Combining Fields In A Search Query
Jan 5, 2005
Hi,
I was trying to combine some fields into one with a search query,using sql. I was going to search for a postcode then add the first two lines of an address (which are at present in 2 fields) together seperated by commas ",". For instance:
Strd
12 Rock View
Str
Marston Cresent
change to :
12 Rock View, Marston Cresent
I can add fields together with an expression but cannot divide them by commas, any help appreciated.

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.

I know how to concatenate fields in a query but have not done it with memos before. I have three memo fields and I want each to show up in one field with a bullet in front of each. Memo1 may be empty and memo2 and memo3 may have something or memo 3 may have some text but the others are empty so I need to be able to list the memos without the empty spaces. Is a query the best place to do this or in the report and how do I do it?

Hi there,
I will need to create a way of searching through products in a bookstore by product name, Author or by ISBN. Right now, I have designed 3 seperate queries, but to get more marks in my coursework I would have to combine the 3 queries to allow the user to be able search the three fields in the follwoing way:
Search by: Product Name AND/OR Author AND/OR ISBN
in other words, the user could have the option of searching by either product name, author or ISBN OR they could search by each individual criteria, or they could use a combination of two (e.g. Product name and author).
Could someone please help as i gotta get this sorted
Thanks
Dan

Hello,
I need to find a way to modify the following structure:
Name, Page, Grid
Acton Rd, G10, 12
Acton Rd, G10, 4
Acton Rd, G10, 8
Adams Ct, F6, 2
Into something like this:
Name Page Grid
Acton Rd, G10, '4, 8, 12'
Adams Ct, F6, '2'
What is the best way to go about tackling this?? I need to create this in a table so that I can export it from Access and into a .dbf to be used with another program.
Thanks,

I have 2 seperate fields within a select query (In this example Field 1 - Country and Field 2 Number).
I have combined the 2 together into one field.
However a space appears within my results i.e
Field 1 Country Field 2 - Number
----------------- -------------------
England 4
USA 10
Combined fields:
Field 3 - Combined Country + Number
--------------------------------------------
England 4
USA 10
How can I remove this space within Field 3
Thanks

Hay Folks,
I'm having trouble with a subform. My subform (dataform) has a lot of fields. I want to reduce them by combining some fields with an expression. This would save some space on the form.
The problem.
I cant get the expression right to show real values instead of key-values.
Here's the sample expression for the control-field:
=[Roadtype] & [Rnumb] & "-" & [position] & " " & [from] & "-" & [to] & " " & [lanetype] & [letter]
Most fields are of the lookup type, which have a rowsource-expression to show the desired value. I.e. for [lanetype]...
SELECT [qryBPSverhardebaansoort].[lanetype], [qryBPSverhardebaansoort].[Omschrijving] FROM qryBPSverhardebaansoort;
Can anybody help me on track?
Thanks a lot.

I have fields lastname, firstname, spousefirstname, spouselastname -
I would like to display:
Koenig, Mark & Jane (not a problem)
- but in some cases the spouselastname is different so then I would like to display:
Koenig, Mark & Jane Doeinger
This is how it displays with my code:
Koenig, Mark & Jane & Doeniger
I can't seem to get rid of the & between the spousefirstname and spouselastname.
Code:SELECT Potentials.Agent, [LastName] & ", " & [FirstName] & IIf([SpouseFirstName] Is Null Or [SpouseFirstName]=""," "," & " & [SpouseFirstName]) & IIf([SpouseLastName] Is Null Or [SpouseLastName]=""," "," & " & [SpouseLastName]) AS Expr1, Potentials.Address, Potentials.City, Potentials.State, Potentials.ZipFROM Potentials;
How do I get rid of the second &

Hello
I have a political database with a separate field for street number, street name and apartment number. I've been asked to prepare a query that will only list the first member of a household. Example, the query would only show one member from a two person household if they both have the same address. I figured that I would somehow prepare a query that combined these 3 fields in a expression and then display the total row and choose FIRST. That didn't work, perhaps my syntax was off. Here's what I tried:
Expression: (Trim(StrConv([AddressStreetNumber]&" "&[AddressAptNumber]&" "[AddressStreetName],3)
Then I set the Total line to FIRST
Is it my syntax or is it that I can't join separate fields together like you can in a report ?

