Reports :: Print Report / Disable Restore Button - Inconsistencies
Dec 3, 2014
I have a database with several reports that get constantly printed, however I am having an issue with their display properties that sometimes cause errors.I need the report to come up on top of everything, maximized and with the menu bar available to allow for it to be printed or close it. The report window cannot have "minimize" or "restore" available to make sure nobody access any form behind it.
To achieve this in a form I generally use the modal property, however if I do this in a report I cannot get to the menu bar to print or close the print preview.Thinking that modal was out of the question, I went ahead and maximized the report on load and set its properties to the image attached. The db is then compiled (accde) and then distributed.
On my computer (it is being developed on my machine) the report loads fine (maximized) with no min, max or restore buttons and the print preview menu bar is shown with the print and close buttons available. See "My PC" image attached.On any other computer, the report opens up maximized but the report's restore and close buttons are enabled, however the print and close buttons on the print preview menu bar are greyed out. See "Other PC" image attached.Why the inconsistent behaviour when using the same front end?

I added a "print preview" button to a report that does just that, shows the print preview. The issue I'm having is that I can't do anything in Access after I click that button. Everything in Access seems to stop working, I can't click on anything with my mouse. the only thing that does anything is that i can move the report up and down with the up/down/left/right keys. If I click on a different application that isn't Access (i.e. excel, spotify, email, etc.) and then go back to it, everything works fine.

I have an unbound form with an associated report. When the user hits the 'print' button on the form/screen, the report is launched in the background. In the On Load event of the report I populate the report fields from the forms field as so:
Code:
Me.txtAddrMainLine2 = "NAME " & UCase([Forms]![frm_OrderRx].[txtPatientName])
This works like a charm as long as I call the report in Print Preview mode (i.e. with acViewPreview). But if I send the report directly to the printer, none of the fields print.
I've read about using other report events to populate the fields (e.g., On Format and On Print) and also something about using TempVars to pass the data. But I haven't read anything that's clear and definitive about the full answer.

I have created a custom menu used on my reports which contains all the icons I need and anchored them to the right side of the report. I have been able to remove the min, max and the close icons from the default report menu bar at the top right hand side as well as the "Ask A Question" dropdown. But I am not able to remove the "Restore window" button that comes with the report print preview.
How do I remove the "Restore Window" icon from the report's menu bar?
I'm using Access 2003...

How to disable the Minimise, Restore and Close Buttons at the very top right hand corner of the Access application?
I have got buttons on my database to open / close everything so no need for them, even to hide the full Title bar probably be okay.
I am running Access 2007.

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 a form which my company wanted that each single record should be printed from form. I made a print record button and put code to print single page or record. However as a natural habit people go to file > print to print which leads printing all records so 1000's records start printing. Is there any way i can hide print button. File >Print button.

Like the title says I need a command button to print preview and email two reports. I tried using macros but the problem I have is that it'll send out two emails instead of one email with two attachments. The other problem is that it won't recognize current pages information so it'll show two blank reports. But If I go to next record and come back in form view, it reognizes the changes and the reports look fine. Any help would be appreciated.

A command button on a form that can:
1- Open the Report called : ConsentForm
2- Print it to PDF printer (report is currently defaulted to that printer driver)
3- Save to folder: C:SOSConsentForms
4- Save as: Consent_[Last]_[First] (these are field names on the form)
Result i.e.: C:SOSConsentFormsConsent_Doe_John
5- Then send the file by email (Outlook) to : abc@hotmail.com

I am trying to print from a form to a report. The problem I am running into is I am getting a long report and I have discovered I have basically the same number of pages in my report as I have entries in my subform. If I have one entry in my subform I get a 1 page report. If I have 2 entries in my subform, I get 2 pages in my report and they look exactly the same. What am I doing wrong?

I have a project which produces a report of names, addresses, etc. I added a print button to the form to send the report to the printer. The code is as follows:
Private Sub Command32_Click()
Docmd.SetWarnings False
'Docmd.OpenReport "rptAddresses", acViewNormal
Docmd.RunCommand acCmdPrint
Docmd.SetWarnings True
End Sub
Both alternatives in the code produce the same result described following.However, the printed report includes only the first 2 colums of about 10 of the 90 plus records. If I send to to a PDF, it works fine. If I do a print view on the screen ir looks fine.

