I have a query that gives me data from a table, and I then export it as text to Excel. In Excel I do some edits, insert columns with special characters as delimiters, then copy it into a JScript data set.
This all takes some time, and has a number of steps that need to be done in a certain order - prone to errors on my part...Is it possible to use VBA to make the changes in the query to reduce the manual steps perhaps even to remove Excell from the process entirely and just save the query to a text file?
The query has 5 fields:
TxtProductCode Unique to each item
curCurrentPrice The listed price
txtHeading The Main description of the item
txtDetails Additional details
txtVender A name of who has the item
In Excel I change all instances of '"' to ' inch', then insert the delimiter fields, and the final line for the item looks like this:
I've created a query where I am searching a database of job titles for contacts that are considered senior management.
One criteria I've entered into a query is as follows:
Like "*Vice*"
Which is meant to identify anyone with "Vice" in the title. The problem is I have noticed this also returns records with "service". So can I edit this query to specify that the "V" must be capitalized? I think this would serve.
i've got a Form that contains Subform with an embedded Query that contains 2 tables only (Payments & Invoices) the Join properties between them show all records from payments and what matches it from Invoices where the joined fields are equal (Invoice no).. So, when i enter certain data in the main form the Subform show the results for it from Payments table and only one field needed from the Invoices table !!
The problem is.. i can't edit or add any data in the Subform results with the previous setting, but when i completely remove the Invoices table from the embedded Query then swift to the Form and it's Subform.. i become able to edit and add data in the Subform easily... !!
So, how to enable the edit/add in the Subform with the 2 tables in the embedded Query ?! Cause it's really needed to show that field from the Invoices table.
I have query that runs ok but will not let me edit the data when I run it. I have 4 tables going to that query , if I delete a certain table I can then edit the query.
I used to queries ,1 to get items that are taken ( its all about sign in sign out for equipment) and other query is list of all items. How can i make 3rd query which will give me all but taken items from query1? (of course items from query 1 are in query2) thx in advance
Is there a way to edit/replace tables in a query after you've copied the query? Basically, I have created a query and would like to copy the quesry. However, I would like to easily change some of the tables within the query. Is there a way to edit/replace the tables?
I have an issue I do not know how to tackel. I have a select query that selects from three tables to calculate the commission for each transaction. The query is working just fine.
My problem is that I need an additional function ... What if I need to charge a special commission for that specific trade ?
I need to ammend the commission based on a figure I input in a text box from the form view.
Example: - Commission (calculated by the query) is 100.00 - Special Commission (which is a text box on the form) is 80.00 Then Commission field = 80.00
PLEASE HELP .. Please let me know if you have any other suggestion in tackling this problem. Thanks
Query Commission: IIf([Shares]![Currency]="USD" Or [Shares]![Currency]="CAD",IIf([Blotter]![Quantity]*[Clients]![USD_2]<[Clients]![USD_1],[Clients]![USD_1],[Blotter]![Quantity]*[Clients]![USD_2]),IIf([Shares]![Currency]="GBp" Or [Shares]![Currency]="EUR",IIf([Subtotal]*[Clients]![EUR_GBP_2]<[Clients]![EUR_GBP_1],[Clients]![EUR_GBP_1],[Subtotal]*[Clients]![EUR_GBP_2]),IIf([Subtotal]*[Clients]![HKD_JPY_2]<[Subtotal]*[Clients]![HKD_JPY_1],[Subtotal]*[Clients]![HKD_JPY_1],[Subtotal]*[Clients]![HKD_JPY_2])))
I have done a query which has calculated fields, but I can't edit the stored fields directly from the query, instead I have to go to the table so as to edit it. Is this the way it works or is something wrong?
