Reports :: Make Report The Same As Form And Sub Using Mail Merge

Jul 16, 2013

I am using mail merge to add info from my database to my word document template. I want to make it the same as my form I have set up which gives me a patient name, dob, GP details as head of main form then a subform (continuous) of their medication. When I try a mail merge it comes up right but only shows one medication on each page. I want it to add all their medications to the body and have the patient info in the heading. Do-able?

Regarding Mail Merge And Report Building

Jul 28, 2006

Hello:

I don't program in Access very often. I am using Access 2003, and have a client that wants me to create a Mail Merge application using queries against some access databases. Is this something that can be done in Access?

Also, they have some reports that they would like for me to build. Can I make the reports dynamic by setting up some sort of form where they can choose the specifics they would like in the report, and then having those variables determine what will be shown in the report? How involved would the creation of that be with say 15 - 20 variables to choose from?

(Thank you)

Modules & VBA :: Mail Merge From Report?

Aug 7, 2013

I have a report in my database with a button called "MailMerge".

My aim is that when clicked, this will open a word document, that has already been created, but automatically complete the merge based on the data in a table.

The catches:

1) I need to be able to ask the user the content of the word document from within access, and automatically populate it

2) I need to be able to ask the user who has written the word document and automatically populate it

3) I need to use a document which I have already created, because of various reasons, but obviously the merge fields can be updated.

Currently, I am trying to append the results of the query into a table, TBL_Merge and then use code to both ask the questions above, and then complete the merge.

Aug 30, 2013

I have a query that populates a report linked to a mail merge. There is an IFF statement in it that checks to see if a condition is meet. If that condition is meet some standard text results. Is it possible to put a disclaimer with the standard text.For example,

Code:
IIF ([Results]="Negative","Nothing detected" (the disclamer would go here)

I am not certain the correct syntax to use to insert "not all regions were tested".

Can Put A Button On Form To Create Mail Merge Letter?

May 8, 2012

I have a database for my business, which lists clients details. Within this, I have a query that runs off receipts (one customer, many receipts), as I run a private school and people pay me monthly. I use this query to run off a Mail Merge letter within Word, but it's difficult, having to close the db and open a Word document and then relink it.

Is there any way that some coding could be used within the db so that I can add a button and just print out that record into a mail merge document?

Mail Merge

Dec 28, 2005

I am totally new to Access and this is my first database.

I have a database for volunteers in which table A is basically a calendar and table B a list of volunteers with their details.

What I want to do is construct a report that will allow me to produce a mail merge letter such that:

1. One volunteer, with his/her information, is selected from table B and inserted into a mail merge letter. (The volunteer selected will change from letter to letter).

2 Certain days are selected from table A and added to the mail merge letter. This information will be the same in all letter.

I have posted a separate thread asking how I can make the selection of days in (2) above so you can assume that I know how to make the selection within table B.

How do I proceed?

If anyone knows a good example of this type of report then i will be extremely grateful.

Mail Merge

Apr 12, 2006

Hi, i have set up a mail merge between a query and a word document. My system is a system that processes transactions from an online cd shop. I have made it so that each cd that is bought by each customer is a different transaction in a transaction table, and each transaction is given an order number to group them. How do i get the mail merge to show all the transactions in an order on the invoice in my word doc because at the moment, even if i add two of the title name fields, they both show the same transaction.

Mail Merge

Apr 2, 2007

Anyone have a good online resource for generating a single thank you letter, eg. by way of a mail merge using MS Access 2003 with Word 2003? I know you need to write a form letter first with various fields that conincide with fields in Access. I have done this many times with large mailings but need to know how to write individual letters for thank yous, invites, etc.

Thanks in advance

Mail Merge - Please Help!

Oct 20, 2004

I just finished creating an access file. Here are the contents:

TABLE Customers - Includes email, contact name, company name, address, zip, city, etc.
TABLE Materials - Includes company name and material. Each record is listed as a company with a material requested. Companies are listed multiple times, as they are unique records because the materials are different.

I have Company name set up as the primary key, and it sets the relationship between the two tables

I have a Report fully working. The first page is a letter with the customers' mailing info at the top.
The second page is a list of all the materials this company ordered for the 2004 year.

The report pulls from a QUERY that comes from the customers table and the materials table.

This report is hundreds of pages long, as we have multiple customers who order many materials each.

