I have an issue with saving PDF report
When i preview, i see all data just fine but when i save a PDF of my report, i am missing some data in the report. That data is rather important because its the quantities and size of my items in my Purchase Order Report.
I do see the items description.
Access 2010 report based on query based on 3 views using ODBC with the following sections:
Report Header
Page Header
Detail (1 - 3 lines)
Page Footer
The detail section has these lines...first line exits for all students, other 2 lines optional. Each line includes data from each of the 3 views:
Demograhic and bus/route information
Special needs information
Additional text information
Each student may have multiple lines in the detail section, one for pickup route, one for drop-off route and possible other routes.
Using VBA and the On Format event of the Detail Section, I have formatted the report to not display repeating information (not apply to use "Hide duplicates" feature) and not display either/both of the optional lines in the detail section.
All works well except that on the first line of each subsequent page, most of the data is missing. I have stepped through using the debugger and see that the data is returned by the query, but not displayed on the report.
I am getting two different results when I preview or print a report. When I preview a report the report title and page title are populated with the strings I built and assigned to global variables. In the report load event the GVs are assigned to the text boxes. Everything works great. If I hit the print icon while previewing the report, those text boxes are populated with the right strings. The problem is I have the option to send the report directly to the printer without previewing it, using the code below.
Code:
DoCmd.OpenReport Report, acViewNormal, , , acHidden
When this is executed, the report title and page title text boxes are blank. I have put a debug.print (the 3 GVs) in the load event and it spits out the three strings, but the actual printout has no titles. The bound data always prints, but these unbound text boxes fail. I have even copied the string assignment to the open event and that did not work.
When data is input to my form and when i click on preview report, the preview report displays all results (my report source is from my query). However when I click on print preview a portion of data is missing. Basically is the check boxes I have in the report. They all are grayed out. These check boxes are unbounded and not related to the query. Basically I have an event procedure created upon clicking print preview as follows:
Private Sub PreviewMRO_Click()
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSaveRecord
DoCmd.OpenReport "rptMRODataEntry", acViewReport
If MROReason = "Repair" Then
[Code] ....
The selections are all drop down boxes in the form and upon selection it will populate the text boxes in my report. It seems to work perfectly upon clicking the preview report button but when I click on print preview the check boxes are grayed out.
I have created query and all my values come into the table from the query fine.
When i then go and generate the report all of the boxes are there for the data but there is no data in them. For owner and Job Id all info is there but job name, Department and a few others there is no data in the boxes.
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?

This morning when I make changes to reports in design view then I try to save the changes and Access acts like nothing was saved. I then close window and it asks if I want to save changes, I click yes then it dosn't close. If I close and don't save changes it closes then.
I don't get any error messages or anything that looks like a problem and I could save changes yesturday. Not sure what is differant today.
It is on Access 2003 format.

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.?

