Reports :: Output / Print Results Of A Query To Text File

Dec 13, 2013

I have researched on here how to print the results of a query to a text file. I put the code in and I get an error on the openrecordset line. The error says "too few parameters, expected 4"

I tried the query in another report I export to excel and the query works.

I tried printing the whole table using "Select * from tbl_Customers" and it works????

Here is the code:

Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
Set rst = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("qryBell1", dbOpenSnapshot)
Dim fs, TextFile
Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set TextFile = fs.CreateTextFile(pathname, True)

[Code] ....

the query returns 6 fields for printing and can filter based on whether 3 fields are filled or not on the form - Date, Campaign, Status

Reports :: Using Transfer Spreadsheet Command To Output Data In Query To Excel 2010 Format File

Aug 18, 2015

I'm working with Access 2010 and am trying to use the transferspreadsheet command to output data in a query to an Excel 2010 format file. Here is the line of code:

DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acExport, acSpreadsheetTypeExcel12, "q_calldetails_tmp", "c: emp estoutput.xlsx"

It works fine and produces the output file but when I try and open it with Excel I get an error saying the format is incorrect. If I change the extension to .xls it opens with no problem but I need it to be an Excel 2010 format with correct extension.

Reports :: Where Condition And Output To PDF File

Nov 30, 2013

I would like to print a report file from a database into PDF format.Currently I am using a macro with a "where condition" to select the particular file which currently outputs to the default printer. Converting the macro to VBA reads as follows:

DoCmd.OpenReport "Receipt - full pay new", acViewNormal, "", "[ConsultID]=[Forms]![Payment Record Type]![ConsultID]"

However, if I do an output to PDF file as below, I can't insert a "where condition" to pick the specific file. Instead, it outputs the whole unfiltered report which is 12,000 pages and 29 MB!

DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport,"Receipt - full pay new",acFormatPDF,"C:AccessReceiptPDF.pdf"

How to combine the 2, i.e. have the "where condition" to select the particular report page, but output to a PDF file in a selected directory.

Output To A Text File

May 26, 2005

Hi all! I'm not sure if this is the correct area to post this in, but hopefully it is!

I have a Microsoft Access database, and I need to output the content of one of the tables in a specific format-the table contains a Name field, a Description field, a URL field and an Alt Text field, and I need it to end up in a text file in this format:

NAME|DESCRIPTION|URL|ALT|

Where each line of the text field is a different product, and the content of each field is separated by the | symbol (whose name escapes me right now).

Anyone that can help?

Output Data To Text File

Dec 13, 2004

Could anyone help with a simple answer please ?

I have an Access db that schedules the sending of emails with attachments.
I run a query on the table that returns all active users
I then need to create a separate file for each active user - in the format as shown below.
Each file is called "ddmmXX.epe"
- where dd=day,mm=month,XX=sequential number starting 01.
The file needs to be formatted ascii text file.
The file extension must be .epe

FORMAT:text
TO:{email}
FROM:{from}
CC:{cc}
SUBJECT:{subject}
ATTACHMENT:{attachment}
BODY:{Message}

All the fields within the {} are fields in the Access table
Each file must then be saved to a directory c:mailout
(eg C:mailout141201.epe)

Sample file would look like this:

FORMAT:text
TO:{harry@aol.com}
FROM:{Mat@abcde.com}
CC:{peter@aol.com}
SUBJECT:{Daily Newsletter}
ATTACHMENT:{c:mailews.zip}
BODY:{Please find attached today's newsletter}


Can anyone help - it would be much appreciated, as I am still learning the slightly more advanced methods of VBA.

Thanks

Form Data Output To Text File

Jul 25, 2005

:confused: I've created a form within our company database which will track hardware/software requests. I'd like to create a macro, or add code to output the data entered into a notepad file. Nothing extraordinary. I'd like for it to be like this:

Ticket: XXXXX
Employee: xxxxx
Reason for Request: xxxxx
Quantity:xxxxx
Part Number:xxxxx
Price:xxxxx
Shipping:xxxxx
Total:xxxxx

Those are the headings of the fields and x's denote entered data. I'd like to keep the headers and have the entered data as well. Is it possible?

Thanks to all for your help

Forms :: Open A Form For Saving Results Of Query To A Text File On Desktop

May 6, 2015

I have a BE database, that when opened, opens a form for saving the results of a query to a text file on the desktop. It works fine, if the full path is entered.

The problem is, I want this saved on any users' desktop. I did some digging and found the %userprofile% variable, which when used, gives me the error.

I understand this should work in both Windows XP and Windows 7, which are the environments the full DB will operate in. So far the "EXPORT" button on the form has the following for the code:

Code:
Private Sub BTN_Export_Click()
DoCmd.TransferText acExportDelim, , "QRY_ExportPublicComment", "C:UsersMark N. McAllisterDesktopPubComExp.txt"
End Sub

When I tried this:

Code:
Private Sub BTN_Export_Click()
Dim strPath As String
strPath ="%userprofile%desktopPubComExp.txt"
DoCmd.TransferText acExportDelim, , "QRY_ExportPublicComment", strPath
End Sub

the error occurs.

Modules & VBA :: How To Append Text To A Text File With The Print Statement

Jun 5, 2013

I'm trying to figure out at what point an error message occurs while a database is closing. This problem only occurs if someone clicks on the red close button on the top right of the screen when there are several forms open. If the user exists normally there is NO problem.

I am attempting to use the print statement to write to a text file to track what is happening as the database shuts down. Unfortunately, the open (print) statement, when issued, zaps any prior contents which precludes having a full printed record. I am hoping for a print syntax that would allow appending.

