Automatically Removing Lines When A Field Has No Value

Dec 28, 2011

I'm using a query to concatenate data from a table into a specific HTML format. I would like, however, to find a way to remove lines of HTML when there is no data in a specific field.

Example:

If I were to create a list of available colors of a shirt like so:

<ul>
<li>[Color1]</li>
<li>[Color2]</li>
<li>[Color3]</li>
<li>[Color4]</li>
</ul>

but if there were only 3 available colors, I'd end up with this:

<ul>
<li>[Color1]</li>
<li>[Color2]</li>
<li>[Color3]</li>
<li></li>
</ul>

I need to find a way to get rid of that last vacant tag. I image there's some kind of code I could write (if x is null, clear line17, or something like that) but I wouldn't even know where to start with that.

Removing A @ From The End Of A Field

Mar 15, 2007

Hi there I am extracting user names from e-mails in an access database.

I built the following command to do it

Left([E-Mails by Source - Test]![E-Mail],InStrRev([E-Mails by Source - Test]![E-Mail],"@"))

where [E-Mail] is the e-mail address.

It works great. But I still get the @ and the end of the name.

Any idea how I can get rid of it (other than using find and replace)?

Thanks for your help.

Queries :: Multiple Lines In A Field?

Jan 8, 2014

I've exported some data which has 3-4 address line within the same field which is very odd.

The row has all the usual data, but when I look at the data in datasheet view the adresss line 1 shows only but when I click into the field and press down, more address info comes up. Is there any way to have this on one row within the field rather than multiple.

A bit like in Excel when you Alt+Tab in a cell it drops down but is the same cell, well this exactly like that in Access 2003.

Removing A Value From A Text Field

Dec 7, 2006

I have a form with a unbound text field which when a user inserts text and then removes the focus from that field, the text gets inserted into a memo field. By using:

Me.[NOTES] = Now() & " " & Environ("UserName") & " - " & Text27365 & vbCrLf & Me.[NOTES]

However, I have noticed an issue with this, in respect that when the user enter text then moves to the next record, the previous entered text is still there, This could then cause this old text to get inserted into the wrong record. How can I set this field to blank once it I have moved to the next record or closed the form?

Queries :: Sums Up All Previous Lines In A Field

Feb 9, 2014

I have a query that displays the difference between the number of scanned and processed invoices for each date (invoices scanned minus processed). Now I would like to make a query that for each date based on this shows the total backlog accumulated.

Example table:

The first column contains the date, and the second number of invoices scanned minus invoices processed.

2014-01-02 53
2014-01-03 -15
2014-01-04 24

Would it be possible somehow to make a query that for each lines shows the complete sum of all previous lines?

Based on the above data the result should be:

2014-01-02 53
2014-01-03 38
2014-01-04 62

Or would I have to write some VBA code to create some kind of temp table?

Forms :: How To Prevent Multiple Lines In Field

Apr 13, 2015

Ive had a recurring problem with one of my databases

ive got a form with a subtable on it, the subtable is very important as much of the DB's data is entered in there.

every once and a while one of the users will be doing data entry and on a certain field (a short text field if that makes any difference) theyll push enter instead of tab, to move on to the next field, enter creates a new line instead of moving to the next field, when a new line is created the user will either assume the field is blank and retype the data or ignore it entirely and move on

the trouble is one of my queries completely fails to work when there are multiple lines in this field (comes with a data type mismatch error)

is there a way to prevent the field from being able to contain multiple lines (like a property setting or some VB code?)

Ordering Lines Within A Memo Field By Date/time

Dec 7, 2006

I have a memo field which records the events that happen on a form. So for example when a user changes the assignment from one user to the next, a row is written to the memo field indicating date, time, windows logon and then a brief description

Basically I end up with :

07/12/06 11:16:34 kleaves : Assigned user changed from Joe Bloggs to John Doe

At present every new row is added to the memo field at the end, so the most recent action is at the bottom.

How can I sort this so that most recent is at the top.

Removing Address Field When It Contains No Data In A Report

Mar 5, 2015

I created a report to print out a letter that will be sent to all of our clients. In the address section of the letter there are two field for adresses...Address1 and Address2. One is for a street address and the other for a PO Box. Not all of the clients have a PO Box and for these, I do not want the blank line to show in the address. For example:

John Doe
3 Main Street

Franklin, MA 02038

The field and section of the report are set to "can shrink" and "can grow", but it still gives me a blank line in the address for the clients that do not have a PO Box. What else do I have to do?

Removing Parentheses And Its Contents From Access Table Field

Jun 18, 2014

I am very new to access less than 1 week since i started trying to build an horse racing database, i am trying to link data from 2 different sources via the horses name however one source displays this with the horses country of origin in parenthesis foe example FRANKEL(GB) and the other source displays the name as just FRANKEL, to be honest i haven't yet tried the link but guess it will fail.

I am therefore looking to get rid of the parentheses and their contents from an access table field and create another field without them.

In Excel i use the formula B1:

=TRIM(REPLACE(A1,FIND("(",A1&"("),FIND(")",A1&")")-(FIND("(",A1&"(")-1),"")) and that works fine.

I guessed the solution for Access would be newname:

TRIM(REPLACE([frhorse.NAME],FIND("(",[frhorse.NAME]&"("),FIND(")",[frhorse.NAME]&")")-(FIND("(",[frhorse.NAME]&"(")-1),""))

But this doesn't work as in returns undefined function "FIND" in expression error.

