I am trying to find a way to combine multiple rows into one (field). I have 2 tables. One table is data the other table is notes. The notes table has a new record created for each new note. Both tables have the Account Number and and Sub Account Number. I am linking the two tables on these account numbers with a left join normally. There can be records in the data table and no records in the notes table. I guess what I want is a query or sql statement i can use in vba that will display all the data from the data table and all the notes from the notes table in on field.
This data is used in a large report. Right now I have the data table set to the report by itself and code on the report to pull the notes from the notes table using a ADO recordset with a do while that just adds each note to a single variable. This works fine and does the job. The only problem is the time it takes to run the report now. If the report has 1000 records with notes on 90% of them and each of those has multiple notes that recordset code has to run thu ALOT. I use to have all the notes just compile to one field in the data table and the report ran very fast that way. I had to change this since I need it this way as to filter notes by time and archive them after a period.
I have read thru so many posts and see lots of code functions to do this but its just the same thing I already have with the recordset code building the combined field. Any other way to do what I am trying? I think I have just been over thinking this stuff at this point an maybe a fresh set of eyes will help. Below are some simple table layouts for the 2.
**Account Number and Sub ID fields in both tables are not unquie.
Data Table: (this table has alot more data but this gives you the idea.)
Account_NUM - Sub_ID - Data1
1234 | 3 | 123 N Inc.
1234 | 3 | 666 DRN
4567 | 4 | 543 S Way.
7890 | 5 | zzz ABC
Notes Table: (Yes the notes field is a MEMO field)
Account_Num - Sub_ID - Notes
1234 | 3 | notes1
1234 | 3 | notes2
1234 | 3 | notes3
The output I am trying to Get:
Account_Num - Sub_ID - Data1 - Notes
1234 | 3 | 123 N Inc. | notes1 notes2 notes3
1234 | 3 | 666 DRN | notes1 notes2 notes3
4567 | 4 | 543 S Way. | NULL
7890 | 5 | zzz ABC | NULL
Hey all, I'm wondering if creating something like this is too difficult, or where I'd start? (see image attached). Here's kind of the process: Scenario 1 : 1) user selects value from combobox 2) clicks text link ("add") to add value to table 3) value is displayed on form, with "remove" link that can take previously written data out of table 4) combo refreshes, moves down and process can repeat
The values would be added to the table seperated by commas.
Scenario 2: This might be too difficult, in which case I could just use four or so text inputs and the user could type in the values... all written to different table cells. In this case, I'd need to show be able to write all the cells to a single textbox string on a form in the format "cast member 1, cast member 2" etc.
Anyone know what I'm trying to do and that could lend some advice? If there's an easier way to do this, please let me know. haha, thank yoU!
Product. Item Description A It's Red B It's Blue C It's Green D You'll love it
Category. Item Category_name A Cat1 A Cat2 A Cat3 B Cat1 B Cat4 C Cat1 C Cat6
I want to create a query/table that takes all the possible values for Category.Item and mix them into one field seperated by say a comma, so it would look like this:
ItemCategoryConsolodation. Item Desc Categories A It's Red Cat1,Cat2,Cat3 B It's Blue Cat1,Cat4 ...
How does one do that?!
What's it called when you try to do this so I can Google it?
I've looked through like 8 Access books at the book store and none of them address anything like this. Can someone recommend a book that would cover "weird" stuff like this?
I'm trying to set the control source for a control on my report that describes the number of portions that goes into a box. Sometimes there is a specific number of portions per box and sometimes it's a range. When the number of units is specific, then it is entered into the MasterCaseMinUnits Field. If there is a range of units possible than the min is entered into MasterCaseMinUnits and the max is entered into the MasterCaseMaxUnits.
I want my report to look at the mastercasemaxunits, if it is blank it will only display what is in the MasterCaseMinUnits field. If there is a value in the masterCasemaxUnits field, then it will display the masterCaseMinUnits & " - " & MasterCaseMaxUnits. this is the code I'm Using:
So i want a control that matches the column1 in datatable against DGV.Column1, and if value matches only add second column value and if not, then make a new row in DGV. Final decided outcome:
I am trying to figure out the best was to combine fields from multiple rows into one row & field.