Code:
Open "ErrorReport.txt" for Output as #1
Appended text to the file to show what is happening in that event.
Close #1

The program, in closing, does stop with an error message that a certain file can't be found. But when I click on debug, the program simply closes. I have also commented out VBA references to the file that can't be found, but the error still persists .

Query To Output A CSV Or Excel Like File

Feb 13, 2007

Hi Guys,

I have 2 tables

tblXRFResults

ResultID
SampleName
Date
SampleDate
a few others not necessary in this

and tblXRFResultsConcentration

ResultID (many records linked to 1 record in tblXRFResults)
Concentration
CompoundName

What I need to set up is a query that will allow me to generate a report that will give an excel like format, with the column headings being the SampleName, followed by the CompoundName(s) from the other table and the "rows" will be corresponding sample name and concentrations.
I am sure this is pretty easy, but I am stumped!

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Reports :: Subreport Borders Cover Text In Print Out

Jan 5, 2015

I have several reports that include subreports in them, each one has a bold border surrounding it. When viewing the reports in Access, the spacing and layout is great.

But when I print the reports--either physically or to PDF--the text within the subreports somehow shifts left and up. Some of the subreports--by virtue of chance--happen to have enough extra space, but others don't and part of the text gets clipped by the border.

I'm not exactly motivated to go through the reports and readjust the layout for each one but if there's a database setting that I can change to correct it that would be nice.

I've attached a screenshot (where the layout is perfect) and a printed PDF (where the text is clipped) of one of the reports. The issue can best be seen in the Public/Private ZooMobile and Indoor/Outdoor ZooMobile subreports.

Reports :: Text Within Report Labels Different Size In Preview / Print?

Jan 12, 2015

I have always noticed that when creating a report, when you make a paragraph using a label, the alignment and size of the text/paragraph is always different when you preview the report than when you design it.

This makes alignment of paragraphs tricky, especially when you are trying to insert a bold faced word into the middle of a block of text by using a separate label.

I am using Access 2000

Reports :: Workorder - Print Three Copies With Each Copy Having Different Text In Footer

Jan 23, 2014

I have an old access database (written with 2003 but running under 2010) that creates workorders and I need to change a couple of the reports to print three copies with each copy having different text in the footer. I'm converting the reports from a old DOT Metrix special form printer to a laser printer. I have already modified the reports as far as the titleing and cosmetics are concerned and they print and look great on the laser printer. I have also added a TxT box that I want to contain the information on the report.

The reports are generated in a couple of different ways off different screens in the system off buttons, but I figured if I can get one of them to work I can replicate it to the others.

I have gone through the reports forum and have found a couple of solutions but can't get them to work. This is what I have found:

On the on button to print a range of workorders (it drives a query that asks for a starting workorder number and a ending workorder number) click from the from the switchboard:

DoCmd.OpenReport "rptBulkWorkOrdersbyWorkOrderNumberRange", , , , , "1"
DoCmd.OpenReport "rptBulkWorkOrdersbyWorkOrderNumberRange", , , , , "2"
DoCmd.OpenReport "rptBulkWorkOrdersbyWorkOrderNumberRange", , , , , "3"

Then I have this code but I'm not sure where it goes. On the report in the "on open" expression? not sure..

Select Case Me.OpenArgs
Case "1"
txtBox62 = "Shop Copy"
txtFld1 = [qryField1]

[Code] .....

Reports :: Output To PDF Different Than Printed Output

Aug 20, 2013

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.

Queries :: Print Shipping Labels - Hide Query Results

Jul 5, 2015

I have a button on a form which is used to print shipping labels. This button runs a Query and then a report using the code below.

Private Sub SaveBtn_Click()
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
DoCmd.RunSQL "Update BookInTable SET DateBookedOut = '" & Me!DateTxt & "' WHERE BarCode ='" & Me![BarTxt] & "'"
DoCmd.RunSQL "Update BookInTable SET BookedOut = True WHERE BarCode ='" & Me![BarTxt] & "'"
DoCmd.OpenQuery "PrintLabelQuery"
DoCmd.OpenReport "Labels", acViewPreview
DoCmd.PrintOut , , , , 1
DoCmd.SetWarnings True
End Sub

But I need both the query results and the report to not be seen. All I want to happen when clicking the button is that a label is printed.

Modules & VBA :: Display Query In Datasheet And Output To Text

Mar 24, 2014

The user will select two dates. Start and End date. The user will hit the run button and the application will read an excel file with employee data and only display/output the records within that date range selected (employment date).

Code:

Option Compare Database
Function DeleteTable()
'Delete old records from AllEmployeesData table
On Error GoTo DeleteTable_Err

[code]....

I am not getting the query displayed on the datasheet after it is done executing. It's just a blank sheet. Also the output file is just this:

Code:
ssn
last
mi
first
employ

I did a quick query test using SQL in Access and it worked fine there. I am guessing my error is somwhere in this section:

Code:
'--Display query result on Datasheet and Output query to text file
With db
Set qdf = .CreateQueryDef("NewHireQuery", strSQL)
DoCmd.OpenQuery "NewHireQuery"
.QueryDefs.Delete "NewHireQuery"
End With
db.Close
qdf.Close
Set qdf = Nothing

[code]....

Reports :: Output Access Reports As JPG To Display In Pictures Screen Saver

Sep 2, 2013

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.

Hello, all.

I haven't worked with access in about 2 years, so I'm a bit rusty. I was wondering, what is the easiest way, if any, to output an image stored in an OLE object field to a file, like a bmp to be edited say in paint or something via VB code?
