Reports :: Variable Size Boxes In Reports?
Dec 12, 2013
I'm trying to create a simple chart in Access but I can't seem to do it. I can create it very easily in Excel. It's just a simple posting of values that I want to give a report on with every record. I'm including an example of what I would like to do...(but with ACCESS, not Excel)
It's basically a set of scores for students. I remember reading somewhere how someone created a chart using VBA with boxes, and not the charting system in ACCESS but I can't seem to find that again.
Also, I want to be able to report on each student separately. That is, they are doing 6 tests and I want to show how they did on those tests with a simple bar graph.

I have now a report that span around 2 pages. It has subreports in the report that depening how many rows there are they can grow or shrink.I have the problem that the second page the top margin is to close to the top of the pager. The paper has a logo on the right top side. I can make the first page look nice under the logo, but the second page prints to close to the edge that prints over the logo. I did add a page break, but when the page 1 has more data, it flushes this to the next page. The page 2 is now page 3. How can I avoid that, or make it so that the margin of the second page/next page is on the correct lenght of the top. I tried it with the page setup, but it does not work.

I have a report that has Bill to and Ship to addresses. They are positioned across from one another (ship to on the right and bill to on the left of the page). The issue is that the 'can shrink' doesn't work when there is data in the same field on the other address..

I am creating a 2 level report to confirm an order. Main report already created, runs successfully called as subform/subreport under "OrderDetails" form. Linked to master using Order.ID. There are two versions of the confirmation report that have different layouts for different program types.
The hangup comes when I try to add a "Class Dates" subreport. It lists dates of individual classes and Skip dates. I have created the subreport as "srClassDates". When I add it to the main report, it lists the records. However, when I try to link it to the Main report, an error message box appears with the "object variable or With block variable not set".
I have tried rebuilding both the main and subreports, rebuilt the query, have not found anything that changes the result.
Linker has been working successfully on other subforms. Report with groupings works fine, but I need data from 2 tables both linked to order.id.

Runtime error '91'
Running Access 2010.
I have two reports running off of the same crosstab query. I copied one report to make the second report, then modified the second report to change the background of column fields satisfying certain conditions. These lines of code were added to the Detail_Format section, in color below. The report with the extra code lines does not error--the original report errors.
Code:
Option Compare Database
' Constant for maximum number of columns EmployeeSales query would
' create plus 1 for a Totals column. Here, you have 9 employees.
Const conTotalColumns = 11
[Code] .....
If I say OK (rather than debug) after the error message, I can then click the button for the report again and it runs without complaint. And, as I said, the report with the added code never errors.

I am creating a large report and I have reached the limit of the report page height at 55cm. Is there a way to change this value to 100cm or more.
It seems rather silly to put a limit on the size of a report.

I need to have the last page of a report in access print to an 8.5x11 instead of 11x17 (the rest of the report has to print 11x17). No clue how to set it up so it's automatic...

I have a form which gets information from the user and upon pressing a button I produce address labels for the user. The form calls a report which does the job. This works. Now the user would like to have parameters like fonttype, fontsize and fontcolour together with margins, row and column space so that the output can be better tailored to his needs. I have inserted combo boxes on the form to get these parameters from the user, but how am I going to insert these parameters in the report layout through programming. What should be the approach?

We are creating a report and for some reason we can no longer extend the detail section of the report. It has stopped at 2 A4 pages length and won't let us extend it further. We have about 7 pages of the report, I didn't think this was too much?

I have a function that capture a report activity ,open, close, updated by query, etc.... I have a report that has a inputbox on the open event that tell the user this date the report will display is from a previous update and ask if they want to run the query to update the data.
What I was hoping to do, is have this inputbox only fire if the date and time written when the last update occurs was 24 hours ago.
Can I capture the date and time that the function captures and writes to a table as a variable and you that date and time to detemine whether that inputbox fires?

I have always noticed that when creating a report, when you make a paragraph using a label, the alignment and size of the text/paragraph is always different when you preview the report than when you design it.
This makes alignment of paragraphs tricky, especially when you are trying to insert a bold faced word into the middle of a block of text by using a separate label.

I have a landscape oriented report which is A4 size. When I select Landscape in print preview the result is cut off on the right. In the form's design mode I get a little green triangle on the top-left which tells me that the form is wider than the page size. Is this because I am using a default printer with a portrait setting?
I want to avoid having to change the default printer for each different form orientation. I am printing to a pdf printer (pdfCreator which doesn't appear to have a landscape output setting) while testing my design so as not to waste ink & paper.
I am using Windows XP SP3 with Access 2007.

Ok, so now this is where it's getting more complicated... (though I guess this is where you guys usually start)
When you have a query, and you type in your inputbox thingy like so:
http://reenen.fateback.com/image.jpg
PeriodEnd: [Enter period end date dd/mm/yyyy: ]
And you can have multiple, then it will prompt you for several of them.
Now this is not very tidy, so I'd rather do it on a form. How can I display the form as the query/report runs, and insert the values entered into the form as the inputs into my variables? (This case PeriodEnd)

Grrr... I can't get the image to display.

I need to have the comparison variable (< or >) to be read from a field in the form.
Namely:
WHERE (((([PackagesCosts].[TotalCost]) & [Forms]![F_Reports]![Increased] & [C].[TotalCost])
Where [Forms]![F_Reports]![Increased] is the filed on my form.
What is wrong in the syntax (as it is not working properly)?