Example: I have a table that contains footnotes and products. With a simple query I would get the following 3 rows:
Product........................................... .......Footnote V.I. Capital Appreciation Fund.................3 V.I. Capital Appreciation Fund.................5 V.I. Capital Appreciation Fund.................1
What I want is one row and the 3 footnotes combines into one field:
Product........................................... .......Footnote V.I. Capital Appreciation Fund.................3, 5 ,1
Orders ====== OrderID = AutoNumber OrderDate = Date/Time OrderInfo = Memo CustomerName = Text CustomerAddress = Text PaymentDetails = Text
OrderProductDetails ========= OrderNumber = Number (Linked to OrderID) ProductNumber = Number (Linked to ProductID) Notes = Memo (Notes on product customization)
The OrderProductDetails table is in many to one relationships with both Orders and Products table. If I place an order with 3 products, the OrderProductDetails datasheet would be:
On my report, instead of 3 entries for this order, I would like show just one entry under a column "Products Ordered" ---> Product 1, Product 2, Product 3.
I tried the Concatenate macros I found online, however, I am unable to configure them properly to use for this purpose.
I use following function to concatenate data from multiple rows into a single row/field. It puts a comma ',' after each concatenate. What I would like it to do more is to put 'and' instead of comma between the last two concatenated words. For example: Now it gives me Value 1 but I want to get Value 2.
Value 1: FormRegNo CombinedParticipants DC-190 Political parties, CSOs, community residents
Value 2: FormRegNo CombinedParticipants DC-190 Political parties, CSOs and community residents
Function: Option Compare Database Option Explicit Public Function ConcatField(strSQL As String) As String Dim dbs As Database Dim rst As DAO.Recordset Dim strConcat As String
OK, not sure how to search for this so I am just going to ask. I have two properties that send me excel sheets with the name of the employee, employee number, department, and title. What I would like to do is make this into one list. So just one table that would list these fields and maybe get a new field that marks what property that person works at. Example Jon Smith, 12345, admin, office ( this is from one list) Jane Smith 54321, admin , office (this from the other list)
What I want it to look like (query)
Name, Emp #, title,department,property Jon Smith, 12345,admin,office, prop1 Jane Smith,54321,admin,office, prop2
Can anyone help me with how I can accomplish this?
Here is what I currently have:
10 SQL Pass-through queries to update different Date field (Date1, Date2, Date3, etc.) based on the value of the next date field.
This is how each individual query is set up (there are 10 in total) UPDATE tblApplications SET tblApplications.LastContact = [date1] WHERE (((tblApplications.Date2) Is Null) AND ((tblApplications.[Date Completed]) Is Null));
Here is what I would like to have: (as 1 query)
UPDATE tblApplications SET tblApplications.LastContact = [date1] WHERE (((tblApplications.Date2) Is Null) AND ((tblApplications.[Date Completed]) Is Null));
UPDATE tblApplications SET tblApplications.LastContact = [date2] WHERE (((tblApplications.Date1) Is Not Null) AND ((tblApplications.Date2) Is Not Null) AND ((tblApplications.Date3) Is Null) AND ((tblApplications.[Date Completed]) Is Null));
UPDATE tblApplications SET tblApplications.LastContact = [date3] WHERE (((tblApplications.[Date Completed]) Is Null) AND ((tblApplications.Date1) Is Not Null) AND ((tblApplications.Date2) Is Not Null) AND ((tblApplications.Date3) Is Not Null) AND ((tblApplications.Date4) Is Null));
Can I somehow combine them together like this or do I have to keep them as 10 seperate queries?
Hey guys- I have 2 tables- and need to find the record matches between them via their product code. Table 1 has the code as follows (and is considered 'the Master List')- xxx-xx-xxx Where x is an integer.
