Hello Access People,
I am sure this has been answered but i can not find it after searching all day.
I have a main form called "Main Form", then a sub form call "DPriority Assessment" on the main form i use this to filter the results, of only the data for one report shows and the results follow all works this far.
I am using a button to export the results from my sub form in to a word document, the data is copy over ok, but the page setup keeps changing from A4 to Letter, and the page changes from Landscape back to portrait, i have checked my printer setting and the setting in both word and access all looks fine.
I am not sure if some kind of code is need but i am not sure were or how to go about this. If anybody has any ideas i would be grate full or examples would be better.
Kind Regards

Hi,
I'm new to this forum and it's my first post, any help is greatly appreciated.
I have just been given a big project of firstly transferring information we hold in word documents over to Ms Access and then using ASP or .NET I got to make this a searchable, more user friendly web page displaying the information from the database.
I have tried searching on the web but have not found anything that can transfer information from a table in a word document to a table in Ms Access, does anyone know of anything out there that allows this to be done without losing any data in the transfer?
I have tried saving the document as a text file and importing it into Access but it did not transfer the data across correctly.
I have a Report that contains, among other things, Pictures & Check Boxes. When I try to export into a Word (.rtf) document,the Data exports just fine, but the pictures & check boxes are lost. Is there a way to export the Report into Word keeping all formatting intact?

I'd like to export only email addresses separated by ";" to a word document based on a result of a query.
Query gets build dynamically in VB behind the form as there are many search criterias. so user can eneter one field or many in the form to build the query. Queries work and i can extract and display the email in a report or another form, but now i'd like to export it to a word document or outlook (but i would prefer word).
Can anyone please give me advice how i should approch this issue.
Thank you.
I was wondering if there is an awesome way out there somewhere to take a record and export it into a word document, like a template and have the fields go where you want them to?

How to match 4 character word or number or combination by identical 4 characters word or number or combination in one word have 10 or 15 characters.
I have to two separate tables (Table A and Table B). Table A has one column (Tag No) and Table B has about 15 columns with one column name Tag No as below
Table A
Table B
Tag No
Tag No
2009
ZZZ-2030-DC
2010
ZZZ-2010-M9P
[code]....
They're both in MS Access.I am trying to match 2 tables - columns (Tag No) with join query, but not success. I want to match 4 characters in Table-A with 4 similar characters in Table-B (Tag No) cell.What query is suitable to compare two tables.
My end goal is to populate a pre-existing table in an MS Word document with records from a query. The easiest way I've found (through scouring the internet) is to start with the code below (ran during OnClick() even in Access) to get the table the same size as the recordset:
Code:
Dim wDoc As Word.Document
Dim wTable As Word.Table
Dim wCell As Word.Cell
Set wDoc = appWord.Documents.Add(strDocLoc)
wDoc.Visible = True
[Code] ....
The code will shrink the table down just fine if the table has more rows than the recordset +1 (for header column). My hangup with this is the last line ("Selection.InsertRowsBelow 5") isn't executing; rows are not being added to the table. I get no errors -- it just does nothing. I set it as "Selection.InsertRowsBelow 5" arbitrarily just to see if it would even add rows, and sure enough it's not.
I have a form that pulls a number of records from a number of different tables. I want to see basically the same information in a report. Is it possible to export the set up to a report so I don't have to build a report from scratch?
Thanks,

