Reports :: Remove Prompt While Running Report
Apr 8, 2015
I have a report that is created from the following query (qryTotalProjectHours). What I am trying to do is get the total hours spent on Tasks within a given time period.
Code:
SELECT TasksEntries.Project, TasksEntries.Task, Sum(TimeTracker.WorkHours) AS TotalHours
FROM TasksEntries INNER JOIN TimeTracker
ON (TasksEntries.EmployeeId = TimeTracker.EmployeeId) AND (TasksEntries.TaskID = TimeTracker.TaskId)
GROUP BY TasksEntries.Project, TasksEntries.Task;
I accept the start and end dates in a form and pass it like shown below. WorkDate is a column in the TimeTracker table and is not present in any other table.
Code:
strWhere = "WorkDate BETWEEN #" & txtMgrRptStartDate & "# AND #" & txtMgrRptEndDate & "#"
DoCmd.OpenReport "rptTotalProjectHours", acViewPreview, "qryTotalProjectHours", strWhere, acWindowNormal
When the report is invoked, I get a box where it says
"Enter parameter value" for Workdate..
Is there anyway I can get rid of the prompt? I never thought you needed the column name in the SELECT statement to be able to run this.I should add the I tried the query with the WorkDate hardcoded in there and it worked fine and returned the correct results

I posted this within the Reports as well, but since this has a little bit of VBA decided to ask this here as well.
I have a report that is created from the following query (qryTotalProjectHours). What I am trying to do is get the total hours spent on Tasks within a given time period. A given Task can we worked on by multiple individuals and hence I need to find a way to aggregate the hours spent.
Code:
SELECT TasksEntries.Project, TasksEntries.Task, Sum(TimeTracker.WorkHours) AS TotalHours
FROM TasksEntries INNER JOIN TimeTracker
ON (TasksEntries.EmployeeId = TimeTracker.EmployeeId) AND (TasksEntries.TaskID = TimeTracker.TaskId)
GROUP BY TasksEntries.Project, TasksEntries.Task
I accept the start and end dates in a form and pass it like shown below. WorkDate is a column in the TimeTracker table and is not present in any other table.
Code:
strWhere = "WorkDate BETWEEN #" & txtMgrRptStartDate & "# AND #" & txtMgrRptEndDate & "#"
DoCmd.OpenReport "rptTotalProjectHours", acViewPreview, "qryTotalProjectHours", strWhere, acWindowNormal
When the report is invoked, I get a box where it says
"Enter parameter value" for Workdate..
Is there anyway I can get rid of the prompt? I never thought you needed the column name in the SELECT statement to be able to run this.
I should add the I tried the query with the WorkDate hardcoded in there and it worked fine and returned the correct results
I have attached the cut down version of the database that I am working on.Open up the frmManagerReport Form
Leave the Employee drop down empty
Enter the start and end dates ( I have used 4/1/2015 and 4/30/2015)
Select the 3rd option "Generate Tasks by Total Hours"
click on Run
When you do that you will see the prompt come up. Enter any date and you will see the report. The report generated uses the results from the query and does not filter on the date selected in the form. This is what I have been struggling to fix since yesterday but have reached nowhere..

On a report I have an image. Its properties are:
Name: OLEUnbound9
OLE Type: Embedded
OLE Type Allowed: Either
OLE Class: Microsoft Photo Editor 3.0 Photo
Class: MSPhotoEd.3
When I try and delete it I get an error message: The OLE server isn't registered. To register the OLE server, reinstall it
How do I reinstall it, or better still how do I simply delete the image?

I have created a custom menu used on my reports which contains all the icons I need and anchored them to the right side of the report. I have been able to remove the min, max and the close icons from the default report menu bar at the top right hand side as well as the "Ask A Question" dropdown. But I am not able to remove the "Restore window" button that comes with the report print preview.
How do I remove the "Restore Window" icon from the report's menu bar?
I'm using Access 2003...

My database is slowly coming together. For the final part of this phase i would like to create a shortcut on each users desktop which runs a summary report of information within my database.
I have criteria set so upon opening the report the user is asked for which address they wish to see information from which works great. But I do not want users to have access to the database, I just want them to be able to click a shortcut, be asked what address they are looking for and for the report to ping up in a 'Print Preview' type layout so information can be seen and displayed but not altered. All users have the access program.

