I posted a few weeks back to see if I could get some advice on adding up ethnicities [from a combo box] in a query.
My advisor, in all his wisdom suggested this code:
SELECT [Ethnicity], count([Ethnicity])
FROM Clients
WHERE [Ethnicity]='Latino'
GROUP BY [Ethnicity];
This worked beautifuly! However, I also need the query to count the other selections too: Asian, Caucasian, African-American...having the number of all these ethinicities added up on one query report is ideal.
How do I incorporate this into the code? I tried some possibilities and have failed...
This im sure is a easy question but I am just trying to learn access so I am having a few problems.
I have made a form that contains 2 comboboxs and a listbox.
How can I use the 2 combobox to filter a table and to place the information into the listbox. Is it possible to use either 1 of the combo boxes or both to get the filtered result.
I created a navigation form on which I put a form call [frmAnimal Setup].
I then placed one combo box on the Navigation frm Header. I have bound it to its source and it actually queries the tbl and show the right info. However when I select one, it will not let me.
In addition, [frmanimal setup] will not allow me to select a breed although it does query the tbl and shows the right information.
I need help on this, from what the best concept is, to what I need to look into using:
I store Quote data from phone calls into tblQuotes. There is a seperate table that holds much of the same information except that it is for actual orders called tblOrders.
As far as function goes, I have each working much the way I need it to except for one thing... If a sales person is on the phone with a customer with a quote already in the system, right now they re-enter the data into the Order table. Most times, the order is what was quoted, but maybe with a few small changes (so I will wnt to keep a historical record of the quote). How could I copy the contents of the quote recordset into the recordset for an order, where all the sales rep does from there is edit the quote to the actual order?
Would I use VBA or an update query that is executed via VAB? Honestly, I am unsure how to do this at all, I hope someone has seen this before and has a good suggestion...
I have a report due the first of each week in which I need the cases open and cases closed for the previous week, the week two weeks prior and the 2007 and 2006 year to date on two different types of cases. I have a case management table with a field for Type of Case, date assigned and date closed that I uses in my queries. Presently I have two query, one that generates only Type 1 cases from the Case Management Table and another for Type 2. I then use the Type 1 Query in another query that limits the results for Type 1 cases to those opened last week, one for those open two weeks ago, one for 2006 YTD and one for 2007 YTD. In these 4 queries I have one field [Type of Cases] and I have the query count. I then do this for Type 2 cases and then go through the whole process to do Closed Cases. All my queries have criteria to automatically filter the dates to the time periods mentioned above. I then have one report query that I put all the number in for my report. This query has 16 fields with the numbers for each period, last week open and closed, 2 weeks open and closed, etc. I then generated a report that takes these numbers from my report query and puts it in a report format automatically. As you can imagine this takes some time to go through each query to generate these numbers, so I was wondering how I may do this differently. Also, I have experienced a problem when a field produces no records I get a blank sceen with nothing under the Count of column and get the same thing for my report. How can I fix this.
I am trying to use a combobox called Manufacturer to select which table the combobox called Model gets it's rowsource from using the code below.
Code:
Private Sub Manufacturer_AfterUpdate() If (Me.Manufacturer.Value = "Siemens") Then Me.Model.RowSourceType = "Table/Query" Me.Model.Recordset = "SeimensTable" Me.Model.RowSource = "SELECT Model FROM SeimensTable" Else If (Me.Manufacturer.Value = "Samsung") Then Me.Model.RowSourceType = "Table/Query" Me.Model.Recordset = "SamsungTable" Me.Model.RowSource = "SELECT Model FROM SamsungTable" End If End If End Sub
But when I run the form and select Manufacturer. Combobox Model remains empty. tell me what I'm doing wrong?
How would I modify multiple comboboxes in subforms at the same time. For example.. In main form ComboboxA user selects 1992, Combobox1 in subform1 is also changed to 1992, as well as Combobox2 in subform 2.
I have 2 comboboxes, the first one is called "activity", whereby I have 3 options to choose from, and the second is called "level".
When I click an "activity", for example Drawings, I want the "level" combobox to list a unique set of options for that category. and if I click on a different "activity" for example Planning, I want the "level" combobox to show a completely different set of options.
If anyone can give me any help on how to do this then I would be very grateful!!
I've tried searching the forums and haven't found quite what i'm looking for. I would like to be able to change the source for a combobox based on another combobox. The simplest way i can summarize that is i want to be able to choose A or B, depending on my choice i want another combobox to display all the values that A or B can have.
I've read some tutorials on this sort of thing, but I can't seem to piece it all together to achieve what I want.
I have a table Products that contains the fields Product, Size and Brand. I also have a form, frmProducts, that has a combobox linked to each of the fields in the Products table. I want to be able to select a product from the first combobox, tab to the Brand combobox and have only those brands associated with the product already selected.
