I just had to pull a large amount of data from an off-site SQL server. Due to speed issues, I broke up the data into 3 pulls and exported the data as text.
I have now imported the data into Access and wish to combine the three tables into one. All of the fields are the same, the only difference is that I broke up the pulls by date ranges.
Would this be done via an Update or Append query? AND, how would that query look? Sorry, still a bit new to this. :)
I currently have an access database for tracking company assets and performing maintenance tasks on them.We also have a number of Stores Stock Items that are controlled under a separate finance package.We currently have forms that create individually numbered "Job Cards" in the Job Cards Table..we input the data and manually type into a Text Box the we have used 'X' number of Store Stock 'Item Y'
I have then use a query to export the data i need (Job number, dates, location and Store Stock Items).But I have to manually re-construct the data and items into separate lines in an excel sheet for a paste operation into the finance package (lots of typing of 16 digit stock codes)
What i want is to use a second table (linked via the "Job Card#" key).It will be called "Stock Items" which has a separate field for each of our stock items.the user then just opens second form while creating the job that immediately creates a new record.The user then simply has to put the number of each item used in the relevant text box on the form and close.
example of datasheet view
Job# __ ItemX __ ItemY
2417_____3_______7
Now, I have all of that working as I want, But i nee to be able to combine the data from each field into a single field (either in access or excel).What I want to see is a field containing 3x ItemX, 7x ItemY, etc
if there are none of one or more items, I don't want anything displayed for that item (blank space is ok)I have 30 or more stock items, so there will be 30 or more columns in the table. the actual data stored in the table is simply the quantity of each item used.
this data is used twofold,on export to Excel I can split the data into new cells and it's used on a despatch note that is returned with the item so the end user can see the items that were used in the repair.So it needs to be done upon saving the record, record by record.
I trying to combine three columns that I have into one column without combining fields.
Currently what I have:
(see image below)
What I want:
ID-----MOC
##----name1
##----name2
##----name3
##----name4
##----name5
etc
The list I have will be much longer and will be changing frequently, which is why I can't just go on excel and manually do this.
As the title suggests I would like to combine the data from two tables.
The first table records customer orders in fields - Part No / Quantity / Reqd Date Of Delivery
The second table is an output from a scanning s/w package we recently installed.
This provides the following data - Pack Qty / Part Number / Date Scanned.
The first thing I did was create a simply summing query to add up all the pack qtys for a specific part on a specific day.
Now comes the hard part.
What I want to do is sort and combine both tables in chronological order.
Where the part number & date for an order and a delivery match, I require the record to be combined to one record (in this query).
Where it does not match, then it should remain as two seperate records.
So for example if you ordered 100 footballs for delivery on 11/11, and we delivered 110 footballs on 11/11, the query would return:
Footballs 11/11 100 110
If the delivery was early / late we would get:
Footballs 11/11 100 0
Footballs 12/11 0 110
Now this last bit is where my queries (simple cross table queries) falls down as I only have three options when creating the join properties, ie both match, all from left table or all from right table, whereas I want all from both tables even if they do not match.
Maybe a query is the wrong way to go, but as the table from the scanner s/w is updated on a daily basis it would seem to me to be the best way forward.
Can anyone help?
REPOST from Design Area
Hello all,
I hope that the following explination of my problem in clear...
I have a table with a series of dates in individual fields: Day1, Day2, etc.
What I would like to do now is to combine those into another query/table where the dates are all in one field.
ie:
Original Table
[Day1] March 1
[Day2] March 2
[Day3] March 3
New Table
[Date] March 1, March 2, March 3.
Can you help me figure out how to accomplish this? I greatly appreciate your time and sharing of any thoughts that you have on this situation.

I need to combine data from a Yes/No field such that for any instance of a Yes/True the query will show Yes (checked). Only if there are no instances of Yes should the query return No (unchecked) for the field. In addition, this rule must apply for each individual account number in a [separate] table of accounts.
Tables: (only relevant fields shown)
SavingsClub - AccountNumber (PK), CustomerID, FlagAccountClosed, FlagDelete
SavingsClubAccounts - Account, Reservation, Redeemed (PK=another field)
SavingsClubReservations - Reservation (PK), FlagSpecialOrder
The following query works fine except that it returns two entries for John Doe if his account has entries for both FlagSpecialOrder=True and FlagSpecialOrder=False. You can see in the attached image that accounts 8 and 9 both have two entries each. Because these customers have a special order I want just one one row for each showing Yes (checked).
I want the query to return a single row for each unredeemed account. If there are no special orders then that field will be No (unchecked), but if there is at least one instance of a special order the field show be Yes (checked).
