Altering Data Display
Mar 12, 2008
I tried to revive an old post in the "General" section with this question, but it doesn't look like many people are looking at it. I figured it wouldn't upset the posting gods too much if I posted it here, since the the question is concerning queries.
I'm starting out with an excel sheet that looks like this:
Company Name..........Employee
Jones Electric............Kyle Brown
Jones Electric............Chris Ford
Jones Electric............Matt Daniels
Is there a way for access to make it look like this?
Company Name..........Employee..........Employee 2..........Employee 3
Jones Electric............Kyle Brown........Chris Ford............Matt Daniels
Thanks a lot, guys. I'll be sure to link the old post to this one.

Let me start by saying I am very, very new to Access, but have been assigned a report to create.
I have the following textbox in my report:
=[Location]+(Chr(13) & Chr(10)) & [callnumber]+(Chr(13) & Chr(10)) & [Online Availability]+(Chr(13) & Chr(10)) & [PF Subject]
I'm using this format so that my 4 fields appear in a list and don't leave blank lines if the one of the fields happens to be empty.
The problem is that I need to alter or substitute some text.
First, in the location field, I can have several different entries, but if the entry is 'Circ', I don't want that text to display and I don't want a blank line either.
Secondly, in the online availability field, if there is any value in the field, I want whatever text that is to change to something like 'Online - Yes'. If there is no value in the field, nothing should display.
I think the use of the Iif function should work, but I can't seem to write it correctly. Help!!

I have a database containing a mixture of upper and lower case input. I can make upper case appear on the screen by using > in the format box in the property section for each field. This works great but the same old uncorrected stuff remains on the database. How can I get the database to store the corrected upper case data after I have entered it in lower case?

Hello, I use a database at work that I made. Unfortunatly, I did not add a field for numbering the items that a customer orders. When entering an order It is important to my customers to keep it in a certain order. how do I change it so it adds a numbering to all the past orders as well? I've been trying to think of a way for months and cannot do this on my own. Thank you to anyone who takes the time to help me out. If you have any questions I'll try to answer them the best I can.

I have a line chart built in Access. Is there anyway I can change the line colors like I can in Excel? The default fuschia, bright yellow, and bright blue are horrendous.

Hi
I'm trying to produce a database that will convert Ebay download files to a format more suitable for import into Sage Line 50. I have a table "Customers" that has all the customer information in it.
One of the fields is "Country", this lists the full name of the country the customer lives in. However, Sage requires countries to be listed as a two letter abbreviated identifier, GB, US etc.. I have another table "CountryCodes", with two fields, the countries full name and its abbreviated identifier. I need to be able to compare every "Country" field in the "Customers" table with with the "Country" field in the in the "CountryCode" table and change it's value accordingly. I also need the "Country" field to change to fixed value (ZZ) if the country is not found in the "CountryCodes" table.
Any help would be greatfully recieved.

Ok, so I have a form that I am using to apply certain parameters to a report. The form allows the user to specify one or more fields to sort by and then launches a Report with those statements in the Report's where clause using DoCmd.OpenReport. However, when certain fields are searched, I need to add information to the SELECT and FROM parts of my Report's query. I can't figure out how to do this with Access, if it is even possible. Otherwise, I will need to find a way around this.
Thanks for your help,
Alex

I have a form that allows a user to complete a stock take. I would like to stop other users from receiving or despatching stock while a stock take is in progress.
Is there a way I can lock a table, or stop users adding or altering records that match certain criteria. i.e. don't let users receive or despatch stock from with a locationID of 'A'.

I am new to MS Access. So I am making a database for an automobile warehouse. When a new car arrives at the warehouse, it is allocated a specific parking slot (using a combo box available on the 'New Arriving Car' form).
However, once a specific slot has been allotted, the end-user should not be able to allot the same parking slot to other arriving cars, until the original car has left the warehouse so that the parking slot becomes available once again. Currently, the parking slot combo box shows all parking slots whereas it is supposed to display only unoccupied parking slots. How can I enforce this? (Note that there is a separate form called 'Exiting Car', which is filled when a car is leaving the warehouse).
Fyi, each car is referred to by a unique 17 digit code - so this is the primary key. Also, there are 120 parking slots available in all, with the slot identifiers ranging from A1, A2...A12 to J1, J2..J12 (10 x 12 = 120).