Hi,
I know this can be done but I'm a novice at VBA. I have a batch file AutoLoop.bat which I run from command prompt at the moment. The idea is to run a VBA routine behind the onClick event of a command button in Access which would run this batch file in command prompt automatically. Say if the batch file path is I:AUTOGENLOOPGENAutoLoop.bat,
what VBA code can be used.
Thanks for any help.

I have a database and one of the functions is to track the purchase of fuel. Part of purchasing fuel is registering what the current odometer reads. My query gets the Vehicle ID, Date of Transaction and Odometer reading. I want to show a report that shows how many miles the vehicle is has traveled for a certain amount of time. If it's for 2013 then I'll put the criteria for 2014 in the date. This will give me a list of all vehicles and their odometer readings. I then sort the date by ascending.
In the report I group on vehicle ID and then I want to show all their transactions and add up how many miles were driven.
Vehicle 1
1/2/201
1/5/2013
1/15/2013
ETC...
Total Miles Driven in 2014: XXXXXX

I have DB in access 2007. I have a report that is uses a select query to generate the information for the report. It has been working great, But however lately like maybe with in the last month, it has been causeing Access 2007 to crash. I am having the same issue with another DB that uses the same information but that information is imported in. both Databases have worked great up until two months ago. Microsoft states that it is because of the program. I have tried to repair the DB by using the Repair option. I am confused as to why this would be happening. I can create a new report and it seems to work. but I do not want to change all the DB on everyone's computer just for this reason. I also have two buttons on my report that utilize macros to close or print the report.

Ok, so now this is where it's getting more complicated... (though I guess this is where you guys usually start)
When you have a query, and you type in your inputbox thingy like so:
http://reenen.fateback.com/image.jpg
PeriodEnd: [Enter period end date dd/mm/yyyy: ]
And you can have multiple, then it will prompt you for several of them.
Now this is not very tidy, so I'd rather do it on a form. How can I display the form as the query/report runs, and insert the values entered into the form as the inputs into my variables? (This case PeriodEnd)
-Canderel
Grrr... I can't get the image to display.

I'm using MS Access 2002 and I'm trying to create a prompt for a date and then enter that date into the body of the letter.
Also can the date format be short and converted into a long format on the letter.
Example:
Prompt - Enter Date
Date entered = 12/31/2013
Sample Letter:
Your subscription ends on December 31, 2013 if you would like to renew etc.....

The code below successfully saves a .pdf file to my c: drive. However, on occasion i want to overwrite a previously saved invoice e.g. 3815-140515-Bristol with an amended invoice but retain the same Invoice Number e.g. 3815-150515-Bristol.
Currently, if i save the invoice with the same invoice number but a different date it just saves down without overwriting the original invoice. Leaving 2 invoices with the same invoice numbers but with 2 different dates.
What I want to achieve is: Once I hit the SaveInvoice button the code will check that invoice Nr 3815 does not exist in c: drive and save normally. However, if it does exist a msgbox will then prompt me to overwrite.
Current code:
Private Sub SaveInvoice_Click()
'Save Invoice as PDF and annotate invoice number, site name, and date
Dim slFileName As String
' create the invoice as a pdf
slFileName = Me.txtInvoiceNr.Value & "-" & Format(Date, "ddmmyy") & "-" & Me.SiteName.Value & ".pdf"
DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, "rptinvoice", acFormatPDF, ("c:CompanyName InvoicesRegular Invoices" & slFileName)
MsgBox "Your Invoice was successfully Saved"

I have a couple of questions which are sort of related. They both revolve around Parameters with a Query/Report.
Here is a bit of background. The source Table is formatted in a way similar to this:
Code--Account#--Expense Description--Jan--Feb...
When running the Query, and associated Report, the user is prompted to input an Account# via a Parameter that I set up. The dialog box pops up with the word "Account#" and a box for the user to enter by what account that they want to restrict the Report. [Question 1] - Is there a way to make this dialog box contain a drop-down box with a list of predetermined accounts instead of the aforementioned entering of an account number? If not via this dialog box, is there another way?
Also, multiple accounts roll up into a single P&L line item. For example, let's say that accounts 1234 and 5678 both make up "Equipment". [Question 2] - Is there a way to run the Report in such a way to return all accounts which roll into a line item? I want to have the ability to run by either an individual account or the P&L line in total.

What forumla could I use in a report field to remove all characters before the first space in a text field e.g.
32A Bank Street --> Bank Street
19 Alder Street --> Alder Street
I've tried =Right([JLADD1],Len([JLADD1])-2) but this obviously doesn't work for the first example above.

