Trouble With Report! Images Don't Transfer To Other Formats?
Jan 18, 2005
I have a report that looks like a letter on company letterhead. I wrote a macro that changes the report to .rtf, attaches it to an email so that we can send it to customers. The problem I'm having is that the .jpg logo graphic doesn't show up on the .rtf version of the report.
I've tried using .html and .doc formats and it doesn't transfer to those either. Is there a way to make the graphic stay on the letter?
I have built several reports and I have set the layout to Landscape. When I go into the reports after a few days, it puts the format back to portrait. How can I stop this from returning to portrait?
I have one more problem about the version 2000 since it was not happen in version 97. I have changed several report formats margin lots of times (for example .25" for left and right margin to fit on one page) and when I open the reports next time or other users access them from the server (since the application residing on the Novel server) the format keep changing back to the default (1" for all margins: top, bottom, left, right)!!
Please let me know if it is a "bug" in Access 2000 and HOW to fix it!!
I am having problem to keep the desired format for reports' margin (left, right, top, bottom) and paper size (letter, legal), and orientation (portrait, landscape) stay!!
Currently, I have one MS Access 2000 database application resides on Novel Netware server version 6.0, [B]although I open the Access database exclusively to change all my reports design to the way I like, and SAVED them properly; however, later when I and other users view those reports, the formats change back to default view, which are "letter size, portrait and all margin set to 1")??
It is very STRANGE and FRUSTRATING and incovenient since all users have to manually go to "Page Setup" of the report's design everytime to change margins to make the data display nicely on one page!! It has never happened like this in version '97!
Plllease let me know if ANYBODY has any SOLUTIONS to this bug of version 2000 of Access?? Or any UPDATE file released to help get rid of it??
I am printing statements for clients. Depending on certain criteria about the client, the format of the statement changes completely. This is just how the boss wants it, I have no control. I still want to generate all statements at one time (not separate reports).
I currently have this working using multiple subreports, and changing their Visibility property, only one being visible at any one time. This works, but it is very slow, I assume because I am basically making Access do triple the work (I have 3 subreports).
I pretty confident this is not the intended use of subreports. Is there a "correct" way to do what I am doing? I know I could just manipulate everything with VBA, but having subreports makes editing the different formats very easy.
I have created a report in access 2000. What I wish to do is insert a signature on this report and as I scroll through the report, the signatures change. The fields on the report are name, major and dean.
The signatures reside on the "c" drive on the computer. This report is based on a query. I wish to link the signatures to a specific field(dean) so as I scroll through the report the signatures changes with the report.
I have searched the forums for a solution, but I am having difficulty.
Hey can I transfer data into a report wizard, to have the wizard use that data instead of the data in a table or query?? This data would come from a form.
hi i have created a form bringing together 3 queries. one of the queries contains images the other 2 queries are text/data information. i am now creating a report to print out the queries. each query is made into a report and then combined with a main report [2 of the queries are subreports]. the code i have used to link the images so that i get a unique image with every record is
me.[cempic2].picture = me![combined_mage_path]
however when i print the report if the record contains more then 1 image i get the following [screenshot 2]. what i need to do is to limit the image print out for each record to the first image only. the only common naming criteria for all my images is 001.jpg, 002. jpg and so on what i need to do is to show only the image for each record that ends with the criteria *001.jpg. how would i do this in VB? thanks
This im sure is an easyone to most of you but for me I cant find away around my problem!!
I have a form I use to enter infomation and I have also made a report that I am trying to get the infomation from the form onto the report.
I would like to have a command button on the form that once I click it, it then prints out the report. How do I get the information from a form to a report as when I have tried doing this myself it only allows me to use information from a query or table.
I have a db of products which drives an ASP website, and includes links to images, which I have now stored locally (with the image path amended to point to the local images folder) along with the images folder containing all the images.
What I now need to do, is produce Access reports using these images, this I initially assumed would be a simple task, but hasn’t in practice worked out that simple!!
So, I now have local folder containing the images, and the products table with an Image field that stores the local path to the image – How can I now get the record and corresponding image to appear in my report? I’ve tried using an OLE field for the images, but this means updating each record manually (unless there is any way of updating the OLE field from the existing image path field??)
