Is there any way I can remove specific information from all the records in a field using a query?
For example- how could I write a query that would remove the "NME" from NME ACTIVE; FENCE CO INC? I know you could add text to a field by including & "text".
Let's say I have a list of customers. For each customer I have much more info on other lists (order list, personal info list, bank info list, and so on) - all are of course connected properly.
Now let's say a certain customer is no longer my customer, so I want to remove him from the customer-list. But, I want to move him to a different list - past-customers - so all the information that was related to that customer will remain so. In short, I want to remove from the customer-list without affecting the related data.
I need help on this, from what the best concept is, to what I need to look into using:
I store Quote data from phone calls into tblQuotes. There is a seperate table that holds much of the same information except that it is for actual orders called tblOrders.
As far as function goes, I have each working much the way I need it to except for one thing... If a sales person is on the phone with a customer with a quote already in the system, right now they re-enter the data into the Order table. Most times, the order is what was quoted, but maybe with a few small changes (so I will wnt to keep a historical record of the quote). How could I copy the contents of the quote recordset into the recordset for an order, where all the sales rep does from there is edit the quote to the actual order?
Would I use VBA or an update query that is executed via VAB? Honestly, I am unsure how to do this at all, I hope someone has seen this before and has a good suggestion...
Thank you.
I have an access database and table name called student. The table includes field name such as identification_id and registration_no. The value in identification_id is 3434-34-213 and registration_no are 234/45. Can i query the field name so i can get both value without the sign - and / so the output will be 343434213 for identification_id and 23445 for registration_no?
View 5 Replies View RelatedHow do I make an append query only append the records beginning with the next autonumber?
I have linked tables in db...one db is for warehouse employees to input their orders and the other table is in the original db for managers to use for reports. I need to append the records to original db throughout the day, but the records cannot be deleted from warehouse db because it keeps running total of order minutes (for production purposes) so employees know how many minutes they have (and need to make up) through the day. Also, managers need up to date db so they can see if they are on track.
The autonumber field is my primary key..
I hope this all makes sense.
Thanks in advance

For some reason the query I built will not let me enter any info into it. Is this a relationship problem or because I am using the querie in a form that has subforms, (I can enter new info into the subforms.) or because I wrote code to just print the report to the current record? Or something else????
Thanks!

Hi there,
I just can't figure out how to solve my next problem. What I need to do is to make a query showing all the country's next to germany(nr.5) with their capitals. There are three tables which I can use, nr.1 showing the country_id's with their "neighbour country's", nr.2 showing the name of the country's with their capital_id's and nr.3 showing the name of the capital with their corresponding country-id.
Is there anybody who could help me with this problem, or has some suggestions? If you find this message unclear, i would love to e-mail you the tables.
As i am dutch my english isn't that good.
Thanks in advance

Is it possible to construct a query that uses information from one table to run a series of Like OR Like... criteria?
I have created a table that contains partial part numbers and would like to query a second table for all the part numbers that contain these partial part numbers.
Meaning, BACB30DX6 would return the desired information for BACB30DX6-7, BACB30DX6-8 and so on.
The TBL_PARTS_FAM_DIA table contains approx. 200 items so 200 LIKE statements can't be the way to go... I'm hoping.
I tried: LIKE "*[TBL_PARTS_FAM_DIA]![PARTS_FAM_DIA] *" thinking that perhaps this would go through all 200 items... but of course that was wishful thinking.
Do I really need 200 LIKE statements or is there some easier way to do this.
Thanks in advance!
Okay I have a database that stores information on some payments.
Payments can be made on different dates and multiple times during the month.
There is an account number which will have duplicates in the table if there is more than one payment. This is fine.
However, I need a query which will show only those records for account numbers which appear only once.
So if it has duplicates, it is ignored, otherwise it's reported.
TIA for the help.
Okay I have 2 tables and I used queries to filter and delete the info off those tables. Now I combined the 2 tables by using a query which is query 1. What I found was a few cells that are blank cells.
I tried creating another query based on query 1 from the 2 tables to try and delete it but it won't work. I tried everything and nothing seems to work. I can't filter the data since I am creating another query called query 3 to display the final results.
I have two tables:
tblSITE and tblUSID (joined by SITEID)
and I am trying to create a query which lists each site and the USID with the latest date in its ConstructionDate field (USID and ConstructionDate are both in tblUSID). If I omit the USID from the query and run a totals with MAX on the ConstructionDate field, I return what I would like to, but I want to add the PK (USID) of the record with the latest ConstructionDate for another query, and every way I attempt it the query returns multiple records per SiteID.
In a table I have a field that gets its value from a lookup with multiple columns. Is it possible to query information in the columns rather than the actual value.
Here is an example of a single field value in the table I want to query (this would be in a drop down box in the table):
ID | Name
1 Nick
2 Nick
The actual values are the 1 and 2, but I would like to query the name 'Nick'. How would I do this?

