I have a problem when I try to combine in a text box a text and value from field in a table.
I would like to have a text like this:
Ref nr: 1
"Ref nr" would be a text in a report
"1" would be the nr of the ID of the client.
I tried:
="Ref nr " & [ID]
It simply does not work. No clue where I go wrong.
I am having trouble creating a specifically formatted report.
Anyway, I have two fields: [Title] (plain text) and [Description] (memo). I want to combine the two but have the Title bold underlined but not the Description. I want it to look like this:
This is the Title. And this is the decription part that could go on for many, many more lines...
I have tried combining the two fields like: =[Title] & [Description] but if I set the properly to underline, then the whole thing is underlined.
Since the Title will vary in length, I cannot just underline the Title and then put the Description field next to it.
Hi,
I am trying to combine 2 text fields into a new field (concatenate) so that I can use it as the primary field.
Can anyone pls help.
I'm trying to set the control source for a control on my report that describes the number of portions that goes into a box. Sometimes there is a specific number of portions per box and sometimes it's a range. When the number of units is specific, then it is entered into the MasterCaseMinUnits Field. If there is a range of units possible than the min is entered into MasterCaseMinUnits and the max is entered into the MasterCaseMaxUnits.
I want my report to look at the mastercasemaxunits, if it is blank it will only display what is in the MasterCaseMinUnits field. If there is a value in the masterCasemaxUnits field, then it will display the masterCaseMinUnits & " - " & MasterCaseMaxUnits. this is the code I'm Using:
Code:
=IIf(Nz([MasterCasemaxUnits],[MasterCaseMinUnits])=[MasterCaseMinUnits],[MasterCaseMinUnits],[MasterCaseMinUnits] & " - " & [MasterCaseMaxUnits])
When I run my report, the control displays: #Type!
I have a single field in a table called "Client Contact", where users enter a semicolon between the name, address, and city state & zip. My reason for this was so we could copy client info with a single copy and paste (like from an email). But, on the final report, it needs to have these three parts split up into different lines, or even different textboxes. I can't find a way to do that.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have two reports, "Quick Glance Report" and "Note Report". The Quick Glance Report comes from a query called (ACE/ARB Table Query) and the Note Report comes from a query called (notequery).
I want to be able to have a calculated field from the "Note Report" in the "Quick Glance Report". Am I able to show a calculated field from one report into another report and how would I do this (If I can that is)?
Hi all,
I have been given the task of cleaning up an old db. One thing I'd like to do is combine 3 text fields into 1 new field.
In the old db there was a form that included 3 memo text boxes, when the first one was full the user then started using the second and then the third. The relating Table fields are message, overflow message & overflow message extended.
I'd like to combine the fields into 1 and then design a new form to suit so that the memo text in the new db goes into 1 field only.
I understand that I can't set multiple "values" in a crosstab query but I need to have both a UPC and a price display in a report(Price List) for Our Exotic Wood selections like so:
Wood Type 4/4 5/4 8/4 12/4 16/4 20/4 24/4
Afr. Mahogany |||| ||| ||| |||| |||| |||| ||||
$15 $20 $30 $40 $50 $60 $70
Rosewood |||| ||| ||| |||| |||| |||| ||||
$15 $20 $30 $40 $50 $60 $70
I have 2 crosstab queries one that gets the price and one that gets the UPC I can join them and get it to print on every other line but there is no way that i can find to print two lines at a time in a report so my question is there a way to achieve the outcome described above with two crosstab queries? do I need more queries or a different kind of query?
I have a database that reports activities by region.
Each week, my regional volunteers report statistics on a number of club activities. This is in the form of zero to theoretically infinite activity reports that they enter on a website. I download the .csv from the website, add the activity reports to the activity table and send them a totals summary every now and then.
The summary report shows figures for every club in the region, even if no activity reports have been entered for that club that week or ever.
This works fine, including forcing the query to return zeros when no reports have been submitted for that club.
What I want to do is have the report also show (in brackets next to each figure) the position as it was X number of days previously.
I can make the query and report to show the figures now.
I can make the query and report to show the figures X days ago.
What I cannot work out is how to combine the two queries into one report source so that I can get
Club 1 100(50) 75(0) 45(45)
Club 2 0(0) 0(0) 0(0)
Club 3 20(19) 0(0) 200(50)
etc
If I try and make a third query that gets the sums from qryNow and the sums from qryXdaysago for each record in qryClubsByRegion, I get two lines for each club.
I wanted to combine 2 fields and a text in one text field on the access form.I have a field called "SentDateTime" and a field "Comment" I wanted to create it like this: MSD Message sent on 24/12/2014..I tried this formula in a unbound text field and it did not work:
Code:
=[Comment] & " " & "message sent on" & " " &[SentDateTime]
Code:
=J2& " " & "message sent on" & " " &TEXT(A2,"dd/mm/yyyy")
i intially, I wish to have attendance stats for 3 groups of people over 2 days in a report
i have the two queries for the raw data, but wish to combine into a report that will ultimately become a "dashboard" report for half a dozen queries., and can only get one or the other to work do i need to combine the queries into a summary query of sorts?
I have a report based on a parameter query. One of the parameters is TM Name. This parameter value is selected from a list box. The table on which the query is based also has TM Name as a look-up from a list. So ofcourse the ID is showing in the TM Name field on the report...not the actual name.
I am attempting to use a Dlookup to show the actual name than I will hide the field with the ID. Here's what I have as the control source:
=DLookUp("Name","TM_Names","[TM]=" & [Reports]![Report_TM_Records]![TM])
It is pulling in the value of the first row in the "Name" column of the "TM_Names" table. Doesn't seem to be looking at the value in the TM field on the reports.
