I have a data source table with names, addresses and UK postcodes, and another table that has partial postcodes (the bit before the space) and I need to look up the local authority for each postcode. I created a front end that links to both tables and tried converting the full postcode in one table to the first 4 characters and the partial postcode in the other table to the first 4 characters too, using two separate queries, both of which give the right results. Then I used a third query based on both of the above to match up the records from both queries, but I get a "Data type mismatch in criteria expression" error. I am just using queries on tables because I'm not very au fait with VBA and so on. Any ideas, anyone please? (I can happily email all to anyone who wants to look.)
I have created several Queries and I would like to have a column that numbered the results. I have looked all over saw a couple of samples but havent had any luck. Anyone have any suggestions. Thanks for your help and have a good New Year.
Just to clarify basically this is what I need. Loan Number is the Primary key.

I'm certainly not new to Access, but this is the first time encountering a problem like this. I have a table with 3 Field Names, [Return], [Header] and [Date]. An example table looks like so..
I need to take to have group the Header's together, for instance 10, and have it return the [Date] for whichever line has the lowest [Return] value. I just can't figure out how to do it. Any help or insight would be GREATLY appreciated. I'm 90% done with the project, and this last part will seal the deal.
I have a database from which users e-mail country specific reports to a group of receipients.
I am currently using the following code: DoCmd.SendObject acReport, "Report UK", "SnapshotFormat (*.snp)", "rec1@company.co.uk;rec2@company.co.uk;rec3@company .co.uk", "", "", "Report UK", "See attached document", False, ""
Everytime when a receipient needs to be changed or added the users ask me and I have to change this code; this is offcourse not the best way. For some countries I even have as much as 15 recepients
What I would like to do is set up a table showing for each country the e-mailreceipients, link this to my form and use the field from the form in my code which is activated by a click on a button. So I started testing this, but I am really breaking my head on this one.... I found two other examples on e-mail from which I took some code and sort of got something working. The problem that I have now (see attached database) is that even though there are e-mailaddresses in the field on the form the code considers the field empty (null) only after clicking on the field the script works.
My idea however was to make this field a hidden field - users should no be bothered about this Anybody have an ide how I can overcome my problem?????
Hi All. Before I start, I have read other posts on relationship, but none that can answer this, so if it does, maybe someone can point me in the right direction. I have put together database's before, but just with parent to child relationships. I need a db to go further.....and have been trying for about a week, just going round in circles!!
e.g. I have the following tables...
tblProject tblBuilding tblFloor tblroom.
I can create it so there are many buildings in each project, that is OK. I need it so there can be many floors under each of the buildings, and many rooms undereach of the floors etc etc etc. Also, need a Unique_ID for every record of building, floor, room. I will need in the end to run a report on a room, which will tell me the floor, building, project it is in etc. I cannot work out the relationship's between each table and, I know I can insert a subform into a form which will link tblProject to tblBuilding, but how do I add tblFloor to that link? I do hope this makes sense, and I have attached a db which may help explain
Let see if I can explain my goal. I've been fighting with this for some time with no resolve. In the included DB has a table that represents the fields that will be queried in the real DB. It shows records of one of many employees that were "tested" (shopped) on a date and whether it was a successfull shop or not. My goal is in three parts.
1)A query that goes through each employee and returns the records with the check box in SuccessYes checked (Yes) back to the last unchecked box, not including the unchecked box. In the example given the last (most recent) 5 records would be returned. If the shop of date 1/18/2005 was not checked, it would only return the last 2 records. Basically, I'm looking for a way to have a report that shows everyone's current successes in a row. It could be any number.
2)A query very similar but it returns only those employees that have the current successes in a row totalling 5 and where the field "Award5_Paid" is NOT checked (they have not been paid their reward). From there it should be easy to do one for the 10 in a row.
3)If I've got a form open (or...?) where I can place a command button, that when clicked, it appends the selected records with checks in the appropriate boxes for being paid. Example: If a set of employees come up in the query with 5 successfull shops in a row because the "Award5_Paid" field is unchecked, then I need to pay them. Click the button and the Award5_Paid field gets checked in THOSE RECORDS ONLY so that the next time I run the query, they won't show up and get paid twice. Issue? What's the coding or SQL or ??? that's run when clicked.
I hope that makes sense. I've been running around in circle trying to figure this one out. Maybe it can't be done, but if it can, I know some of you know how. As always, thanks for the assistance.
I have a split database. The front end with forms etc is distributed to users and the back end with tables sits on a shared drive.
