Access 2007 Windows Vista GOAL: Display linked images in image control, and to ultimately to export reports to pdf to share with family by email or to print ERROR: There isnt enough free memory to update the display. Close unneeded programs and try again.
Ive created a DB for family heirlooms and as part of this Ive included images. Ive done this by storing the filename of the picture as text in the table tblPicture with a one to many relationship to the tblItem. This allows for many pictures of the item itself. I wanted to be able to show the most represent able photo of each item and added a checkbox titled primary picture to the tblPicture. I use this value in the querys to filter out all but one image per record.
I've added around 450 items to date, many of which have multiple pictures. I have started to run into some memory trouble now when running a few query driven reports.
I have stored only the file name in a text field in a table of the DB. I store all of my images in an images folder that is relative and constant to the DB location. I use code to display the images on the form with no problems (yet).
For displaying images on my reports, 1. I check to see if the record has an image path stored 2. If not I set the image control on the report to nothing 3. If there is a relative path stored I collect the DB path, and add the relative path and set the image control to that concatenated path
Code: Private Sub Detail_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer) Dim strDBPath As String Dim strRelativePath As String Dim strPath As String
[code]...
Lastly, I have a few different pre-built reports that generate any number of records. I can select by the original owner of the item. If that person has only a few items to their name I have no problems.how can I set up my report to display my reports with images to avoid the lack of memory. Is using the image control and setting the picture property in code wrong?
In the access form I want to add a button with a special functionality.
After clicking "Select file" button special window should be open (or something else). It should give user a possibility of files locating (doc, pdf, rtf, txt ...).
After selecting the file and confirm the choice in the table "File_location" in database path to the file should be saved .
I create several reports for several different companies. Report data is the same but the report header data changes based on the company selected. All works well until I attempted to add their individual logos. I have tried many of the suggested methods both here and elsewhere to set the image path in Image.picture and image.control source. But I get "windows can't open file". Access 2010 on Windows10 insists on using the insert picture window when i select an image control. There is a drop down in the property sheet. I've gotten it to work a couple times but then its gone after restart.
The header data comes from a table [Company] which has the fields - name, addr, phone, path to image, and active(yes/no)
I'm producing PDF reports in a VBA routine in Access through the DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport.
The routine works great, however i have now a new requirement and i need to change the report header so to if Country X is selected in a drop-down menu, then only image X is shown on the report header; if country Y is selected then only image Y is shown on report header.
I was simply thinking to make this through the "visible" option of the image, however it doesn't work because i get error "report must be open".
i have a database. the database have a table called CardDetails in this table there is like 1000 rows.The table have a field named MedicalId. and i have a folder . it's destination (D:CardPic) . this folder contains 1000 pic has the same names as the medical ids....i need to make a report and show on it these pic's the database doesn't have a afield that contains the path.i need to auto display the images on the report depending on the medical id.
I need to know if exist the system in Access 2007 to output a report in word document including images. Normally the output is "*.rtf", with a quite good quality but due to the file type it doesn't include the pictures.
I have a report, which opens a dynamic search form (built off of John Big Booty's code from this site). The form opens, and works as expected.During the dynamic search form testing, I created an 'OK' button that opens another form to display the record, but the dynamic search was opened first.
I would like to reprogram the button to display the selected record in the report which opened it.How can I get the selected record to display in the already open report?
I have several text boxes which I can populate using the DLookup.I have images I want to display for individual records.I use a search (textbox) to input client name and this populates all other textboxes. I am trying to get the relevant image to display also using this search box. I have also disabled record selectors just tidy up the form. I have tried coding the image control on the AfterUpdate event of the search box. Full path to images are stored as JPG in my ClientTable not as OLE.
I have a report in Access 2010. The report contains some images in the main report area and in sub reports. I have The queries that feed the report and subreport contains the name of the pictures that are loaded into its image controls. I added the following code to my form in order to control what image is displayed for each record. Id like the form to work even if the database is moved as long as the subfolder and photos are moved along with it (thus using relative path).
Code: Private Sub Report_(Current) Dim ImagePath As String Dim ImagePathInt As String Dim ImagePathPlanV As String
[code]...
The problem seems to be that the routine doesn't seem to initially recognize the path. I have a blank photo in the folder containing all the images called NO PHOTO.jpg. If I open the report in design view and browse to this image in the picture parameter of any one of the image controls and run the report, then everything works perfectly even if I close and reopen the report. The report shows the right pictures even in the subreports.
The problem is when I close the database and reopen it, then the link is lost again, forcing me to do the process of browsing for the NO PHOTO image again. I already try to do an open form procedure to automatically reset the picture property, but although it resets the picture to the picture I set (I verify this by setting a different picture instead of the NO PHOTO) it does not make things work correctly as it does when I manually browse for it in design view. I also try to run the code above under the Report (Open) instead of the Report (Current) but that didn't work either.
I have a report that generates the position of certain items. When I produce this report it doesn't put the data in order. All associated data with that position is correct, it is just not in numerical order. The attached screenshot shows the issue I am having. In the position column it should read 1,2,3,4 but in some cases the positions are not in order.
One is a list of fishermen with all their info. I used a Code as the primary key.
The 2nd is a fish ticket sheet with fish tickets entered and the code in there as a foreign key in the relationship between the two.