(To put this into some kind of context, customers can place orders which may be stock items or special orders, in which case I need to record the supplier, quotes, delivery dates, etc. In some cases they save for an item and there may or may not be a special order involved. Once the order is fulfilled it is redeemed.)
SELECT DISTINCT Customers.Name, SavingsClub.AccountNumber, SavingsClubReservations.FlagSpecialOrder,
Suppliers.ShortName, SavingsClub.FlagAccountClosed, SavingsClub.FlagDelete
FROM Suppliers
INNER JOIN (OrderDetails
INNER JOIN (((Customers
INNER JOIN SavingsClub ON Customers.Index = SavingsClub.CustomerID)
INNER JOIN SavingsClubAccounts ON SavingsClub.AccountNumber = SavingsClubAccounts.Account)
INNER JOIN SavingsClubReservations ON SavingsClubAccounts.Reservation = SavingsClubReservations.Reservation)
ON OrderDetails.Index = SavingsClubReservations.OrderID)
ON Suppliers.Index = OrderDetails.Supplier
WHERE (SavingsClubAccounts.Redeemed=False)
ORDER BY Customers.Name
I've spent a week trying to solve this and thought I was on the right tack with the following query, which does return a single instance of each relevant account, but I can't manage to combine it into the query above to obtain the complete query.
SELECT DISTINCT SavingsClubAccounts.Account FROM SavingsClubAccounts
INNER JOIN SavingsClubReservations ON SavingsClubAccounts.Reservation = SavingsClubReservations.Reservation
WHERE (SavingsClubReservations.FlagSpecialOrder=False) And (SavingsClubAccounts.Redeemed=False)
And SavingsClubAccounts.Account Not IN
(SELECT SavingsClubAccounts.Account FROM SavingsClubAccounts
INNER JOIN SavingsClubReservations ON SavingsClubAccounts.Reservation = SavingsClubReservations.Reservation
WHERE (SavingsClubReservations.FlagSpecialOrder=True) And (SavingsClubAccounts.Redeemed=False))
UNION
(SELECT SavingsClubAccounts.Account FROM SavingsClubAccounts
INNER JOIN SavingsClubReservations ON SavingsClubAccounts.Reservation = SavingsClubReservations.Reservation
WHERE (SavingsClubReservations.FlagSpecialOrder=True) And (SavingsClubAccounts.Redeemed=False));
Appreciative of any help, otherwise I think I'll end up manipilating the data in code and use a temp table, etc...
I have a table with all repair history in it. Unfortunately, the entry system is such that people can initiate a new record without typing in the correct customer name. So if my customer was "Fry's" it could be entered into the system as "FRYS" "Frys electronics"... etc. You wouldn't believe the ways people enter the same name. Anway, the only thing that links any of these records together is the item serial number. Though one serial number could be under a different name than the other.
Does anyone have any ideas as to how to create a temp table which associates related serial numbers to a single customer name? Even if the user had to select the customer names he want's associated that would be fine.
Note: I should mention that no there is no way to get this changed on the back end. I'm stuck with the tables I have.
Thanks.
I've been given the task of combining data from three locations into one database in Access, something that is relatively new to me. I'm trying to decide whether to have the locations enter data into an Access database or into an Excel spreadsheet at each location. Regardless of the program used to enter data, I would probably like to link each of the files to my main Access file and combine the three into one database there. I do not want the locations to add data directly to the main database if possible.
My question is, would this be done by an append query? If so, how? Also, my thought is that the data at each location would be added to every day. I would need to be able to add the NEW data only to the database without duplicating the previous day's data.
I have created a DB who's sole purpose is to track employee availability and job positions available (a poor man's version of a scheduling database, if you will). I have 2 listboxes on one form. Listbox A shows all the employees available for work, and Listbox B shows the available work positions that require an employee. I am trying to create a functionality behind a button that will allow me to highlight one row in Listbox A and one row in Listbox B to combine the information in a seperate table (still not created) and refresh each Listbox to remove the entries. Similarly, I would also have to create functionality behind another button to undo the above, if needed.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to set up a way to import and combine excel files that contain multiple data sets. So for example, each excel file has a summary heading which consists of the first 3 rows.
Each data set thereafter consists of approximately 50-60 rows of data that I would like. There are approximately 1400 groups of data. Each group has a label which includes the state and the store number. I would like to automate a way to copy the state and store number information down each data set as well.
I have approximately 200 excel files that I want to load into access and have it format it so it basically will end up 1 big file with State, Store Number, relevant information from the data set. I've seen a module do this before, can't remember how to do it.
