I have a report that pulls data from a crosstab query. The report works perfectly and prompts for a "StartDate" when it is run.I need a form with a date field that can be selected. Then a command button which when pressed opens the report with the selected date passed as the parameter.the code I have so far is in the on click event of the button:
I was hoping that this would pass the txt.startDate field on the form to the report's "StartDate" when it is opened, but it is still prompting for the parameter when the report loads.Should I be using openArgs rather than the where clause? Or do I need to configure something in the "on load" event of the report also?
I have a stored procedure created in SQL SERVER 2008r2
I have a form in access adp project with combo boxes, when I click the submit button I want the values chosen to be the parameters and the stored procedure called to generate a report
I have created a report that prints a transaction input via a form. All the data has been posted to tables while the document details are still on the form. The source for the report is a query that gets its "Document ID" from the current form as its CRITERIA. This works fine. I click a button and the report prints.
Now I've added a datasheet that lists all the "Document IDs" that have been posted within a given date range. I've added a Macro to open(reprint) the same report when any Document ID is double-clicked. This is working except that it prompts for a Parameter Value and references Forms!DocDataEntry!txtDocumentID. (Note: this is the name of the original data entry form which is no longer open)
If I manually type the Document ID (that I just double-clicked) in the parameter box, the report prints correctly. But this shouldn't be necessary.
I know I'm missing a WHERE clause on the Macro that opens the report but nothing I've input works. I can't even hard code a document number. Actually any Where clause provided prompts additional parameter boxes to open and they ALL require the SAME INFORMATION... the Document ID.
I'm thinking that the Criteria on the Document ID in the query should be changed to allow a Document ID from any active source.
I have a report that runs code in Report_load, and based on the value of a field it sets some objects Visible=False and others Visible=True etc..
Now I'm trying to move away from acViewPreview and print direct to the printer with acViewNormal but the Report_Load event doesn't run. Is there a different way to run that code when printing directly?
I have a report based on a query with a between two dates parameter (Begin date and end date). This parameter is fed from a form. All works well - query, form and report. My question is can the date parameter appear on the report header so users know the report was based on a start date of 1/1/2008 and an end date of 1//2009 for example?
I have a database with which I use to generate reports as pdfs to load to a website.
However when I go to save the file as a pdf it is always as the report name.I am trying to automate this by using a macro as I need to run a report 50 times for ships with a different parameter each time (name of the ship) Another report needs to be run about 30 times, this time the parameter being a date And finally two other reports, but I can live with those being the name of the reports.
Firstly can this be done?
Secondly which would be the best way?
I've tried using the macro route by I run my Report "Main_Ship" with a where clause of [ship]="wiltshire". This produces the report with the relevant ship, but I am then unsure what to use next to save it as a pdf with the name "wiltshire" using the macro route.
or
Create a VBA routine that runs the report as many times as required each with a different parameter for the name of ship or date.?
So I have a report that opens via Parameter. The SQL behind the query that runs the report is (I took out alot of lines that aren't necessary to answer the question)
PARAMETERS [Enter Your Box Id] Short; SELECT DocumentsTable.OrganizationalID, . . . DocumentsTable.Status FROM DepartmentsTable INNER JOIN (Year1 INNER JOIN DocumentsTable ON Year1.ID = DocumentsTable.RecordDateYearID) ON DepartmentsTable.ID = DocumentsTable.DepartmentID WHERE (((DocumentsTable.Voided)<>'Y' Or (DocumentsTable.Voided) Is Null) AND ((DocumentsTable.ID)=[Enter Your Box ID]));
So if I click on the report, I get a little popup that says "Enter Your Box ID", and when I do, the report works just as expected.
However, I also want to be able to open this report via link from another report, and pass the Box ID #. I just can't get the syntax right. I would have thought it was this:
Private Sub ID_Click() DoCmd.OpenReport "Find A Box", acViewReport, , "[Enter Your Box Id]=" & Me.ID End Sub
However when that execute, I still get the pop up asking for "Enter Your Box ID"
Need to track donations in two areas. Have one query that tracks them in location A and one that tracks them in location B. Same query, no other difference. Report made on location A is fine. Made a copy of it and based it on the 2nd query--and I get a pop-up "Enter Parameter Value" for Last Name. The Last Name field is not in the query or anywhere in the report that I can find.
I have to print a label quickly every time that the product hit the warehouse. The label has been created as a report linked to the query that will provide the info to the report. In order to make this report printing as quick as possible the idea is to scan the sample id from the product and once the label is printed scan the next sample and an on.
I'm not an expert on VBA but I have created the following scrip but the reports doesn't pop up.
Here is the code:
Dim SampleID As String SampleID = InputBox("Enter Sample ID") If SampleID > 0 Then DoCmd.OpenReport "rptGRM_QuickPrintLabelDymo", acViewPreview, , "[Sample]=" & SampleID Else DoCmd.Close End If End Sub
I have a report and within the report I have added some text boxes with some simple logic such as sum, count, etc. These text boxes function well as long as the logic is referencing existing fields. The minute I try to have a text box reference another text box I get the "Enter Parameter Value" box pop up. I don't understand this as the text box I am referencing has a vaule based on what it is referencing.
Example: 1st text box control source =Sum([existingfield]) I get a value. 2nd text box control source =[existingfield2]/[1st text box] I get "Enter Parameter Value" of 1st text box.
I am very new to access, any way that I can have a popup box appear when I ask to produce a report and I can type in a parameter of my choice and it will produce a report based around that parameter?
I have a table that is directly linked to an excel spread sheet that is updated each week external to the database. I have to produce reports on the data contained in that table.
I have already produced reports that look for specific number and those reports are produced automatically.