Table 2 has split the 3 sections of the code out to 3 individual fields, like this- Field1 Field2 Field3 xxx xx xxx
I need a query that will combine the 3 fields in table 2 to the same format as Table1 so that I can find the matches between them. I know this is a basic question, but I'm a learning newbie. How would I write that in a query? I don't think I want to write the format to the table- just include it in the query somehow... Thanks!
Hi, I wanted to know if it is possible to combine multiple criteria in a single dialog box. Let me explain:
I have a query for which two fields need criteria entered by the user. In design view under criteria I have entered this type of expession Code:[enter criteria] for both my fields. Of course when I run the query I first get prompted for the first criteria and then once I click OK I get prompted for the second...
What I would like is to have a single dialog box with both criteria on 2 lines...
I have two reports that I import into Excel.They both show the locations in the warehouse where our product is supposed to be located. Over years of lack of maintenance they no longer match.What I would like to do is link these two sheets in Access so that the information can be updated as I progress and correct the information.Both have a common row or field called Locations. The problem is that some of the locations doesn't exist in both of the sheets. One of the sheets also has duplicated records for the same location.
I assume that I need some type of query to accomplish this; I have copied and pasted some samples of the information in the spreadsheets as well as the results that I am looking for.
The problem I'm having is that i need to combine 12 tables with multiple columns and not all columns have the same headers. So if a column is present it should be updated, if not it should be added.
The end result should be one column with all records and all columns that exists in all 12 tables.
The tables have an identifier that is the same for all columns (supplier reference).
Table 1 has 56 columns Table 2 has 42 columns (of which some have the same header) ....
(--doing every column manually is something i would like to avoid if possible --)
I get tasked to use access very infrequently but now I have been asked to create a database. I am struggling with combining 2 tables. I have different data on each table however I do have a unique Identifier. So on table 1 I have Bud, his height, weight, etc. On table 2 I have Bud his home address, phone #, etc. I am using name "Bud" in this case as my unique identifier. I want to create a query that gives me Bud, his height, phone # etc. I want my query to pull in all records. Bud may only have info on table 1 and Budette could be on table 2 but not on table 1. I would like my query to include all the unique identifiers and as much info as I have in the tables.
I have create 6 tables for library books (which are differentiated by categories). Each table has different category and unique ID name e.g. F1, F2, F3..(for table 1), G1, G2, G3..(for table 2) and so on. How do I combine all those tables into 1 table for easy search for a book rather than open up each table? Tried append query but its ID run as 1, 2, 3... , not F1, F2, F3 and it only append 1 table, not the rest.
I am trying to create a Dlookup in Access 2010 within a query using query wizard. I want to lookup the tax rate for an employee based on a salary range and their 'tax category' (string). Through troubleshooting I can get the criteria to work separately.
These are: DLookUp("Base","TABWT","[TABWT].[Taxclass] = '" & [FirstOfTaxGroup] & "'")
DLookUp("Base","TABWT",[grosspay] & " Between [TABWT]![Minimum] And [TABWT]![MaxBracket]")
These work and return the correct values for each column/row when I run the query.
However, when I combine the criteria (using the build wizard) as follows:
Expr1: DLookUp("Base","TABWT","[TABWT].[Taxclass] = '" & [FirstOfTaxGroup] & "'" and [grosspay] & " Between [TABWT]![Minimum] And [TABWT]![MaxBracket]")
The Dlookup will returns 0 values but will not give an error message.
I've tried quite a few variations on syntax and quotes and so on. However, it's just not working for me.
My goal in Excel was to combine them all into a single Pivot Table which I did. The issue is everytime I add a sheet I need to redo the Pivot Table, which would be a hassle as I will continually be adding sheets. I'm hoping that there is an easier way this could be done using Access. The individual sheets are emailed to me and then I put them into one Excel file, is there a way to take that Excel file with all the sheets and import it to Access and be able to sort the data as I would with a Pivot Table in Excel?
how to combine 3 field into 1. For instance. I have a customer table with company name, branch, floor, department. then i am gonna create a query called customerextended and combine all these 3 field so that I can select them in the combobox.
