Breaking Down A Field Into Multiple Fields
Dec 19, 2007
I am attempting to create a report that breaks down a field of 'ClaimID' numbers into groups of x. In the sample report below x = 12 and the report will apportion the first 12 'ClaimID's to the first page and textboxes with extra large fonts will signify the start and end of 'ClaimID' numbers for that page. These sheets are used for sorting and pulling guides at our local Xmas project and x will vary depending on the size of the facility we're using.
http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d186/HoodRiverDude/SortReport.gif
I believe I can attain my goal if I were able to create a query which broke down the field 'ClaimID' into multiple fields based on x. The sample below represents this breakdown creating multiple records with x, 4 and 5, amount of fields.
http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d186/HoodRiverDude/SortReport2.gif
Does anyone know how I can create this query, or perhaps suggest another way to create this report using the existing 'ClaimID' data.
Thanks in advance,
Aldo

Hi All,
I have a field with a bunch of records. All is formatted the following:
CAN-2007-US-00001
CAN-2007-US-00002
CAN-2007-US-00003
CAN-2008-US-00001
CAN-2008-US-00002
CAN-2008-US-00003
and so on and so forth. Is there a way Acess can break the fields out? I want 1 field with CAN, 1 field with the year, 1 field with US, and 1 field with the number (4 different fields broken by the hyphen).
I can do text to column in excel before I import, but just wondering if it can be done in Access. Thanks in advance, guys...

Hi All
Been handed a contacts database, one field of the DB includes all the industry sectors associated with the customer, with multiple industry references separated only by a comma within the field (e.g. Insurance-Life,Insurance-Broking,Insurance-Motor,Insurance-Pensions,Insurance-Home,Insurance-Health) – I want to split this one field into multiple fields using the comma as the break point (this is something that’s relative easy to do in Excel with the ‘Text to Columns’ tool – but unfortunately it can’t take the 130,000 odd records of the databasel)
Can any one recommend an expression or method that will see the 6 industry references split into 6 separate fields ?
Thanks
Jim

Hello All,
I am trying to figure out the best was to combine fields from multiple rows into one row & field.
Example: I have a table that contains footnotes and products. With a simple query I would get the following 3 rows:
Product........................................... .......Footnote
V.I. Capital Appreciation Fund.................3
V.I. Capital Appreciation Fund.................5
V.I. Capital Appreciation Fund.................1
What I want is one row and the 3 footnotes combines into one field:
Product........................................... .......Footnote
V.I. Capital Appreciation Fund.................3, 5 ,1
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Please be kind, i have little VB Knowledge, and wish to expand my learning on this topic.
I have a form that updates information on one table, and has a subform displaying info from another table.
the subform is filtered, and only shows data from what is specified from the filter of the main form.
If I update information on the main form for instance,
field 1, (the data on the subform has the same data so there is the relation), how do i update the subform by only updating the mainform? can this be done through some VB or something?
if you folks out there can give a Smidget of info on which VB codes i can use i can pretty much figure it out.
like Docmd.write something?

I have a table which has each claim as a single record. A client wishes us to provide the data in a format that lists the each procedure on its own line. I have attached a highlevel example of what the data currently looks like and what the query results should look like.So I need to create a query that would repeat the Claim Number and place all the Procedure fields into one field.

I am designing an update query for a specific field in my table
There are 3 fields: PROVIDER_GROUP, MEDI_CAL_IND, MEMBER_LOW_CAT
I want to update the value of "Y" in the MEDI_CAL_IND field to "N" if:
the medi_cal_ind value is "Y" AND the PROVIDER_GROUP is "Medicare_Part_D"
OR
the medi-cal_ind value is "Y" AND the MEMBER_LOW_CAT is "Commercial"
A screenshot of the table is attached.

I promise I have searched, but I hav spent 10 minutes reading through posts that are unrelated...
What is the code to have multiple fields updaterd based on what is input into a field?
---
Example:
A ZIP Code Field, which updates City & State on the form when entered. (I have a table that has over 39,000 ZIPs w/ City & State already there)
---
I have several applications for this, but if someone could explain this use to me, I will be able to figure it out.
Thanks a million!!!