I create a report listing the fish tickets and prices perfectly for the 4 fishermen I have entered fish tickets for. (I have 140 fishermen in the main table)
I added a 3rd table for payments made to the fishermen. There are two payments for 2 of the fishermen.
then, I go into report design view and drag in two of the cells from that 3rd table into my report.
The problem is the report then prints JUST the fish tickets and payments for the two fishermen that have payments...not the info for all 4 fishermen. I need to print out settlements for all the fishermen whether they have payments or not?
I can't get my reports' unbound field's to display the criteria parameter I enter when report is opened. I have done this before but not in Access 2010.
In my parameter, I do have a long string inside the brackets (e.g. =[Enter START Date "1/1/14" or Leave Ranges Blank to show ALL]). I am wondering if this or the quotes inside the brackets are causing it not to work.
I am new to Access forms and need some help. I did some research and figured out to display images in Acess Forms while getting the image path from a text field in the table. The images are suppose to change for each record. I have no problem displaying the first image a different image for each record but I am having problems displaying the second image. I have to 2 different fields for both image paths in the table. Here is the code:
Private Sub Form_Current() On Error Resume Next If Not IsNull(Me![Image1]) Then Me![ImageFrame1].OLETypeAllowed = 1 Me![ImageFrame1].SourceDoc = Me![Image1] Me![ImageFrame1].Action = 0 Else Me![ImageFrame].SourceDoc = "C:Documents and SettingsAll UsersDocumentsMy PicturesSample Pictureso-image.bmp" Me![ImageFrame].Action = 0 End If
If Not IsNull(Me![Image2]) Then Me![ImageFrame2].OLETypeAllowed = 1 Me![ImageFrame2].SourceDoc = Me![Image2] Me![ImageFrame2].Action = 0 Else Me![ImageFrame2].SourceDoc = "C:Documents and SettingsAll UsersDocumentsMy PicturesSample Pictureso-image.bmp" Me![ImageFrame2].Action = 0 End If End Sub
The problem is that the function returns after 'Me![ImageFrame].Action = 0' and doesn't go to the part where I am checking if the 2nd image exists. If I take out 'Me![ImageFrame].Action = 0' then it doesn't display the first image and goes on the 2nd image and displays the 2nd image. So that he bottom line is, with this code I can only display one image (either f1st or 2nd). Also, I tried using .Picture property instead of .SourceDoc but that doesn't work either. How can I change this so that I can display both images?
I really need to figure this out and will really appreicate any help. Thank you
It may seem a really silly question but is there any restrictions as to the file types that can be stored in an Access DB.
I havent used Access in a while, but have been asked by a friend to create a simple DB holding info about cars he is selling, he only wants to hold thumbnail images of the cars so I can either link or embed the pics! However if I try to link or embed a jpeg image nothing appears in the bound object frame except for the image title i.e. bmw325i.jpg if I do exactly the same with a bitmap image the pic is displayed???
The only other difference I have noticed is that in table view of the relevant table a bitmap appears as Bitmap Image whereas a JPEG appears as Package????
I've got the forms and queries in one .accdb file and my tables in a separate .accdb file. The forms file links to the tables in the tables file. The tables file resides in a folder called simply enough C:acc_tables and thats where i browsed to (obviously) when i set up the linkage.
One of the users does not wish (for whatever goddamn reason) to create a C:acc_tables file to stick the tables file in , and wants the tables file in some other folder.. Unfortunately this user does not have the skills to delete the existing links and re-link to the tables file after putting it in the folder he wants.
Where in the file that holds the forms and and queries do i find the path setting to the tables linked file? Can it be changed without deleting links and then re-linking?
Im trying to add a barcode to a report which I can scan with a barcode scanner. I have downloaded A code39 TrueType font and created a textbox and have put the following in the Data, Control source
Code: ="*" & [Barcode] & "*"
but when I print out the report its only converting the field barcode to a code 39 barcode and leaving "*" at either side of it. I know its not the font as if I open note pad, select the font and enter *1234* all is converted to a scanable barcode.
When I send a customer a work order, I want the final page to be a list of conditions of the current sale. In Word, it is nearly a full page of 7pt font with bold and italic. What is the best way to add this to the end of my report in Access?
I am trying to add text to a report. I am using Access 2007.My report is tied to a query. The query contains 2 fields-Hostname and MAC Address
I want run a report against the query, but need to add several commas. So the output of the report would look like this: hostname,MAC Address.
I then want to export the report to a plain CSV file.I thought I could just add a textbox with a comma in the report, but that didn't work well. When I added the text box, Access also created a column header that I did not need.I've also noticed that when exporting a report to CSV format, there are several characters (pipes and such), that work with the formatting of the report. Is there any way to remove this formatting?
I have small database in ms access which i am using for invoice creation. When invoice is created i save it as PDF. I would like merge another single Page PDF along with the report as 2nd page so end report is 2 page PDF.
Second how can i get 1 PDF from 2 ms access reports.
I have a report (report1) which is based on a single query (query1).
There is a second query (query2) which returns just a single value (say 100) and I want the result of the query2 to appear at the bottom of the report1. The query2 is not related to the query1 so I cannot join them.
When I insert a text box in the report1 and choose the query2 from the control source Access gives the error, "The Microsoft Access database engine does not recognize '' as a valid field name or expression".
