Using Access Reports and the Internet
Microsoft makes it easy to develop Internet-aware applications by adding hyperlinks to reports and by allowing you to save an Access report as an HTML document. These features are covered in the following sections.Adding a Hyperlink to a Report
You can add hyperlinks to reports in the form of labels. When added, they serve as a direct link to a UNC or URL. To add a hyperlink to a report, follow these steps: 1. With the report open in Design view, add a label to the report. 2. Set the Hyperlink Address property to the UNC or URL you want to link to. The easiest way to do this is to click in the Hyperlink Address property; then click the ellipsis to open the Insert Hyperlink dialog box. 3. With Existing File or Web Page selected as the Link To, you can enter a file path or URL in the text box or click Current Folder to locate a file or web page in the current folder. You can also click to insert hyperlinks to Browsed Pages or Recent Files. With Object in This Database selected as the Link To, you can link to an object in the current database. 4. If you want to enter a Hyperlink SubAddress, click Bookmark. The Hyperlink SubAddress can be a range name, bookmark, slide number, or any other recognized location in the document specified in the Link to File or URL combo box. 5. Click OK. The Hyperlink Address and Hyperlink SubAddress properties are filled in with the information supplied in the Insert Hyperlink dialog box.The Hyperlink Address and Hyperlink SubAddress properties apply when the report is in Report view (not Print Preview). They also come into play only when a report is saved as HTML and viewed in a web browser, such as Internet Explorer 7.0. Saving a report as an HTML document is covered in the following section.
Saving a Report as HTML
To save a report as HTML, right-click the report in the Navigation Pane and select HTML Document from the More drop-down on the External Data tab of the ribbon. The Export – HTML Document dialog box appears. Pick a location and name for the file and whether you want to open the destination file after the export completes. Then click OK. Designate the HTML Output Options. Click OK when you are finished. The document is saved as HTML and assigned the name and location you specified.Saving a Report as XML
To save a report as XML, right-click the report in the Navigation Pane and select XML File. The Export – XML File dialog box appears. Pick a location and name for the file. Then click OK. Designate the Export XML Options. Click OK when you are finished. The document is saved as XML and assigned the name and location you specified. Saving reports as XML is covered in detail in Alison Balter’s Mastering Access 2002 Enterprise Development.This material originally appeared in Alison Balter's book Mastering Microsoft Office Access 2007 Development.
