I need to create a report with multiple subforms. I set up my first report and then I believe I need to add "more detail" sections or another page to this report so i can drag in my additional forms.
How do i separate out sub forms? Ideally I will want to have the main table on the top then the sub form in the middle, then the next on the bottom of the page.
I have a form where user can chose his own criteria for the report, like time period, ppl involved and other parameters. i open report filtered with these conditions. I also create a nice text (as public variable) bout what where the search criteria and put it in the header/footer. Then I export the report as xls file. it's nicely saved as column names and data, just what i need.how to add a field that would store the criteria, ie that string public variable that has it all neatly explained?

I've got a report, which on the screen is three chrts and a page break in between. Page is set up to print landscape.
When I print the report or save to pdf it adds a lot of pages in between 2 and 3. It seems to be of chart no.2 getting smaller and smaller. I've attached a copy of the pdf so you can see what I mean.
its doing this on all my reports.
I have a report "AFR" that includes workorder fields. I would like to also include the subform information for the parts and labor.I was able to put the subforms on the report but it will only display the first part and not all parts from the parts subform.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a report which is bound to a query.The body of the report comes from the query.I also have additional data that is displayed on the form that is currently 'hard' coded into an a label.
I would call this data reference data. It's not specific to a client so there is no logical place to store it other than a reference table which will have no links to other tables. ie it's not truly relational. can I get data from this reference table in the same way I could do on a form by using a combo box and having a SELECT statement?
Is it possible to force the subform to start printing on a new page in a report. I know that you can get a group to do this within the subform, but I can't get the subform itself to do it.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've created an Access Report of a letter to be printed and mailed to customers. The majority of the letter is text, however there is a subform in the middle that will have a wide range of records displayed in it. This causes the subform's height to adjust from 1/2" to several inches, depending on the number of records. I need the text below the subform to start just below the last record in the subform, no matter how many records are displayed in the subform.

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

I am trying to create a P&L statement in access. I know what I want to come out at the end. I am just starting to play with access and having trouble getting what I want to come out of it.
On the sales side I have a query that gathers all the revenue sources and calculates a total for each date. I then use a second query to just take out the data I want for the P&L report. I created a sub-report that displays the data I want. I use the grouping and grand total features to get the total into the report footer. So far so good.
On the expense side I created a form of a query to manage the one to many relationship to capture the data for expenses (one purchase with many line items). I created a query based of this query to get the relevant data for my expense sub-report. I created the sub-report and got everything looking and calculating the way I want it to. I use the same grouping and grand total features to display the data in the report footer. Still good.
I created a new main parent report with the two sub-reports (sales & expenses) on it and even was able to pull the totals from the sub-reports into the main (so currently the subtotals of the two sub-reports are displayed twice). Now when I try to use the textboxes I used to pull the sub-report totals into the main report to perform additional calculations (sales - expenses) I get #error. I have tried different things and gotten ?name.
Control source for the two textbox controls on the main that display correctly, but don't let me do any further calculations.
=[rptP&LExpensesOverview]![AccessTotalsAmount]
=[rptP&LSalesOverview]![AccessTotalsTotal Sales]
To do the subtraction I have tried using the references above, as well as just using the names of the unbound text boxes in the report that bring the totals into the main report.
As a work around, I tried to build one query with all the data from sales and expenses, but can't "filter" based on date and get the data I want in the query results because the two sets of data are not necessarily related. I either get a long list of records, or no records (I am currently only playing with about 5 days of data).
The aim of what I am doing is to create a monthly statement to give to our intermediaries that shows the commission they will receive each month for the deals they have referred. I have managed to create this report, HOWEVER I can't figure out how to filter out which month I need, so I a report for Jan, Feb Mar etc... The idea is that at the end of each month I need to run the report so only the latest month shows...
View 3 Replies View RelatedHow do I hide the report footer based on the report's data ?
I'm trying to hide if number of users = 1
The report's data is a query built inside the report's RecordSource, not a self standing query.
I've done this once entirely by accident and can't seem to duplicate it...
I have a report. It has the following:
Report Header: Logo and title
Department Header
Supervisor Header
Group Header
Detail
Department Footer: Totals
Report Footer: Overall Totals for all departments
Here's my question.
I have combo boxes on my main form that filter this report. The combo boxes are referred to by the query that runs the report. How do I get proper unfiltered overall totals in my report footer?
I have a report that displays incidents, their details, consequences and a photo. Among the details is a severity rating high medium or low, I have been asked to make the report shorten the records which have been given a low severity (because it takes up as much space as the more important/severe ones).
The only method I can think of is to use the onformat event, to shrink and make invisible all the fields that I don't want to see if the severity field shows 'low'.
I forum could someone tell me:
I have an unbound form on that form I want to put three sub forms one on a products table the other on a course start dates table and the link table that joins the other two together. all three are related to each other with Pk/FK links.
When I try to link them it says you cannot link items on an unbound form.

We have a shift log that includes both personnel actions during any given day as well as operational actions. (We recently switched from a word document to an Access Database to allow multiple users to input events while another has the logbook open already (which you couldn't do with Word))
At the beginning of each day, my manager reviews the previous days log and forwards up pertinent data (some personnel, some operational) to our higher authorities. Is there a way to allow him to select which records he'd like to include on that higher-authorities report straight from the local-level report?
I'm not a fan of allowing him a "Save As" feature because that kind of defeats the data integrity purpose of an events log where he could save as an RTF and then edit any of the log entries without any checks or balances.
I have an odd thing happening with my reports. There is a main report that gives class information (from query). There are two subreports (from queries also ) with scores (one for each type of test). There are some unbound controls on the main form that display a count of how many scores are recorded which are totals from the subreports. The controls all report the correct numbers however, when I scroll down to view each record, some of them change to #error, or #name, or similar for a moment. Sometimes they will stay in error form when I stop scrolling but change to correct if I scroll up just a bit. Is this because the controls won't calculate unless that report record has focus?
View 1 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to hide a label on a report if the sub report count is 0?
View 2 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to have say five different reports that give out information and at the bottom the totals. I would like to take each of those separate reports to create one report with just the totals.
View 3 Replies View RelatedSo I have a text box in a report that I want to pull in data from a field in another report, so the 'control' for my text box looks something like this...
=[Reports]![rptSalesReceiptSub]![Text141] (i.e Text141 is the data I want to pull into my report)
...the path is completely correct but when I run my report I get.#Name? If I run the report that has the data I want, it's fine (in other words Text141 has valid data in it)
I am wondering if it is possible to send a report as xls file and keep the format exactly as the report looks.When I try to send it now, it automatically changes back to the column names from the table, which I in the report have changed and want to keep in my excel output!
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a small database that tracks staff training. Main tables are:
tb_staff
tb_courses
tb_courses_done
1 staff can take many courses. I want to introduce booking - staff can book a course but not necessarily attend. Can I just add a table, say tb_course_booked and use an update query to add to tb_courses_done as needed? Would that work?
Thanks.
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.
Can I import data into a table that already has data in it? I want to add this new data to the existing information.
