A weird question, maybe an impossible one.
Is there a way do something like an intelligent string compare.
What I have is two tables.
I need to find all matching record in both tables based solely on the name.
However it is very common for minor spelling errors and punctuation differences to occur.
e.g. 20,000 instead of 20000 or Name: Whatever instead of Name - Whatever
Is there any way to do a string comparision on this sort of thing and return a liklihood of the strings being the same? Maybe a third party program that can be accessed via VBA? I must be able to control it by VBA as the program needs to be as automated as possible.
I know this may be asking too much but I would appreciate any input or ideas
Thanks
Hi all,
I currently have two strings that look like this 070707 and 020709. What i need to do is compare these two dates and see which one is greater.
Is there any easy way to do this since the year is just yy instead of yyyy?
Thanks in advance
I am trying to concatinate string in a loop to generate a dynamic SQL to compare 2 tables. But I am not getting the result I want
Code:
Set rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("r1")
Set rs2 = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("r1_old")
columnCount = CurrentDb.TableDefs("r1").Fields.count
strSQL = ""
For I = 0 To columnCount
[Code] .....
I am trying to achieve something that reads like the following
r1.Field(0) = r2.Field(0) AND
r1.Field(1) = r2.Field(1) AND
r1.Field(2) = r2.Field(2) AND
.....
MS-Access VBA code to separate numbers and string from an alphanumeric string.
Example:
Source: 598790abcdef2T
Output Required: 598790
Source: 5789065432abcdefghijklT
Output Required: 5789065432
Hi all,
I was looking for some help. I am trying to setup a table with a field for web address. People are entering www.website.com etc however I need them to make sure it starts with http:// Is their any way I can put validation on the field to make sure that this is entered? Or maybe I could use an input mask?
Any suggestions would be gratefully recieved.

I have a column called CPU_S within a table called workstation that contains sample text like P111 933
I want to use the update command to search the CPU_S column for entries that contain this in there string then add P3 to a column called CPU_N
So far I have the code below but I don't know how to search a column entry for a specific string within a string. Can this be done and how?
UPDATE workstations SET CPU_N = "P4"
WHERE CPU_S = ;
Is there some free software somewhere to allow me to compare the vba in two differnat access dbs highlighting the differances??
THanks

Please help with query/report. I have the following problem.
One student evaluates course before and after. There is several questions related to this evaluation (all are same before and after) and for one question there is 5 possible answer (stored in option group)
I would like to build a report or a query where I can compare data from each student (before and after) for all questions. Is this possible to do in access.
So, StudentA: questionOn: answer: one columen: before, second column: after…. Next question.
Hi there!
I'm bulding this database where the user will have to insert a full phone number. What I would like to know is? if is there any way where Access can pick the first 5 digits of the number to compare with information already imputed in. by example if the user input the number 01942789789, access pick the number 01942 to look for a match? I know I could do with two diferents fields one for the code number and other for the number, but my boss only want one field. Is there anyone that could help me
Thanks

I have a table that shows Part Numbers. Each part number can be listed multiple times depending on how man Build ID's it is associated to.
Example:
Part Nubmer 123456 could be associated with:
Build Id's F187, A910, F001, C810, E010, C809
or it might only be associated to 1, 2, 3, 4,or 5 of those Build Id's.
What I want my query to do is find any Part Number that is only associated with anything less than all six of the Build Id's.
Example:
Part Number 123456 is only associated with:
Build Id's F187 & A910 or only F001 & C809 or only E010.
If this was the case I would like for that Part Number to show up in the Query along with whatever Build Id's it is associated with as long as it is not associated with all six Build Id's. The Build Id Field is also part of the table.
Any help on how to do this.
Hope all of this makes sense.
Thanks!

Situation:
Have 2 Tables that contain the same information, one table was used during registration and had the Data changed

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!

I'm trying to setup a delete query that cleans out the records in one table that are also in another table. I was trying to use the address field (would use name but one table splits it First and Last and the other doesn't) but I just can't seem to run the delete query when using a join
anyone have any ideas on how I could setup this delete query?

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen,
My Access-table contains a Destination and Time field, i want to compare records for Time field with next records of same field.How can I do it..? Let me tell u an exp..
Time field is having a record like 06:23:45 AM for the destination - 'A', so i want to get all the records where the difference is upto 5 Seconds (i.e - 06:23:50 AM) and the Destination is same. It might be possible that there are one more records having time value 06:23:55 AM.
hello, i have checked out the forum for pevious Q's to this problem and found the below.
http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=80692&highlight=compare+tables
only problem is thats its writen at a bit too technicle a level from where i am. i've done some investigation into the problem though.
found out i need to use the docmd.transferdatabase function to import the tables i need to compare into my current db.
my question is this. how does it import them, does it create new tables within the current db or is it put somewhere in temp memory for use only while db is open, not sure how it would work. ideally i would like it to import tables, do the table comparison then create a report of the differences or make a new table showing the differences, then it reverts back to how it was before i imported it. i.e. he current databse is unchanged except for maybe a new report or new table (the results).
thank you for any advice.

Is there a way to compare the value in one field with the value of the same field in the next record? I can do it in Excel by using the following formula:
=If(A1=A2,"Match","No Match")
But I need to be able to do this in an Access query?
Any ideas?
Can someone tell me if this can be done somehow.
I have a date field, ID field and a memo field (I have to have this memo field).
I want to compare the memo fields by two certain dates and find out what doesn't match and if the ID field is blank. I have been trying with quaries but no luck.
I am not sure what forum this would fall under so I put it in general. feel free to move.
I want to compare the database-structure of 2 Access databases. I have a database which is used for developing (added some fields, changed some field lengths, added some tables) and a live database.
Can I export the structure to some text-file of both databases, and use a compare-tool to see the differences? Or are there tools available for such compare job?
Hi,
I need to compare 2 tables with Same Structure in a Database and pull out records that are not matching in both the tables. As anyone done similar task in Access 2002, if so please let me know how this can be accomplised.
