Hi,
I have the following code that works great to preview a report using a form to prompt for start/end date using cmd button. What I would also like to do is add a button to allow a user to save report as file and/or e-mail report. The code that I am using does not seem to allow this. :/ Can someone help me tweak what I already have to complete these tasks save to file and e-mail using two separate buttons? If I can't use the below code to complete these task's what are my best options.
I would also like to use this same code to set the start/end date for queries if I can I am just not sure how to do it. Maybe I will need to post that question under queries.
Code:
Private Sub Command5_Click()
'On Error GoTo Err_Handler 'Remove the single quote from start of this line once you have it working.
'Purpose: Filter a report to a date range.
'Documentation: http://allenbrowne.com/casu-08.html
'Note: Filter uses "less than the next day" in case the field has a time component.
Dim strReport As String
Dim strDateField As String
Dim strWhere As String
Dim lngView As Long
Const strcJetDate = "\#mm\/dd\/yyyy\#" 'Do NOT change it to match your local settings.
'DO set the values in the next 3 lines.
strReport = "Week1rpt" 'Put your report name in these quotes.
strDateField = "[FollowUp1]" 'Put your field name in the square brackets in these quotes.
lngView = acViewPreview 'Use acViewNormal to print instead of preview.
'Build the filter string.
If IsDate(Me.txtStartDate) Then
strWhere = "(" & strDateField & " >= " & Format(Me.txtStartDate, strcJetDate) & ")"
End If
If IsDate(Me.txtEndDate) Then
If strWhere <> vbNullString Then
strWhere = strWhere & " AND "
End If
strWhere = strWhere & "(" & strDateField & " < " & Format(Me.txtEndDate + 1, strcJetDate) & ")"
End If
'Close the report if already open: otherwise it won't filter properly.
If CurrentProject.AllReports(strReport).IsLoaded Then
DoCmd.Close acReport, strReport
End If
'Open the report.
'Debug.Print strWhere 'Remove the single quote from the start of this line for debugging purposes.
DoCmd.OpenReport strReport, lngView, , strWhere
Exit_Handler:
Exit Sub
Err_Handler:
If Err.Number <> 2501 Then
MsgBox "Error " & Err.Number & ": " & Err.Description, vbExclamation, "Cannot open report"
End If
Resume Exit_Handler
End Sub
Thanks for the help!
