I'm filling in for someone who has a strange love for mail merge and now I need to covert employee history from a row to a column for the mail merge.
I currently have a list of employees and every change in position is listed as a new row. Since all employees are not the same some employees have more rows than others. What I need to do is move the history rows into columns. So what I'll end up with is one single row per employees with their history going to the right. Some employees will have more columns than others. I tried doing a crosstab but that will only let me pick one column from the original table.
I have three columns that I need repeated over and over to reflect their work history.
this is what im working with Name or ID will be the key Job start date Job title department
currently every one of theese fields is in a column but every entry has its own row.
I need a single row for every employee and the columns to repeat to the right to reflect every move.
Can someone help me :D I'm stuck :confused:
I doesnt matter if the output is in something other than access
I am just starting out learning how to connect Access to Excel. From an Access form, I need to connect to an Excel spreadsheet, and loop through every row/column to look for data that matches a database field data, then populates the associated cell data. I don't want to import the spreadsheet since the user who created it is using it manually, and I am attempting to automate the task. This is probably the most elementary code, but I would like to start out with the best way to do this. What I am finding is code that appears to be much more complicated than I need, for more complicated situations.
I have a cross tab query that displays data by customer (rows) and MONTHS (columns).
However I need the columns to be the 12 months of the year 1 to 12.
However, if the selected data for a particular customer does not have any records in a month then I get an error in the report as the cross tab query only selects the months with data.
How do I get the report to show 0 or a blank in these columns
Ive been converting .xls files to Access database files. I would like to use ACCESS to develop the Reports but the client wants the Reports to look like those in EXCEL..eg. where you have lines between rows and columns. If I could give my Access Reports the same look and feel, I could wean these guys off of Excel and into the wonderful world of relational models.
Does anyone have sqlcode or tricks I might use to create the Excel 'look alike' report in Access?
I was able to use the UNION ALL qry. But, when I have another file (like original2) that does NOT have all the columns listed in the UNION ALL qry, I get a Parameter value box asking for the missing columns when I run the qry.
original 2IDDateGroupChristianJohnny18/6/2013A212528/6/2013B2338/6/2013C2248/6/2013D22
The UNION ALL qry includes all the possible resources ( includes all the possible column fields Christan, Johnny, and Steve).
When I run the UNION ALL qry with the original2 file, An "Enter Parameter Value" box is displayed with the mssing column name "Steve".
Is there a way to Map the original2 table into a working table with all the columns, or use VBA code to construct the UNION ALL qry to only include the existing columns? My data has variable columns and I'm trying to avoid the parameter popups.
When converting the Front End of my database to an MDE, Access just hangs and says (Not Responding). I've left it our an hour and there's no sign of stirring.The Back End converts in just a second or so.
I'm affraid my confusing topic title is an indicator of how confused I am by this. I can't even understand the variables well enough to fully utilize Access Help or the Search function here...
What I have is a database hat has column headers that look something like this: Customer_Name, Order_Date, Qty_Ord, Unit_Price, Total_Price
What I'm trying to get is a query output that will have
Customer_Name, Total Orders (in Dollars) for January, Total Orders (in Dollars) for February, Total Orders (in Dollars) for March, etc.
I've been able to set it up to SUM for one month, but not multiples.
I know I'm totally lame (for proof read any of my previous posts) but you guys totally bailed me out the other time I asked a lame question.
I made a new column in a table in access. The table is not linked and linking unfortunately is not an option. In the new column, I want to create a sum for 5 years of funding. There are multiple columns for a different fiscal year.
In excel, it is simply =sum(range), but I am drawing completely blank how to fill in the column with the sum data.
The end result is the data from 4 tables will be displayed in Forms and Reports.
Essentially what I need is an ability to bulk update a column in access table without a need to reupload the entire datasheet (over 100k rows with about 30 columns).
Hello, I'm helping someone can help me with a little problem I am having with a peculiar data arrangement in Access. I have the following scenario. My table is set up with the following columns:
I have the following scenario and do not wish to use a crosstab for various reasons. I am combining three queries into one. The last query has information as follows:
Project Type Rev Budget 12345 Debt 100,000 23456 Impact 50,000 34567 Other 25,000
There are hundreds of these line items. The first two queries hold the project information as well and that would be the field that I would use to join each query. Currently the information above is in line form and I need to put it in column form to coincide with my other data. The final result needs to have the following column headings:
Please note that the first four headings come from the first two queries so I have this taken care of. how do I change the query to put the Type by line item as a column heading and sum the Rev Budget accordingly without creating a table and doing appends or update queries? Can it be done in the query where I am combining the three queries?
I have extraction report from calculation program and dont have access to tables. When I import it to MS Access it looks like attached Sheet1. Is there a simple SQL query or VBA code which will allow me to import the data to new Sheet2 table? Fields 1,7&13 will always be the same and I want them to be column names, Fields 4, 10 &14 contains data which will be different each time I delete the old calculation from Sheet1 and import a new one. I would like to be done in Access as I have to import few hundred calculations and store it in Sheet2 table.
