General :: INSERT INTO Query Cannot Contain Multi-valued Field?
Sep 10, 2012
i have table on sharepoint which i can not link to my access database so i have to import it. table on sharepoint is same as in access and i need table from sharepoint updated with my access. unfortunately this table has multi valued fields. when i import table from sharepoint it, the table gets renamed so if the original table is tablea the imported table becomes tablea1. im trying to update my table in access but then i get error "An INSERT INTO query cannot contain multi-valued field." if i remove multi valued fields from query, the query is working fine. how i can get the values into my table in access?
I have a main form with multiple sub-forms (each a separate tab). Having imported the fields from the equivalent tables, none of the multi-value combo box fields on the sub-forms work as they do not show anything. I tried implementing one on the main form (to test) and it worked fine. What am I doing wrong with the sub-forms fields?
DEVICE| DISPLAY1 | DISPLAY2 _______________________________ A | A1 | A2 B | B1 | B2
Table 2 has 2 fields, but the second is a multi-value field
DEVICE | MDISPLAY _____________________________ A | **MUTI-VALUE** based off the table 1
In the row source of the Multi-value Field MDISPLAY, I have
Select DISPLAY1, DISPLAY2 from TABLE1
The problem. I can get the MDISPLAY field to display the items from Table 1, but it grabs ALL of them.I need it to display ONLY the DISPLAY1 and 2 field associated with the value of the DEVICE for the current row in table 2, which is 'A'
SO if I look at the row of the table 2 that has the device 'A', the MDISPLAY field for that row should have.Just A1 and A2, NOT A1,A2,B1,B2(all the rows). how to access / syntax of the current value of the DEVICE field in my row source.Select DISPLAY1, DISPLAY2 from TABLE1 where table1.Device = Table2.device /or Device ... etc.. 'doesn't work
How to add a multi valued fields in a form for example a student may have multiple hobbies, access can do this using using lookup option, but access stores multiple values in one field which is difficult to analyze, looking for efficient way of adding multiple option.
The main form has textbox & a Listbox with which I filtered a datasheet inside a sub form. Everything worked fine only the listbox [Discipline] is not working !! it cuase Run-time error: 3831. The multi-valued field "[Category]" cannot be used in a WHERE or HAVING clause.So how do I filter a multivalued Listbox field [Discipline] ?

I have created a multi-valued field "Product Category" that lookups data items from a linked table. So, the Data Type for the multi-valued field "Product Category" is Number.
Now I want to change the Data Type of "Product Category" from Number to Text, and make a value list that I can type values in and can provide the same data items as the linked table.
How to change item source for the multi-valued field from a linked table to a list that I can type in values? Is there a feature provided by MS Access 2007 can enable such a conversion?

I have two fields in a table that have multiple values. Example:
Field A:
CT, CA, PA
Field B:
CT, CA
I want to compare the two fields and indicate that there is a match because in this example CT and CA are in both fields. I would like to create a function. I'm not sure if I would have to use something with like or create a loop.
I have a field in a table that I want it to be multivalued. The values are stored in a different table. I tried to do that and it worked fine. But when I wanted to display a pie chart in a report based on a query, the values didn't show up.
Example:
EmployeeName: X TermenationReasons: 1,2,3 (multivalued field - values stored in a different table)
I though of just changing the field type to a text, and create a combo box in the form that allows me to add multiple values, and appear on the table and the query, and the pie chart too.how to make a multi-valued combo box in a form.
I have a subform query which includes EventName, Date, and Tags. Tags is a multivalued field.
What I need to do is allow people to filter this subform using the inbuilt filter, and then use the filtered data to populate a graph.
I am doing this by taking the Filter property from the form and then using VBA to build an SQL statement with the right data, and using that on the graph. It works fine when people filter on the EventName and Date fields.
However, when someone filters the Tags field, it fails. The filter property gets set to something along the lines of
([Lookup_Tags].[TagName]="whatevertagtheypick")
This syntax seems not to be supported when I put it into the SQL statement.
I have a button on a subform that becomes visible if there is no records in the source of the subform. When clicked I want to run a query that will insert a record on to the source of the subform. There is one field in the query that I need to get from the parent form.The first part works OK - the button is visible when the source file to the subform for this main form record, is empty.
If I run the query against the source file it inserts the new record after it has asked for the value of the variable field.My problem is that when I try to run the query when the button is clicked It can't find form![ClientFileFrm]![ClientId]..This is my code on the subform
Private Sub Form_Load() If Me.RecordSource <> "" Then If Me.Recordset.RecordCount = 0 Then Me.AddSettingsButton.Visible = True
[code]...
The ClientFileFrm is the main form.I can't seem to reference the clientId variable back to the main form.
On my form have a status field with about 7 options to choose from a combo box, i have these values set in another table. What i would like is for my other field, which is a date, to automatically change whenever the status field is changed. So i know how long ago the status field was set. So basically if i change the status to complete i want the date to then set the date and time now.
I am having trouble using a form as input for a query. The form uses multi select list boxes, with then intention being that if I select multiple fields then only records which include those fields will show (not only fields that contain those and no others).
