I have created a form with an option group with 4 options (date, line, description and observation). Each of these options are to be a sort order for a report that will open after the user selects an option and clicks a button. I am trying to code the button using a select case so that case 1 opens the report sorted by date, case 2 by line, etc. how to write the code for the sorting.
View RepliesIn Report Design View, is there any way to copy the group, sort and total specifications that are in one report and paste them into another report?
View 4 Replies View Relatedis there an easy way to do a conditional format on a report where the value is 1,2,3,or 4 from an option group. I want the 1=Yes, 2=No, 3=Maybe etc.

I have a report with a Group by on City.
The users need to be able to sort by Coordinator within that OR by Client Name based on a selection they make on the form that opens the report.
-- I have tried to set .OrderBy
-- I have tried to set .RecordSource to different queries with order by hardcoded in them (I only have 2 sort options fortunately)
Is there a way to dynamically change the "Sorting and Grouping" defined in the report? This seems to be the only sorting that the report is responding to.
I have a form with an option group. Within the option group I have a series of queries (all records, closed records, open records, etc.) to sort the data. Everything works fine.
My issue is a cosmetic one. When I change the query via running a report versus the option group, the option group doesn't reflect the correct status (e.g., I run a report for all closed records but the option group still shows All Records). In my VBA, is there a line I can write to change the option group appearance from All to Closed, without clicking on the option group itself?
Hi
I've got an Option Group with 3 options; Yes, No and Future.
I also have a range of Check Boxes; 1 for every day of the week.
When one of the check boxes is selected I want the Option Group to change to Yes.
Currently, the Option Group defaults to Future and No will only be available by manually selecting it. This doesn't need to be changed.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Cheers
I have a question. Please see attached database.
I have an option group called is there another insurance
in the table in the description field i have 1=Y, 2=N 3=None
If you take a look a the report displays as 1 2 3
Is there anyway that instead of 1 2 3 it will display an X
And if none is selected will print nothing on the report.
One more question
I have a date field set as MM/DD/YYYY format
everytime i try to format it example =now
Display computer date as well as time
is there any way that i can post the date only.
I stumbled upon the Option Group function just yesterday and, happy as a clam, I created a group with 2 options in radio button style. I assigned the values to a field called Registration_Type as the 2 options are "Confirmed Registrants" and "Prospective Attendees".
[Great. That part works well. When I look at the table, a 1 or a 2 is in that field so it's great to know how to control accidental ticking of radio buttons (previous 450 records or so didn't have this option group functionality so one might easily tick one of the buttons. So one part of controlling option group I know I can handle via the table itself for now.]
The challenge is how to ensure the user always ticks one or the other ... I went back to the main table and tested the 'required entry' option for the Registration_Type field but forcing an action like this is not ideal in my mind. The usual error message vagueness for the average user is no good and I don't want to limit the user so much.
Is there a way to simply have a popup come up warning that neither radio button was ticked? Perhaps something linked to the form - i.e., maybe "after update"?? I only learned about attaching code to before and after update on controls a couple of days ago, so not sure if this would be best approach.
Just something to let the user know that nothing has been ticked in the option group as that controls in which of 2 reports the data will show up in so any record not ticked might mean a registrant being left out, which would be rather disastrous <g>.
I have a database, in this database I have a "group and sort" set up on a report that I built from the database. The report is sorted by the "shape" field, then the "weight" field. The weight field is where I am having an issue. I have values in this field that range from .01 to 9. whatever..... nothing has ever gone over 9.*.
We now have a item with a 10.* value and when access sorts the report the "10" weight item is listed at the bottom of the 1's not after the 9's. I need to have access treat the 10 as a larger number than 9 not as the end of the 1's. So right now 10 is right before it goes to 2, I need it to be after 9. Is this possible ?
Hi all,
My problem is as follows:
I am trying to generate a report, which is based on a query, which references a form that has an option group containing four options.
I want to sort the data according which option group radio button has been selected (they the values of 1,2,3,4).
