Have a generic dashboard report with multiple charts in it. One in particular is a bar chart, but depending on what the dashboard is produced for, the bar chart may have too many bars in it to make it legible. Therefore I'd like to conditionally determine the number of bars (basically the number of records in the query) and then make the chart go from one page and continue onto another.
I've got a report, which on the screen is three chrts and a page break in between. Page is set up to print landscape.
When I print the report or save to pdf it adds a lot of pages in between 2 and 3. It seems to be of chart no.2 getting smaller and smaller. I've attached a copy of the pdf so you can see what I mean.
I know how to create a chart in an access report, put it in the group header or footer and link it such that the the grouping filters the chart.
My VP wants me to create a chart that compares each invididual providers episiotomy rate (something that is done to pregnant women during delivery) to the overall divisional rate on a monthly basis.
I know how to do this with 2 charts, ie 2 different group levels. One chart goes in the date grouping level (the overall rate) and another goes in the provider grouping level (the individual provide rate).
is there a way to have this in one graph in an access report?
I have a report that needs to show about 20 different fields from 24 records. I have it set up in landscape view, with one record per line (running horizontally). It allows me to show about 15 of the fields, spanning two pages (wide). I don't know how to add a third page to show the remaining fields.There are no Groupings.
Also, is there a way to "wrap" text in the column header?
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'm producing PDF reports in a VBA routine in Access through the DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport.
The routine works great, however i have now a new requirement and i need to change the report header so to if Country X is selected in a drop-down menu, then only image X is shown on the report header; if country Y is selected then only image Y is shown on report header.
I was simply thinking to make this through the "visible" option of the image, however it doesn't work because i get error "report must be open".
I have a databse of bird ringing (banding) which I have turned into an encouter history by using the pivot table capability in MS Access. Example attached.
For each animal, identified by a ring number in column B, there is a set of "encounters" over time. A blank in a date column indicates that the animal was not seen or captures in that year. A number in the column indicates that it was seen or captured n times.
To format these data correctly for subsequent surival probability analysis, I need to replace all of the blanks, in each of the "year" columns with a 0 and anything that isn't blank (e.g. 1, 2 or 3) with 1. So, I need columns F to L to look like C to D.
It was simple enough to do this one column at a time...
UPDATE [Capture history intermediate] SET [Capture history intermediate].[1971] = "0"
WHERE ((([Capture history intermediate].[1971]) Is Null))
But I have a lot of data, spanning 40 years (i.e. 40 columns) and I will probably have to do this conversion many times as I work on sub-sets of my master database.
So, question is, is there a short-cut way to avoid having to create 40 different queries and run each one seperately?
I am editing a database that provides the option of creating custom reports, where the user can input a date range of their choice and receive aggregate data for that time frame. Although all of the numbers in the report are correct, I am having trouble with a chart that I inserted into the report.
Specifically, if the date range requested spans 2 calendar years (i.e. April 2014 through January 2015), the data for January 2015 appears at the beginning of the year (so the chart x-axis is for Jan through Dec, and the Jan 2015 data is showing up in Jan (as if it was 2014, not the end of the given range in 2015). When I try with smaller time frames within a calendar year, it adjusts just fine (i.e. shrinking the window so just March-May is displayed on the graph).
How to adjust the axis so that it properly records the data range- so that it would start the axis with April and end in January, for example?
I have a report where the detail section, holding 4 subreports, takes up 5 inches in the middle of the page between the header and footer. We want the entire 5 x 8 area enclosed in a box on every page. I have tried to achieve this by putting a line in the Detail_Format section:
Code: boxDetail.Height = 5 * 1440 * Pages
However, when I run the report, I get pages 1/3 correctly, then 2/3 and 3/3 with no detail section or box, and then pages 4/3, 5/3, and 6/3 with blank detail sections and no box. If it's a 1-page report, the same - page 1/1 is perfect and page 2/1 is blank, no data and no box. I also sometimes (but not always) get overflow errors from the Detail_Format event.
I know it's not a margin error because that would be every other page, and the page count wouldn't be doing that. (Still, I have scrupulously checked every margin, and they all look fine.) Getting this look on the report is a priority. Any way to achieve the same result with the box without causing the missing data and extra pages?
I have already created a summary report that is one page long, however, every time I view my report in report view, export to PDF or print, the report has duplicate copies! Not blank pages. Just duplicate copies of my one page. The report is generating hundreds (about 700) of the same exact page. How do I force my report to have just one page.
These days more and more of my databases are wanting to be accessed via the web as well as from MS Acess. I guess this is the norm these days but in most of our (office) dbs it's just 'web for web's sake' and there is no real need to access it outside of Ms Access.
Bu hey that's what they want...