This is how I think it should work: 1.ComboBox1 selects productA 2.ComboBox2 takes its options from a query that searches Products table for all instances of productA and displays all available brands. brandA is selected. 3.ComboBox3 get its options from another query that searches for all instances of productA that also have brandA and displays all available sizes.
What I'm having trouble with in particular is passing the data between queries. For example, I can't figure out how to tell the query to search for all instances of productA when its defined by the first combobox. Do I have to store it as a variable somewhere?
Would you be able to have the same databasing power in vb.
a company offered me a job but they would prefer if all my programs where in vb, but i have never even lokked into it. i know there are a few extra thing like menus and stuff like that.
Would i be able to say that since i know vba i would be a ok candited?
I have a query that creates 8 columns, exactly as I want. However, the information in the last 2 columns, Dbk and Com, I'm trying to get on the same row. Right now, when the query is run, the Dbk amount shows up on one row and the Com column is blank, then the next row shows the Com amount and the Dbk column is blank. Is there a way to get both values to show on the same row? Thanks.

I am new to this forum, so forgive me if this question has been asked before
I needed exact information about the way the 'like' operator works, so I pressed F1, typed 'like' in the "Answer Wizard" and was told to "rephrase my question". :eek:
The index was slightly more helpful as it obviously contains 2 topics with 'like_operator', but choosing them does not reveal anything. :confused:
Where can I find info about such things? I also need to use an operator called 'contains' which I have used when working with SAS, but appearently it does not exist in Acccess or it has another name. Has anybody heard about it?
I have 3 tables: tbl_1, tbl_2, tbl_3 All 3 have the same 3 columns: name, email, code
Can I write some queries or a code or something that can create one "tbl_MASTER" with the same 3 columns?
Ex: tbl_1 - 3 records tbl_2 - 7 records tbl_3 - 21 records
tbl_MASTER - 31 records. Now the information in the other 3 tables changes everyday so I want it to all be automatic, I dont want to execute 3 different queries or anything like that. Is this doable. Thanks.
Can someone point me in a direction to get some good information on how and when to use recordsets? Ive gotten by without having to use them for the most part up until now.. but the inevitable has happened and i figure i might as well learn to use them
for the most part i know When to use them, but its getting into the how and where to use it for the most part.
simple examples or even perhaps a tutorial would be great! thanks guys
Guys i have tried to seach the Forum but can't find a solution to my need.
I would like to get a collection of table names from another DB, what i am trying to do is populate a table with a list of table names that the front end links to and their paths once a user has selected the data file location.
Instead of me having to force a user to place the DB files in a location of my choice when the database first loads it will prompt the user to select the location of the data file then (this is why i need the above) populate a table with a list of table names and their source, then establish a link to them for the front end to work.
Also if i ever send amended DB files or they move the location of the data files they can automatically re-establish the linked tables.
I have been struggling with a project and cannot seem to get a solution. The following is a bit drawn out so I apologies, but if anyone can help - (or tell me if it is not possible) I would be grateful.
I have a club DB with 42 members, and have a table with members details etc.
They meet 12 times a year and I have a table with details of the meetings (each meeting is a separate record with date, venue etc)
I use forms to view the records.
What I would like to do is be able run a query/report to see who attended each meeting/or how many meetings an individual attended over the year. (I have not got to the query/report stage yet, as I cannot figure out how to set up the information).
(I need to know each year how many meetings an individual attends)
I thought of putting a list of the members and a tick box next to their name on each of the 12 meeting records, (which will update when members join/leave) then be able to run a query with the name of the member, and the dates (or number) of the meetings attended, but don'y know how.
At the moment all I can think of is a memo field, and just type in their names on a specific meeting record.
Say I have a table/qry: ID | VARIETY | PRODUCT 1 | Fresh White | Garlic 2 | Fres Valencianita | Onion
Is therey a way to merge variety and product? Cause I want to make an invoice description with a text that can be made out merging fields of a same table/qry.
Sth like the following: "[QUANTITY] of [VARIETY] [PRODUCT] from [COUNTRY], size: [SIZE]...."
I saw a topic about listing items horizontally but I think it was kinda different from what I wanted, specially cause involved more than one table.
I have a form with some controls, and for some of the controls, I would like to provide some info, when a user key presses a particular key. I would like that when this assigned key is pressed a small box will pop up providing the relevant information. However, for this feature i do not wish to use the msgbox, to provide the information in, but i would like to use something as those "white boxes" which are normally used in help files (the ones that normally describes a definition of a particular term).
Can this be done in access, and if you kindly could you point me in the right direction.
Suppose I have sharing drive, let's say "\server1sharefolderDatabasesdb1.mdb"
if I run this CurrentProject.Path inside the database file, it will retreive the current path with drive letter, but how can I retreive the server, and sharefolder information?
