Crosstab Queries, Column Headings And Lookup Table
Aug 22, 2006
Not sure if there is a quick answer but I am trying to complete a crosstab query that references a lookup table. I cannot remove the lookup tables because the database was designed by a consultant. The lookup table is referenced as the column heading. The query works fine until I change the column headings in the properties box - it returns the column headings but there are no values. Am I doing something simple wrong or is it having troubles because it is a lookup table for column headings.
I have a Graph that uses a crosstab query to generate the data. Its only a simple query. One of the fields is project type, but in the query this changes to a number instead of text? I would like to have this as text but don't know how to go about it. I have searched forums and tried Allen Browne's suggestion on specifying column headings but no luck.
I have attached the initial query and the crosstab query in the screen shot as well as the graph. My aim is to get the project names in the legend, instead of 1, 2 as shown.
I have a created a crosstab query which gives me the results I need, but I want to sort the row headings differently. These are not numbers, but machine sizes which range from 4 Metre to 20 Metre. Currently, the crosstab gives me:
10 Metre 12 Metre 14 Metre 17 Metre 20 Metre 3 Metre 4 Metre 5 Metre etc
But I need to show it as:
3 Metre 4 Metre 5 Metre 10 Metre 12 Metre 14 Metre 17 Metre etc.
The field is short text data type and data comes from an ODBC linked table to SQL server table, and I am using Access 2013.
I've setup some crosstab queries with good success and set column headings that appear with blank spaces when there's no data as expected, but I have 1 report that is formatted with set row headings (its a specifically formatted report that i need to produce, that i can't just change).So I need to basically do the same but with the row headings set (I have got the crosstab working, just not showing the rows with no data as yet).
I have inherited an Access 2003 database and have been asked to improve the functionality of said database. Specifically, I have been asked to create some charts for improved reporting. I used the wizard to create a crosstab query to support the chart(s):
Code:
PARAMETERS [Forms]![Switchboard]![ActualDate] DateTime; TRANSFORM Sum(qryPMCompletion.CountOfWOs) AS SumOfCountOfWOs SELECT qryPMCompletion.PA_Priority FROM qryPMCompletion GROUP BY qryPMCompletion.PA_Priority PIVOT qryPMCompletion.wo_Completed WITH OWNERACCESS OPTION;
Now what has happened is that the wo_Completed is a Yes/No field so my column headings and therefore my legend comes up as "-1" and "0" instead of "Closed" and "Open".
Is there anyway to change the name of the column headings or shall I just create my own legend?
If there was a way I could get the crosstab query in Access to allow more than one column I would solve a major problem. Is that possible?...help anyone?
I have created a cross tab query that contains a row heading for Entity and Total Cases. I would like to have a percentage of the Case Total for Each Category as well as the count for each category. It works fine for just the counts and here is the sql behind it:
TRANSFORM Count(CASEDATA.CASESTATUS) AS CountOfCASESTATUS SELECT IUIDCODES.CODEDESCRIPTION, Count(CASEDATA.CASETYPECODE) AS CountOfCASETYPECODE FROM (CASEDATA INNER JOIN CASESTATUSCODES ON CASEDATA.CASESTATUS = CASESTATUSCODES.CODEID) INNER JOIN IUIDCODES ON CASEDATA.IUID = IUIDCODES.CODEID WHERE (((CASEDATA.CASETYPECODE)=63) AND ((CASEDATA.FYSTATUS)=6 Or (CASEDATA.FYSTATUS)=7 Or (CASEDATA.FYSTATUS)=8)) GROUP BY IUIDCODES.CODEDESCRIPTION PIVOT CASESTATUSCODES.CODEDESCRIPTION;
I need to add a column to a crosstab query that counts all of the occurrences of "P" in a particular row in the crosstab query. Basically "P" stands for "Present" and I need to know how many days each employee was present for his/her shift. The SQL for the crosstab query is as follows:
PARAMETERS [Forms]![frmDashboardReports]![txtStartDateAndTime] DateTime, [Forms]![frmDashboardReports]![txtEndDateAndTime] DateTime; TRANSFORM First(tblAttendance.AttendanceCode) AS FirstOfAttendanceCode SELECT tblAttendance.EmployeeName FROM tblAttendance WHERE (((tblAttendance.AttendanceDate)>=[Forms]![frmDashboardReports]![txtStartDateAndTime] And (tblAttendance.AttendanceDate)<=[Forms]![frmDashboardReports]![txtEndDateAndTime])) GROUP BY tblAttendance.EmployeeName PIVOT Format([AttendanceDate],"Short Date");
This returns an "AttendanceCode" against each employee against each day in the specified time period. I just need to be able to "sum" those codes in a column.
FirstName and Surname as Row Headings. Date as Column Heading. OnShift as a Value (Count).
These are from the table DailyActivityLogs. Also in that table is a choice field called Weather that lets you choose the conditions that day (Weather, Work, Part Weather, Subbed).
This is the report the crosstab query generates:
What I would like to do is colour the Count fields depending on what the weather was that day. It seems possible, as Weather sits in the same table, but the field Weather isn't in the crosstab query.
I am using Access 2000. I have created a crosstab query to run monthly reports based on a fiscal calendar year. My problem is that my column heading is a parameter [Fiscal Period] that returns the fiscal week #s as column headings and they change for each fiscal period. I cannot find a way to list these in the properties box as column headings and therefore they will not display as field names and I cannot create forms or reports from them. Can anyone help?
What I am wanting to do is to have columns at the end of my imported data that reference another table to tell me based on the queue what service type and centre it relates to.
