    print form to pdf with custom file name per page

    Well I did have to print each page manually, and it took me a long long time. As my VBA is only slowly improving, would someone possibly help me on how to integrate my record source and what I am trying to do, with the code in Apr Pillai's function, which is here...

    Printing form repaint

    OK, so I rewrote the form as a report, and rewrote the VBA behind it. I then set the thing to print to pdf. Two problems. 1. The line break that I put in the footer (just as in the form) was ignored so all the report was one long stream. 2. The visibility commands that are listed in the VBA and...

    Printing form repaint

    I have a complicated form which is actually a letter, that I need to print out to pdf. There are a load of visibility controls that I have put in the forms "On Current" event. If I view the form on screen it is good. If I print as a multi page PDF, the form is not repainting correctly between...

    print form to pdf with custom file name per page

    Dear Apr Pillai, thank you for replying to my post. I have tried using the method you have advised, but not been too successful. I think this is because I am not experienced enough with VBA, and I am not patient enough (and do not have sufficient time at the moment) to use the Northwind samples...

    I am working with 2 forms, one an index, and one showing detailed data for the records on the index. My users filter the index down in a number of ways to a smaller set of records, and then choose individual records to open and edit. I have used the stlinkcriteria to relate my 2 forms. But I...

    listfilestotable function additional fields

    thanks for the reply. I had a go at shoe-horning your modified date into the function, but my vba is too novice to get any success, and I end up breaking what was working previously! I can see where code needs changing to suit my options, but adding in variables and getting the syntax right is...

    Timesheet database issues

    Ok I have prompted no responses, so either my database design is so flawed that I am beyond hope, or I have not asked a clear enough question. So I will be more specific - but honestly any advice really appreciated. A form "F_Daily_overall_Time_Sheet" is based on data from "Q_Work_Days". I...
