Can I use the Like command in an If Then statement? I'm getting a syntax error
If [Primary1Name] Like 'PO*' Then
MsgBox "You cannot use a post office box address. Use a residence address.", vbOKOnly, "Incorrect Address Information"
DoCmd.GoToControl "Primary1Address1"
Else
End If
Hi,
I need help with the following question.
I got the following error when loading up a form:
IIf(Not IsNull([SubJobName]) Or [SubJobName]<>"",[SubJobName],[JobName]) AS Expr1, [SubJobs].Status
Can you have IIF statement in the query expression? because it said "Syntax
error in string in the above query expression".
The full codes i have in the form load is
Private Sub Form_Load()
strSQL = "SELECT [Jobs].JobID, [SubJobs].IndustryNo, [SubJobs].ClientNo, [SubJobs].JobNo, [SubJobs].SubJobNo, IIf(Not IsNull([SubJobName]) Or [SubJobName]<>"",[SubJobName],[JobName]) AS Expr1, [SubJobs].Status"
strSQL = strSQL & " FROM [SubJobs] INNER JOIN [Jobs] ON ([SubJobs].JobNo = [Jobs].JobNo) AND ([SubJobs].ClientNo = [Jobs].ClientNo) AND ([SubJobs].IndustryNo = [Jobs].IndustryNo)"
strSQL = strSQL & " WHERE ((([SubJobs].Status) = -1))"
Me!ListBox_Jobs.RowSource = strSQL
End Sub
Thank you in advance
What is the syntax error in this Insert Into statement ?
INSERT INTO RawData(RunID,fullName,name,category,type,subType, numberOfLines,virtual,date,namespace) SELECT 257 ,fullName,name,category,type,subType,numberOfLines ,virtual,#1/3/2007#,namespace FROM RawData WHERE namespace ='customer.demo' AND RunID =256
Hello,
I'm new to working with Access Iif statements. I'm attempting to change data values in an existing table for column named "Status." Some of the data in this column has the correct value (Active) that needed represented, while the rest is populated with either a "J" which is Active or "T" which is inactive. I needed an update query that will ignore any values that are already "Active," and convert any values that are "J" to Active and values that are "T" to "Non Active." Any help would be greatly appreciated. Below is the function I have written that's full of syntax errors:
IIf(([STATUS] T,"T") = "T", then "Non Active"), IIf([STATUS] J,"J") = "J" then "Active"), else Active = "Active"))
Hello,
Hopefully this is an easy one! but for the life of me i can't see what im doing wrong , help is appreciated.

I'm trying to replace a null value with $0.00 for the second field in a query. My first try at the SELECT stmt did not contain any solution for a NULL value. The result was that it skipped the record. I need it to show 0.00 because the field is used in another calculated field.
My SQL:
SELECT tblRecovery.CustID, IF((Sum([tblRecovery.RecAmt]) IS NULL, 0.00, (Sum([tblRecovery.RecAmt]))) AS SumOfRecAmt
FROM tblRecovery
GROUP BY tblRecovery.CustID;
This returns : Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression 'IF(( etc.
After clicking "OK", access highlights AS in the statement. I'm not sure how to deal with the NULL value or fix the error?
I am getting a syntax error on my SQL statement.
On a form I have a sub form containing the field txtGuestID - whose control source is GuestID.
On the main form I have a button that fires the code below.

Dim iProductID As Integer
Dim sSQL As String
On Error GoTo cmdInbound_Transport_Err

I'm using the following for a field in a query:
ITINERANT: IIf([Day and Time1] Is Not Null,[Day and Time1],IIf([Day and Time2] Is Not Null,[Day and Time2],IFF([Day and Time 3] Is Not Null,[Day and Time 3],IFF([Day and Time 4] Is Not Null,[Day and Time 4],IFF([Day and Time 5] Is Not Null,[Day and Time 5]," ")))))
I'm getting the error message: Syntax error (missing operator).
I'm not very good at using the IIF statement.
I have 5 concatenated fields that may or may not have info.
I want to display all of the info or if blank; show nothing in the one field.
Also, would I be able to have a return after each of the 5 concatenated fields?Not sure how to do that in this statement?

My issue is that I am trying to update a date field. When I do the date field may have a date or may be a null. When I try to pass in a NULL date with no quotes, I get a syntax error. When I have single quotes in the statement and a null value is passed in, I get an invalid use of date.

I'm trying to run a very basic iif statement to correct hourly data for sorting. Basically, a trading day runs from 8am - 8am, so I need to adjust the hours to ensure that 1am on the 15th trading day (really the 16th on the calendar), comes after 9am on the 15th trading day (which will actually be the 15th on the calendar).
Here's what I've used. It's driving me bananas, because it keeps telling me that there's a syntax error (comma) in the query expression, but I can't understand why?
Sort2: IIf([DELIVERY_HOUR]<8,[DELIVERY_HOUR]+24,[DELIVERY_HOUR])

I have a program that has a "GC" Button that I click on which takes me to a General Contractor Form. It works perfectly unless the Firm has an apostrophe in it's name. For example "D'Agostino". (refer to attached DAgostino1.jpg). When I click on the GC button, I get the attached Syntax error, (Syntax on DAgostiono.jpg).
The third attachment (GC Firm Button Code.jpg) shows the VBC for this button.
how to fix this error?

I have created a form based on a query. The funny thing is when I tried to sort fields on the form, the following message box pops up:
Syntax Error (Missing Operator) In (Field Name)
I just did the exact same thing several weeks ago, and that first form could sort fields normally. The only difference between the first one and this is that this second query was based on several tables, while the first was based on a single table, although I doubt that is where the problem is.
I forgot to add that I could sort fields where the field name doesn't have spaces in it. For example, the field name "Customer ID" triggers the syntax error, while the field "S/N", "Company", etc. can be sorted like normal.
I have the following statement entered in the query criteria section.
SELECT MAX(EDRMPeriod) FROM EDRAppC WHERE EDRMPeriod Between DateAdd("yyyy",-1,DateSerial(Year(EDRMPeriod),Month(EDRMPeriod)+1, 1)) AND DateSerial(Year(EDRMPeriod),Month(EDRMPeriod)+1,1) GROUP BY EDRCHPlan
I am getting a syntax error. This statement runs fine and produces the results I want in Queryman.
Thanks for any help.

I have a routine than has been working perfectly up to now. My save routine was called by clicking a Command Button called cmdAdd.
I tried to change this Command Button to a toggle button by deleting it then creating the toggle button, naming it cmdAdd and clicking on the event property to link it to the existing procedure. PS It is an UnboundForm
BTW, I've done this for several other commands without a problem but with this particular case I get the following error
Run Time Error 2115.
The macro or function set to the Before Update or Validation Rule is preventing Access from saving etc."
It seems likely that I need to do something to the toggle properties.
It allows the docmd.save but still says "You must save the current field before you run the Requery action"
The system is looking to save/update and something is stopping it. Funny though that this doesn't occur with Command Button
I have tried decompiling, compact and repair, commenting out every line that involved updating a field or variable (Except for a recordset operation that does correctly do the updates required)
BTW the Toggle button has no Before or After Update events - Only the On_Click