I have a form with 5 buttons on it. Each button is meant to select a warehouse location, so a query can be run to give an inventory report for that location. There is a separate query for each button and the OnClick event does properly modify the recordsource to give the appropriate data to the report for the location selected.
To this functionality I want the OnClick event VBA to pass the warehouse location to a textbox on the report, so the title of the report reflects that inventory location.
My code thus far is:
Private Sub Command5_Click()
Dim mySQL As String
Dim WHSE As String
mySQL = "SELECT [Master Part List].[Part Number], [Master Part List].Category, [Master Part List].Description, [Master Part List].MaterialCost, [Master Part List].Inventory, [Master Part List].Update, [MaterialCost]*[Inventory] AS [Total Cost], [Master Part List].Warehouse"
[Code] ....
When I get the report, the textbox is empty, instead of containing the text value for the warehouse location.

I have developed a quote form that is working well. I want to print out a Quotation to send to my customer. Currently it shows the Qty, Item ID# and description in the detail portion of report. In the report footer, currently it will print out, Subtotal, Freight and the resulting total.
A problem arose when I tried to add the total weight of the items in a quote to the report form. I get a "compile error...variable undefined" msg when I try to open up the report by clicking a "Print Report" button I have on the form.Here is the code that is highlighted by the error msg. the Undefined variable is dWtTotal n red below.
Private Sub ReportFooter_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer)
Me!txtSubTotal = dSubTotal
Me!txtDiscountValue = dDiscVal
Me!txtTotal = dTotal
Me.txtFreight = dFreight
' Me!txtTotalWithWork = dWithWork
'12-21-14 Add Total Job Wt to Report
Me.txtWttotal = dWtTotal
I feel like I have defined the variable with this code below which is in the first part of the VBC code that occurs when I click on the Print Quote button:
dSubTotal = 0
dDiscVal = 0
dTotal = 0
dWithWork = 0
dPkgPrice = 0
dTotPkg = 0
dDisc = 0
dVatVal = 0
dVatRate = 0
dFreight = 0
'Added 12-20-14
dWtTotal = 0

In the detail section of my report, I recently added a second row which has only 1 text field. When the value of the textbox in the 2nd row is null, I want the total row height equal to just the first row. When the value in the textbox in the 2nd row is not null, then the total row height is equal to row 1 and 2. I tried to make the textbox in the second row invisible when it had a null value thinking that when it was null, the report would shrink to the first row height, but that didn't seem to work.

I have a subroutine that successfully builds a SQL statement "strSQL", which is a public variable.
Using msgbox, I can read that the value is correct -
SELECT * from tblIncidents WHERE [Nature] = 'Hover';
(The select statement may be complex, e.g. [Nature] = 'hover' AND [COLOUR]= 'Blue' AND [GRADE] = 'High')
I want to pass the variable strSql to my report rptIncident in the following command:
Private Sub CmdPrintReport_Click()
If Right(strsql, 1) <> "'" Then 'check if statement was built
Else
strsql = strsql & ";" 'add trailing ; to statement
MsgBox strsql
DoCmd.OpenReport "tblincidents", acViewNormal, , strsql
End If
End Sub
I get a flashing error, then runtime error 3075 - |1 in query expression '|2'.

I have a report which shows the results of two separate queries in a simple table view.
One set of data varies in size depending on the amount of records and the other is a fixed size and never changes.
I'm wanting to make my report always show the fixed size data in the bottom right corner of the page when its printed.
I've tried putting it in the footer section of the report but don't want it to affect the size of the details section and just show next to the other query results.
Is this possible and if so how would I achieve this?

I have a report where I number pages based on the Store (muliple stores in report but page numbering resets when Store changes) I do this by manipulating the page number field on the report by code in the report sections to reset it and to increment it.
Code:
Private Sub GroupHeader0_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer)
Me!PageNum = 0
End Sub
Private Sub PageFooter_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer)
Me!PageNum = Me!PageNum + 1
End Sub
Private Sub ReportHeader_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer)
Me!PageNum = 0
End Sub
The report has a Page Header with various fields and labels and that's been fine however I've had a request to hide a field on subsequent pages (i.e. print it on the 1st page of each store then hide it).
So I added the following code to various sections, but can't get it to work correctly. The fields (label and text box) appear on Page 1 for the first store then get hidden but never return even though when I step through the code it is functioning 'correctly'. The GroupHeader code is performed but the fields don't get displayed on the report. I think is isn't re-painting that section but adding code to the Paint event does nothing, and in fact doesn't actually get run, so not sure when that event is triggered.
Code:
Private Sub GroupHeader0_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer)
Me!PageNum = 0
lblMemberNo.Visible = True
MemberNo.Visible = True
[Code] ....

(a) The On Open event of my report contains a VBA Sub that assigns a value to a variable named vShow. (Tracking the sub in VBA shows that vShow is correctly being assigned the desired value.)
(b) I then use vShow to try to control a calculation that occurs in one of the text boxes of the detail section in the report
(c) Basically, the control source of the textbox contains (in part) the statement (vShow>[fieldA]), which is embedded in a longer function.
(d) However, when I type this in at Control Source box of the Data tab of the the Property Sheet, Access always substitutes "[vShow]" for "vShow".
(e) So what I get is ([vShow]>[fieldA]), which treats vShow as the parameter of a parameter query.
ANY WAY TO OVERCOME THIS AND HAVE vShow recognized as the variable I defined at On Open? Perhaps there needs to be a variable declaration there, that I don't understand.
The basic form (vShow>[fieldA]) does not seem to be the problem, because I can enter, e.g. (500>[fieldA]) and everything works OK.

On design, layout and report view, everything looks exactly how I want it. However, when I display it in Print Preview mode, checkboxes appear about the Project Name.There's nothing in my report to show that I have these checkboxes on the report. Where these could be coming from and why they only show in the Print Preview layout?
