"Print Label" Button - Don't Want to Duplicate Old - Microsoft Community


hopefully can me think through...

when user in database , adding new inventory items how edit/print inventory labels if create tab @ top not available - i've made hidden intentionally. 

they'd printing labels added items - not in inventory.

but lets add 100 items morning, print labels, , add 100 afternoon. how make sure 100 items morning don't print again? 

here i'm thinking:

-add field "todaysdate" master inventory table default value of today's date 

-create query pulls items added today

-create print label button on inventory form calls query

here's i'm unsure of items don't need duplicate label printed...is there else can add button's code/macro?

suggestions? 

any , appreciated!

thanks

don't need todaysdate column in table.  if add column named isprinted of boolean (yes/no) data type table can print labels items value of column false, then, after user confirmation labels printed successfully, set value of column true.  code along these lines:

const message_text = "did labels print successfully?"
const consql = "update [yourinventorytable] set isprinted = true isprinted = false"

docmd.openreport "yourlabelreport", wherecondition:="isprinted = false"

if msgbox(message_text,vbyesno+vbquestion,"confirm") = vbyes then
    currentdb.execute consql, dbfailonerror
end if
