I am creating a simple inventory db. I have a form that we enter into the table inventory. Right now we enter in everything once as inventory, then again to out to coating or ship to customer. I’m looking for the code to create a button enter the record twice but make two fields change.
So in short terms I want the form to enter a record with all the data as displayed. Then create another record with all the same data but the quantity would need to change to a negative and the Status would change to “Coating”.
I know this code won't work but this is what I want to do.
This is a tough one. I am developing golf management software. There is a table of caddies. And there is a table of members. The Caddies carry two bags each one for each member. They are assigned their jobs through an assignment form. Therefore, a single caddie will carry for Member1 and Member 2.
Now I need to produce a report of how many times each member plays. So how can I query the assignment table where Member 1 and Member 2 fields exist so that I can have a single field of allMembers so that I can count their rounds in a report.
I have a table of ~165k records and need to delete records that are similar (2 or more records have the same lastname, firstname, dob). These records are not duplicates as other field values in these records are different. I've tried several sql scripts and Access methodologies but can't get valid results.
I have a query that accesses data from 6 tables. The query displays 6 records where as there are 7 records that have to be displayed. The one record it doesnt display is similar to other records. I dont know why its not being displayed. Kindly help.
This may be a simplistic question but I'm having some diffuculty figuring it out. I have multiple rows of data where I need to use the "Unique Values" property in my query to limit only what I need. However, I have a "time" field and their are similar times on different records. So say I have a 100 records but 8 of them have the same "time" value, how can I use someting like the "Unique Values" property to get my rows down from several hundred to 100, but not lose the 8 similar rows and end up with 92 rows, when I have to turn around and sum these times and need all the times to be there?
Maybe I'm approaching it the wrong way and should be doing a SUM of "times" to begin with for that field, but I'm not being able to get that to work either. Any suggestions? /Thanks
I have a query that shows member check-ins to a fitness facility. Customer scans their membership card and it logs their customer id, scan date/time (date and time are one field), name, etc. Sometimes the customer will scan their card multiple times if they've left and come back, but I only want to count their first scan. I have a second query that runs off of this one and counts visits by hour for a date range.
So my question is, how do I filter out subsequent scans on each day in a query and how do a I do that when running the query for multiple days? So in the multi-day query I want to count each day they came, but only the first scan of each day? How to do this in the query design grid...
Hi guys, need your help again with the following problem i'm having. I'll give an example to make the problem clear. I have a table, eg table 1 with the following records: Tag________Desc________Msgno____DateTime 016GB001___Alarm OFF___1403______21/4/06 11:02:02 016GB001___Alarm OFF___1605______21/4/06 11:02:02 034GB005___Alarm ON____1403______21/4/06 11:02:04 016GB001___Alarm ON____1403______21/4/06 11:02:07 016GB001___Alarm ON____1605______21/4/06 11:02:07 048GB001___Alarm OFF___1403______21/4/06 11:05:31 048GB001___Alarm OFF___1605______21/4/06 11:05:32 048GB001___Alarm ON____1403______21/4/06 11:06:51 048GB001___Alarm ON____1605______21/4/06 11:06:52
I need a query that looks at records with similar Tag fields that occur with a 1 second difference between them and deletes those with "1403" in the Msgno field. I'm a newbie and i've got no idea where to start. The query should return the following records: I have a table, eg table 1 with the following records: Tag________Desc________Msgno____DateTime 016GB001___Alarm OFF___1605______21/4/06 11:02:02 034GB005___Alarm ON____1403______21/4/06 11:02:04 016GB001___Alarm ON____1605______21/4/06 11:02:07 048GB001___Alarm OFF___1605______21/4/06 11:05:32 048GB001___Alarm ON____1605______21/4/06 11:06:52
I hope the problem is clear. I know this is going to be one heck of a challenge, and i'm not sure whether this can actually be done in access!! Anyhelp from anybody would be enormously appreciated. Hope to see a solution soon!!
