Can I Use A Query To Show Only One Of Each Repeated Data
Nov 7, 2007
I am really new to using access and I have a massive table 16000 or more entries. What I need to do is take this example data :
VPIAddress
001:99_97_AO
001:99_96_AO
001:99_0_AI
001:986_51_CI
001:986_50_CI
001:985_51_CI
001:985_50_CI
001:984_50_CI
001:983_51_CI
001:983_50_CI
(This is just a tiny fragment of the total data)
The 001: to the first '_' is the important bit this is defining a "Router" what I need to do is total up how many '001:*_' there are, not including duplicate numbers.
Firstly if I understood this (http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=92001) post correctly I need to have all the VPIAddress the same. If this is correct is there a way to get access to delete the data after the first '_' ? (I would of posted in this tread but i didnt think that would be right, if im wrong mods move the post :) )
Secondly will the info in that post help me to reduce the data into this :
VPIAddress
001:99_
001:986_
001:985_
001:984_
001:983_
So that I can then see how many Physical "routers" there are
If any one can help me and tell me that my idea will work then tell me how to do it id be extremely happy!
Even if any one says that wont work and gives me the correct way to do it and does a virtual "Clip around the Head" and call me a Daft Bugga I would still be happy because I wouldn't have to trawl through the entire 16000+ entries deleting and modifying.

I have qrys that show current info and also repeated info. A request has been brought to me to now count how many times the repeated data has been repeated.
The data is updated daily, so the repeated record would need to increase in the number of it's occurances by 1 each day.
Any guidance on how to accomplish this is GREATLY appreciated! :)

I am running repeated calculation queries of different data, but its is not working to well. I have one query listing the total number of hats made from wool. I then have a second query of that lists the total number of hats made from wool and are black. I have third query that calculates the percentage. I have many different hats of many different colors, and i am doing the same three queries over and over. However, the calculated field for percentages does not update. E.G. I have 100 wool hats, 10 wool,black hats, 10%. The next round: i have 100 wool hats, 5 wool green hats, its will still show me 10%, as its is still calculating based on the previous data. how can i go about this most efficiently and why is not updating?

I have created a query that is designed to return a count of how many records there are in various tables. There are 10 expressions in all, so when it is run I am expecting to see one row of data with each field populated with the number of records.
It does do this, but the data is repeated over line after line (see the attached picture)

I am trying to build a query which will find the costs from a set of tables where the client has costs.
The client has a cost on booking a fee, he has a hotel room cost and a room facility cost.
My query brings up what I want but each result is repeated 3 times.
I don't know why, can someone correct me please.
SELECT DISTINCT Addresses.ID, Holiday_Bookings.Initial_Cost, Room_Facilities.Cost, Rooms.BasicCostPerNight
FROM ((Room_Facilities INNER JOIN ((Hotels INNER JOIN Rooms ON Hotels.HotelID = Rooms.HotelID) INNER JOIN Stops ON Hotels.HotelID = Stops.HotelID) ON Room_Facilities.FacilityID = Rooms.FacilityID) INNER JOIN (Routes INNER JOIN WalkTypes ON Routes.RouteID = WalkTypes.RouteID) ON Stops.StopID = Routes.Arrive_In) INNER JOIN (Holiday_Bookings INNER JOIN (Groups INNER JOIN (Clients INNER JOIN Addresses ON Clients.ID = Addresses.ID) ON Groups.ID = Clients.GroupID) ON Holiday_Bookings.ID = Clients.ClientID) ON WalkTypes.Walk_TypeID = Groups.GroupID;

I have built a contacts manager based on an Outlook export (I know I can link the two programs, but I wanted to customize the contacts a bit further). I built the database in a way that phone numbers, addresses, etc. allow for multiple entries for each person under the same column using a foreign key. The only difference is a field called "Type" which designates the entry for Home, Work, etc. The issue I ran into is when I queried the data I get multiple entries for the same record. As you are all likely aware, Access repeats the data in a query for each different case. For example if Bob Jones has a personal and work phone number, Access will show the results in a query like this:
1. Bob Jones 555-555-5555 Personal
1. Bob Jones 555-222-2222 Work
2. Jerry Smith 555-111-1111 Personal
If I kept the data in Access it wouldn't necessarily be an issue. However, I want to be able to export the data in an excel file. How do I get Excel to return the data so it looks like this:
1. Bob Jones 555-555-5555 Personal 555-222-2222 Work
2. Jerry Smith 555-111-1111 Personal