Is it possible to append two queries? The queries have the same layout and labels...it's just a matter of combining the data into one datasheet view.
The two queries are below:
1)
SELECT prc.Market AS Geography, trp.Product, trp.Indication, trp.[Variable Name], trp.Period, Round(prc.Index*trp.[Variable Value],2) AS [Variable Value], trp.Outlet, trp.Daypart, trp.[Program Name], trp.Len, trp.Creative, trp.Campaign, trp.[Campaign Name], trp.[Media Type], trp.Vendor, trp.Channel
FROM tblTRP AS trp, tblTRPpercent AS prc
WHERE (((trp.Indication)=prc.Indication) And ((trp.[Media Type])=prc.Type) And ((trp.Geography)="National") And ((trp.Month)=prc.Month));
2)
SELECT prct.DMA AS Geography, tv.Product, tv.Indication, tv.[Variable Name], tv.Period, Round(prct.percentUniverse*tv.[Variable Value],6) AS [Variable Value], tv.Outlet, tv.Daypart, tv.[Program Name], tv.Len, tv.Creative, tv.Campaign, tv.[Campaign Name], tv.[Media Type], tv.Vendor, tv.Channel

I have a table in Access 2010 and in one field i have multiple records of the same data as in the next field it has unique data for example:
NameColour
CarBlue
CarGreen
CarYellow
BusOrange
BusPurple
BusRed
I am trying to run a query which will effectively group up the "Name" field and combine the "colour" field against the name using a ";". so it would look like this:
NameColour
CarBlue;Green;Yellow
How i would do this.
I have a database with all the hours employees have logged stored in the database. Our payroll company wants an excel spreadsheet that has very specific info in particular columns and fields on the excel spreadsheet, so I'm trying to design a query which will put the correct info in the correct fields per their system.
The challenge is, I have currently a query with Employee ID, Overtime Hours, and Regular Hours as separate columns.
I need to translate this to a query with a single column for hours and a separate column that designates those hours as OT or Reg, with two rows for those employees who have both types.
Current:
ID / Regular Hours / OT Hours
101 / 70 / 7.5
102 / 30 / 0
103 / 5 / 0
Needed:
ID/ Hours / Type
101 / 70 / Reg
101 / 7.5 / OT
102 / 30 / Reg
103 / 5 / Reg
I don't know how to create a query or a formula in a query to break out each employee row into multiple rows with different data in the hours column. It seems like there's something pretty straightforward that I've done in a similar vein but it doesn't seem to work - I can do the opposite and combine those hours by using the SUM function in a query, but I can't seem to break it out this way.

I am working on a report that has some special characteristics.
Let's say I have a list of groups of Vendors in a table, complete with VendorID. I have 3 other tables that use the VendorID: Complaints, Complements, and Terminations.
Each of these tables has a date that the Complaint, Complement, and Termination notice was received.
Every Fiscal Quarter, a report is pulled that looks back over the 4 preceding quarters to determine if a 5% threshold has been crossed by any of the vendor-groups in regards to the amount of Complaints they received.
The equation used for that is : (complaints/vendors_in_group)*100
It is imperative that the information has the current fiscal year and fiscal month (which I am tracking with functions from MS website), and I need to be able to store the information attached to the fiscal year and month.So when a user goes to the form and inputs the desired Fiscal Year and Fiscal Month, the database can display the 4 previous quarters of information...split into Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4.
What I would like to have happen is to be able to have one table where the information is stored, quarterly, so that it can be retrieved for the report.
Questions:
1. Is it possible to have one line, per VendorID, that has the total number of Complements, Complaints, and Terminations, as well as the threshold percent stored in a table? Right now, I am getting LOTS of duplicates and blank lines when I try to put them all together. It has the right data, but takes about 10 rows per VendorID.
2. It is very important that the total number of Vendors in a group be captured on that quarterly report, so maintaining that number, in the same table, is essential and must be tied to the VendorID.
3. I have looked at Union Queries and Crosstabs, but I just dont know enough about them to make it work.
I have just started using MS Access to enter customers into a database. I constructed the database and delegated the .mdb file to my coworkers so that they can enter their customers as well. Now I would like to combine all the customers entered by all the employees into one general table/database containing all of the customers entered by all of the employees. If anyone knows how I would go about doing that I would really appreciate the knowledge. Thank you.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHello,
I maintain an Access database at my workplace, and have been asked to bring in information from other company locations. Unfortunately, there are conflicts; e.g. part number 12345 might be something totally different at another facility than it is here. My first instinct was pretty obviously to add a Location column and all queries would include that as well as the ID. However, someone else is telling me we should build metadata into a new part numbering convention. An example:
PlantA.12345 (all one field) would be a totally different part than
PlantB.12345
He says it would be very beneficial to ensure that, seeing only a part number, you would know where it was from. I understand his point, but it just seems like strange database design.