SELECT [INSTRUCCIONES DE EMBARQUE].N_OP, [INSTRUCCIONES DE EMBARQUE].[N° FAC EXP], [INSTRUCCIONES DE EMBARQUE].[FECHA CUMP], [INSTRUCCIONES DE EMBARQUE].[DERECHO PGC], [INSTRUCCIONES DE EMBARQUE].[VTO DER EXP], [INSTRUCCIONES DE EMBARQUE].[IMPORTE REINTEGRO], [DETALLE CONTENEDOR].CANTIDAD, [DETALLE CONTENEDOR].[VALOR FOB], [INSTRUCCIONES DE EMBARQUE].[TIPO DE CAMBIO], [TIPO DE CAMBIO]*[VALOR FOB] AS [PRECIO VTA (ARS)], [PRECIO VTA (ARS)]*[CANTIDAD] AS [TOTAL(ARS)], [TOTAL(ARS)]/[TIPO DE CAMBIO] AS [TOTAL(USD)] FROM [INSTRUCCIONES DE EMBARQUE], [DETALLE CONTENEDOR];
I have a table structure that I guess could be called a dual one-to-many-to-one, as can be seen in the attached Relationships screen print. Customer loan files are maintained in an AllFiles table, tied to the Customers and Loans tables through the CustomerFiles and LoanFiles tables. Users access the data from an unbound form called FileProcessing, where they can select a customer, and a loan for that customer. The files linked to that customer and loan then appear on a form called Files. However, I need the data on Files to be updateable, and I'm having a hard time coming up with a Files datasource that can be updated. The SQL that retrieves the needed data is:
Code: SELECT AllFiles.* FROM (AllFiles INNER JOIN CustomerFiles ON AllFiles.FileNum = CustomerFiles.FileNum) INNER JOIN LoanFiles ON AllFiles.FileNum = LoanFiles.FileNum WHERE LoanFiles.LoanNum=[Forms]![FileProcessing]![tbLoanNum] AND CustomerFiles.CIFKey=[Forms]![FileProcessing]![tbLoanCIFKey];
I tried creating another query that just had the AllFiles table linked to the above query, but the data still couldn't be updated.
For some reason i've had to make an update on some old VBA projects of mine. In this update i switch all references of DAO to ADO. I know there are some limits to what i can accomplish with ADO (where i would need to use DAO). Anyways in some of these old projects i use an SQL statement to provide me with a limited number of records which i then modify by iterating through the recordset.
I can't get this to work with ADO. It's as if it always expects me to provide a table in the argument.
In short my question is. Is it possible to change the values returned from an SQL statement using ADO
Code: 'This is the DAO version which is exactly what i'm looking to using ADO strSqlCommandText = "SELECT tblMain.TaskID, tblMain.Heading FROM tblMain WHERE (((tblMain.TaskID)=" & ProcessForm.txtIDValue.Text & "))" Set objRecordset = pubObjDatabase.OpenRecordset(strSqlCommandText, dbOpenDynaset) objRecordset.Edit objRcsToDbTable.Fields("Heading") = ProcessForm.txtBoxHeading.Text objRecordset.Update
This is what i've done and it doesn't work.
Code: strSqlCommandText = "SELECT tblMain.TaskID, tblMain.Heading FROM tblMain WHERE (((tblMain.TaskID)=" & ProcessForm.txtIDValue.Text & "))" Set objRecordset = New ADODB.Recordset objRecordset.Open strSqlCommandText, pubObjDatabase, adOpenDynamic, adLockOptimistic objRecordset.Edit objRcsToDbTable.Fields("Heading") = ProcessForm.txtBoxHeading.Text objRecordset.Update
I can think of some work around like, creating a temp table and insert/update all the records from there or creating an UPDATE SQL statement.
I have 2 tables (tblItemsQB and tblItemInfo) that have a 1 to 1 relationship linked by the "PartNumber" field. The tblItemsQB table contains a description field and 2 price fields (this table is downloaded from Quickbooks). The tblItemInfo table contains additional fields with information on the part that isn't contained in Quickbooks, like OrderType, Phase, SubSystem.
I import the items from QB into tblItemsQB and then do an outer join with tblItemInfo to link all the information for the part. If I have created a new part in Quickbooks, when I do the outer join (I include all records from tblItemsQB) I can see the new part but since the part number doesn't exist yet in tblItemInfo, I can't add the information to the fields in that table.
What is the easiest way to create the new PartNumbers (those that exist in tblItemsQb but not in tblItemInfo) in the tblItemInfo table so I can add the other information to it?
Hi have a table tblImportLearnerFunding with the fields [LCCode], [Date] and [Total Learner Funding]
I want to create a table to see the funding generated for each LCCode in custom date ranges: LCCode, DateRange1, DateRange2, DateRange3
I can almost get it to work using the crosstab query wizard, but I need to specify the date ranges. Instead of Jan I want to sum the funding in the date range 01/01/2005 to the 28/01/2005 and so on.... Does anyone have any clues?
Here's the Crosstab SQL:
TRANSFORM Sum(tblImportLearnerFunding.[Total Learner Funding]) AS [SumOfTotal Learner Funding] SELECT tblImportLearnerFunding.LCCode, Sum(tblImportLearnerFunding.[Total Learner Funding]) AS [Total Of Total Learner Funding] FROM tblImportLearnerFunding GROUP BY tblImportLearnerFunding.LCCode PIVOT Format([Date],"mmm") In ("Jan","Feb","Mar","Apr","May","Jun","Jul","Aug","Sep","Oct","Nov","Dec");
I have a query that selects records based on certain flags in each record. I can view the record in datasheet view, but I need to be able to edit the records selected by the query using another form. Is there any way to automate this process?
