I have 2 gig of order data which has duplicates due to different invoice dates. How can I combine the dates into one cell so I only had one row of Order data.
i.e. order number, price, order date, invoice date
same order number, same price, same order date, different invoice date.
How do I combine the second line with the first so that I only have the data once.
Watch the below tables.
I have a large ACCESS list as per the left one and I would like to make it as per right.
The problem is that I want to concatenate the "invoices" in one record separated with a coma , .
This is the only way I can compact the long list into a short one and make it comprehensible.
The invoices , in one cell, very rarely are more than 4 or 5 items.
So room for 6 is just perfect.
i need to Concatenate a fields data into one cell in a query according to linked table ID....
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have to concatenate the data in multiple records into one record. They have "skus" associated with them.
I have two columns.
ColumnSku: Which contains a product sku
ColumnModel: Which contains a model numbers
ColumnSku can contain the same sku hundreds of times
ColumnModel can contain the same model several times but not for the same sku
What I need to do is this: For every time a sku is shown in ColumnSku, take the model in ColumnModel and join them together separated by a comma.
For example
ColumnSku|ColumnModel
SKU1111|Model11111
SKU1111|Model22222
SKU1111|Model33333
SKU1111|Model44444
SKU1111|Model55555
SKU9999|ModelHHHHH
SKU9999|ModelJJJJJ
SKU9999|ModelMMMMM
Would end up like this
ColumnSku|ColumnModel
SKU1111|Model11111,Model22222,Model33333,Model44444,Model5 5555
SKU9999|ModelHHHHH,ModelJJJJJ,ModelMMMMM
How do I do this?
I have a complex database app that has a form called from the main form. It requires two inputs: BeginningDate and EndingDate and I use a calendar picker for date selection. Using data assigned to a variable, I build the SQL query in VBA. The result is:
Code:
SELECT [1733_All Print Orders].[Application], Sum([1733_All Print Orders].[TotalImages]) AS SumOfCCPC
FROM [1733_All Print Orders]
WHERE [Application] = 'CCPC' AND [StatementDate] >= #9/3/2013# AND [StatementDate] <= #9/30/2013#
GROUP BY [1733_All Print Orders];[Application]
[1733_All Print Orders] is a defined query that combines 4 tables together and there are data that falls within the dates for CCPC. But the query returns no records.
I pasted the query to the query builder and using different combinations, I isolated that the [StatementDate] >= #9/3/2013# portion is what returns no records
To complicate matters even worse, prior to today, it worked. I made some adds and changes to another area of the application, but did not touch this code.
I have subform (Datasheet) is there some code e.g. after update, which can adjust size cell to lenght of data?

Field1
Field2
Field3
I need to concatenate these three fields into one but for each record the order can be different. What I want to do is have another field in the table to store the concatenation order as the field names not the field values.
I also need to display the concatenated field as the actual field values and not field names in a form or a report
So if field4 was the concatenated field store it would store the information like this
[Field1] & " " & [Field3] & " " & [Field2]
In a form or a report
Field4 should show as Values of those fields

