Reports :: Printing Current Linked Records Only
Jan 7, 2014
I have a main form with a subform. The subform has linked tables from the main form. People are on the main form with the index PersonId and they are linked to incidents by IncidentId.
I want to put in two buttons.
First put a print report button for each subform whereby it will only produce a report for the records I can see on screen . i.e. if a person is linked to two incidents I just want the report for those two incidents.
Secondly I would also like a print all button on the subform where it prints reports containing the current IncidentId number.

Hi Guys (again),
Hope you can help and I'll explain this as well as I can but I've put it in general as it's a culmination of things.
I have written a call monitoring database for a call centre (all good so far), but they want historical searches (again all good). I've written the relevant queries for these so that the searches can be done for Adviser, Manager and also by a date range. However, they now want to be able to print out the current search from the screen.
The way I have done it is this. I have written the report be adding in a subreport and putting in the relevant historical search form, and then written a macro that is assigned to a button on the historical search form to print the current record.
The problem that I am having is that when they click on the button to give them the history they fill in the relevant advisor or manager name and the date range which gives them the info in form format but, when they click on the button to print the current 'screen' if you like, it asks for the information again. I know this is because the actual report is written from the same query but is there anyway that it will just print what's displayed on the screen? I don't do VBA so if it has to be done that way could you please display it as it should be inserted.
I do hope that that has made sense and that someone can at least help me, cos you're all wonderful and I've had some really excellent help in the past from this site.
Thanks in advance.

I have to print address labels. 10 x 3.8 cm labels 2 per row 14 per page on an A4 paper. Pretty straightforward one should say. But no. I play around with the margins, column heights and widths, row and column spacing page size wasting time. Is there a hidden and not documented relationship between those elements? For example how is the column height and row spacing linked together? How is this normally done in a professional way?

I have a table with those fields:
Name date(d,m,y)
John smith 1/2/2013
Mary loe 25/2/2013
Mary loe 1/3/2013
Jim tonel 3/3/2012
Jim tonel 5/3/2012
I want to create a report or query that will calculate how many times a name appears in current month(03/2013) and if not it should return 0.
For example the report or query should look like this:
Name count
John smith 0
Mary loe 1
Jim tonel 2

I was having trouble just setting each report with a particular print method - for some reason they just kept forgetting their individual settings and resorting to default on the machine.
This meant reports were printing on the wrong paper, or the wrong size paper, the wrong orientation and some times refusing to print if it couldn't find the paper (which is useful in runtime as it doesn't display error messages)
So I used Reports(rpt).printer properties (I forgot where I found this) to hard code the printer properties into each print command... this meant I had to use another function to insert the variables.
So all I had to do was say:
Code:
PrintMe("Invoice","InvoiceID",iID)
and a report would print to exactly how I wanted... but it's just too slow!
See attached for full code, I have a niggling feeling it may be the function: PrinterOK, to make sure the printer exists or not.
Code:
Function PrinterOK(sPrinterName As String) As Boolean
Dim MyPrinter As Printer
PrinterOK = False
For Each MyPrinter In Printers
If MyPrinter.DeviceName = sPrinterName Then
PrinterOK = True
Exit Function
End If
Next
End Function
I know it's the printing code, because if I stop the printing and just preview then it shows up almost instantly.

When I print queries (and maybe forms) I would like to have the date printed on the sheet so I know when I printed it out. How should I do this??

This could go in forms or reports, I think but:
I have a database which I am developing over time as I see ways of improving it and as I learn bits of vba. My current problem relates to invoicing (that I have probably created for myself!): I currently have two invoice report layouts because of different invoicing addresses.
I now want to add a cmd button to my invoice entry form that will firstly preview, then print the current record. I found elsewhere in the forum a way of previewing just the current record by way of specifying in the underlying qry the ClientID so that it selects the record displayed on the form.
I have this line of code which then previews the invoice:
DoCmd.OpenReport "rptInvoicePrivateClients", acViewPreview
This does not take account, though of the different invoice layouts.
I think strictly speaking I should only have one invoice report, but what I want to say is this:
If the client is a private client, then preview rptInvoicePrivate,
Else preview rptInvoiceLocumWork
I have tried entering this code that does not work
If SolicitorID = "1" Then
DoCmd.OpenReport "rptInvoicePrivateClients", acViewPreview
Else
DoCmd.OpenReport "rptInvoiceLocumWork", acViewPreview
End If
It comes back with a message that SolicitorID is not defined, but I have included Option Explicit.
Any help please

