In table 1 fields Factor, Aggregations, Stat, and Days Back are fields that make up a multi-field primary key [URL].
I want to create a relationship between that multi-field primary key and another table, call it table 2, and make it a one-to-one relationship.
How do I do this in MS Access 2013?
Alright I've been picking my brain for the past hour trying to figure this one out...
I have 3 tables...
1) Retailers-RetailerID, RetailerName, address etc. (500 entries)
2) Distributors- DistributorID, DistName (10 entries)
3) Uses- RetailerID, DistributorID
Sample data is as follows for 'Uses' table:
RetailerID DistributorID
1 1
1 3
2 1
2 6
3 4
3 5
4 8
I am trying to create a search form based on a query which will return retailer information for those retailer who use multiple distributors.
For Example...There will be 2 text boxes and a user can enter a distributorID in these text boxes. If only 1 distributorID is entered, it will display records for that one.
I have tried the following but I have been unsuccessful:
SELECT Uses.RetailerID, Retailers.Address, Count(Uses.RetailerID) AS CountOfDistributorID
FROM Retailers INNER JOIN (Distributor INNER JOIN Uses ON Distributor.DistributorID = Uses.DistributorID) ON Retailers.RetailerID = Uses.RetailerID
WHERE Uses.DistributorID = 1
GROUP BY Uses.RetailerID, Retailers.Address
HAVING Count(Uses.RetailerID) > 1
Is this possible to accomplish with the way I designed this database? If so, can I get a little advice? I know this is a long question that can't be answered in full but I would just need to basics in order to be on my way.
Thanks in advance!
I have two Tables, Table A and Table B...Table A and B have a one to many relationship with A (one) and B (many).I have a Master form that displays information for Table A. Also, I have a subform within this Master that displays information for Table B.
As I scroll through the records of A, you can see the 1-many relationship elucidated in the subform with many being displayed for Table B.I run into a dilemma, though, when I try to ADD a new record to Table A (and in turn Table B).When I add a new record, there is no Primary Key left to be displayed since this primary key is generated from a query.Hence, when I move to a new record, I can not save the record because there is no primary key. Since there is no primary key, there is nothing that i can input into the subform either. I want to create the primary key from values entered in the field. However, i CAN NOT create a relationship with an expression for field values.
Is it possible to create a relationship between subform and a table?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a table for a multiple parents linked to a child table. I need to figure out a way to only allow 1 parent to be coded as primary, 1 as secondary, and then the rest as other... I thought about making Primary/Secondary/Other a primary key. But then I can only have 1 other. I would have to make a finite number of parents that could be entered and I want an infinite number.... My end goal is to have a report that only has a primary and second parent on it, but the rest of the parents still exist in the table...

Hi,
I'm making a database of spare parts for machinery.
But I came upon the following problem :
A part can sometimes be used is more that 1 machinery.
But I do not understand how I put the ID of all the machines in 1 field of that spare part
example : spare partes :
- ID
- name
- machines
How do I solve this problem the best way?
TIA!
Why and where do we create a multiple field relationship in Microsoft access.
The relationship between CompanyContacts and CompanyProducts.(Adopted from Microsoft access 2013 inside out by John Viescas).
What was the main purpose of using such a relationship here and where are such relationships frequently created.
How do I add multiple fields in the same table with the same primary key?
For example I have an employee with the employee ID 1 named john. He has two degrees. One in Math the other in science. I need to have both of these incorporated into my table.
I`m designing a database in MS Access '97.
A lot of the tables I`m using have multiple primary key fields.
How is it posible to create one relationship between 2 fields in table A and 2 primary key fields in table B and force integrity?
thx in advance
Right now, I have 4 related tables. There's a table with companies, one with people involved with companies, a table linking the two by having foreign keys of the company number and people names, and a table that indicates directors and their alternates.
Since there's a one-to-many relationship for companies/people to company-peopleID (A person can run multiple companies, a company has multiple directors, it's easier this way), a person's name can appear multiple times, as can a company, within that table.
In a company, a director may or may not have 1 and only 1 alternate director to him/herself. So, I thought the easiest way was to put an autonumber in the Company-personID table and have a table (alternates) that had two fields, "alternate" and "director", both using that autonumber to link them. However, it appears as though I can't link the same primary key twice to two foreign keys of the same table.

I'm developing a simple sporting records db. I have a 'Competitor' table listing competitors as follows: CompetitorPK, Name, Division, Club. I have a 'Contest' table listing contests as follows: ContestPK, Competitor1_FK, Competitor2_FK, Winner_FK, Score etc. My question is have I modelled tables correctly i.e. CompetitorPK will appear in three columns of Contest table. How do I define this relationship? What alternative is there to what I have done.I intend to use forms to populate both tables (independantly obviously).

