Cannot Allow Duplicate Records In 2 Tables Based On 2 Criteria
Sep 26, 2005
Dear all,
I would like to seek your help on this problem.
I would like to do a search for my records based on 2 different criterias. If found, the function should just return a boolean value so that I can act further based on the boolean value.
The reason I'm doing this is that I have 2 similar tables that contains EventID and AttendeeID and these 2 tables cannot have the same EventID and AttendeeID. So before I can allow a record to be inserted in the 1st table, it must check that there is no record in the 2nd table that has the same EventID and AttendeID. If there is, then i cannot allow the record to be inserted in the 1st table.
The same thing applies when I want to insert a record in the 2nd table. It must now check the first table.
Recordset.find seems to be only catering to 1 criteria, not 2.
I need developing a new delete query criteria to add onto existing delete duplicate queries for deleting duplicate values. I need the new delete duplicate query to take precedent over the other two so that those values retained in the first query are kept retained after going through the second and third delete queries. Attached is a document laying out the request.
I'm able to import new data from excel just fine, but I can't import updated data from excel due to duplicates not being allowed for a particular field. Is there a way to keep from importing duplicate records based on one field, but still import data from other fields where the information is different from the excel file?
I need to count records based on multiple criteria from two different tables. I have two tables (i.e. "tblTasks" and "tblTaskHistory"). The tables have a one-to-many relationship based on the "TaskID" field. "tblTasks" has a field called "AssignedTo" and "tblTaskHistory" has a field called "TaskStatus". I need to know how many tasks have been "reopened", the "reopened" status is located in the "TaskStatus" field in "tblTaskHistory". I need this count against a unique listing of employees which can be found in the "AssignedTo" field in "tblTasks".
how or what function (DLookup) should I use to prevent duplicate records based on multiple fields? I want to look at data in three fields that can't match existing data in those three fields. It's ok if one or two of the fields match but not all three.
I have 2 tables that have the same structure and same column names - Table A and TAble B. If field1, field2, field3, field4, and field5 match - I want to see that duplicates exist.
How do I do it with 2 tables? I know the query wizard check for duplicates can do it in one table - but I need to compare the two.
i have a data base with a primary key but some records have been added from a excel data base and now the data base has duplicate records with different primary keys. I do a Query looking for duplicate records based on a field not the the primary key. There are 315 out of 22000. I can sort the table and then manually delete the dups. The Query does not allow deleting records so finding the culprits in the full Data base is time consuming. How can i delete the duplicate records using a query? Is this function available hidden someplace in the guts of Access? Seems like this would be a frequent problem. The Microsoft forum addresses this problem and the only viable solution is the manual method, when they get to the Query method it looks like they just forgot what the subject was and tell you how to delete one record if you know what the criteria is. If two non Key fields are Identical then i want to delete one of the records.
I have a table with at least 13.000.000 records. There are many duplicates records... For example
ID Name Family mobile car number chassis Register_Year 1 Roy Jalbout 9999 123456/G ASF4546 2005 2 Roy Jalbout 9999 854658/G GRK554JFJD 2009 3 Tony Elishah 1234 854658/G GRK554JFJD 2012 4 Sam Markos 5478 854658/G GRK554JFJD 2014 5 Roy Jalbout 9999 123456/G ASF4546 2005
As you can see ID Number 2,3,4 have the same car but every one bought from another so it's not duplicates
The duplicates here is the ID's number 1,5. So how to remove the duplicates. I remember you i have at least 13.000.000 records. I try to make a query to find duplicates then i make a copy of the original table and than i should make a primary key then append the data from the original table to the copy table, but here i have more than one criteria
When I made a query to find duplicates the result was 680.000 records and every one have a minimum 2 duplicates an maximum 4 duplicates so it's about 2.500.000 duplicates records at least....
I am not sure if this possible, the methods I have looked up on the Internet take ages for the query to open but I'll give it a shot.