Hi Everyone,
I'm probably going about this the wrong way all together, but what I'm trying to do is print a single record from a form in a report.
Basically after the client fills in the form they can print their "results report" using the click box (command button) in the bottom corner of the form. When the client clicks on the button it prints all the records ("result reports") of all the clients...no good of course.
Here's the code for the button:
Private Sub PrintSingleChamber_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_PrintSingleChamber_Click
Dim stDocName As String
stDocName = "SingleChamberPrintOut"
DoCmd.OpenReport stDocName, acNormal
Exit_PrintSingleChamber_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_PrintSingleChamber_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_PrintSingleChamber_Click
End Sub
Can someone point me in the right direction? :confused:
Thanks again,
Mark

Hello,
I have done a search on this forum and found all the postings relating to printing only the current record for a report. I have a command button and have followed what these posts say. The report prints the current record but leaves out the data from the subform.
The database is a recipe organizer. The main form is called Recipes and the subform contains the ingredients for each recipe. This subform is called Ingredients.
I set up a command button with the following code:
Private Sub Print_Recipe_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_Print_Recipe_Click
Dim stDocName As String
stDocName = "Family Recipes"
DoCmd.OpenReport stDocName, acNormal, , "[RecipeID] = " & Forms!RECIPES![RecipeID]
Exit_Print_Recipe_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_Print_Recipe_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_Print_Recipe_Click
End Sub
Since the RecipeID is used in both forms and the report, I thought it would be the best field to use since it linked all the information together.
So what do I need to do so that the subform data prints out on the report?
Thanks

I currently am trying to print the current record that I have selected on my form and the subform that I have on the same page. If I try to print selected record it will only print out the main form correctly and will print out the first record on the sub form. I have tried to make a reprot of the current form and it only will do the main form and nothing from the sub form. I am willing to try whatever method would work in getting this to work. Thanks

Hi All,
Having a problem with a report, I have a form that i use to enter a new record to my database, what I want to do is put a button at the bottom of the form to print the record (via a report)
If I base this on a record that already exists, it works fine.
However,
If I have just entered the record the query the report runs off doesn't see the new record. To print that record I have to exit the completed record, then go back in to it and print.
My aim is to remove this additional part of the process, I'm sure it's something really simple, but can anyone help?
Many Thanks
Paul

Hi,
I have a form in my database that has two subforms, both of which I use to display images that are linked. This works great when I just flip though the records in Form view, but when I want to print off a certain page the images are not linked properly. Instead of showing the image associated with the unique record it previews/prints the images associated with the first record of my recordset.
Any ideas? Maybe there is something in the subform or form properties that I don't have set correctly. In a past visit to the forum I found an extremely helpful database posted (called ImageSample97) that I used to develop my form.
Thank you,
~Amaze

I have made a navigation form that prints the current record out as a PDF and also the option to send the current record by email as a PDF. Both work perfect when you open the form outside the navigation form. But when you open it inside the navigation form, it does not print any of the information.
The problem is in the Query report, In the criteria box for field [RequsetID] it has
Code : [Forms]![FRMRequestForm]![RequestID]
(The above works outside the navigation form.)
I have also tried adding the navigation form name
Code : [Forms]![Main]![FRMRequestForm]![RequestID]
But none work.