Originally there were only 2 options and the query said (in SQL view):
ORDER BY IIf(Forms!frm_08_reportsort!opt_sort_by=1,TBL_Acco untManager.Name,TBL_SiteContactDetails.SchoolName) ,
This works fine for 2 options, but I can't figure out what command i should use for more than 2 options :confused:
Any help would be much appreciated :)
I used an option group to classify a record in my database. It works great for this purpose, but I am at the point now of creating a query, and I would like to query based on these classifications (or options). Is this possible to do?
Also, for the option buttons, the value is numeric. When I create the Query (or a report off of that query) I would like the actual text values to display, not the data value Access is using.
Is there a way to duplicate, triplicate, a record based on an option group selection. i.e.
Form
Field: Option group
Value = 1
Value = 2
Value = 3
Field 2:
Field 3:
Field 4:
and so on.
Basically if value 1 is selected, then I fill out the rest of the fields hit enter and go to a new record. But if value 2 or 3 is selected, I fill out the the fields, hit enter. The information is recorded said number of times based on the selection in the option group. Ideally I would have2 or 3 of the same record in the db, with different Primary keys of course.
Is there a way to have an expression in the control source of a text box in a report, that re-starts or is exclusive for every group within the report?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm working on a project where I must save roughly 1000 individual access reports based on the group to a specific folder in pdf format.
Problem:The code I found on this site works, but not exactly the way I need it to. Using the current code (pasted below) all of the pages of the report are being saved to pdf for each group, instead of just the single page. For example, all 1000 pages of the report are being saved to each pdf file, when I only want the 1 page for each of the groups.
I believe that the problem lies in the filter for the Open Event code, but I don't know how to modifiy it to make it work the way I need.

I am using Access 2007.I have a report that has 2 subreports within it.One of the sub reports input is from a table (Work Order Parts) whose records have a field called "DisplayOrder". This is a numeric field that I use to enable the user to specify the exact order that they want the records to be displayed in a form or report...well that's the plan anyway.
I can't seem to get the subreport to sort on the "DisplayOrder" field.
I have tried to set the Property value "Display Order" to "[Workorder Parts].DisplayOrder" but this doesn't seem to make a difference. The "Order By on Load" is set to "Yes".
Here is the "Record Source" value : SELECT DISTINCTROW [Workorder Parts].*, Parts.PartName, [Workorder Parts].Notes FROM Parts INNER JOIN [Workorder Parts] ON Parts.PartID = [Workorder Parts].PartID;
What am I doing wrong?
I'm creating an employee survey database and I'm using option groups for collecting general information such as office, department, etc. My question is can I make it a requirement for them to answer an option group before moving on to other questions? I'm trying to control and track how many employees have taken the survey. Right now I can skip these general information questions and just go into the survey questions so I'm trying to prevent that. Also in the same train of thought is it possible to not save any incomplete surveys? Say I have 50 questions and someone starts the survey but only answers 10 questions and then exits for whatever reason. I would like that record to be deleted so it does not count. If I allow incomplete surveys then I can get skewed numbers.
As always you help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

I have a form where the users need to update an option group when they enter any information on the form.
The problem is that the users don't always update this option group.
The option group does not have a default value and has only two options.
When the user updates a form they need to choose a value.
One problem though, they may have to go in and update the form later and this action may cause them to change the option selected within the group.
Is there code I can use to alert them to first update the option group when updating the form and second to change the value within the option group when they need to.
Option Group --- Incomplete and Complete
Date Resolved can trigger the Complete option to be updated
I am seriously thinking we should make Incomplete the default value and then I would only need code for changing the option group from Incomplete to Complete.
However, Management wants the Option Group so we can run a report that lists all of the Incomplete and Null values within it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks...
I am using an Access database for a foreign language dictionary project.
One of the forms I use is populated by a query (qryLemmaTable) to retrieve information from tblLEMMA.
This form works precisely as I intend it to work, but there is a glitch on it that is driving me mad.