Hi,
I have the following set up on a form to pull together a query (by form) and resulting report:
Publication
Sector
Product
Region
Each publication can have multiple sectors/products/regions. The resulting query therefore duplicates the publication, for example:
Publication 1 Sector 1 Product 1 Region 1
Publication 1 sector 2 product 1 region 1
publication 1 sector 2 product 2 region 1
etc etc...
The report ONLY has publication on it, but as it is based upon the query utilising the 4 factors above, the resulting report is:
Pub 1
Pub 1
Pub 1
Pub 2
etc
I want the report to only list the publications once - i have tried "hide duplicates" from the form field properties, however this hides the text but leaves a big gap on the resulting report when generated where the duplicate would be if it were not hidden.
There must be a simpler way to acheive this than getting another query to create a table based on the first query which (the table) only includes the publication name, and is filtered to remove duplicates through a primary key...
Can anyone help!?
cheers
amx
I have this query:
INSERT INTO 1_2_06 ( Issue_ID, Assigned_To, ListType )
SELECT Issue_ID, Assigned_To, 'QPT'
FROM QPTActions
WHERE QPTActions.Entry_Date<=DateValue('1/2/2006') And QPTActions.Close_Date>DateValue('1/2/2006');
The Assigned_To values are a Lastname, Firstname format as they come out of the first database. But I need the comma stripped before they get entered into the INSERT database. Is it possible to do this on the fly?
I have field called [LOCATION] that varies in length. I need to remove any alpha characters at the end, if there are any. Listed are some examples.

Hi,
I'm trying to run an update query on a field called "DisplayURL" to remove all of the spaces that the field contains. Some have 1 space, some 5 and some have no spaces.
I'm using Access 2000 and the replace function ( Replace("DisplayURL"," ","") or Replace([DisplayURL]," ",""). However it produces an error stating that there is an "Undefined function "Replace" in expression".
I've searched online and found that Access 2000 doesn't have this function, but its easy to create a "wrapper" to make it work.
I've tried various examples online with no luck. Does anyone know what "module" I'd have to create to get this working, and how to "call" the function as I do not understand how to do this?
Thanks in advance for your help, I've been having a nightmare with this problem.
Thanks again.

Hello friends,
I have slitted my database and given each user a copy of the front end so tha I can work on the master. I have notice that each time I sent them an updated copy of the new file once they replace the old one in their C drive, when they run a push button which makes run certain append queries, I have noticed that the message comes up although I have removed it from the Options settings. I was wandering if there was a way I can exclude this via code. THank you.
Wow, seems like this is my favorite place in the world now.
My problem is that I need to append data from one table to another, on the condition that any of the fields in the record have changed since the last time the query ran.
For example,
tblEmployee has the fields 'EmployeeID', 'Name', 'Position', and 'Office'. We are appending to tblEmployeeHistory with the same fields in addition to a field for a date. When executed, the query should append the records where something has changed and attach today's date to them. This enables us to later use another query to call up old information based on the date.
Once again, this is a hypothetical situation and not my actual database. Any solution or comments are welcome.
I need help to figure out how to create a form that includes a place to enter date ranges (A start and an end date: the field name in the table is CrossClampDate), patient name, and case number as a search. I have just taken 3 levels of Access classes and saw an example of this, but we never went into it and from the Properties box for all parts of the form I still can't decipher how it was done.
Basically, I want to run the operations a query goes through by inputing this information in a form.
I have created an actual query that performs this operation, and it works. But I am prompted for each criteria separately in individual pop up boxes. I just need to streamline this operation for the users.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!!
Actually, I don't think i've done this right, but here's the goal I wish to achieve.
I have 2 tables, one containing contract info and another containing client info. I have the 2 related using the client name field. I have a form which is based on the contract table which contains a drop down field of client names. When I select a client, I want it to update a read only client address field within the form, just for display purposes.
Is this easy to do and can anyone point me towards some examples on how to achieve this???
Many thanks.
Been using the access database created by a previous employee for a year without any issues. All of the sudden, the data I am entering in the table is not showing up in the query or report.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI working with Access 2010 and a form with criteria controls, a requery button and a subform that displays the query. I wanted to add a text box that would display some aggregate information about the query results. Like how many results were returned or what the average is in a column of numbers stuff like that.
If at all possible I was hoping to have the text box display aggregate information of the whole query but when a specific entry in the table is clicked I was hoping to have it show aggregate detailed information about that entry opposed to the whole table. So I am not sure if that changes the solution but I wanted to put it out there.In my searches it looks like Dlookup is the way to go but I have seen a lot of people use Dlookup in very different ways so I might be wrong.
I have a query which contains about 19 fields in it and some of the fields contain parameters. What I'm trying to do is to run the query using the parameters I've set, but at the same time remove fields that are empty (therefore only fields that are populated will be shown). I've tried using the 'is not null' parameter but it seems to interfere with the other parameters that I've set and as a result the query doesn't show any information. Also the field containing the 'is not null' parameter is still being shown. I'm not really sure what else to try!! Any suggestions would be most appreciated!!