I am trying to write some code to search for similar strings. I am creating a database with records that all contain street addresses. These addresses may have more than one record attached to it, and we would like for folders to be created containing the records with similar street addresses. Problem is, all the existing records are from an excel spreadsheet that did not contain any data validation, so there are several instances of:
123 Street 123 st 123 street job 1 123 st job 2 etc....
So I am trying to write code to prevent this from happening in the future, by searching the database for a similar street address and asking the user if this is the address they are trying to enter. I have been trying to do this with the DLookUp function, as such:
Private Sub ProjectName_AfterUpdate() Dim stLink, pName As String pName = Me.ProjectName stLink = DLookup("[ProjectName]", "tblMaster", "[ProjectName] LIKE '" & pName & "%'") If IsNull(stLink) Or stLink = "" Then
[Code] ....
I have worded the stLink line different ways, and have used (*) instead of (%) but nothing is working. The CODE is working, as in no errors, but it is not finding a similar project that I know is present.
I have been looking around for a while now to learn how to show in a subform similar records from the same table, and a way to link them together.
I work for a mental health organization and we have a call log database that we create a new record every time a person calls us - this allows us to track the outcome of these calls. Over the last 3 years we have about 10% repeat callers. I am trying to find a way, when creating a new entry, to see if this person has called before, and if they have, link their past contact (record) to the new contact (new record).
For example.
Caller: John Smith (555) 555-5555 (this is the new record)
in the subform, a list would populate all the 'john smith' records with an option to link or attach them to the new record.
I am making a database that has to do with Preventive maintenance. Everything is going good and I came to a problem. There are recurring events. Some are weekly monthly quarterly etc all the way to 5 years. When I put in the task and a start date and the occurrence. So Say I put in a date of a task for today and its set to monthly I want the next record to be 1/13/14 for the task and go all the way up to infinity until a box is checked making it inactive.
Is there a way to merge duplicate/similar Access 2010 records into one record?
I have an Access table with 1,000 duplicate records, although they are similar and not exact duplicates. As you can see below, some records contain information that other records do not. Yet, the primary key is the same for all duplicate records. I want to find a way to merge data from filled cells of duplicate records into empty cells for each duplicate record. I do not want to concatenate the data (i.e. combine last and first name, etc.). I only want to fill empty cells if there is a match for it in a duplicate record. I will delete the newly exact duplicate records later. Short of correcting the records by hand.
Example
Code: LastName FirstName SSN Address Phone Email Doe John 123-45-7891 123 Anywhere St. NULL john(at)gmail.com Doe John 123-45-7891 NULL (123)456-7890 NULL
Desired Result
Code: LastName FirstName SSN Address Phone Email Doe John 123-45-7891 123 Anywhere St. (123)456-7890 john(at)gmail.com Doe John 123-45-7891 123 Anywhere St. (123)456-7890 john(at)gmail.com
I have a problem in my Database system. The title of my Database is Employee Evaluation. This is my problem.. I already make the default value the txtbox a current system date. but for the next day.. the txtbox for all record should become a current system date. but only the for the new record is the current system date. the all records are not current system date... I want from the opening of my system the textbox of all records are should be current system date.
How can I make certain my user enters records on a subform before attempting to save the main form? Right now they can completely ignore the subform before saving the record.The Main form has business address, etc. on it. the subform is bound to a join table that lists the multiple categories, subcategories and sector the business is listed in for a directory.
I already have my fields set to required at the table level in the join table, and have some existing VBA in both my subform (to update edited date) and my form (to validate empty records where a certain condition is met) but that's not the issue...
How do I focus the user to enter a record on the subform to the point where they are forced to enter something and complete the subform before the record is updated.
Hi - I am working on a database where i need to update a table with a "UniquePersonID"
I have a master table which stores: UniquePersonID Surname Forename DOB SEX Postcode
This table is approx 600k records, now the problem i have is that i have further tables which contain Surname, Forename, DOB, Sex and Postcode and need to resolve these with the "UniquePersonID", unfortunatley in some cases names, DOB's may have been spelt slightly differently, (i.e. "Abbas" should have been "Abbass" or the DOB has been entered with a typo)
I have managed to do an exact match and update the majority of records but i am still left with just over 16,000 records to match manually... I have created a form which allows me to tick which boxes to search against to resolve record by record, but estimates suggest that this will take around 12 solid days work :(
Is there a way of matching similar records and coming up with a probability score that anyone out there is aware of???
