Values From Different Colums....
Feb 19, 2008Hi Gurus,
Here's my situation. I have three columns in Access:
Attribute Name, DateValue, CharValue.
I wish to create a make table query which does the following:
If Attribute Name = 'approved_date' then take the value from DateValue Column and populate it in a New table 'new'.
but if the
Attribute Name = 'description' the take the value from CharValue column and populate it in the same table 'new' in a different column. Please help, how to achieve this.
Thanks,

Rows To Colums
Jun 29, 2007OK, here we go...... Is there a way to convert multiple rows to a single record. For example:
Rec# Existing Data
001 | 1000
002 | 2001
003 | 3252
004 | 6573
005 | 8983
006 | 9897
Is there a way to put this all in one record, like this:
Rec# . 1st# . 2nd# . 3rd# . 4th# . 5th# . 6th#
001 | 1000 | 2001 | 3252 | 6573 | 8983 | 9897
And can you do this from the query design view?
Just curious.
Hide Colums Without Data
Jun 10, 2006Is there a way to hide a column in a query that does not have any data in it?
I have tables that are populated with YES/NO boxes and I only want to bring back the information for fields that are YES. Currently, the queries run and bring back all fields.
Each query will only have 1 result as they are limited by the primary key.
Thanks!
Merge Colums In A Query
Jan 30, 2008I am making this harder than it has to be i'm sure. I had a previous post of auto-texting a field, well why can't I just take two fields I have, such as the ID field which is an autonumber field and combine that with a type field that I have which is D.
If I could merge this in a query, wouldn't it give me the results as D01, D02, etc?
I couldn't find anything helpful online, one side said do the following.
SELECT receivables2.type+receivables2.ID
FROM receivables2;
Only I get errors.
I also tried this.
SELECT merge(receivables2.type; receivables2.ID);
FROM receivables2;
But it says merge is an invalid expression.
Could someone please help?

Averages From Multiple Colums With Ignored Values
Feb 15, 2007I have a table containing about 120 records of 40 fields containing integer values. The values are 0 (for 'no experience'), 1 - 5 (for evaluation of experience) and 9 (for question not answered). I would like to generate a row of averages for the 40 columns.
Access includes the '0's when using the Avg function. (So 1,0,3,0,1,4 yields 1.5 (1+0+3+0+1+4 / 6) rather than the accurate 2.25 (1+0+3+1+4 / 4)). I can tackle this in two ways: I either convert all zero's to NULLs, as Access will not count NULL in an Avg function call, or I can do each column in a seperate query using a WHERE clause. I also have the problem of screening out the 9's. I'm reluctant to create 40 queries and then another to amalgamate the results as this seems a very silly way to solve this problem. I cannot convert both the zeroes AND the 9's to NULL as to do so would lose valuable data.
Can anyone suggest how I can obtain a full row of averages for the 40 fields, ignoring 0's and 9's?

Queries :: Pulling Records Based On Blank / Non-blank Criteria
Jul 18, 2013I have a couple different reference files that get updated each week. Sometimes there are missing data elements, so I'd like to structure a select query to show me those records that have blank elements but I'd like the similar records to be pulled in as well, so I can make a determination as to how to populate the blank records..
See attached example: I have a client ID reference table that gets populated with forecast owner names (individuals responsible for the customer) from a couple of different sources. Sometimes there are names attached and sometimes the field is blank.
How can I structure a query to show me just those Client ID's that have multiple entries with blank AND non-blank forecast owners? I'd also like to exclude single/multiple records where there are only blank records...
Query Criteria With Blank And Non-blank Text Records
Mar 13, 2007OK, I have been searching around on the fourm for over an hour now...I give up. If this is some where else, I am sorry.
I have a database of maintenance data. There are several columns that are usually filled in, some records have some columns blank. They are formated text because they hold letters and numbers (see pic).
I am using a form to query the table...no problem. The form has text boxes the user filter down the data
The problem comes are with the results of the query. Any record that has a blank column is not retuned. I am using "Like" so that the user can enter in partial codes. I know "like" won't return "null" records.... Help!
Things I have tried:
1)IIF(form field is blank, return table field, else use like command to filter) - returns nothing!
2)Like "*" & [Forms]![Fleetwide_data_Request]![MAL_CD] & "*" returns all records without blanks (i.e. missing data)
what else can I do?
Thanks

