can I use create table query and change a fields data type?
I have a field with numbers, but when I get the table, it is set as a text field. I want it to be a number field, but I can't change the orignal table. That's why I was going to use a create table query, but I can't figure out how to change the data type from text to number.
Thanks
Hi
Is there a quick way to split up a table into many other tables? I want to split the table by Client Number, so all the Clients with 1234, for example, are in a table called Client1234
I know the very long winded way, creating a ‘Create New Table’ query, inputting the Client Code criteria each time.
Is there a better more efficient way?
Thanks

Hi,
I wrote a script which creates a new table and append records into it. Here are my codes:
For Each rst In dbs.tabledefs
If rst.NAME = "Biweekly_Temp_Table" Then
dbs.tabledefs.Delete rst.NAME

End If
Next rst

NOW THE ISSUE IS, AN ALERT MESSAGE ALWAYS POP UP SAYING SOMETHING LIKE, "You are about to paste 34590 row(s) into a new table." What would I have to do to get rid of this pop up? Eventually my users are going to use this and I don't want them to be alarmed when the message pop up.
Thank.

Hi Forumers...
I have data in a table that looks like this...
SITE-ID | VALUE
Site 1 | 20
Site 1 | 21
Site 1 | 16
Site 2 | 8
Site 2 | 9
Site 2 | 12
etc...
I would like to create a query that allows me to show summary statistics for each site. eg...
SITE-ID | VALUE_MIN | VALUE_MAX | VALUE_AVG
Site 1 | 16 | 21 | 19
Site 2 | 8 | 12 | 9.667
etc...
Am relatively new to MS Access and can't work out how to create a query that does this. Any help will be appreciated.

I have a table which stores multiple materials in different columns, and the analysis results for each material in the associated cell. I need to create a query which will display a new row for each material and result with all the appropriate associations (location, date, time, etc.) Is there a way to do this in a single query? Do I have to create a separate query for each material?
Ultimately, I need to create an excel file which displays each material, the analysis result for that material, and the associated site, date/time values in a new row for each material.
Thanks for any help.
How can we do this? Can someone pls help? The query should be part of the code. Like create a variable strSQL = "SELECT * FROM ...." and so on
Newbie here :)
Hi,
I have the below in an SQL query that is called by a button (At present) that creates a table with an autonumber Primary Key (Can do a single Autonumber PK or a multiple field PK at the moment with the SQL code), and i want to create a table but the table name (An maybe some fields) to be from a field in the table. How can i do this, and is the below correctly written?? it works OK, but may be untidy.
CREATE TABLE Discharges ( MainID COUNTER CONSTRAINT MainID PRIMARY KEY, DischargeDate1 date,
Program1 varchar, Eligibility1 yesno, Cap1 currency, Phase1 varchar(111),
SRFA1 yesno, DischargeDate2 date, Program2 varchar,
Eligibility2 yesno, Cap2 currency, Phase2 varchar, SRFA2 yesno,
DischargeDate3 date, Program3 varchar, Eligibility3 yesno,
Cap3 currency, Phase3 varchar, SRFA3 yesno, DischargeDate4 date,
Program4 varchar, Eligibility4 yesno, Cap4 currency, Phase4 varchar, SRFA4 yesno, testlabel memo)
Have tried:
CREATE TABLE [Form1].[User] (
CREATE TABLE Form1.User (
and then made the record save (To store the field value on the form) before running the SQL code, but nothing happens (No errors)
Thanks

Hello all,
Is there anyway to create a table from a query like you can in oracle?
i.e.
Create Table [B_match] AS
SELECT *
FROM [B_All]
Take care

I have an old ERP system. The upload function is one line per value. So if I want to upload 7 models I need 7 lines, not one line with Qty of 7
however my source system sends the data as one line with Qty of 7

Hi all, i need some help constructing a query that will create a table for me that does not include the Type value of 'promotion' if the same ID value exists elsewhere within the query.For instance, in the example below, i would want to delete the first entry containing 'Promotion' because ID2001 exists in two other places. However, if only one instance of ID2001 'Promotion' existed in my query, i would want to keep that entry. I would prefer to write all my data to a new table called "Test", This query has to sort out about 1000 entries when executed, otherwise i'd do it manually.I'm pulling my hair out with this one, so could someone help me?ID Company Name TypeID2001 Disc plc John PromotionID2001 Disc plc Paul AgentID2001 Disc plc George Agent
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have three tables with data.
Table1 is data for meals.
Table2 is data for room costs.
Table3 is data for payments made.
Each of these tables has a foreign key for EventID.I'm trying to produce a report that will show, for each EventID:
The total billed (which is meals + rooms)
The total paid (from Table3)
The balance due (the difference from the two above).
Do I have to create summary queries for each table?
I have a rotating number of tables that are created from excel spreadsheets that are imported. The Tables will change, but when they are there I need to be able to create a query that will merge them all together so I can run one query against all the tables. In SQL I know you can use a * to say Select *
From Table_1
Is there a syntax for the From portion so I can say:
Select *
From * (AKA all the tables in the Database)?
I have searched for a wildcard for the FROM statement that works like in the select statement but have been unsuccessful at finding an answer. Can anybody help? I'd list the Tables in the from Statement but there are 266 of them. Unless someone knows how to say:
Select *
From All tables in a folder with 266 excel spreadsheets
Thanks for your help