My question is "How do I mail merge this report out to the customer?" I do not want to send each customer the whole 500 page report, but only their specific record that they should receive.

I do not care if I have to merge with Word, Outlook, etc. I just dont want to have to send these out individually.

I hope that makes some sense.

PLEASE HELP!

Mail Merge

Jan 17, 2008

Im after a bit of advice really. Im looking at building a mail merge facility, i already have one example where you have to select the letter you want to merge the data to.

The problem i have with this at the moment is i have allot of letters that are all basically very similar and the user might pic the wrong one, each letter is slight different and runs by a contract name.

Is there a way that the user can just select the type of letter they want, then select teh contract and then when they click the mail merge button access will know which letter to open.

Just looking for possible ways or examples.

Thanks

Mail Merge Question...

Jul 1, 2005

I'd like to set up a mail merge that pulls information from individual records. For example... If I want to do a pre-formated Fax Cover Sheet in Word, and fill the information in with the mail merge.

I don't want this to pull information from all of the records. I want to choose which record to pull the information from. First of all, can this be done? If so, can someone help me out with this? I have no idea where to even begin with this one. I have several mail merge documents set up right now that pull information from queries, but this is something that I'd like to do that is completely different.

Thanks in advance for any help that you can give.

Mail Merge Questions

Aug 31, 2005

What is the advantage of using mail merge?
It has been suggested to me that i use mail merge in the current application that im building. This is mainly because my client needs to send a lot of custom letters that will be different each time one is sent.
From what i know about mail merge you can only display information in a document in a flat format ie u couldnt have customer details at the top and then a table of all the orders/ transactions they have carried out below? is this correct?

More Mail Merge Issues

Sep 13, 2006

The folks here have been a huge help to me as overseer of a database structure.

I wrote earlier about name and address databases I am using. immediately after entereing one new sets of client data, I will need to send to a letter by Word Mail Merge. I want to automate this with a button in the data entry form to be pushed when data entry is done. In other words, rather than having Word pull data from Access, I want Access to push data upon hitting the button, into a Word document If I could automate a printer to this, it would further save me steps to get the ultimate letter out ( two letters, of which one is chosen per client).

I hope first of all that this makes some sense. Then I hope one of you Access gods can help me as my brain is wisted by all this thinking and trying...

Thank you again.

Mail Merge And Queries

Feb 22, 2008

I have a database with lots of names and addresses. For the first time I am trying to set up a mail merge to do a mail shot, my problem is that I can get the mail merge wizard to work fine with the underlying address table but if I create a query to do selective mailings then mail merge comes up with nothing. The query does work and produces the required list of addresses but when I run it through the wizard it doesn't seem to be able to see anything. Any suggestions? I assume that it should work with queries..

thanks

Word Mail Merge

Jul 8, 2005

I wonder if there is a way to link two tables or queries to a word doc for mail merge. I have an investigative memo and many findings associated with it. They all in Access for record keeping. Now I want to merge the main memo with all findings into a word document. The trick part is that the memo is also different so I cannot have a uniformed letter pre-defined in word. The content of memo is coming from Access too. I don't know if there is a way to do it or simply have two independent mail merges and combine two words doc in one (how?, hate to copy and paste).

Suggestions are appreciated.

Good day and night.

Mail Merge Macro

Feb 20, 2006

I am trying to create a mail merge macro that will automatically run when I open up my main document. I am using the RunApp command in Access to open up the main document. This is the code that runs the mail merge and it works fine when I go into Macros and run it. I just want it to run on its own. I know to get it to run on its own you have to use the AutoExec but I just can't figure it out.
Sub MailMerge()

With ActiveDocument.MailMerge
.Destination = wdSendToNewDocument
.SuppressBlankLines = True
With .DataSource
.FirstRecord = wdDefaultFirstRecord
.LastRecord = wdDefaultLastRecord
End With
.Execute Pause:=False
End With
End Sub

Any help would be great!

Hello Forum!

I heard this was the greatest help forum on the web so I decided to post here asking for help for a cause that seem helpless.

Here is my current predicatament:

I have a table that I would like to send through email to a specific person. I would like to send the email not as an attachment but as a regular email. I know I can create tables in microsoft access but by any chance is there a way to have an Outlook/Access Message Template, which takes the information from the table and sends the information to the specific person?
