I have a report that prints invoices, and in the page header area it contains most of the invoice information such as labor cost, customer info, etc. In the detail section of the report i have the line items, and a line contains a part, vehicle charge, etc. Some invoices dont have any line items though, and it seems that when there are no lines(ie. nothing in the 'detail' section), the header information will not appear either. Any ideas on how i can fix this?
I am creating a report that is organized by project. The detail lines are to list payments applied to the project. How can I skip the detail section (or print a single blank line) if there are no payments in the separate payment table that match the project ID? Is there a way to tell that there were no matching payments and format accordingly? I currently get multiple blank lines.
I am trying to achieve the following - I want to query a table to see if a record exists with a particular field blank. If so, I would like to prompt the user for data.
In real world terms, when assigning an item to a user I would like to first make sure that the item is not already assigned to somebody else. I have 4 fields, UserName, Item, IssueFrom, IssueTo. So when an item is assigned to a user, the first 3 fields are populated and the IssueTo remains blank, until that item is assigned to somebody else.
At the minute I have nothing in place to prevent a user from assigning the same item to multiple users and having multiple records for the same item in the table.
I am creating a report that contains name andd birthdate on one line. I need to have up to seven lines in the report for some groups, but do not want to leave blank lines where no names exist. I am working in 2010 and have read about canshrink in 2007, is this approach availabel in 2010 and for date as well as text?
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).
I have a query with three sub queries, all returning a number from different tables. But when any one of the sub queries returns a blank, the entire main query is blank.
How do I stop this from happening? I have tried NZ() on the sub queries and on the main query, but the blank still happens.
I am trying to create a 5 page report filled with colorful tables, charts, and graphs. This report will need to be reproduced 115 times. I am almost finished with page 2 of 5. When I try to start page 3, it appears that the height of the report is capped.
I have reset my computer to clear my RAM, but I still have the same problem. I try extending the length of the report, but the window will not scroll down beyond 22". Is there a way to extend the height of the report?
Thank you in advance, and I will try to answer your question in return.
I know that multivalue fields are not the best to use, but I have a simple database that they work fine in. My question is this: Is there a way to show the entire list of choices in the multivalue field on a report? Not just the ones selected, but all of them, whether checked or not? The multivalue field has a list of names and the user selects each name if they repond to a incident (fire, car accident, etc.). My report would show the entire list and count number of responses by each name during a date range. I want to show all of them on the report, with those not selected showing "0".
I need to create a report for each employee in my company of all compensation information. The report is going to need to have multiple detail sections on the report for example to list all benefits specific to the employee and all beneficiaries.
I tried using a subreport to produce those detail sections that I needed but once I placed this subreport inside a box on the main report each detail I created increased the size of the box. I also thought about making the detail section a list box and writing all of the information there. Would there be a better or easy way to accomplish this?
I am also thinking I am going to have to save all of this information in a table and based the report on that table?
Is there a way to only highlight the last row of the detail section in a report?
I tried the following code in the "Format" but could not get it to work in Access 2010.
If Me.ClaimStatuses = "Total Potential Recoverable" Then Me.Section(acDetail).BackColor = vbYellow Else Me.Section(acDetail).BackColor = vbWhite End If
Where "ClaimStatuses" is the control text box and "Total Potential Recoverable" is the value I want to equal so this row which is the last row will be yellow.
In the detail section of my report, I recently added a second row which has only 1 text field. When the value of the textbox in the 2nd row is null, I want the total row height equal to just the first row. When the value in the textbox in the 2nd row is not null, then the total row height is equal to row 1 and 2. I tried to make the textbox in the second row invisible when it had a null value thinking that when it was null, the report would shrink to the first row height, but that didn't seem to work.
We are creating a report and for some reason we can no longer extend the detail section of the report. It has stopped at 2 A4 pages length and won't let us extend it further. We have about 7 pages of the report, I didn't think this was too much?
