Mar 26, 2006
Right the thing is i can export my reports to word but when they export they don't hold the lines that i placed around the text boxes, this is becoming quite annoying as the reason i put the lines around the boxes,was so when the report is output it looks like the original.

I've got a word mail merge document that is formatted exactly how I want it. I'm using an Access 2003 database to populate the word 2003 mail merge document.What I would like is to use a access report rather than a mail merge but correctly formatting everything is going to take me forever.
Is there any way I can use the word document I already have to enforce the formatting or must I spend hours positioning each line of text by eye and guessing where on my report it must go to match the word doc?

I have a report with four subreports. If the subreports have no data I have a formula to put the word 'none' in the first field as follows:
=IIf(IsNull([Question]),"None",[Question])
I do a print preview and the word 'None' shows up and subreport looks good when I view just the subreport as well as when I view the full report.
When I print the subreport the text '#Error' prints. When I print the full report I just get a blank space.
I need the subreport to print with the word 'None' if there is not data. How do I accomplish? I tried the above formula both in the query and in the control source of the report. It just comes up blank when I put it in the query.

I have been printing reports in pdf format, and the jpg company logo is blurry; my boss did not approve.....
Yet the same image in Word or Excel prints very clear.
I tried bmp, png, tif, etc., with no luck.
I finally figured out that if I check "Standard" publishing in Access then my images are clear.
But, I have to check the Standard box every time I print.
Is there a way to change the default pdf printing in Access to Standard???

I have a report that groups by a project name and then a repeating field to list all associated detail having to do with the project. Then the projects loop to the next.Each project row is the same height as the combined detail rows. And to be able to print guidelines just as you would with a word table.
+-------+-----------------+---------+
| Project |.-detail row 1......| Open.....|
|...........|.-detail row 2......|.............|
|...........|.-detail row 3......|.............|
+-------+-----------------+---------+
This is what currently happens.
+-------+-----------------+---------+
| Project.|.-detail row 1......| Open.....|
+-------+-----------------+---------+
............|.-detail row 2......|
............+-----------------+
............|.- detail row 3......|
............+-----------------+
I'm thinking I need to do it with vba putting each into a variable then set the field to be the value of the variable. but i'm also not sure how to do that as it repeats like that.

I'm trying to add the information from a form and subforms to a report. This would be a medication mar sheet and needs to be in the format of the attached word document. I'm happy to do it in a report and change the formatting if that will work better. The personal info needs to go at the top and the medication needs to be listed on each sheet.
The form is called FrmMarSheet. It basically needs the info from that like the "sample mar sheet.doc". I can only get one medication per page to work at the moment.

I was thinking today if it is possible to fill Access reports based on a specific Word template? I don't want to populate a Word file with Access data as users of my app might not all have Word. Or is there another solution using a WYSIWYG editor where users can format everything according to their needs? That would be fantastic.

I have developed a database using Access 2010. This is split into a Front End and a Back End.
In the same folder as the Back End I store a number of user modifiable files in either bitmap (.bmp) or MS Word (.doc to retain compatibility with older versions).
Unfortunately, the drive letter where the back end resides will change from location to location and I can't do anything about that.
I have set up a function that returns the location of the folder where the docs reside irrespective of the back end drive location, and this works perfectly with OLE linked pictures but not with OLE linked Word documents. User changes show correctly in Word document changes at locations with the original drive assignment but other locations show only the original doc contents even though they have been changed on the local back end location. - even if I delete the Source Item info on the report!!
An example of the code I am using for the Source Item is <GetBackEndPath() & "Footer.doc"> without the angled brackets of course, where GetBackEndPath() is a global variable storing the location of the documents folder ending with a back slash.
I have tried the above in the reports Source Doc property but Access won't accept this and says it isn't valid for this property.

I need to replicate an existing report that has a number of 3 columns across the page and has 35-40 rows down the page...it's like a table in Word or a spreadsheet in Excel. I need to print the column and row lines.
Is there a simple way to include these in the report other than me drawing each and every line?

My end goal is to populate a pre-existing table in an MS Word document with records from a query. The easiest way I've found (through scouring the internet) is to start with the code below (ran during OnClick() even in Access) to get the table the same size as the recordset:
Code:
Dim wDoc As Word.Document
Dim wTable As Word.Table
Dim wCell As Word.Cell
Set wDoc = appWord.Documents.Add(strDocLoc)
wDoc.Visible = True
[Code] ....
The code will shrink the table down just fine if the table has more rows than the recordset +1 (for header column). My hangup with this is the last line ("Selection.InsertRowsBelow 5") isn't executing; rows are not being added to the table. I get no errors -- it just does nothing. I set it as "Selection.InsertRowsBelow 5" arbitrarily just to see if it would even add rows, and sure enough it's not.

