General :: From Given Name In First Table Search For Same Name In Second Table
Jun 11, 2013
Access 2007. I have the start of a family history database containing two tables with very similar data.
First table:
FILTERED Births 1837-2005
IDGiven_Name Location County Town Year
1 Eliza Ann England Yorkshire Leeds 1837
2 Elizabeth England Norfolk Aylsham 1837
3 Isabella England Lancashire Preston 1837
and
Second Table:
FILTERED Deaths 1837-2006
ID SURNAME GIVENAMES LOCATION COUNTY TOWN YEAR
1 FRANKLAND Alice England Lancashire Clitheroe 1846-1855
2 FRANKLAND Ann England Lancashire Clitheroe 1837
3 FRANKLAND Barbara England Yorkshire Whitby 1837
My problem; from the Given_Name in first table I want to be able to search for the same name in the second table probably using the Town field to narrow the search down. As an example;
FILTERED Births 1837-2005
ID Given_Name Location County Town Year
16 Birtwistle England Lancashire Haslingden 1838
FILTERED Deaths 1837-2006
ID SURNAME GIVEN NAMES LOCATION COUNTY TOWN YEAR
18 FRANKLAND Birtwistle England Lancashire Haslingden 1838
This show that Birtwistle died as a child, but it is also an easy match to spot due to the unusual given name.
I have a table called BID with the following fields
bidder, seller, iid, starttime, bidtime, and bidprice
bidder is an id number that is reference to uid of table USER
the USER table have the following fields,
uid, uname, city, and state
I created a BID form for the user to enter data into the BID table. What I am trying to do but is having trouble with is have the user search for their name that may already be store in the uname field in the user table, and what ever they choose base on their search, the uid of this uname gets store into the bidder field of the bid table.
I still have a second step where the user in the bid form can search the iid but shows the itemname from the item table, and the value of seller, iid, and starttime from the auction table gets populated into the bid table.
iid from the auction table is reference to the itemtype and the following fields exist in the itemtype table.
We have a form with a field Drawing No from the Table Job Register
I want to be able to take the first part of the drawing number and display all matching items from the quote details table.
Aesthetics I can sort later.
I've created a query Item History.
My intention is to have a command button on the form Job Register that runs the query qryQuoteHistory displaying matching results.
My issues are as follows: drawing numbers are sporadic in length and information ie: kk80 a2-19520 a2-19520 rev a e8 1128215 issue d
Retrospectively I would have had issue or revision number in a separate field, or better yet have a products table and link the info there. Unfortunately this isn't the case.
I have a master data table containing 4 columns and ~ 500K rows. I have a list of keyterms from column1, column2 and column3. How do I use Access to search the masta data table and return the corresponding column4 value for each row on the list.
I have an MS Access accdb with linked SQL Server 2012 ODBC tables. I am working on a procedure to copy data from local tables to these linked tables (identical schema). I did a simple
Code:
DoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO linkedTable SELECT * FROM localTable"
This works, but is very slow. Way too slow. (INSERT copies the data one record at a time).
I would like to copy the data in a bulk operation, or operations that I can execute programmatically.
I have one DB that is used for creating/storing customer ID's, and another DB that is used for creating/storing job information for customers.I have linked the table from the customer DB to the job DB.
There is a table in the job database that holds customer name and ID, and some VBA that generates unique job codes.
Is it possible to have the data from the linked table automatically update into the existing table?
I have a database that is designed with a front and back end, with the FE linked to the BE. Some potential customers want to play around with the database, and the easiest way for me to get them access to it would be for me to combine the FE and BE and just give them a copy of that. how to link a table, and I know how to import a table. What I'm unsure of is how to cleanly convert a linked table to a local table.
MP No (Primary key), Sales, Date Entry, Specs, Email
The second Table is as follows:
MP No, Quantity, Description, DWG, Price
There is a "one-to-many" relationship between the two tables through the MP No field so whenever I go to the first table there is a sub-table for each MP No. Correct?can I create an extra sub table under the sub table already created?
I am trying to use a combo box to select the Company in an input record form for my Transactions. In the Transaction table, each record contains the Company ID, but not the company name (I have a relationship with a Company ID primary key in a separate table that has all the companies information).
I would like to be able to select the proper company in the combo box and have the form save the value as the Company ID number with the rest of the input data in a record (it will then refer to the correct company name in the other table if I query it because of the ID key).
I have to import a file from an external website into a table (tableA) that I have established. The issue is that I don't need all that data, just specific ones (the website does not allow me to select the specific data to export). I created another table (tableB) to capture the data that I require for my report.
How do I take raw data from tableA to append to tableB the required fields that I want?
I have a table being filled everyday that contains the following:
ID EntryDate Ward_ID (linked to the Wards table) Census
At present, the data encoder manually chooses the ward via drop-down list to identify the ward, and fill the census field. Since we have 20 wards, we find this exercise eating our precious time (since we have tons more of data to enter aside from the census). I'm wondering if there's a way to automatically list all the wards in the table in a specific date, so that the encoder would just proceed in filling the census per ward.
One idea thrown was to design the table like an excel sheet (each ward has its own column). Another idea was to make individual tables per ward and make a default value for the ward_id. However I think these two are not the right directions.
I'm trying to update one table's field, via a Form, with certain data from another existing table in my DB when I enter key data in this first form. Example:
Table Equipment ... Some columns... Year, Make, Model, LIcPlate, etc.
Table Fuel ... Some columns... Year, Make, Model, LicPlate, Fuel Dispensed, Milage, etc.
Form for Fuel has Year, Make, Model, LicPlate, Fuel Dispensed, Milage, etc. BTW, it will take Year, Make and Model to fully qualify the search/lookup as there may be more than one occurrence of a Year and Make in the Equipment table, so Model is necessary to fully qualify. . Yes, something like VIN would be a simpler lookup but remembering a VIN is much harder than entering a Year, Make and Model.
