General :: Merging Combining Multiple Results From Same Field
Jan 16, 2014
Im trying to work out the best way to combine results from a table. Not knowing the correct terminology I didn't want to post in a specific section of the forum until its clear in my head.So I have a query currently which shows the entries into my database for example (these aren't the column names precisely as I know some are reserved words its just to demonstrate):
UserA - Hours - Date - ProjectA
UserB - Hours - Date - ProjectA
UserA - Hours - Date - ProjectB
UserA - Hours - Date - ProjectB
UserB - Hours - Date - ProjectA
UserA - Hours - Date - ProjectA
What I am trying to do is combine UserA's entries with ProjectA and UserA's entries with ProjectB (seperatly) and UserB's with ProjectA and UserB with Project B (again seperatly).So the end result would show a total of User A's hours on Project A and separately ProjectB and the same for UserB.

Hi,
I'm putting together a (hopefully) highly automated database that will allow me to produce clear reports for various areas of responsibility in a new job.
I have 3 excel spreadsheets linked directly to access, containing work queue reports. I then run queries that copy new work items into a main table, followed by a query that looks for work items that no longer appear (i.e. work is finished and closed) and then automatically inputs the date.
For reporting purposes i initially want a basic output, i.e. work items raised, and work items closed, for each area of resposnibility. The only trouble i've found is that i have to do a different query for each output, then another query that pulls all the other queries together in order to maniuplate into a graph...
So at the moment i have two queries per responsibility, and one pulling those two together i.e.:
New Work Items:
SELECT Count(ticketsds.id) AS [DS New]
FROM TicketsDS
WHERE (((Format(ticketsds.[date received],"mmm"))=Forms!ReportingDate!comboMonth));
Closed Work Items:
SELECT Count(ticketsds.id) AS [DS Closed]
FROM TicketsDS
WHERE (((Format(ticketsds.[datefinished],"mmm"))=Forms!ReportingDate!comboMonth));
Then i have this query pulling the two results together:
SELECT DSClosed.[DS Closed], DSNew.[DS New]
FROM DSClosed, DSNew;
Is there anyway of combining the first two queries into one, rather than have 3??
Any help would be greatly appreciated, as if i could find out how to do this it woudl enable me to streamline other queries....
Many Thanks!
Gareth
PS I've tried 'UNION' but that just tags the other results under the same field name which i can't use to create graphs...

I've created a access database containing multiple tables, theres one main table that will contain all the data compiled.
I then have other tables that contain some matching data but with an additonal column filled in,
I want to be able to pull the data from these other tables into the main table and compile it including merging some data into a single feild.
Effectively this is what the inputs will be:
Code:
Table 1
Ident Number Solution TRN
T0941A1 SLN019149 EFE0008
T0941B1 SLN019149 EFE0008
T0941C1 SLN019149 EFE0008
Code:
Table 2
Ident Number Solution TRN
T0941A1 SLN019149 EFE0167
T0941B1 SLN019149 EFE0167
T0941C1 SLN019149 EFE0167
Code:
Table 3
Ident Number Solution TRN
T0941A1 SLN019149 EFE0188
T0941B1 SLN019149 EFE0188
T0941C1 SLN019149 EFE0188
Then the main table i want to compile the data like this:
Code:
Table 4
Ident Number Solution TRN
T0941A1 SLN019149 EFE0008,TRN0167,EFE0188
T0941B1 SLN019149 EFE0008,TRN0167,EFE0188
T0941C1 SLN019149 EFE0008,TRN0167,EFE0188
i want it to show as 1 line item and compile the TRN numbers into a single feild per row rather than having duplicates.

I am working on a report that has some special characteristics.
Let's say I have a list of groups of Vendors in a table, complete with VendorID. I have 3 other tables that use the VendorID: Complaints, Complements, and Terminations.
Each of these tables has a date that the Complaint, Complement, and Termination notice was received.
Every Fiscal Quarter, a report is pulled that looks back over the 4 preceding quarters to determine if a 5% threshold has been crossed by any of the vendor-groups in regards to the amount of Complaints they received.
The equation used for that is : (complaints/vendors_in_group)*100
It is imperative that the information has the current fiscal year and fiscal month (which I am tracking with functions from MS website), and I need to be able to store the information attached to the fiscal year and month.So when a user goes to the form and inputs the desired Fiscal Year and Fiscal Month, the database can display the 4 previous quarters of information...split into Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4.
What I would like to have happen is to be able to have one table where the information is stored, quarterly, so that it can be retrieved for the report.
Questions:
1. Is it possible to have one line, per VendorID, that has the total number of Complements, Complaints, and Terminations, as well as the threshold percent stored in a table? Right now, I am getting LOTS of duplicates and blank lines when I try to put them all together. It has the right data, but takes about 10 rows per VendorID.
2. It is very important that the total number of Vendors in a group be captured on that quarterly report, so maintaining that number, in the same table, is essential and must be tied to the VendorID.
3. I have looked at Union Queries and Crosstabs, but I just dont know enough about them to make it work.

