Detailed Search
Mar 7, 2006
I have a Movie db which consists of one table with columns such as Actors, Genre, Rating, etc. I currently have numerous buttons which are used to search each specific data type. For example, I can search Genre, or Year, but not both. Is there a way that I can create a form, where various items are selected and from there, a search is conducted based on the various selections? I also want to be sure that if a single field is blank, that it just ignores the field and doesn't search for "blank" fields.
Thanks so much.

Folks,
i have a report that i designed to capture some detailed information and my users say its too detailed and they cant use it that way,so they want it scaled down to that very brief format as in the attached pdf file.I conquer with them but i cant seem get beyond what i did as every table seems to be a sub table of the another thus the cause of grouping and sectioning.
Has any one done something like this before!!, or are there any ideas,tricks, examples i would look at as to meet this requirement!!!
Evey Idea is highly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance

I am creating a Sales History Report. It displays products sold by customer by Sales Rep. The groupings are Sales Rep, Customer, and Product. I am hiding the detail section which contains invoice line item records. So the report shows the product subtotal by Company. The problem I have is I need to see the product subtotals in the Sales Rep and Report Total sections also. So the report would look something like this:
Sales Rep A
Customer A
Product A
Product B
Product C
Customer B
Product A
Product B
Product C
Sales Rep A Total
Product A
Product B
Product C
Sales Rep B
Customer R
Product A
Product B
Product C
Customer S
Product A
Product B
Product C
Sales Rep B Total
Product A
Product B
Product C
Report Total
Product A
Product B
Product C
Is there a way to accomplish this without doing sub-reports?

I have a table that looks like this:
caseID
date
value
I want to create a crosstab query that looks like this:
Date1 Date2 Date3 etc etc
caseID value value value
There are 500 caseIDs in my table. Each caseID has up to 5 corresponding dates/values. Therefore I only want 5 dates as the column headings....listed as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, etc NOT the actual date (as I then end up with hundreds of column headers).
Does anyone know how to create a detailed number by each group (similar to the runningsum feature in Reports)? I know I need to somehow assign each date a "date number" but I dont' know how to.
Any ideas??

I want to automate the distribution of individuals Vacation Balance and Usage via email. The data is being pulled from 2 tables related by an Employee ID#. tbl-Employees provides the Header Info for each employee and tbl-VacLog provides the detailed Usage data.
I want the output to appear as follows in the body of the email:
Name Start Date Vac. Bal TotVacToEOY Personal Bal.
John Doe 1/1/99 120 160 8
Usage Date Hours Reason Code
1/1/13 8 V
2/15/13 12 V
3/6/13 8 V
I've got a handle on creating the email and sending but where I'm having trouble is in making the link between the two tables with the Employee ID# and printing the corresponding detail data with Parent Record.
Code below...
Option Compare Database
Sub SendMails()
Dim DB As Database
Dim RecordSetA As DAO.Recordset
Dim RecordSetB As DAO.Recordset
Dim TotalRecordsA As Integer
[Code] .....

why the code below is not functioning properly. When I type in an acronym in the textbox, it keeps saying there is an error "Run-time error '3345': Unkown or invalid field reference 'ABO'." I do have ABO in the field.
The dysfunctional code:
Code:
Private Sub btnFind_Click()
If (TxtFind & vbNullString) = vbNullString Then Exit Sub
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Set rs = Me.RecordsetClone
rs.FindFirst "[Acronym] = " & TxtFind
[Code] .....
The red highlighted line is where the debugger leads me to. Something with identifying the field? I would like to enable the search procedure to search throughout the entire records rather than just a specific field. How may I write such a line or two?

I have a form that has a subform on it. The main form shows a category of furniture and has custom navigation buttons and a search text box for asset numbers and command button that runs the search. The subform shows the asset numbers associated with that furniture category, sometimes there is only one asset number, in other cases there could be 60. There is a scroll bar to scroll through the asset numbers when there are too many to see in the initial window.
The buttons all work as they should except when I search for an asset number that is part of a category that has too many asset numbers to show in the main window. When this happens the "previous" and "next" navigation buttons do not take you to the previous or next record. All of the other buttons on the form work though - you can go to the first, or the last record, and you can search for a new asset.This is the code for the search:
Code:
Private Sub cmdAssetSearch_Click()
Dim rs As Object
If IsNull(Me.TextAsset) Or Me.TextAsset = "" Then
MsgBox "Please type in an asset number to search for.", vbOKOnly
Me.TextAsset.SetFocus
[code]....
I've also attached a picture of what I mean when I say there are more asset numbers than what the window shows.

