Viewing a report from an Access Webpage... I can not, unlike from a form, create a button to view a report. Is there anyway around this? Is there no functionality to display the report as an html page or so?
I am very new to access and have a question which I think is very easy to answer. What I have is an access file with a listing of companies, their contacts and what services we provide for them. (each company/client/service is listed in a row with each new set of information on the row below it).
What I am looking to do it to create a data access page that anyone in our office can view. I want the access page to have a text box where they can type in the name of the company, then click a 'search' button. That will then display the results in a box below everything. The results would be the contact and the services (there are other columns in the datasource as well, but I didn't list them).
If anyone can shed some light onto my problem it would be most appreciated!
if let say i create a page that have database (*.mdb file) and for my client side, the PC don't have Microsoft Access, can they view the page that have *mdb file?
I deal with different blood test reports for same patient on different dates. Because tests are so many, so i have arranged them on different pages of the same main report. But the problem is, that access shows different records of the same tests for different dates one under the other as a set...while i want it to show in parallel columns with test label on left side and column heads as different dates.
I have run a query that reports the following information. I am using Access 2007
Model (Text) Start Time (Time) Step (1-5)
I have a report that is grouped by step and I have Force new page selected for this group. So the idea is that each page will show the models and start times for each step on separate pages.
Since the width of what I am showing is not very wide I want two columns so that when there is too much data the data will just continue in the next column rather than create a new page. This way all the information for each step will be contained on one page.
I am running into problems when there isn't enough data for a given step to fill up the entire first column. Access is placing the next data set (Step #2 for example) in the next column rather than on its own page. Does access view a new column as a new page? I thought that selecting "Force new page" for my group would force a new physical page and not just dump the next data set into the next column.
I have an access table stored with information of different people. Each person has his own personID. To print that information i need 1 page per person. So I made a report grouped based on the PersonID and inserted a pagebreak after that section. It worked perfectly untill I needed to customize the layout of each page based on other information of the table.
For example; I want the textboxs for person1 on the form to be put closer to each other than for person 2. I use VBA to control the layout of the report which worked perfectly, but i dont know how to control the layout with VBA for each specific page.
I am writing a book, using MS Access 2007 (seemed like a good idea at the time I started, and the report that creates the formatted book content works quite well).
The book content is "per paragraph" which gives me total flexibility to move content to whatever spot in the book I might wish, simply by changing the paragraph number (free field, not auto-number primary).
To save paper (or pages) in printing (or viewing) the book, I have the report printing off para by para (as many whole paras as will fit to a page). This is fine but I want each new chapter to start at a forced new page, for "presentation"/appearance sake.
The relevant fields for the purposes of this post are:
paranumber paratext chapternumber forcepageifticked (a Yes/No box), which goes with each paragraph and which I thought might come in handy, I had in mind to link it to a page break control at the top of the "detail" part of the report in design view, and which would be "invisible" except if the report formatting process had got to the start of any chapter, and the Yes/no box was ticked.
On a Form I have a series of Listboxes, each drills down to a final piece of information. The Listboxes store a number_id which displays along with other information In this case the number_id is associated to a TEXT description. When I send the Listbox info to the Report it displays the info but the text doesn't wrap and it gets cut off. There is no "can grow" option on a list box.
So I need to create a Text Box in the Report but when I refrence the listbox in the control source only the number_id shows up. I need to see the associated text (field).
Im not an Access wiz but have managed to build quiet a few different queries in Access which are from tables linked to the software that holds all our data.Im looking for some way to put all these queries in one please for all my colleagues to VIEW ONLY. I just want some sort of really simple dashboard for the person to pick a report they want from different categories and it will export it to Excel for them.I have thought of building this in Excel because I have some knowledge of VBA in Excel.
I have a button on my main form that allows me to view one of my reports. In order to view the report I have to close my main form. My problem is how do I reopen my main form when I close the report that I have viewed? Some code that would reopen my main form when clicking on the X in the upper right hand corner of the report to close it?
need information in form to write to report before accepted and saved to separate table, so operators can read it. background:manifest information entered into form in receiving office, analysis ran in lab and then entered into form. When analysis is approved, Operators unload material then truck checks out in receiving office. Need to see analysis before it is written from load_temp table to Load table.
I have a data access page needs a filter by a dropdownlist, the dropdownlist used is a html control and I use javascript to filter the data programmaticlly in the onchanged event of the control.
MSODSC.DataPages(0).Recordset.Filter="AppID = 3";
My problem is, when this statement runs, the page refreshes. But I don't need the page refreshes, it set the dropdownlist text to the default text, not the value user select. The browser is IE7.
I have an asset data base to generate individual asset detail reports with a sub report on the same page listing similar assets from a separate query. I have set the master and child fields, one to many. This works perfectly for the first two assets (pages), however the sub report stops showing data on the third asset (page).
I've been reading everywhere on this site trying to find out how to do this, but just can't seem to grasp it. I see people saying it can be done, but can't find more specific details on how to go about it. I just want to view a pdf file from within the access environment. I need to be able to view contracts from my app, and joy oh joy they are all in PDF form.
Any help is greatly appreciated to get me started on this. I've tried using the Active X Adobe Acrobate Control but to no avail.

I have set up a secured database using access 2003 which I want to roll out to users who will only have access runtime installed on their pc's. The problem is there are some additional options that I want to add to a new menu (export, change password etc) that I need them to be able to view in runtime - when I set up a new menu in access 2003, it doesn't seem to be visible on anybody else's PC when they are logged into the database regardless of whether they have full access or runtime.
I have created a report in Access 2002, that I use to export to Excel. My problem is the field names in the report are quite long and some are very similar to each other. I can not find a way to view a list of the field names for the report while in Desing view.
I have no real formatting on the report as I only use it for exporting, and looking at the report itself in Access, all the field names are truncated
Any help on how to view which fields are in the report and how could I easily add another field in the middle of it if needed.

See, Additional Techno-Commercial and below data are in Report footer. So problem is if there is single result in details above footer, then this footer comes up and report covers only half of page.

I have a list of jobs for a report in which there are multiple jobs per page. When there is a page break in the report some jobs are being cut off and then started on the next page. I do not want any information from a job to be seperated by a page break. I just want a page break to occur after a full job listing. I don't mind if the page is short, just don't want any jobs broken up. Is there a way to accomplish this??? Thanks.
