Default Report Viewer in Access? - 08-25-2010 , 01:54 PM






Is there a way to view a report inside a control? I want to have a form
with a list of reports and view the report in another control on the same
form in Access 2007.

Is this possible?

Thanks.

It is possible in Access 2010.

Search for NavigateTo.

P.S. Reports can only be seen in report view.

Forms or Reports can be viewed via a Subreport Control in a Report. At
least through Access 2003, however, a Subreport Control cannot be placed on
a Form, nor can a Report be viewed in a Subform Control on a Form.

It is possible in Access 2010.

Search for NavigateTo.

You don't even have to use navigate to. Sub-form controls in access 2010
supports both forms and reports.

It likely this was changed for the new navigation control (which is really
just sub-forms anyway). So, prior to 2010, no, but for access 2010, you can
simply drop a sub-form control into a form, and the source object drop down
combo shows and allows the selection of a reports in addition to forms as we
always could.

Yes, but using NavigateTo he can also give the WHERE clausal to the
report the easiest way possible.

Ah, ok. Very good point - one I had not thought of.

I suppose one could just stuff/change the sql into the form/reports record
source, but I not tested doing this.

It is BrowseTo.

Here is the code I use


DoCmd.BrowseTo acBrowseToReport, ReportName,
"MainForm.Navigationsubform", ReportWhereClausal, , acFormReadOnly