I have a table which has each claim as a single record. A client wishes us to provide the data in a format that lists the each procedure on its own line. I have attached a highlevel example of what the data currently looks like and what the query results should look like.So I need to create a query that would repeat the Claim Number and place all the Procedure fields into one field.

I am linking to an SQL database that is designed in such a way that the problem description is recorded in multiple records. See a simplified example below. I want to run a query that will merge the information in the PROBLEM_DESCRIPTION and return only one record for PROB_ID 55678.
PROB_ID ORIGINATOR DATE PROBLEM_DESCRIPTION
55678 Jim 01/01/2015 While cleaning my computer, I noticed
55678 Jim 01/01/2015 the screen was cracked. I called
55678 Jim 01/01/2015 the IT department and they said I had
55678 Jim 01/01/2015 to write a work order. However it
55678 Jim 01/01/2015 was rejected without reason.

I trying to combine three columns that I have into one column without combining fields.
Currently what I have:
(see image below)
What I want:
ID-----MOC
##----name1
##----name2
##----name3
##----name4
##----name5
etc
The list I have will be much longer and will be changing frequently, which is why I can't just go on excel and manually do this.

Hello All,
I am trying to figure out the best was to combine fields from multiple rows into one row & field.
Example: I have a table that contains footnotes and products. With a simple query I would get the following 3 rows:

V.I. Capital Appreciation Fund.................3
V.I. Capital Appreciation Fund.................5
V.I. Capital Appreciation Fund.................1
What I want is one row and the 3 footnotes combines into one field:
Product........................................... .......Footnote

Hi.
Stupid question, but I have Access 97 database with ssn in each record.
I need to create a comma-delimted text file with these ssns.
When I use the export text file with a query that lists each record's ssn, it does not produce comma-delimited file.
How?

I've got some tables I pulled off GeoNames.org that I need to extract data from. One table has everything I need except the counties listed in it. Instead of that, it gives a county code. The other table has the actual county names associated with those codes.In the main table, country and state are listed similar to "US" and "WA", representing U.S.A. and Washington state, with the city name ("Seattle") also displayed in a separate field. A county may be displayed as a county code of 003 or 101, or any such 3-digit number. The thing is, multiple counties can have the same county code, since each state's counties start their numbering over at 001, 003, 005, etc.In the county table, one column has the country, state, and county code in one field similar to US.WA.003, and the county name ("King County") in another field.What I need to do with this info is create a new table that will have only the country, state, county, and city names (omitting the text "County", if possible). So, my final result would be: US, WA, King, SeattleI just don't know how to pull the data from each table while merging the county information.The reason I haven't included the examples of the tables I'm using is because I'm hoping to be able to put together the query myself, with the help you all can provide me with. Alot of times, there are well-intentioned people who are kind enough to layout everything exactly as you need it to come up with finished results, and I'd just like to get the opportunity to take a shot at it myself first. If I can't get it from there, believe me, I'll be back for more help.Thanks in advance.

I have a large database which runs various reports however i am struggling with the last bit to get this report working.
Under each "Works Order" is a set of scrap which is associated with this batch. Instead of rows of data i would like to add all the "reason for scrap" to a single text box for each works order:
i.e. WO: 259953 | Scrap: Sub contract inner open; Untraceable short; short to plane etc etc.