My gut feeling is the report needs to be "saved" or "refreshed". I have tried a few macros to do this but I get errors.
how can I combine two text fields and format them as a date.
Text Field 1: Jan
Text Field 2: 2014
I have a form with attached subform from which I can choose which records to send to a report. All records in the base table have a comment text field for the user to enter additional data (comments). Typically, there are none, but when there is, if it is only a single record sent to the report, the comment is printed in the page footer. However, if there are multiple records being sent to the report and only one record has text in the comment field, unless it's the last record it the subform, it will not print in the report. There isn't enough room in the detail section to include the comment field (like I said, it's typically not used and when it is, they can be lengthy). Is there a way to get the comment field to print in the report page footer when it is not either the only record selected, or the last record?

I have a table "StoreInfo" that stores the store number, store address, etc as text fields. I then have created a query gathering this data, specifically store number and address as separate fields. When I run the query, the store number and address are correct. When I use that same query in a report, I have one specific store where all data appears on the report correctly except the store number. The store number is "007" but appears on the report as "137". I was able to correct the problem by changing the store number to eliminate the leading 0's.
Since the field is a text field, I just assumed I would not have any sort of problem with the leading 0's. Once I changed the store number to 107, the problem disappeared.
I have a report which when I open it by clicking the button in the form shows what looks like Chinese text in the memo field. To open the report the following is in the event properties for the referencing button
Code:
Private Sub cmdPrintSumReg_Click()
Dim strWhere As String
If Me.Dirty Then 'Save any edits.
Me.Dirty = False
[Code] ...
When I open the same report from the reports menu on the left of the database it is just fine. But obviously it is showing information for all contracts and not the any one contract.
I haven't changed anything in the table that contains the memo field and this only started happening yesterday afternoon after using this db for over a year.
I found an earlier post in this forum with a similar problem but the only difference I see is that the user changed the field from a text to a memo. I haven't.
I'm creating a report to check for over- or under-stocked items. The report is working fine, gets all the records etc. except that it thinks that the OnHand field from my inventory query is text or something, at any rate not a number. I have successfully set the format of the field in the query to General Number, but that doesn't seem to have worked. Here's the SQL for the report:
Code:
SELECT DISTINCT Signs.SignCode, Signs.SignDescr, Size2.XYdim, qryOnHand.OnHand, Bins.Rack, Bins.Level, Bins.BinNum
FROM (Size2 INNER JOIN (Signs INNER JOIN (Items INNER JOIN qryOnHand ON Items.[ItemsID] = qryOnHand.[ItemsID]) ON Signs.[SignID] = Items.[SignID]) ON Size2.[SizeID] = Items.[SizeID]) INNER JOIN (Bins INNER JOIN InventoryDetail ON Bins.[BinID] = InventoryDetail.[BinID]) ON Items.[ItemsID] = InventoryDetail.[ItemsID]
WHERE (((qryOnHand.OnHand)<=[Check for signs with fewer than:]));
I am generating a report that needs to have a hyperlink in part of one of the fields. Prior to saving the field to the database I do a bit of VBA coding on it and add some HTML. The result is this in the field:
"There are two ways to book with your preferred rate: <br>
1. <b><a href="http://hamptoninn.hilton.com/en/hp/reservations/index.jhtml?hotel=ABGVA&corporateCode=12345">Click Here</a></b>! <br>
2. Call us directly or at 1-800-Hampton and use your Corporate ID 12345."
It works beautifully if you paste it into a web page but in the Access report, Access applies the Bold but just ignores the hyperlink.
This is Access 2013 with MS SQL Server 2008 backend. Everything I have read suggests that this should work and is supported. Is there some trick I'm missing?

I have a report based on a query. I want to populate 6 Text Boxes with Dates from fields in another query. The date fields I want to add will be headings for columns that represent weeks (they change all the time so can�t be hard figures). The two queries are not really related by any common field. I am not able to get this working because the fields I want are not part of the query that is the Record Source for the Report.
Is there any way that I can do this? Can I change the record source of just the text boxes?
I created a form letter as an Access 2007 report. I want the greeting to read, "Dear [first_name]," e.g., "Dear Alan,". The [first_name] field is bound to said field in a query. When I just use the [first_name] field, I get "Dear Alan" with no comma. I've tried to add the comma various ways:
"=Trim[first_name] & ",", "=[first_name] & ,", "=Trim([first_name] & ","), etc., etc.
Any addition to the basic field produces the "#Type!" error. I also created labels from the same query using
"=Trim([first_name] & " " & [last_name])",
and that works fine.
I would like to append a text item to each value in a calculated field. consider the field name is "Division" and I want to append the word "Division" to the values put out by the field "Division"
My attempt was: Division & " " & "Division". This produced an error in the report.
I have an Access 2010 database with a memo field formatted for Rich Text.
I created a simple form. It accepts and shows paragraphs, i.e. I press Return and a new paragraph appears (with a blank line in between paragraphs).
I then created a report based on the same fields. In the memo field it shows the text entered in the form, but not the paragraph breaks. It just shows one big block of text without any paragraph breaks. I have looked for a field property in the report design and layout views that might affect how the text is displayed in the report but I cannot find one.
It is not much use if you can input paragraph breaks in a form but not see them in a report.
I am wondering if there is a way to automate the pasting function of text from one field into several others in a table without losing the data that is already in the field.
As an example: in 20 fields I have "I love potatoes" and I want to paste the text string, "And I love tomatoes too" in every field without overwriting the original text.
Thanks.
Steve
