    Change name of pdf report to reflect record number

    I have a report that is attached to an email as a pdf doc. It is a generic name currently and it's been pointed out to me that it would be better for the name to have the issue number in it's name, e.g. "Non Conformity 34.pdf". This number would be taken from the field NonConformID on the...

    Pivot chart on form with combo lookup

    Sorry I'm not sure how to implement this? I'd like the user to have a list of suppliers that they could select from and then that returns the pivot chart for that supplier only. It will return the number of products that have been faulty per quarter and per month on seperate forms.

    Print Pivot chart form without displaying print button & in colour

    I did a work around by converting a macro to vba. The solution to print a form with the buttons not showing is: Private Sub Command1_Click() On Error GoTo Command1_Click_Err 'Sets focus on form [Supplier Issues per Month Query].SetFocus 'Makes buttons invisible so will not show up on...

    Print Pivot chart form without displaying print button & in colour

    It's not a report that's printing but rather the form that is loaded up. It's a pivot chart that's built into the report and has a print button on the page. I can use a print macro but the botton displays. Is there a way to get DoCmd.PrintOut to default to colour instead of B&W??

    Updating Combo box in form where items don't exist

    I used the code from this database and tried to replicate it but got stuck as I don't know vba. I want the list to be limited. However, once someone tries to enter some code that's not on the list, the error message appears to double click to open a new form. From there, it's meant to take the...

    Updating Combo box in form where items don't exist

    Yeah I know, it's a lookup and displays the text but the primary key is numeric. Not sure how to explain it. There are 2 fields in the table, the combo box in the form only displays the second field and that's the field I want to update.