I am looking into re-creating something I have created in Microsoft Excel into Microsoft Access.What I do in the Excel spreadsheet, is when I type in an order number, various fields in the spreadsheet are populated using vlookups and ODBC's.
I wish to re-create this in Access but not sure how. I have a basic form, with various fields such as, order number, part number, description, quantity.What I have in my mind is that I would like to be able to type in an order number, then the rest of the fields would be populated by a query to a SQL Server database.i can see a way to do this using VBA but would rather look for a more direct way if possible.
I have a table called Packages, in this table I have multiple fields with just short dates example of fields (ID), (Home_1), (Home_2), (Home_3) and (Home_4). What I was wondering is there a way to comine all of the Home fields into one for the purpose of counting the number of dates for all the records. Total number of dates of all the Home fields? I am using Access 2010
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have five address fields:
add_1
add_2
add_3
city
county
zipcode
What I want to achieve on my (Word) letters, forms, reports etc is a concatenated list that does not have any blanks!!
city, county and zipcode will always be filled however it is possible that add_2 and add_3 could be blank. I hope I am explaining this correctly?
How do I achieve this? I envisage a query which produces just one list that I can just add to my documents but I am struggling with the formula to ignore the blanks.
I have a parameter set on the query at run which filters by Region i.e. the box pops up and they enter a criteria..I would like to have a field entered next to Email that would take all the Email Addresses in my query result and concatenate them so essentially I have an email list I can pop in Outlook.
Or alternatively, a solution to allow access to these email lists via a button on a form. It has to be something very simple for an end user to access. For instance right now, to get there list they hit a button to run the query then enter the parameter then if desired, hit another button to export to excel. Today, they use Excel for everything and are used to having the concatenated email addresses in one cell in excel. For this reason, I am trying to have the email addresses concatenated in the query results to mimic what they are used to today. But I am not sold on it if there is a better way that is easy for them.
What's the best way of storing arrays of data within a cell? Or should I be creating fields to the size of the array.The size of the arrays are unknown at the moment.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to concatenate two text fields into a memo field using an expression in a select query. My problem is that the text fields together end up more than 255 characters, so I need the resulting field to be a memo instead. I can't change the underlying text fields to memo fields because this is a large database used by others who need those fields to be text.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a table which holds the status of peoples orders. It holds information on order_id, order_status, order_desc, letter.
A letter is printed for each of the different statuses. However for one status i need two different letters to be printed.
How can i insert two values into the same cell.
So far i have done
insert into order_status (order_id,order_status,
order_desc, letter) values('025', 'Dispatched', 'Black tailored coat ','DPT notification');
This prints the DPT notification fine but i need another letter to print along with this.
My friend extracted some text from a PDF file, pasting it into Excel, and needs to find certain pieces of information. Problem is, the text came out as a long string instead of being broken into cells.
So, what we need to do is find, within the text, the 1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th, 9th, 11th and 13th times the word "Principal" appears, and then report back the name that follows. Within the text, it would read something like
(1234 Principal John Doe)
The number in front of it will change or be in a different format, there are other parentheses in the text (varying number of times within the text), and the name changes, of course. We want to extract the name following the word "Principal"... but only the odd-numbered times they appear. Some cells will have as few as six "Principal" entries, others as many as fourteen.
The Format Painter seems not to work in Access 2010.The Format Painter button is not in Home / Text Formatting, where you might expect to find it.I create a New Group and add the Format Painter icon. I cannot then use it. It stays greyed out.I add Format Painter to the Quick Access menu. It stays greyed out.If I view a form in Layout mode, I can sometimes get the Format Painter icon to highlight - but I cannot select just a single cell whose format I wish to copy.
Where use of the Format Painter is documented..How to do a very simple thing: copy a format from one cell in a subform to another.
I currently have an access database for tracking company assets and performing maintenance tasks on them.We also have a number of Stores Stock Items that are controlled under a separate finance package.We currently have forms that create individually numbered "Job Cards" in the Job Cards Table..we input the data and manually type into a Text Box the we have used 'X' number of Store Stock 'Item Y'
I have then use a query to export the data i need (Job number, dates, location and Store Stock Items).But I have to manually re-construct the data and items into separate lines in an excel sheet for a paste operation into the finance package (lots of typing of 16 digit stock codes)
What i want is to use a second table (linked via the "Job Card#" key).It will be called "Stock Items" which has a separate field for each of our stock items.the user then just opens second form while creating the job that immediately creates a new record.The user then simply has to put the number of each item used in the relevant text box on the form and close.
example of datasheet view
Job# __ ItemX __ ItemY
2417_____3_______7
Now, I have all of that working as I want, But i nee to be able to combine the data from each field into a single field (either in access or excel).What I want to see is a field containing 3x ItemX, 7x ItemY, etc
if there are none of one or more items, I don't want anything displayed for that item (blank space is ok)I have 30 or more stock items, so there will be 30 or more columns in the table. the actual data stored in the table is simply the quantity of each item used.
this data is used twofold,on export to Excel I can split the data into new cells and it's used on a despatch note that is returned with the item so the end user can see the items that were used in the repair.So it needs to be done upon saving the record, record by record.