I need some help with a report that has running totals of both positive and negative values. The report needs to have a subtotal of the positive values only, then the negative values only. The negative and positive values appear all in the same list. The running sum property over group/over all only adds all the values together which is of no use. Is there any easy way to do this?
Example Report snippet:
(Ignore all the dots - its the only way I could get everything to line up)
# Code...Cleaner...Current..+1Week
1..12....J. Smith........$12.20.....$4.50
2..15....R. Anderson...$10.00.....$2.30
3..18.....E. Jones.....-$14.00.....$1.50
4..19....A. Rob...........$3.50....-$2.50
TOTALS: (+)............$25.70.....$8.30
.............(-)...........($14.00)...($2.50)
-------------------------------------
Balance.................$11.70.....$5.80

what I think is a running total for each day. I have a form that collects data several times in the day. I want a report to show a total for each day and subtotals for each column and grand totals. I can add the dates and used a running total to the report but the report will show all the entries made for the day not a single total for the day. (I hope I said the correctly.) This needs to be done for all columns. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I've attached what I have so far.

I have a report about bowlers & series. I am attempting to do a running sum on each bowler's series & games bowled each week, so I can get a new composite average each week.The data looks good until the 2nd to last row of data. The running sum on series & games bowled for every bowler is blank even though I have a series that week for all bowlers. And the averages for that week show a 0. The very last row of data for all bowlers is fine and correct.

I have a report which contains 3 subreports. Now I require to do the following:
1. Hide the subreport if there is no data.
2. Remove the Blank space created when the data in subreport is null.
I tried to Set Can Grow and Can Shrink to Yes but still the blank space was not removed.
When I reduced the height of the subreports in the design view the blank space was reduced but it was still there.
What can be done so that the complete report auto adjusts itself if any sub-report is null? Something like the whole page auto fits itself in the available space?
The option of reducing the size of sub report in design view to minimum is there but it makes the report very un-handy for future reference.

Is there such a calculation in REPORT wherein I can have the Running Difference of several numbers?
Example is several Kilometer reading of a vehicle:
18716
18731
18742
difference of red color numbers: 15
difference of 2nd red color number and blue color numbers: 11
total: 26
I don't even know if my calculation is correct ...

I remember reading a tut on how to count records using Running totals in a report - but I cannot remember where I read it. It went something like this.
In the section that you want to count, add a field with record source '=1' and make it a running total for the group.
In the header (one level up from where the running total resides) add a field with record source =Max(RunningTotalField)
Although the 'intellisense' sees my 'RunningTotalField' when I create the above mentioned formula, when I run the report, its asking me to input the value for the 'RunningTotalField'?
Have I confused some concepts or am I on the right track?

I am using Access 2003 and trying to create a report that has a running balance of payments into an account. There are also payments out of the account which reduce the balance.
When I add the other columns into the expression for the running total the result shows in the report as "0".
The expression I am using is: =([Escrow Pmt Amount]-[Ins Pmt Amount])
I have this expression in the "Detail" section of the report with the "Running Total" toggled to "Accross Group".
How can I subtract the values in the other columns (Outgoing Payments) from the balance and continue the running total.
The list of payments within the report are date driven and grouped by an account number.

I have a simple spreadsheet:
Ref# Rev
97 b
98 c
99 c
99 e
100 c
100 b
101 a
102 b
I need to create a simple report but remove the duplicates (ex. Ref# 99,100). I need to delete the older Rev's (Ex Ref# 99 Rev C, Ref# 100 Rev B).Is this done throughRecordsets? will an SQL query do the trick?

I've been trying to write an SQL statement that the VB will accept in code but never got it to work. Depite copy/pasting the SQL from the Query Access creates. regardless.. I really need some help with this one. Thanks. Procedure follows. Get error that Report not found... The name is correct... I just want to pass the integer (index) from the ListBox into the Query then Open the Report... Thats all...
Private Sub previewReport_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_previewReport_Click
Dim intSelectMonth As Integer 'The Index of the Item Selected in Form List Box

Dear All:
I have created a database to keep track of transcripts that are requested. This database has their names, ID number, date requested(With a pop-up calender), transcript type requested(This is a combobox where the choices are "Official Copy" and "Student Copy") and address.
So far, it works great. What I wish to do is run a report that I can choose the begining date and ending date for a specified month to see the total "Official Copies" and "Student Copies" for a given month.
Any ideas out there?
Hats off to Colm!
Regards,
Dion
