How To Set Query Parameters For Use In OpenRecordset
Sep 13, 2006
I’ve the following query definition “selOrders”
PARAMETERS [DateFrom] DateTime, [DateTo] DateTime;
SELECT * FROM Orders WHERE OrderDate BETWEEN [DateFrom] AND [DateTo]
I want to open this query as a DAO.Recordset but have problems to assign values to the parameters. I tried different possibilities but invain. My latest try was as follows:
Dim QryDef As QueryDef
Dim Date1, Date2 As Date
Dim Orders As DAO.Recordset
Set QryDef = CurrentDb.QueryDefs("selOrders")
QryDef.Parameters("DateFrom") = Date1
QryDef.Parameters("DateTo") = Date2
Set Orders = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("selOrders")
During execution error 3061 (Too few parameters, expected: 2) occurs.
I have a library function that will allow the user to nominate a query (as one of its arguments) in the calling application which must have an email field. The function will then Do Loop the email field, concatenating it before creating an email and addressing it. The intended functionality is that a developer can easily create a group email, just by creating a query.
This works fine if the query is filtered "statically" - i.e. I specify which group of people by typing in their "Site_ID" in the criteria. However I want developers to be able to creating dynamically filtered queries (perhaps by the group's ID on a calling form). Within the query (to test it), the filter is therefore [Forms]![Test Function Calls]![Site_id]. When I run the code, I am then presented with "Run-time error 3061: Too few parameters. Expected 1". The code in question is:
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset Dim stTo As String 'one of the function's arguments received from the calling function. Dim stToString As String 'the built up concatenated emails
Set rst = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset(stTo, dbOpenDynaset, dbSeeChanges)
I am opening a recordset like this, where strDatabase is an SQL Statement
Set rstDatafile = dbDatafile.OpenRecordset(strDatabase, dbOpenSnapshot)
SQL Statement =[tblName] ORDER [Name]
It opens and everything is seemingly OK. However I then run a loop that deletes records as per a set of criteria. If I run this on the same unaltered table I get different results each time. It's almost like the SQL statement is not ordering it the same each time.
Am I doing something worng or is there another way to open a table order it's contents and modify it?
I am trying to open a recordset object using a reasonably complex query. The query uses other queries to get data and some of these queries are totaliser queries (I dont know the proper terminology but they are the ones that group and sum up data in the query).
Dim D As Database, R As Recordset, R2 As DAO.Recordset Set D = DBEngine.Workspaces(0).Databases(0) Set R2 = D.OpenRecordset("Qry Daily Losses", dbOpenSnapshot)
The error Message I get is:
Run-time error "3061" Too few parameters. Expected 4.
Most of the information I have seen on this error message talks about 1 parameter expected not 4.
I can open the query directly by clicking on it in the objects list and it looks fine. It is only when I try to open it in my code that it goes wrong.
Hello. I am trying to sort this out and hope someone can help.
Using Access 2002 front end, sqlserver 2000 back end.
In my front end database I have a query called "queEEGBilling" that is used to populate a report. It is quite a complex query which I did using the query designer, NOT with a WHERE sql command. I am not very good with SQL syntax.
The report works fine, and displays the records I want it to display.
However, after the report is displayed, I want to modify one field in each record to indicate that the report for hat record has been printed out (it is a billing package, and I want to indicate that the bill has been sent).
In order to do this, I need to access the recordset that was used to create the report. As I understand it, I cannot do this with a report (no equivalent of the recordsetclone property or anything similar). What I have to do is create the recordset that was used to create the report in the first place. No problem right?
set mydb=dbengine(0)(0) set rs1=mydb.openrecordset("queEEGBilling")
However, here I get the infamous error 3061. Too Few Parameters. Expected 1.
I have googled this up and down, and it seems to be related to my query being too complex. However, I did not write this query by hand, it came from Access2002. And this query worked fine to generate my report. So, why does it crash now??
The code below should add a record to another table when a box is ticked. It worked fine when I wrote it in a local Access 2003 form.I have since migrated the tables to Azure and connect via ODBC, and now I get this error:nOpenRecordsetBug.PNG
A search for Identities told me to modify the code as in the second screenshot, and I now have a different error: InvalidArgument.JPG
How can I have a user enter the WHERE criteria in the Set Rs statement below.
Set Rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("SELECT [Net] FROM [tblRecap] WHERE [Yr] = 2000 and [Event] = 'lancaster'")
I would like a message box to ask the user to define the [Yr] = and [Event] = fields since they would change from time to time and then pass the values to the OpenRecordset method. Is this possible? Can someone help supply the code?
A parameter query won’t work because when you manipulate these queries in DAO through VBA you need to supply the parameter value before you open the recordset object. If you don’t DAO generates an error.
