i didn't think things through when i initially created the DB, and created a column called dateOfBirth that holds user entered dates as dd/mm/yyyy.
This causes many query issues, and I would LOVE to have this changed.
Is there a script i can run that will take dateOfBirth, determine the month, write the month as Jan/Feb/Mar/... in a column named dobMonth, and take the day value from dateOfBirth (1-31) to a column called dobDay?
Hello, I'm helping someone can help me with a little problem I am having with a peculiar data arrangement in Access. I have the following scenario. My table is set up with the following columns:
I don't know if it is the right place to post this question, but I know many people here are good at both Access and Excel. The question is:
In an excel sheet, A1: Smith, John A2: 111 Pine St. A3: San Diego, CA A4: (555) 128-549 A5: Jones, Sue A6: 222 Oak Ln. A7: New York, NY A8: (555) 238-1845 A9: Anderson, Tom A10: 333 Cherry Ave. A11: Chicago, IL A12: (555) 581-4914
3. Fill this formula across to column F, and then down to row 3.
4.Note that the data is now displayed in cells C1 through F3 as follows: Smith, John 111 Pine St. San Diego, CA (555) 128-549 Jones, Sue 222 Oak Ln. New York, NY (555) 238-1845 Anderson, Tom 333 Cherry Ave. Chicago, IL (555) 581-4914
This is exactly what I want. And I can do step 3 manually to copy that formula to each cell. But, My question is in step 3. If I have thousands of lines, how can I fill that formula to thousands cells? from C1-C1000, F1-F1000.
I have two separate reports. They have identical formatting. When I click on Adobe: Convert to PDF, this is what happens. Report 1 will convert with light blue in the column headers. Report 2 will convert with grey scale in the column headers. I have no clue as to how to make them both light blue or both grey scale. My boss wants them to match.
Is there a way to use a convert use a "text to column" function in access that separates at a fixed width?I have an access table (that I can't change) that includes the data and time in the same column and I want to separate the two (date and time) in a query. I can't use the "Left" function because my date isn't a consistent 10 characters.
I looked everywhere, but the crosstab function is not the one, as that function will put all other data in separate columns, whilst I only want to have 2 column MaxClaim.
I am trying to format an excel spreadsheet through access, specifically trying to convert a column from text to dates (I receive the data in text format and need to translate it to dates).
Code: Dim excelApp As Object Set excelApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application") excelApp.screenupdating = False excelApp.Visible = False Set excelWB = excelApp.workbooks.Open("Z:DataBasicSMData.xlsx")
[Code] ....
I'm no longer getting an error, but it isn't actually modifying the spreadsheet...
adding columns in Access2013,I'd like to add a column to an existing datasheet and place it between 2 existing columns,I see where and how to an a new column but don't see where I can insert it where I want it.
Below is the code that I have for a query. Currently the GrandTotal Column appears to the left of all the Weekly Columns. Is there a way I can have the GrandTotal column appear to the right of all the Weekly Columns? The weekly columns will expand or contract depending on the dates selected.
PARAMETERS [Forms]![Queries_ReportsFRM]![StartDateTxt] DateTime, [Forms]![Queries_ReportsFRM]![EndDateTxt] DateTime, [Forms]![Queries_ReportsFRM].[FaultCategory] Text ( 255 ), [Forms]![Queries_ReportsFRM].[SystemGroupProblem] Text ( 255 ); TRANSFORM Val(Nz(Sum([Totals]),0)) AS SumOfTotals SELECT [Trends-1-3TON-WEEK].SystemGroup, [Trends-1-3TON-WEEK].FaultCategory, [Trends-1-3TON-WEEK].Problem, Sum([Trends-1-3TON-WEEK].Totals) AS GrandTotal FROM [Trends-1-3TON-WEEK] GROUP BY [Trends-1-3TON-WEEK].SystemGroup, [Trends-1-3TON-WEEK].FaultCategory, [Trends-1-3TON-WEEK].Problem PIVOT [Trends-1-3TON-WEEK].YearMonthWeek;
I have a column that's called "Date" which stores values for begining to end date as 'Text' like: 070314-073114 So I need to split it to 2 columns that has the Start Date as 070314 and End Date as 073114?
This database is still in Microsoft Access, and eventually after cleaning it up, we will move it to SQL Server.
I have an imported table and within this table contains a column that needs to be further delimited. I've read that it is possible to delimit columns using the left, right and mid functions, however, I need to delimit it to more than 3 columns. Maybe an estimated 6.
Examples of the data contained in the column are as follow: ITM~W01GGASPAPP1B:W6400~12.34.56.78~~W01GGASPAPP1B ~W01GGASPAPP1B~ACK~
I need to delimit it by "~". It must also be similar to Excel's text-to-column feature whereby if there're no values between 2 "~", it will be recorded as null.
The main thing I require from each record in the column is contained within the first and second "~" (even if it's null).
I am working with other data that has been created by someone else.
There are a number of columns with the same information in (a serial number). What I need to do is get this into one long column so that I can run other queries from it.
So far I have tried using this SQL:
SELECT A1-TX1 POWER AMPLIFIER 1 FROM SM_Cabinet_T UNION ALL SELECT A1-TX1 POWER AMPLIFIER 2 FROM SM_Cabinet_T
[Code] .....
But it is not working - Is it to do with the field names or am I entering something incorrectly?
I have 4 tables that store information on guest charges (stayinfo/room rate, fuel charges, bar tab, merch charges) each linked to table carrying guest ID's. Is there a way to combine/merge all the tables into one in such a way that all of the guestID's are in one column, all of the charges are in another column etc? Basically adding one table to the bottom of another.
I will need to create a new column in a query with data based off of two columns currently in my DB.
Current fields are: [TestType] & [TestReason]. New TEMP field will be [TestCombo]
TestType has 4 possible option via drop down. TestReason has 21 possible options via drop down. TestCombo will be one of 10 options depending on the data in TestType & TestReason.
examples: (here is an example of how the combo field will be populated. There will be ten total rules like this. one for each possible text option in the combo box.) If [TestType] is "DRUG" & [TestReason] is "PRE" or "RAND" or "PA" then [TestCombo] would be "DOTDT".
If [TestType] is "ALCOHOL" & [TestReason] is "PRE" or "RAND" or "PA" then [TestCombo] would be "DOTAT".
If [TestType] is "DRUG" & [TestReason] is "N-PRE" or "N-OTHER" or "N-FUP" then [TestCombo] would be "NDDT".
The data does not need to be saved anywhere at all in the database, just generated when pulling this query. It will then be exported and dumped into another system.
Thanks. Here is a temp copy of the database with some junk data to maybe make it a little more clear.
