Reports :: Formatting A Report From A Command Button

Aug 21, 2013

What I want to be able to do is have a button next to every client entry which the user can click. Once the button is clicked, I want the "person name" box in the report to be formatted to have a yellow background.The purpose of doing this is so after a couple of days when we come back to the report, we can easily see by the yellow background which people we have to follow up with.

I don't think conditional formatting will work because I have so many different "person names" in the report that it would go above the 3 rule limit, only solution in VBA.The button I created is called "Format", and this is the VBA code I have tried:

Private Sub Format_Click ()
Me.Person_Name.BackColor = vbYellow
End Sub

Reports :: Using Command Button In A Form To Filter And Open A Report?

Jun 26, 2014

I'm trying to use a command button in a form to filter and open a report. I am able to get it to open the report, but I cannot get it to filter the report based on a combobox in the form. I've tried every combination of code I could think of and find. Here is what I currently have:

Code:
Private Sub FilterReport_Click()
DoCmd.OpenReport "Report", acViewReport, "First Name='" & Me.FName & "'"
End Sub

Code:
Option Compare Database
Private Sub Report_Open(Cancel As Integer)
Me.RecordSource = Me.FName
End Sub

"FilterReport" = Form Button
"Report" = Report
"First Name" = Report Field
"FName" = Form Combo Box

Reports :: Horizontal Formatting Of A Report

Apr 23, 2015

I am having a problem with the formatting of a report. My boss would like for the report to show (grouped by employee name) a horizontal list like below and update itself.

Aircraft AS350 A119 AW139 AW189
Training Hours 300 50 25 160
OJT Completion 85% 100% 25% 45%

Each training class has a category in the table showing which model(s) the training is. For OJT I got it to count up the tasks and tasks completed in each model and calculate the percentage. I can easily get it to show vertical for each employee. I cannot get it to show like above. I tried using IIF statements to pull the hours and OJT by model aircraft. If I try to put it in the detail section it shows vertical and if I put it in the group of employee name it only returns one record (I assume its still trying to show vertical). The only way I could think of to get it to show properly was a crosstab query but its my understanding those are for archival purposes or for a snapshot and do not update. This report will need to update as things are entered.

Reports :: Report To Rtf- Right To Left Formatting?

Dec 3, 2014

A client wants to convert a report I designed for him, to a word document so he can edit it.

The report's Report.Orientation Property is set to 1 - Right-to-Left

Relevant TextBox.ReadingOrder Properties set to 2 - Right-to-Left,

and relevant TextBox.TextAlign Properties are set to 3 - Right

When exported to RTF, the document is LTR and text alignment is to the left (even though the page actual layout is seems RTL, just like the report).

Is there a way to enforce RTL layout in the exported Word file?

I am using Acc2010.

Edit: Iv'e added a sample word file. You can see it looks RTL, but is actually LTR. Set it as RTL - and it gets all disordered. Now multiply this by 47 pages...

I Need A Command Button To Print Preview And Email Two Reports

Oct 7, 2004

Like the title says I need a command button to print preview and email two reports. I tried using macros but the problem I have is that it'll send out two emails instead of one email with two attachments. The other problem is that it won't recognize current pages information so it'll show two blank reports. But If I go to next record and come back in form view, it reognizes the changes and the reports look fine. Any help would be appreciated.

In my Access 2010 report, I am attempting to perform conditional formatting of one field based on the difference between two fields.

Mar 20, 2014

I am trying to add conditional formatting to a several fields in a report. So far i can use the contional formatting to set a field called [colour] to set that field to red and bold. But i believe I need to use an Expression for all fields, so I can make all fields that = red go red. I have used the the expression:

[colour] = "red"

but nothing happens.

Expression Is [Subtotal]+[Freight] > 50

Reports :: Conditional Formatting Text Box On A Report

Jul 3, 2013

I have a text box on a report from the Control Source CSCS Expiry Date. The format in the table and query and report is Short Date. The Text Format is Plain Text.

I have named the text box txtCSCSExpiryDate. I would like to make the background red when the date is 01/04/2013. I have ensured the text box back style is normal.

I am using expression
[txtCSCSExpiryDate]=#01/04/2013#

And in case it was the Control Source:
[CSCS Expiry Date]=#01/04/2013#

I also tried:
[CSCS Expiry Date]<Date()
[txtCSCSExpiryDate]<Date()

I applied the formatting each time, tried closing and re-opening the database. Changed the background format colour to green instead of red and even restarted my computer and it just stays exactly the same.

