Hi all-
Does anyone know how to create a text box inside of a label box in a report? I need to create a report that mirrors a memo format. In the report, I need to type a label ("Total score is __ out of __.") where the __ spaces are calculatedtext boxes based on a table. Thanks.
I am using Access 2007 and 2010. I would like a text box (or label) on a report to autofil using fixed text from a label on a different (closed) form.

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
hi again,
i am making a form which has a help link on it;
the help link is basically a label using this code:
Private Sub help_Click()
Me.help_pop.Visible = True
End Sub
this makes the help_pop label appear visible (as it's visibility is false)
ok so i have that bit sorted, now i want to be able to click the help link agian to make the help_pop label disappear..
any help appreciated

Hello,
Is there a way to make the text in a label smaller than size 8?
I need to put some text on a form, but it's too large for the limited amount of space I have.
Thank you.
I have a text label that I would like to have vertical instead of horizontal. In the properties box, I go to the other tab and set 'Vertical' to yes and the text rotates. Except it rotates 90 degrees clockwise. (The text starts at the upper right corner and reads down, you have to tilt your head to the right to read it.) This seems the wrong direction to me and to my office mate - all the tables we've seen with vertical text has the text rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise (text starting from the lower left corner and reads up, you have to tilt you head to the left to read it.)
Is there any way I can make the text rotate counterclockwise instead of clockwise? I really don't want to create many little graphics.
Thanks
I have two text boxes, and i want to make there value be the label for the form. Here is what i have in the Label on the form:
=Nz([Last Name] And [First Game],"Untitled")
Where am i going wrong?

View 14 Replies View RelatedHow does one separate a text box and label in MS Access 2010? They seem to travel together side-by-side. I want to put one on top of the other.
I am using MS Access 2010. Also. I want to put one of them in the header and the other in the body of the table.
I'm running Access 2003 and my question relates to delivery notes that are produced for drivers as reports. These delivery notes have a blank payment box for the driver to complete if the customer pays upon delivery.
As more and more customers are prepaying by credit cards, I'd like this payment box to be automatically filled with a "PAID" text which will let the driver know the order has already been paid for.
The delivery note is produced from an "Orders" table which has a "Paid" field whose value is automatically set to "Yes" when the order has been paid for.
I was hoping to be able to place a "PAID" label on the report which is only visible when the Paid field of the underlying query is Yes.
As things are at the moment I cannot see any way to put any conditional statement onto this Text/Label. The only options for the "Is Visible" property of the text are Yes or No.
I have globally defined 'Progress' as integerer and using the following code on my splash screen - i want to add a "." to the end of the label caption until progress = 10 (10 timer events)
Private Sub Form_Load()
Progress = 0
End Sub
Code:
Private Sub Form_Timer()
Dim Dot As String
Dot = "."
Progress = Progress + 1
Me.lblProgress.Caption
If Progress = 10 Then
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmLogin"
DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmSplash"
End If
End Sub
I have a report that displays on a continuous style report. What courses the employee have been on and when they expire
right I have field call expirydate and another call dayover showing the number of days till that course has expired also I have made a label called Expired1
now what I'm trying to do.....
if the expirydate has passed I want the expired1 label to be visible and dayover field to become invisible
I have tried
Code:
Private Sub Detail_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer)
If Me.Expirydate < Date Then
Me.expired1.Visible = True
Me.DaysOver.Visible = False
End If
If Me.Expirydate > Date Then
Me.expired1.Value = False
Me.DaysOver.Value = True
End If
I have also tried the code on current event on the report
now my problem if one of the course has expired it will show the label called Expired1 but on all the records but I only want it to display on the record that has expired and leave the daysover text box visible if course has not expired
I am attempting to use VBA code to make the label in my report hidden if the text box is blank. I am very new to coding, and am not sure how I would express this in code. I have been looking at a few examples of how to get this done, but it doesn't seem to work. Where to insert the code. Attached is the image of the properties for my label and text box that I want hidden if text field is blank. I al just lost trying to figure this out.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI would like the label for a text box to read "B&W or Color" for a database of photographs.
Access will not accept the ampersand. Since this is just a label, I thought I could get away with using this symbol.
Is there a way to get the label to accept the ampersand?