What I need to do is count (and increment) how many records are returned in a query for each person.
So if 1 person returns 4 unique records, in these records it shows 1,2,3,4 in each record.
The way i have tried is by using DLookup to check the next record and evaluate it using IIF but this takes about 25 seconds to return circa 50 records.
I'm wondering if it's possible to create a Query / Macro / VBA or whatever works, to detect the duplicate records in a table and delete them with the push of a command button. Or, even to do this automatically when the database opens using an AutoExec macro or something ?. I'd like for one copy of each record to be left intact in the table.
I'm currently in the process of doing a an overhaul of the database including a table, some odd 17,500 records long.
What I need to do is to create a unique identifier from the existing part number, almost like an autonumber, but it only increments when there are duplicates. What I mean is that there would be for example, there would be five records of say, part 000135.
What I'm trying to get at is, how I would have to code to grab the existing part numbers (all formatted to be 6 digits), add an extra 2 digits to be its unique identifier, and then save it all to a Unique Identifier column, that I created.
An example of what I want is say, I have part numbers 000135 and 000136. The numbers would go up from 000135-01, 000135-02, 000135-03, 000136-01, 000136-02.... The dash is not as important as implementing the 2 digit unique identifier.
I have two tables say Daily and Master, and now I want to update the Daily table and add two additional fields in this table based on the data from the Master table.
I have a table that stores records by "return date". I would like to create a delete query that removes all records that fall outside of the date range entered on a specific form (frmMainMenu).
I can deleted the records that match the form criteria, however that is not what I need. The criteria used to delete the records was:
Between [Forms]![frmMainMenu]![from date] And [Forms]![frmMainMenu]![to date]
Let's say that the frmMainMenu contain the date range of 8/1/05 to 8/10/05, however the table contained data from 6/1/05-8/14/05, I would like for the query to delete all records that have a date 6/1/05-07/31/05 and 08/11/05-08/14/05.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help![/SIZE]
I'm having some difficulty obtaining the answers I want from my query. I'd have been more comfortable using filters in excel to find the answers, but my dataset is too large in this instance.
I devised a query which I thought should achieve the results, but based on a subset analysed in Excel the answers are significantly different.
My table has about thirty fields, the query I've produced is this: SELECT AH_orphans.Product, AH_orphans.Comments, AH_orphans.ESP, AH_orphans.[ESP Parts], <snip, all other fields in table> FROM AH_orphans WHERE (((AH_orphans.ESP)="n") AND ((AH_orphans.FRU)="y") AND ((AH_orphans.EntitlementName) Like "*uptime*") AND ((AH_orphans.Account) Like "nation*") AND ((AH_orphans.Type) Like "Primar*") AND ((AH_orphans.[Is a parent?])="#n/a")) OR (((AH_orphans.ESP) Is Null) AND ((AH_orphans.FRU) Is Null) AND ((AH_orphans.EntitlementName) Like "*uptime*") AND ((AH_orphans.Account) Like "nation*") AND ((AH_orphans.Type) Like "Primar*") AND ((AH_orphans.[Is a parent?])="#n/a"));
What I'm hoping for is the subset which match the following conditions: - ESP field is not "Y". Possible values Y, N, null - FRU field is not "N". Possible values Y, N, null - Only those records from EntitlementName which include the substring 'uptime' - Only those records from Account which start with the subtring nation - Only those records from Type which include the substring primar - Only those records from [Is a parent?] which equal #N/A.
Asking the same questions in Excel I get around 1.5k records. If I use the quoted query on the same dataset in Access I get precisely 11.