I currently have a database with a few search forms. I recently attempted to add a box on one of my search forms to search 3 cells of a record for a key word. What happens is when I go to search, say for P0442, it does not bring up all of the records that contain that keyword in the 3 cells I have outlined. If I step down the code in the OR boxes of the query, it seems to work better but then for some reason my other search criteria , (Tracking number etc) does not work. I will upload the database for reference. I am currently working on the Search(View Only) and that is where you will find the query to work on.

I have a search form that uses a query to show results of a search, but everytime I press search everything comes up even though I have entered search parameters, even though my search requeries every time and the search used to work before I added new records today. Also when I press the query alone on the navigation pane it asks me for the parameters and then it actually works but it won't when I use my form.

1. I created a form with some search-fields which are related to a query. Then I added a Subform in which I put some more Search criteria (So that I can easily hide and unhide those additional searchfields). It sounds strange but is necessary ;-). Now I related those searchfields in the subform to the same query. When I run that query a window pops up that I should put in a value in all those searchfields which are in the subform. But I told Access that it should display all rows, if there is no value in those searchfields. Just as I did it with the Searchcriteria in the Main form. Do I have to do something special, when I have a query which is related to two Forms?
2. I want a searchfield to search in three different columns. Usually the value will just be found in one of those columns. As the Table I search is very long and has many searchfields and multiple of those will relate to more than one column, is there an easy way to do it in VBA? As I did it by using the "or" field when designing a query, but this seems very slow and unstable.

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.

So basically, what I have is a bunch of words in one memo field, for example:
dog cat cowboy tree flower
To search it, this is the code I have now.
' Check for LIKE Last Name
If Me.txtLastName > "" Then
varWhere = varWhere & "[LastName] LIKE """ & Me.txtLastName & "*" * " AND "
End If
The only problem is what I search for needs to be "in order", for example, if I search for dog, I'll get the table. But, if I seach for tree, I won't because tree was not place first. Can you please help me? Thanks a lot!

Ok, i have a search query as follows
SELECT Table1.*, Table1.[Winning Contractor]
FROM Table1
WHERE (((Table1.[Winning Contractor])=[Who was the winning bidder?]));
This works well except if the user doesn't captialize a letter or doesn't type in the full company name. Is there a way to change this search to a like search instead of an exact one?

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!
I'm trying to figure out, how to make seach form with one text field, that will accept OR statements. I have one table with fields name, category, and description.
Is there any chance to make search like this:
User will put "part of the string" OR "part of the string2".
Result will be the list of the records that include these parts of the strings in any of the given above fields (name,category,description)
I hope i'm clear enough
Thank You in Advance

Hi
Im creating a query where the user specifies a word and it will search for all entries based on that word. The problem is I dont know how to tell the system to Search for the word anywhere in the sentence at the moment it searches for a match at the begining of the sentence. I think an example is neccessary
E.g I want to search for all entries that have an "Area" word in the sentence
My system has values in a column that contain : Picnic Area, Work area etc
My current search will only work if you type Picni or Work
Im using:
Like [Enter Location] & "*"
Help Please?!?! :confused:

Hi,
I need to create a form with a search mechanism that brings up a record as soon as you start typing what you are searching for.
For example:
If I want to search for a name called Bee; as soon as I type B the database should return all names that start with B.
Does anybody know about any tutorials/articles on how to implement this please?
Any help will be very much appreciated.

I have adapted the attached searchDB for what i need - it is very good, thanks to whoever created it.
But....
What i want to do is have 2 search boxes at the top, 1 that filters down JUST the surname field and a 2nd box that searches other fields to filter.
Reason being, i have a applied it to a quotes database, we do a lot of quotes for 2 or 3 customers and i want to be able to filter them before doing a more detailed filter.
Any help appreciated

Hi
I have a table with a list of sizes in. The fields are min height, max height, min chest, max chest, and size. I am wanting to somehow make a way of imputting a height and a chest size and getting the corresponding size, so it will need to search greater than the min and smaller than the max of the height and chest.
I have tried everything that I can think of with queries and a command button with code but still cant quite figure it out
can anyone help??
Thank you