Hi,
I am exporting a table to word and I have come across a problem.
My code opens a template, creates a table with the correct number of rows and columns at a certain position, and then adds data to it.
At this point, everything is fine. But, here is where the problem sticks its ugly head out. I am modifying the column widths and every other time I run it, it crashes, saying something about not being able to access the remote server. Run time error 462.
I have checked in the task manager that word is being quit properly each time and tried going to different templates.
The first time I run it, it runs fine. The second time, it crashes on the line where I change the width. Here is the line of code.
mytable.Columns(1).Width = InchesToPoints(1.2)
I have found that if I close the document after it is created and leave word open, it will run fine.
I think I am in the same boat as mrpauly. But his post date is 23rd April 2001…
http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=26363
Has anyone else seen or heard anything like this? I’m really confused…
Thanks for any help anyone can give.

Exporting datasheet to word, how is this possible using vb. Actually, I do have a thread in Form forum. But, I think not a lot of people visit that place. Anyways, I have created bookmarked and used datavariable to export the data (by ansentry's help). But the only thing that it exports is just one selection on that datasheet, instead of all the chosen rows.
I am exhausted now after searching everywhere, and not finding a clue. How to resolve that situation. If there is an example that I can use, that would be gr8.
Thanks In Adv.

Im having a problem getting this code to work.
It is meant to fire up Word (which it does), open up a new doc based on the template (which it also does) and then populate a field in the doc with data from the query table (which it doesn't).
I've put the fields in the Word doc via firstly, defining them as Custom Document Properties in the File, Properties box, and then as "{ DOCPROPERTY "<fieldname>" *MERGEFORMAT }" codes in the text.
The field in the Word doc is type 'text' and the field in Access is type 'text', so I am stumped by the "Type Mismatch" error it gives when attempting to get/open the recordset.
It hasnt even got to transferring the values across to the doc.?
Ive not done this before (Access newbie) and even found creating the custom fields in Word not as straighforward as I expected!
Please can someone help?
Private Sub butDocPreview_Click()
Dim dbs As Database
Dim objDocs As Object
Dim objWord As Object
Dim prps As Object
Dim rst As Recordset
Dim strClient As String
Dim strAccountManager As String
On Error Resume Next
Set objWord = GetObject(, "Word.Application")
If Err.Number = 429 Then
'Word is not running; creating a Word object
Set objWord = CreateObject("Word.Application")
Err.Clear
End If
On Error GoTo cmdWord_ClickError
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
'Open query..
DoCmd.OpenQuery "qryClientDocHdr_Export"
intCount = DCount("*", "tmpClientDocHdr")
Debug.Print "Number of Text items: " & intCount
' Check that there is at least one line..
If intCount < 1 Then
MsgBox "No text to process; cancelling"
Exit Sub
End If
Set dbs = CurrentDb
'==stops here with "Type Mismatch" error==
Set rst = dbs.OpenRecordset("tmpClientDocHdr", dbOpenDynaset)
With rst
strClient = Nz(![Client])
strAccountManager = Nz(![AccountManager])
End With
rst.Close

To queries here:
Database is the MS Contacts Template with minor adjustments.
1. Trying to insert a link to an image using a bound OLE object in my form. Now I've got it top work. However, the link appears normal size in the centre of the object box. Problem is when I resize the oject box so that llink text just fits fine. The text resizes with the box and you need a microscope to read it.
2. I want to be able to cerate merged letter but I cant select Tools>Merge it with MS word fro some reason (i've aslo tried with with DB's we use in work with same problem) but publish with Word is available.:confused:
I am by no means an expert with Access so please, please post replies in lamens terms.
Thanks,
Marc

Hi,
This is my First post - so please be kind. I'm quite new at coding things and have learnt almost every thing from this forum so far by search old posts but can't find the answer to the below. I know how frustrating it must be to answer the same question over and over again so if this has been answered before please accept my appologies and if you could direct me to the old post I'll pick it up from there.
I have managed to get my DB to output to Excel using the below code:
Set Xl = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
Xl.Visible = True
Xl.Workbooks.Open ("C:TEMPPACLPACL - Blank") ',,True
Xl.range("C8").Value = [Text78]
Xl.range("C9").Value = [tender name]
Xl.range("C10").Value = [Request Number]
Xl.range("F10").Value = [Accepted offer]
Xl.range("C14").Value = [Site Status]
Xl.range("C16").Value = [Accepted offer SPO]
Xl.range("C17").Value = [Type]
Xl.range("C19").Value = [Mpan]
Xl.range("C20").Value = [HH MOP]
Xl.range("C32").Value = [Payment Terms]
Xl.range("C13").Value = [No of sites]
Xl.range("C4").Value = [Text173]
Xl.range("A47").Value = [Additional comments]
I now need to do the same for word;
I have managed:
Dim oApp As Object
Set oApp = CreateObject("Word.Application")
oApp.Visible = True
oApp.Documents.Open ("C:TEMPQuatation") ',,True
but I have no idea how to get the info held in field [tender name] in my database into the Ln 5, col 10 in my word document.
I hope this makes sense, any help will be greatly received as I am very new at this and very eager to learn.

Hi there
I have a table in my database with a field called description. Imagine if one of my discriptions is "I learn a lot in access world forums". I need a query that if I look only for a word "access" will retrieve this discription. Is this possible to be done in access?
Thanks
