Set the number of rows per view in data sheet form

Post by sergio trajano »

Hello!

I want that my form in data sheet mode shows me exactly 12 registers (rows) each time, so I can see a unique full year each time (from register january to register december).

Is it possible? How do I set my form in data sheet mode so it shows me only 12 records at once?

Thanks for any help.

I think I know what you want from MS Access forms.

Code: Select all

-----------------------------
[Date]  [Time]  [Item v]
[Name]  [Amount]
----------------------------
[Date]  [Time]  [Item v]
[Name]  [Amount]
----------------------------
[Date]  [Time]  [Item v]
[Name]  [Amount]
----------------------------
[Date]  [Time]  [Item v]
[Name]  [Amount]
-----------------------------
[Date]  [Time]  [Item v]
[Name]  [Amount]
----------------------------
[Date]  [Time]  [Item v]
[Name]  [Amount]

May be possible with a lot of coding. Never tried. Too much trouble.
What you can have is a table control to navigate and select records, together with one block of detailed form controls for the currently selected record.

AND if you install the report builder extension (or LibreOffice) then you get this layout with reports but not with input forms