I have a main report with 2 subreports. My main report has a header section, the 2 subreports are in the detail section of my main report. How can i prevent my report from splitting up my header and my subreports. (Header section of my main report is a company and the subreports are the detail of the company.. i don't want my compnay name on the bottom of a page and then the detail on the next page.. it does this sometimes. thanks!
I have a query with various entries, pertaining to various invoices. Each line of the query corresponds to a piece of work done, and there may be several lines in the query pertaining to one invoice. I've written the code to input data to a report.
If there are multiple lines in the query to be added to the one invoice, I don't know how to write code that will add those multiple lines in the detail section. Same type of data on each line, just basically pertains to several different lines of work.
I currently have an access database for tracking company assets and performing maintenance tasks on them.We also have a number of Stores Stock Items that are controlled under a separate finance package.We currently have forms that create individually numbered "Job Cards" in the Job Cards Table..we input the data and manually type into a Text Box the we have used 'X' number of Store Stock 'Item Y'
I have then use a query to export the data i need (Job number, dates, location and Store Stock Items).But I have to manually re-construct the data and items into separate lines in an excel sheet for a paste operation into the finance package (lots of typing of 16 digit stock codes)
What i want is to use a second table (linked via the "Job Card#" key).It will be called "Stock Items" which has a separate field for each of our stock items.the user then just opens second form while creating the job that immediately creates a new record.The user then simply has to put the number of each item used in the relevant text box on the form and close.
example of datasheet view Job# __ ItemX __ ItemY 2417_____3_______7
Now, I have all of that working as I want, But i nee to be able to combine the data from each field into a single field (either in access or excel).What I want to see is a field containing 3x ItemX, 7x ItemY, etc
if there are none of one or more items, I don't want anything displayed for that item (blank space is ok)I have 30 or more stock items, so there will be 30 or more columns in the table. the actual data stored in the table is simply the quantity of each item used.
this data is used twofold,on export to Excel I can split the data into new cells and it's used on a despatch note that is returned with the item so the end user can see the items that were used in the repair.So it needs to be done upon saving the record, record by record.
I have a main form (Parent) along with a subform(Children). I want to have a button that generates a report with the Parent information as a header and the items in the subform as details. In addition, I want the report to show only the children that were recently added not all of the children.
I'm trying to create a report where I can use a section header as a hyperlink to show/hide detail, but only for that section. For example, my customer names are:
Code: ABC Co. ZYX Co. 123 Co.
If I click on ZYX Co., I want it to show the contracts for ONLY that customer:
I've made a form where the user can fill in a field ID... and than by clicking on a button another form will be opened with the data of that person (with that ID that's filled in). But if the user fill in an ID that is not currently in the database, there will be also shown another form, but than with no data.. Now I want that if the ID is not known, to display a message or something (like "this ID is not known, try again") and not to open the form..
I've used the following code under the button:
Private Sub openenFormulier_Click() On Error GoTo Err_openenFormulier_Click
Dim stDocName As String Dim stLinkCriteria As String
I currently need a way to check to see if a a field already exists. To be exact I have an access application that imports data from multiple sources and saves the file name of these imports into an import tracker table. The table has four fields, file name, Date Imported, Import Type, and Number of Records. I am writing some code that checks a Boolean given by a form. If the Boolean is true It skips over checking.
If it is false It needs to check my import tracker file names to see if the file was already imported. If it was then it will skip over the file and the algorithm will check the next file given by an array. So I was wondering..How would I go about making it check if the file already exists in the table. I was thinking of turning the File Name Field into a primary key, since there will only ever be one File Name of every type.
I have two issues with the report generation from a query:
(i) Sometimes blank values appear in the report in the serial number column generated dynamically (setting the control source property =1 and running sum = overall), but when clicked inside the particular box, the correct serial number appears
(ii) When grouped on a field, the particular field value appears sometimes more than once in the report inside the same group.