I have photos stored in a folder on a drive. I have referenced them before in a simple picture viewer I created in a form. I create the file name by referencing the values of a list box on the field.
Example:
The list box has piid.2005.001 and image name is 2
Each piid has it's own set of photos in their own folder
Now. I want to be able to print out all the files in a report/form. The piid and image name are stored in a table called tblPhotos so I could reference there.
I want to have a button I click that generates a report/form that spits out all the photos in that folder. Next to a button would be a text box (txtWhichPiid) where you enter in the piid and that's how you know which piid's photos to use.
In one of my databases, I have a form and a report where the images stored in my tables are not showing properly for all entries. They show as an icon with the file name rather than the image itself. This is not true for every entry, so I don't think it would be a problem with how the form and report are set-up.
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've written an application in VB.Net and now I need to transfer the data on textboxes on a form to a report for printing. Only the data on the form is what I want to preview and print.
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.
Is it possible to change the resulting format of a new field (expression) within a query? I.e. Instead of the resulting when running query being displayed results in decimal places but instead being displayed in percentages
I can't seem to set the format and decimal places to do what I want in my table. I've tried several different combinations of Field Size being either Integer or Long Integer, Format being either General Number or Fixed, and Decimal Places being either Auto or 1.
What I want is to display the number I've input as I've typed it. For example, I type 10.6 and thats what I want. But instead I'm getting either 11 or 11.0 or 11.00 for all the formatting options I've tried.
Can someone please tell me why its doing this rounding to my number, and what do I need to change?
I am having trouble applying conditional formats to my access db they work in excel but cannot seem to put them in to access I have one table that my forms and queries look at
These are the conditions i had used in excel
formula is =AND($H18>=TODAY(),$H18<TODAY()+14)
this turns red if within two weeks of today
formula is =AND($H18>TODAY()+15,$H18<TODAY()+43)
this turns amber if between two and six weeks of today
less than =<TODAY()
text is struckthrough and turned red
Any help with implementing these in access either similar or new method
so, In Form I have two calendar controls, and two text boxses. Based on selected date, text boxes are showing day of the year (format(Date(),"y")).
Query is based on table with records of days in year (numbers), so, when Im trying to sort Between two numbers from Form (in this case nubers of days in year) query is reciving (imo) full date, not the number and im not getting any results.
I'm tring to build a queary based on a field called "PLAN_CODE" and a policy issue date field. There are 3 plan codes ...select1, select 2 and select 3. I want to pull information as follows Select1 has an issue date 11 months ago (day the queary is ran) select2 has an issue date 23 months ago select3 has an issue date 35 months ago
I built a field to calculate the duration of the policy based on the issue date Duration: (Round((POLICY_ISSUE_DATE]-Date())/365,1)). I think the format is wrong? need help with that!
I built a field to create a nested "IF" statement but the first "IF" is not pulling correctly, so I cant built the remaining "IF" statements. Expr2: IIf([PLAN_CODE]="SELECT01N" [Duration]=-0.9,0).
Anyone have a better approach? Any input how to handle this? I'm not real good with VB code but have a general understanding of it. It's easier for me to build in the QBE.
I have a table of dates and a "frm Dates" based upon it. I have copied a very useful calendar control which I found on a sample datebase elsewhere on this excellent site. I want to have an [OK] button which jumps to the correct date in my frm Dates when I choose that date on my calendar, but it's getting the months and days the wrong way round. Here in the UK our favoured approach is dd/mm/yy, but to try and figure this thing out I've formatted everything as Long Date.
Further details are on the form of the attached database, I hope you can help. Non-technical answers most appreciated as I'm pretty much a greenhorn with this stuff.
I have been battling to get a mail merge to work correctly with a access database, the data isn't coming across correctly.
I have the date set up in access as a long date format, when it merges into word it changes to 2005-10-05 00:00:00, can anyone tell me what I need to do to get the date to appear correct.
thanks in advance
Di
ps I have read and re read the help pages on this but still can't get it to work
