I have a report with a subreport on it and I find that the subreport has alot of space between each of the rows of data that are shown.
How can I change the space between rows so it is not so great?
I tried "Padding" but this seems to change the distance between fields on each row, but not the distance between the rows.
I have a report which contains 3 subreports. Now I require to do the following:
1. Hide the subreport if there is no data.
2. Remove the Blank space created when the data in subreport is null.
I tried to Set Can Grow and Can Shrink to Yes but still the blank space was not removed.
When I reduced the height of the subreports in the design view the blank space was reduced but it was still there.
What can be done so that the complete report auto adjusts itself if any sub-report is null? Something like the whole page auto fits itself in the available space?
The option of reducing the size of sub report in design view to minimum is there but it makes the report very un-handy for future reference.
I have a report which programmatically sets the value of some labels based on its own internal logic for each line of the detail section of a report. This all works fine and dandy, using the Detail_format event, and accessing detail.controls.item(x).caption.
HOWEVER, when I then embed the report as a subreport (which I need to do), I goes wrong. Here, I get the values of the last row of the detail repeated in every previous one. I'm suspecting because the parent report has its own 'detail' (I've tried giving the subreport its own distinct detail name).
Hi,
I am using VB.NET 2003 and MS Access XP for a desktop application. While developing the application we have a reached a situation where we want to print a report which retrieves records from four tables. Till here it is easy to think that it can be done by a simple SQL JOIN query, but following is the complexity:
The first table stores a single row.
The second table stores multiple rows related to the Primary Key field defined in Table One.
The third table stores a single row related to the Primary Key field defined in Table One.
The fourth table stores a single row related to the Primary Key field defined in Table One.
The above SAVE RECORD option is performed when a user fills a Form of my application. As stated above, all the four tables are inter-related with a Primay Key field (TNo) defined in table one.
I also have a MS Access Report that will print information retrieved from all the four tables. The Report has some of the fields from each of the above table. The SAVE operation is performed in this way:
(1) A unique TNo is generated for a new record that is about to be created.
(2) All the entries are saved in their respective tables (mentioned above.)
(3) An access query will fetch the records pertaining to this TNo from all the tables to fill the report.
I want to know how to write such a query when I have to fetch multiple rows of a table in between. Is there any way that I can pass the TNO as a parameter to this query that is saved in MS Access?
I have a Report linked with a SubReport. I would like to cancel viewing this Report if my SubReport Has No Data.
i tried this code but the report just shows up. Any Ideas?
Private Sub Report_Open(Cancel As Integer)
On Error GoTo Err_Trapper
If Reports![qryRepCurOrgProjsSR].Report.HasData = 0 Then
Cancel = True
End If
Err_Trapper:
MsgBox Err.Description
Exit Sub
End Sub
Ok i got an error message. Yoy entered an expression that has an invalid Reference to the hasData property.
Ive tried using a text bpx on my main report and putting a control source as
=IIf(qryRepCurOrgProjsSR.Report.HasData,0,"Nothing")
Then in my Report Open Event i put the code below. But it fails me still.
If trim(Me.MyText) = "Nothing" Then
MsgBox "The Report Is Cancelling....."
Cancel = True
Exit Sub
End If
I have a report named rpt100 with two subreports srpt100a and srpt100b. The subreports are based on query qry100a and qry100b. Both queries are based on tbl100. I removed a field named 'Comment' from tbl100, as it wasn't useful; Also removed the fieldname from both qry100a and qry100b. When opening rpt100 a parameter dialog opens asking for data on the deleted fieldname 'Comment'. The field 'Comment' was never used in the report or subreports.
Inspection of the subreport fieldlist shows field 'Comment' still present.
How, other than remaking the rpt100 and both srpt100a and srpt100b, do I remove the field 'Comment'?

Below is the working version of the code works for single report filtering. say a report called "rptduedate_census2" and i can filter out using form instead of hard coding query of that report (say lastname=form!frmsample!txtlastname). I dont want to hard code query and there are reasons for that.
I am using a Main report called "rptDueDates_Dept' and there are about 10 different subreports (see print screen). The main report is not bound to any query. It has many subereport. Each subreport is bound to some query and i need to be able to filter them before data appear on the main report. Am i making any sense, LOL.
How can I implement my working code below to do this. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP. I AM NEW TO ALL THIS. I have attached a print screen of the main report, just to show how i put subreports in their.
===== MY WORKING CODE ======
Private Sub cmdPrv_Click()
Dim strFilter As String
strFilter = "[Mail_Census_Date] BETWEEN #" & txtStartDate & " # AND # " & txtEndDate & " # "
' Apply the filter and switch it on
If SysCmd(acSysCmdGetObjectState, acReport, "Report") <> acObjStateOpen Then
DoCmd.OpenReport "rptduedate_census2", acViewPreview
With Reports![rptduedate_census2]
.Filter = strFilter
.FilterOn = True
End With
DoCmd.Restore
Exit Sub