I have attached 2 pictures one with table 1 and the other with table 2. Table one shows the last column 'SERVICE_TYPE' which I need to lookup from the reference table (aka table 2 - which has been attached).
I'm relatively new to access. I have a database i created for my school project everything works fine until I try running a query with 2 or more tables, the queries return a datasheet with all the table headings but no data content, I ensured that there is data in the tables that I'm trying to join for the query.
I have a one-rowed query, with the following column headings and values:
(see pic1)
I want similiar columns to be grouped and their respective values to be summed. I.e.
(see pic2)
Can someone plese tell me how this is done in SQL?
I could just add the columns manually through the Design-View, but this would cause that new column headings that are added in the future to not be reflected in the query.
I have about 10 columns with data in each column...the columns dont need to show every time. I want to set it up where the user pics the column heading from a drop-down menu and then that column alone will show, none of the other columns are visible...can this be done?
I then use another query to sort and remove duplicate entries, using the 'Totals' option Group By and Last.
I then export the datasheet to an Excel spreadsheet.
All goes well, except that the headers on the spreadsheet show LastOfXXXX or GroupByXXXXX. Now I can run a replace function in Excel to remove LastOf and GroupBy from each column header, but it would be more useful if the replace routine was performed prior to the export to Excel.
I have a table machine with fields: ID(PK)model ( lookup column to machine model)serialnotype
Then a table meter reading: IDmachineserialno (lookup column to tblmachine/serialno)readingdatetotalcounter
I want it to be like when i press lookup column in tblmeterreading/ machine serialno....it shall show the machine serial no|model in the popup combobox.
Instead it shows my machine serialno|id,
for example: when I select the machineserialno. a combobox shall show: s/n:221233 | sony
Is there a way of changing the column heading names on the split form portion of an access form. I tried changing them using a query to populate the form and changing the caption of each field in the query and that didn't work. I also tried adding a [Caption] at the design level of the table and that had no affect also. The split form seems to be displaying a portion of the actual field name or something like that.
I have a table called Locations that lists Countries and Cities:
USA, Detroit USA, Chicago USA, New York UK, London UK, Liverpool UK, Birmingham France, Paris France, Le Mans
I then have another table for inputing details on people I know. This table would have columns called Country and City. I've figured out how to make the Country column a "lookup column" so that I can only enter USA, UK or France. But how do I make the City column show only the appropriate list of cities relevant to the country that I've selected (e.g. Paris or Le Mans if France is the selected country).
I have a form which has a combobox called Task_Ref which looks up values in a table column.
I would like to be able to set the tickbox value of tickbox called P1 to True if the combobox contains the word "test", each entry on the combobox selection may vary such as:-
Test number 1 Yesterdays Test
As long as the word "Test" appears I would like the above to happen?
I was thinking of something along the lines of:-
If InStr(Task_Ref.Value, "Test") > 0 Then P1.Value = True Else P1.Value = False End If End Sub
how data is best structured in Access.I have a table of values (for instance: weight) and I need to be able to look up a weight based on the column header (age) and row header (height).How is this sort of data best structured and accessed in Access?
I am trying to make a crosstab query to filter my records from my table.
Here is the scenario.
I want to make a query that will return me my Rep ID, Rep Name, his Bonus and his GV-Q (another value) based on every month.
Now I make a crosstab query and here is the syntax.
Code: TRANSFORM First([TBL Qualification Data India].[Bonus Rank]) AS [FirstOfBonus Rank] SELECT [TBL Qualification Data India].[Rep #], [TBL Qualification Data India].[Rep Name] FROM [TBL Qualification Data India] GROUP BY [TBL Qualification Data India].[Rep #], [TBL Qualification Data India].[Rep Name] PIVOT [TBL Qualification Data India].Period;
This resulted in a column for Rep Number, one column for Rep Name and columns for all the period of Bonus I am going to have., so there are basically 9 columns for this till this month for each month and bonus value shows as values for all these month (period) columns.
Now in this same syntax, I want to have my Rep GV-Q value as well as his bonus to show in the same query, I read and came to know that it's not possible to directly have two values or two column headings in a crosstab query, I must have to make a new crosstab query and then use a normal select query to display records from these two crosstab queries, so I went ahead and made a new similar but with one value field changed crosstab query and here is the syntax for that.
Code:
TRANSFORM First([TBL Qualification Data India].[GV-Q]) AS [FirstOfGV-Q] SELECT [TBL Qualification Data India].[Rep #], [TBL Qualification Data India].[Rep Name] FROM [TBL Qualification Data India] GROUP BY [TBL Qualification Data India].[Rep #], [TBL Qualification Data India].[Rep Name] PIVOT [TBL Qualification Data India].Period;
Now after this how to make a select query to show the data from these two queries.
I can make a normal query based on these two crosstab queries and manually add all fields and then I would have my result but then after every month I have to manually enter these two extra month details from both crosstab queries to my final query and that's not what I want.
Is there any method to do this by gathering data from these two queries into one and achieve the result I want or if there is any other approach to tackle this.
To explain my database and my need for output, I am attaching few pics to make things easier if I made some mistakes in explaining my problem. It's included in attached zip since I am not able to post images or links.
I am attempting to create my first crosstab query in design view. Adding a simple row and column header and one value, I always get the error message 'Too many crosstab column headers (454)'. What am I doing wrong? Here is the SQL:
TRANSFORM Sum(Forecast.QTY) AS SumOfQTY SELECT Forecast.HECI FROM Forecast GROUP BY Forecast.HECI PIVOT Forecast.QTY;