My db has multiple linked tables. As time passes and work on a project continues data needs to be added to a separate table that is linked to the first table to be populated.
i.e., Initial design data is entered first, when drilling is complete more data is added to a linked table, when drilling is surveyed yet more data is added to the second table.
What I want to be able to do is to query for a particular set of existing design data, display this on a form and on the same line enable data entry to other fields from other tables which are linked to the existing design data.

Hi,
I am using a query to print information about customers and products on a report; the query is returning something like this:
Customer---------------------Products
cust1-------------------------------apple
cust1-------------------------------cereal
cust1-------------------------------salad
cust2-------------------------------photos
cust2-------------------------------bananas
However, my client is wanting all the info about each customer displayed in list like this:
Customer----------------------Products
cust1--------------------------------apple------------------cereal-------------------salad
cust2--------------------------------photos-----------------bananas
I can change my tables to reflect product1...productn, but that will break database rules.
Any suggestions please?
Regards,
B

Hello. I am quite new to Access and even newer to this forum. So please be gentle...
My question is quite simple i think. I want to display one particular record.
I have a keyboard wedge barcode scanner.. so basically a quicker and easier way to input digits or letters into a field. I also have lots and lots of CD's DVD's which i want to track and list the contents of, by simply entering the cd/dvd's barcode number istead of having to insert into my pc and browse manually.. if possible searching within results would be good too.~
think of it as a supermarket style.. input number - output entire contents... there could be hundreds or even thousands of programs or music titles,images, videos or documents.. along with any associated data, (where it is stored, who borrowed it last etc)
Can anbody outline the basics for me to implement this? remember i am quite new to Access and databases in general.
Thanks in advance, and keep up the good work on/in this forum. :)

I have a query which is grouped by year, facility name, and billing type and needs to display several columns of aggregate values for each of these, e.g. count of cases, sum of cases reviewed, average length of stay, etc. It would look like this:
2003 ABC Hospital Billed DRG 123 22 6.5
2003 ABC Hospital Billed Per Diem 23 0 4.2
2003 DEF Hospital Billed DRG 456 120 12.3
2003 DEF Hospital Billed Per Diem 56 10 2.1
However, if a facility does not have any Per Diem billings for example, how can I generate a row for it anyway? I cannot use a crosstab since I have multiple different values to display. I tried the following union query:
SELECT YR,FacilityName,BilledDRG,NumberOfCases,AverageLen gthOfStay,CasesReviewed,CasesDenied,AvgOflos,[Billing Eligibility] FROM qryDistHIVCasesStatsDAC
UNION SELECT YR,FacilityName,BilledDRG,0,0,0,0,0,null FROM qryDistHIVCasesStatsDACDRG
UNION SELECT YR,FacilityName,BilledDRG,0,0,0,0,0,null FROM qryDistHIVCasesStatsDACPD
ORDER BY YR, FacilityName, BilledDRG;
where qryDistHIVCasesStatsDAC
is the original query,
qryDistHIVCasesStatsDACDRG shows the year, facility name, and "Billed DRG"
qryDistHIVCasesStatsDACPD shows the year, facility name, and "Billed Per Diem"
but then I would get e.g.
2003 ABC Hospital Billed DRG 123 22 6.5
2003 ABC Hospital Billed DRG 0 0 0
2003 ABC Hospital Billed Per Diem 23 0 4.2
2003 ABC Hospital Billed Per Diem 0 0 0
2003 GHI Hospital Billed DRG 456 120 12.3
2003 GHI Hospital Billed DRG 0 0 0
2003 GHI Hospital Billed Per Diem 0 0 0
what I want is:
2003 ABC Hospital Billed DRG 123 22 6.5
2003 ABC Hospital Billed Per Diem 23 0 4.2
2003 GHI Hospital Billed DRG 456 120 12.3
2003 GHI Hospital Billed Per Diem 0 0 0
In other words, for each year, each facility should have a row "Billed DRG" and a row "Billed Per Diem" and only one row of each.
Thanks for your assistance. I hope I have explained this adequately.

