We have an Access 2003 database used by a small number of staff located in different towns. One of the reports is generated using a query by form.
Two users located in the same office recently upgraded to Access 2010 don't get the same results for this report as I do (I still use Access 2003).
Other staff located in different offices use Access 2010 and get the same report results as me.
I'm trying to create a form which filters a report based off of combo boxes selected by the user. The code I'm using currently is:
Code:
DoCmd.OpenReport "rptProgramAttendees", acViewReport, , "ProgramIDFK = " & cboProgramTitle
This works great to return a report if the user selects something from the combo box. How do I adapt this so that the user can also leave the combo box blank and filter the report to return all records?Additionally, what if I want to have the user filter between dates selected on the form; i.e. between 'txtStart' and 'txtEnd'
I am having a problem with the code in the Close event on a report when asking the user if they want to view additional reports after closing the current report in preview. Report Closes after the Yes/No answer is selected. If yes selected it does nothing. If No is selected it does nothing, This code works fine in a data entry form after changing the close and open commands. Using Access 2010
Code Using Now.
Private Sub Report_Close()
Dim IntAnswer As Integer
IntAnswer = MsgBox("Would you like to View/Print additional Reports?", vbQuestion + vbYesNo, "Yes")
If IntAnswer = vbYes Then
[Code]....
How to proceed and what is the "accepted" version of events.I have created a report, a dynamic method statement actually, and want my user to be able select some data to appear in the report. Report is rptMS01, it is fed from a query and has some fields to automatically populate [Company], [Site], [Postcode] etc. All of the static text is in CanGrow textboxes to sidestep the report height limit. The report is opened by a button on a form which uses a macro to open only for the current site. All OK so far.
My boss would like a section/text box/subreport to select the personnel involved in each method statement and this to appear on the report. So, on clicking the button on the form which would usually open the report directly, some kind of intermediary selection form opens instead with a list of all personnel. User can then select which personnel to involve and on clicking OK this appears in the designated box on the report. A CanGrow/Shrink textbox would be ideal!
Do I need to include this in the current query which feeds the report? I know a listbox can have multiple selections but how would I reference this? How do I keep the other fields as well? Should I create a table with the personnel list?...
I would like my user to be able to enter dates on a report.
I have entered unbound fields on the report; but it doesn't keep any of the information (dates) for printing or otherwise. (I don't need to save these dates since they change monthly.)
I managed to create a report by user using a combo box. When an user selects a name from the combo box, it generates a report showing all the records by that name.
However, now I need to be able to generate a report as above but between 2 dates. How??
I am having two sets of criteria.
1) by user
2) between 2 dates
Can this be done?
Using a table with employees, I created another with equipment that uses a lookup to assign each piece of equipment to an employee (more than 1 piece of equipment can be assigned to each employee)
I want to be able to select records using a form, either by checkbox or listbox of which employees to include in the report that shows what equipment each is assigned. The problem I am having is creating the form/code to create the and/or query to generate the report.
I'm trying to make a report that a untrained user can use to review the relevant data from the database I'm creating. All of the work I've done so far has been directly in the tables . Here's a quick outline of my general data organization:
Department:
DepartmentID(PK)
DepartmentName
Employee:
EmployeeID(PK)
EmployeeName
DepartmentID(FK)
Needs_Work (check box)
[code]....
Basically, I want the user to select a department to view using a combo box or option group (which I'm not sure of how to do in a report). Then, I want to view the employees within that department sorted first by whether or not the Needs_Work check box is selected, and then by how many of their competencies are unchecked.
I have a navigation form that will have 6-8 tabs. We were using about that many databases, but we are finally consolidating them into one. The result of us using so many databases has been the multitude of forms and reports that were necessary for each database prior to merging them together.
The problem: There will be anywhere from 12-20 (text boxes) that the user can use to search anything in our database. What we need to have happen, if possible, is for those search parameters to show up in the header of our report if they have text in them. If the text box is blank, it should not show up in the header of the report.
I have read how to to do the start/end date technique, but I do not know if that would work for what we are doing since the boxes would only show up if they are populated by the user.
I need to create a census report from the employees we serve and their dependents, by company. I have a union query of the Employees table and Dependents table to put them all on one list, then a form where you can type the name of the company you need, with a button that opens the report. This works great, except for the fact that sometimes we don't need the dependents; if a company has over 100 Full-Time employees, we only need the employees. I've added a check box ([IncDep]) on the form, asking the user if they want to include the dependents, but I don't know how to get this to filter the report. I have a Relationship field on the tables that specifies an employee as a "Subscriber", so I'd like to filter the report where [Relationship] = "Subscriber" but I don't know how to do this. The union query specifies both Employees.Relationship and Dependents.Relationship to the text box [Relationship], but when I do something like
Dim stDocName As String
If Me!IncDep.Value = False Then
stDocName = "Census"
DoCmd.OpenReport stDocName, acViewReport, , "[Relationship]='" & "Subscriber" & "'"
Else
stDocName = "Census"
DoCmd.OpenReport stDocName, acViewReport
End If
I am trying to generate a report that is based off of a query. The query has a form filter that it needs to filter the data. I keep getting a jet engine error and couple others.