I have a code that has been successfully working, until today. I have a form which I then export as a pdf to a specific folder. I cannot understand why it has suddenly started to throw up the "runtime error 2501 outputto action was cancelled". The line is stops at is
DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputForm, "CLA Notice", acFormatPDF, varCombined
Thanks to some of the threads here, I have managed to automate inputting form data from a record into bookmarks in a word document template (a letter). What I am trying to do is to lock the letter allowing modification only to the form fields in that template. If the original template is locked (allowing entry only in the fields), the data does not flow through. So I was trying to accomplish this through the "ProtectedForForms" property. However, it does not work. The letter gets locked before the information flows through. Here's the code I am trying to use (borrowed from one of the users here):
Private Sub cmd_letWarn_Click()
' Check for empty fields and unsaved record.
If IsNull(occupant) Then
MsgBox "Occupant Name cannot be empty"
Me.occupant.SetFocus
Exit Sub
End If
If IsNull(propad_no) Then
MsgBox "Building Number cannot be empty"
Me.propad_no.SetFocus
Exit Sub
End If
If IsNull(prop_ZIP) Then
MsgBox "ZIP Code cannot be empty"
Me.prop_ZIP.SetFocus
Exit Sub
End If
If Me.Dirty Then
If MsgBox("Record has not been saved. " & Chr(13) & _
"Do you want to save it?", vbInformation + vbOKCancel) = vbOK Then
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSaveRecord
Else
Exit Sub
End If

I'm trying to export a form to another database. I've tried both simply copy/paste and using the export function. In both cases the form is copied to the other database, but my buttons go missing. Is there a way to move the form to another database and keep it intact?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a form that a user fills out and the record is not uploaded to the database until the user hits the submit button. In other words, if the user closes the form without saving, the record is not inserted.
My end goal is to have the user click the button and have 3 things happen:
1) Record inserted into the database
2) A PDF of the record is saved to a per-identified directory
3) An outlook new message window opens with recipients pre-entered and the newly created PDF included as an attachment.
I can achieve steps 1 and 2 no problem. However, the way I get the PDF is by having the VBA simply print and the user selects the Adobe PDF. This does not let the VBA dictate the directory (or file name) and then makes me completely stumped for step 3.
When equipment is returned to our company the details are put into an access database, then the same details are filled into a excel sheet to be printed and handed around for other depments to fill in by hand then sign. I have been asked to see if it is possible to alter the database so that the appropriate parts of the excel sheet could be filled in automatically. You can see an example below, its only the sales section that comes from the database the rest is filled in by hand.
Is it possible to setup a query that would ask for say the RER number and serial number to find the correct record then export the data to fill in the right cells; or is it easier for me to try and recreate the excell sheet as an access report and have it filled in that way.

I have decided to move away from Switchboard in Access 2010, to what I find to be more user-friendly; the Navigation Forms.
However, when I attempt to export any of the data from my navigation forms, the result is a blank Excel sheet. I can easily go into the forms themselves on the left navigation panel and export from there, but when myself or a user attempts to do this from the navigation forms themselves; well, the blank Excel sheet is the result.
How do you create a work-around, so that it is possible to export to Excel from these navigation forms?
I am fairly new to Access 2010.
I am trying to export certain values which are in combo box of MS Access to excel sheet. But what's happening is its populating ID of the field instead of Field Name.

I have a rather large form that I created in Access. It is mainly a travel reimbursement form. It has numerous drop down fields for travelers, dates, etc.
My problem is, how do I email it? I would like for the receiver to see the "printable version". When I try and export it currently, I don't have the ability to send it that way. I can send it as an Excel document, but when I view it, it is about 10 pages wide.
Is there any easy way to make the screen view visible to the receiver?
Any help would be appreciated as my company is opening a satellite office and our administrative assistants will need to get these forms.
Thanks
Hi all
I need to run a certain file from the form
I create a button as follows
Select in the categories "Applications" then select "Run Ms Word"
I have tested it and it open Word but not even a blank page
I then open the code as seen below and want to insert the filename but do not know where. Can someone please help me?
Private Sub Command35_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_Command35_Click
Dim oApp As Object
Set oApp = CreateObject("Word.Application")
oApp.Visible = True
Exit_Command35_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_Command35_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_Command35_Click
End Sub
The file is - D:PanelbeatersPb Manual.doc
I have searched this topic but can't find exactly what I'm looking for so I hope someone help.
I have a directory full of doc files which are constantly being updated. I would want to be able to browse the directory from Access and click on the relevant file to open it directly.
So there's no storing the pathnames in a table etc...just open the doc to view.
Any ideas?
