    Print report to 2 different printers

    Another solution would be to open up the Print Dialog Box through your print command button and manually select the printer. Of course, you would have to run this command twice, but it would save you from having 2 copies of the same report.

    Query has locked-record

    Just another thought....sometimes when I want to try some new code, I can crash my database. Unfortunately, erasing the code does not fix the database, because an internal record has been corrupted. The only solution I have found is to import all tables, queries, forms, reports, etc into a new...

    Query has locked-record

    Is there something unique about this query, a table, a field, a join. You state that it is okay running from the zipped file, but when you install, it crashes the program? Install the program and open up the query and run it while in design mode - does it still crash? If so, then rebuild the...

    Creating 2 page report with seperate orientations

    Sorry, access does not allow for different orientations on the same report, nor does it allows for different orientations within a main/subreport. The only way around this is to use rotating text (addin), or the simplest method use a graphic program to make your front and back as a template...

    SubTotal on a Form

    The best and easiest way to achieve this is to have a main form with 2 subforms in continuous view. Each subform, would have its query set to only select records 1 through 5 for the 1st subform, and then records 6 through 10 for the 2nd subform. Within each subforms footer, create an unbound...

    printing forms

    Check the margins on your form and adjust accordingly (usually your right hand margin). The problem here is that your forms actual size, together with the margins are set to a size larger than the actual paper size, which causes a runoff after each record printed. [This message has been...

Each time you run this query, it will delete the table that it made previously and set up a new table with the name selected. If you don't want your users to see this message, then you...

    Make sure that the columns within your datasheet are not frozen, then simply highlight the title and drag to the column that you want it in. It is a good idea, once set, to freeze the columns again. Good luck.

    Shrinking labels?

    As you can see, labels do not provide this. Use a text box instead and set the control source of your text box to act as labels, as follows, replacing the correct field name: =IIf(IsNull([TextboxHomePhone]),Null,"Home Phone:") What the above does, is if your actual field containing the...