We have a form, which has a field linked to a "Recipients" table through a lookup. The field is bound to the recipient's name, but the lookup displays additional columns for user to identify the correct recipient in the case of duplicate names.
The "Payment" table's Recipient field only displays the recipient's name. So where duplicates occur, it's impossible to know which recipient is the correct one associated to a payment.
I would like to add an additional field to the "Payment" table called "RecipientIDNo". I need a way to auto-populate this field, based on the already existing Recipient field. Is this possible?
Why I just don't modify the recipient field on our payment form to be bound to the user ID number, there are two reasons.
(1) The field is linked to too many other reports and queries at this point. I believe it could cause an enormous amount of work to modify.
(2) the form likes to display whatever it is bound to. There may be a workaround for this, but I'm not aware of it and don't want the form displaying a number instead of a recipient name.

I wrote a database several years ago and recently pulled it out to give to a friend. The problem is, back then (not knowing better) I set the Employee table up with as a single field "NAME". Now, in order to make it effective, I need the Employee's name in four (4) parts (First, Middle, Last, Suffix).
I have several queries based on the "NAME" field and and would like to avoid changing all of them. I have a simple form "frmUpdateEmployees" that populates the Employee table and Name field. I was hoping to change the form and/or add a query that would be easier and more simple.
Table: Employee
Field: Name
Form: frmUpdateEmployees
Queries: 16 that depend on the table and field above.

I am trying to create a validation rule whereby If a box is checked it makes sure that before saving and moving to the next form several, though not all fields are valid.
Ive tried many variations of:
([x] Is Not Null) OR ([Y] is Null) And ([x] Is Not Null) OR ([Y] is Null] etc etc for the fields I need covered.
Either the rule doesnt work at all or else all data input is invalid!

In 2002, I set up a database with Access 97 which included a table with a memo field. Through the years, the database has moved from Windows XP and Access 97 to Windows 7 and Access 2007.
Recently, the memo data has been difficult to edit (the display will move away from the cursor, or a new record will be inserted).
It appears to be logically straightforward to convert the memo data into multiple text fields as the memo field can be parsed for dates of entry.

Let's say I have a table called "Courses" which among other things has "Completed"(Yes/No) and "Category"(Text).
Now, there also another table "Progress" which has similar columns.
I want Progress.Completed to reflect if all courses of the specified category have been completed.
How would I do that? I'm new to access ...

I have created a combo box search for my form based on three categories, 'Student Name', 'Nationality', 'Age' using the wizard. When I click on my combo box in form view, I see 'Alex', 'UK', '19' and 'Stephen', 'Sweden', '22' in the dropdown list, but I do not see the headings 'Student Name', 'Nationality', 'Age' as the first item on the list.

I have a database in which we are trying to have a field "Headcount" automatically fill with the correct value based on information in multiple fields. The "Headcount" field will be based on about 6 or 7 rules. Most of the rules i can figure out, but im having trouble figuring out what the best way would be to search for a single individual's projects when they are on more than one project at a time. I thought about using a counter of sorts to count how many projects someone was one, but how do I pick them out of the entire table once i have found out the number of projects? Would a for loop work best or just many if statements?

Hello all,
I need your help! Iam breaking my head for a day almost to solve this problem.
This is a timesheet application in MS Access in which I have a MS Access table with the following columns:
1. PersonID
2. SkillID
3. EntryDate
4. MON
5. TUE
6. WED
7. THU
8. FRI
The work hours for a person is entered once a week, at the end of the week. The person's SkillID can change but not in the same week. For ex a person scheduled as a Welder has to work as Welder for that week.
So, I need to find now all the PersonIDs with more than one SkillID in a week and flag them as errors.
Pls check the attached image. The first entry with EntryDate as "06-May-05" and Person_Code as "MK0259" repeating with 3 different Skill Codes. Then this is a problem which I want to hight light. Hope I explained clearly.
Can someone help please? Desparate!
Thanks in adv.

Ok I have heard many times that you should never save a calculated field in a table. I know this is breaking the rules but can someone tell me how to save a specific combo value change to a table? and avoid all the rest?
Here is my problem, I was asked to have a combo box that has 5 choices and when the default is changed to another choice, I must have the date saved for reference. But the date is only supposed to be saved when a specific option in the box is choosen. Such as
Default: basketball
was changed to football
I can do a timestamp but don't know how to change it when a specific option is selected. It just changes when it is updated , even when I change it to baseball
Im actually saving it but can't annoy the other options...
Can someone help me out here PLEASE

I have a report - I have a agent header and code header.
It should look like this:
Jeff Moenning Agent Header
1-Active Code Header
Report Details
For some reason the first page just has Jeff Moenning and nothing else - after that the pages are correct. They are breaking when the agent changes and also when the codes change within the agents.