Has anyone done something like this, or considered it??
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
I want to join (combine) two tables that have only identical column fields in common into one master table. There is no relation between the two tables. This master table I will use afterwards as basis for a excel pivot table. How can I do this?
Suppose I do not have identical column fields. Is it still possible to combine the tables and that in the new table the missings are filled with eg zero's.
Thx,
Agamemnon
I'm modifying a database for someone in our marketing department. The DB tracks shirts that are given to employees.
The area I'm having a problem with has to do with the shirt style.
The current categories offer:
Long Sleeve (White)
Long Sleeve (Black)
etc..
I want to combine those two so they fall under the simple category "Long Sleeve"
The problem I'm having is that when I do a find/replace, it will allow me to change all of the Long Sleeve (White) to Long Sleeve, but then when I go to change Long Sleeve (Black) to "Long Sleeve", it creates duplicate entries because the same order contained x amount of Long Sleeve (White) and x amount of Long Sleeve (Black).
Is there an easy/ automated way to combine these results into "Long Sleeve" and add the quantity fields together to show the total amount of shirts ordered?
Hello. I have a problem implementing two separate SQL statements in dreamweaver from an Access 2003 database. The queries work fine in Access but is causing many problems in dreamweaver as they are separated.
I very much so need help in combining these two statements to form one SQL statement. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks again.

I am pretty new to access and struggling with a query problem. I currently have a table containing data like:
Name_____________Color Chosen
Bill..............................Red
Bill..............................Blue
Tom............................Red
Mark...........................Green
Bill..............................Green
Tom............................Blue
And I would like to be able to get to
Name______________Colors Chosen
Bill..............................Red, Blue, Green
Tom............................Red, Blue
Mark...........................Green
Can anyone suggest a query to get me this second table. Theoretically the maximum number of Colors that one person can choose is 4.
Many thanks in advance

hi
i want to comibine some queries into one table
the first quierie contains like 6 records and the second one contains 3 records
the problem is is that when combining these columns into the one query the second contains more then 3 records when it should be only displaying data for the 3 bits ?
:confused: I need help desperately. I have two tables I am trying to comine in a query. Seems easy enough right? Yet the simple task has become impossible. I have two tables with the same feild for data, both containing 8 coulmns. Ex:
Table A-January
Columns
A B C
Data: 1,2,3
Table B-February
Columns
A B C
Data: 4,5,6
I'm trying to create a query that will contain the data 1,2,3,4,5,6 but am getting 11111111111,222222222,33333333333,4444444444,55555 55555,6666666, or getting 1,3,5. I've tried refining the data in many ways, even tried just created a table. Hand keying it in seems rediculous due to the end numbers being over 10,000. Any advice??? Please??? :(

ANy suggestions?
table : match
fields : season, matchday, clubA, clubB, goalsA, goalsB, points
I'v filled the table with matches. And also calculated how many points every match has. (1 for draw, 3 for a win). So I have 306 matches, for a league with 18 clubs.
Now I want to make a query that makes a ranking based on points.
I have made two queries.
1. PARAMETERS Waarde Value;
SELECT DISTINCT match.[Club A]
FROM match
WHERE (((match.season)=[Waarde]));
Which lists the 18 clubs distinctively in the season.
2. PARAMETERS Waarde Value, Club Text ( 255 );
SELECT Sum(match.points) AS SumOfPoints
FROM (Clubs AS CA INNER JOIN match ON CA.ID = match.[Club A]) INNER JOIN Clubs AS CB ON match.[Club B] = CB.ID
WHERE (((match.[goalsA])>[GoalsB]) AND ((CA.[Club naam])=[Club]) AND ((match.season)=[Waarde])) OR (((match.season)=[Waarde]) AND ((match.[goalsB])>[goalsA]) AND ((CB.[Club naam])=[Club])) OR (((match.[goalsA])=[goalsB]) AND ((CA.[Club naam])=[Club]) AND ((match.season)=[Waarde])) OR (((match.season)=[Waarde]) AND ((match.[goalsB])=[goalsA]) AND ((CB.[Club naam])=[Club]));
which gives me the total points of a club in a league if I input the season with the value Waarde and the Club with the value text.
How do I combine these two. For every resultrow of (1) I want the result of (2) presented next to it.
I'v tried these two queries and they both seem to work okay.. but how do I combine them ?