Here is my code:
Option Compare Database Option Explicit
Private Sub ReportFooter_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer)
Dim ConsqWin As Long Dim ConsqLoss As Long Dim tmpWin As Long Dim tmpLoss As Long Dim Rs As DAO.Recordset Set Rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("SELECT [Net] FROM [tblRecap] WHERE [Yr = 2000 and [Event] = 'lancaster'") Do While Not Rs.EOF Do While Rs!Net > 1 tmpWin = tmpWin + 1 Rs.MoveNext If Rs.EOF Then Exit Do Loop If Rs.EOF Then Exit Do If tmpWin > ConsqWin Then ConsqWin = tmpWin tmpWin = 0 Rs.MoveNext Loop
Set Rs = Nothing
End Sub
By the way the YR field is a number and not a date so the WHERE clause doesn’t need #2000#
I split my database into a FE and BE to simplify the upgrading of the clients copy. I had a chance to implement that change today and except for this error all seems to be well.
The error is "Invalid Operation 3219 " and flags this line of code "Set rsTable = dbsCurent.OpenRecordSet("Import650tbl, dbOpenTable, dbAppendOnly) " when the error is triggered. The table Import650tbl is a temporary holding table to which I enter imported records. I then add some supporting information and then the records are added to live data table for further processing. After the data is added to the live table the information in the Import650tbl is deleted by a query to be ready for tomorrows processing.
This error prevents the process from working. I got around the problem by deleting the link to the BE for this table and creating the table in the FE. After that all was well.
Question: Why does the above OpenRecordSet fail on the linked table?
If the user enters something for 2 or more parameters it seems to work, but if they just enter a county, for example,, it gives an error message about the expression being too complex.
I have this code of a command button, which would allow me to generate the result of the SQL. I think the code is wrong... Can someone help? I guess something wrong with the bracket...
Indeed, I try to modify the SQL that works in a test query (as I want to know what went wrong with my code): the changes would be replace OR to a toggle option.
SELECT NewsClips.IssueDate, NewsClips.Title_Eng, NewsClips.Titile_Chi, NewsClips.NewsSource, NewsClips.[1CategoryMain], NewsClips.[1Sub-Category], NewsClips.[2CategoryMain], NewsClips.[2Sub-Category], NewsClips.hyperlink, NewsClips.FirstTwoPara, NewsClips.Notes, NewsClips.attachment FROM NewsClips WHERE (((NewsClips.NewsSource)=[Which News Source]) OR ((NewsClips.[1CategoryMain])=[Which Category?])) OR (((NewsClips.NewsSource)=[Which News Source]) OR ((NewsClips.[2CategoryMain])=[Which Category?])) ORDER BY NewsClips.IssueDate DESC;
In my Access Database I have a query (lets say qry1) and in this query i have 2 fields for start and end date, which is provided by 2 Get functions.
also i have qry2 based on qry1 then qry3 based on qry2 and finally qry4(using sql in code) based on qry3, and non of these 3 queries have the start and end date fields.
now here is the problem: I am trying to set the criteria in qry4 and then open a record set on this query(qry4) to use the data that it pulls out...
strsql = "" strsql = "SELECT Sum AS AREA_TOTAL " _ & "FROM qry3 " _ & "WHERE ENERGY_AREA like '" & Area & "';"
Set MyDB = CurrentDb
Set rst = MyDB.OpenRecordset(strsql)
but when the last line is executed I get this error message:
Runtime Error '3061': Too few parameters, expected 2.
i also tried doing this:
strsql = "" strsql = "SELECT Sum AS AREA_TOTAL " _ & "FROM qry3 " _ & "WHERE ENERGY_AREA like '" & Area & "';"
Set MyDB = CurrentDb
MyDB.QueryDefs("qry4").sql = strsql
Set rst = MyDB.OpenRecordset("qry4")
but when the last line is executed it gives me an error message saying that the query does not exist or the name is not spelled correctly. (Ps. I have created the query and the criteria does update once the Select statement is run in the code!)
again the reason for this is that the query has not been populated as the main query (qry1) needs 'strat date' and 'end date'!
Is there anyway I can pass these 2 parameters to qry4 directly using code? If there is a way then this will definitly work as i tried opening the query manually in the Query window and after I input the 2 dates in the input box the query ran successfully!
I would appreciate any help/suggestion guys, I need to sort this out quickly as i have a deadline... Cheers
I am trying to enter a user-defined parameter in a CrossTab query with little luck. It works fine if I enter the code already defined as in: >= #12/06/2006# but when I enter the code for a user-defined / input such as: >= [Enter date:], or if I try to redirect to a textbox on the active Form such as: >=[Me]![dfrom.Value] I get the error "Invalid field or Expression), although this syntax / code works fine if I do this in a normal query.
I have created a form with multi-select list boxes, behind which is the following code to transform the users' selections into query parameters.