Problem with one such db is that a lot of the fields are memo fields and hold a LOT of text and they want to create MS Access reports/PDFs as well as have nicely formatted html for the text on the web pages.
I seem to be able to cater for one or the other but not both.
1. I can leave the memo fields as raw text and the reports/PDFs look fine with the report formatting, but on the web page there is no formatting and the text ends up in one block paragraph with no formatting.
2. Use a html control for the hmemo fields and store all the html tags within it. The web page looks nicely formatted but the html tags will show up in the PDFs!
I've tried various tag stripping tools but they seem to give unpredictable results.
I also don't want to just dump the PDFs on the web, as they will be static and it's just plain lazy! (too many unnecessary PDFs on the web IMO)
I have a form that looks and prints exactly as I want it to, except for two little things. These things are extra pages. They don't appear on the print preview, but they always show up on the printer and on the pdf file when I email it. One page is blank and the last page has "Page 1 of 1" at the bottom right corner of the page. I would always limiting the printing to one page.
I have a DB with all my patients and (among other things) all their referral source.
I would like to print a status report of all my patients, grouped by the referral source, and fax them to the appropriate offices. Easily done with the report wizard.
What I need to know is, how do I create one report, but force a new page for each referral source?
My records are huge, with 2 memo fields. One memo field has the complete content of journal articles, so it's quite a lot of text. What I'd like to do is, per the title, split record data into 2 report pages each with the first page holding the summary field data and the second page holding the journal content only.
I've experimented with the page break functions, can grow / can shrink properties and some of the other things that would be relevant here but can never seem to get them to work.
I'm working with getting a 3 page report to print/create PDF of the 3 pages. Right now I have the formatting set up for the 3 pages but each is an individual report.Is there a way to combine the reports into a single report? I've been messing around with subreports but can't get it to display correctly.
I have a report I want to generate in Access 2010. I have a text box with the following:
Code:
="Page " & [Page] & " of " & ([Pages]+[Forms]![ReportForm]![PageCount])
What I am attempting to do is increase the maximum number for the total number of pages in the report. As it reads right now when I go into print preview it looks like
"Page 1 of " That is all. It doesn't seem to calculate the new total number of pages. Yes the report form is open, and yes there is value in the PageCount in the Report Form.I had this working in another database, but this one isn't being as nice. The reason for adding to the total page count is because additional pages will be added to the report that aren't in the database. how to increase the total number of pages in the report.
I was able to create only 3 pages in access report. I am not able to go beyond 3 pages since the page footer is not moving down, means I am not able to drag it down.
It is a simple report of resume with only text boxes. My report comes around 10 pages.
Send only one or two pages of a multi-page report. I have a report that has three pages. I only want to send the first two as a pdf file. Can this be done with VBA? I know it can be done using Exporting Data on the External Data ribbon, but how can I do it via VBA?
I have set up a report in Access. However, when I look at it in print preview, I get the message that the section width is greater than the page width, and that some pages will be blank. It is obvious that the Detail Section is the issue, but I can't figure out how to reduce the section width. The detail section only contains a few text boxes that are well within the margins of the other sections.
How do I adjust the section width so there won't be any blank pages?
I can not get my Access Report to give me a total number of pages by group. I've been able to have it give the correct page number per group but not the total number of pages in each group. I've looked at the threads and it appears that in order to get this, you must do a 2 part pass. 1st to get the page number and then to get the total papers per group.
I've used the code supplied and when I do a print preview, I get the message that it can not find the control, Me!ctlGrpPages. This is the control I created and placed in my page footer section of the report. I've also seen numerous references to the report, "Employee Sales by Country" in the Northwind database. I downloaded the database but could not find this report in the database.
I have been asked to create a database very quickly for a small group that needs to scan multiple pages into an Access 2007 form. They they would like all scanned documents to be converted to PDF and stored on a shared network folder which can be accessed by their group. I have tried several ideas posted but, I have been unable to get any to work correctly. Any sample of working database that the scanning portion is working? I am so involved with other projects right now that I just don't have the time to create a scanning process on the database.
So I am adding a chart (on a subreport) to a report that has multiple subreports already. I have gotten the chart to show up correctly on the report, but now 2 of my other subreports are not working. I am being prompted to input parameters for these subreports that used to pull their parameters (between dates) from the main report.
I read somewhere that charts master/child linking doesn't work but I'm not sure if that applies to subreports with charts on them, or just charts in general. I've tried changing the query on the chart subreport a little without luck. Is this likely some glitch thing? Should I keep trying to alter the query or maybe there is some other work around option?
I have a query written that has two numbers. One is the trucking fleet size (63) and the other is the average number of trucks used over a time period (in this example, its 52.2)..I just want to create a pie chart that has 52.2/63. so the pie would be roughly 90% filled.
