How to maintain maximized report when filtering by dialog box

23 New Member
Access 2003/ XP

Hi,

I have a report that has its On Open event set to open a form in the style of a dialog box

[code]
Private Sub Report_Open(Can cel As Integer)

DoCmd.OpenForm FormName:="A_fr mAvpBrTc", _
WindowMode:=acI con

End Sub
[code]

The dialog box opens underneath the report. Also, the report shrinks when I click in dialog box. The dialog box is used to dynamically filter the report and works fine.

How can I get the report to open with the Dialog ontop of it? Also, how do I keep the report maximized while making selections in the dialog box?

1. Set popup and modal properties of your dialog form to yes. (if this impacts your filter, set popup = yes, set modal =no and eliminate acDialog mode in #3 below)
2. In the report's Open event code, place the following code after the open form command:
DoCmd.Maximize
3. change your open form command to open in dialog mode:
DoCmd.OpenForm "Your Form", acNormal, , , , acDialog

I designed a dialog box with a combo to select individual vendors from a form and its related data for print ouput. Though the dialog box seems to work okay, I apparently do not have the filtering code behind the OnOpen Event Procedure of the report structured correctly. Anyone's assistance will be appreciated, although I would like to stay on the same track. Here is what I have done: 1. Created a new vendor query (qryVendorRpt) with...

I already have a report designed under Reports. When I use filtering in Forms or Tables, I see no way to select that filtered list when I am in Reports, and there appears to be no way to do the filtering when I am in Reports. I have received two replies to this message, posted a few days ago within another Subject. One requires making programming type statements. That should not be necessary -- Access must have a quick way to just click...

I tried to ask this question before on the 14th of January but I never got a reply. I'm still struggling with the problem. I'll try to rephrase the question: I have a crosstab query with rows of students and columns of activities and the data are the students' scores in each activity. No problem, almost. The problem is that there are five classes at the moment and will be more classes (or courses) in future semesters. I don't want...

How do I get the report to not spend time pulling up the data when I'm going to bail out of the report anyway? Below is the code in my report. I first show the user a form where they can select some filtering parameters which I put in Getz's TaggedValues class. But they can hit a Cancel button if they decide they don't want any report. When I test the Cancel button I'd like the report to close immediately but it seems to spend some...

I have a window application. In one of the form, a datagrid has a dataview as its datasource. Initial filtering result would give the datavew 3 items. When I double click on the datagrid to edit the selected lie item at which case I would pop up a separate dialog box to do so, in the debugging code, the dataview.count would return 0. I get a error message because I tried to get values out of a dataview that holds 0 items. Does anyone...

Evenlater, Yeah, I don't open the report in preview mode when I setup my recordsource, filters, or sorts. Before I give my solution, I would say that your code will be simpler if you drop the "Sort" button and simply include the sorts in the primary window rather than a window in dialog mode. For example, I use 5 sorts in my preview screen, the first sort is always enabled, the second sort only becomes enabled if the first is not null...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
