Save Report To MDI ????
Sep 25, 2007
Hello,
I have a button on a form that I want to save a report off as a .mdi (microsoft office document image). I have found lots of examples for word and excel but no luck with access reports. Im sure what I have so far is wrong or even not on the correct direction. Anyways any help or links would be great! Thanks
The below code gives me a file empty or corrupt error on the saveas line.
Code:Dim miDoc As MODI.Document Set miDoc = New MODI.DocumentmiDoc.Create "Report_rpt_ACF"miDoc.SaveAs "C:document1.mdi", miFILE_FORMAT_MDI Set miDoc = Nothing

I have a few selected reports on an Access 2007 database that users can run. Is there a way for users to view the report, save as a PDF and automatically save a copy to a shared drive by modules/vba coding as an On Click event procedure?

Background: Access 2003
I have a database with which I use to generate reports as pdfs to load to a website.
However when I go to save the file as a pdf it is always as the report name.I am trying to automate this by using a macro as I need to run a report 50 times for ships with a different parameter each time (name of the ship) Another report needs to be run about 30 times, this time the parameter being a date And finally two other reports, but I can live with those being the name of the reports.
Firstly can this be done?
Secondly which would be the best way?
I've tried using the macro route by I run my Report "Main_Ship" with a where clause of [ship]="wiltshire". This produces the report with the relevant ship, but I am then unsure what to use next to save it as a pdf with the name "wiltshire" using the macro route.
or
Create a VBA routine that runs the report as many times as required each with a different parameter for the name of ship or date.?

My reports are saved as a PDF at the moment I click the print report button, select cutePDF Writer then manually add the Quote number stored in Field from the Table or form into the file name, then select the location to store the PDF file

I have generated a report in acviewreport, after viewing the details I want to save the report as a pdf file with the client name, invoice number and date. In the report design view I added a cmd button and successfully coded it. However, it saves the report WITH the cmd button showing. I don't want this button saved. Is it possible to remove the button from the report AFTER I have clicked it?

I want to save my report as excel file on the user computer with a click of a button. I have tried this code:
Private Sub Cmd_ReporttoExcel_Click()
DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, "Gastrolog Report", acFormatXLS, "C:UsersXXDocuments" & Format(Date, "yyyymmdd") & ".xls"
End Sub
But it is giving error 2282 - The format in which you are attempting to output the current object is not available.
The other part of this question is :
This is something similar when I didn't have "PDF add in " in access 2007, when I added PDF add in then option to save file in PDF was available in "output to" action of macro. There is nothing like excel add in. However when I can export the data in excel sheet by Export function in access why don't I have option to save file as excel in "output to " action in macro? I want to have this option so that user can click a button in the form rather than in the top ribbon try to find out how to transfer and save the excel sheet.

Is it possible to create a button that automatically saves a report as .pdf? And automatically generates the filename.
Like 0810-544 (0810 is the date and 544 is the ID from the form.)

One of the users of my application, reports an error when saving a report to pdf by VBA code. She’s using Access 2013, on Windows 8.1.
The error is “error 2501 output to action was cancelled with access vb macro”
The VBA code is
StrReport = “RepInvoice”
StrDocumentName = “C:UsersMaryDocumentsAccessInvoice.pdf”
DoCmd.OpenReport StrReport, acViewPreview
DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, StrReport, "PDFFormat(*.pdf)", StrDocumentName, False
DoCmd.Close acReport, StrReport, acSaveNo
This error occurs at the OutputTo line. This code is part of an user form with a button “save as PDF”.
When this code is run, the report is visible as an example (as meant to be) on the screen. The code stops at the OutputTo line.
When I use
DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, StrReport, acFormatPDF, StrDocumentName,, False
the problem still exists.
I tried to save the report manually by Preview > Export > PDF. The preview is OK, saving as PDF results in the same error 2501. This may lead to the conclusion that this problem is not caused by the VBA code.
I verified whether user write rights are OK, and whether a default printer is available. Both are OK. The report consists of 1 page.
When this very same application is used with Access 2010, everything functions as expected.

I'm trying to save a report to my Desktop as a pdf - adding a date {that I am retrieving from a query} as part of the pdf file name.
I get a
Run-time error '2501' - The OutputTo action was cancelled.
(See screenshot).
Here's the code I'm using. So far - all I've tried to do is run the function from the Visual Basic Editor.
Function SaveReport()
Dim strSQL As String
Dim strPath As String
Dim strFilename As String
'Get the ReportDate.

So I have this relatively simple problem: I need to create a button that once clicked will open the Save As dialog box and allow the user to save a copy of the current database where he wishes. The filename should contain todays date in DDMM format along with some pre-set text e.g. DDMM PresetText.
I am using Access 2010.

I need a simple line of VBA code for Access 2000. I am using Access to open a XML file via Excel 2000 spreadsheet. After opening I want to use SAVEAS to save the file to a different location. In addition I want to specify the file format as Excel. What is the code to specify the file type as Excel?
My current code is :
myWorkBook.SaveAs (myPaths![Path])
So what do I need to add to this line to specify the file type?
Any help appreciated!

I have a combo box that gets its data from a seperate table...In the table I have "Location_ID" and "Location_Name". When I save my form I want the "Location_Name" to save in the "Events" table, but its putting in the "Location_ID". How do I get it to save the "Location_Name" instead of the "Location_ID" from the combo box.
Thanks in advance.

I previously posted this in one of the other forums, but now believe this to be of a more general nature, and am still without a satisfactory explanation or any workaround:
I'm working on a new database with Access 2003, using the 2002-2003 file format. While debugging a VBA code module in the VB editor, whenever I get a runtime error something strange happens - I stop the debugger, correct the code and attempt to save my changes, and Access displays the message "Microsoft Office Access can't save design changes or save to a new database object because another user has the file open. To save your design changes or to save to a new object, you must have exclusive access to the file." It then persists in denying me the ability to save ANYTHING until I close the VB editor, close the Access application, and then start over again. In fact, there is no other user - all other machines on the network are turned off, and no other instances of Access or the VB editor are open.
Needless to say, this is slowing my development efforts to a crawl, and I'm totally stumped by it - I never remember running into this problem in years of working with Access 97 (where I can hit errors, stop execution, make any needed corrections to code or other objects, and re-run the application, without having to exit). I'm running this on a P4 3.4 GHz box with 1 GB of RAM. Going into Tools, Options, Advanced and switching the "Default open mode" between Shared and Exclusive makes no difference.
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

This morning when I make changes to reports in design view then I try to save the changes and Access acts like nothing was saved. I then close window and it asks if I want to save changes, I click yes then it dosn't close. If I close and don't save changes it closes then.
I don't get any error messages or anything that looks like a problem and I could save changes yesturday. Not sure what is differant today.
It is on Access 2003 format.
