Add "and", "or" Bolean Capabilities To A Simple Search
Jul 9, 2005
Working in ColdFusion, the following works good with just one term criteria:
<cfquery ...
where
A.TITLE LIKE <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar" value="%#criteria#%">
OR A.SUBTITLE LIKE <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar" value="%#criteria#%">
OR A.ABSTRACT LIKE <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_longvarchar" value="%#criteria#%">
OR A.CONTENT LIKE <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_longvarchar" value="%#criteria#%">
...
Please advise the best approach so that multiple terms may be used.
Thank you very much.

Good afternoon! I have a report that looks just like a spreadsheet. I have names down the side and dates across the top. The grid contains the count of date for each name. These are the dates that an employee is scheduled to work. Is there a way to also document within this report (with "R" for requested off, or "A" for available), to note when they are available or have requested off? I'm attaching a zip of the report and the code that calculates the grid also. Thank you for your help...
KellyJo
This is the query I used:
PARAMETERS [Forms]![frmDates]![Date] DateTime;
TRANSFORM Count([Staffing Query].Title) AS CountOfTitle
SELECT [Staffing Query].ERName, [Staffing Query].Department, [Staffing Query].Shift, Count([Staffing Query].Department) AS [Total Of Department]
FROM [Staffing Query]
GROUP BY [Staffing Query].ERName, [Staffing Query].Department, [Staffing Query].Shift
PIVOT "d" & DateDiff("d",[Forms]![frmDates]!Date,[Date Scheduled]) In ("d0","d1","d2","d3","d4","d5","d6","d7","d8","d9","d10","d11","d12","d13","d14","d15","d16","d17","d18","d19","d20","d21","d22","d23","d24","d25","d26","d27");

Hi,
I am part of a team working on part of an ongoing project that requires a flexible and easy to update database from which to compile our data. The general format that we have, is that of a "Tree Diagram" (see sample attached). As you can see, this is where one branch has in turn several branches and this cascades downwards to some base values.
On the diagram you can see that I have used the example of "Costs In Football". Firstly the tree is branched into countries where football leagues exist (England, France etc...), each of these countries then has a number of leagues - I have only shown this for the English leagues. These leagues are all made up of teams, only following the Premiership league, you can see some of the teams in it (Arsenal, Chelsea...). Using the Liverpool team, the team is then made up of players such as Gerrard, Reina etc...
These players have a specific postion where they play (i.e. Goalkeeper, defence, midfield, attack) - this has been illustrated with only "Gerrard". The next set of branches examines the costs associated with each player (current value, weekly wage...)
The weekly wage is then examined in more detail by what components make it up and their respective costs. I have stopped the tree here and I am using this last line as the base values.
Now, what we wish to do, is to be able to calculate easily (and automatically) what costs are associated at each level of the tree diagram. i.e. "How much money is spent on wages in all the clubs in the Premiership league", or "Which country spends the most on Sponsorship Deals?"
The flexibility of the database must also be high. Each year the teams that make up each league are changed - we need to be able to make these changes to the database - and the automatically calculated values must change along with the changes.
Also, if a club buys a player - i.e. Liverpool (England) buy Beckham (Real Madrid, Spain) then the details for both Liverpool and consequently the Premiership league will have to change, along with the details for Real Madrid and the Spanish data.
In short, additions of data, changes of data and deletions of data must result in the database automatically changing the values involved in each step of the tree. i.e the change made in the Players branch must cascade up and down the branch so that the calculations at every level are recalculated.
Any help and feedback on this would be much appreciated,
Thanking you,
Matt.

Ok I am right now making a simple Vendor/Product database to create a line sheet for some sales folks. I have 3 tables: Vendors, Products, and an associate entity Vendors_Products to relate the two. I have a form currently that draws the Vendor Name (primary key) from the Vendor table and the Product Name from the associate entity. This allows me to create new vendors and select current product types from a drop down box. The problem is that the drop down box is too long and it is tiresome when 1 vendor has 10 product types.
Can anyone tell me how to resolve this? I thought it would be better to have option buttons and display all available products. Then you could just click all of the option buttons that apply to that Vendor and it would create the relationships...is this possible?

why the code below is not functioning properly. When I type in an acronym in the textbox, it keeps saying there is an error "Run-time error '3345': Unkown or invalid field reference 'ABO'." I do have ABO in the field.
The dysfunctional code:
Code:
Private Sub btnFind_Click()
If (TxtFind & vbNullString) = vbNullString Then Exit Sub
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Set rs = Me.RecordsetClone
rs.FindFirst "[Acronym] = " & TxtFind
[Code] .....
The red highlighted line is where the debugger leads me to. Something with identifying the field? I would like to enable the search procedure to search throughout the entire records rather than just a specific field. How may I write such a line or two?

I have a form that has a subform on it. The main form shows a category of furniture and has custom navigation buttons and a search text box for asset numbers and command button that runs the search. The subform shows the asset numbers associated with that furniture category, sometimes there is only one asset number, in other cases there could be 60. There is a scroll bar to scroll through the asset numbers when there are too many to see in the initial window.
The buttons all work as they should except when I search for an asset number that is part of a category that has too many asset numbers to show in the main window. When this happens the "previous" and "next" navigation buttons do not take you to the previous or next record. All of the other buttons on the form work though - you can go to the first, or the last record, and you can search for a new asset.This is the code for the search:
Code:
Private Sub cmdAssetSearch_Click()
Dim rs As Object
If IsNull(Me.TextAsset) Or Me.TextAsset = "" Then
MsgBox "Please type in an asset number to search for.", vbOKOnly
Me.TextAsset.SetFocus
[code]....
I've also attached a picture of what I mean when I say there are more asset numbers than what the window shows.