Description 1 Cost 1
Description 2 Cost 2
Description 3 Cost 3
Description 4 Cost 4
I want to be able to auto fill some fields on a form based on the combo box selection.
Has anyone done this before and can it be done.

Blank New Form Is No Longer Blank?
Apr 11, 2006Hi guys,
I have been running the same database on numerous systems for 5 years and the user clicks on a button and using this code;
DoCmd.OpenForm "Employee", acNormal
Simple !, this always opened this form blank, without applying filters, ready to accept a new employees details.
But now this no longer works, for no apparent reason?
What happens is that it opens with the form fields filled with the first person in the Databases details instead of being blank.
The only thing that could have changed is that i converted the database to 2003?
Any ideas?
Thank you in advance
Forms :: Way To Continue To Blank Form After Entering Information Into Previous Blank Form?
Mar 25, 2013When entering information into a blank form, I would like to be able to continue entering information to another additional blank form after my last entry. Is there a way to continue to a blank form after entering information into the previous blank form? I would just like to continue without having to close the entire form and then reopening another form.

Aug 24, 2006I was wondering if there is a way to have a default value in a table field which is dependant on whether there was data enterd in said field or not. For example. I do not want any blank fields on my table instead I want "N/A" in the fields that were not used. I have tried setting the "default value" of the fields to N/A and it does work. The only problem is that all of the fields are filled with N/A automatically and in order to enter data one has to delete or "overwrite" N/A. Is there a way that N/A will be entered ONLY if the field is skipped over and left blank.

Blank Fields
Jan 19, 2006Hi - I have what maybe a relatively easy problem to solve.
I have a list of locations each with a unique id. I also have another table with location details in it. There is a relationship setup between the two tables. However in the first table I have some locations that do not have a match in the second table. Therefore that field is left blank. When create a query to show information from the two tables, any records that have a blank location match field do not get shown in the output. Is there anyway to display records with blank fields?
Thanks

Blank Form
Aug 21, 2006Hi,
I have created a switchboard for a very basic DB and the first button is "ADD A NEW ENTRY"
When I click on this a form comes up but it bears the data from the first record.
How can I edit it so that a blank form comes up ready to receive data?

Blank Out Field.....??
Feb 18, 2007Hi all
I have a numeric field in a form which initially is set to 0. When the user clicks or tabs to this field, it is blanked out in the got focus event by setting the field to "". This works great. Now, if the user exits the field by clicking elsewhere or tabing out of it, without entering a value, I would like the 0 value to be inserted again. I have tried many things to make this work without any success. Is there someone who knows the right way to do this?
Thanks in advance

Blank Spaces
Nov 28, 2005Hello,
I have the following SQL query that runs perfectly. Now I need to put some blank spaces in between for the first expresion (EXPR1). At the moment, as you can see, brings me the 4 fields together.
I have tried using + ' ' + and + " " + but it won't let me as it says that the syntax is Incorrect. What should I use to get spaces?
Thank you!

Odd Blank Page
Nov 23, 2005I have a problem which occasionally surfaces.
When trying to use an edit form nothing comes up but a blank page. No fields, nothing. The database is split and when I open it. It shows as read only. The database is only used by myself and another and the other is not accessing it. I've tried closing and opening the database and also compacting and repairing but there is no difference to the particular form.
the problem is cleared up the next day when the db is accessed again.
All other forms are ok to use, and there are now 2 forms which this happens to. Has anyone experienced or seen something similar?
