Is it possible to have a form designate which FIELDS to include in a selection query? I know that I can determine criteria and such, but i want the user to be able to generate a report based on the query select a, b, c from blah, or if they wish, just select a, b from blah...
View RepliesIs it possible to add a field (i.e., variable) to a query (or SQL programming) based on a form selection?For instance, if I use a form to allow an end-user to specify which fields they wish to include in the query (essentially creating a UI for the query builder), how would I go about creating the query/SQL or updating the query/SQL?
View 3 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to have the user select which field is added to the query through a parameter? In my query I have a table where each record has a part number and has sales number for each month. When the user runs the query I want them to be able to select which month is returned.
My table basically looks like this:
PartNumber,Jan,Feb,Mar,Apr,May etc.
01PartNumber,15,20,30,25,28 etc.
02PartNumber,12,14,12,16,20 etc
I want the user to enter "Mar" when prompted and return the parts numbers with values from "Mar".

I have a table with 2 fields:
CODEDATE (text)
DATE1 (date)(dd/mm/yyyy)
RECORDS SAMPLE:
Code:
-------------------------------------
CODEDATE DATE1
-------------------------------------
TT-10/10/2013 01/01/2012
ASDFDFDF 01/02/2013
RR-18/06/2012 05/08/2012
------------------------------------
I need to extract the date from CODEDATE field if the "-" character exist in or from DATE1 if the character "-" is not present in the CODEDATE field, then filter the query on the date found.
I wrote that:
Code:
SELECT IIf(Mid([CODEDATE],3,1)='-',Mid([CODEDATE],4,10),[DATE1]) AS DateFound
FROM MyTable
WHERE (IIf(Mid([CODEDATE],3,1)='-',Mid([CODEDATE],4,10),[DATE1])
Between 1/1/2013 And 31/12/2013)
The query above extra extract some records without sense for me, I tried many other syntax without success.

Listbox created: List62 (I know I need to rename it, but for now)
Multi-select: Extended
Row Source Type: Field List
Row Source: qryFieldList
Open Query: qrySelectedFields (I added primary key to first column, just to have at least one destination field).
Goal: to select multiple fields within listbox, click on command button to open query "qrySelectedFields" with selected fields from list box.This is the code I have on the command_click:
Dim varItem As Variant
Dim strSQL As String
If Me.List62.ItemsSelected.Count = 0 Then
MsgBox "Please select one or more fields.", vbExclamation, "Healthcare REIT"
Me.List62.SetFocus
End If
[code]....
It does absolutely nothing - doesn't add the fields to "qrySelectedFields", doesn't open the query, notta.
Im trying to make a find page that looks up 7 fields and after reading about the Dynamically search multiple fields i downloaded the sample and changed a few things. But I have a few problems .
1) If you open the FRM_SearchAll from the navigation pane , it will not show the detail form by dbl_click or view button also will not show the picture .
2) If you open it the navigation form , it has the following error
Forms!FRM_SearchMulti!SrchText before you start it.
3) As above it will not show the detail form by dbl_click (it has Error)
Run time error : 3075
Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression '[Food]Snack a Jacks'.
4) If you try to view detail form with the button (the error comes up)
Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression '[Food]Snack a Jacks'
5) also will not show the picture .
I want a search box on my db that will locate data from certain fields within my database. Today i came across the posting by John Big Booty with the above title and what he has done is exactly what i require.
Now i have followed all instructions to the letter however i keep getting an error which i have attached ......
The code currently works for searching data on ONE single table.What if I wanted it to search data simultaneously on TWO similar tables? I was messing around trying to build up a query that uses both tables but it failed.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI run a charity pre-school and have invoices to send out. Some of the parents cant afford to pay the whole amount in one go, so we give them a payment plan. e.g. If an invoice is for a 6 week term we let them pay weekly. So I have a check box on my form to say "are you on a payment plan".
Then - I have an free form input box..."How many payments..." and the answer may for instance be '6'.
What I want to do now is dynamically create/display 6 date fields, to record what the agreed payment dates are.
but maybe the answer is 4, or 7, etc. So I need to create/display the correct number of payment date fields.
I want a help on this complicated issue:
On running a select query with "a*" of names in a table:
Results are : America, Argentina
Now I want this to dynamically create 2 text fileds in a form and fill America &".snp" in first and Argentina &".snp" in 2nd filed.
It is not regarding subform to display data of query result.
This I am going to use to add attchment for outlook email session as being discussed in my Email from access with attachment thread.
"Dynamically search multiple fields" using my own customer data.
I'd like to add in additional searches as what he has will let you do one search but I'd like to, in his example, search on vintage and state, or the like. I assume Id need two multi-searches for this.
Right now the data is in excel so I have a completely blank page to fill.

