This is giving me the error 'User defined type not defined'. I know I have to set something in a list somewhere but have forgotten how to do that. Where to go, and what to set?
My Access 2010 application has many reports. On almost every report, the user can select a new paper size. This paper size is remembered, so the next time the user selects the same report, he no longer have to set the paper size (I guess this is the default behavior for Access programs).One report does not behave properly. This report is a LEGAL size report. EVERY times the user selects this report, it prints on LETTER size, so the form is split in two pages. If the user selects teh LEGAL size paper, it works, but the next time the report defaults back to LETTER size paper.
I checked everywhere in the code, nowhere the paper size is set. In development, I selected the report, I changed the paper size to LEGAL, I ran the report. The next time I check the paper size of the report, it is back as LETTER size.After my OpenReport statement, I tried manally setting the paper size with "Reports(xxx).Printer.PaperSize = acPRPSLegal" but my report still defaults to LETTER size paper.
I need to have the last page of a report in access print to an 8.5x11 instead of 11x17 (the rest of the report has to print 11x17). No clue how to set it up so it's automatic...
I have a database that creates many forms based on queries which are based on user-defined variables. These are permanent variables added directly in the query, such as "if an employee is late 4 times in a month, we yell at them." I would like to be able to change this to "5 times in a month" if the users want to.
Rather than waiting for that to happen and having to change all my queries, i want to set up a form for them to access and edit the variable, save it, and then my queries to reference that variable.
My question is what is the best way to store and reference them? I could create a table, but i am not too sure how easy it would be to make my queries work with that.
I could also add them onto my main form which is always open, but I'm not sure how to make them save when access is closed. (a quick trial from my variable form won't let me update either a text box or label value on the main form).
I copied some VBA from one database to another. I didn't change anything and I am able to run it fine in the first database. But in the DB I pasted it to, I am received a Compile Error message with the XlApp As Excel.Application area highlighted.
Function OpenAutoCount() Dim xlApp As Excel.Application Dim xlWB As Excel.Workbook
I have created user defined function for lastdayofweek, lastdayofmonth, and firstdayofmonth. When I apply this function to an expression in my query, it returns a julian date. How do I apply the format for the calendar date?
Maybe I am not calling my function correctly. Here's my functions below as well as my expression..
Function LastDayThisMonth() LastDayThisMonth = DateSerial(Year(Date), Month(Date) + 1, 0) End Function
Function FirstDayThisMonth() FirstDayThisMonth = DateSerial(Year(Date), Month(Date), 1) End Function
On Compiling my assecc database VB code I get the following error message "User defined type not defined". I understand it is beecause I have not declared the Variable Type, but have no idea to exactly which part of the code the error is referring to.
How do I find out WHICH User defined type is not defined, especially when I have not got any (or do not want to use any) user defined types?
Thank you in advanced programming wizards. Kind regards, Adam.
When opening Access, the default printer changes from "Letter" to "User-Defined". The output is then unreadable. I then change it back to "Letter" and all is fine until I reopen Access with the same result. I'm using Access 2003 with a Brothers HL1440 How can I make Access leave the printer's default setting as it is?
I just published an access database to sharepoint. However, after I set some user as contributor, those users can see structure of my database, and export tables to excel directly. Is there anyway that we can remove the access to "Setting"?
I am trying to limit what a user can see when accessing a database in access. I am only testing with this in access before taking it to SQL server. I have 3 databases and I combined the data into one set of tables and now what i am trying to do is a certain user can only view data from a particular database.
I have a table with the users id and password, as well as an ID number from each database that I am trying to tie to the users.
for example one user can view and add/edit data in databases 1 and 3 but not 2. while there might be a user that can view and add/edit on 1 and 2 but not 3.
Report has records of errors. There are 3 types of error. In the report footer, I would like a total count (this is working!) and a count by type (can't get this to work).
Error Total =Count[ErrorType] Compliance Total =Sum(IIf([ErrorType]="Compliance",1,0)) Audit Total =Sum(IIf([ErrorType]="Audit",1,0)) Quality Total =Sum(IIf([ErrorType]="Quality",1,0))
I have tried setting groupings on the report but this alters the detail sorting (currently sent by the date field newest to oldest) and provides the count within the detail.
I am using the attachment field in my form in Access 2010. I downloaded a picture (a picture of paper clip) from the web to use it as the display image for the attachment field. When using the form, the paper clip picture is displayed so long as there is no attachment. When a file is attached, the display image changes to the type of file (in my case pdf). However, I want Access to display the paper clip icon.
Has anyone ever produced a function to let users, pick their own tab order for a form.
I am thinking along the lines of holding a tab order for each user for each form.
So when a form opens - if a user has saved a tab order the form will adopt it, if the user has never saved a tab order, the sytem default will be applied.
Is it possible to have an autonumber that is generated depending on the entry in a particular field? I'm creating a database to track various enquiries and I would like each enquiry to have a unique number that is preceded by a codenumber that identifies its origin. For example:
I have a combo box that the user can select a value and the form will display that record on the form. This all works fine, but if the user dosn't enter anything in the combo box, it does not work. Is there a way to have it work if the combo box is left empty? Thanks in advance - John
I am trying to get the list of all user defined tables from the Access database.
If I use the following query in Access it's working fine and getting the result. But if I am trying to execute the query in ASP page, it's not working. I am getting an error ([Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Record(s) cannot be read; no read permission on 'MSysObjects'.)
Can u please tell me the reason.
SELECT MSysObjects.Name AS TableName FROM MSysObjects WHERE (((MSysObjects.Type)=1) AND ((MSysObjects.Flags)=0));
Note: If you have anything, to extract user defined tables, please tell me. Either one works out for me.
I have a query [CustomerOrdersByDate] that requests user input for [CustomerID], a 'Start Date' and an 'End Date' for the [OrderDate] field.
the Report works fine, however I'd like it to be able to take the Start & End dates the user has inputted when running the report, and make it appear in the Report header e.g. Orders Received from [CustomerID], Between {user defined}[Enter Start Date] And {user defined}[Enter End Date].
I have added a text box to display the results and played around with a few different expressions, etc... unsuccessfully so far, and as I'm not up to working with VBA code, I would appreciate some help!
Is there any way of creating a user defined query/ report based on fields in a table? Basically we want a report to be generated based on whatever fields the user enters. So, say we have 30 different fields in a table, the user gets to click on a button that gives them the option to create a report that includes: field1, field2, field3 and where field10 = Blue. Is this possible to do?
I want to run an activity query (i.e. objective is to check which data lines have changed) within a user defined date range. Please advise what is the most efficient way to achieve this.
Is it possible to run such a report without having a date column i.e. does Access have a hidden line modification date that can be used in a search?
Im stuck! I am pretty much a novice when it comes to access and have been given the task or creating some reports to stop us doing it manually.
Within a query, I have a date column which we would currently enter the following into the criteria:
Between #01/01/2008# And #31/01/2008#
for the month of January.
What i want to be able to do (and i know is possible as ive done it in the past but cant remember how) is have a pop up when the query is ran to enter the Start date and End date. I remember it being something to do with square brackets but cant get it to work.
Could somebody please tell me how to set the size that my form will appear when loaded, because it's really annoying me trying to get them to appear at the size I want.
In my database I have a main form and depending on the options chosen on this form other forms will pop up on the screen.
I want the main form to cover the whole page therefore in the On Open event I have used the Docmd.Maximize function. The problem is that after this point all the other forms will maximize once they are open! How can I stop the pop up forms from maximizing and make them open in a specific size? What code can I use for this?