Thanks for reading this far! If anyone can spot the flaw/s in my query, or indeed advise that I'm going at it completely the wrong way I'd be very grateful of some advice.
i am querying a single table that contains card numbers and corresponding transaction codes (amongst other things). a single card number can have multiple transaction codes.
i want to select all card numbers that have both 0100 and 0802 transaction codes.
if i use a select query with ="0100" Or "0802"as the criteria, it returns all card numbers that have either 0100 or 0802 transaction types. if i then change the query to crosstab and group by card number, it is clear that some cards have both transaction types.
when i try to change the criteria to ="0100" And "0802" it returns nothing at all.
i'm sure the solution is something really simple - any idea what i'm doing wrong?
Ok. Here's the situation. I have query setup. This query has 2 columns: 1. Agent Name 2. Sale Value
I have 2 tables. Table1: Includes Sales for this pay period only Table2: Includes all Sales From past to present.
We are setting up our system on Tiers and Each sale value is going to change. So, Here's what I need: I need to run an update query that first Looks up all the records in Table1 based on Agent Name. The field that needs to be updated is called SaleValue. It needs to be updated with what's in my Query mentioned above. Then, all the values in Table1, need to be copied (or updated) into Table2. This can be done based on the Primary Key (SaleID), which exists in both tables. So I guess we will need to run 2 separate update queries. Any ideas on how this can be done?
I am trying to create a delete query that, for a given person, deletes records in Table B that do not have a corresponding record in Table A.
Here are the relevant tables:
tblStates holds StateID, StateName, and RegionID (RegionID is a FK to tblRegions). tblPeopleStates is a junction table between tblPeople and tblStates.
It lists states assigned to people. It has 3 fields: PersonStateID, PersonID, StateID.
tblPeopleRegions is a junction table between tblPeople and tblRegions.
It lists regions assigned to people. It has 3 fields: PersonRegionID, PersonID, RegionID.
For a given PersonID, I need to delete records (i.e., states) in tblPeopleStates whose RegionID is *not* in tblPeopleRegions.
For example, pretend that tblStates shows that State IDs 1, 5, and 6 are all in Region ID (i.e., all have a RegionID = 10).
If Joe (PersonID = 200) has StateIDs 1, 5, and 6 in tblPeopleStates, but doesn't have a record for RegionID = 10 in tblPeopleRegions, I need to delete his three records in tblPeopleStates (i.e., the ones where StateID = 1, 5, and 6).
PersonID will be found on [Forms]![frmMain]![subform1].[Form]![subform2].Form]![PersonID]
This seem to be simple for single criteria but i am not able to do it multiple. I want to restrict user to customer list they r able to see in form combo box drop down list.
users are in employee TBL employee group criteria is in tbl_Groups which contains value Admin,Read Only, manager etc employee r grouped through tbl_AssignUsersToGroups. customer r grouped in customerType TBL. i.e class1, class2 etc created EmployeesClassTypeRestriction TBL to store restrictions for employees
Restrictions criteria:
1-employee can view only specific class which includes all customers in that class 2- employee can view only specif customers in a class only. 3-employee can view only specif customers in a ANY class. 4- No criteria No restrictions and can view all customers in all classes( For Admin )
Tried to used Tempvar criteria in customer combo box qry but it works for above point 1 only.
Is there a way to merge duplicate/similar Access 2010 records into one record?
I have an Access table with 1,000 duplicate records, although they are similar and not exact duplicates. As you can see below, some records contain information that other records do not. Yet, the primary key is the same for all duplicate records. I want to find a way to merge data from filled cells of duplicate records into empty cells for each duplicate record. I do not want to concatenate the data (i.e. combine last and first name, etc.). I only want to fill empty cells if there is a match for it in a duplicate record. I will delete the newly exact duplicate records later. Short of correcting the records by hand.
Example
Code: LastName FirstName SSN Address Phone Email Doe John 123-45-7891 123 Anywhere St. NULL john(at)gmail.com Doe John 123-45-7891 NULL (123)456-7890 NULL
Desired Result
Code: LastName FirstName SSN Address Phone Email Doe John 123-45-7891 123 Anywhere St. (123)456-7890 john(at)gmail.com Doe John 123-45-7891 123 Anywhere St. (123)456-7890 john(at)gmail.com
I have two tables that will contain the information that I need the third table that will be used for constant data entry to auto fill in two of the fields (Class, Rate)based on four criteria from the first two.
