Database Search Help
Feb 13, 2007
Hi All,
This is my first post to the group. I am starting out on ASP. I have done a simple registration form, things are going on well here, now i am creating a search display that takes in a value from the search field on the HTML form and queries that on the access database and populate the remaning fields on the form. I have an field ID on the database to auto-number and track each record.
How do you go about doing this ?, how to have an if else condition to know when to stop searching and return control ?
Can i have something like this ?
strSQL="Select * from userinfo WHERE Request.Form("uname")=rs("user_fname")"
I am stuck because there's no control statement to generate the next set of code to display and populate the fields. I also need to know how to extract all information of a record based on. I have just started to learn...
Thanks!

I have a database that uses four forms and each form has it's own table and each form has it's own search button to find a specific record within that table. I would like to use one search button that will look at all four tables and bring up the correct record when the request number is entered. Can I link all the tables to perform this or is code required? Can someone send me in the right direction for how to do this? Give me an example of code if it's required?
Thanks for any help I can get.

I have built a custom search form in a MS Access 2010 database so that users can find specific records to edit. After entering the search criteria and hitting a Search button, another form opens up that shows the search results. This second form includes a command button for generating a report of the search results.
Right now, the custom search form and the search results form are both working properly, but the search results report is showing every record in the database instead of just the search results. This is true whether I access the report via the command button in the form or the navigation pane. I'm not sure if I need to correct my VBA code or the report's properties.

Hi,
First post here, and first up I will admit to being very much a first time user, although with *some* experience of access and VB coding in Excel (from back at school!!!) and a fairly technical mind.
I am a jazz musician, and have tried to create a database of all the CDs / records that I own so that i can search for either a player or a song title and can see details of all albums that feature my search criteria. I thought this would be fairly easy, and although I have been able to create a query (and then a report to show this clearly) when searching for a player (i.e. search for "Bill Evans" under the field "Piano", the same can not be easily done for my song search, where I have a different field for each song (with a max of 21 fields available!). This would require me making a query for a song 21 times, with each query searching under a different of the 21 'song' fields.
There must be a way of doing this much more efficiently...I am envisaging having a search box coming up which would search all records for the criteria entered and then create a report showing all records containing matches.
Is this possible? I am fast discovering that there is MUCH more to Access than initially meets the eye, and if the answer would be too long to give then some guidance in the right direction would be great!
Thanks in advance,
Steve
** EDIT ** I tried to upload my project but sadly it was too large. I will try and reduce its size and re-attempt or will upload it to some webspace.

Hi, I have been trying to make a datbase so I can input the serial number of an electronic device (cell phone boards) , and also would like to be able to add additional info about the device. Most importantly I have to be able to "search" for the device by typing the serial number in a search box.
So lets say I have serial number 11111, 11112, 11113, 11114 listed in the database as "intermittent power failures", before I use the device I can type the serial number in the database and be able to recall the details. So if I type in 11119 and no hits come back, I know that one is not in the system yet; meaning it ethere does not have a problem, or the problem has not been discovered yet. If I type in 111111 for example, it would come back as a hit, saying it has an "intermittent power failure" problem. I have spent about 4 hours messing with access, I used it a while back in office 03, however I have never did anything like that, and to make things further complicated we now only have office 07. Does anyone have a template which is similar (I can modify the values) or know how to assist me to be able to create a database like this?

im trying to get a site working
www.peck-ed.com/search.asp
but im having some problems with the search on asp. the problem as u can see is the fact it has to be the exact item for the search to work, atm the query is
Select * From PLIST Where PLIST.DESC Like "::ID::"
but i need it to work on single words from teh database rather then the whole thing, anyone got any ideas if i can change that so it will pick up on words rather then the whole item?
Amiga'Ferrari Formula One'
use that if you need to find an example of data, its got all the stock records of the shop dating back for years :P

Is there a way to search an entire database? Almost like a Google search where a user could put in a few key words and it would retrieve all records no matter which fields the key words appeared in?

I need to make a search form where i can search from the database access and generate the report in Excel.for example in a form there are 4 fields, I can search by field by field and press submit button then if there is no record it will pop up that no record found if there is a record so it will generate an excel sheet with formatting.

Hi
I have a database which I have replicated and I am trying to synchronise the replicated copy with the design master - both at the moment are stored on the same network share.
Whenever I try to sync from the replicated copy I get an error message saying the "search key was not found" and the database won't sync.
What should I be looking for to correct this?
running Access 2003 - Win XP SP2

***Updated*** Search/Email Results has been solved....Working out some bugs and trying to add a Print Address Labels option to the search. The post at Date Nov. 5, 11:4x is the new post with updated info. Thanks! ***Updated***
I have read a ton in the last hour or so on this subject and gained a little insite, but since I have no Access programing experience I am still pretty lost. However, I have programing experience in other areas, so if it requires some macros, I shouldn't have too much trouble. /crossfingers
I have put together a database for the business I work for that contains around 3,000 contacts.
I am trying to figure out a way to do a search that will search out specific contacts and email them a newsletter. Their email address is included in their contact information. So I assume I need a way to search for a specific criteria, grab their email address, and then email them with either an attached document, a prior written email, or have included the newsletter in the body of the code to add into the created email.
Any thoughts?
Thanks so much for your time,
Nick

I've created a Report called "Labels". I would like to use a program mwalts gave
me that searches my database and then sends out a mass email. I would like to take
this program and instead of it searching the database and sending an email, have it search
my database and print out the results in a report.
Can someone tell me the command lines I would need to add to the following program to do this?
I would like to just take out the email parts of the code and just substitute them with the print
label parts.
Thanks.