Not exactly sure if a query is what I need in this situation or if it is what I need how to get there.
In the attached db example on the case form
there is a section for technicians to go in and take credit for steps that they performed as part of the overall case
So clv1 might be done by User A
Then clv2 might be done by User B
But the next case it might be switched.
I need a method getting the sum of the total clv's field for each technician in two different ways
1 would be the total clvs for USer A for the current month,
2nd would be the total for the year- or actually a prompt for a date range
Tried using the query wizard but it doesnt combine the names
Then I tried an individual query on each set - that worked but then I only get the ones in the first column - not all the clvs that they did.
Hope that makes sense - is there a way to do this or am I in the wrong forum for trying to figure out a way?
Well the db example is imb so it cannot be attached
Thanks for any help.

In a form I can easily combine and display the content of two text fields in a third text field with the formula =[field1] & [field2]. Very well. Now I would like to combine and display only the first letter of each of the two text fields. This I would expect to go somewhat like this =(letter,1,1[field1]) & (letter,1,1[field2]). How is the correct formula?

I would like to make a report to show how many employees and which employees are attending to which colleges/universities.
In my data (800 records), I have two fields which is "College 1" and "College 2" for each employee.
There are values that are enter in college 1 for some employees, other employees have the same value that is enter in in college 2. How do I get to show a report that has all the employees who attended the same college in either college 1 or 2?
For instance, this is my raw data:
Name - College 1 - College 2
Bob - University of HI - Honolulu CC
Sandy - Honolulu CC - University of HI
Clare - Kapiolani CC - University of HI
John - University of HI - Windardward CC
I want my report to show:
Colleges -
University of HI
Bob
Sandy
Clare
John
Honolulu CC
Bob
Sandy
Kapiolani CC
Clare
Windard CC

i wish to combine multiple fields (there are no fixed number of fields, they vary depending on the data, so i guess union queries are out of the question) into one large field. For example:
TABLE 1:
PNumber
PName
C1
C2
C3
1
AAA
0.1
0.2
0.3
2
BBB
0.4
0.5
0.6
So i wish to combine the fields C1, C2 and C3 into a larger fields containing all the data. So considering the example above, it should look like this:
TABLE 2:
PNumber
PName
C1+C2+C3
1
AAA
0.1
1
AAA
0.2
1
AAA
0.3
2
BBB
0.4
2
BBB
0.5
2
BBB
0.6
I plan on entering data into TABLE 1 using a form and running a query, or some code etc so that it looks like TABLE 2.

Hello All,
I am trying to figure out the best was to combine fields from multiple rows into one row & field.

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
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm creating a query which pulls together the numerical values of 32 separate fields. Each field has the potential to have a value in it ranging between 1 and 9, but most fields will be blank.
I want to prefix the value (if the value is not null) with a 2 or 3 character-long code relating to the field name.I then want to combine them all together in a query so I can easily copy and paste the output to a spreadsheet.Here is what I have so far, with just 9 of the field names, and it's already looking a bit clunky.
Code:
IIf(IsNull([zam_adm]),"","ADM") & [zam_adm] & " " &
IIf(IsNull([zam_cts]),"","CTS") & [zam_cts] & " " &
IIf(IsNull([zam_crs]),"","CRS") & [zam_crs]& " " &
IIf(IsNull([zam_IPB]),"","IPB") & [zam_IPB]& " " &
IIf(IsNull([zam_opr]),"","OPR") & [zam_opr]& " " &
IIf(IsNull([zam_owl]),"","OWL") & [zam_owl]& " " &
IIf(IsNull([zam_pmi]),"","PMI") & [zam_pmi]& " " &
IIf(IsNull([zam_wl]),"","WL") & [zam_wl]& " " &
IIf(IsNull([zam_sgt]),"","SGT") & [zam_sgt]
The output, unfortunately, is putting spaces between empty fields and I'm not sure how to prevent this in the syntax?

How i would best combine values in a table to produce a 'primary key id number.'
For example: the first letter of a city in the ID and the next number available/auto number - Portsmouth -> P233
I know i can create this in a query however i want it as the unique ID for that record entry in a table. If that doesn't make sense i can try to elaborate some more.

I want to make a form which will allow me to get data from a query and search using 3 fields parallel.
Attached the database in 2010 format.
Password of the db is "nolimit".
The query PTM & Equipment should be bound with the form and
If I enter month, PTM and equipment need rest 2 fields displayed.
Like choosing the above 3 fields from the drop down , the next 2 text box should display the rest two fields.

