a recordset/recordsource for the report. However, there is no dropdown ( or arrow on combo - so no name can be selected ) ?
Is there a simple way, or special event, that can be used to turn off the visibility of fields when they are in the detail or in a created header for a field?
I tried using the report's Load event, but this kept giving me errors. Are any of the events in the detail able to allow this?
I have a main form (Parent) along with a subform(Children). I want to have a button that generates a report with the Parent information as a header and the items in the subform as details. In addition, I want the report to show only the children that were recently added not all of the children.
I have tried to make a login screen, I have also searched for information and tried some of the examples but, I just can't get one to work. Is there someone or somewhere where I can get information on how to build one step by step in simple easy instructions....(access 2003).
Also, how do you get access to open all the windows, tables, queries etc in full screen mode. I have expaneded them and shut it down and then reopened it but they still want to open out of full screen mode.
Thanks, everyone has been a great help in creating my first Access program.
If I have a report and it has controls (labels representing column titles) in the page header. Now when I print the report - if it happens that the last page has no detail records - but there is text boxes and so forth in the report footer. Is there a way to not display the page header on the last page?
I have a report where the last page shows the page header - and the field/column labels on the page header - but for which there is no detail records left to display - on the last page. There is report footer information that should display. It just looks weird because the field/column labels show at the top of the page - but there is no data remaining to print under them on that last page.
I'm trying to create a report where I can use a section header as a hyperlink to show/hide detail, but only for that section. For example, my customer names are:
Code: ABC Co. ZYX Co. 123 Co.
If I click on ZYX Co., I want it to show the contracts for ONLY that customer:
I have this splash screen, which welcomes all the users. It has an OK command button that exits the screen, and a checkbox that says "Do not show this screen again". I still do not have the code behind the checkbox. Thus I was wondering if there is a way where I could entirelly close or "get rid" of the splash screen until the user loggs in again. Because right now there is no code behind it, so everybody that checks it and click OK, leaves the screen. But they can still open it, if they select the "splash form".
The header in a list box is derived from the data source. I have a list box that derives it's data from a select query, now one of the columns in the list box/query is an Expression (Expr1).
My question is, is there a way of replacing the column header "Expr1" with a more meaningful header?
i have a subreport on a header of one group and sometimes has data and sometimes hasnt.I would like that when subreport is empty it doesnt show subreport header but I dont know how.code Me!subreport.Visible = Me!subreport.Report.HasData doesnt work properly since it always has data,just not on every page....