I have two one-many related tables: Transactions and Site Details. Most of the Transactions information can be filled in first, and then the Site Details filled in when they are ready.
How do I get a query based on both tables to show those transactions with missing site details? I have tried IsNull(SiteName) in the SiteName field in the Design View, but I don't get any results at all (for records with no SiteName). The answers I've seen in Google seem to be variations on the theme, but I am probably missing something simple (as usual).
I orignally posted this with a question about tracking revision history. I thought it might be a similar solution, since I want to add information to the blank fields when the information becomes available. But I need to find those transactions WITH blank fields first.

I'm trying to set a query with 6 fields.
My question is: Is it possible that the query shows me a combo box to select what is connected to this data.
Example fields:
HospCode; HospName; Dept; ModName; SerialN; DatInst
I'm looking to select name of a hospital from "HospName" from a list box. If no, then at least to write the name and the rest I'll get it associated with the name.
Then I need to know if I can put this in a form so the form asks same criteria?

I have a form that request information from the user (StartDate, StartTime, EndDate and EndTime) the problem is that it's not working. The only way I can get any data to show is when I remove the StartTime and EndTime. Only then will it pull the items from the StartDate and EndDate.
Here is what I have as my criteria: Between [Forms]![OpPROD_ALL]![StartTime] And [Forms]![ OpPROD_ALL]![EndTime] And Between [Forms]![ OpPROD_ALL]![StartDate] And [Forms]![ OpPROD_ALL]![EndDate]
The users will be able to request a report based on a start and end date along with a start time and end time.
Side note: this is to pull date for 3rd shift (Example) 4/14/2013 10:00PM - 4/15/2013 10PM

Hello All,
In my table, I have some records that are duplicated (aside from the primary key).
How can I select only one record from each set of duplicated entries? (There may be more than 2 of each of the duplicated records, but I only need to pull one of them...doesn't matter which one.)
i.e...Like a 'Find Duplicates' query, but only returning the top 1 primary key from each duplicated set.
Thanks,
Sarge.

I have a pair of combo boxes which are n a frm and work fine.
The code is:
Private Sub cboSubjectSelector_AfterUpdate()
Me!cboOneBookSelector.Requery

I want the combo boxes to be repeated five more times so that the same options are given within the same form. Every time inset a copy of the same combo box get the folowing error message:
'Microsft Access can't find the macro 'requery''
I am ot sure what I need to do nrder t remove the error message. I did not create a macro called 'requery' tis part of the code above.
I have alos tried to recopy the code above and then retnamed the cbo in the form adn then modified then copied and modified the code to see if that helps - it doesn't. Any ideas - please help.

I have a form that simply lists the items:
DEPARTMENT_NBR and DEPARTMENT_NAME
In the table: DEPARTMENT_TBL
When I edit the field DEPARTMENT_NBR and it is in error (must be between 01 and 99) I want to put out a message in a MSGBOX and SetFocus back on the DEPARTMENT_NBR.
I coded the MSGBOX with vbokonly and then DEPARTMENT_NBR.SetFocus, but after the message displays and enter is hit for the ok the cursor jumps to the DEPARTMENT_NAME on the current line. Is there a way to get the SetFocus to work properly on repeating items like this? I can never seem to get them to perform the same as they do on non-repeating items.
Thanks for your help.
HERE'S THE EXACT CODE:
If IsNumeric(DEPARTMENT_NBR) = False Then
If DEPARTMENT_NBR <> "00" Then
MsgBox "DEPARTMENT NUMBER must between 01 and 99.", vbOKOnly
DEPARTMENT_NBR.SetFocus
GoTo DEPARTMENT_NBR_EXIT
End If
End If
Also, is there a way to look at a specific item in a list like that? IE. I want to reference the 3rd row's DEPARTMENT_NBR. Thanks.