Hi, I have data from a form on my website in a text file, that corresponds to each visitor's input, each 13 lines in the form belongs to one visitor, as shown (twice) at the end of this message.
What I would like to do is have each visitors inputs translated to ONE row, with 13 columns/fields each. It could be appended to the same table or preferably generated in a new one. Note, there are no blank fields, some won't have data after their title, i.e. addy_line_2: is often blank, but at the very least, addy_line_2: or another field name is always there.
It would ROCK if I could also automatically take the name of each field out, i.e. each name is continuous characters up to the : (colon) ...
Thanks in advance, my Access knowledge is obviously limited, I'm sure this is fairly simple!
The fields:

Is it possible to total columns in a query? Right now, I have a query that produces the following column counts, but I'd like to total Pending, Overdue, etc. This data is being displayed in a subform.
Process Pending Overdue Total ------------------------------------- Engineering 1 2 3 Procurement 0 6 6 <etc> ------------------------------------- TOTAL 1 8 9 <- this is the line I want to add
Here's what the query (qryStatusRptB) looks like thus far: Field: Process Table: tblProcesses Total: Group By
Can someone explain how to get the TOTAL ROW in here? (I can do it via another query, but that won't work since the data is displayed in a subform. I've tried crosstabs without success.)
I can't get my head around this so I'm looking for some help if possible please, there are two questions, the first is:
When in the query, I want the criteria for the date selection to be a question, ie. "[Week Start Date?]" but I want the actual criteria selection to be from the start date plus 5 days, the only way I've done that so far is to do ">=[From?] and <=[To?]", which uses two questions and I don't seem to be able to do ">=[Week Start Date?] and <=[Week Start Date?]+5" which seems basically correct, but I expect I'm writing it incorrectly (basic access knowledge I'm afraid :( )
The second question (after I've got the 5 day date criteria sorted) is that the query produces a table that shows basically the following:
Name Store Date Visited Tom Bury 18/01/06 Tom Bury 19/01/06 Tom Diss 20/01/06 Dick Thetford 18/01/06 Harry Diss 20/01/06
The query is based on a part week period with the starting date ALWAYS a Monday, so no more than Mon-Sat will appear, I want to put the information into a table or query, so the result ends up as:
Name Store Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri Sat Tom Bury 18/01/06 19/01/06 'Blank' 'Blank' 'Blank' 'Blank' Tom Diss 'Blank' 'Blank' 20/01/06 'Blank' 'Blank' 'Blank' Dick Thetford 18/01/06 'Blank' 'Blank' 'Blank' 'Blank' 'Blank' Harry Diss 'Blank' 'Blank' 20/01/06 'Blank' 'Blank' 'Blank'
*Where the blanks are simply left empty, rather than putting in the word 'blank'
Essentially converting the "[From?]" (as stated earlier) or "[Week Start Date?]" to Monday, that date + 1 to Tuesday, etc, BUT putting multiple dates relating to name and store criteria onto one record :eek:
Beyond me I'm afraid, any pointers would be seriously appreciated, I expect I'm approaching the problem from the wrong angle.

I have a table with 8 columns titled - Destination, Mon, Tues, Wed …to.. Sun. This is shown as "OriginalTable" worksheet in the attached example workbook. I want to create a new table from this original table that looks like "NewlTable" worksheet in the attached example. So I will have a new table that has 3 columns titled - Destination, Day, Weight. Weekdays will become rows so each destination will have 7 rows, one for each day of the week. The measure will be listed against each day of the week. Can someone please look at the attached example for me and help me with this.
I don't know if it is the right place to post this question, but I know many people here are good at both Access and Excel. The question is:
In an excel sheet, A1: Smith, John A2: 111 Pine St. A3: San Diego, CA A4: (555) 128-549 A5: Jones, Sue A6: 222 Oak Ln. A7: New York, NY A8: (555) 238-1845 A9: Anderson, Tom A10: 333 Cherry Ave. A11: Chicago, IL A12: (555) 581-4914
3. Fill this formula across to column F, and then down to row 3.
4.Note that the data is now displayed in cells C1 through F3 as follows: Smith, John 111 Pine St. San Diego, CA (555) 128-549 Jones, Sue 222 Oak Ln. New York, NY (555) 238-1845 Anderson, Tom 333 Cherry Ave. Chicago, IL (555) 581-4914
This is exactly what I want. And I can do step 3 manually to copy that formula to each cell. But, My question is in step 3. If I have thousands of lines, how can I fill that formula to thousands cells? from C1-C1000, F1-F1000.
I have a file structured as listed below. I need to pivot Patient Id, Patient Name, Send Reason, Provider Name and Visit Number into columns and then insert the values into the corresponding columns.
My data set contains about 1,000 rows, so I cannot simply paste special in Excel.
Patient ID 111111 Patient Name Doe, Jane Send Reason Cannot resolve provider Provider Name Doe, John Visit Number ABCD#F1234567
I have tried Pivot and Transform, neither of which seems to work.