I am really struggling with this, but I need to combine these two queries.
They count the number of goals scored and conceded in a fixture between two teams to give the games played, games won lost and drawn and Goals for and against and points tally.
However, I can only get it to work for the Hometeam.
The second query gives the results for the Away team, but I need to combine the two together to give one league table with all the results and points etc combined.
Hope you can help :o
This displays the home team results and calculates everything correctly.
SELECT tbl_Fixtures.TEAMID, TBL_TEAMS.NAME,
COUNT(*) AS GAMESPLAYED, SUM(IIf((HOMEGOALS>AWAYGOALS),1,0)) AS GAMEWON,
SUM(IIf((HOMEGOALS=AWAYGOALS),1,0)) AS GAMEDRAWN,
SUM(IIf((HOMEGOALS<AWAYGOALS),1,0)) AS GAMELOST,
SUM(HOMEGOALS) AS GOALSFOR, SUM(AWAYGOALS) AS GOALAGAINST,
SUM((IIf((HOMEGOALS>AWAYGOALS),3,0))+(IIf((HOMEGOALS=AWAYGOALS),1,0))) AS POINTS
FROM tbl_Fixtures, TBL_TEAMS
WHERE tbl_Fixtures.TEAMID=TBL_TEAMS.TEAMID
GROUP BY tbl_Fixtures.TeamID, TBL_TEAMS.name;
This displays the Away team results and calculates everything correctly.
SELECT tbl_Fixtures.opponentID, TBL_TEAMS.NAME,
COUNT(*) AS GAMESPLAYED,
SUM(IIf((AWAYGOALS>HOMEGOALS),1,0)) AS GAMEWON,
SUM(IIf((AWAYGOALS=HOMEGOALS),1,0)) AS GAMEDRAWN,
SUM(IIf((AWAYGOALS<HOMEGOALS),1,0)) AS GAMELOST,
SUM(AWAYGOALS) AS GOALSFOR, SUM(HOMEGOALS) AS GOALAGAINST,
SUM((IIf((AWAYGOALS>HOMEGOALS),3,0))+(IIf((AWAYGOALS=HOMEGOALS),1,0))) AS POINTS
FROM tbl_Fixtures, TBL_TEAMS
WHERE tbl_Fixtures.opponentID=TBL_TEAMS.TEAMID
GROUP BY tbl_Fixtures.opponentID, TBL_TEAMS.name;
Now I just have to figure out how to combine the two, which is proving more difficult than I thought it would be.
My SQL isn't the best :o

I have created a booking system for a travel agency and now when the booking is complete I want to export some summary data to the Excel. The issue is that I have separate tables showing lunch, tickets, tour guides, etc for every destination and I have also created queries showing the total for each destination but the issue is that I cannot combine all the results into one query and export that query to excel.

Sales will make calls and record data using a form (frmEnquirySpeak) which will save to tblSpeak. If the call results in a meeting being booked then it also updates tblMeeting with a date of the meeting (simple stuff so far!).
A sales person might record up to 14 types of action per day, qrySpeakPerAction counts the different types of call made on a day by day basis for reporting. qrySpeakGroupedAction summarises this down to 8 categories and applies a date filter selected on a reporting form (and this works well).
I now want to include the qryMeetingsBookedPerDay (counts m_date_raised and groups by m_date_raised...eg 2 on 24/12/14, 4 on 28/12/14 etc etc) with the qrySpeakGroupedAction...
My effort so far has resulted in only dates which appear on BOTH queries showing. This may not always be the case.
Every day calls will be made, this may or may not result in a meeting. So I see there being 2 options:
1 - Query to show the count of calls on a date or date range and number of meetings booked each day that calls are made (prefer this method, it sounds simpler)
2 - qryMeetingsBookedPerDay should auto populate days which dont appear as 0 (this sounds messy and not sure what capabilities/speed are like when managers want to spot patterns/trends over multiple years?)

Here is the situation that I'm hoping that someone can help me with. I'm working with a database that tracks our condo units - from prospect coming into the system until we close them as a buyer. All the units are setup in the system so a salesperson will select from the units available. All that works fine when I create reports. The problem is trying to get the parking and storage on the same reports with the unit information. The problem is that there are multiple parking/storage units "attached" to a single unit and I cannot figure out how to get them to all appear on a single row of the report. As an example -
I have units A, B, C
Parking units p1,p2,p3,p4,p5,p6
Storage units s1,s2,s3.
Unit A uses parking units p1, p2, p5 and storage unit s2.
Unit B uses parking unit p3 and storage unit s1.
Unit C uses parking unit p4, p6 and storage unit s3.
How do I write a query/report that would show:
Unit Parking Storage
Unit A p1, p2, p5 s2
Unit B p3 s1
Unit C p4,p6 s3
Thanks,

Ok, this is only a very general question, but I'm hoping somebody here can give me some general advice.
Basically, I have three separate database which I've written for my company. They were all written at different times, hence the fact there are three and not one that does three things. The first is used to raise, edit, delete, and track RMA records for returned merchandise. The second is used to raise, edit, and track Training data for people who have undergone my training course. The third is my main database that contains all of my clients' details, plus a log of all calls taken from them. This is the largest and most complex of the databases and has some fairly advanced relationships setup to enabled hundreds of call logs to be linked to a single record of necessary.
Now all three databases have been written using the same kind of structure. They all use popup modal forms to prevent malicious/accidental damage to the database by the staff who use them. They are all locked down and Access cannot be broken into whilst they are running. they all also have their own primary keys.
All these databases work just fine, but I'm now a little tired of each staff member having three shortcuts on their desktops, depending on which database they need to use. what I'd really like to do is somehow merge all three of these databases into one single database, and alter the switchboard accordingly to allow users to access any of the three parts of it.
The problems - as I see them - are: (a) that my main database uses a lot of relationship links to maintain certain records, whilst the other two use none, and, (b) that each database, having been written separately, has records with their own ID keys and autonumbers.
I did toy with the idea of having some kind of function on my main switchboard that would allow me to close the current database being used and open another, all without closing Access, but I haven't been too successful in my tests...
...so, my question is, does anybody have any bright ideas as to how I can go about merging these three, or, at very least, centralising access to all three?