I have a main report with one subreport. The main report contains details of a payment being made to a supplier. There is the total amount being paid, and the cheque number being transferred. There is also a field called payref which is made invisible. This is used to link up with the subreport. The amount is the total of several invoices for which payment is being made.
The subreport contains details of each of a number of the invoices being settled. The subreport is linked to the main report via a common field called pay-ref, and the subreport is 'visible'. The subreport prints when placed in the page header section of the main report. However when there is a large number of invoices being shown in the subreport only a certain number appear. It appears that the subreport can only hold a certain number.
When the subreport is put, as it should, in the detail section of the main report, it does not appear at all in the main report. I have no clue why and I have made several reports like this one before.
linking a report and a subreport (chart). I have uploaded my sample DB. I'm trying to chart all the individuals and three fields for each Home. Both report and subreport are using the same query for the record source. My charts are blank "All_Homes_Individual_Totals". Just use date range 05/01/14, 06/24/14 on my Main form page for the data.
My second question is how would you create a chart to pull by each individual with their monthly totals per Home using "qry_Community_ Inclusion_ All_Homes" with a report and subreport (chart) as above. Report would show the individual's totals by month for each home.

Trying to get a subreport total to show on my main report
getting #error no matter how I code
Running a subreport containing a total in report footer (only field that
name of subrpt total fld subrpt

I am trying to get my totals from my subreports, and dividing the number by 2 or 4, and put the new number on the main report.
for Operator/Trainer Productivity, I used:
=([rptEmployEvaluationOperator subreport].[Report]![OPTotal]+[rptEmployEvaluationOperatorTrainer subreport].[Report]![OPTotal])/2
for Auditor/Trainer Productivity, I used:
=([rptEmployEvaluationAuditor1 subreport].[Report]![OPTotal]+[EmployEvaluationAuditor2 subreport].[Report]![OPTotal]+[EmployEvaluationAuditor3 subreport].[Report]![OPTotal]+[EmployEvaluationAuditorTrainer subreport].[Report]![OPTotal])/4
These both work if there are values in all totals subreports. When one of them might not have a total, I get an error message.
I tried to use :
=IIf([Orders].[Report].[HasData], [Orders].[Report].[txtOrderValue], 0)
=IIf([Orders].[Report].[HasData], Nz([Orders].[Report].[txtOrderValue], 0), 0)
=iif([rptEmployEvaluationOperator subreport].[Report].[HasData],([rptEmployEvaluationOperator subreport].[Report].[OPTotal]+=iif([rptEmployEvaluationOperatorTrainer subreport].[Report].[HasData],[rptEmployEvaluationOperatorTrainer subreport].[Report].[OPTotal])/2
and the same idea for the second one. I tried both methods and did not work. I am not sure what I am missing.
I have a subreport with bitmap files attached, the sub works great until I link it to the main report then the sub shows nothing.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a report that is fixed at one page for one record. However, there is a subreport with many transactions ("CanGrow"=No). If this goes to a new page I have to close the report and start a new one. This all works fine, except for the last transaction - if the second-to-last transaction record is at the bottom of a page then the last one does not print.
Access seems to format the data, then it realizes that it won't fit on the page so doesn't print it. I am using record id number to know which transaction record to start the next report on, so when it gets to the end my logic thinks it has reached the end as the id number is the last one in the set.
How can I know if the last record has printed or not?
I have a subreport that works fine on its own. But, when I link to the main report I have an error, which I am attaching here.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a main form (ZooMobile Booking Form-New Client) with a subform (ZooMobile Event Booking-New Client) within it. In the main form I have a button to open up a report displaying the main form's current record.
The report that is opened has a subreport that needs to display the current record from the subform.
So far I've managed to get the report to open to the main form's record using the following On_click command:
DoCmd.OpenReport "ZooMobile Billing Invoice", acViewPreview, , "[Client_ID]=Forms![ZooMobile Booking Form-New Client].CustIDTxt"
I can't manage to get the subreport to open to the current record in the subform, however. I've tried to integrate it into the above event and to use On_load events in the report and subreport but everything either comes up as a bug or has no effect on the subreport's record.
I have a report, with a sub report. The sub report has a determined height, and can't grow or shrink.
It has enough height for 25 rows, which will never be filled for this purpose.
I need a totals box to appear after the 25th row, but it will only show at the bottom of the list, regardless of the number of rows.
I have a =sum([Price]) control box in the report footer, is there a way to make the report footer go to the bottom of the pre-defined height?
My other option was to place the =Sum([price]) on the parent form, but that got messy with Reports![rptSheet].[rptSheetSub]!Report.[Price]
It didn't like it, nor did the sum function.
I want to refer field "plyty_sa" which is in "RaportZleceniaRobocze" Report, in "RaportRobocze_Offset" SubReport. The problem is that, SubReport is in Report Footer. I tried many possibilities but I can't find solution.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am exporting a report from access. The problem is after export to .rtf, all fields appears correct except a bar code field (CCode39). It adds a space after the text which makes text non-recognizable by bar code scanner.If I use other formats, then there is no problem. I tried by using plain text as well rich text format for that particular field.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to open a report (rptGMX-IRG) that includes a sub-report (srptRG) based on criteria that is set with two unbound fields on a form (frmGMXbook). This form has two dropdown boxes (cboGMX_No & cboMachSize) and a command button. The first dropdown box includes data located in the main form and the second dropdown includes data that is part of the sub-report.
I can get the report to open properly when I enter data into both fields on frmGMXbook.
However, the problem I am having is the inability to have one or both fields be "Like '*'" and show all associated records.
Here is the code I have on the command button.
Private Sub GMX_Preview_Click()
Dim strCriteria As String

strCriteria = "[cboGMX_No] Like '*'"
Else
strCriteria = "[GMX_No] ='" & Me.cboGMX_No.Value & "'"

