I have a database... 1 table...40 fields..
I currently have a query set up as a basic a LIKE search for each field and I have to do 40 each time..
Is there a way of being able to do 1 query and have it search all 40 fields?
So my field headings are
Part No

Any ideas?

i have table on sharepoint which i can not link to my access database so i have to import it. table on sharepoint is same as in access and i need table from sharepoint updated with my access. unfortunately this table has multi valued fields. when i import table from sharepoint it, the table gets renamed so if the original table is tablea the imported table becomes tablea1. im trying to update my table in access but then i get error "An INSERT INTO query cannot contain multi-valued field." if i remove multi valued fields from query, the query is working fine. how i can get the values into my table in access?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have spent the last couple of days trying to figure out how to make this work.
I have three tables.
tblIntakeMain
[IntakeMainID]
tblIncidentDetails
[IncidentdeatailsID]
tblPersonnel
[PersonnelID]
On the main form I use subforms to link tblIncidentDetails and tblPersonnel to tblIntakeMain. Both subforms can, and do, have many entries. This all works fine. What is not working is the search form I am using.
I am using Gromits most excellent Search Form. The problem is when I create a query, qSearch, to bring together the three tables I get a multiple records which makes the searches very confusing and near useless. Is there anyway around this? Is there something I am missing? Is there another search method I could use that would work in a similar way as Gromits? Please help before the Prozac runs out and I lose my mind--what little it left.
Hi, I new to access and I just started using it for a group project in one of my classes. We are supposed to make a database for our "business" so we decided to pick a small independent movie theater.
After some trouble we finally figured out that we had to link the tables with some relation ships. Our basic tables are:
"Distributors" -relationship-distribributorID-"Ticket Sales"
"Employee Information" -relationship-TitleID- "Position Information"
"Inventory"
So I made a query that would get the revenue for each product sold in the inventory by multiplying the price and the amount sold.
I was wondering if it would be possible to create a query that would total all the revenue and all the ticket sales and divide them to create a per-person spending ratio.
Access 2010. I've had to learn it at work because our DBA was let go and I was the only one willing to give it a go. Read a book or two and picked up some stuff on the internet.
Here's my problem:
I have a simple table -Employee with 4 fields. FirstName, LastName, Office and JobTitle. I have form called Form1 that has 3 control fields cboJobTitle (a combo box that is populated by a query that finds all the unique values of that field in the Employee table), cboOffice (same as above) and txtName (a text box to allow user input) that are used as the criteria for a multi-field query triggered by a button at the bottom of the form. The idea being that you could do a search using this form to find all the employees in one office or all the accountants in one office, or any other combination.
The main search query has the following criteria for each field -
Like [forms]![Form1]![cboOffice] & "*"
Like [forms]![Form1]![cboJobTitle] & "*"
Like [forms]![Form1]![txtName] & "*"
It works great...until I enter a record where one of those fields may be null, such as if I leave the JobTitle blank.
If I have two employees in an office in one city and then do a search for all the employees in that office, it only returns one record and ignores the one that has the null value in the JobTitle field.
On [Form1] I have a Multi-Select Listbox[List1] which shows Job Numbers [WBS] (The job numbers displaying are a result of a separate query filtered by the Fiscal Year combobox). When I click [CMD1] I want [Query1] results to only be selected [WBS] from the form.What is the best way to code this? I'm a beginner when it comes to VBA.
View 12 Replies View RelatedI'm really new to Access and using Office 2007. Comfortable with SQL but have no idea about VBA. How do I get the form to query multi-selections? For example if you download the attachment here and refer to "Form1", let's say the user multiselects BK and McD's for Vendor, burger for Food, and Coke for Beverage. It should be spitting out 3 records but instead spat out an empty table. I tied my last query "query2" with "Form1" to make them work hand-in-hand which filters the master table "Fast Food". Would I need to tweak the syntax seen in the "Criteria:" cells of "query2" to make them read in multiselections?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have two tables containing (let's say for simplicity) questions and attachments (pictures). I am trying to perform a union query to join all the questions and pictures into one report, but it won't let me union the attachment because 'the multi-valued field 'TableA.Pictures' cannot be used in a union query'.
I have searched and searched for a solution (and got kind of close) but i still can't get it to work. The best I can do is union everything like below, which gives all the questions as desired, but says #Error in the pictures column:
SELECT TableA.*
FROM TableA
Union
SELECT TableB.*
FROM TableB;
(Note tables A and B have the same structure, several yes/no and open text questions as well as one attachment field. )
I am attempting to filter records using a multi-select listbox, but all records are being returned. Here is my code.
Private Sub btnKeyboxCount_Click()
Dim varItem As Variant
Dim strCriteria As String
Dim strSQL As String
[Code] ....
I've been using the following code successfully in Access 2003 & now I need to migrate to Access 2010. The purpose of the code is to use the items that the user selects in the list box to build the criteria of a query. Access 2010 keeps giving me a syntax error when I try to run the query & I don't know why:
My code is:
On Error GoTo Err_Command151_Click
' Declare variables
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim qdf As DAO.QueryDef
Dim varItem As Variant
Dim strCriteria As String
Dim strSQL As String
[Code] .....
The syntax error I get in Access 2010 is:
Syntax Error in query expression 'SELECT * FROM
qryContractListSummarybyDateContract3TYPEBREAK WHERE
qryContractListSummarybyDateContract3TYPEBREAK.Rep ortableName IN('Adbri
Masonry NSW');'
I am trying to set a multiple field index on a table. I would like to use 3 fields. One is a text field, the other two are date fields. The text field and one date field will always have a value. The other date field can either have a value or no value. The index will work if I only use the text field and date field that always have values. If I try to add the third field, it will not find a duplicate record. Can I not include a field that may have a null value?

