I had a subfrom with two combos and a label,
-the user selects name or id from the combo and the label gets filled with information.
-added a print this on the subform and I thought it worked but when I tested it it does not print the data, only a blank label and the two blank combo boxes...
I was wondering if there is an option to print the caption of a label, or if anyone knew how to fix the problem i have above.
Thanks for any help you might be able to offer.
In my report have a group header (type). I just want to print a label on top each row in detail section except first row in each header.

View 2 Replies View RelatedHi--I have a contact database, and would like to be able to have a command button on the form for each contact to print one individual mailing label for that particular contact, preferably in a user-specified row/column on a page of Avery 6245 labels. Am realizing that this is a major hassle in Access but would like to do it within Access (why is it so easy to print huge lists of labels but so hard to print just one??). Any help would be appreciated. I'm pretty good at writing queries and reports in Access but a rank newbie at the underlying SQL and VBA so need major handholding if that's involved (and I know it is ). Thanks.

I am new to Access and I have just imported my old ham radio logs from a DOS based Smart database - rememeber that one.
I have created a reasonable functioning table. I have also created a Query to sort certain records for which I want to print labels to affix to my radio card which I wish to send to other radio stations (called QSL cards). I have created a Report to run the Query and to print a label. Here is my label. It is a mixture of text strings and data from my log database Query.
To Radio 9U9Z QSL QSO
dd/mm/yy UTC Freq Mode RST
24-Feb-07 18:44:00 18.148 ssb 55
73's de Mark N1XX (WAB 11XXX)
Here is the code for the date time etc line - the 3rd line down on the label above - taken from the design view
=Trim([Date] & " " & [Time_UTC] & " " & [Frequency] & " " & [Mode] & " " & [Rpt_Sent])
I am not sure how to format the date to print just the hours and minutes. I would have hoped that since the main log table was using a short time that it would have folowed automatically. In fact the time was printing as 12 hour time and I had to go into my Windows XP preferences and change the pc to a 24 hr clock to get it to print as a 24 hour clock. I tried setting the pc to an hrs and minutes time but it didn't fix my label format. It still shows seconds. I would like to get label to print 24hr hours and minutes and be able to set my pc back to a 12 hour clock format.
Thanks for your help. I still have loads to learn with this database program.
thanks Mark
I have one field in my table "Id". Here I have inputed 16 digit number always. Can I print out every digit with different text box or label in my report?
View 4 Replies View RelatedHi there,
I have created a form containing contact details for a 100 or so different people/companies. I want to have a button that will allow me to print an address label for the current displayed record (e.g. when I find the company I wish to contact in my form I wish to click [Print Label] and then get this company's address printed on my label).
Have some programming experience but not sure how to go about this in access?
Also as an aside question, is it possible for me to display a list in my form instead of individual records. What I mean is that I would have Name, Address, etc as titles accross the top and then would have a list of all records below these. Then I could click on a record to get more detail and also click on one of the titles to re-order the data by this field?......I know these are pretty big questions but a pointer to somewhere with this info or a sample app doing something similiar would be great. :)
Thanks for your time, regards,

I've got a report that spits out a barcoded label for items on my inventory. What I'd like to know, is if there is a way in 2010 to allow the user to select where on the page for the label to print.
I found a way that looks like it worked for 2007, but it required enabling ADO, which I am not able to do on my work computer.
I have a query that returns several records, typically 1 to 5. I need to print a label for each record returned by the query. Printing a label is no problem, but how do I print sequentally for each record in the query?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to make a label visible on a form during print if a field has "like a string". We use a form so that it prints 3 forms to one page (They are tags for units for repair). I can get the label to be visible in the form view but when I print, the label is visible on every record where it is only visible on the current record in form view. My goal is to have the label only show on those records where the condition is met.
Here is my code that works in form view only: (It is to designate easier a warranty tag from a new repair tag)
Code:
If Me.Problem_Description Like "Warr*" Then
Me.lbl_w.Visible = True
Else
Me.lbl_w.Visible = False
End If
I have attached an image of a tag sheet Tag_Sheet_W.jpg. As you can see if I got my desired result only the first tag would have a W.
I have n horizontal labels named Label_1 to Label_n. I'd like to assign values to the label captions by using a loop.
Something like:
For i = 1 To n
Set Label_i.Caption = i
End
However, this doesn't work. Message "Object required".
Any suggestions?
How can I print a report and at the same time programatically set the printer name and 'Print to File' option and set the path of this option?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a form which my company wanted that each single record should be printed from form. I made a print record button and put code to print single page or record. However as a natural habit people go to file > print to print which leads printing all records so 1000's records start printing. Is there any way i can hide print button. File >Print button.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an unbound form with an associated report. When the user hits the 'print' button on the form/screen, the report is launched in the background. In the On Load event of the report I populate the report fields from the forms field as so:
Code:
Me.txtAddrMainLine2 = "NAME " & UCase([Forms]![frm_OrderRx].[txtPatientName])
This works like a charm as long as I call the report in Print Preview mode (i.e. with acViewPreview). But if I send the report directly to the printer, none of the fields print.
I've read about using other report events to populate the fields (e.g., On Format and On Print) and also something about using TempVars to pass the data. But I haven't read anything that's clear and definitive about the full answer.