I have a form with a list box, which lists all those registered for a student orientation. I then have a button to an unbound report which prints a registration worksheet. This report looks up the student's name, test scores, suggested courses based on those scores, and various other information from multiple tables, assigns them to variables, then to controls on the report. This is done in the On Open event of the report.
But it was designed to work for record highlighted. Which was fine until now. Now I'd like to take it one step further and have it go through the list from beginning to end, printing the report for each record in the list.
Maybe I am missing something simple, but I can't seem to pull it off. The closest I can get is getting it to print the first record n times.

I'm working with getting a 3 page report to print/create PDF of the 3 pages. Right now I have the formatting set up for the 3 pages but each is an individual report.Is there a way to combine the reports into a single report? I've been messing around with subreports but can't get it to display correctly.

I am having trouble getting all columns in an Access 2007 report to show up in report view as well as to print. It seems like this is mostly occurring in columns that occupy the center of the report.

I am trying to get a report to print out one one record that I want.. I want it to be able to be sorted by date and the user just picks a date and one record is printed out on page. Right now every record that is stored is being printed on a different page and over time that is going to be a lot of paper... I want to be able to pick which record I want printed...
The Form is called "Bread Mold"
The report is called "Bread Mold Report"
The table is called "Bread Mold"
What it is sorted by is called "Swab Date"

I have built a new DB in Access 2010 to manage computer inventory for multiple 'agencies'. I built a report that pulls table info based on which agency is selected. I created a popup form that has a lookup combo box for all agencies, once the agency is selected, hit a button and the report opens up in print preview mode from a macro embedded into the form (I'm not very familiar with VBA anymore, but I am willing to learn), only problem is it opens up behind three other forms within the database (my switchboards for various forms and reports).
I have popup set to yes for all forms (so I can hide the ribbon), modal is set to no. The only way I can get the report to have focus on top is to set the popup to yes, but then I don't have the print preview buttons to print the darn thing.

I am trying to print a report for a specific Client. There are several routing records with dates. What I want to do is print the report for a specific Client that is in the primary table and a Date within the routing table. Each routing record has a Date field.
One client can have many routing records.
Example: John Smith in client
Routing record in the Routing table. I want to report on one Routing record with a specific date.

I'm using overlapping forms in my Access 2010 database.
When the form(s) open I want them maximized and I don't want the restore buttons to be available.
I have the Min Max Buttons set to None.
I have DoCmd.Maximize in the On Load.
I want the border style set to thing.
Is there any way to prevents the Restore button to be enabled?
I open the first form it's maximized as per the DoCmd.Maximize in the On Load. I then open another form (which has nothing to do with the first form) and it opens maximized. When I close the second form the first form is no longer maximized, it's restored.

I am having an issue with viewing a report. I have a button set up to show the print preview of the report. There is a chart based on the report's record source, and two sub-reports showing related data. The print preview section however shows the the chart area where it would appear is blank, i.e. there is a white area where the chart should go. There is no error message. The two sub-reports appear correctly. If I go to print the report, however, the chart appears, and it will also appear if I change the view type (e.g. to layout and back again).

Basically i have a form where i get info from multiple tables. On the main form itself i have 3 calculated fields for hours where i add all the hours i choose (from a subform) onto the main form.
My issue is i can create a query to come up with all the fields for my report, but how do i get the calculated fields on my main form on the report? Is there a way to print the calculated fields on the main form to a report? or do i have to do the same calculations on the report itself?

I am migrating a database from Spreadsheets to Access 2010. Everything else is going well but I am stuck at one point. A table has Name, Gender, and Nationality fields. Now, I need a report that will have only Nationality and Gender fields. The nationalities will be in a list and another column should have total count for each nationality. Then, the Grand total should be print at the bottom of the report. Moreover, two other columns should have a count of each gender (male and female) against every nationality.I need Report which will have Four columns i.e. Nationalities, Total, Male, Female... The nationalities column will contain a list of nationalities that are there in the data table [field name: National].. The total column will count and show the sum of each nationality from the data table [same field: national]... The Male and Female columns will do the same i.e. count the occurrence and show the total for Male and Female from the data table.
