I would like to join 3 values to one new column called incident number. Problem is that one of the value is from a lookup field.
If the table look like
ID Type PNumber
1 INR 2477
I generated Incident number as [ID] "-" [Type] "-" [PNumber]. the result should be 1-INR-2477 but its shows 1-1-2477 because the Type column is a lookup field and INR is on the first value of the same lookup table.
I have two tables. both tables contain an id column (Integer) with the same values. Table1 contains the data I want. Table2 contains one column with boolean values.
So this is what I want (though it doesn't work at all)
FROM [Table1] WHERE [Table2].[BooleanVolumn]=true
So I want all the records from Table1 where the same record in Table2 have a true value in Table2.BooleanColumn.
This is hard to explain, but I hope you understand.
Hello everyone! I've found much use of this forum recently as I am working on a database concerning my work.
I'm not a newbie working with access but this problem seems confusing at the beginning.
I've got 2 tables 1) Information about produced details. Article, Mass etc. 2) Mass constants Mass min. Mass max. Constant
What I need, is to build a query that compares the mass of the detail with the range mass min. and mass max. and shows the mass constant that the detail belongs to.
Has anyone tried to solve this kind of issue before?
i have a database and i need to be able to read all the records from table1 modify the data and output the data to table2 and I would prefer this to be done via just one button in a form so im guessing VBA need to be used.
table1 consists of an ID field, firstname field, lastname field and date field.
table2 has ID field, full name field, date field
so i want to read the first and last name and date from table1, merge the first and last name and then output the merged names and date to table 2.
ive googled around and all ive come up against is recordsets but im having a hard time actually getting them to even work.
In Table Quotation when i select product name from dropdown menu i want all the related information for that product to be visible in Quotation like product id, productdescription & productcost
Table 1 (StaffID) - contains all personal details in the form of forename + surname + position + email + contact numbers ect. Each field/person has an autonumber.
Table 2 (StaffTrainingID) - contains all mandatory training/lectures (18 fields in total). I don't wish to list each staff member again in table 2 so have put a StaffID field in (data type is number).
However, when I try to type in the StaffID number in that field so I can link that person to the relevant training he/she has taken, Access won't allow it.
I want to be able to append data programatically once daily OnClose.Although users can log-off & on as many times,but the Append should be once & after then,update subsequent records for that day automatically from table1-table2.
Table 1: contains staff names and contact numbers Table 2: contains training above staff have been on or need to go on Table 3: contains pc and printer asset numbers of above staff
I used a form and entered some new members of staff in table 1. They got their auto numbers etc but when I open table 2 and table 3 those new members are not showing up in those tables. I have checked the relationship status between the 3 tables and the staffID from Table 1 is associated to table 2 and to table 3.
What's stopping the new entries from showing up in tables 2 and 3 ?
I have a problem I am working and and am not sure what the best approach is, hoping someone can lend me some insight:I have two fields on a table:SerialNumber....LocationI need to concatenate these two (no problem there). However my situation is such that my serial numbers vary in the number of digits. For example:serial - 55124 (five digits)serial - 552356 (six digits)serial - 5514235625 (ten digits)the serial number field is 10 characters and the serial numbers can be anywhere from one to ten in length (this is external data I am working with, not data I created)When I concatenate the two fields I need the location value to always be in the same place, so if I have a location called - TEST - I need the end result of my concatenate query to place the location always after the tenth place of the serial number position, like this:55124_____TEST552356____TEST5514235625TEST(Without the underscores)Don't ask me why...it's a long story.
I have a table that I would like to concatenate three name fields:
Last Name, First Name, Middle Name. I inserted a field between each one to create a space when the fields are brought together. The table looks like this:
Last Name, Blank 1, First Name, Blank 2, Middle Name
When these five fields are brought together they can not exceed 25 characters, so the middle name will cut off when the field reaches 25.
I have a table with two fields that I am wanting to concatenate. The two fields are: Order and Line#. The line numbers are sequential by tens, like this: 10, 20, 30...etc.
So I have order lines that are from two to four digits. Like this: 20 120 1020
All order numbers are six digits. I want to concatenate the order and line (easy to do) my problem is I want to append zeros in front of any line number less than four digits. For example, using the lines above and an order number of 111111 I want the result of the concatenation to be like this: 1111110020 1111110120 1111111020
My database has FirstName and LastName fields. I would like to initialize a new field called UserID with the first letter of the first name concatenated to the last name. I have found references that point to using Left([FirstName],1)&[LastName] but am unsure if this can be done in the table definition or if it must be done using a query. Either way I could use some advise on initializing this fields since I have 3500 registered users. Thanks
Here’s my goal. 1.)I have one column and want to add a 633 in front of if. a.Expr3: "633 " & [Grp] & "" b.This only shows 633 and asks for an entry for the GRP? Why? I want the format to be 633 xxx. If I do add, lets say, 123 in the popup, all of the columns are 633 123. 2.)After combining the following, I want to take that number, and look it up in another query. If the number matches a number in the other query, than I want it to enter the number in column 1. If not, I want it write no number. I have gotten this part to work using an IIF function but I just wanted to let you know what I am after.