Table 1 EmpID Name 1 EMP1 2 EMP2
Table 2 (A Subtable of Table1 based on EmpID) EmpID ACDate Class Rate MJob SJob 1 1/6/13 A 15 100 1A 1 2/6/13 B 20 100 1A 2 1/6/13 A 18 100 1B
Table 3 Name WDate MJob SJob Class Rate EMP1 1/7/13 100 1A A 15 EMP1 2/5/13 100 1A A 15 EMP1 2/6/13 100 1A B 20 EMP2 1/6/13 100 1B A 18
I have a report that I am trying to complete based on several queries. I am trying to count the number of records based on certain criteria and using the following DCount.
=DCount("[Calculated time]","IPG1","[Calculated Time] <= 0.04" And [Ship-to party] In ("SN00207PJZ","SN09162XXX","SN09324XXX"))
I want to count the number of IPG1 records that are under .04 and have the Ship-to party of the ones listed. I have tried everything that I can think of to get it to work but can's seem to get it to. I figure it's something easy but I don't see it.
I have a table with Zip CODE field. I uploaded my information to this table form an excel file. There were over 120K rows of data so no way i could do this in excel.
So I found that some of the ZIP codes are either blank or have less than 5 digits.
Can I build a a query with the ZIP code field that will return all zip code records with less than 5 characters or blank. I'd like to repair these zip codes and a update query will be my next step.
I repeat excel is not an option because when I try to sort by the Zip Code column my computer explodes (okay not literally) ....
The Table1 holds data that is a request for a task.
ID, Request, Task_tms (the number of times the task is required to be done)
1, Make a cup of coffee,15
Table2 is my allocation of people to the tasks.
ID, Person, Task_done (the number of times this person has done the task)
1,Sally,10 1,Eddie,5
What I want to do is to limit the amounts of allocation in some way (ie in this case if I have already put 10 for Sally then I would be unable to put anymore than 5 when entering the amount for Eddie.
Additionally if I were to allocate all 15 to Sally then no additional people would be able to be allocated to this task (ID 1)
The two table are in datasheet format linked on a form.
I want the lookup to be performed with criteria based off of the same row that record being selected is on.
I wrote typed out the Columns and rows that my queries return, and attached a screenshot as well.
You enter your phone number which provides you with an indexed location. Based off of that location only certain products are available and I want them to be filtered accordingly. I have it working to some extent, here is an example below:
Is there a way I can make the lookup run off of the location specific to the current row that I am working on?
P.S. Here is a copy of the SQL statement I'm using right now.
SELECT DISTINCTROW [DSL Product CLLI's].CLLI, [DSL Product CLLI's].Speed, [DSL Product CLLI's].CLLI FROM [DSL Product CLLI's], [Copy Of Copy Of Customer NPA-NXX's - ADSL - Data - Internet] WHERE ((([DSL Product CLLI's].CLLI) In (SELECT DISTINCTROW [Location] FROM [Copy Of Copy Of Customer NPA-NXX's - ADSL - Data - Internet] WHERE [Copy Of Copy Of Customer NPA-NXX's - ADSL - Data - Internet].[Location]=[DSL Product CLLI's].[CLLI])));
Which Returns the Following in my lookup field for Products Available.
I want to delete certain records based on the selected date. However, I come across with this is error - Run time error '3464' (Data type mismatch in criteria expression).This part is highlighted in yellow. I even used the debug.print to test out if the sql statement is executed properly.
Code: DoCmd.RunSQL DelSummarySQL
Here is my full code
Code: Private Sub cmd_Delete_Click() Dim DelSummarySQL As String Dim StartRange As Date