I have a report that has two sub reports one to report deposits and the other to report payments.
The report prints fine if there are records in both sub reports, however when the payments sub report is blank then the report hangs and won't print to pdf at all.
I am trying to join a number of reports into one report. I have a generic report which displays a different dataset given the user's choice on a form. I created a collection where I can store multiple instances of this report (called mcolReportInstances) - this works just fine.
I was looking to combine all the reports in the collection into one report. To that end, I have created a report with a number of subreport controls but with no sourceobject. In the On_Open event of this blank report, I am trying to set the source object of the subreport to one of reports in my collection:
Me.Controls("Child" & i).SourceObject = mcolReportInstances.Item(strKey)
However, it keeps giving me the error 'Type mismatch'.
How to display only the first few records in a subreport but keep the grand total of the report itself. When I limit results in query; it gives me the records but only totals for that set. I thought about putting code in the on format in detail section like:
Code:
If me.control.value >10 then
me.control.visible =false
but doesn't work.
Background:
I have a database with one main table that contains info on a variety of organizations and the services they offer. Another table lists regions these organizations are located in. The services they offer are listed in 11 different categories, each with its own field in the main database.
The end product of the project will be several reports. In particular, I need one report that lists by zipcode, each organization, its contact info, and any details about its services. The data for each organization will appear on several lines, as shown below:
---------------
Org name Region
Address Driving Directions
Contact Name
Phone
Comments
Food bank: details of hours, etc.
Hot meals: details.... [any services not offered does not appear or take up any vertical space]
---------------
The problem:
Since the reports will be printed and put into booklets, we need to eliminate any blank lines caused by empty fields. In many cases an organization will only have one or two categories, so the other 9 or 10 lines would be blank and take up too much space on the page.
What I've tried:
First I tried creating SubReports so I could use VBA scripts on the On Print event on the Detail section to make the SubReport invisble if it didn't have any data (HasData is false). That did make the SubReport not print, but it still took vertical space.
I struggled with various combinations of Can Grow and Can Shrink, but kept having problems with multiple lines appearing where there should hav been one line, and sometimes they were blank lines (especially if I didn't allow duplicates and there were several entries exactly the same). Whenever I got that undercontrol, the fields with no data took up space. Frankly, I'm not convinced I ever got them to NOT take up vertical space. (Maybe I didn't get it right. I'm open to trying again.)
Then I tried concatenating fields onto one TextBox, like this: Code:=("Food Purchase: "+[Food Purchase]+Chr(13)+Chr(10)+Chr(13)+Chr(10)) & ("Utilities: "+[Utilities]+Chr(13)+Chr(10)+Chr(13)+Chr(10)) & ("To Prevent Eviction: "+[To Prevent Eviction]) That works, but it seems like an ugly hack. The Chr(10)+Chr(13) create new lines. The + instead of the & makes it so that if any of the elements inside the parentheses are null, none of them print. So I can eliminate both the label and the new line, too.
Isn't there a better way to eliminate the vertical space when there's no data?
Ok I've browesed this forum and can't seem to find anything that will work.
I have a report that includes 7 subreports with a page break before each subreport.
I want to hide, or disable the page breaks and subreports if a give subreport is empty.
Any ideas on how to do this?
I like to store SQL code as a memo field in a table. I then use a form to collect selection criteria from the user, and this is used to create a 'WHERE' clause which is then appended to the stored SQL. This has always worked, but in one recent case the SQL failed. On examination I discovered that although the SQL is correctly stored in the memo field, when Access retrieves the code it inserts a space character in the middle of one of the words, thereby of course creating an invalid SQL string. It's easy to work around it, but why this happens? A bug in Access?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHello,
Is there a way to configure Access so SQL View saves white space changes to a query? By white space changes I mean tabs, spaces and carriage returns added to make the query more readable in SQL view.
For instance:
When I'm editing a complex query in Access, I space it out nicely like:
SELECT ((field1 * field2) + (field2 * field3)) / field4 AS [Weighted Avg]
FROM table1, table2, table3
WHERE table1.field = 'xxx'
or something similar, with spaces between fields, parenthesis, and carriage returns or tabs in between major blocks of logic to increase readability. It's simplified above but I hope you get the point.
When I save it and return to SQL View later, Access compacts the query to:
SELECT((field1*field2)+(field2*field3))/field4 AS [Weighted Avg]
FROM table1,table2,table3
WHERE table1.field='xxx'
The above example isn't so bad, but with multipe selects, joins and mathematical calculations using parenthesis, it becomes really unreadable after Access "compacts" it.
Any way to change this lovely "feature" ?
Thanks,
-Scott
