Hello everybody,
I am having trouble with this criteria on one field in a query
<>19 Or <>15 Or <>14 Or <>16 Or <>17 Or <>1 Or <>3
The query is still showing records that contain 14, 3 and 16.
Basically, I don't want to show records containing 19, 15, 14, 16, 17, 1 and 3.
Thanks
Hi All
Can't understand why the following doesn't work when changing the operator.
Using the "<>"
SELECT qryColleagues.WCN, qryColleagues.ClgName, qryColleagues.Shift FROM qryColleagues, tblTempNew WHERE (((qryColleagues.WCN)<>[tblTempNew]![WCN])) GROUP BY qryColleagues.WCN, qryColleagues.ClgName, qryColleagues.Shift ORDER BY qryColleagues.ClgName;
the particaular part is (((qryColleagues.WCN)<>[tblTempNew]![WCN]))
it works if the operator is "=" but not "<>"
The thing is I'm sure this was working fine.
edit: I have just noticed that this works if there is only one record in the tblTempNew table. As soon as I put 2 records in there it does not work.
Any ideas.

I have two tables in the first table there is an outline number and the second table there is a task id (both are text strings, i.e. outline number and task id would be something like 8.15.3.1)
I want a query to return all the results in the first table that are not equal to the second table
I have tried the following but it returns all 54 records
Code:SELECT DISTINCT RawData.TeamLeadNumber, RawData.Category, RawData.OutlineNumber, RawData.OutlineDescription, RawData.Start, RawData.Finish, RawData.Milestone, RawData.PercentComplete, RawData.DeliverableDesc, RawData.ReleasePeriod, RawData.OutlineNumber2, RawData.OutlineDescription2FROM RawData, SharePointDataWHERE (((RawData.OutlineNumber)<>SharePointData.TaskID));
I have tried changing the where clause to have it as
Code:WHERE ((RawData.OutlineNumber)<SharePointData.TaskID) AND ((RawData.OutlineNumber)>SharePointData.TaskID);
but then no data is returned, and I know that of the 54 records 21 of them are the same so I should be seeing 33 records
Hi everyone,
I have a problem with a query.
Just for info, I export some table from SQL to access. The same query in SQL work fine but when I try in Access come out this error:
------------------------------------------------------------------
Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression 'tbl_Style.FABRICID = tbl_Info.Infoid INNER JOIN tbl_Info AS tbl_Info_1 ON tbl_Info.Parent = tbl_Info_1.Infoid'.
------------------------------------------------------------------
The query:
SELECT tbl_Style.STYLECODE, tbl_Info_1.Infodata AS [Fabric Type]
FROM tbl_Style INNER JOIN
tbl_Info ON tbl_Style.FABRICID = tbl_Info.Infoid INNER JOIN
tbl_Info AS tbl_Info_1 ON tbl_Info.Parent = tbl_Info_1.Infoid
I appreciate your help.

I have built a function which passes values into the criteria of a saved query. It has worked very well until I recently built a query builder based on this same concept. The user can select from a list of operators "<=", ">=", ">", "<", "=".
Example, the function will pass into the criteria the following:
<150
Unfortunately, I have exhausted all avenues for passing the "<" less than or greater than signs into the criteria. The Access SQL forces an equals sign before the passed in criteria and thus treats the "<150" as the entire criteria.
I have overcome no criteria by defaulting the function value to pass in the wildcard "*" and putting "Like" in the criteria.
Has anyone every handled a "variable" operator in a saved query in Access? :confused:
I am aware that I can change the QueryDef, use temp tables, and do several other longer methods, but the success of this concept will reduce an large amount of coding effort as well as make the software much easier to transfer knowledge on.
This overall method is really a great way to reuse criteria based on a form without hard coding.
Thank you in advance for your help,
Dave

Good afternoon,
I have a field that contains semester info ie: F07 Sep.
What I am trying to do is using an if statement to test for which month and returning a section number based on the month. I can make it work using an exact match but am trying to make it work on the partial match "Sep" so I don't have to change it next year as F07 stands for Fall 2007
This is what I've tried and various combinations.
Section1: IIf([tblOnlineCoursesDetails]![Semester]="* Sep","70","")
Having trouble getting this to work.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
Thx

