Reports :: Output A Report To Multiple PDFs
Feb 6, 2015
I have several reports that creates price sheets for all of my customers. It is a report with multiple subreports within, and I am trying to create a process to seperate them and export them all into [Customer Name].pdf. I have tried to scrap some code together from various forums, and it has been unsuccessful.
For example, one of the reports "rptPriceSheetQuarterly", has a field "txtCustomerName", that feeds the queries for the other subreports. I would like to create a new PDF when that field changes.
I understand I need some sort of looping code that will cut the report up dump them all into one folder, but I am totally out of my element here.

I have a report that has a group sort and page break after each area. What I'd like to do is export each area as it's own individual PDF report (preferably as an automated process).

I need to know if exist the system in Access 2007 to output a report in word document including images. Normally the output is "*.rtf", with a quite good quality but due to the file type it doesn't include the pictures.

One of the users of my application, reports an error when saving a report to pdf by VBA code. She’s using Access 2013, on Windows 8.1.
The error is “error 2501 output to action was cancelled with access vb macro”
The VBA code is
StrReport = “RepInvoice”
StrDocumentName = “C:UsersMaryDocumentsAccessInvoice.pdf”
DoCmd.OpenReport StrReport, acViewPreview
DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, StrReport, "PDFFormat(*.pdf)", StrDocumentName, False
DoCmd.Close acReport, StrReport, acSaveNo
This error occurs at the OutputTo line. This code is part of an user form with a button “save as PDF”.
When this code is run, the report is visible as an example (as meant to be) on the screen. The code stops at the OutputTo line.
When I use
DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, StrReport, acFormatPDF, StrDocumentName,, False
the problem still exists.
I tried to save the report manually by Preview > Export > PDF. The preview is OK, saving as PDF results in the same error 2501. This may lead to the conclusion that this problem is not caused by the VBA code.
I verified whether user write rights are OK, and whether a default printer is available. Both are OK. The report consists of 1 page.
When this very same application is used with Access 2010, everything functions as expected.

we are moving from Access 2003 to 2013 using Windows 8.1 64bits. We used Leban's code and library to create and merge pdfs. C
Creating pdfs can be done with built-in functionality in Access 2013. But I can't find a way of merging pdfs. I've tried Leban's Dlls files but I am getting run-time error: "File not found:StrStorage.dll" do I need to do something extra to make Leban's code work on Windows 8 64bits ?

I've created an accounts package for my business using access 2003 and I'm just thinking of some time saving features.
We need to email our invoices to our clients.
Normally we print out an invoice, scan it back into the computer, save as a PDF and attach to an email manually one by one.
My package can now print to PDF (saving one step), but what I would like is to be able to print to PDF and attach to a new email (with the email address coming from the customer table) and possibly attach more than one PDF to a single email.
I know you can use
Code:
DoCmd.SendObject acReport, stDocName
to send a report but I would like it as a PDF as my formatiing is lost using that code and we normally send PDFs to our clients.

I'm using Access 2007 SP3.
Whenever I export reports to PDF, the output appears zoomed and clipped. No extra pages are generated as they would be if I'm going over margins, it's just the report is clipped.
The report looks perfect in preview mode, and it looks perfect when going to an actual printer. However, when using OutputTo to save it as a PDF, this is when the report content is clipped.
Here is the code I'm using:
DoCmd.OpenReport MyReport, acViewPreview
DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, "", acFormatPDF, "MyReport.pdf"
DoCmd.Close acReport, MyReport
I open the report in preview mode first so events are fired that show/hide various objects based on fields in the recordset.
I've tried reinstalling, and I've tried this on two different machines, one running Windows 7 and one running Windows Server 2008...both with the same results.

I would like to be able to add more than one scanned document and link them to one record.
If it is possible, I would like to have a command something like "Attach file" on the form displaying the record. The user could browse to find the scanned document and it becomes a link. The user could then scan and browse for another document, which becomes a second link, in some kind of list box.