Let's say that a table has been broken in two and I'd like to rejoin them with a query. Let's say 100 records in table1, 20 records in table 2. Here's a random example, I just made the names up off the top of my head:
PersonTable (100 records)
Person # (unique key)
Name
Address
SpouseTable (20 records)
Person # (lookup wizard to Table1, cascading edit/delete relationship, 1 to 1)
WeightOfSpouse
HeightOfSpouse
Many people aren't "married" and so have no corresponding value in the Spouse table. If I do an inner join on the two tables, on Person#, then it will cut the total # or returned records in the query to 20, to match the total in SpouseTable. Essentially, I want to append the results of SpouseTable to the end of the corresponding rows in PersonTable.

I have a report in which there is a subreport that prints towards the bottom of the page. I know that I can use grouping to have the subreport print on the next page if the entire subreport cannot print on the current page. However, I want to have the break occur not for the section as a whole but between records. Let me illustrate this.
All sorts of other stuff prints at the top. At the bottom, I have a subreport which today prints the following on the first page and breaks the last record in two printing the second line on the next page.
First Page of the Report:
__________________________________________________ _______________
Doctor's Full Name: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Doctor's Location: XXXXXXXXXXXX
Doctor's Full Name: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Doctor's Location: XXXXXXXXXXXX
Doctor's Full Name: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
__________________________________________________ _______________
Second Page of the Report:
__________________________________________________ _______________
Doctor's Location: XXXXXXXXXXXX
__________________________________________________ _______________
What I would like to do is the following:
First Page of the Report:
__________________________________________________ _______________
Doctor's Full Name: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Doctor's Location: XXXXXXXXXXXX
Doctor's Full Name: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Doctor's Location: XXXXXXXXXXXX
__________________________________________________ _______________
Second Page of the Report:
__________________________________________________ _______________
Doctor's Full Name: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Doctor's Location: XXXXXXXXXXXX
__________________________________________________ _______________
Is it possible to specify that if a complete record within a subreport cannot be printed on the same page to break to the next page without having the whole subreport break to the next page?

I have a date field on one of my forms that gets populated automatically when a new record is created. I also have a subform on the form that lists the tasks that still need to be accomplished this month.
Some problems have popped up as people got new computers with new versions of Access:
Access 2002(10.6501.6825) SP3 - No problems.
Access 2002(10.6771.6817) SP3 - The Date field isn't recognised on a new record (#Name?), but it's fine on the old records (displays date).
Access 2002(10.6771.6825) SP3 - The reminder subform is blank (white), as if it doesn't exist, but the date field works fine.
Any ideas why this might be/how to fix?
Thanks! This is really frustrating. If it didn't work for anyone, I would find a way to fix it, but because it works for some people, I don't know what to fix...

Raw Data
EmployeeActivityTimeStampStartTimeStampEndTotalDuration

I want to create a form that allows users to update multiple fields for multiple assets. Below is what I came up with:
Ideally, I'd like the subform to be filled in by having the user select multiple Assets from the S/N combobox field which would then auto-populate the "Type" field. Then they would fill out the appropriate fields they want edited in the top part of the form. They hit save and magic happens. This would also be nice because only assets they want edited would be displayed (easier on the eyes) and no distinguishing would be necessary. To do it this way, I know I would need to use a temp table but I wanna avoid using temp tables.
I know I can do this by adding a Yes/No field in the "Asset" table, setting the "Asset" table as the subform's recordsource, and then putting a checkbox in the subform and allowing them to check the assets that they want to edit (which would also allow me to sort it instantly so that checked Assets are at the top of the datasheet for easy viewing), but I would like to know if there's a way of accomplishing this without the use of checkboxes.
I know I could also use a listbox and that allows them to multi-select items, but I'm not sure if that allows me to group all selected items at the top of the listbox for easy viewing of selected items. Plus it would involve a lot of scrolling (there are over 2k assets).