I also have successfully worked up some keyword searches that I would like to have run on the same query. So say I want to search for two values in my list box, and it also needs to include keyword X... how would I run these all together, or is it possible?The form is "EVR Search Form"..The query is "EVR Query - Trending Filters" and I've also made a copy to test on, "Copy EVR Query - Trending Filters"
I have spent the last couple of days trying to figure out how to make this work.
I have three tables.
tblIntakeMain [IntakeMainID]
tblIncidentDetails [IncidentdeatailsID]
tblPersonnel [PersonnelID]
On the main form I use subforms to link tblIncidentDetails and tblPersonnel to tblIntakeMain. Both subforms can, and do, have many entries. This all works fine. What is not working is the search form I am using.
I am using Gromits most excellent Search Form. The problem is when I create a query, qSearch, to bring together the three tables I get a multiple records which makes the searches very confusing and near useless. Is there anyway around this? Is there something I am missing? Is there another search method I could use that would work in a similar way as Gromits? Please help before the Prozac runs out and I lose my mind--what little it left.
I am executing a query and I want to force a value of ALL into a additional field called BUKT. How would I go about this. I need to do something similar to DATE: Now() but with a set value.
I have a field that is giving me the number of business days between a period of time and then I want to subtract that number - the person's PTO time to see the actual days they were available...when I simply type the number in (see below) it works great but I want to set up a prompt that will ask me how many PTO Days to calculate as it will be different for each person I am quering...is this possible?
Access 2010. I've had to learn it at work because our DBA was let go and I was the only one willing to give it a go. Read a book or two and picked up some stuff on the internet.
Here's my problem: I have a simple table -Employee with 4 fields. FirstName, LastName, Office and JobTitle. I have form called Form1 that has 3 control fields cboJobTitle (a combo box that is populated by a query that finds all the unique values of that field in the Employee table), cboOffice (same as above) and txtName (a text box to allow user input) that are used as the criteria for a multi-field query triggered by a button at the bottom of the form. The idea being that you could do a search using this form to find all the employees in one office or all the accountants in one office, or any other combination.
The main search query has the following criteria for each field - Like [forms]![Form1]![cboOffice] & "*" Like [forms]![Form1]![cboJobTitle] & "*" Like [forms]![Form1]![txtName] & "*"
It works great...until I enter a record where one of those fields may be null, such as if I leave the JobTitle blank. If I have two employees in an office in one city and then do a search for all the employees in that office, it only returns one record and ignores the one that has the null value in the JobTitle field.
On [Form1] I have a Multi-Select Listbox[List1] which shows Job Numbers [WBS] (The job numbers displaying are a result of a separate query filtered by the Fiscal Year combobox). When I click [CMD1] I want [Query1] results to only be selected [WBS] from the form.What is the best way to code this? I'm a beginner when it comes to VBA.
Came across a problem and wanted to see if anyone else has seen this or knows the cause.
I am working in Access 2003.
I have two tables stored in a backend. One table updates the other. The database I inherited was doing this via the copyobject. I wanted to use a del query to delete recs in target table then an append query to update from source table to target table.
Both tables have data fields named in the following format: 01/2007, 02/2007, etc. If I write a select query and save it, it works fine. However, if I write an Append query, the INSERT clause chops off the leading 0 of all fields upon save which causes the query to not work correctly. Anyone know why this happens?
Hi all, stumped on an issue I thought would be pretty straight forwards (again) so i'm hoping to find the answer here! I have a make table query which produces the table using fields from three other tables and it runs fine however I now want to insert a new field with the value "Current" in it, and, if possible, an Autonumebr ID field as primary key. I'd like this is all done in one query so not sure if it will fly but if anyone can advise me I know someone from here can help.
I have a form with many fields and one field has an OnChange event to run an insert query or log an entry in a table about the change. I get insert entry written with everything except one field.The OnChange event code is:
Code: If AddressStatusFld = 2 Then 'If it has changed from Current to Non-Current create a Contact Log entry for this matte If (Val([MatterShortNoFld]) Mod 2 = 1) Then Me.OperatorFld = 16
[code]....
I just can't work out why the record in MatterContactsMade table has a null value for the field Operator.
I have two tables containing (let's say for simplicity) questions and attachments (pictures). I am trying to perform a union query to join all the questions and pictures into one report, but it won't let me union the attachment because 'the multi-valued field 'TableA.Pictures' cannot be used in a union query'.
I have searched and searched for a solution (and got kind of close) but i still can't get it to work. The best I can do is union everything like below, which gives all the questions as desired, but says #Error in the pictures column:
SELECT TableA.* FROM TableA Union SELECT TableB.* FROM TableB;
(Note tables A and B have the same structure, several yes/no and open text questions as well as one attachment field. )
I have two tables each with an ID field (autonumber/PK/No Dup etc).
I want to append two fields from one table to the other table. I have set up an Append Query to do this but it won't work - I get the following error - "The INSERT INTO statement contains the following unknown field: 'FiID'...."