It works without the "setFocus" for the Listbox except it jumps to a record after the very first character is entered instead of narrowing down as characters are typed. If I leave in the "setFocus" I get run-time error 2110.
Hi,
I have a requirement to filter some queries periodically on the date field.
What I want to do is create a form that lets you choose which query to use and filter and not create alot of single forms.
The filter will be only be applied whilst the form is open.
Cheers

I need to allow a user to select criteria as part of a query.
Running the query manually I would type in either:
"Core Stock"
OR
<>"Core Stock"
in the criteria field of the column.
I tried using the following parameter in the design grid:
Choose([Select 1: Core Stock 2: Not Core Stock : ],"Core Stock",<>"Core Stock")
The "Core Stock" option works but the <>"Core Stock" returns no records.
I would prefer not to use a form if possible . Any ideas ?
Regards
David
Hi
I would like to set up a query that uses two tables. One of the tables, the 'main table', wil be used every time the query is run. Each time a new record is created in the main table a 'new table' is created containing a subset of data - the name of this table uses a ref ID from the main table. I would like to be able to select which 'new table' to use in the query as part of a parameter query.
eg. Main table record 1 has a field JID of J0001 and a corresponding 'new table' titled J0001. record 2 in main table has JID J0002 and creates a 'new table' J0002 etc
so I would like to set the query up such that when a record is chosen in 'main table' the query knows the name of the 'new table' corresponds to the JID of the record in 'main table' ....
Have seen the same question asked but no answer - is this possible ?
any pointers appreciated..

View 10 Replies View RelatedI have an option group that lists a variety of categories which I want to query on.
I know that the option group only returns values.
In the Option Group, On Time = 1, Over Due =2 ,,,,
I am using a Choose function in my query. That is working fine. But ... I would like to have a last choice called "All" such that when selected all data is shown (i.e., On Time, Over Due, ....).

Hi All,
I am new to Access and looking for some help.
I have a query, which reads the combo box value and loads the result in Text box. It works fine when I load the Form.
Now here is the problem… If I select another values from combo box the query result remains the same (in text box). How do I make it work dynamically?
So when I select new value in combo box, the resulting query gets updated in textbox.
Thanks
Is it possible to duplicate a record with selected fields, to be copied into a new record. ie if there are 10 fields, i only need 8 of them (no need for timestamp field etc form existing record).

I have a query (qryGetRemoteStuff) like this:SELECT * FROM Table1 IN 'k:projectssomedatabase.mdb'I have several databases where i use this technique. I don't want to link these tables to my database.
According to the properties list, "Source Database" is used to store this path to my remote database.
So far so good.
When the path changes i am in a lot of trouble, that is why i want to change the path of this query dynamically. I don't seem able to change this property.
Is this possible? How?

I'm intending to make two extra fields open up if a particular value is selected. Just as a simple example:
Field: Type of Item
Possible Values: Alcohol, Beverage, Cutlery
So if either a beverage or alcohol is selected, I would like a new field to open up. For both Alcohol and Beverage, I would like "Content of bottle in mLs" to open up. For Alcohol, I would also like "Percentage Alcohol content" to also open up.
So basically, if a specific value is selected, I would like extra fields to come up. I'm not sure if there's any simple way to do it, or whether it requires VBA coding, but either way if it is possible I would like it to be done.
1) How do you make an input mask enter from right to left? For example, if post codes can either be 4 or 5 digits long, I put 90000 (requiring at LEAST 4 digits) but if you start entering data, it starts from the 9. Would it work if I did 00009?
2) Is there any way to make a form go through a progression of screens rather than all the input fields being on the one page?
I am new to access. I have the following code to lookup associated fields with a CourseNumber that is selected from a combobox. The information is then stored in a CourseEnrollment table linked to student info.
The CourseNumber and associated fields are located in a LU_CoursesOffered table. The LU_Courses Offered table has been populated by choosing associated data from combo boxes based on other LU tables.
I am getting the primary keys returned for the associated data rather than the text stored with that key.
Private Sub Combo103_AfterUpdate()
CourseName = DLookup("CourseName", "LU_CoursesOffered", "CollegCourseNum = " & Nz([CollegeCourseNum], 0))
LevelSection = DLookup("LevelSection", "LU_CoursesOffered", "CollegeCourseNum = " & Nz([CollegeCourseNum], 0))
AcadGrad = DLookup("AcadGrad", "LU_CoursesOffered", "CollegeCourseNum = " & Nz([CollegeCourseNum], 0))
Instructor = DLookup("Instructor", "LU_CoursesOffered", "CollegeCourseNum = " & Nz([CollegeCourseNum], 0))
End Sub
I can create a select query with a combo box in it by changing the property of one of the fields - making the display control to combo box and adding the values. No problem there.
What I want to do is to be able to create a query dynamically from vba using a CreateQueryDef statement.
The problem is that you can only pass an SQL string to CreateQueryDef, and the combo box values are not part of the SQL code, but are saved with the query (presumably the same way column layout gets saved).
Is there a way to create a query with VBA and include non-SQL layout criteria so I can have combo boxes?

First off I apoligise if this is a clear answer. I have looked on the internet for the last two days and can't seem to find this anywhere, either that or I am just entereing the search parameters in wrong :confused:
I have filtered selection in a form which I want to export to excel.
Simple enough ;) : Created a macro with the export to command. This dus everything I want to do.
Well not quite. :rolleyes:
How do I select the fields I want to export.Something like Select Id, name, adres from query soandso
Hopefully there is a simple solution to this. If there any existing posts. Could you post the link for me.
Thank your for your time,
Kind regards,
