Hi, all!
I have a report with quite a few fields that are hidden and moved depending on if they are tracked by the user or not. The report is previewing and printing just fine. However, my user wants to be able to open the same report in preview mode for multiple wells selected from a list box. So, one report might have 20 fields visible, and the next might only have 15 fields visible. I can get it to print one right after the other, but it will only preview the last one selected. Any ideas on how I can get the report to preview one right after the other?
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks,
Brandi

Please show us the code you are using to launch the report(s) now. That way we'll have a common starting point for discussion.
Thanks,
Jim
I have a form where the user selects the desired report and enters any criteria into text boxes or selects from combo/list boxes. There is code that gets the name of the report and a function that creates the where clause. Here's the basic code for printing the report:
'Print a separate report for each Well
Set db = CurrentDb
Set qdf = db.QueryDefs("q ryWells") ‘Active WellIDs
strSQL = qdf.SQL
Set rst = db.OpenRecordse t(strSQL, dbOpenDynaset)
strNewWhere = ""
With rst
If .RecordCount <> 0 Then
.MoveFirst
Do Until .EOF
strNewWhere = strWhere & " AND WellID = " & !WellID
DoCmd.OpenRepor t strDocName, lngView, , strNewWhere
.MoveNext
Loop
End If
End With
Set qdf = Nothing
Set rst = Nothing
Set db = Nothing
Where:
strDocName = “rptWellLog”
strWhere = "ReadDate Between #5/1/10# And #5/9/10#"
lngView = 0 ‘Print
Thanks!

Shouldn't lngview be acPreview if you want to preview these reports? I don't see lngview being set, so I don't understand why they don't all behave the same way.

@jimatqsi
This is all in a function, and when I call the function, I pass it lngView. It prints each one fine, but only previews the last one. I think it opens each one, but the user only sees the last one because each time it opens a new one, it replaces the one before it. Somehow I'm going to have to dynamically create a copy of the original report for each well and open each one right after each other. Does that make sense?

You could go right to .pdf files and specify they should be opened. That would do it, but it's not really a preview.

You may instantiate the same report class (Reprt_<report name>) as multiple instances via global object variables.
Example: -
Dim col As New VBA.Collection
-
-
-
Private Sub btn_Click()
-
-
Dim rpt As Report_rpt
-
Set rpt = New Report_rpt
-
rpt.Visible = True
-
col.Add rpt
-
-
End Sub