The form in question has an option group with 11 radio buttons that correspond to the parts of speech associated with each word in tblLEMMA.
When I click on the button optAdjective I apply a filter and the only records that are displayed are adjectives. (The same applies for Nouns, Verbs, Prepositions etc.)
Here is the glitch: even though the radio buttons apply the filter correctly, no “black spot” appears in the button. Other signals on the screen let me know what word type is selected, so I can accomplish what I want, but I want the “black spots” too!
Perhaps this will be a clue: For each radio button I use the following code in the GotFocus event.
Me.FilterOn = False
Me.Filter = "wordtype = 'A'" ‘(or N, etc)
Me.FilterOn = True
And this for the Lost Focus event
Me.FilterOn = False
Thanks for the help.
I was wondering is this was possible in access. I've read material on grouping and sorting, but haven't been able to pin down what I need.
I have a combobox field that has 14 entries, beginning with 01 as the first two characters. What I'd like to do is change the order in which everything is displayed on the report.
For instance, show 07 at the top, then 09-13 below that, and so on...
I have a query that i need to run from a form. From form I need to pass criteria
1 for canada
2 for us
1 and 2 for us and Canada
The criteria needs to go into field Pricing Type. If user selects 1 then only Pricing Type 1 will display. If user selects 2 than only Pricing Type 2 should display. I user selects both , Pricing Type 1 and 2 should be listed.
Can this be achieved with option group?
I am trying to print a report based on the filtered results of a form where the data record source is generated from a query. What I have is five unbound comboboxes on a form that filter the results of the query on a subform which works fine in whichever combination I set, I then want the report to print out the results of the filter and the filter combination that I used - basically exactly as it appears on the form (I have used the same query / subform in the report with text boxes to show the filters used on the form). My VBA skills are quite limited (but improving!) and I have trawled the web trying different code examples but can't seem to get it nailed. Current filter code follows;
Code:
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Private Sub PrntConfigReport_Click()
[Code].....
I am using the Navigation form and I have a tab that has all the sales quotes for a particular salesperson. Because my salespeople like to work with paper I have created sub tabs which contain a report with the same information but filtered based as follows: this Month, this year, and Last year. This report needs to be printable based on the filtered information so I created a print button within the report however when clicked it prints the entire report not the filtered report.
The filter criteria is located in the navigation button, navigation where under the data properties. I have the on click event of the button set to open the report in print preview but I need to know how I filter the where in the macro to read the criteria from the active navigation button property?
I have a report with a table as the row source. I have command buttons that opens different forms and allows the user to choose criteria, the form then filters the report based on the chosen criteria in the form, but if I use the destination city form to filter the report by destination city, then filter the report using a different form, the destination city filter is lost, is there a way to filter the report with a form by say destination city, then further filter that dataset with another form for say location city.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI have a rather annoying and frustrating problem which I cannot find a solution for through searching the forum.
The situation is that I have a parent form with 1 unbound subform, the source of which is determined by the part number selected in the parent form (diffetrent parts have different fields of the source table displayed)
This all functions perfectly well in all but one case which is when the source of the subform is a form with an option group.
There is only 1 form like this, and the problem I have is that when tabbing through the fields, as soon as I tab into the option group the parent form disappears, and I am left with just the subform on screen! Clicking into the group is fine, just tabbing to it causes the problem, and if I remove the option group then tabbing through all the rest of the fields is fine...
I could powssibly change the option group for a set of option buttons and code them to function a bit like an option group, but this would mean changing the code for numerous reports etc. and I don't really want to do that if I can help it.
I have a report with 2 option groups, I cannot get both of them to filter the data simataneously, they will each inititally filter the data, but when the opposite group it clicked, the previous filter data does not remain filtered. I have posted the code for the two option groups, I know I'm doing something wrong.
First option group code:
Private Sub Frame43_Click()
Select Case Me.Frame43.VALUE
Case 1
Me.Filter = "allowable_weight Like '263000'"
Me.FilterOn = True