Dim db As DAO.Database Dim qdf As DAO.QueryDef Dim varItem As Variant Dim strCriteria As String Dim strSQL As String
Set db = CurrentDb() Set qdf = db.QueryDefs("Test")
If Me!lstAB.ItemsSelected.Count > 0 Then For Each varItem In Me!lstAB.ItemsSelected strCriteria = strCriteria & "Centres.[Area Board] = " & Chr(34) _ & Me!lstAB.ItemData(varItem) & Chr(34) & "OR " Next varItem strCriteria = Left(strCriteria, Len(strCriteria) - 3) Else strCriteria = "Centres.[Area Board] Like '*'" End If strSQL = "SELECT * FROM Centres " & _ "Where " & strCriteria & ";" qdf.SQL = strSQL DoCmd.OpenQuery "Test"
Set db = Nothing Set qdf = Nothing
End Sub
I would like to allow the user to set, on the same form, which field they want the resultant data to be sorted by, preferably by having a tick box alongside each list box, which sets that field as the sort field. The form will obviously need to allow only one of these tick boxes to be selected.
Can anyone advise me on how to modify the above code to make this possible?
Hey guys, I have a simple design question I hope someone can help me with. I have little to no experience with Access, but I know enough to get around. Anyways, I'm working as an extern for a rock band. One of my assignments is to create a publicity contact database. I have all my forms and tables set up but I'm having some trouble creating my query. There are about 10 fields in the contact table. I want the user to be able to search any one of those 10 fields OR any combination of them. Is there a way to do this with only one query, where it willl prompt the user for only the fields they have selected to search?
I have a query that pulls information from two tables. Some of the fields that are being queried share the same name in the tables, [Reimbursed_Amount] and [Cancel_Fee] specifically. In Design View I have specified that I only want the query to pull these fields from the Event Information table. An error occurs when I try to run it, saying that I need to define which table the field is from in the SQL code.
But then after I added clarification in the SQL, when I run the query it now prompts for a parameter for each of these fields. Why is this happening? I leave it blank, so a parameter has no impact on the query. How can I stop this?
Here's the SQL, after I added the table clarification:
Code: SELECT (Sum(nz([Program_Cost])+nz([Millage_Fee])+nz([Auditorium_Cost])+nz([Cancel_Fee].[Event Information])-nz([Reimbursed_Amount].[Event Information]))) AS Total_Cost, [Shared Billing Information].Paid, [Shared Billing Information].Shared_Billing_ID, [Event Information].Shared_Billing_ID FROM [Shared Billing Information] RIGHT JOIN [Event Information] ON [Shared Billing Information].Shared_Billing_ID = [Event Information].Shared_Billing_ID
I have a report and export function which is based on date parameters. The field name called "date". However, I added a new field called "followup-date" because we would like to track customers that are returning back. Now, my problem is when I go to Export by date parameters or generate the report by certain date eg. July1st to July 28th, it only pulls up the record based on DATE field.
Is it possible for the date parameters to look up july1st to july 28th under date field as well as followup-date and pull up those records that are meet the date parameters? The reason I have to do this is because some customers do not come back for followup so I have to look under 'date' field too. While some customers can have more than one followup.
I am trying to run the below union query, but it keeps asking for FRGHT_BL!FB_CREAT_DTM as a parameter. I want it to only ask for the Start Date and End Date once.
SELECT * FROM qLOC_ID WHERE(((FRGHT_BL!FB_CREAT_DTM) Between [Enter Start Date] And [Enter End Date])) UNION SELECT * FROM qLOC_ID2 WHERE(((FRGHT_BL!FB_CREAT_DTM) Between [Enter Start Date] And [Enter End Date])) UNION Select * From qLOC_ID3 WHERE(((FRGHT_BL!FB_CREAT_DTM) Between [Enter Start Date] And [Enter End Date]));
I am trying to write a parameter query ... I have multiple fields the users *could* search, but they may want to search only one, and I am having a struggle figuring this out.
Ex. fields to search are Gender, Age, Date, etc., and I have created a parameter query that includes parameters for each of these fields. However, if I want to see all the females, thus leaving the other two parameters blank, I have no records in my result set. Clearly, I am doing something wrong -- I have searched the forum extensively before posting.
Thanks in advance, I am sure I am being simple and missing somethign....
Hi There, I am trying to get a query to pull dates from a form to use as limiting parameters for a report. One of my forms has the user enter a range of dates into two text boxes (a from-date in one box and a to-date in another) as the range of dates they want to pull information from a table via the query. These dates are also used in the Title header of the report that is generated from the query information. How can I get the query to use these dates in the text boxes, rather than having to use the "between / and" command on the criteria line of the query design? If I just have parameter windows pop up and have the user enter the dates there, I can't use those dates for the report, or can I? Any help would be appreciated. Maybe I haven't explained this properly, if so, I'll try again if I've just confused you.