I've just noticed something else. I have a screen only button on my report header with

DoCmd.OpenReport "All_CSCSExpiry_Rpt" acViewPreview

Which has also stopped working. I get an error:

The expression On Click you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: A problem occurred while Employee Details was communicating with the OLE server or ActiveX Control.

Is this linked to my formatting not working?

I've just checked and on my 5 reports all of the print buttons are giving me this error! (I added the button as they are part of a navigation form menu which only shows report view, I am editing in the original report design view though.) They were working yesterday! Is it because I compacted and repaired the database?

Reports :: Formatting Report - Alternate Row Coloring

Sep 25, 2014

I am working on a report and I am having issues changing the coloring of the rows in the report. If possible, I would like the first column to be completely white with no alternating color because there is only data in one cell at the top of each grouping. So the column with "Aggregates", "Attachments", etc would have no alternating color rows below them.

In addition to this, I am having difficulty changing the alternating row color for the other columns. I'd like to use colors with more contrast. I have tried changing the color in both design and layout view, but the options for formatting row color is also greyed out, and not available for me to use. In other words, the alternate row color button on the home tab is unclickable, for lack of a better word.

Reports :: Automate Printing From A Command Button With Selected Data From A Query?

Jul 15, 2013

How can I automate different printers for different reports on the same MS Access 2007 database, without having to select the printer each time?

There are two reports that are printed on the same database. Previously, I had automated form buttons to print the reports, without having to select the printer each time. This was about 8 years ago, but I don't remember how I did this. Also, I don't know SQL. Nothing against code, but I did not know how to program, and just MS Access 2007 access itself.

Reports :: Microsoft Chart Object In Report - Formatting Line Weights

May 5, 2015

Using a Microsoft Chart Object 6.0 in an Access 2010 report. It's easy enough to do the basics and that chart responds to data.In my case, I have 12 lines, or columns, being controlled by data. It responds to the data. just fine. What I want to do is control the line weight and colour of each line through VBA.

You can click on the chart itself on the report form, but formatting the line you actually want is almost impossible. Pretending we can, you get the pop-up configuration windows and the TAB "PATTERNS". Under that, you can select "LINE" and then choose the style, color and weight. This is what I need to do in VBA.

Lines like this do not work:Graph_Data.Columns("A").Line.Weight = 5
or...
objDataSheet.Columns("A").Line.Weight = 5I tried a variety of versions of that and am pulling my hair out.

Reports :: Sorting And Formatting A Report Based Off Of Values And User Input?

Jul 1, 2013

I'm trying to make a report that a untrained user can use to review the relevant data from the database I'm creating. All of the work I've done so far has been directly in the tables . Here's a quick outline of my general data organization:

Department:
DepartmentID(PK)
DepartmentName

Employee:
EmployeeID(PK)
EmployeeName
DepartmentID(FK)
Needs_Work (check box)

[code]....

Basically, I want the user to select a department to view using a combo box or option group (which I'm not sure of how to do in a report). Then, I want to view the employees within that department sorted first by whether or not the Needs_Work check box is selected, and then by how many of their competencies are unchecked.

Reports :: Hiding Sub Report With A Button?

Mar 16, 2015

I have a report which shows a set of events. In this report each row has a sub report which show the guests that are attending. What I would like to do is to use a button to drill down into each individual event and hide it again on clicking the button (like a toggle button). I have used the following code which is attached to a button in the report (each event has a button)

Code:
If Me.GuestSubReport.Visible = True Then
Me.GuestSubReport.Visible = False
Else
Me.GuestSubReport.Visible = True
End If

I have used this in conjunction with the 'Can Grow' option and it works almost perfectly. The only problem is it shows or hides all sub reports at the same time instead of just the sub report in the given row.

Is there a way I can target the individual sub report when pressing the button?

Reports :: Button To Launch A Form From A Report

Mar 1, 2015

I have a fairly simple report which lists rows from one table with a little bit of logic. At the end of each row, I want an action button, which when you click it, goes to a form with the correct ItemID for that row.I tried the VBA code like this on the View button on click method:

DoCmd.OpenForm "CreateCAF", , , "[ItemID] = " & Me.ItemID

Of course, what happens is it opens the form CreateCAF with the first ItemID in the report, regardless of which row you click on. I want it to pick up the ItemId of that row.
