I have a date base where i am looking for all records which are not scanned every time an order is entered a date is generated. I then want to find all the ones which have not scanned for today. (i know i can do this by a query i.e [Date] =date() .)
Now the problem is that if nothing is entered in today for example i then want to find the next day something was entered.
I am a novice with access and i think there must be some coding which i need to create in a module prehaps but i am unsure. Could any one assist??
I am currently building a booking and invoicing database for the small business where I work. One aspect of this database allows you to enter an employee name and schedule days off via a form I have already built. To access this information I would like a parameter query where you can enter a date once and then have this date looked up across a number of date fields. Here are my table column headings:
ID Employee Name Date 1 Date 2 Date 3 Date 4 Date 5 Date 6 Date 7 ....etc
So, basically, the parameter query would ask "What date?" which the person would enter, and then search all 12 date fields to see if the date was contained in any one of them. Then it would pull any records which did have the date in one of the fields.
It seems really simple but I have searched and searched and can't seem to find the answer. Tried a multivalue field but does not seem to work.
Thanks very much, any help appreciated! Elspeth :confused:
I have a table called tblorders for orders. So I have a form for this, frmOrders.
I also have a form to perform various searches on the orders. So I have a date textbox on this search form and a command button which I want to open the frmOrders according to the date I enter in the textbox. But even though the date on the search form matches the date in tblorders it does open the relevant record??!!
The date textbox is linked to the date field in the tblorders but it doesn't recognise it even if the date is correct! Everything is set to Format: Short date
Any ideas? This system works for other things like serial number etc but not the date for some reason.
I have a table that has 4 fields; id_vl, id_product, date_vl, vl.
Basically each product is valued either on a monthly, weekly or daily basis. I want to create a filter that is based on a text box that filters the dates from which one can look at the dates of valuation and the associated values.
The problem comes with the products valued on a weekly or monthly basis. For example, if I simply say [tblvl].[date_vl]>=Me.textbox, and me.textbox = 13/09/2013, yet the last value date for a weekly product was 09/09/2013, this record won't be included. Therefore I need to set the date of the previous record as the filter. This is my attempt but it doesnt work...
FROM tblVL WHERE iif(tblvl.date_vl<>me.fees_start_date, [tblVL].Date_VL>=(SELECT MAX(PrevDate.Date_VL) FROM tblVL AS PrevDate WHERE PrevDate.Date_VL<[tblVL].[Date_VL] AND PrevDate.Id_Product=tblVL.Id_Product;),tblvl.date_vl>=Me.fees_start_date) ;
I've been banging my head of a brick wall with this one. Its probably straight forward... but I can't see the solution! A problem shared is a problem halved... or so they say!
Ok I have this table called CustomerComments. In it are the following columns
CustID Comment CommentDate
For each custID I want the most recent commentdate and its matching comment from that row... (there can be multilple comments recorded per custID)
Problem is I can't seem to get this to work.. instead its returning all rows. I have run a query that will sort and group this list. The top line of the grouping gives the most recent comment and commentdate per customer.
Does anyone know how I could just get that top line per custID rather than all rows returned?
The database is a patient database used for tracking Inpatient data and Handover (or Handoffs for those in the US). It has been merrily ticking over since December and has accrued several thousand records. To get access to this data in new and interesting ways Im trying evolve my rudimentary search function which currently only works for diagnosis, name and consultant (in otherword text fields).
Thus I have an unbound form that has various input boxes on it. I have borrowed some code to power the form and have replaced with own fields:
Code:
Dim criteria As String
Looks for input text and adds it to the final criteria to power the search list at the end based on field in this case txtDiagnosis
If Not IsNull(Me.txtDiagnosis) Then
If criteria <> "" Then criteria criteria & " and " criteria = criteria & "txtDiagnosis like " & Chr(34) & "*" & Me.txtDiagnosis & "*" & Chr(34) End If
[code]...
ISSUE 1: I am struggling with the date search function. It doesn't work. Whether it is prudent to search for either a admitted date or a discharged date?
ISSUE 2: I have a check box for "complications" that I'd like to be included on in the search.
i'm trying to filter is a datetime value and it just doesn't whant to work.I tried to make a separate unbound text field to filter out the Datetime into year and then filter that field out with year but it doesn't work. What I did:
-I clicked on the control element of the unbound text field. -made a expression with this code : datepart ("YYYY", [BeginDatetime]) -(BeginDateTime is a table value) -After this one it keeps showing me this error : -"the syntax of the expression You've taken specified is invalid"
I am currently working through my A2 (final year of high school in the UK) ICT coursework, in which I am building an Access database system for a small wedding car hire company.
My current problem is I would like to (not even sure if it's possible but I assume it is) have a form that searches a query for a date that the customer has entered.
If there is no date in the query that matches the one that the customer has entered, it means that their chosen date is available. If there is a match however it means that the date is unavailable.