We've got a software that is creating a mdb file with one table and 10 columns. Every day we have around 30.000 entries in the table. At the end of the week we have 7 different mdb files and usually we copy/paste them into one single file to do the base research. Everything is fine until the mdb's file size is 2GB. I understand that mdb files start behaving strange with files over 2GB of size. Therefore after a couple of months we have several 2GB mdb files. When doing a history research we have to open each and every file to check and search in that file. That can take a lot of time if you have 20 or more mdb files.
What I am asking is ... if there is a possibility to merge all the 2GB files into one or maybe more so that the research wouldn't take so much time.

I have after much stress gotten my comments history field to appear on a form.
The following code gives me what I needed
Code:
=ColumnHistory([RecordSource],"LastUpdateBy","[ID]=" & Nz([ID],0))
I have only one simple thing left, that is perplexing to say the least.
Some comment fields will be many short notes, spread over time.
My desire is to change the sort order of the results so the most recent (rather than the initial) comment is at the top.

I'm in the process of creating a database to track campaign contributions, and I'm kind of stuck.
I've created tables for the citizens, the candidates, and the contributions to the candidates. Now I'm trying to populate them with an Excel spreadsheet. The problem is I have no clue on how to split the Excel file so the appropriate parts go into each table.
The spreadsheet contains:
Name, address, etc. - This needs to go into the Citizens table
Names of candidates individuals contributed to - This needs to go into the candidates table.
Dollar amounts and dates of contributions - This needs to go into the contributions table.
Each citizen may have made multiple contributions to multiple candidates.
The easy way would be for everything to be in one table, but that would be a bad database design, right? Here's a shortened version of how my tables are designed:
Citizens: Name, contact info, etc. of citizens
Candidates: Name, party affiliation, etc. of candidates
Contributions: Candidate (fk is pk of Candidate table), Citizen (fk is pk of citizen table), contribution date, and contribution amount.
I appreciate the assistance, as I'm getting really frustrated.

I have 5 copies of a database that 5 users enter data into (including Pre, Post and Follow-Up information). These users send me their database quarterly and I am suppose to merge the data into one database from which to run reports, etc.
The problem comes in with the auto-numbering. Each "Pre" table has an ID that is auto-numbered. This auto-number is also stored when a corresponding "Post" (or follow-up form) is entered so that we can be sure the pre-, post- and follow-up are all linked to the same individual. When I merge the data, they are reassigned ID numbers in the Pre (while the Post still has the original Pre ID number) so now I've lost the link as to one individual's pre, post and follow-up form.
I realize now that the database shouldn't have been built this way, but is there any way to work around this. I've even tried exporting all of the rows for each of the 5 users into Excel and then importing them into Access in a new table (just so I could have the ease of running queries) but I seem to be getting errors doing that as well.
Any ideas?

Hi all, I'm not an Access programmer by trade, but unfortunately got handed a project that nobody else wanted.
I have a small database taking shape which will track the auditing of paperwork/files. Each file has a unique ID associated with it, in this case, an account number. Audits will take place by selecting the job area (department), then the type of file (Line, Loan, Increase). This will be used to sort which type of audit questions are asked.
I have the following tables created:
tblQuestions: ID, Question, Product question applies to, Function question applies to, Comment field, and result field.
tblTeamMember: MemberID, TeamMember, Manager, PrimaryFunction
tblAuditResult: AuditID, MemberID, AccountNumber, Question, Result, Comment, Date of Audit
tblProduct: List of product types (line, loan, increase)
tblFunction: list of job functions
Currently a form is displayed so the manager can select the job function, then the file type. This will display:
frmAuditCreate - this form contains the fields: txtAccount, cmbManager, cmbTeamMember, txtAuditDate
Sub form on frmAuditCreate - frmQuestionSub - this form contains the fields: Question, Comment, Result
The frmQuestionSub is built off a query which uses the function and product values to determine which questions to filter and display.
Now, once the user is done flipping through each question in the sub form and input the data into the comment and result field associated with that question, I need that information along with the information on the frmAuditCreate to be stored in the table tblAuditResult. This is the problem I'm having difficulty with. I can't find a way to copy the question, comment, and result and insert it into the same record as the rest of the data.
Unfortunatlly I can't strip the database down enough to meet the 100k or less attachment limit.