I have a sales report that I generate each week based on a query, which relies on the input from a combo box on a form. This works great - but I have select each salesperson, one at a time and run their reports separately.
I'd like to have some code that will run through each person on the list, generate their report, create the PDF, and email (or save) the file.From my initial research, it appears I will need to utilize a List Box (vs a combo box), so I can select multiple salespersons for the report.
I've found a few examples of code to use...but a little lost on how to implement. I create a new form with a list box that queries the property table for the list. I then added a button to execute the code, and attempted to add this (with my control and reports names substituted). Getting all sorts of errors -- so not sure I'm on the correct path.

I have been an MS Excel man all along my career and I am a novice in MS Access.I have created a table, [Initial Customer Approval] which records data from a Form, [Initial Customer Approval]. Once the data is entered in the Form, I need to do some calculations based on the data entered in some of the fields in the form.I created 6 different queries for the six possible values in those fields. now for each of those queries I created respective reports.I placed a Print command button in the Form.
1. When I press the Print button it should open the report for the current record in the Form. (Currently It Opens all the reports simulatneously, with only one relevant report containing the current record; other opened reports being blank.)
2. If user presses the Print button before pressing Save button then system should prompt user.
Here is the code (Please note [reference number] is the unique ID generated for each record entered in the tabe through form):
Private bSaveClicked As Boolean
Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
If Not bSaveClicked Then
MsgBox "You are trying to navigate away from the active record. Please either save your changes, or press ESC to cancel your changes.", vbOKOnly + vbInformation
Cancel = True
[code]...

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.

I have a blank report and dragged two queries to it so that they are displayed on it. Both queries prompt for a Customer code. How do I get it that I only have to type it in once rather than for each query prompt?

I can't seem to find a way to SUM two seperate columns on my report. I've attached an example of what I am talking about. I was able to add the SUM feature to the 'Estimate' column, but it doesn't allow me to add that to the 'Plan' column too. The only options available are Count Records or Count Value.how I can have these both SUM seperately within their columns?

We have a database that has around 30 queries that are ran on a monthly basis. They all have unique criteria (but there is a crossover of fields that are used), and are all set up so they show only the previous month's data (the date is taken from one date field for some queries, and another date field for others).
We run the queries, and only need the 'count' of number of records that fit the query each month.I was wondering if it is possible to create a report that will run the queries simultaneously, and show the 'count' of the query results in predetermined fields.

I would like to ask about on how to display my attached pictures to my report. I'm using MS Access 2007 and I have a table names:
Projects - ProjectID, ProjectName, StartDate, EndDate;
Task - TaskID, ProjectID, TaskName, Pictures;
Picture datatype is Attachment and it is multi-valued field so I created a query to extract picture per ProjectID and to be used as a Subreport. Query results shown below:
ProjectID Attachment
11 tulip.jpg
11 hill.jpg
10 panda.jpg
10 shark.jpg
Now, I have created the sub report and linked it Project table. Result is the pictures add up vertically or downward where there is a big space on the right side, I want to have it from left to right or horizontally.

I'm trying to print out several reports from one button. I have created individual buttons for each of the reports and they work fine.
But when I try to amalgamate them it stops printing after the first two reports regardless of which ones are at the top of the list.
The code I'm using is ......
Private Sub Print_All_Click()
Dim strFilter As String
strFilter = "Business_ID = Forms!frm_Business!Business_ID"
DoCmd.OpenReport "rpt_Front_Page", acPrint, , strFilter
DoCmd.OpenReport "rpt_D_and_N_Suitability", acPrint, , strFilter

I am trying to link 2 reports so that when a user selects a field in the 1st report it will only return records specific to the filters. I have used the following code via a field in a report to return records in a seperarte report using 1 filter "BudgetPool". What I need to do is add a second filter "ContratorType" to the code to allow the second report to refine the records.
Private Sub BudgetPool_Click()
DoCmd.OpenReport "Budget Expenditure by Pool per Project Type", acViewReport, , "BudgetPool=" & Me.BudgetPool
End Sub