I use following function to concatenate data from multiple rows into a single row/field. It puts a comma ',' after each concatenate. What I would like it to do more is to put 'and' instead of comma between the last two concatenated words. For example: Now it gives me Value 1 but I want to get Value 2.
Value 1:

DC-190 Political parties, CSOs, community residents
Value 2:

I have imported an Excel table with a column which has several values in one cell separated by "". In my case names of institutions afiliated with a patent. Example of the format of a single cell: MASSACHUSETTS INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY (US) RIVE TECHNOLOGY INC (US)
In order to normalize the Access database I would like to extract the institutions to a separate table (institutions) and that the patent is related to both institutions.

how to combine 3 field into 1. For instance. I have a customer table with company name, branch, floor, department. then i am gonna create a query called customerextended and combine all these 3 field so that I can select them in the combobox.
I have a sample here but I just dont know how to edit it...
"Company name: IIf(IsNull([department]),IIf(IsNull([companyname]),[floor],[companyname]),IIf(IsNull([companyname]),[department],[companyname] & " " & [department]))"
So I have two tables. One table "tbl_SRVASSET" lists out servername, serialnumber and asset tag. Second table "tbl_SRVNIC" list out the same servername, IPAddress and IPAddressTypeDesc.
The issue is that I have records in the "tbl_SRVNIC" with the same server listed numerous times (because it has 2 or 3 NIC's). So there is obviously a one to many relationship betweeen the two tables (common I guess). What I'm trying to do is be able to take the servers in the "tbl_SRVNIC" table and a new table or create a query with a single record for that server and have all 2, 3, 4 or maybe more IPAddress's assigned to them listed in the same record. This is what I'm having trouble with...
The end result is that after I've got this new table that lists only a single server and it's associated NIC's in the same record I can then combine that data with the "tbl_SRVASSET" via a basic query so my end result is a brand new table "tbl_SRVDETAIL" that looks like this:
SERVERNAME, SERIALNUBMER, ASSET, SERVER NIC1 IPADDRESS, SERVER NIC1 IPADDRESSTYPE DESC, SERVER NIC2 IPADDRESS, SERVER NIC2 IPADDRESSTYPE DESC, SERVER NIC3 IPADDRESS, SERVER NIC3 IPADDRESSTYPE DESC, (and maybe more columns if there are more, but that is a variable as some servers have 2 NIC's, Some with 3 or more so...).
Hi,
Is there any way that i could extract data from a single cell inside the table to the forms, and vice-versa?
I have a form that is based on a query that returns all the students taught by an indidual faculty member. There are two text boxes which I have added to the form bound to a table used in the query. However when I try to add data (attendance data) is doesn't accept it and simply "pings" each time I try.

Is there a way to combine four fields into one field in the same record? I am trying to build Equipment Code field by using the abbreviated values of Category, Item, Type and Dimension fields.
Example: if Category=Storage System (SS), Item=Wire Deck (WD), Type=Flared (F) Dim=42x52 are the user selected values the corresponding equipment code field would be: SS-WD-F-42x51 This is done in order for all users of the database to build a proper code in the correct format.
What I have so far: I have the four fields and the equipment code field setup in a form, the equipment code text box has a control source of: =[Category] & "-" & [Item] & "-" & [Type] But when I select values of the four fields and the equipment code is populated I try to save the record and I get an error stating that the Equipment code field needs to be filled out. Three fields (Category, Item, and Type) are look-ups from other tables and Dimension is typed in.