The form has year, start week, and end week on it. I can get the query to work fine. When I try to open the report, Access says it doesn't recognize the " [Forms]![frmUptimeFilter]![StartWeek] " as a valid field name or expression.
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 report which lists spend by customer. It is based on a query which requests the customer number I want the report for.
How can I get the query/report to offer a drop down list of the customer numbers available, so that I don't have to manually enter the number each time from memory!
Thanks in advance!

Hello,
Is there any way of creating a user defined query/ report based on fields in a table? Basically we want a report to be generated based on whatever fields the user enters. So, say we have 30 different fields in a table, the user gets to click on a button that gives them the option to create a report that includes: field1, field2, field3 and where field10 = Blue.
Is this possible to do?
I am trying to put together an form to be used in an academic administration database.
Ideally, I would like to create a form that will allow a user to select criteria and get a list of all students fitting that criteria.
For example:
Show me all a) all Economics majors with b) 30-50 Credits who c) have not taken English 101.
All of this data could be compiled into one query, but I would like to create a form that will allow a user to select what data he or she would like to see.
(Maybe they only want to see graduates)
I hope this makes sense.
And I hope someone can help point me in the right direction.
Thank you!
Hi,
I have a report that requires the user's input for a field called UserID.
I also have a form in which I want to have a button that can be used to print off this report (which would involve automatically entering the UserID into it). How do I do this?
Here is the code for the form button that I am using at the moment, but when you click it, Access still needs the UserID (duh!). So, how can I automate the input?
Code:Private Sub Command25_Click()On Error GoTo Err_Command25_Click Dim stDocName As String stDocName = "Menu" DoCmd.OpenReport stDocName, acNormalExit_Command25_Click: Exit SubErr_Command25_Click: MsgBox Err.Description Resume Exit_Command25_Click End Sub
what is the best way and good practice in limiting user's access in form or report.For example, i have 2 users in my UserTable, one is Administrator and the other is just ordinary user.In case i want the ordinary user to open the form in "Read Only" mode, and the Administrator in "Edit" mode.
Do I need to make a code for each form to be opened or there's another easy way to handle this? (I am thinking for additional fields in UserTable to store their individual rights, but after that i don't know what to do next)
I have a report when i send units back to the customer, the report generates an ID in a list box (a query picks the last ID used and adds 1)
after the report prints i use an update query to mark the units as "shipped" with the dates in the main table. i need the update query to use the value from the list box to update the value in the table.
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?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a report based on a query.There is a field in my personnel table and the query: [Field] with values from my lookup table and has three choices:
1-Inspections
2-Administrative
3-Safety..
I have a report and would like to filter based on [Field].I can filter by putting [Field]=Inspection on the Filter On Load, then typing 1 into the parameter box. And it works.I cannot however choose more than one of the three choices and I have to type the number in. Fine for me but it won't be for other users.it is used for more than one report. I would also like to avoid having seperate queries for all these reports.In other words, I would like to filter the report, not the query.
I want to be able to run a report based off my "Allot_Q" query. I have a button to perform the report but would like the button to update the query and run my report based on my selection text boxes. Right now I have one button the runs the query based on the selection and then another button to run the report. My boss wants one button to pull the report based on the selection.

adding record set in report and displaying a report..i want every record to pass thru recodset and create a report for every record separately
I am relatively new to writing databases in access, I did some a long time ago, but cant remember what on earth I used to do.
I have created a database with all the information I need it and have a query set up that gives different results depending on the information the user has entered
The user decides what the query will display though a form.
I want access to generate a report with the information in it that the query chucks out.
However the information the query gives changes every time depending on the user input.
there is a query and report "01 qry Main" and from the main FORM I like to print out into txt file actual record, my code is:
Private Sub Command24_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_Command24_Click
Dim stDocName As String
stDocName = "01 qry Main"
DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, "01 qry Main", acFormatTXT, "D:10 DbaseCTQ stuffsaveReportFormat.txt", False
code]...
there should be an option "ID = " & Me.ID.Value or something like this to print out only actual record.
i have a form to generate report with 3 filters,
1.sales_person,
2.Client_Name,
3.Product_ID
these are combo selection and the report is working fine with these 3 filters. filtering by a query. all 3 feilds on the same table.what i am unable to do is make these filters as option to select with a check box. like if i dont want the third filter product but to generate report with the other two filters sales_person and client_name.