I have been trying to set the security on this and quite frankly it's driving me mad. I managed to get the security set with 5 user groups and about 100 users - it all worked well on my PC but when I distributed it, the copies open with the Admin as user, no password required, resulting in no security whatsoever.
Further reading showed me that I had to change the owner of all objects from Admin to a new adminitrator, who I named Custodian1. This I did. I then created a new database while logged on as Custodian1. So, the new database has all objects owned by Custodian1 and the database itself is owned by Custodian1.
The book said I had to delete the Admin user but, after asking if I was sure that I wanted to delete the user, Access would not let me.
I went through the Workgroup security wizzard a number of times to try to reset things that way, all to no avail. I then did the whole ownership change thing with the back end database and relaunched the wizzard. Still unable to delete the Admin user.
My final attempt was to use the wizzard and create a new WIF rater than edit the existing file. And still, I cannot delete the Admin user and distributed copies have no security.
I don't know how this ties in, but the distributed copies do not seem to be linked to the WIF although they find the Back End database, in the same shared drive/directory with no problems. If I set a password on a distributed FE database copy, it then cannot be opened as the users are not defined.
I'm obviously missing something fundamental to the whole process. A further difficulty is that I have the live database FE/BE, working copies FE/BE, The security wizzard backups FE/BA, and all the directories have similar names. On top of that, I have my normal none database duties to distract me. I'm finding it very hard to keep track of where I am or what I am doing.
Any help most gratefully appreciated and received.
The asset managment system I have been developing is due to go live next week and I am really struggling with the data entry and search forms.
I have attached a picture of the main form (and outlined each subform) to give you an idea of my project. The attached form is actually a Main Equipment Type Detail form with a child subform AssetMain which has a number of child subforms i.e. Asset Details, Purchase Details etc.
When a user clicks to add a new asset a popup form asks them to select an equipment type i.e. PC. When they click it opens the attached form. Their selection filters the equipment type detail values in the combo i.e. Laptop, Tower, Server etc. When a value is then selected in the combo you can then add an asset for that equipment type detail. (One Equip Type > Many Equip Type Detail > Many Assets)
1st Problem) I have set the Asset Main subform to allow additions only. When the whole form opens, the Equipment Type combo (at the top) does not display a value but does actually contain the first value. How do I force my user's to select a value in the combo before it actually filters the child subform?
2nd Problem) The Asset Main Subform (filtered by selected Equip Type) should only be used for data entry. I set the data entry property of the form to True but when the value in the Equip type combo changes, it displays all the relating records in the subform. My only solution so far is to stick
Subform.DataEntry = True in the Equip Type combo's after update event. However, this doesnt look to good as it flashes up with the data and then displays a blank record. Any ideas?
3rd problem) Due to the fact that I am using a number of subforms, my tab order is such that values are entered for the main form (i.e. ID, Condition) then subforms (i.e. manufacturer) then back to the main form (i.e. allocated to). This means that: a) I am having problems validating the record beforeinsert as I have had to change the required property to "no" b) Once the user has tabbed through all the forms what is the best way to go to a new record? Alternatively if I add a new record button I need to check that the necessary fields have been filled in (on all of the forms/subforms).
and finally the 4th) I have a search form that queries the assets. The search results are displayed in a list box. When you dblclick the list box I need to show the asset details. Question: Can I use the above form to do this? My only problem is that I need to open the AssetMain form which is a sub form in the above. If I try and use the existing form it will not open as many of the controls refer to the form as a subform. Do you think I need to create a separate form for showing the data to entering it?
Would really appreciate some help (not that you havent heard that before :) ) My head is going to pop in a minute!!!
I need to know a way to make to perform the following tasks
When I choose a selection from the first pull down it will fill the next pull down list with different values depending on what I choose on the first pull down list
I'm totally newbie so please go easy on me, I finally learnt how to make database and tables by reading online tutorials. I'm now able to create a simple database in access, using tables and stuff. I want to ask, say i put 500 entries in my database and then i want to search for some specific data, how do i do that?
Say I'm making a database of model's agencies, and i want to pull all the models working in same agency and stuff like that, how do i do that. Do i have to create queries or forms? i'm confused, please help.
I would like to build a query and ask it to choose a boat name out of a list of pre set names. When the pop up box appears to type the name, i would like it to be a combo box where the name can be pulled from the list. can this be done? thanks in advance.
Hiya all, I know the title is confusing, and so is the problem (to me at least). Basically, I have a database with an invoice form. Each record is an invoice, and on this form there is a subform of additional charges. The tables are linked by InvoiceID. It worked smashingly when I was playing around with it, until I finally tried an invoice with no additional charges. The queries for my reports display no records (because there are none). This is an issue, because I need a summed up amount of the charges to complete the invoice. I cannot do this on the report, because additional expressions are used on the charges.