I am trying to select specific records based on input in a query. This criteria currently works to select everything with an ID less than 21 or 31 based on the users entry: <IIf([Enter "Y" for List 1]="Y",21,31)
I now need to change the query so that only certain records are selected based on the users entry. As an example, I would like to select 1, 3, 5 and 7 if they enter Y. And I would like to select 2, 4, 6 and 8 if they dont enter a Y.Here is what I have tried:
In IIf([Enter "Y" for List 1]="Y",(3,5,7,9),(2,4,6,8)).With this criteria, I get this error .The In operator you entered requires parentheses.
I'm trying to find a solution for this without success..I have this code:
Code:
CurrentDb.Execute "DELETE FROM Type WHERE Project_ID =" & Me.Project_ID & " & AND (Type = '" & Me.Txt_Type & "')"
and I'm getting this error message:Syntax error(missing operator) in query expression 'Project_ID = AND (Type = 'Webinar')'
Is there someway within Access itself or the documentation to see a complete list of:
Functions such as sum, median, average
Operators such as "and" "or"
Morning all
The problem whihc i have is that, when trying to open the form "Create Timetable", through the switch board.... a message box appears saying "Syntax error (missing opertor) in query exprssion"
Any ideas on why it is showing this message box???
Help would be appricated
Thank you
I have an asp page which modifies articles in my access database.
I added a field in the db called "Blocco" which is a checkbox field.
The code (working) which the page used before was (I'm copying just the part that modified will cause the problem):
Code:SQLModifica = " UPDATE [Articoli] SET Articoli.Sezione = '"& FSezione &"', Articoli.Autore = '"& FAutore &"', Articoli.Titolo = '"& FTitolo &"', Articoli.Podcast = '"& FPodcast &"', Articoli.tags = '"& Ftags &"', Articoli.Data = '"& FData &"', Articoli.Ora = '"& FOra &"', Articoli.Letture = "& FLetture &", " If FBozza = "si" ThenSQLModifica = SQLModifica & "Articoli.Bozza = True "ElseSQLModifica = SQLModifica & "Articoli.Bozza = False "End IfSQLModifica = SQLModifica & "WHERE Articoli.ID = "& FID &" "If Session("BLOGAdmin") = False ThenSQLModifica = SQLModifica & "AND Articoli.Autore = '"& Session("BLOGNick") &"' "End IfSet RSModifica = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")RSModifica.Open SQLModifica, Conn, 1, 3Set RSModifica = Nothing
After adding a radio type field in the form called Blocco (with yes or no values, working like the existing field "Bozza") I've modified the code adding something to update the db:
Code:SQLModifica = " UPDATE [Articoli] SET Articoli.Sezione = '"& FSezione &"', Articoli.Autore = '"& FAutore &"', Articoli.Titolo = '"& FTitolo &"', Articoli.Podcast = '"& FPodcast &"', Articoli.tags = '"& Ftags &"', Articoli.Data = '"& FData &"', Articoli.Ora = '"& FOra &"', Articoli.Letture = "& FLetture &", "If FBlocco = "si" ThenSQLModifica = SQLModifica & "Articoli.Blocco = True "ElseSQLModifica = SQLModifica & "Articoli.Blocco = False "End ifIf FBozza = "si" ThenSQLModifica = SQLModifica & "Articoli.Bozza = True "ElseSQLModifica = SQLModifica & "Articoli.Bozza = False "End ifSQLModifica = SQLModifica & "WHERE Articoli.ID = "& FID &" "If Session("BLOGAdmin") = False ThenSQLModifica = SQLModifica & "AND Articoli.Autore = '"& Session("BLOGNick") &"' "End IfSet RSModifica = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")RSModifica.Open SQLModifica, Conn, 1, 3Set RSModifica = Nothing
The page itself is loaded with no errors but when the form takes action I get this:
Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression 'True Articoli.Bozza = False'.
why? I've just used the same code that worked with the field "Bozza" (which is a checkbox field too)

I am trying to get a count of the unique customers in an access 2010 database
After some research it seems i should be using

But when i use this i get

I have tried leaving out the square brackets but this does not work....
I am trying to get Average If function to access sql. I have columns Period and Costs_Per_Capita, result should be like like this:

I have created a form based on a query. The funny thing is when I tried to sort fields on the form, the following message box pops up:
Syntax Error (Missing Operator) In (Field Name)
I just did the exact same thing several weeks ago, and that first form could sort fields normally. The only difference between the first one and this is that this second query was based on several tables, while the first was based on a single table, although I doubt that is where the problem is.
I forgot to add that I could sort fields where the field name doesn't have spaces in it. For example, the field name "Customer ID" triggers the syntax error, while the field "S/N", "Company", etc. can be sorted like normal.
How do you use the "sqrt"-function in a query? This function is unavailable in a query - and i do not know why. Please help!?
Thanks
I have attached a small db that has 1 query with several fields..
Here is what I'm looking to do.
In the Query there is the following fields:
SignINMemberID
GuestOfMember
SignInDateTime
AllowedEntry
Now all these are derived from tdatMemberSignIn.
What I want to do is show the name that corresponds with the MemberID in table MemberList.
That means if the SignInMemberID exists it would show First and Last Name and if GuestOfMember is blank it would show nothing.
If the SignInMemberID doesnt exist but the GuestOfMember does then it would show the First and Last name beside that field.
If the number doesnt exist it would be blank.
I entered the places I wanted to show the data in the query for your reference as expr1, expr2, expr3, expr4 for your reference.
Any help would be appreciatted.
I have set up a query to return the records of pupils with certain information, most of this information comes from a subform, (i have set up a form with multiple subforms to make data entry easier for the user) with these subforms many records have multiple subform records (i.e. Joe Bloggs has 3 different Approved hosts and 3 approved drivers) when i try to make a report it wants to print the same data 9 times (because there are 9 differnet combinations i asume) what i want to to is have the approved drivers in one list box and the approved hosts in another list box and have the report print only one!
can anyone help me!
please!
Trying to create this thing is tying my brain in knots, so I'm back for help. Hopefully I'm missing something basic:I've finally been able to normalize my database by taking it offline for a few weeks, and already the amount of duplicative/erroneous data that has been cleaned up is staggering. Right now I'm trying to ensure that our data is as complete as possible in the following circumstance: tableGroups has PK GroupID tablePeople has PK PersonID tableRelationships creates a many-to-many relationship between the two, via PersonIDLookup and GroupIDLookup. It also has its own Autonumber PK. tableRelationships also has fields that describe the relationship: For example, FormerRelationship, MailingContact, and PublicContact are all boolean fields. What I want to do is get a list of all GroupIDs which do not have any entry that is marked PublicContact. Problem is that some may have Former contacts, or privately listed ones for internal office use only; over time our Public Contacts move, die, quit, etc and sometimes they have not gotten replaced. I'll need to do the same thing for MailingContact as well, but the procedure for one should be the same as the other. No one who is a Former contact should also be listed as Public/Mailing, but I can't promise the data is that clean at this point.The only thought that occurs to me right now is to make one query that shows GroupIDs that do have at least one matching relationship, and then create a Find Unmatched query that relates to that. Is there something simpler with only one query?

I have a problem with using a crosstab query.
My original table looks something like this
VALUES
Oil_ID (PK)
Property_ID (PK)
Col_Heading (PK)
Row_Heading (PK)
Values
Oil Name
Property Name
I made a crosstab query with the columns being 'Col_Heading' and the rows being 'Row_Heading' and the values being 'Values'.
I made a form that has two combo boxes (Oil Name, Property Name). It also has a subform in which I want to display the crosstab query.
Now here comes the problem. Those two combo boxes need to be able to filter the data, but I am not able to put the code:
IIf(IsNull([Forms]![Values Form]![combo52]),[VALUES].[Oil Name],[Forms]![Values Form]![combo52])
IIf(IsNull([Forms]![Values Form]![combo66]),[VALUES].[Property Name],[Forms]![Values Form]![combo66])
in the Criteria because an error pops up saying: "The Microsoft Jet database engine does not recognize 'above_code' as a valid field name or expression.
So I created a select query, call it QueryA', that would let me filter the data. The I created a crosstab query based on QueryA, but the same error message occurs.
I am stuck. If you could help me, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks
I have a union query that will run from the SQL design window but if I try and run it from the database window it crashes Access (2003). Any ideas?
SELECT [TestLat]-0.5 AS Lat, tblTestData.TestLong AS [Long], tblTestData.TestTemp
FROM tblTestData
UNION SELECT [TestLat]+0.5 AS Lat, tblTestData.TestLong AS [Long], tblTestData.TestTemp
FROM tblTestData
UNION SELECT tblTestData.TestLat AS Lat, [TestLong]-0.5 AS [Long], tblTestData.TestTemp
FROM tblTestData
UNION SELECT tblTestData.TestLat AS Lat, [TestLong]+0.5 AS [Long], tblTestData.TestTemp
FROM tblTestData;
I am having trouble with some code I am using on a query. Part of the query comes from two fields in a form. The rest comes from a table. The query then populates a report. The code I have written works fine. The trouble starts when I try and enter in some code so that if some of the fields in the form is left blank, it just returns values based on the fileds that has data, so ignores any blank fields.
I have tried to use examples illustrated in this Forum, but it does not seem to like it. I keep on getting the request to fill in the parameter value. I am sure it is something simple!
This is the code I have entered for the Invoice Date Field:
Between [Forms]![Invoices]![Invoice date 1] And [Forms]![Invoices]![Invoice date 2]
