I have a table which stores multiple materials in different columns, and the analysis results for each material in the associated cell. I need to create a query which will display a new row for each material and result with all the appropriate associations (location, date, time, etc.) Is there a way to do this in a single query? Do I have to create a separate query for each material?
Ultimately, I need to create an excel file which displays each material, the analysis result for that material, and the associated site, date/time values in a new row for each material.
Thanks for any help.
I have a database which contains a table called "orders" that has a field called "quantity" in it. I also have a query called "defective parts supplied" which has a field called "defective parts".How would I use a new query called "% failure/defect rate per supplier" to calculate the following:100 * [defective parts]/[quantity].

View 6 Replies View RelatedHi all,
In the organisation that I work for employees get paid every 2 weeks on a Saturday. So for this financial year the pay period end dates have been 08/07/2006, 22/07/2006, 05/08/2006 etc
I have a column in an Access table listing various dates. I want the next column to be
populated with the next pay period end date after that date.
So if DATE is 05/07/2006 I want PAY PERIOD END to be 08/07/2006
and if DATE is 09/07/2006 I want PAY PERIOD END to be 22/07/2006 etc
How do I do this?
Kind Regards,

Hi folks,
I wonder how can I list all the column names for a given table using a single query? I know how to do it in SQL using system tables, but no idea how to do that in Access.
Thanks.
I use a Make-Table Action query to import data from a linked table into my database. The linked table is on a network server that is automatically updated.
One column of the linked table is named "QTY/PARTIAL" and approximately 10% of the 500 records have a "P" after a number i.e. 1000 P. I would like to separate the number and the P into separate columns in the new table to faciliate being able to compute the total number "QTY".
Thanks,

How to take the results of query and copy them to a column in a table?
I am using sharepoint and ms access together, and Sharpoint in this instance will not reference the result of the query. I can only use table fields with Sharepoint...major pain....
Example, I need riders name, weight and height from the column in ALL INfo query to automatically fill the column table in ALL Info
queryreservations!AllINfo.value=tablereservations! Allinfo.value
and how to loop through records that are not filled out already?
seems like it should be a simple Do.command but I am not sure how to code it..
I have two tables,
Table A:
Year Type Count
1992 Walk 82
1992 Bike 43
1992 Vechicle 298
1992 Ship 3
1992 flight 3478
1993 Walk 47
1993 Bike 13
1993 Vechicle 638
1993 Ship 24
1993 flight 3111
1994 Walk 0
1994 Bike 8
1994 Vechicle 1298
1994 Ship 24
1994 flight 3234
Table B:
ID Type
T1 Walk
T2 Bike
T3 Vechicle
T4 Ship
T5 flight
The two table linked by the [type]
I need a query expression like: SlowWay: IIf([TableB].[ID]= 'T1' AND [TableB].[ID]= 'T2',[TableA].[Count])
FastWay: IIf([TableB].[ID]= 'T3' AND [TableB].[ID]= 'T4' AND [TableB].[ID]= 'T5',[TableA].[Count])
My expression keep gives me the error.
Please would you be able to advise me how I would copy data from a column in one table to a column another table.
But I need to only use table not a query.
Thank you in advance for your help.

View 3 Replies View RelatedHow can I update (some columns) in a table from the same table based on a Criteria column in the same table.
View 2 Replies View Related I'm trying to use VBA to update a new column in a table with info I already have in another table.The table I want to update is an inventory details table, it has around 25,000 records. I added a column called "UnitCost", of course the column is empty for all 25,000 records so I would like to fill it easily using DoCmd.RunSQL "UPDATE" feature.
I use that through-out the program however I'm unable to connect the dots for this one.What it needs to do is update "UnitCost" in "InventoryDetails" from "Products" where "InventoryDetails.ProductNumber" = "Products.ProductNumber"
The "Products" table has all the different unit cost, it just need to be placed in the "InventoryDetails" table for every record. Of course product1 needs products1 unit cost and product2 needs products2 unit cost, etc.
How to copy a column from one table and insert it into another table in the same database
Hi, All,
I have two tables (old and new) sitting in the same database. The new table is the result of 'data cleansing' done by an external company. In the process (export and import via excel) two memo type colums in the table were truncated in excel.
To make the new table usable, I must therefore now copy/insert the two memo columns from the old table into the new table.
Both tables are already Access tables and sit in the same database. Both tables, of course, have the same number of rows.
I tried to high-light one column in the old table, clicked copy, then high-lighted a blank column in the target table, then clicked Paste, but got error msg: "This text is too long for this field. Try copying a shorter text", as if I had wanted to copy the whole column into one cell rather than one column into another column of equal length.
What is the best way to proceed?
Thanks for your help.

I have one database containing several tables, two of which are associated to this inquiry:
1) tblCategories
Contains two columns: CatID and Category Name
2) tblPending
Contains many columns of data obtained through upload from a web form including a column to capture the CatID and also a column for Category Name.
I wish to populate the Category Name column based on the results of data uploaded into CatID column
How is this accomplished? This is inherited project and I have very little experience with Access so just limping along...
Specific instruction much appreciated.
Thank you.
Ok everyone, I need your help. I知 trying to create a simple database template for robotics teams in MS Access hopefully to be used in our upcoming season, if we have one. I知 using MS Access 2003 and I知 trying to create a Transaction Log table like this.
Description Amount Date Balance
--------------------------------------
Sponsorship $11,000 9/21/05 $11,000
Registration ($6,000) 9/22/05 $5,000
The thing is, I want the Balance field to automatically fill in by adding the value of Amount to the previous fields Balance value, or if it痴 the first entry in the table then setting the balance equal to the amount. Is there any way to do this?
Thanks all.

Hi all
I am currently building a holiday planner for my employers and I would like to try and display the days of the year as rows and the staff as columns (Fields). When someone adds a new member of staff, I would like it to also add them to the calendar table as a new column and name the column the same as the individuals name. Is this possible using VBA or SQL string?
If anyone has a better idea as to how I can display the forthcoming holidays for a team I would really appreciate your comments.
Thanks
Gareth