I'm trying to search for a variable (varCod) in a table(SerialNumberCustomer) but I want to only store the returned variable in an array if its shipDate is between 9/30/2001 and 10/1/2012
this is what my code looks like so far:
Set rst = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset( _ "Select * from SerialNumberCustomer WHERE SerialCardId = " & varCod & " AND (ShipDate BETWEEN #09/30/2001# AND #10/01/2012#) ")
The line of code works and it returns all of the values in SerialCardId where it's = to varCode but it doesn't go through with the shipDate requirement. It's instead returning all of the dates with the found value.
Hi, I have two questions which i dont think are two far apart, hence same thread.
First is, how do i make a search text box, that when i click a button searches for what is in that text box, rather than bringing up the find box. It is alright but it always compares it to what was last tabbed, or is the selected tab, and i want it always to compare to another textbox called company name.
secondly. I am often entering entries to the database with the same details. but a different name, how can i have it so that i enter say 4 or 5 names which starts 4 or 5 new records, but then places the rest of the details across all the new records.
I have a database which has 9,00,000 zip codes.... when i am searching for a particular zip code it's taking some time.... can anyone tell me how can i speed up the process.........
I have a database but want to create a Search function.
I want the search function to read a drop down box for a table name, then read two text box's for search criteria then search the table and displat results.
My knowledge of Microsoft Access is limited.
I think I have the theory behind it but not the know how for the coding.
So far I have been able to get it too look at the List Box for the table name then when I hit the search button ive set it to just open the table for now.
but cant get any further, any help would be greatly appreciated.
I need some assistance in searching for a recorded by employee name with the click of a button. There could be more than one record for each employee name so i need a way that once the records are found they can be displayed to the user? ANY help is greatly apprieciated!!!!

I have built a basic database to hold details on all my computer books and software as i hundereds of them.
I have built a table with text, number and memo fields which i want to be able to search.
What i would like is a form where you can enter details into various fields (eg Title, Author, a field to search all fields, etc) and then display the results in a table in the form below it. Then when the record is double-clicked it opens the record ina new form displaying more details.
Is there a way to do it as i have spent months trying to figure it out and trying to include the sample databases?
I have attached my database so any help will be appreciated. Thanks, Aden
In my form every time i click on the search button a box pops out and asks me if i want to continue or accpet the change. the funny thing is i just search and nothing else.
Hello, I'm trying to search an entry of a recordset with VBA
The entry can only be found by searching 3 field values. In my case the correct entry can only be found if the data in the field Date, No_Employe and No_Project all match the data of the entry I want.
Findnext doesn't work, it only access one field and I need three. Seek doesn't work since it need to search a key, and neither Date, No_Employe or No_Project are keys.
How can I proceed ?
Should I use multiples Findnext ( how do I do that ? ) ?
EDIT :
Also please note that I'm searching for 400-500 entries in a row, so speed is an issue.
I have a small yet important question to ask. I have a text box on a form, that text box accepts a product number that the user wants to modify. I want to be able to do the following:
- If the product number does not exist, prompt with an error message (this part is not a problem). - If the product number does exist, populate the text boxes on the form with the respective data. ex: Product number 512547. Does exist, hence: (TB = textbox) Prd. No.TB = 512547 Rec'd Date.TB = 10/10/2006 Comments.TB= blah blah blah, etc. I am simply trying to pull information from a table into text boxes on a form using a text box.
In my Access DB, I have a field named ‘REFNO’. This contains reference numbers of some communications. I have a Combo Box to search records with this ‘REFNO.’ It so happened that there were two communications with the same REFNO. When I typed the wanted number in the Combo Box, only one record was displayed in the form which was not the one I wanted. I was able to see the other record by opening the table. Is there a way to display the next record with the same number in the form with the Combo Box? Grateful for help.
I have a parent table called patient info. and a child table called fills. The database in the future will become very large, and will be difficult to find a particular patient in the parent table to update fills in the child table. How can I search through the parent table with ease so that I can update fills? Thanks for those who help!
I have a database and I made a query to search records. The query worked perfectly, but now the only problem is that if a search has an ID number that is bigger than 239, the results will not be displayed. The query will be empty! :S
I have to database where people enter information and some times miss entering in a field value called [Scanned Invoice] the db automatically gives every entry a date.
The first part was find out which jobs where missing a [scanned invoice] 24hrs ago by making a query [scanned invoice] Is Null [Date Entered] =date()-1 which works fine.
I then realised that sometimes people access the system on a saturday and as the system used globally and different countries have weekends on different days and theres the issues of every country having different back holidays. So i think that rules out networking days.
Is there away where i can get the query to check if the previous day had and entry and keep going back until it finds the next entry?
I tried an iif statement but i am new to Access and i could not get it to work.
I have tried iif(date()="0",date()-1) that seems to work but i can not get it to work any futher? HELP????
I've got this query whereby i would like to find the address information about people by a keyword search on either their name or their quickname which currently looks like this:
SELECT Tbl_Addresses.* FROM Tbl_Addresses WHERE ((((Tbl_Addresses.Name)OR(Tbl_Addresses.Quickname) ) Like "*" & [Enter a Name] & "*"));
However this doesn't return any results? it works if i search for just the Tbl_addresses.Name or the Tbl_Addresses.Quickname but not for both? does anyone know how to fix this problem?