In a Form over Table Fuel, I want to have the LicPlate field (possibly other fields as well) automatically updated from Equipment Table when I enter the Year, Make and Model in that form.
I'm assuming the solution involves creating VB code, of some such, via an Event (AfterUpdate) or some such built through the LicPlate field in the Fuel form. A mass Update via SQL is not appropriate.
1. I have a table which lists all of the equipment we use in our company and would like to use it as a template in a form so that users can select a checkmark if the equipment is being used that day. The checked items would then be used to populate another table which records all of the equipment the user has selected. I thought the checkmark method would be best so that the user can scroll through the list of equipment and select multiple pieces for the day. The reason I don't use a multi-value field is so that the user can also enter quantity and hours of equipment used in the same table when they scroll through the list.
2. Once all of the equipment pieces have been checked, I would like the user to be able to click a review button which would navigate to the next form with all of the selections for the day. This new form will have the option to go back to the first form if any corrections need to be made. And also have the option to submit the results.
3. Once the user is finished with their selections, the user can then select Submit which will finalize the recorded equipment table and clear the checkboxes and any inputs from the equipment template table (without modifying anything) so that it can be used for the next day and so forth.
I have a database that is used in our office. It is split with the backend stored on a network share.
I need to make some updates, and to do maintenance I usually make a copy of the frontend/backend to my desktop, and use the linked table manager to switch to using the local copy of the backend so I don't mess up the main data. All good so far.
however, I recently added a new table, and originally called it "overRides", I then decided that "adjustments" was a more suitable name and changed it.
Now whenever I try to switch from the main backend to my local copy I get a message when relinking "adjustments" that Access cannot find the object "overRides" and to make sure it exists and the name is spelled correctly...
I have been just deleting the linked table and reimporting "adjustments" but this issue keeps coming back and it's driving me nuts!
How can I make Access forget that this table used to be called "overRides"?
I split my db to front-end and back-end. 20 users are using the database. But now I have the problem: In my admin front-end db I created a new table and some reports to the table, but this new table I have only in my front-end db and it doesnot appeares in back-end db - so that other users has no data in hte report for the new table. How I can create new table to be in back-and table too?
I would like to know how to add new records into a table from another table.
I have 2 tables A & B.
A is the main file and if customers wanted to add new data into table A and if he clicks on add records in table A then table B needs to open. So that they want to add records in Table B. Later we will update table A from B.
Apologies if this has been covered lots before, I searched and couldn't find anything. I am very new to this side of Access so simple instructions would be appreciated. I'll try to explain it as clearly as I can also.
I have a table with a bunch of fields detailing a job going through our factory.
There are hundreds of these records, so the user must be able to search to view only the ones they want to see.
So I created a form with some combo boxes/text boxes, each labelled for a different field, so they can choose PO number, customer name, supplier name, out date OR job status, and view all the records with a certain criteria attatched to one of those fields.
Problem is, I want them to be able to search for all jobs from a certain supplier AND a certain outdate. Or any combination of those 5 fields, maybe filling in all of them, or 4 or 3 or 2 or just 1. At the moment they can search by one of them, then press the button, and I have a different query for each one.
Have I explained that well enough? Please ask if I need to make something clearer. Hope somebody can help.
Hi, Im trying to, upon the click of a forms button, search the records in one table for all records matching a certain number. I then want to update another table with all these records...but am stuck in the coding. This is what i have so far...
Set db = CurrentDb() Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("tblAllInfo", dbOpenDynaset)
With rs .MoveFirst Do Until .EOF If .Fields(1).Value Is 1 Then
event_num = .Fields(1).Value Sport = .Fields(2).Value team = .Fields(3).Value Date = .Fields(4).Value Time = .Fields(5).Value
rs.Update
Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("tblCurrentEvent", dbOpenDynaset) rs.AddNew rs![Event_No] = event_num rs![Sport] = sport rs![Team_Player] = team rs![Date] = Date rs![Time] = Time DoCmd.OpenForm "frmInfo" 'whose record source is tblCurrentEvent
But I really need to be updating the latter table within the loop but dont know how to do that without resetting the loop pointer?? Or would it be better to create a form for tblAllInfo. Any help would be appreciated! Tania smile
Hi everybody, How I can set a query to search in all table fields. In my table I have around 48 fields and I want to search for particular value from combo box if this value exists in any of those fields.
Hello all, once again I would very much appreciate anyones help on what may be quite a simple issue,, my problem (or one of!!) is as follows: I have a table that contains approx 3k records I wan to run a query that allows me to select a certain number of fields with a group. From this I mean, I have all records grouped by discipline, firstly its easy for me to determine the discipline I require (I do this in the design view by adding the discipline number in the criteria row.) next I want to find a certain number of the records that are within my chosen discipline,, the records I wan to see all contain the word ‘alignment’. I tried entering ‘alignment’ on the criteria row but that didn’t get me anything,, the field that contains the word alignment also has many other words listed… Please help Many thanks Jon
I'm a newbie (I know nothing in VBA & SQL but I'm learning) and I've a database of 10 tables. I want to make a query & form to search through these tables and display results(in a form & report) according to the search criteria.
I have 2 table in ms access (Table A and table B).I am doing a search function which able to search the record on this 2 different table. how to do that? how to set the source?
Here is the coding for me to search record just only from Table A but i would like to make it search on Table B as well.. :confused: Private Sub btnSearch_Click()
Me.frmsubTableA.Form.RecordSource = "SELECT * FROM TableAQuery1 " & BuildFilter
' Requery the subform Me.frmsubTableA.Requery End Sub