Hope someone can assist me with this question:
Let's say I have a Table with many Product IDs records..
Product ID (Number)
Hyperlink Field (with a Hyperlink to an external Excel file)
What I would like to do is to create a Hyperlink that not only will it open the Excel file but it will also search and select the Product ID (in Excel) of the record on which the Hyperlink was clicked in Access.
Is this possible or am I just wishing too much?
I have a query which provides probability of occurrences for items A,B,C,D below 5, 10, 15 and 20.
Yet another query gives probability of occurrences for items A,B,C,D above 5,10,15 and 20.
Now I need the combined probability for each of the items A,B,C,D.
What is available and what is needed are both attached.
I have a table with (integer) numbers! using the format "00000" i can make sure that it will be 5 digits.
No i am aiming to combine the five digit number with a text in another column and do not succed at all.
what i want to get:
column A: number (e.g. 1)
column B: number 4 digits (e.g. 0001)
column C: number combined with string (e.g. ab0001cd)
Of course it would be a nice one to skip the coluimn B! - what ever i tried ended up in sth. like "ab1cd" at the best....
I have a problem that is Vista related. My business partner has just purchased a laptop with Vista and one of the problem areas is SendKeys. I don't have Vista and he is away at the moment so we only have part time communication so I am trying a few solutions in the hope of getting the problem fixed.
He is getting a message along the line of.....Access needs to be reinstalled because SendKeys is not available.....he does not has his MSOffice with him so that can't be tried at the moment, although everything else is working OK.
There are a few macros involved but I have converted then into VB Module and that works OK for me on XP, although it does not carry out all instructions but it basically works. But it will be a few days before he can try what I have sent him.
Note: I just notice that my conversion to VB module is not doing the SendKeys. No messages etc it is if the section covering SendKeys was not there. The example below was done with XP and macro. The SendKeys and the various other actions are all in the module. Edit...All is OK....my conversion of the macros to a module worked:D
So I would like to try another possible solution and that being to avoid SendKeys.
The situation involves a file note entry system. Each file note creates a different record and in each record there is a memo field with the file note that was made and of course time and date.
There is another table that holds one record for each person that has a file note made. Whether one file note is made or a 100 file notes there is only record.......The record is created when the first file note is made and the table will not accept duplicates on the persons ID number.
When a file note is made the system then opens the record in the other table and adds with SendKeys to the entry in the memo field on the "one record only table"
A form opened on the "one record" looks like this and as you can see the contents of the memo field from the "many records" have been combined into one. Can I do this without using SendKeys

i have a production database application in which there are many sections. every section's product stock is generated by running a complex query.
now when i want to add the result from different sections into a one combined stock , i could not design the query as it become too large and on running it produces the error "cannot open anymore database".
i think reason might be too many queries executing at same time .
so do i need to create a table from the stock queries of each section? and then add the tables to generate the combined stock query ?
I use several fields to capture a name: LName, FName, MI and Suffix.
In a report I combine the fields.
=[LName] & " " & [Suffix] & ", " & [FName] & " " & [MI]
This works fine if there is a suffix; however, without a suffix I have an extra space.
What is the "work around" to eliminate the space.
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?
I have a form "NewMetalF" that has three combo boxes. The first one is used to choose "Precious Metal" or "Base Metal". The second one shows all the metals based on the first combo box. When I open the form in form view alone the combo boxes work flawlessly. I run the form "NewMetalF" within another form "NewExternalPartF" by clicking a button "AddMetal". When the button is clicked "NewMetalF" opens. The first combo box is selected, and when the second combo box is clicked the error "Enter Paramater Value" "Forms!NewMetalF!cboPreciousOrBase".