I was wondering if there was some way I could open a form and type a number into a text box and it would produce a report around that number. e.g. "list all engines below X margin" and I can type any number in representing X and a report would be produced.
When using parameters from one form to the next I normally hide the form and then reference the parameter textboxes in the next form to the hidden form. Is there a better way of doing this as I saw threads here mentioning passing a parameter. How do I do this? Thanks!
I have created a simple query that is used as the record source of one of my forms. I want to pass the query a different criterion each time the form is opened.
Any suggestion/example on who to do that will be very much appreciated.
Can Access handle paramater-passing without getting into the object model and adding a "Parameter" datatype to a query and calling DoCmd.RunSQL etc, and also without prompting the user?
Is something like this possible (as it is in SQL Server I believe):
SELECT * FROM some_query_that requires_a_parameter(param_value='china')
I am trying to avoid the annoying bit where Access Prompts you for a parameter with the little popup, and I'm also trying to avoid the little bit called "programming it with VBA".
I'd like to see if this can be done with only a SQL query in Access.
Please can someone tell me how to go about adding to the code below. Currently the user enters the date criteria in a form. This works great and the data is exported to excel. But I can't seem to figure out how to get the input from the user to also be exported to Cell A1 in excel. Example: if the user enters starting date and end date, that information should be placed in the A1field in excel. Thanks for your help.

I am struggling with what seems like should be a straightforward task. Unexpectedly however it has become an infuriatingly difficult one (no doubt due to my complete novice status).
I have a very basic d/base (3 tables) that I have been searching using basic SQL queries. I want to create a simple 'search' form that produces the results of my various queries without the need to work in SQL. Enter one or more search criteria, hit ENTER, results presented in datasheet perhaps?
Thought this would have been easy but I've had no luck. Can you please explain how I can pass a parameter from a form to a query?
I've a method **querylistboxitems** and i want to call this method in several click events, only difference is listbox,dropdown values change based on the event i call.
Code:
Public Sub querylistboxitems(lstbox As listbox, dropdown As ComboBox) Dim drpdwnvalue As String drpdwnvalue = dropdown.Value With lstbox //do something End with End Sub
And I'm calling this in the buttion click event by passing the listbox names as **List_Compare** and **Select_CM_Compare**
Code: Private Sub Command_compare_Click() Call querylistboxitems_1(List_Compare, Select_CM_Compare) End Sub
But the values passing to the function are not control names, control values i.e corresponding control selected values. I want to use listbox name in **lstbox**, not the value.
I have a form that the user can add Work Order numbers to a text box and pass them to a listbox to collect 1 or more values. Each of which need a separate report with the labour hours for each Work Order.
I am having issues figuring out how to get it to pass them to a query or filter the reports.
I have tried many different examples and nothing seems to work.
I this is a simplifed version a saved query called "qryTest"
PARAMETERS [gUserID] Long; SELECT [Id],'Complaint' AS IncidentType FROM tblComplaints WHERE tblComplaints.[Id] IN (Select Incident_ID from tblNotification where Dept_ID IN (Select Dept_ID from tblUserDepts Where User_Id = [gUserID] ) AND Incident_Type = 'Complaint');
UNION ALL SELECT [Id],'Fall' AS IncidentType, FROM tblFalls tblFalls.[Id] IN (Select Incident_ID from tblNotification where Dept_ID IN (Select Dept_ID from tblUserDepts Where User_Id = [gUserID] ) AND Incident_Type = 'Fall');
how to i call the result from code or from the query manager and include the parameter so there is no prompt that comes up?
like Me.ListNew.RowSource = "qryTest " & gUserID &";" or Select * from qryTest , 31 - where 31 is the value fed to the parameter
??? does anyone know? I know it can be called in APS like this:
Dim Conn Set Conn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") Conn.Open strConn ' strconn is my connection string set rsP=createobject("adodb.recordset") conn.qryTest 31 .....
I can't believe I can't do it from the query string! Heeeellpppp!
I have developed some complex pass-thru queries in Access, looking at DB2 data. I am hoping to be able to make these queries 'prompted' for easy use for my less technical colleagues. If these were developed in IBM's QMF tool, I would build the prompt like &MemberID, for example, if I wanted the user to input a value for Member ID. Access pass-thrus don't recognize this, and it throws an error. Anyone have any ideas on how I can do this?
I have a Report containing a sub-report which holds the pictures. Typically there are 3-4 pictures per A4 page and 2-3 pages, so not millions, but for some reason whenever I load I get between 1-3 pictures a page and the rest show as blank. I can repeatedly reload time after time and get a seemingly random number of successful images.
The original images are on a network drive (but connectivity is good). They are high quality images but the load time isn't that bad (Is there a 'normal' load time for these things?) I wonder if it's just timing out after the first X pictures..
I have a form with option group (two option buttons) and date fields (to select a date range). The form should pull/pass parameters from the query. There's a form button that generates a report based on the query.
Issue: I can't figure it out how to link option buttons and date range to the query so when the button is clicked it generates the report with chosen criteria. The form is for the user to enter parameters.
I have a report based on a query that has data for many dates. At the moment I have put a specific date in the criteria of the query so that I could build the report format. So it now displays all the data for the date i have in the criteria section. I will need to run this report several times per week so the specified date (and corresponding data in the report) will need to be changed to a new date when I open the report i.e. when I open my report I want to show data in the report only for a specified date.
Can I create a date parameter box open up when I open the report? Can I create a form with a button that when I click will open the report displaying data for that date? What would be the best way?I also need to display the specified date on the report.
I have a main report with 3 sub reports.The Sub reports have onload events that fill up the text boxes with VBA code. When I open the sub report alone everything works fine. But when I open the main report, the on load of the subreport wont work.