Basically, my problem comes down to this: I have no additional charges, so certain fields in my query don't exist, therefore the entire query record won't display. I was screwing around with NZ() and IsNull() before I realized that a null record and the absence of a record are different.
I've been searching, but can't seem to find the right keywords to produce a fruitful search. If anyone can point me in the right direction or give me some words of advice, I'd greatly appreciate it. And yes, as far as I know, my database is fully normalized.
I was wondering was it possible to have my queries in a pull down list and I hit a button and the query/report is ran? Or do I have to stay with about 6 or 7 buttons on a form?
I am having trouble. I have a log table and I am trying to pull two records at once. The records im trying to pull is the most recent record update as well as the original record.
Example:
I want to pull for Toysrus the first log intry for this company when I first put the record in. And I want to pull the most recent update that I did for this company. Is there a way to pull both records at the same time? The first and the last?
Any help would be appreciated. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!

Code BrandName Lead Free Nickel Free 001 AAAA Yes Yes 002 AAAA Yes No
On a form the user selects the code field and in this table the field is called BRAND. On the same form, I need to display the value in the Nickel Free field so if selects 001, the field on the form needs to be "Yes", if the user selects "002", the value needs to be "No"
I'm working in Access 97 (though I can use Access2000) and Outlook2000 and am trying to write a process that will go into a specified folder in a user's outlook and pull in the data from the emails there. The data will be in a standard csv format - but my biggest problem is trying to figure out how to systematically go into the folder, import the data from the email, and then move to the next email in the folder...
I have a crosstab query that I ONLY need the newest date from the table I'm pulling from reguardless of what it is for. Here is what I have:
TRANSFORM Max([Cust Count].[Active Customers]) AS [MaxOfActive Customers] SELECT [Cust Count].Node, Sum([Cust Count].[Active Customers]) AS [Total Of Active Customers] FROM [Cust Count] WHERE ((([Cust Count].Services) In ("core","data","telephone")) AND (([Cust Count].ASC)="uh") AND (([Cust Count].Date)=#6/12/2005#)) GROUP BY [Cust Count].Node, [Cust Count].Date ORDER BY [Cust Count].Node PIVOT [Cust Count].Services;
I know this is only setup to get items from 6/12/05 but more will be added to the table and I only want the new info for this query. Thank you.
I have a query that I need to always pull data from the newest past 3 months, so if this query were ran today it would take from months 2,3,4 (Feb, Mar, Apr). Any clue on how to do this?
Sorry if this has been asked before but I have searched and couldn't find an answer
I have a string that is set on startup (username) and have another form(hidden) that loads on startup this form contains information on what forms and options the user can access. Just having a little trouble using the string to pull the correct record, the information in the string would be from the primary key field on the table.
On my first form I have a pull down box and when I select an item and click the add button, the item appears in a locked text box above the pull down box. After I click the submit form button, it goes to another form. On the other form is a similar pull down box and locked text box. So far I got the item selected on the first form to appear in the second form's locked text box. Again, the second form also has a pull down menu and when I select another item from the pull down box and click the add button on the second form it deletes the first item selected in the first form from the second form's locked text box. The items selected are put in a table. I was wondering if there was some kind of code I can input so the second form's locked text box keeps the first value from the first form and can add additional values when selected through the second form's pull down box. Sorry if this sounds confusing. I really appreciate your help. Thank You.
I am building a query that pulls from one databases but I am running into duplicates.
Here is the skinny:
From the [tbl_databases], I am setting criteria that restricts a column containing “Visio”, more specifically, “Not Like “*Visio*”. I am also setting criteria that restricts a column containing “OLD” (it is a Yes/No field).
.
The problem is that there are duplicate rows that contain both “Visio” and “Old. So, simply suing my criteria restriction are pulling out the Visio and Visio/Old orders as well as Old and Old/Visio order.
Can I create a subquery that contain the combination of “Visio” and “Old” to restrict the subset from being extracted twice?
I think I have the logic but not sure not to set it up.
Greetings, I have a table with the following 2 fields: Make and Model. When I am in data sheet view I have Make set up as a pull down menu with the various distinct options (i.e. Ford, Chevy, Toyota, etc.). I would like to set up the table so that when I click on Ford, for instance, it will query a different table (carclass) and output only the Ford vehicles on a drop down menu for the Make field to choose from. (i.e. Mustang, Freestar, Focus, etc.) For Model, I have the following code for the Row Source:
select model from carclass where make=make(from the user input of the make).
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your assistance. Cheers. John