Queries :: Date Range Query - Return Lines Where Field Is Blank In Table

Aug 15, 2013

I have a single table with customer information, one of the fields is a date field "LastContacted".

I'm creating a search form with 2 date fields (txtDate1 & txtDate2) to search a date range of the LastContacted field, and I need to write this into the query that the search form uses.

I have written this using Nz so that it can still return results if the search boxes are left blank:

Between Nz([Forms]![frm_AdvancedSearch]![txtDate1],#01/01/1989#) And Nz([Forms]![frm_AdvancedSearch]![txtDate2],#01/01/2999#)

This seems to work and it returns lines from the table where there is a date entered. However some of the fields in the table have no entry in the LastContacted field. How to code this query so that it also returns lines where the LastContacted field is blank in the table?

I have tried:

like "*" & (Between Nz([Forms]![frm_AdvancedSearch]![txtDate1],#01/01/1989#) And Nz([Forms]![frm_AdvancedSearch]![txtDate2],#01/01/2999#)) & "*"

but this returns errors when I try to run it.

I'm using Access 2010.

Automatically Populate A Date Field Based On Value Entered In Another Field

Nov 10, 2005

I need to create a New Form control for this situation:

If I enter a date into a field and the choice for another field is equal to a certain value. How can I get the date I entered to be automatically populated into another date field.

For example:

If I enter 11/10/2005 in a date field and I choose either "BN", "BA", or "BT" in a text field, I need that date of 11/10/2005 to be automatically populated in another date field on the same form.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Tables :: Automatically Fill Field Based On Keywords In Another Field

Dec 3, 2013

I'm trying to complete a database.

It is to manage details of pupils with additional support needs, and plan for the extra arrangements the school will provide for assessments.

It has 2 Tables

tbl-PupilDetails
-ScottishCandidateNumber primary key (Unique number which identifies pupils to the exams board)
-Forename
-Surname
-DOB
-YearGroup
-Class
-NatureOfNeed (memo)
-EvidenceOfNeed (memo)

tbl-SubjectLevelArrangement
-ID Primary key, Autonumber
-Pupil foreign key to tblPupilDetails
-Subject
-Faculty
-Level
-Arrangement

I currently use forms for adding new pupils, and updating pupil subjects/arrangements/levels.

I also have forms to search for specific pupils, and to create lists for faculty heads showing which pupils are taking subjects within their faculty and the arrangements we expect to provide.

I use the forms to run queries, which can then output to reports for printing.

Where I am currently having an issue is the faculty field in the tbl-SubjectLevelArrangements. (If I didn't have to report to faculty heads I would just leave it out, but management will insist.)

Currently I have a form with dropdowns for adding subject, faculty, level and arrangement manually. This is acceptable for the subject, level and arrangement because they are completely interchangeable and dynamic throughout the academic year as pupils may drop down a level, or change the type of arrangement they require.

However as faculties are inextricably linked to subjects, I want to remove the possibility of human error. i.e. when a user (me) chooses either geography, history, or RE, then the faculty will always be Humanities, likewise if the user chooses French, German, or Spanish, then the faculty can only be Modern Languages etc.

I'm convinced there must be a very simple way to ensure that the faculty field prefills based on the limited keywords available in the subject field, but I just cannot figure it out.

Automatically Set A Field Based On A Field In Another Table

Aug 12, 2005

I have two tables, each has a "status" for a project. In the first table there is only one instance of each project name, in the second table there may be more than 1, will always have the same name but may have a different "Status" (field).

I need the Status field of the first table to be set to "Assigned" if ANY of the records in the second table pertaining to that project are set to "Assigned".

Can I do this with my table or will I need to do it with a query/form combination?

Thanks,

How To Make A Field Automatically Receive Same Value From Another Field

Apr 22, 2014

In Access 2013, in a table named DOCSDETAIL or form, I want the UTENTE (meaning user) field (Currency type €) automatically receives the same amount of PVP field (Currency type €) but can be modified as needed.

Example: Registration of documents in which the amount paid by the USER has two possibilities;

1. DifferS from PVP (Public Sale Price)
2. Equal the PVP

Looks like it might be used

= "Update your_table set your_field_new = your_field_old"

= "Update DOCSDETALHE set UTENTE = PVP"

But do not know where to put and if the syntax is correct!

Copying A Field Automatically From Another Field

Apr 14, 2005

Hi

Forgive me - but i am new to db.

I have an employee field in my purchase orders from and when I do stock transactions - i have an employee field against each item in the purchase order. I would like to just copy the employee field from the purchase order form automatically next to each product listed instead of having to keep typing the same thing.

the reason i am doing this is because when people come to take stock out - i would like to see there name against each item in the products from so people can not not take more than they ordered.

thanks in advance.

Automatically Fill In Field

Aug 12, 2005

Hi everybody,

I have a table that has 4 columns as shown below:

(*It really isn't code, I just couldn't figure out how else to keep the columns in place!)



-------------------------------------------------------------------
Store Name Invoice Number Customer Name Customer Address
Store1 1 Bob PO Box 55
Store1 2 Joe PO Box 789
Store2 3 Chris PO Box 1254
-------------------------------------------------------------------
On my input form, for entering a new invoice, when you select the customer name, I want the form to automatically fill in the correct address in the "Customer Address" field.

I think there has to be a way to do this because there is only ever going to be one address for every customer. And the same customers will be comming back very often.

Does anyone have any ideas?

-Chris