I have created a multivalue field based off of URL... I am getting my values from a different table from within the database. My issue is that I tried to create a default value for the lookup field but it made another selection within the lookup field.
Example:
Reference Table Values are:
Name 1
Name 2
Field referencing table with my defined default value:
Name 1
Name 2
Name 1
Hi everyone. Apologies if this has come up before, but the search terms I've tried here and on google keep turning up the wrong information.
At work I manage a large database with many tables. It stores data for participants in a research study. Each table stores the data for a different test, so one participant may have multiple records. Primary keys for these tables are defined by a combination of the participant and date of test fields. (Everything is dependent upon a table that stores the static info for participants, so the database is normalized.)
I want to be able to make a table that lists target participants and dates, and then create a query that looks at this table and pulls all the available data from various tables for those individuals that was recorded within one year of the target dates.
I've successfully made queries that meet these criteria while pulling data from only one table. The problem I'm having is that when I try to pull from multiple tables, each with it's own date field that needs to be used as a criterion, I end up excluding almost all the data, because most of the target participants do not have all the requested data within the target dates.
I've tried being inclusive with my criteria (using ORs), but then I end up with tons of data that I don't want and I need to filter through it, which defeats the purpose of the query.
Any advice on handling this issue, or do I basically just need to create a separate query for each table?
I'm sorry if this is too vague, but it's illegal for me to upload any of my own dataset. I could probably come up with an example if it's helpful, though.
Thanks!
I have 4 fields in a table that when combined must be unique.I know you can setup multiple fields as a combined key, but I don't really need these to be the key (I will auto number a unique key). I just need to make sure the same combination of codes is not entered twice.Do I set this up as multiple key fields anyway?
View 1 Replies View RelatedEvery time I mentioned multi-value fields I get the same input, don't use them. So I am trying to replace this field with a junction table. This will have multiple records for each record in the original subform. The only problem is that the original subform is set to continuous view and now I get the error that "you can't view a form as a continuous form if it contains a subform".
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have got a db and that has 10+ ref tables, and i need to show everything from those tables in one, and these tables includes Attachment field. I have tried union but did not work.
How can i achieve this?
I created a field in access 2010 called OptionalSubjects . It is a multi value field where a user can select multiple values from the combo box, the selection are ID from a query. Now i want to limit the user to only two selection from the multiple values available and not less than two. So the field is either NULL or two selection only. How can I achieve this in validation rule or vba.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI know many are opposed to multi-valued fields, but in this case it works out nicely for my purposes.. I pick a couple things from a table to put into a field in a separate table via multi-value lookup, and when I hit ok, nothing happens. Literally. Tried the enter button, tried a mess of different keyboard mashing, and nothing. URL....
Row Source:
SELECT [Cage Codes].[CageCode], [Cage Codes].[Company], [Cage Codes].[Division] FROM [Cage Codes] ORDER BY [CageCode];
I'm having a big struggle with adding a multi-value lookup field to a table. I need to provide a long pick list of items (from a source table) but these items must not be output (in forms or reports) in alphabetical order, they need to remain in the order that they are in the source table.
Access wants to alphabetize the output even if a I add a number field to the source table and sort by that.
Is there any way I can persuade access to just give the selected items back in the same order as in the source table ?
Hi
If I want several users to access a database from their network pc's, should I place the access database .mdb file on the server and set the Sharing properties, then install the access application on each of their stations.
They need to each be able to use the database when they need to and read or add data, reports etc.
I am using access 2003.
Thanks

