How To Use Sections Of One Table In Multiple Tables
Dec 1, 2013
I have quite a limited knowledge of MS Access (2007).
My question is; How do you use sections of one table in other tables?
For example: In tbl_One I input a users Name and Age and then say Weight, Height, BMI, etc.
Then in tbl_Two it uses the same Name and Age in tbl_1 but has other information such as Job, Skills etc.
This is not my actual database, however this analogy works, and they must be in separate tables, even though above they could all just be in a single table.

Hello,
I have not used access that much, but what I am looking to do is basically have 2 details sections within a report that will have different records in them.
I first used a subreport but that really did not work as intended. It left large gaps in between the records and just plain didnt work.
Here is a image of what I am trying to achieve:

As you can see theres two different sections. One is for regular campaigns and one is for extended campains. There is a field in the table that has the extended date. For the compaigns that field should be blank or null and for the extended campaigns it is not blank or null.
Is there anyway to achieve this in Access 2003, if so can you tell me or describe me the steps?
Thank you!

Hi,
I need to create a report for each employee in my company of all compensation information. The report is going to need to have multiple detail sections on the report for example to list all benefits specific to the employee and all beneficiaries.
I tried using a subreport to produce those detail sections that I needed but once I placed this subreport inside a box on the main report each detail I created increased the size of the box. I also thought about making the detail section a list box and writing all of the information there. Would there be a better or easy way to accomplish this?
I am also thinking I am going to have to save all of this information in a table and based the report on that table?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
tones

I found a post where it shows how to create a single collapsable/expandable section. I am needing to do this for 10 sections with a lot of information in between each section. The coding that this post provides does not seem doable for that many sections. How to create a collapsable/expandable subform?

I have 10 tables, 30+ fields on each table (every table has the same 'account number' field). I only need from 5 - 20 fields from each table. How do I get the certain fields from each table and put them in a table, query or report?

What I have is a database setup with multiple tables in which different areas of my DC can input information simultaneously into their respective tables. I then have another database linked to it for myself to have a live view of each updated record. I would like to see all the records of each table in 1 single table (possibly just sorted ascending by time). Each table has the same Field headings but may have different qtys of records. As I will then have it linked to an Excel table to VLOOKUP from it.
I have tried Union coding but always get Syntax Error etc.

I have a table for a multiple parents linked to a child table. I need to figure out a way to only allow 1 parent to be coded as primary, 1 as secondary, and then the rest as other... I thought about making Primary/Secondary/Other a primary key. But then I can only have 1 other. I would have to make a finite number of parents that could be entered and I want an infinite number.... My end goal is to have a report that only has a primary and second parent on it, but the rest of the parents still exist in the table...
*Child_ID
Parent_First_Name
*Primary/Secondary/Other

I have three tables: Vehicles; Vehicle Reallocated; and Vehicles Retired. I have a form that runs a query to find all the info in the Vehicles tbl that is not "Retired", not visible in the form. I then have the option to toggle to a Reallocated or Retired form. When i toggle to the reallocated form, i have the like fields in that table (ie Van #, Vin, Make etc) pulling the info from the hidden subform with the vehicle query, so i do not need to fill in repeat data. However, when i add a reallocated date and the new clinic that vehicle is for, i get the record ID for the vehicle reallocated table as expected, but when i save none of the data moved over from the query saves in the record?
How to get all the data on the reallocated form to save?

Well I'm hoping someone here can point me in the right direction. This is my problem... We've got about 50 Access databases scattered across the network. Each network database contains the same tables and fields, but of course, each one contains different information (one network database is for DepartmentA, another network database is for DepartmentB, another network database is for DepartmentC, and so on).
What my boss wants is a single table/view that displays all the information contained in every network database table. The other part of this is that my boss then wants to be able to make changes in this single, all encompassing table/view and have those changes be pushed back out to the individual network databases. Is this possible? And if so, can someone help point me in the right direction? I'm still a little new at Access, but I can manipulate VBA code and all that if need be (I'm learning more and more as I get deeper and deeper into this project).
Thanks!

I am currently designing a database to solve our organisation's training requirements. The db needs to be able to identify an individual member of staff at any particular site and list all the medical devices that they have training on and to what level of competency. So far I have five separate tables:
Staff details
Site
Devices
Competency/Risk
Equipment
By using unique identifiers within each table, we can, in theory, comply with the requirements.
Now here is the problem. Having talked it through with a colleague, we have two possible options.
A. Using a form based on the staff member, combine the salient details and, where needed, create additional fields (such as dates and tick boxes) to record odd items (this is my preference)
or
B. Based on the site, create a make-table query and form a table, sorted by site and then staff, listing all the equipment and competency levels. Given that some staff will work at multiple sites, the table will probably contain over 6500 records with lots of duplication (you can see my bias!)
Which solution is probably the best or should we be looking at solution that combines elements of both?
Thanks in advance
David

I have to assign multiple table validations to my table but they are not even working separately.
1) I have two combo box controls: [Tocolytics] & [multiple_Tocolytics], 3 check boxes and 1 text box.
Rule:
IIf(([Tocolytic?]="Yes" Or [Multiple Tocolytic?]="Yes"),([Indomethacin]=True Or [Nifedipine]=True Or [Nitroglycerin]=True Or Len([Other])>0),"check one of the boxes")
2)Two combo boxes The answers are mutually exclusive. If one is yes then the other must be "No" or "unable to determine"
Rule:
IIf(Oxytocin Infusion - no PPH]="Yes",([Oxytocin Infusion - if PPH]="No" Or [Oxytocin Infusion - if PPH]="Unable to determine"),[Oxytocin Infusion - if PPH]="Yes")

I have a table named [Brand] and several tables named [Brand@@@Models], one for each field in the Brand table.I want each field from the [Brand] table to be related to it's specific Model table. I thought like that so I don't have a Brand#1 related to Brand#2 models, etc.. I didn't want to have all the models for all the brands in a single table, was I right to think like this?