I have a query that has multipal parameters for that query. I want to be able to set it up so that the person doesn't have to use all the parameters.. IE then can use just the dates, or just the test type etc...
Here is the sql that I am currently using:
SELECT tblApplicant.ApplicantID, tblApplicant.ApplicantLName, tblApplicant.ApplicantFName, tblApplicant.LastFour, tblApplicant.TestDate, tblApplicant.JacketExpireDate, tblApplicant.Comment, tblApplicant.HomePhone, tblApplicant.CellPhone, tblApplicant.WorkPhone, tblApplicant.ContinueProcessDate, [ApplicantLName] & ", " & [ApplicantFName] AS Name, tblYsNo.YesNoType, tblLuTestType.Type FROM tblYsNo INNER JOIN ((tblApplicant INNER JOIN tblLuTestType ON tblApplicant.TestType = tblLuTestType.TestType) INNER JOIN tblCaller ON tblApplicant.ApplicantID = tblCaller.ApplicantID) ON tblYsNo.YesNoMain = tblApplicant.Interested WHERE (((tblApplicant.ApplicantID)=[Forms]![frmMainData]![ApplicantID]) AND ((tblApplicant.JacketExpireDate) Between [Forms]![frmReport]![txtStartInt] And [Forms]![frmReport]![txtEndInt])) ORDER BY tblApplicant.ApplicantLName;
My database contains information about events running in different areas. I want to make the filtering options for this information as flexible as possible and so want a query where most of the fields can have criteria set, but where they can optionally be left blank and so the data will not be filtered on that field. To do this, I am trying to create form which collects together the parameters required by the user which the query can then pick up.
I want to use list boxes which contain all the entries for a particular field, looked up from the original table (e.g. all the different town names from the town field of all the records). This will allow the user to select the one(s) they want to filter for.
However, using list boxes presents me with the following problems, with which I would appreciate help:
1) How do I refer to a list box from a query and get the correct code created? I could do this where I'm just refering to a text box, but then a text box only contains one value. How do I tell Access to look for any of the towns selected in a list box?
2) There will be options on my form to filter the data by any of the fields of which it is made up. Obviously, the user will not want to filter every field and so I need a way to tell Access that if the user has not made a selection for a particular field, then it should not filter that field when the query runs.
If anyone can help me with these two things I would greatly appreciate it. I've so nearly finished developing a new system and this is the last hurdle I need to overcome!
This is my first time writing a pass through query pinging sql tables using an input parameter from a form. I have gotten as far as executing the query but I can't seem to display the result to ensure it's pulling the right records. I also want to be able to append the records to a table. Below is the code I have written so far:
Sub GETRT()
Code: Dim db As DAO.Database Dim QDF As QueryDef Dim STRSQL As String Dim RS As Recordset STRSQL = "SELECT * FROM LAB_MESR.ODM_RT_DAYS" & _ "WHERE LOCATION_ID=" & [Forms]![PARMS]![STR_NBR] Set db = CurrentDb Set QDF = db.QueryDefs("001:GET_LT") QDF.SQL = STRSQL End Sub
Do access VBA implements parameters passed to query strings in all following parameters?I've been working in ASP.NET/Razor C# and this would be an example of how it would be done:
im working in MS Access 2007.what im trying to do is have a query run specific parameters if a check box is selected. So if the check box is selected than the query filters the "Tranche" column so that the only records that shown are records that have the "Tranche" coloumn = 1.
I know this can be done either in vba code or in the criteria section of a query but i dont know that appropriete language for either.
In vba code i was able to get this far. But..... i dont know how to call the criteria line from a query?
This is my very simple unfinished code.
My query is called [Tranch Query] and the column i want to filter with is call [Tranche]. The check box is called [Check0].
Private Sub Check0_AfterUpdate() If Check0 = True Then 'How do i set the query criteria????? End Sub
I have set up a parameter query in Access 2003 that asks the user for the "Section", such as "Admin", "Accounting" etc.
I need them to be able to respond to the prompt with more than one section if they want- sometimes just one, sometimes two or three or four.
So they can get "Accounting" and "Admin" both in the records that are returned.
The code: SELECT T_ElainesMaster.Section, T_ElainesMaster.Login, T_ElainesMaster.Workstation, T_ElainesMaster.NT, T_ElainesMaster.Barcode, T_ElainesMaster.[PC model], T_ElainesMaster.[Emp Name], T_ElainesMaster.[swap or not], T_ElainesMaster.[Exp Date] FROM T_ElainesMaster WHERE (((T_ElainesMaster.Section) Like [What section would you like to include?])) ORDER BY T_ElainesMaster.Section;