Hi folks,
In code i have built a string variable called strRAG which is a combination of text "Me!lbl" and another variable called intSiteID, which forms for example label name Me!lbl51.
I have a form with loads of labels on it and what i want to do is use this string to set the BackColor of the label.
The code i use loops round building up different label names but i am have problems relating the strRAG detail to the form labels.
I have posted this question in VBA early this week but after looking at the wording i have tried to rephrase it.
Thanks

I compiled my module, but an error came out,
Select Case Err.Number
Case 9999 ' Whatever number you anticipate.
Resume Next ' Use this to just ignore the line.
Case 999
Resume Exit_SomeName ' Use this to give up on the proc.
Case Else ' Any unexpected error.
Call LogError(Err.Number, Err.Description, "SomeName()")
Resume Exit_SomeName
End Select
And the error came out, Label Not Defined.
I've checked with "help", and it stated that
"The label must be within the procedure that contains the reference. Line labels are visible only in their own procedures"
Is there any missing references in the library I should checked??
Thanks!:D

View 1 Replies View RelatedHi everyone,
I'm doing up an order database that uses a report to display orders that are
faxed to the supplier.
When the report is first opened, it asks the user for the name of the
supplier (to print at the top and specify which orders to display), the date
(to also specify which orders to display), and the customer number (for the
benefit of the supplier).
Now, there are two main suppliers for this business, other suppliers are
used every now and then. Because of this, if one of these two main suppliers
is entered as a parameter initially, the corresponding customer number I
hard-code in should be displayed without having to ask the user for it. If,
however, another supplier is entered, it should ask the user for the customer
number.
This is all done in a label on the report. Currently, its control source is
set to this:
=IIf([Supplier]="supplier1","Customer
#123456",(IIf([Supplier]="supplier2","Customer #987654","Customer #" &
[Please enter customer number:])))
This works, but asks for the customer number regardless of the supplier I
enter initially.
I'm looking for a way to do something similar to above, but it shouldn't ask
for the customer number if I enter "supplier1" or "supplier2", it should use
my hard-coded values.
Any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Panda.

i dont know how to make it work.
simple, clicking on label in tabcontrol1 will bring you to tabcontrol2
I need to try and create a simple form that a user enters data into and then hits a print button and the text they entered is printed in a particular way.
i.e. they type in someones name, job and company into 3 fields and then hit a print button and this then prints :
PERSONS NAME
JOB TITLE
COMPANY
We also need the print to be formatted a particular way but that is another issue

I want to display the all the labels for a form in an other form. Is this possible.
Basicly have a drop dow box that has all the forms in it and then based on the combo box list the label for that form.
Hi everybody, I am trying to personalised the way Access looks and in this specific case I am trying to open a form with a label:
I: I have added a "space" on the hyperlink address property which is changing the mouse pointer to a "pointing finger" when the pointer is moved over the label,
II: I have added the following code on the move event of the label to highlight the label when the pointer is on the label:
Private Sub Option2_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
Me.Option2.FontBold = True
End Sub
III: I have also added the code below on the click event of the label in order to open the form and change the pointer to an hourglass on loading time as the form can take up to 10 sec to open.
Private Sub Option2_Click()
DoCmd.Hourglass True 'Changes pointer to an hourglass
Dim stDocName As String
stDocName = "FrmSearchAssembly"
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName
'DoCmd.Hourglass false 'Resets it to the arrow pointer
End Sub
Unfortunately the 3rd step is not working, the hourglass only appears after the form is loaded. Is anybody has any idea why and what should be done to get the hourglass to appear when the label is clicked until the form is fully loaded?
I am using the following code in the open event to set the gloves label on my form frm_Delivery_2 equal to the gloves label on form frm_delivery_1. I receive the error that the form frm_delivery_1 cannot be found. When I set the gloves label equal to another label or frm_delivery_2 using the same synax it works.
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
Me.Gloves_Label.Caption = Forms!frm_Delivery_1.Gloves_Label.Caption
End Sub
What or where would I need to setup the code so that it sees the glove_label value on my form frm_delivery_1 and sets the glove label on my frm_delivery_2 equal to it.

i want to make a condition that if an OLE object of mine is empty then the label won't be visible. (visible=no)
The reason i want it is that the ;label is placed inside the OLE object frame, and when i fill the ole object i want that the label will disappear
