Hi
I am trying to read a large file and to check if the phone number field is valid.
If there are more than 6 "1"s, "9"s or "0"s in the field, then I want to replace it with a null otherwise, I will treat it as a valid number.
Can you help?

Hello
I have two tables with names of people in different forms.
table1 : [name] can be either in the form of :
- firstname & firstname surname
- surname, firstname
table2: [surname]
I'm trying to select all the records in table1 where [table2]![surname] is part of [table1]![name]
I've tried using
Like "*"&[surname]&"*"
This returns everything rather than the similar names.
I think this should be simple but can't work it out.

Hi,
i want to set values (=numbers) in fields of a table by selecting check-boxes in a form (based on the same table).
as checkbox1 =1
checkbox2= 2
etc
If the box is checked the value should be entered, if unchecked the value should be removed.
Afterwards i want to show the sum of these values in another field in the same form.
I suppose this requires VBA. Could anybody help me plz ?
Thx
I've had a search in the threaqds for an answer but cannot find anything specific, plus this one has stumped me.
What I need to do is check if a certain field has a value if another field has a specific value ??!!?
Ok so if Combo Box 1 is set to 1, then Combo box 2 must have a value selected.
If ComboBox 1 is set to 2, then Combo Box 3 must have a value.
for any other value for ComboBox 1 box 2 & 3 do not require a value.
If either of these statements are not correct then a message box should come up
Any help would be greatly appreciated

I have a field in a table that I'd like to extra the texts from. The are stored in below format (separated by colons). They don't always the same amount of characters and not all of them have the same amount of texts.
Some may only have Text1:Text2::, while some may have Text1:::Text4.
Text1:Text2:Text3:Text4

Code:If i = "" theni = "1" ElseEnd If
But this is not working?????
Morning all,
Quick question... I figured out how to make all the searching items work... individually. The problem is is that I want to be able to search with two fields at a time. For example, say i have mo, date, job, pay and i want to seach for the MO and JOB and query the results accordingly. I can't get it to do that. Would I have to make a large If statement? I'm not entirely sure. Also now my problem is that it won't execute my first if statement or I should say it ignores it all togeather. I know it executes the code in the order it is written. If someone could shed some light I would be much apprecative. As always here is the code and attached is the program. What I'm working on is in the query table.
I also would like to be able for it to say if the fields MO and JOB do not comeup witha result for a messege to display there is no result. Or if the field is null not to do anything. I tried doing that in some of my code to no success perhaps I did somthing wrong.
Have a great day!

The following code doesn't check null condition in Scannedby field. The scannedby has text data type. The code gives me all the data where scandate=20130722 but doesn't check that scanned by can't be blank.
Code:

j = rs.fields(0).Value
I've got a database with an 'address 1' field. Sometimes if it's just a number, excel formats the field as a date. Is there anything to check the field to identify any that are showing as dates as opposed to just normal fields. For example identify all customers who have some variation of dd-mm-yyyy in the address-1 field.

The form is bounded to a table
I used this code

MsgBox ("number existed")
Me.Telegram_Number = ""
Else
End If
everything is ok but if the data is existed the database show the message and clear the field but i'm getting a Run-time error
'-2147352567(80020009)': the macro or function set to the beforeupdate or validationRule property for this field is preventing [ISF] from saving the data in the field
I guess the problem because the form is bounded to a table so he will save automatically
My solution is to unbound the fields and save the data via vba but is there any solution with a bounded form???
I have a field 'Payment Types' with values (Cash, Cheque, Debit/Credit Card) and a field 'Payment Received' which is Yes/No.
When putting the order through the user selects the payment type and ticks a box if payment has been received.
On a report for delivery drivers, the owner wants it simple for the driver... he wants all the payment types listed with a checkbox next to each one, then wants the appropriate box ticked if payment has been received.
So I need something on the report (or underlying query) which ticks the appropriate box, i.e.
If payment received = true then payment type checkbox = true.
Or should I put the payments into a separate table with both fields so multiple payment types can be marked as paid?
Hi,
I have 2 strings:
str1 = SELECT Field1, Field2, Field3, Field4 WHERE (Criteria1)
str2 = SELECT Field1, Field2, Field3, Field5 WHERE (Criteria2)
I want to show in listbox only "Field1" from str1 and str2.
How unit 2 strings?
Thank You in advance.
Hi all.
I have 2 strings:
strSQL1 = SELECT FieldA FROM table WHERE FieldA = xxx
strSQL2 = SELECT FieldB FROM table WHERE FieldB = xxx
I need unit this two strings to third string strSQL3.
I must have result StrSQL3 = SELECT FieldA, FieldB FROM table WHERE FieldA = xxx and FieldB = xxx
Is it possibly unit strings (not Select Query)?
So I need to know this. How do I:
*Add 2 text fields together with a space between?
*Truncating field 1 to the first character and field 2 to the two first characters?
Sorry for my noob questions :D