Hopefully a simple one that is eluding me at the moment.
I have a control on a sub form that refers to a value on another subform. When I enter data in the controls subform it will display the correct answer. However, when I close the form and return to it later the control is blank and will only display the answer if I go into another field on the form and make a modification to the data. It seems that the control will only calculate on an after update event but I need it to be visible at all times when the form is open. I have tried requery on open and on load with no effect.
Any thoughts out there?
Thanks

I am fairly new to VBA, having done no fromal training. I have taught myself quite alot and I am pleased with how i am progressing. I am stuck though!
I am building a booking system for a friends business, all free of charge as I believe it's a good project to get experience in VBA.
The booking form has a 'Date' Combo box, 'Name' Combo box and a 'Time' Combo box. The 'Time' Combo box displays times in 10min intervals from 0600 to 2100, and this data is stored in a table called 'tblTimes'. I need to build a query that checks the main table 'tblBooking', for a selected date chosen in the 'Date' Combo box by the user, to see what times have been used up and thus only display, in the 'Time' Combo box, those times not yet used for that particular datedate.
I am sure, to some of you experts out there, that this is quite a simple query. I looki forward to your input.

I have a table that contains 4 columns: index (w/ auto generating number), timestamp, current user, and notes. The notes column is a Memo data type and is used to capture free-form notes typed into a text box.
I would like to display all notes typed by a specific user and do it in a single control, preferably a text box. This way someone can look back over time and review all the notes they typed / added to this table. Is it possible to display multiple rows from a table in a single text box or do I need to use a list box?

I have a macro in the On No Data event of a report that displays a message when the item number a user requests does not exist in the table being queried.
Now I need to get the same functionality in a form. The form is based on a parameter query with only one criteria [Please enter item number]. The form opens in Edit mode when a valid item number is entered.
I see that there is no On No Data event for either forms or queries, so I'm stumped on how to proceed.
Any and all assistance is appreciated.

I have this pivot chart (please see attached screenshot) that I was hoping to use to display results of a survey that was conducted by our nonprofit organization. I have it filtering by a few demographics (age, gender, parental status), and then the results of a few other questions below it. My problem is that I'm not sure what results I'm looking at -- whether they're totals of all the responses, just the "true" responses, or...?
The survey asked questions similar to what you see in the field list. Each question is a column header in my table. Then the row headers are each respondent. The choices for answers were "true", "false", or nothing. So in all the cells, i entered t, f, or nothing accordingly.
I'm not sure if I'm not using the pivot chart correctly, or if I didn't design the table for the data correctly.

Hi, does anyone know how to create a query/or form that promts the user with a message box that says "enter table name", from this if the user types "A" then table A will be opened for the user to add data into or if the user types in "B" then table B will be opened for the user to add data into. Ideally I would like a form that opens (either form a or form b) that allows the user to enter the details into the corresponding table (a or b)
Tables A & B are both emty to start of with. The field names in both tables are: user_id, firstname, lastname, date
Please help?

Hi,
I have two tables of data, one is a customer information (membersdata) table and the other is information recived from a bank (bankdata). Each customer has a 'bank description' field in its membersdata table and the bankdata table also has field 'bank description'.
The query I have at the moment gives me back the data that both tables have a matching 'bank description'. The query I want is one that will give me the data from the bankdata table that does not exist in the membersdata table.
So simply put the query I want is the opposite of the one I made with the wizard.
I hope that makes sense?
Any help would be fantastic!
Cheers

I have a database which contains details of groups of students. Groups are assigned tutor(s) using a link table between the Groups table and a Tutors Table.
I want to create a query which shows each group with their tutor. If I add the three tables to the query I can correctly generate a list of groups with their tutors, but any group which hasn't got a tutor (i.e. where the Tutor column would be blank) doesn't feature in the results.
I want all groups to be listed, even if they haven't got a tutor. Is this possible? How?!
Thanks in advance,
Gary

Hi all,
Wondering if anyone can help here? I am currently working on a form that needs to display data from 3 unique queries - a crosstab query and two standard queries (one has line by line data and another summary data) that do not have a common link.
What is the best way to do this? Would it be possible to display the results of each of these queries in a single form by creating 2 subforms from 2 of the queries and placing them in the form of the 3rd?
Any suggestions on how to combine the data from the 3 queries into the 1 form would be much appreciated!!!
Thanks in advance.
G.