One table in my database keeps getting corrupt records; I get various error messages when navigating a particular form - including 'Record is deleted' (when it hasnt been), 'The search key was not found in any record, 'Object invalid and no longer set' etc. After receiving one of these messages one or more records in my table corrupts (strange symbols and #Error# appears in the fields) - I have to compact and repair and delete the record.
I have imported everything into a new clean database several times but the same thing keeps happening.
Additionally the table that keeps corrupting is randomly 'losing' its primary key and relationships - they just simply dont exist anymore. I understand that importing into a new database could cause this - but they arent disappearing after I have imported; the database can be running fine and then after a few days I check the table again and the primary key is no longer set and the relationships to other tables have disappeared.
I am compacting and repairing every day and having to recreate a new clean database about once a week - and keep getting the same problems with the same table!!!
Has anyone seen this happen before and could anyone suggest where I would begin trying to resolve this. Any advice would be REALLY appreciated.
Many Thanks in advance
I have a table with more than 700,000 records. There are no unique fields or unique combination of fields. I would like to add an AutoNumber field but when I try I get the message:
File sharing lock count exceeded. Increase MaxLocksPerFile registry entry.
If I answer yes I get an error that the new field was not added. Is there any way to add a key foield to an existing database?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have two tables containing data from two separate sources. The unique "link" between the two is a JobNumber field. I need to set up a relationship between the two tables using the JobNumber field.
Problem:
In one table, the JobNumber has been input in this format: 12-00345-01
In 2nd table, the JobNumber has been input in this format: 12-00345-1
How can I tie these when the 2nd table is missing the "0"?

Access 2010..One organization that we work with provides us with a block of numbers for each of the two types of contract products we order from them; we do order non-contract stuff from them also.The block of numbers are the same (i.e. 20000 to 30000 this year) for each of the two products. This means that each product can have the number 20000, for example. We call this the Tracking Number. If it is one of these products, we need to select the Contract Number.
For all other one off orders we have with them, we assign our own Tracking Number starting with 00001. This Tracking Number cannot duplicate unless it is one of the aforementioned two products.Both the Tracking Number and Contract Number are in the same table. The user selects the Contract Number from a form (connected to the Contract Number table that has all the details on the contract) and the Contract Number is populated in the same table that has the Tracking Number.Each order must have a Tracking Number (no null)..Not all orders need a Contract Number (null okay).The Tracking Number and Contract Number combination cannot duplicate.I tried setting the primary keys to more than one field in the table, but they cannot have null values.
If not... I have been working on Plan B.... an AfterUpdate on the form (either the form or a field... don't know yet) that looks at a query that only has results if there are duplicate values.
I have two tables which are in a one-to-many relationship (the example I am dealing with is a mother and her children).
I want one form for the mother, with fields such as date of birth, and when you click Add Record I want the mother table to be updated with the new record.
However on this form I also want a field for "number of children" and when the Add Record button is clicked, not only does the table containing all the mothers get a record added, I would like XX records added to the children table where XX is the number of children entered into the form. These should have separate IDs but retain a common field that identifies the mother.
This is a errand database where each client can have several errands and some errands are related to each one and other.
Since each client can have several errands and and each errand is related to each one and other, then the client. I thought i need key which can work as a ClientErrandID, so i can tie the errands together. My idee is to use the ClientErrandID as an text auto incrementing field with a string like: (Errand-A-xxxx).
Lest say the range would be from (Errand-A-0000 to Errand-A-9999) And when the string hits "9999" at the end the "A" will switch to a "B" and the number counter would start over from "0000"
How should the table relationship look like?When a user is adding a new errand to a client, how should the function work?
Should all the associated errands be created in the background and granted the same Errand_ID when the main errand is created?Can i create a incrementing text field with vba & queries?
How would the code structure look like?Is there any examples on a incrementing text field with code available?

[AllItems] is a listing of account activity where the [AccountNumber] repeats. I have every field set as the "Primary Key" on [AllItems] as that is the only way to avoid importing duplicate data.

tables
divs(divid, div, div_short, div_num)
subdivs ( subdivid, divid, subdiv)
issues (issueID, issue, issueName, subdivid)
subIssue1 (subissueID, subissue, issueid)
subIssue2 (subissue2id, subissue2, issueid)
resolution (resID, labeltext, subIssueID)
resolutionlink( resID, labeltext, linktext, navURL, suIssueID)
relationships
div and subdiv (1 to many)
subdiv and issues (1 to many)
issues and subIssue1 (1 to many)
subIssue1 and subIssue2 (1 to many)
Now resolution table could have a one to many relationship with either issue table, subIssue1 table, or subIssue2 table. When I go to create any of those relationships, Access won't allow me. Tells me it can't create this relationship and enforce referential integrity.
Possibly I need to restructure my database to accomodate?
I am not sure, any help would be appreciated.

i essentially have 2 table:
1. Table BIC
A list of codes that will be updated monthly, which will be the basis for querying the second table. Approx 100 rows of data.
2. Table Original
A data file obtained from IT where i'll need to sort it to find any codes that are including in Table1. This includes approx ~ 10,000 row of data.
** note, the "BIC" from "Table BIC" can appear in any of the 5 BIC columns in Table Original.
What i need to do is create a query that will:
1. Search the "BIC" from "Table BIC" in all 5 columns of "Table Original".
2. Where it has a hit, it will create new table - for example, the first row of table Original includes the BIC "ABC" in the "BIC 1" column. A query would create table "ABC" and place this whole record (all 8 fields) in new table "ABC". No modification needed.
3. Where two (or more) BIC's from "Table BIC" appear in one record in "Table Original" - the result will only need to be placed in one of the new tables (really doesn't matter which one). For example, Record #4 includes the BIC "ABC" in field "BIC1" and the BIC "DEF" in the field "BIC4". Therefore, a new table would be created (either ABC or DEF) to capture this information.