I have an activity report which has multiple entries for the same date by club members. I have managed to build the database:
2 Tables
2 Queries
2 Forms
1 Report
Which list attendance's and activities by Member and Date and Prints each one starting on a fresh page..What I wish to do is count each Club Members total days attendance. I have tried using the Totals button but I don't know enough about expressions to get it to count multiple dates as 1.
Everywhere I have looked can tell me how to count between dates, around dates, workdays in a year etc. etc. etc. but none give me multiple dates the same counted as 1.

my search form has a combo box with "make"names. i can add new makes via a other form. so the combo box needs te run via a query so that it can list new makes (so that i can also search them). but, since some makes repeat them selves in the table, sometimes up to 15 times (see atachment 1), the combo box will show 15 times the same make. i just need it to show the make 1 time, all of the makes just 1 time. only way i can do that is to type them my self (see atachment 2). but then new makes that are added later wont be shown in the list.
so: i want that the make is only shown once in the list, and that the list is updated with new makes that are added later. how do i do that?
note: a "make" E.G = Philips, Apple, LG, Microsoft, creative etc (just for the lesser skilled english readers like me )
all help is welcome

Right now I have a flat database with too many unnormalized fields. I am trying to figure out how to break down the repeated "QuantityOrdered" 1 through 5. "QuantityReceived" 1 through 5.
"RequestedItems" 1 through 5 and "Price" per unit 1 through 5. I'm not sure if they go into the same tables, if they are each listed 5 times and if in different tables how many instances 1 or 5 to show each as seperate and how to create a relationship between them.

I have data from a survey with qualitative responses. For a single qualitative question, I moved the ID & responses into a new table and categorized the response according to a bucket/theme, where each column is a new bucket. I now have 10 columns. Each response is represented in 1 or more columns. I used an excel formula to copy the response data into the column itself.
Example:
A1 // B1// C1 // D1// E1//... L1
ID // Response // Cats // Dogs // Elephants //.... Column 10
1 // I like cats // I like cats //(null)//(null)// ... (null)//
2 // I like cats and dogs // I like cats and dogs // I like cats and dogs //(null)//..//
3 // etc.
However, now I'm realizing that Access always wants to show data for all records, or at most I can limit using a WHERE clause in my query.I want to use Access to generate this report:
1. Section 1: Show all responses from the Cats bucket where there is data
2. Section 2: Show all responses from the Dogs bucket where there is data
3. and so on
I know how to do summary values, and I know how to do filtering that apply across the whole report, but this seems like more advanced filtering, where I want to see selective details differently for each field.

I just recently started programming in MS Access. I have some forms with lots of combo boxes. I do not want users to type anything in the boxes, but to only select stuff that is contained in the drop down menus.I found this useful code and I am using it in my combo boxes on the key down event to do what I want.
Private Sub cmb_a_KeyDown(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer)
If KeyCode <> vbKeyTab And KeyCode <> vbKeyReturn Then KeyCode = 0
End Sub
Private Sub cmb_b_KeyDown(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer)
If KeyCode <> vbKeyTab And KeyCode <> vbKeyReturn Then KeyCode = 0
End Sub
Private Sub cmb_c_KeyDown(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer)
If KeyCode <> vbKeyTab And KeyCode <> vbKeyReturn Then KeyCode = 0
End Sub
The issue is because I have so many combo boxes, is there a better way to rewrite the code so I don't have to repeat the same code in 20 places?

:confused: Running Access 2000. Have a table with Employee number and data, another with training (number ID's) that also has the Employee number.
Therefore the employee number is shown numerous times throughout the table.
What I want to do is bring up a list of employees who have NOT got a specific training ID only.
Hope this makes sense.

Hi.
I have a subform (based on table "Source") that allows the user to create a new record in another table "Events" (it copies some entries to facilitate entering new data). The data should then be dispayed in another subform. However, the newly created redord is does not show in the subform although I use Me.Refresh. When I close the form and then open it again it works - but there has to be an easier way.
How can I reload the data from the table. I have looked but am unable to find the right method.
The code:
'Create New Record in Table Events
Call AddEvent(EventDate, Country)
'This function opens the table and adds a record
'Open Subform
DoCmd.GoToControl "subfrm_events"
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acLast
Me.Refresh
Help would be much appreciated!