Hi guys,
I'm having some issues with a database that I have created. All this time only one user would be in the database. But now I have 2 to 3 people at a time in the database. I get an error and its not letting the users put any information in.
I have it split into a FE and BE. I have it set to share. Any thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks a lot!
Morning all,
Quick question... I figured out how to make all the searching items work... individually. The problem is is that I want to be able to search with two fields at a time. For example, say i have mo, date, job, pay and i want to seach for the MO and JOB and query the results accordingly. I can't get it to do that. Would I have to make a large If statement? I'm not entirely sure. Also now my problem is that it won't execute my first if statement or I should say it ignores it all togeather. I know it executes the code in the order it is written. If someone could shed some light I would be much apprecative. As always here is the code and attached is the program. What I'm working on is in the query table.
I also would like to be able for it to say if the fields MO and JOB do not comeup witha result for a messege to display there is no result. Or if the field is null not to do anything. I tried doing that in some of my code to no success perhaps I did somthing wrong.
Have a great day!

Hi.
I am using Access 97.
I have a problem with multi-conditional field showing or not.
Specifically:
I have 2 fields which can either be null, 0, or have a numeric value. These need to stay invisible to staff.
There are 2 other fields, also invisble in their properties setting, which need to become visible if both of the previous fields do not conain a value greater than or equal to 1.
Because these 4 fields are invisible by default, I put the following code in the settings for the 1st visible field in the form. I also tried it with when the form opens.
But it doesn't work or I get debug problems.
If (TOTAL___WAGE_RECORDS_E = 0) And (TOTAL___WAGE_RECORDS_E Is Null) And (TOTAL___WAGE_RECORDS_E_OS = 0) And (TOTAL___WAGE_RECORDS_E_OS Is Null) Then
Me!EMP_QUART_AFTER_EXIT_QUART.Visible = True
Me!EMP_QUART_AFTER_EXIT_QUART.Dropdown
End If
Please help.
Thanks!

(I know I posted this question before, but I fear it may have gotten lost in a thread so I am starting a new one)
I have created a multi-field pkey with the ModelDescription and VersionNumber fields. I did it the way that didn't require code as I could not find any online and am not versed enough in VB to do it on my own. I just highlighted both the fields and pressed the "Key" button.
My question is linking the tables. Should I just join them via the ModelDescription field? It won't let me join on both fields. Is it going to matter which field (ModelDescription vs. VersionNumber) I use to join the tables? I've never run into the need to have a multi-field pkey before.