I am normalizing data from a spreadsheet of just over 4000 records. The spreadsheet has a "Model" field that contains both the model number and a model description, separated by a space. I would like to split this field into two different fields: "Model_Number" and "Model_Description". The model number is one word of varying lenths.
Any ideas?
Hello,
I am having trouble with a query. I have a number of blanks for a field and I tried using the expression from the help:
=IIf(IsNull([fieldname]),"Unknown",Format([fieldname],"@;LS"))
But my result set is still a lot of blanks.
This is the expression I was trying to use:
IIf(IsNull([tblMainpersondata]![MailingAddrLine2]),[tblMainpersondata]![MailingAddrLine1],[tblMainpersondata]![MailingAddrLine2])
On most of these, the result was a blank, instead of MailingAddrLine1. If there was visible data for MailingAddrLine2, it appeared.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Hey Guys,
Just wondering how I would go about comparing two strings, and spitting the results out a similarity percentage?
E.G. (String 1) Postal Address: "11 John St"
(String 2) Street Address: "11 John Street"
(Output): 80%?
Cheers
Hello,
I would like to put a restriction on the SQL statement such that if one particular field contains the character "MO", then we take in the record, else we ignore them. May I know how could this be done in the "WHERE" part of the SQL statement? I do not think SQL would read things like Instr(). Thanks!
Regards,

This is a database that was handed off to me for upgrading.
The person who initially created it made the Name field in the table contain the entire name... So a single entry in the field looks like
CHRIS R LOUNSBURY
The table is in the attached table. This is merely a sampling. The main table has over 3,000 names in it. Is there an easy (or maybe not so easy) way to automatically parse that data and split the names into their own fields.
An example would be the string CHRIS R LOUNSBURY. Run code which takes the string left to right to the first blank space, and splits it off into First Name field. Take the last part of the string (right to left) to the first white space and put it in the Last Name field.
Is this possible? Or do I need to find myself a temp employee to data entry all this over again
Hi all
I have a Row source string which I use quite often. Currently, I declare it in each procedure and copy and paste it in. The problem is when it needs changing, I need to change it in a billion places.
can I declare the string as public and set it as public too so that I can just make a reference to it rather than copy and paste entire slabs of code into each event??
perhaps I need to place it into a module?
Suggestions are much appreciated.
Access does not have an option to sort alphanumeric strings properly with the result that sorting a column with the following (sort of) data is almost impossible.
Flat A1
Flat A10
Room A13
Room A2
Room A21
B5
Flat 5b
10k1
10 k3
10 k12
10 k20
10 k2
etc
I need to be able to get addresses sorted correctly and they always have a mixture of alphabetic and numeric characters.
The steps I have followed to try and achieve this are as follows:
Create a matchfield containing the data for sorting (typically the street number followed by the flat number/name)
Split the matchfield into separate fields where there are spaces. "Room A13" becomes "Room", "A13"
Then split the fields/columns by separating the alphabetic and numeric portions - i.e. "Room A13" becomes "Room", "A", "13". This I have not been able to achieve successfully.
(Thinking about it the first step of separating by spaces is probably not necessary. All that is needed is to separate the numeric and alphabetic data)).
Once you have separated the data into alaphbetic and numeric content a sort is straightforward.
Why can't Access cope with what I would regard as a fairly basic requirement (i.e. to be able to sort alphanumeric strings correctly).
Does anyone have a suggestion how I can solve this problem until Access is improved?