I have a table with some meeting topics, and I have another table with subtopics for each topic of which there can be multiple instances on no instances at all (let's say weekly updates if that makes sense).
What I would like to have on a report is all the information, all the topics, and for each topic, all the subtopics, if there are any. As an example:
Code:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Topic1 Description1 DueDate1 Responsible1 UpdateDate1.1 Comment1.1
UpdateDate1.2 Comment1.2
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Topic2 Description2 DueDate2 Responsible2
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Topic3 Description3 DueDate3 Responsible3 UpdateDate3.1 Comment3.1
UpdateDate3.2 Comment3.2
UpdateDate3.3 Comment3.3
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
What I tried so far is to make a query left joining the update table with the topics table and that seems to get all the data in one place, the only thing is that if more than one update is present for a topic, the topic will appear multiple times.
I then thought I could group the data into the report and I could ... sort of ... What I did is to add all the topic fields into the grouping header, that seemed to eliminate duplicates, but I don't like the results at all. First of all, the first (or only) update item does not appear on the same line as the topic, it appears below, and that would not even be that bad, I could live with that. The worst thing is that if a topic does not have any updates, empty fields are still present and they get shown even after grouping, as if being an actual entry. Even if updates are present, a blank line still appears along with the rest of the updates, even though it wasn't there before grouping.

I have a Table of Special instructions. Each type of a Yes or No Text Box. There are 13 items in this table along with the ID key.
Each Field has a Special Description. I used the Y/N format for ease of use for user input to simply select the applicable options.
However, I need the text description to display on the printed report, which is not the problem.
So i created a separate text box for each item that simply says; If True, "Description", else blank. And named each one sp1...sp14.
So now, I want to take these text boxes with the proper descriptions and string them together.
My formula is: =Trim([sp1])&" "&([sp2]) etc.
This does produce the proper text results, however, and oddly enough, each item displays on its own line rather than in a string.
I get:
SP1
SP1
Instead of the desired result of SP1 SP2
This seems to simple, and probably has to do with the yes/no format. I've tried with and without (), and using + instead of &, and to troubleshoot, I eliminated the " ". No luck. Everything is coming back as a single column.

I am trying to produce a report that shows a single record that has fields in multiple tables. When these reports we're in Word form they were about 7 pages long. I put them in access to be able to update the data in one or more than one of them at a time more effectively. But now I am unable to get them print out one at a time like they looked originally in Word form.

I have a large report that generates information specific to a large list of contacts. I would like to email each contact a .pdf of their part of the report. If possible, I'd like access to run a loop and do this in one button click. I'm not even sure to begin with this.

I am relatively new to Access. I am having difficulty summing up totals and bringing them into the main report. To be more specific I have two sup reports called WOExpenseTotalSubreport and WOServiceTotalsubreport. These two subreports are based off of queries that gather the description, price and qty of either services or expenses and then produces a "total" for me on the query.
When I bring these two queries into a report as sub reports I am able to Sum the "total" field in the subreport footer which works fine. What I would like to do is add those two totals together for a grand total on the main report. The two summed fields are called ExpensesSum and ServicesSum. It seems most things I have tried do not produce an expression error but the result is either #error or #name? Here are a few different scenarios I have tried both on the main report details section as well as the footer section.
=[Reports]![qryWOExpenseTotal subreport]![ExpensesSum]+[Reports]![qryWOServiceTotal subreport]![ServicesSum]
=Sum([qryWOExpenseTotal]![Total]) + Sum([qryWOServiceTotal]![Total])
=[qryWOExpenseTotal subreport].[Report].[ExpensesSum] + [ qryWOServiceTotal subreport].[Report].[ServicesSum]

URL...Essentially it seems like the format event fires only once with a docmd that has a where clause. If I print a single report it is perfect! Example one in the above post has a subreport, example 2 its very simply incorporated into the main report with no sub report.

I have a report that is a summary of multiple records in it. What I have next to the record on the report is a button.I have report that are labeled:
rptIncident Summary
rptIncident Report
and a button labeled
"open report"
I would like to click on the button and then it open the rptIncident Report with all the information, not just the summary. I will put a picture so you know what I am trying to accomplish.Is this a simple Onclick event with a where condition or what? Or does this go beyond to having something to do with VBA?