I have a report that has multiple clients on each page. In the report, some clients have data for a specific date while others do not.
I would like to be able to Save As PDF each page to a specified folder but only if that client has data in the report. I am currently doing this in Excel, but would like to move my data and reports over to Access. My Excel VBA code is:
Sub SaveAsPDF()
Dim ws As Worksheet
For Each ws In Worksheets
If ws.Range("B66").Value <> "" And _
ws.Name <> "Notes" And _
ws.Name <> "Lookups" Then
[code]...
Which says if B66 is empty then don't Save As PDF. Is this possible to do in Access?I'm very new to Access and have never used VBA in it before.I would like to be able to create a button in a form that when I click it will run this code.
My reports are saved as a PDF at the moment I click the print report button, select cutePDF Writer then manually add the Quote number stored in Field from the Table or form into the file name, then select the location to store the PDF file
Can I make this process automated when I click the print report button to auto select PDF Print, then auto populate the file name with the quote/Inv Number and then save to nominated directory.
I want to save my report as excel file on the user computer with a click of a button. I have tried this code:
Private Sub Cmd_ReporttoExcel_Click()
DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, "Gastrolog Report", acFormatXLS, "C:UsersXXDocuments" & Format(Date, "yyyymmdd") & ".xls"
End Sub
But it is giving error 2282 - The format in which you are attempting to output the current object is not available.
The other part of this question is :
This is something similar when I didn't have "PDF add in " in access 2007, when I added PDF add in then option to save file in PDF was available in "output to" action of macro. There is nothing like excel add in. However when I can export the data in excel sheet by Export function in access why don't I have option to save file as excel in "output to " action in macro? I want to have this option so that user can click a button in the form rather than in the top ribbon try to find out how to transfer and save the excel sheet.
I have a form and a report that will not save the changes nor close. I have done compact and repair, performed a restart and it is still happening. What could cause something like this. I have been working all day on other forms and reports without incident.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi,
I have a form that collects data, it works perfectly and writes all inputted data to the table. I have made the same form but using the data web page wizard.
It works fine but when i look at the table, some of the data is missing. there are 12 fields to complete, (all drop down boxes) I have one table which contains the employees ID number and name.
When the id number and name and picked from the drop down box on the web page, they are listed and fine. The record gets added and no problem.
However, go an look at the data in the table and for some reason the employee ID number is present but the name field is blank?? It has not copied the data across.
Even more confusing (currently a test system) if i delete all the data in the table, it works for the first entry, i.e the web page populates the name field but only for the first entry. After that the name field remails blank.
Any suggestions? I have already deleted and re added all the table fields that relate to name and id number and still the same error. I have used the wizard to make several pages and the same problem with all of them. I am baffled why it just refuses the one field and all the others are fine.
thanks

Hi! I'm new here and have a little bit of experience w/ access...

I am a beginner using Access 2007. The custom written program that I am using has a minor glitch. The report has a subform inside the main report. In this subform is a form header, detail, form footer. The information that is entered into the main report that transfers to the form header, detail, and form footer works and that data is saved with no problems. When I go to create a pdf file from this report all the data transfers to the printed pdf except the information in the form footer. I have looked at the property pages and compared all the properties and they are all identical.
Below is a screen shot of the report in the design view. The areas circled in red are the data that is missing from the pdf when printed. The area in green prints correctly as well as the main body of the report. We insert comments in the comment section and also type initials in the signature section but this do not show up when printed in the pdf. The database saves the information that is input but does not print it. Not everything in the company has access to the database so this is the reasoning for generating a pdf so that it is placed on the company drive for everyone to see.
I have created a small database, and created a Main Menu (form), the main menu starts as soon as someone start my database, i have linked up all my forms & reports into this main menu. now i want to hide left panel bar that shows all the table, quires, forms & reports files (so nobody can access tables, quires, etc from that panel).

Hi hope you can help me out,
I have a query which combines several linked tables, the query has about 10 columns, I need to show only the records which have one or more empty fields.
Some records may only have one missing field others may have several.
Any ideas?
Many thanks,
Ed
I want to use a column in a query to show where data is missing in other fields.
In excel I have used this statement:
=IF(COUNTA(I5:J5)=2,"","error")
Basically, I have two fields PRICE and WEIGHT. I want a column in the query to show 'Error' (or any kind of flag) when either (or both) of these fields are blank.
Hope this makes sence.
Any advice?
Thanks
I would like to know how to display a msg box for missing or duplicate information when entering data into a form. My database keeps track of call accounting codes and the code is the primary key index field. I use macro's for all of my automated tasks such as finding codes, filtering for available codes and such. What I want to do is to display a simple message when adding a new one to the database if they forgot to enter the code and if they did enter a code if they entered a duplicate. The default error meesage tells them there is a problem but they won't know how to fix it. I know I should use the Before Update and After Update but I am not good at writing the vb code. I found some code in one of the the threads and copied it and changed the field names but it failed. I need a simple message like "You did not enter the Fac code" and "The Fac code you entered is already in the database please check your information."
The field name of my primary key is "Fac"
Thanks in advance for anyone that could help me with this.
