How To Create Field Whose Name Ends With A Blank?

Mar 19, 2015

I have a very unusual situation where I need the name of a field in an Access table to end with a blank (i.e. space). I tried doing it trivially while in Design View but no dice. I tried it through some SQL along the lines of the following pseudo code

Select [old table].[Address] as [Address2 ], [old table].*
Into [new table]
From [old table]

but the new field's name "Address2 " lost the final space.A third try was through some syntax for an Alter Table statement to add or modify a field. It didn't pan out.

Forms :: Create A New Blank Database And Import Everything?

Nov 22, 2013

I have comboboxes on forms that i have entered the values for the drop down list in.They are on a form with textboxes and go through a one to many relationship via an intermediate table.I deleted one value from the list as it was no longer required and i also deleted the records that used to use that name.

Queries :: Pulling Records Based On Blank / Non-blank Criteria

Jul 18, 2013

I 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, 2007

OK, 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

Blank New Form Is No Longer Blank?

Apr 11, 2006

Hi 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

If Blank Then....

Aug 24, 2006

I 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.

"Using way too many quotation marks"

Blank Fields

Jan 19, 2006

Hi - 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 Out Field.....??

Feb 18, 2007

Hi 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, 2005

Hello,
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!

**********

SET @SQL = 'SELECT dbo.brnch.addr + dbo.brnch.suburb + dbo.brnch.state + dbo.brnch.PIN AS EXPR1, dbo.individuals.posit, dbo.individuals.phn, dbo.company.name

FROM dbo.company INNER JOIN
dbo.brnch ON dbo.company.ID = dbo.brnch.com_ID INNER JOIN
dbo.individuals ON dbo.brnch.br_ID = dbo.individuals.br_ID INNER JOIN

WHERE dbo.brnch.country in (' + @OrderList + ') '

Odd Blank Page

Nov 23, 2005

I 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?

Calendar Allow Blank

Aug 25, 2006

I currently have a textbox on a form where on mousedown it launches a calendar and on click it allows me to select a date. It has a validation rule that controls what date can be selected.

However, if I go to a record that has a date entered in the textbox and try to delete the value then the validation rule kicks in. How do I modify it so it will allow me to enter a blank value?

Private Sub Calendar1_Click()
If Calendar1.Value >= (MDate1 - 7) Then
MsgBox "Cancellation must be at least seven days in advance of the first meeting.", vbOKOnly, "Cancellation Date"
Else
CDate1.Value = Calendar1.Value
CDate1.SetFocus
Calendar1.Visible = False

End If
End Sub



Private Sub CDate1_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
Calendar1.Visible = True
Calendar1.SetFocus
If Not IsNull(CDate1) Then
Calendar1.Value = CDate1.Value
Else
Calendar1.Value = Date
End If
End Sub