I am creating a database in Access 2010. It is a web database and will be uploaded/used on our Sharepoint site.
I have created a search form, called ContactSearch. It has multiple fields, but the first field, for an example, is FirstName. It then searches the query called ContactSearchQ to display the record.
In the criteria field for the query I have:
Like "*" & [Forms]![ContactSearch]![FirstName] & "*"
It works fine...except when it comes to using it on the web database. I am sure there is a solution for creating a search form on a web database, but I have not found it yet.

Attached i have a Database with 3 Tables.
-Table MA's. is the just a table were you can select if an Analyst is at the office or not. so if the check box is selected the analyst is available.
-Table Backups. We have Alias which is a reference code to a supplier the 1 Analyst and then Backup 1 and backup 2
-Table suppliers are just de supplier details.
what i whould need is when in the MA's table an Analyst is not selected a macro or query should search for backup 1 and replace it. when the backup 1 is not available as wel than backup 2 should be put in place.
When no backups are availeble then a message can put in the cell like"No Backup Available'.
This result can be put in a new table named. Decksplit with then the Supplier Alias, Supplier Name, Analyst

Im working on a cross comparison database for the three food vendors for my boss. What is the best way to search across the three tables? They all have similar record titles but arent all uniform, and I cant change the records because I have to have the record names the same as the files that are being exported from the vendors websites. What would be the easiest way to search across three similar but not uniform tables in one database? Ive also tried to make three buttons to update the lists after I download the items to have up-to-date prices on the products but am unsure if they are actually working correctly.

one of my steps for my access class in college is to save a database in Access 2013 with a search bar criteria - however no matter how I try Access opens up even after I save as with all the objects showing. Is there a way to save so that when I open access it already has the search bar criteria saved?

Dear All,
I have a property database linked to ArcView 3.1. It has a field that links to the ArcView Database called ID which is unique and set to a data type of double.
I have a further form that can go straight to a record if you know it's ID.
This form works fine so long as the ID field is no more than 5 digits. I have a series of polygons that have six figure ID's - the link to arcview works fine using these six fig ID fields however the form that looks for that particular ID can't cope with the six figure numbers...
My problem is although I could change all the ID's of the records in the Database so that the search on ID worked (ie five figure id) they then wouldn't match with the overlay in ArcView and I would not be able to link through using code without first changing and matching all the codes associated with the polygons (time consuming)
I did try changing the datatype of the ID field to long integer but still have the same problem. Strange that the search works for five figure IDs and not six.
Does anyone know whether this is a data type error or is it some simple oversight.? I can probably work out some way of changing all the ID fields to five figures but would prefer to keep the six figures as they are used in some pre-printed material as refs
Thanks in advance
Mark

I have created a form to search a field in my database by running a query. i can only get it to search for direct matches as I am having no luck getting the "LIKE" Operator to work for me. the format should apparently be, like "A*" , this works but i woud like to replace "A" with a variable from a txt box in my form. which will be a combination of letters and numbers
followed what i think is the right instructions and pasted the appropriate bits in the expression builder to tell it where to look but doesnt work
cant fathom out why its not working, it just produces blank queries
Also in the query design page do i need to do anything with the optional "Total" row dropdown menu?
help much appreciated

Hey there, can anyone advise if the following is possible and if so how it might be done?
I have created a site using DWMX04, ASP & ACCESS.
I would like to be able to have some sort of report on what is being searched on the database.
Can this be done in ACCESS or by using ASP?
Any ideas or suggestions would be great.
Mally.

I am trying to create a Form in which a user is prompted for a road name and that a listing of all values having that road name are displayed. My problem is that Road Name in the database is a combination of the road name and road suffix such as Evergreen Street. I want the operatior to be able to enter just the road name, Evergreen, and get a listing of all Evergreen addresses; Evergreen St., Evergreen Rd., Evergreen Ln., etc. How do I create the prompt so that it ignores the road suffix and searches just on the name?
I should add that I know how to use brackets in a form prompting the user to input a parameter. In a query I can use "*" to find all those records having a portion of the desired data. For example in my query I can use "Evergreen*"
to find all records where the fisrt portion of the data record is Evergreen.
How can I apply the "*" to a user entry prompt.

I wonder if by any chance it is possible to create a search bar that scans the entire database- or lemme say the fields i assigned to such search bar- that can be put in the switchboard or so.
According to my level of understanding of access, this should be a query.
However, is it possible to make it appear like a search bar that could be placed where I want it; in this case in the switchboard??
Does it require a certain code or something?