Please could you advise me if tables have to be linked in order to perform a query on multiple tables? For example searching for a date and matching records on more than one table at the same time.

I have three tables, with the following data (fields separated by "-" here):
Unit - Customer Number - Customer Name - Type of A/R - Total A/R
Unit - Customer Number - Customer Name - Type of A/R - Total Overdue
Unit - Customer Number - Customer Name - Type of A/R - > 90 Day Balance
I would like to combine these tables into one table with the following field names:
Unit - Customer Number - Customer Name - Type of A/R - Balance
When I append the data, it comes out like this:
Unit - Customer Number - Customer Name - Type of A/R - Total A/R - Type of A/R - Total Overdue - Type of A/R - > 90 Day Balance
I would like this new table to include all rows from the original tables, sandwiched on top of each other. As far as I can work it, the Append Query only adds the data as add'l columns; not as add'l rows. I tried changing the field names entirely, so that the final field in each table is called "Balance." However, I still get the same result as above - the columns are added, instead of rows. I swear there's a way to do this, I just can't remember it!

I am great with Excel but not soo much with Access 2010. I Excel, what I needed to do was very simple but duplicating what I did in Access is not soo easy.I am trying to calculate billings for FSA & HRA. I have set up one table with all the data. I want to add columns to the table to calculate:
1. Is there an account balance-excel formula:
2. If the account is still active
3. If the plan year run out is "active runout" or "runout over"
4. calculate each account type with a rate *count of FSA accounts = total to bill
Here are my excel formulas that for the life of me I can't get to work.
Account balance==IF(V2="HCRA",(IF(AB2-AD2>0,"Available Balance",IF(AB2-AD2=0,"Zero Balance","Negative Balance"))),((IF(AC2-AD2>0,"Available Balance",IF(AC2-AD2=0,"Zero Balance","Negative Balance")))))
Active runout/runout over=
=IF(AG2="YES","Active Runout",(IF(S2=W2,(IF(AF2>$AJ$1,(IF(AH2="Zero Balance","Runout Over","Active Runout")),"Runout Over")),(IF(AE2>$AJ$1,(IF(AH2="Zero Balance","Runout Over","Active Runout")),"Runout Over")))))
Active account=
=IF(D2<$AJ$1,"NO",IF(W2>$AJ$1,IF(S2=W2,"YES","NO") ,"NO"))
Can I have calculated fields that refer back to a calculated field?

I have a risk table containing risks and risk owners (many owners for one risk), meaning that I have two risk owners columns. What I would like to do is to connect both risk owner columns (containing the name IDs) to the Names table. But Access does not allow to connect more than 1 column to another.

How can I import from multiple tables into one table without replacing the destination table.so that the destination table consist of old data and new imported data.
For example: I have table A with date 130205 and I need to import from table B and C which the dates are 130206 and 130207. Those 3 tables already have the same column numbers and data type.

I'm trying to create a database at work keep track of projects I'm working on and all the different events that happen during the project.
I want the main table to be customers, which will include the job number (as the primary key) name, address etc. Then I need other tables that have information about the building permit that will include dates city names etc and then another table that would include information on our sales people and so on, there would be maybe 5 tables that all connect back to the customer table.
I have tried this several times and keep running into problems, I'm sure it has something to do with the relationships. I'm missing something. I can create 2 tables and it works fine but once I add a 3rd it wont work.

What I wanted to do was try and import from 5 excel sheets into one table and merge them into 1 record.
E.g. I have pupils with test results for maths, English and ICT.
I have 3 spreadsheets called Maths, English and ICT and I wanted to merge them into the test results table all under that specific pupil.
Also I've been searching how to create an import button on my form as I have locked all the ribbons but can't find a simple way, and especially if I want the user to specify the file path.

So I have a form that has a sub form on it (based off of a junction table), indicating which category a particular project belongs to. It can belong to multiple categories:
ProjectID
100
Category
Admin
Finance
But I want to run a query to find all of the projects that are both admin and finance. When I do that now, it comes up as two separate records in the query, which is fine... but I have to know the projects before hand to find if it's in both, because it returns heaps of records, anything that says admin or finance... and that defeats the whole purpose. I want the query to show me JUST the projects that have both of those in their subform..

Right now, I have 4 related tables. There's a table with companies, one with people involved with companies, a table linking the two by having foreign keys of the company number and people names, and a table that indicates directors and their alternates.
Since there's a one-to-many relationship for companies/people to company-peopleID (A person can run multiple companies, a company has multiple directors, it's easier this way), a person's name can appear multiple times, as can a company, within that table.
In a company, a director may or may not have 1 and only 1 alternate director to him/herself. So, I thought the easiest way was to put an autonumber in the Company-personID table and have a table (alternates) that had two fields, "alternate" and "director", both using that autonumber to link them. However, it appears as though I can't link the same primary key twice to two foreign keys of the same table.

I have create 6 tables for library books (which are differentiated by categories). Each table has different category and unique ID name e.g. F1, F2, F3..(for table 1), G1, G2, G3..(for table 2) and so on. How do I combine all those tables into 1 table for easy search for a book rather than open up each table? Tried append query but its ID run as 1, 2, 3... , not F1, F2, F3 and it only append 1 table, not the rest.