I've got a fields called rev code that contain the following values:
field name: 110 131 250 255 258
field value: 7.49 6 11.25 12.11 78
I'm writing a query that pulls from the first two digits of the rev code and need to round off to the nearest dollar so in my query I'll have a column 11 with a value of 7, a column 13 with a value of 6, then I need to take columns 250 255 and 255 add the values together and round off so I get a column 25 with a value of 101.
How do I do that?
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.
I have a table with multi columns with unsorted data.
I want to run query to sort data in multiple columns.
How can i do it?
I was just wondering if I could use a query and table to create pivot chart? and If so how I could do this? I need information from both in order to create the chart I want.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHave a Make table query that needs to create (add) several new fields where each field must be numeric design.
Have tried:
Score1: Not Null - does not seem to work (results in a Binary field)
Score1: 0 - which does give me the numeric field designation but every field in table contains a 0.
Would like to show Blank field (makes data input easier at a later time) but still have the Numeric designation.
I am trying to work with Access 2010 to do some pretty simple stuff. I have two tables, one with around 500k rows, the other with around 150k rows. There aren't too many columns, less or around 20 for each table.
I am just trying to do a simple inner join and then create a table but every single time I do it gets about 20% done on the status bar in the bottom right and just hangs. The query itself takes no time to run but it can't create it as a table. Same thing happens if I try to export the query.
I use Access 2013. Is there an easy way to do the following: I have a contract that starts on eg 01/07/2015. Tenant has to pay 100 each month. Is there a way to create a query/table/... where access automatically makes a due date? EG: Joe needs to pay me 100 each month, starting 01/01/2015 until 31/12/2018.
This means:
01/01/2015 - due 100 from Joe
01/02/2015 - due 100 from Joe
...
01/12/2018 - due 100 from Joe
trying to create an update query to Budget table using the Access Design View:
Field: PctSls (in tblBudget) Update to: [Expense] / [Sales]. The update query always returns 0. However, if I create a Select query using the same calculation, the correct results is displayed. PctSls is defined in the Budget table.
I haven't worked with Access (2003) for several years but this seems too simple to be causing me such frustration. (Was only a casual user even then).
I have a make-table query that pulls all the fields from 1 table (MainTable), and creates a new table with a date stamp based apon a form value entered (New Table = MainTableWithDate).
Currently, I setup the query to pull info from the form field like this:
DateField: [Forms]![frmmain]![DateField]
However, when the make-table query is done - all date fields are blank (all other fields are correctly created), and when I look at the new created table (mainTableWIthDate), the typeassigned to the date field is "Binary" (in the form, I've specified LongDate).
I have three tables that contain different columns but linked by a primary column call Name. I want to create a table where all these different columns in the three tables join to form a master table which can be updated regularly either through the master table or the smaller tables. The master table also has the primary column as Name.
If I update the master table with records, it should update the respective linked table and vice versa. I also want to link these tables to my SharePoint site.
Note: except the Name column, none of these tables have any other columns in common How do I go about this?
Here is what I am trying to do: I have form, and a table which is created from this form. The data is entered a second time using the form to make sure there are no discrepancies.
Any easiest way to implement this? (create a new table (which is duplicate), and then compare them?
I have two tables. The first one is as follows:
MP No (Primary key), Sales, Date Entry, Specs, Email
The second Table is as follows:
MP No, Quantity, Description, DWG, Price
There is a "one-to-many" relationship between the two tables through the MP No field so whenever I go to the first table there is a sub-table for each MP No. Correct?can I create an extra sub table under the sub table already created?
I'm a relative newbie to the more advanced features available to Access.
If someone could help me or point me in the right direction, I'd really appreciate it.
I have one table that contains companies and associated contact info. Each company can have more than one unique number ID (3 digit alphanumeric).
I want to take this table and run a query to create a new table that will only have one instance of each company name, along with the other contact information. The unique ID's aren't needed in this table (but it would be great if I could somehow toss them in, too).
This new table would then be used to create a form with a combo box containing all of the names to quickly jump to their contact info.
Any and all help would be appreciated. If a query isn't the best avenue for this, then please point me in that direction, too.
Thanks!