Currently I have five separate reports setup in Access 2010 (that are running off of five separate queries). Since they have different data/fields, I was unable to combine into one query & one report.
However, I print each to PDF and then combine using Acrobat Pro. Is there a way to combine in VBA and not have to do the step using Acrobat Pro?Function PrintReports()
DoCmd.OpenReport "Program_Summary_1", acViewPreview
DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, "Program_Summary_1", "PDFFormat(*.pdf)", "C:DesktopPrintFiles" & "Program_Summary_1" & ".pdf", False
DoCmd.Close acReport, "Program_Summary_1"
DoCmd.OpenReport "Program_Summary_2, acViewPreview

I have a button on a FORM to print the current record with the following code:
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSelectRecord
DoCmd.PrintOut acSelection
But what I need is that before printing, open the preview to set the margins and page size ... or at least to pre-configure so that when you press the button, and comes preformatted.

I have been an MS Excel man all along my career and I am a novice in MS Access.I have created a table, [Initial Customer Approval] which records data from a Form, [Initial Customer Approval]. Once the data is entered in the Form, I need to do some calculations based on the data entered in some of the fields in the form.I created 6 different queries for the six possible values in those fields. now for each of those queries I created respective reports.I placed a Print command button in the Form.
1. When I press the Print button it should open the report for the current record in the Form. (Currently It Opens all the reports simulatneously, with only one relevant report containing the current record; other opened reports being blank.)
2. If user presses the Print button before pressing Save button then system should prompt user.
Here is the code (Please note [reference number] is the unique ID generated for each record entered in the tabe through form):
Private bSaveClicked As Boolean
Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
If Not bSaveClicked Then
MsgBox "You are trying to navigate away from the active record. Please either save your changes, or press ESC to cancel your changes.", vbOKOnly + vbInformation
Cancel = True
[code]...

Good morning,
I've created a pretty powerful Access Database that pulls information out of some ODBC tables we have on our local server. Of course, I created the database and all the forms and reports on my work computer here. But, when I was finished, I sent that entire database out to probably 20 or 30 people in the company. On a daily basis, they run the same program from their own computer and they like to print/export/etc. the reports that are produced. However, I don't understand why those reports print our on my personal printer (the printer is on the network). If they have a default printer at their site, why wouldn't it print there? Also, I haven't included any printing macros or VBA coding. I'm tired of having 30 or 40 sheets of paper print out on my printer daily. Any suggestions?

Not sure why this is doing this. When I print out my report, it will print most of the items, and leave some out. When I go back and check the information is in the database correctly, but it wont print out.

I have a report where the detail section, holding 4 subreports, takes up 5 inches in the middle of the page between the header and footer. We want the entire 5 x 8 area enclosed in a box on every page. I have tried to achieve this by putting a line in the Detail_Format section:
Code:
boxDetail.Height = 5 * 1440 * Pages
However, when I run the report, I get pages 1/3 correctly, then 2/3 and 3/3 with no detail section or box, and then pages 4/3, 5/3, and 6/3 with blank detail sections and no box. If it's a 1-page report, the same - page 1/1 is perfect and page 2/1 is blank, no data and no box. I also sometimes (but not always) get overflow errors from the Detail_Format event.
I know it's not a margin error because that would be every other page, and the page count wouldn't be doing that. (Still, I have scrupulously checked every margin, and they all look fine.) Getting this look on the report is a priority. Any way to achieve the same result with the box without causing the missing data and extra pages?

I have a report with one sub-report. It previews correctly and prints correctly from my ACCDB. However, when I create an ACCDE, the sub-report previews correctly and then does not print. I have tried the following and none work: In the main report, deleted the links and changed the subreports record source.
Changed layout for print to no
Changed filter on empty matches to no
Moved everything from detail to page header.When I put code in the subreport to set a flag when loaded and queried that flag in the main report, the subreport never admitted to being loaded when run from the ACCDE (again works fine from the ACCDB).

I'd like to print out a report so that each record should be printed into an individual pdf file. When printing manually, record by record, I use an app called cuteprinter for converting reports into pdf. But that one needs saving path for each individual pdf file. What could I do if I'd like to make a series of record printing? Would there be a way of automatic generating path and file name for each record's print?

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?