I have this query SELECT [9A].DO, [9A].WORK, [BATCH] & " " & [SOURCE] & " " & [NO] & " " & [SEQ] AS RECEIPT, FROM 9A;
It returnes the results like this: RECEIPT 6/2/2003 P 29 10 1/15/2003 P 54 55 3/3/2003 P 42 7 1/6/2003 P 39 35 12/30/2002 P 23 30
What changes are needed to the query to return it like this: 06022003P0029010 01152003P0054055 03032003P0042007 01062003P0039035 12302002P0023030
In other words The date must have 8 charactors with no / Then P with no spaces before or after The next number must have 4 charactors no spaces and the last number must have 3 charactors
I have a table with a bunch of columns (call it Table A), one of those columns being a look-up (foreign key) to another table (call it Table B). I would like to have another column in Table A that is a concatenation of the value in 1 column on Table A with the look-up value from Table B. What is happening though is a concatenation of the value from Table A and the KEY from Table B. I am not aware of a way to get the concatenate to use the lookup value instead of the foreign key.
I concatenated two fields in a query for a cbo, one field has cpt# the other descriptions. CPT# can vary with respect to maybe a four digit, five digit, etc. Because of this, when joining these fields, descriptions are not lined up. Is it possible to fix this?
i'm using Master and Detail table. Master table i have TaskId, ResId where ResId is mapped to Detail table which contains resource working on the task. i want to generate a query where for each task i want to display resource id in single column like below.
Task Id Resource Id 1 222,233,244,255
Do i need to use recursive query or any other method to get results like above.
Hey all, hope this question isn't too newbiefied :D .
I have a database where I must run 10 tests depending on which product I have selected (from a drop box). Each product requires different tests (of the 10) and I am hiding the tests that I do not need after the product is selected. The way I have it set up right now is I have 10 different If statements...one for each test on the "On Change" event.
I have been trying to reduce this down to one If statement nested inside a while loop, but my visual basic isn't very good. I have named the Test buttons Test3- Test13, and want to increment just the number of the test. However, when I try to plug in my concatenated string, I have problems. My code is as follows:
Dim testcount As Integer Dim testcheck as Boolean Dim testnumber as String
testcount = 3
While (testcount < 14)
testnumber = "Test" & testcount If Me.selectedproduct.Column(testcount) = True Me.testnumber.Visible = True Else: Me.testnumber.visible = False End If
testcount = testcount + 1 WEnd
Me.testnumber is obviously not an object on the Form...so I guess my real question is, how do I get visual basic to plugin the variable testnumber so that the code reads Me.Test3.Visible.
I have a table called Export_Car which contains Data such as License Number and Make and Model.I am calling a VBA function (in my query) that I have found online.This works fine and concatanates all the License Numbers for that Dealer.
select concat([first_name] & ', ' & [last_name]) as [Employee Name] from [employee_details]
THe above query is returning the result correctly only if both first_name & last_name fields are not empty. If the fields are empty, it is dispalyingcomma (,).
I receive reports formatted as a .txt (flat) file. Problem: I have to develop a process to manage the .txt files so the data can be separated into its own fields. The layout of the output is as follows:
Date Time User Status Customer Name ID#
06/04/07 15:51 MRF C PTRSNEEO,TBYET L 01234567 Closed By:MRF acvd per xx adv xx of prices on her xxxx XYZASSX TBLTSXS 75ZZ 90/09ds &5.35 XMEPRAZLE CCC 20XX 90/90ds &2.15 UTZXLPIES EX CCC 100XX 90/09ds &2.15 TYERLXP 0.125XX (TPSDTRM) 90/90ds &2.15 MNTYIMPS 90/90ds &2.15 XYZCNITSASLS TTT 20XX n/s gave # to call back mrf
1) The layout of the flat .txt file does not allow it to be parsed vertically. I.e. Vertically: Date and Time overlap the Secondary User information. The User initials are not aligned. Customer Name is directly over the documentation text and of a different string length.
When I try to "cut" the data by the main sections into columns (Date / Time / User / Status / Customer Name / ID#) to import into Access the text in the documentation fields is "cut" into those sections as well.
I want to be able to reconstruct the text sections that are split apart into a single "cell" that can be exported to Excel or used within Access.
2) Also, some records have 1 line of text, others 2...up to 8. Each individual line of text ends up in its own cell. How can I "code" Access to read to the end of the last line of text (last cell) of the record and then concatenate the text in those cells into one continuous string of text in a single cell?
At the end of each record in the report there is a space separating the records.
I realize this is long and complicated, but am lost and the volume of this type of work is increasing. Requests to IS to change the output of the system reports is low priority so I am stuck. Thank you for any help you may provide.