How can I edit a query in SQL view to run multiple lines of SQL?
For example I can use the GUI to create a query, then in SQL view enter the following:
DELETE FROM Employees_copy;
which clears the Employees_copy table. Perfect. But what if I want to do this for mulitple tables in the same query eg for a second table Employees_copy_2 as well? I've tried
DELETE FROM Employees_copy DELETE FROM Employees_copy_2;
which gives a syntax error, as does
DELETE FROM Employees_copy, DELETE FROM Employees_copy_2;
I have a table called "Workorders" that I have created a split form for and have customised it so that it had combo boxes etc to enable the user to change the record data.I then needed to add some existing queries to the form so that I could calculate some totals from records in a few other tables. This all works fine EXCEPT that I can no longer change any of the fields in the records.
I am sure that it is something to do with the fact that the 3 queries I added to the form use the "Grouped by" option and based upon my Googling, this is probably the issue.Here is one of the queries:
SELECT DISTINCTROW [Workorder Labor].WorkorderID, Sum([BillableHours]*[BillingRate]) AS [Labor Total] FROM [Workorder Labor] GROUP BY [Workorder Labor].WorkorderID;
I need to have the totals and I also need to have the ability to change the data..
I have a query where I group by EmpID, so duplicates do not show up. In this query I have two fields with no data. These fields are to be filled in after the query is run in a form. However, these fields are not editable due to the group by feature. I tried two unbound fields, which does allow me to type, but doesn't save the changes once I click out of the field. The field then reverts back to blank.
this works fine and i can search using a requery button
however as deptartments are stored in tbldepts
when i change the query to retrieve the dept name instead of number directly from the table and i try to change this on the datasheet subform it changes it in tbldepts instead?
how can i change what dept the employee is in (as in change the number in tblemployee - but display the actual name?)
I run a physical therapy office and patients come in for treatment either 3, 4 or 5 times per week. My database is used to track these frequencies (among other things).
I have 3 queries which count how many patients come in 5, 4 and 3 times/week.
In my main table I have fields called "how many 5's", "how many 4's" and "how many 3's".
I have tried to design an update query which will update those fileds in my main table to reflect the counts in the 3 queries mentioned above.
(I'm not using SQL view, I'm using the query design view)
In the "update to:" row, I use the Build function and locate the count I'm looking for.
Problem: when I run the query I get the error: Operation must use an updateable query.
Here's my problem. I need to generate a report that says how much of each individual product was produced and as well as the total produced for a specified category in a time period. Something like the following:
I currently have a query that queries a database and pulls out all products that were produced in a specified period and the categories they belong to and dump them into a local access table. Now what I need to do is search through the query results and count up how many of each product were produced (02 AA, 01 AB, etc...) and the totals for each category. The number of categories is pretty limited (6), but there are hundreds of product codes, so I need a way to do this without having to type in each induvidual product code as the requirement by which the query searches. Also, the product codes that get returned are different every day.
I was thinking something along the lines of take the product code of the first row and check for any others in the results that match and write that into another table. Then move onto row 2 and use its product code as a search parameter and search through the query results for any matches. Then continue that until the end of the query results. Can I do that? Is there a better way to achieve what I need?
I am trying to filter a form to show the entire weekend's activity on Monday but only yesterday's activity Tuesday through Friday. Using this code I can return Friday's results on Monday and yesterday's for the rest. How do I get the range Friday to Sunday?
I have a query that displays results in a form, but if the query is null, I want to display a different form, or just an error message that says something like "your query returned no results" (right now it will display the form with no fields)
I am a beginning Access/VBA user and have searched and browsed the forum for combinations of null/query/form, but haven't found what I need. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
I am wanting my query results to appear in my main form so that i can edit them, rather than a table the query is just a look up of my form that stores about 500 records and stores all the same fields
Is there a way to write one query that will work for different criteria and is run by different buttons to produce bar graphs or a basic report depending on the button the user clicks??
I am working on a query but can manage to get it to do what I want. I have a main table with a job_ID and a faults table which documents faults that occur related to that Job_ID the tables are related with a one to many relationship. I want the query to bring up all the jobs even those with no faults, at present it is only bring up those jobs that have faults, how do I include details of all the jobs and if there are no faults then that field is left blank, probably very simple to do but after working on this db for hours my brain is no longer functioning!! :eek:
