? about closing this popup form

Using A2K. I have a form that allows the user to print one or more
reports. The user checks which report they want printed then they
click on a button to start printing. A popup form displays when they
click on the button and prompts them for a date range. This date
range is then used on each report. (I make the popup invisible when
the range is entered. So it's open during the printing so that the
reports can access the date range.)

After the last report has printed, I want to close the popup form then
redisplay it if the user requests more printing. My problem is that
I'm not sure how to tell when the last report has printed.

Thanks for any help or advice.

Put the following code in the click event of your button:

DoCmd.OpenForm "NameOfDatePopu pForm",,,,,acDi alog

<<Code to run the selected reports>>

Docmd.Close acForm, "NameOfDatePopu pForm"

Perhaps you could avoid the problem altogether, by having two unbound
controls on the report form for the user to enter the to and from dates.

Yeah, that sounds like a good suggestion. I'll try that. Thanks.

Sorry, should have been more clear. I tried that but the form closed
before all the reports printed. Therefore I got prompted for the
dates with each report. Thanks for your reply.

I need some help with closing a popup window. I'm making an online portfolio, that has one base page with text and thumbnails. When a user clicks on a thumb, a new window opens containing a larger image and a caption (each contained on a separate htm document).

Any idea of why this will not work? I have an image editor in a popup that is opened from a form in a window containing data as well as displaying images for the record. When the image has been saved, it posts to the form in the opener from the popup, updating the record with the new image. Everything is working perfectly but the popup refuses to close. After the image is saved to the server, this is the HTML which is generated:

Hi, I have a 'main' form called frmIssues which has a subform control (named linkIssuesDrug) containing the subform sfrmLink_Issues_Drugs.

What I want to happen is for subform with the new edits to be updated on the main form when I close the popup. I'm sure this is a very small bit of code in the the 'On close' event for the popup...

Okay, here's the situation: we want to be able to display ASPX pages in an UpdatePanel. The reasons for this are performance related. The site in development uses *lots* of modal popups from some pages, and we don't want to load all that content until it's requested. So, what we want to do is place an IFRAME inside an UpdatePanel and, in the onclick event for the linkbutton or button control, set the SRC so that the content is loaded on...