I currently have a database with a few search forms. I recently attempted to add a box on one of my search forms to search 3 cells of a record for a key word. What happens is when I go to search, say for P0442, it does not bring up all of the records that contain that keyword in the 3 cells I have outlined. If I step down the code in the OR boxes of the query, it seems to work better but then for some reason my other search criteria , (Tracking number etc) does not work. I will upload the database for reference. I am currently working on the Search(View Only) and that is where you will find the query to work on.

I have a search form that uses a query to show results of a search, but everytime I press search everything comes up even though I have entered search parameters, even though my search requeries every time and the search used to work before I added new records today. Also when I press the query alone on the navigation pane it asks me for the parameters and then it actually works but it won't when I use my form.

1. I created a form with some search-fields which are related to a query. Then I added a Subform in which I put some more Search criteria (So that I can easily hide and unhide those additional searchfields). It sounds strange but is necessary ;-). Now I related those searchfields in the subform to the same query. When I run that query a window pops up that I should put in a value in all those searchfields which are in the subform. But I told Access that it should display all rows, if there is no value in those searchfields. Just as I did it with the Searchcriteria in the Main form. Do I have to do something special, when I have a query which is related to two Forms?
2. I want a searchfield to search in three different columns. Usually the value will just be found in one of those columns. As the Table I search is very long and has many searchfields and multiple of those will relate to more than one column, is there an easy way to do it in VBA? As I did it by using the "or" field when designing a query, but this seems very slow and unstable.

I have a database that uses four forms and each form has it's own table and each form has it's own search button to find a specific record within that table. I would like to use one search button that will look at all four tables and bring up the correct record when the request number is entered. Can I link all the tables to perform this or is code required? Can someone send me in the right direction for how to do this? Give me an example of code if it's required?
Thanks for any help I can get.

So basically, what I have is a bunch of words in one memo field, for example:
dog cat cowboy tree flower
To search it, this is the code I have now.
' Check for LIKE Last Name
If Me.txtLastName > "" Then
varWhere = varWhere & "[LastName] LIKE """ & Me.txtLastName & "*" * " AND "
End If
The only problem is what I search for needs to be "in order", for example, if I search for dog, I'll get the table. But, if I seach for tree, I won't because tree was not place first. Can you please help me? Thanks a lot!

Ok, i have a search query as follows
SELECT Table1.*, Table1.[Winning Contractor]
FROM Table1
WHERE (((Table1.[Winning Contractor])=[Who was the winning bidder?]));
This works well except if the user doesn't captialize a letter or doesn't type in the full company name. Is there a way to change this search to a like search instead of an exact one?

I have built a custom search form in a MS Access 2010 database so that users can find specific records to edit. After entering the search criteria and hitting a Search button, another form opens up that shows the search results. This second form includes a command button for generating a report of the search results.
Right now, the custom search form and the search results form are both working properly, but the search results report is showing every record in the database instead of just the search results. This is true whether I access the report via the command button in the form or the navigation pane. I'm not sure if I need to correct my VBA code or the report's properties.

HI!
I'm trying to figure out, how to make seach form with one text field, that will accept OR statements. I have one table with fields name, category, and description.
Is there any chance to make search like this:
User will put "part of the string" OR "part of the string2".
Result will be the list of the records that include these parts of the strings in any of the given above fields (name,category,description)
I hope i'm clear enough
Thank You in Advance

Hi,
I have looked at some of the threads here and it is clear that many of you are working on a much higher level than me and with a high degree of familiarity with the programme.
I am hoping that someone here is able to give me some advice as I don't find the MS help files digestible.
The task I have is to join 2 databases and produce a table from which I can run a mailmerge.
I have managed to join the 2 databases and I used a customer ID as a common link. (my apologies if the terminology is incorrect)
I now have all the data I require in one table.
THE PROBLEMs I have multiple entries for some of my customers and would like to reduce this to single entries (which is understandable). Please tell me how to do this if you can, and keep it as simple as you can please.
In anticipation I thank you very much.
:-)

Not sure what the issue is here but i am trying to append a Job number from a main database into two connected databases.
The number is a sequential number i have created and the primary key.
It is an autonumber field(obviously). The format is J0000 and the numbers start from J0001
I am using two different append queries to append them into the external databases tables.
However (and here i think lies the problem) the fields i am inserting them into are text fields with the same format J0000.
When i view the numbers in these tables, they are displayed as J1 or J9. The 0's are missing.
Any ideas.
Thank you in advance

Hey guys, I'm just wondering how I could limit a field to using from 2 - 20 letters. If I placed the letter "a", I'd get an error saying how at least 2 letters must be there, and a maximum of 20. How would I do this?
Lastly, how can I make it so when I enter data into a form, I can click a button which adds it all into the table?
When I do it normally, it's automatically transferred into the table as I type it into the form.
This is incredibly simple I know, but I am a n00b at Access. ^_^
Thanks guys.

OK, I have a strange problem... This doesn't seem to work..... It did... then I made some changes.... Can someone clue me in on what I am doing wrong? A query, simply summing some values in fields... no biggy...... BUT...
The field
TotalHours: ([SundayHours]+[MondayHours]+[TuesdayHours]+[WednesdayHours]+[ThursdayHours]+[FridayHours]+[SaturdayHours])
So why isn't this working?
Can I use a simple VBA statement to sum these fields?
:confused:
