Find Top 2 In Each Group
Nov 9, 2007
I'm trying to create a query that lists the last TWO entries (meter_read_date) and grouped by each distinct meter (meter_sn). ** In other words, I have a table with three fields (meter_sn, meter_read_date, meter_read_count), each month people input there meter readings. I want to create a query that will list each distinct meter_sn with the last two date entries.**
This is what I have, but it lists too many from each meter...
SELECT UTIL_METER_READ.METER_SN, Max(UTIL_METER_READ.METER_READ_DATE) AS MaxOfMETER_READ_DATE, UTIL_METER_READ.METER_READ_COUNT
FROM UTIL_METER_READ
GROUP BY UTIL_METER_READ.METER_SN, UTIL_METER_READ.METER_READ_COUNT
HAVING (((Max(UTIL_METER_READ.METER_READ_DATE)) In (select top 15 meter_read_date from util_meter_read ORDER BY METER_READ_DATE DESC)))
ORDER BY UTIL_METER_READ.METER_SN DESC , Max(UTIL_METER_READ.METER_READ_DATE) DESC;

Hi,
I have a table with various customer items, a current price and the date the price changed.
EXAMPLE DATA
CustID/ItemCode/DateChanged/Value
AAA 21 01/01/2004 £3.00
AAA 21 01/06/2005 £5.00
AAA 21 01/03/2005 £4.00
AAA 22 01/01/2005 £6.00
AAA 22 01/06/2005 £7.00
BBB 25 01/01/2005 £8.00
BBB 25 03/07/2005 £9.00
BBB 26 01/06/2005 £1.00
BBB 26 01/09/2005 £2.00
Note: Dates are in "dd/mm/yyyy" format. Also, not all data is in order in the table. It’s not how I would have designed it but that’s what I need to work with!
I would like to run a query that groups by custID & itemcode and also the most recent date for any price change. I would then like the query to display the relating price for the record it pulls out. (EG for custID 'AAA' and item 21, it would display the price of £5 as that is the value for the most recent price as of 01/06/2005)
I then want to link the custID & itemcode to another table that has sales in, to check that we are using the most recent price.
Is there a way I can do this via a query or do I need to put some code together?
Cheers

Despite Google I can't seem to figure this out.
I have some data in a format similar to:
Name / Style / description / speed / distance
john / driver / careful / 80 / 5500
mary / driver / careful / 70 / 7000
pat / racer / reckless / 100 / 6000
anne / driver / careful / 75 / 1000
peter / racer / reckless / 110 / 6500
don / snail / slow / 60 / 6000
I want my report to total by style, without details and to look like:
driver careful 13500
racer reckless 12500
snail slow 6000
How do you get a report to sum the group items by a specific item and to hide the details of that group summing?

I stumbled upon the Option Group function just yesterday and, happy as a clam, I created a group with 2 options in radio button style. I assigned the values to a field called Registration_Type as the 2 options are "Confirmed Registrants" and "Prospective Attendees".
[Great. That part works well. When I look at the table, a 1 or a 2 is in that field so it's great to know how to control accidental ticking of radio buttons (previous 450 records or so didn't have this option group functionality so one might easily tick one of the buttons. So one part of controlling option group I know I can handle via the table itself for now.]
The challenge is how to ensure the user always ticks one or the other ... I went back to the main table and tested the 'required entry' option for the Registration_Type field but forcing an action like this is not ideal in my mind. The usual error message vagueness for the average user is no good and I don't want to limit the user so much.
Is there a way to simply have a popup come up warning that neither radio button was ticked? Perhaps something linked to the form - i.e., maybe "after update"?? I only learned about attaching code to before and after update on controls a couple of days ago, so not sure if this would be best approach.
Just something to let the user know that nothing has been ticked in the option group as that controls in which of 2 reports the data will show up in so any record not ticked might mean a registrant being left out, which would be rather disastrous <g>.

I have been working on a simple data base for some time now (beginner level) and am still trying to improve it. I would like to do something but before that I would like to have your opinion to know if it is even possible?I have a query QryMainReport:
Start Date/Time
End Date/Time
Employee
At the moment this is what the format of my report looks like (I removed other unnecessary fields):
StartTime----------EndTime---------------Employee
12/06/2014 01:00--12/06/2014 03:00------John Smith
12/06/2014 04:00--12/06/2014 06:00------Jane Doe
13/06/2014 02:00--13/06/2014 05:00------John Smith
13/06/2014 08:00--13/06/2014 08:00------Jane Doe
I would like to do as a report. (Dates would always be from Sunday to Saturday). I am not sure it is possible to do that. I suppose first it would mean:I would have to do a query to separate the times from the dates?I would have to find a way for Access to find the unique dates and unique names?Does it mean I have to use cross tab queries?

A customer's name is SZEE. Seek him through the SName textbox with Find, and Access can't find him. (Same in the table.) Seek him with a wildcard Sz* and there he is.
I've tried it on another machine - also with Access2k - and it's the same.
Is it an Access quirk? Is there an answer? (The client asks why. Be good to be able to say.) Cheers.

I'm trying to create a Query. I have a field "Name" from the table "Products" and the field "Quantity" from the table "Deliveries". Currently, The same product name will appear several times with their quantities. I want to SUM all of those quantities together and only have the Product name appear once. If it's a diffrent product name, then sum all of it's quantities together etc. I'm having a tough time writing a proper formula, It either has syntax errors or produces more than one field, which I don't understand. I need a formula that I can insert into the design view of the query. This formula will also create a new data field to hold the information. Can anyone help?
p.s. Do I have to use SELECT for both Name and Quantity? Where do I insert GROUP BY? I'm so confused!! I've tried things like (SELECT Name, (SELECT SUM(Quantity) FROM Deliveries) FROM Products....by now where am I supposed to write GROUP BY???

I know you have probably seen this a trillion times, but being new to all this, it is discouraging to say the least! Please help...
I think maybe I should upload the database, let me know.
Here are the names:
Table name: PPM Data
Fields:
Company
PPM Month
PPM Amount
There are 10 different companies, and I need top 6 months data per each Company, to eventually only show the 6 amounts. I have tried all the equations I can find. But I don't think I am doing it right. I have tried to make 10 different queries for each company and than tried to join those queries, and that just didn't work.
I have tried Allen Browne, confusing, and I have tried Acc2002 for their equations for Top N per group, I still can't make out what they are saying without the actual database to look at.

Hi, I have just made my maiden voyage on the good ship "Security Wizard" and the water has been a little rough but as yet I still have my sea-legs intact!
Slight problem though... I want users to be able to add data to a table but not to be able to view the whole table if they try and open it in the database window. Now I know reasonable measures would just hide the DB window but I have the threat of Data Protection Auditors looming over me becuase management "forgot" to tell me security was required and it has already been breached before I used the wizard.
Anyway, I did some research on here and I found a method whereby I can set the table so only I have permission to view/add data, then I can get users to add data via a query with permissions set to Owners.
I'm really hoping that someone will come to my rescue and tell me that there's a much easier way than that...
Please....
Anyone....
Thanks, Tom.

I need to execute this query from an ASP . Net page. I'm connected to an Access 2002 DB.
SELECT tblBudget.GroupCode, tblBudget.GCDescriptioon, tblBudget.Amount
FROM tblBudget
GROUP BY tblBudget.GroupCode, tblBudget.GCDescription, tblBudget.Amount
ORDER BY tblBudget.GroupCode;
If I delete tblBudget.GCDescription and tblBudget.Amount from the "GROUP BY" instruction it does not work.
What I want to do is that in case tblBudget.GroupCode is repeated (e.g. several records with the same group code) I want to display only one line summarizing all info for the given group code.
Thank you

Hi,
I've got a database containing three tables:
=====================
tblEvent:
---------------------------
Id (PK) | Event_Title | Event_Price
=====================
=====================
tblDelegate:
---------------------------
Id (PK) | Delegate_Name
=====================
=====================
tblBookings:
---------------------------
Id (PK) | Event_Id (FK) | Delegate_Id (FK)
=====================
I need to output an HTML table with the following headings:
==============================================
Event Title | Event Price | No. Delegates Booked | Total Price
==============================================
How do I group(/join?) the tables to show this data? I'm confident with doing the recordset stuff, it's just that I have no idea how to build a SELECT string, with data grouped into events where the total number of delegates who've booked on that event will be added together.
Does this make sense?
Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

Hello,
I am using Access 97 and I am getting very stuck when I am making a group by query.
Basically I have a table which has for engineering jobs (and a few other collums):
[id], [Site Code], [Ref Number], [Job Size], [Date Origionated] and [Date Completed]
I then have made a query (called [MG - CWD SLA]) which works out for all jobs between 2 dates, how long they have been running for and if they have met the Service Level Agreeement:
SELECT Sheet1.[SITE CODE], Sheet1.[Ref Number], Sheet1.[Job Size], Sheet1.[DATE ORIGINATED], Sheet1.[JOB COMPLETE], (CalcWorkdays([DATE ORIGINATED],[JOB COMPLETE])) AS Expr1, IIf(IsNull(Sheet1.[JOB COMPLETE]),"Not finished",IIf([Job Size] Like "M*",IIf(Expr1<=10,"Y","N"),IIf([Job Size] Like "S*",IIf(Expr1<=5,"Y","N"),iif([Ref Number] LIKE "ID*",iif(Expr1 <= 1,"Y","N"),"N/A")))) AS Expr2
FROM Sheet1
WHERE (((Sheet1.[Help Desk Type])="CWD") AND ((Sheet1.[DATE ORIGINATED]) Between [Type the beginning date:] And [Type the ending date:]))
ORDER BY [DATE ORIGINATED];
I then have made a summary query based on the above query which gives me for every site, between 2 dates; the number of jobs who have met the SLA or not as the case may be.
SELECT [MG - CWD SLA].[SITE CODE], [MG - CWD SLA].Expr2, count(*)
FROM [MG - CWD SLA]
GROUP BY [MG - CWD SLA].[SITE CODE], [MG - CWD SLA].Expr2;
What I would like to do is for every like outputted by this query, give the number of jobs for this site between those 2 dates, so then for every line of the query give the percent of jobs which met the sla/not met the sla or not finished.
I have been messing around with distinct and I cannot get this to work! Also been trying to do a join or a subquery, but not sure how to integrate this with working with a query based on a query.
Any help would be great!
Thanks,
Steve

Hi there I have the following predicament,
I want to run a crosstab query on a table that looks like the below:
ID STORE RECEIVED ITEM RESPONSE
1, 123, 2006-03-30, Name, Tony
1, 123, 2006-03-30, Position, Baron
1, 123, 2006-03-30, Name, Simon
1, 123, 2006-03-30, Position, Mgr
1, 321, 2006-03-30, Name, Sarah
1, 321, 2006-03-30, Position, Analyst
The crosstab query as it stands only pulls back the first and last records as it wont allow grouping on the value field, which in this case is the response field. All other fields are row headings.
The report looks like this:
1, 123, 2006-03-30, Tony, Baron
1, 321, 2006-03-30, Sarah, Analyst
Any ideas on how I can bring back both reccords, eg Group on the all fields? It should look like this:
1, 123, 2006-03-30, Tony, Baron
1, 123, 2006-03-30, Simon, Baron
1, 321, 2006-03-30, Sarah, Analyst
Thanks for your time!
Cheers
Tony

Hi everyone. I'm having some issues creating a query i need for work. I'm able to do this on the report level with a group and footer to get this total. however due to further complexity and Queries that will call upon this one, it needs to be in the first level query i create.
What i have is a database. There are Employees, Dates Paid, timesheet dates, Pay TYPE and hours. here is an Example of a few lines of data. this is how the database is created. it creates a new record for every different pay type paid that week.
EMP#------TRXDATE------TS-DATE----TYPE-----HRS
1----------01/28/07-------01/28/07----100------44.00
1----------01/28/07-------01/21/07----100------44.00
1----------01/28/07-------01/28/07----300-------7.00
3----------01/28/07-------01/28/07----100-------1.00
what i need the query to show for this data would be
EMP#-----TRX DATE----TS-DATE-----REG(100)-OT(300)--TOTAL
1---------1/28/07------1/28/07------44--------7---------51.00
1---------1/28/07------1/21/07------44--------0---------44.00
3---------1/28/07------1/28/07-------1--------0----------1.00
what it basically is would be merging everything so that each TS-DATE would get it's own line in the Query,
any and all ideas and recommendations would be more than greatly appreciated!

Hello
I have a problem with a SQL query I build. I have a complaints database and for a listbox I need the 5 costumers with the most complaints in the database and the total amount of complaints so far. To do so I tried the following SQL query:
SELECT TOP 5 [Costumername],Count(*) AS [Count] FROM [Complaints] WHERE [Costumername]Is Not Null GROUP BY [Count];
But I get the following error message if I try to run this query: “You tried to execute a query that does not include the specified expression ‘costumername’ as part of an aggregate function.”
I noticed that a pie chart uses almost the same query (only sorted by name, and not the count) and this works, until I try to change that query to the one above. I hope someone can help me with this. Thanks!

Hi,
I was wondering if there a method in Access to allow me to count the number of items by group?
For example, I have a set of data in a table like so:
SA
SA
SA
SP
SP
BM
I can choose Group By and the data will group them like SA, SP, BM; and I can choose Count to count the total number of records, but I would like for instance to be able to retrieve the following data:
SA: 3
SP: 2
BM: 1
Currently I'm exporting the list to Excel, and then using Subtotals. It does exactly what I want, but I'm pretty new to Access and wondered if there's a different way! :)