I have two tables (Access 2010). One with a list of names (List1) and another with a very similar list of names (List2), but they differ in very small ways. For example, List1 might have John Smith, and List2 would have Smith, John L.; and Smith, John. List2 also has a unique ID associated with these names that I need to append to List1.
I need to design a form that will allow me to look up names in List1, and have it return all names that are similar in List2. I then need to be able to choose with record in List2 matches with the List1 entry (based on a few other columns in List2, such as birth date) and have the form add that unique ID to the List1 record.
Basically I need to design form that looks very similar to either Split Form or Subform. I have attached a print screen of what I roughly need. The form is split into two parts. In the first/top part there are some List Box/Date fields that act as filters to the bottom form, so the bottom form displays only records that match values in red. The second part of the top form has some field that require input from user and then these records are added to the bottom form. I was trying to use both Split Form and Subform and none of it is working,I have attached an example of database and this form would be based on data from Query1.
I'm looking for a query that will tell me the count of items that make up 80% of the sales per category (probably would have to use a subquery here). So if my table was:
item #, sales $ 1, $10 2, $8 3, $6 4, $5 5, $1
Total sales = $30 80% of total = $24 The number of items needed to get to 80% of total sales = 3
While there are lots of detailed issues discussed and resolved here, my problem is at a much higher level. Here's what I want to do.
I want to generate records in a file based on the user entering some 9 different values. The first two values will be used to get records from file A (they are a partial key). The values from the records in file A, plus the other values entered by the user will be used to generate records in file B. I hope this is clear enough.
I have created a query which prompts the user for each field and does the job just fine, but I want to replace the 9 individual prompts with a single form which allows the use of combo boxes for the partial key and a date picker for the single date field.
I've fluffed through creating a form with unbound controls to suit and even worked out a form of cascading combo box for the partial key, but I am struggling to find the best way to make a button at the bottom generate those records.
A nice optional would be to then display the added records (i.e. another query I guess).
Can somebody give me some pointers as to how to approach this? I've done very little in the way of Access programming, being mostly an SQL guy.
I have for some time now been fooling around with a database to keep track of several clinical trials Basicallly I have made 4 tables..2 which defines the project ( Project and visist), 1 that populates the projects ( patients) and 1 that bind the patients visits to specific dates ( appointment)
The trouble is that im Lazy :D and therfore dont want to enter the appointment data for all patients one at a time each time we get a new guniea pig since all thats diffferent is the dates he/she has to show up. Im hoping for some way to fill up my appointment table based on patientID and projectID alone.
SO this is my 4 tables... ( some unimportant fields left out)
The idea is to create a project and then add a set amount of visits to the project ( days when they have to come and get a blood sample taken) All patients involved in the project is likewise added in the Patients table and joined to a project.
Since the patients all have to come to a fixed amount of visits ( determined by the project) I was thinking I could make a form where I pick a patient from a combobox (select projectID,PatientID,PatientName) and then automatically generate a record for each visit in my Visit table where Visits.ProjectID = cboPickPatient.ProjectID and show them in a subform so I can enter the date they have to come. I hope that makes sense. ( preferably I would like to add the date also by just entering the first Visit date and the using the DaysToNextVisit to make the other visit dates or each patient, but thats a whole other problem :o )
My instinct tells me I have to do some sort of loop code but I havent figured out the details.
Can any of you guys lead me in the right direction before I loose all my hair in frustation??
This seems to me to be a pretty simple problem-making a recordset based on a projectID and the visits involved in that project but im just out of ideas:confused:
I have a form which contains a listbox. It is a multi-select listbox. And I have a button on the form which runs a report. But I want the report to only show the selected records from the listbox. The report gets its records from an underlying query. But how do I make the selected records on the listbox become the query criteria?
I have two tables with compatible data. Table 1 has 23 records and table 2 has 5 records. I am trying to make a "make Table". But instead of a table with a combined 28 results, I get 115.