Hi Everyone,
I hope I'm posting in the right place, I've been trying to solve my problem using queries so I thought it might be appropriate here.
I have a database for a health care service which contains among others the following four tables...
Table 1 contains client details, primary key [ClientID] plus other client details.
Table 2 contains Episode of care details, primary key [EpisodeofcareID], [episodeofcareDate] etc...
Table 3 contains all test results for assessment 1, primary key [CoreID], [CoreDate] plus numerous scores for individual tests.
Table 4 contains all test results for assessment 2, primary key [HonosID], [HonosDate] plus numerous scores for individual tests.
Table 1 is linked to Table 2, and Table 2 is linked to both Table 3 & 4.
I have set up a search procedure whereby the user enters a clients name which then opens a list box of all clients with that name. When the client selects from the listbox I want a second listbox to open which has three visible columns. One giving the date of each episode of care for the client, the second giving the date of each assessment completed and the third giving the name of the assessment carried out.
I'm managing to get the date of the Episode of Care to display on the first visible column but I'm getting stuck on the next two. This would seem to involve somehow combining data from different tables into individual columns on the listbox. For example I need the second visible column on this listbox to list all the dates of assessments for the chosen client from tables 3 & 4. (e.g. [CoreDate] and [HonosDate]). Column three would then give the title of the assessment next to the date in column two. None of the tables have a field listing titles as this is determined by which table the data is entered into. I've been trying to solve this by queries without much success.
Could anyone give some ideas as to how I could solve these problems?
Many Thanks
John

I have a query linked to some combo/txt boxes on a form so the user defines which categories he/she is looking for then presses button and query comes up with relevant results. This works fine if the user inputs information that is actually there, but if they leave it blank it goes all wrong.
The statements I have in the query are as follows:
[Forms]![frmStockControlSigned]![comboSupplier]
[Forms]![frmStockControlSigned]![txtPurchaseOrder]
etc.
I thought the solution may be along the lines of this but it does not work:
=if([Forms]![frmStockControlSigned]![txtDate]=Null,[Forms]![frmStockControlSigned]![txtDate],"*")
basically i want to make it so the user does not have to enter criteria into evey box, thus if every search box is left blank it would show all records "*"

Right what im after sounds complicated but its quite simple.
I have a client database, in this database each client has 3 skill fields, i also have a form with a listbox and an unbound textboxes that are linked to the query so when the textbox is typed in the listbox updates.
Now ive sorted out the problem of not all fields showing it some of them are blank now the problem is.
When input text into one of the boxes the listupdates, now if theres text in two boxes. and theres data in one of each that matches it will show neither, because the query is looking for data that matches in both fields, now i need partial matches so it will give results of data in both fields.
not understanding fully what i mean?
i have zipped my db, if you open the db then open the form 'MainListRecTrades2nd' and fill in data in both primary and secondary trades that matches from the list you will see.
http://awilderbeast.com/CWSystem.zip
The solution i was thinking of would to have 1 textbox that searches all the fields and displays data from any of the fields in the list
Thanks for any help

Hi everyone...
I'm a high school student working on an Access project for a summer internship. I needed your assistance in writing a criteria for a select query.
Table1 has the following fields:
ID, First_Name, Last_Name, Org, Email, Status
Only "Email" is mandatory, ID is autonumber, the rest are optional.
I have to create a query that will allow users to search the table with any of the fields above. A user may search with only one field, e.g. all users where "org" = "YMCA"
Presently, I am using the similar criteria for all the fields:
Like "*" & [Forms]![Search]![txt_FirstName] & "*"
The problem occurs when, for example a record exists with the following -
First_Name = Null or Blank
Last_Name = "Smith"
If you search for "Smith" in Last_Name, then the record does not show up, because First_Name in the record is blank.
How can I alter the criteria for it do search correctly?
I already tried:
Like "*" & [Forms]![Search]![txt_FirstName] & "*" & ""
Thanks,
Gautam

I have two tables. One table is a list of classes with the number of enrolled students:
Class............StEnrolled
English 1A........6
English 1B........12
English 1C........20
English 1D........25
Reading 1.........4
Reading 2.........15
And the other table is a list of "combined" classes (meaning they are, essentially, the same class and should be counted as such):
Class...........CombinedWith
English 1A.......English 1B
Reading 1........Reading 2
Using the first table, I currently generate a query (and build a report) that displays class enrollment levels. What I need is for this query to identify combined sections from the second table and display them as such:
Class........................StEnrolled
English 1A/English 1B........18
English 1C.......................20
English 1D.......................25
Reading 1/Reading 2..........19
