recording the print date
Have a situation in which the printing (on paper) needs to have recorded the date the printing occurred. This would mainly be a field on the form that says when the report was printed. It won't make a difference how many times the report is printed so long as the date appears in a field. The users use the standard Access 2007 printing methods to print the report so adding a PRINT button on a form or the report is not acceptable. Is is possible to capture A2007's print button? If so, how is it done? Any samples, examples, or links will be helpful. Thanks.... John

Back in the old days....
I used to pop a message asking if the printing had been a success rather
than just mark something printed.
It's a rare problem today but I still use it.
Something like
If MsgBox("Did everything print OK?", vbYesNo, "Continue")= vbYes Then
Me.YourFieldName = Date()
End If
You could also use Now() to save the time and date.
You will have to change the way 2007 writes these buttons and make sure it
writes code rather than a macro. (Although it can probably be done with a
macro.)
Click the Access button and select "Access Options" at the bottom right of
the screen.

Thanks. The message box trick could work. Since it is the Access printing
that is doing the work of printing the Access report, where do you place the
msgbox? Also, I looked at the Access Options but what in particular should I
be looking for?
Thanks again.

I thought it could be done globally but can't find where.
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/access/ha012142131033.aspx#convertmacrostovba
will guide you through converting and it works on forms.
When done you will have something like what is below and the Msgbox would be
right under the DoCmd.OpenReport.
Private Sub Command105_Click()
On Error GoTo Command105_Click_Err
DoCmd.OpenReport "Products", acViewPreview, "", "", acNormal
Command105_Click_Exit:
Exit Sub
Command105_Click_Err:
MsgBox Error$
Resume Command105_Click_Exit
End Sub

Date Error
Hello, Any help on the following matter would be greatly appreciated... I recently upgraded from Windows 95 to Windows 98 (yes, I realize the year is now 2005) and when I tried accessing one of my Excel spreadsheets, the dates were all whacky... For instance, what used to show as 05-Feb-2005 now appeared as "05<>Feb<>2005" (where <> is actually a small square). When I input a new date, it treats the entry as text as opposed to a date. This is even though I format the cell to recognize the entry as a date. Has anyone experience this before? I've been able...

Hello, Any help on the following matter would be greatly appreciated... I recently upgraded from Windows 95 to Windows 98 (yes, I realize the year is now 2005) and when I tried accessing one of my Excel spreadsheets, the dates were all whacky... For instance, what used to show as 05-Feb-2005 now appeared as "05<>Feb<>2005" (where <> is actually a small square). When I input a new date, it treats the entry as text as opposed to a date. This is even though I format the cell to recognize the entry as a date. Has anyone experience this before? I've been able...
Printing Double Columns
How do I get an Excel spreadsheet to print in double columns? The two columns in question are narrow enough for this. Art David McRitchie has a macro that will "snake" the columns. http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/snakecol.htm Personally, I'd copy into MSWord (maybe hitting NotePad if MSWord slows down when I paste). Then use MSWord's Format|Column to make life easy. AjM wrote: > > How do I get an Excel spreadsheet to print in double columns?

Filter eliminating records without and detail records
I need a filter to be able to hide records that don't have any records in the detail form. My example is Member Master and Event Detail. If there is no data in the Event Detail, I need to hide that Member Master record. Change the Can Shrink property in the form to yes.

Completion Percentage of a date range
I have started a task sheet in excel and i have a "task description" coloumn, a "start date", "finish date", "number of days" and a "% complete" column. What i want to achieve is the user to enter the first task start date and the number of days it will take to complete. Then excel will work out the end date and the percent complete field relating to the current date. Is there a easy formula of working out the percentage? Many thanks Hi Brian, I think this is right? Assume Column A is Task, B is Start Date, C is No. of Days, D is End ...
Printing a Register
When I view my check reg on screen, the ending balance agrees with my running balance. When I print the reg, the ending balance is wrong unless I change the view to "all". I prefer to filter my display to unreconciled transactions for last 3 months. This way I don't have to scroll many screens. The printout is also one page for easy insertion in my client's folder . When I print from the filtered view, I get an incorrect balance in the printed page although the screen is correct. When I change to "all", I do get the correct balance but I don't want a stack...

Publisher 2007 Color Printing option not enabled
I'm trying to get the best possible printing of my picture on postcards (marketing material). When I upgraded to 2007 the quality improved. I notice that the "Tools", "Commercial Printing Tools" "Colot Printing" option is not enabled. What's it for and why is it not enabled? My printing is very slow with Mail Merge from Excel (55 seconds per page of 4 postcards), but I will post that separately. Thanks. Anyone?
