IIF Statement To Pull String From Memo Field
Sep 12, 2006
I have a 3rd party database where I have no control over how the data is entered. I've been given the task of creating a Crystal report that would need to gather data from two databases. The link between the two databases in my report would be on a quote number. In one database, the quote number is in it's own field. In the 3rd party database, the quote number is stored in a memo field along with other data.
Here's an example:
4000 C7875
9003267 T7761
90000167/4010/T6895
4010 T7152A
TPCA #1756/2914
The data I'm after is
C7875
T7761
T6895
T7152A
*No data from the 5th row since the data after the "T" isn't numerical
So far I'm thinking of using an IIF statement to check for the existance of a C or T, then if true, use a nested IIF statement within the first to check for numeric, if true, use the Mid function to pull out the quote number.
My first concern is this could become a complicated IIF statement and was wondering if there was another direction I should be looking in acheiving this.
My second concern is if I go with this method, some of the quote numbers have a space after them, some of them have no space after them, some may even have a "/" after them. How would I go about accomplishing this?

I import a CSV field which has not preserved the CR/LF when it was exported from BCM Remedy. There is no setting for that. The memo field prints on my report like this:
A custom solution would be developed, that once implemented, could become the standard product in similar situation. Normally would assign to Network Engineering, but will work with Ray and the IPT Team to cost out the solution and get approval to proceed. 2012/05/24 10:44:28 AM PCOLLINS Sent to Ray Massie for review to determine if a solution needs to be proposed, or if they can wait for the National IPT solution to be ready in 2013.
I want to add VBA code that inserts a CR/LF in the memo field before all but the first occurance of a string that looks like a date, the first occurance doesn't need it. I will do it right after I import the CSV file into the table, so it happens only once, and it always prints and displays the CR/LF.
The memo field is called "NBS Update" and the table is called "CCRR Remedy Data"Here is what I have, but don't actually know what to put in to find the date and add a CR/LF:
Code:
Dim db As DAO.Database
Code:
Dim db As DAO.Recordset
Dim srtSQL As String
[code]...

In my statment below the ID is an autonumber. I placed it in the first part ofthe SQL string..but not where I have to variables referenced...
I have to add it to the SQL statement...Its not a varible although I can make it one by getting the largest number nad adding one...
Do I have to make it a non-autonumber and do it like I said above
Or is there another way to treat the autonumber (ID) in the SQL INSERT INTO statement...
THanks
Code:MySQL = "INSERT INTO dbo_data ("MySQL = MySQL & "ID,Name,Owners_Residence,Notice_Expiration,Notes,N otice_Number,Status,Notice_Date,Property_Address,N uisance_Type,Addition_Name,Range,Lot,Block,Zip_Cod e,Display_PID,Sec_tion,Township,Property_City,Prop erty_State,Property_Zip"MySQL = MySQL & ") values ("MySQL = MySQL & "'" & varName & "','" & varOwners_Residence & "','" & varNotice_Expiration & "','" & varNotes & "','" & varNotice_Number & "','" & varStatus & "','" & varNotice_Date & "','" & varProperty_Address & "','" & varNuisance_Type & "','" & varAddition_Name & "','" & varRange & "','" & varLot & "','" & varBlock & "','" & varProperty_Zip & "','" & varDisplay_PID & "','" & varSec_tion & "','" & varTownship & "','" & varProperty_City & "','" & varProperty_State & "','" & varZip_Code & "'"MySQL = MySQL & ");"

I am developing a calender to display HOTEL room occupancy (past,present) and combine with future "outlook" dates and 1/0 values from active registrations that go beyond the present date.
I am working with MS ACCESS 2007. My problem is ONE SPECIFIC QUERY AND IIF STATEMENT. I want to concatenate some text (using &) along with numbers converted to text (using the CSTr function). I am using iif function and I want to use the full text string as a variable argument to be executed in the iif function. The result of the &concatenate is a text field like [p1] or [p2] or [p#] with numbers 1-31.
But, I do not want the final result as the argument. I want the query and iif to use the string expression written into the argument as the variable argument that can be calculated based on OTHER numbers that change everyday in the daily run of the calender.
The field in the statement [calc number] is a date conversion factor that changes everyday.
I want the iif statement to execute using the string as a variable argument. I am writing only within the QUERY to define the query object. I am not writing into any SQL module or code. My field definition and iif statement is below (calc number changes everyday)
CalDate18: iif(18 greater date();"[p" & [calc number] & "]";0
I do not have greater-than key on this international keyboard !
When I use this in an update query, I get format conversion error. When I use the same definition in MAKE-TABLE query, it gives the resolved value "[p1]" for the value of [CalDate18] ......... that is not what I want.
I want the string to be taken literally and executed. Seems there may be a special character to precede the argument or WRAP the argument such as done in Excel. Example # "[p" & [calc number] & "]" #

Sorry if this has been asked before but I have searched and couldn't find an answer
I have a string that is set on startup (username) and have another form(hidden) that loads on startup this form contains information on what forms and options the user can access. Just having a little trouble using the string to pull the correct record, the information in the string would be from the primary key field on the table.
Thanks
Ryan

I have a text field in a Table and on a Query called "Notes" In that field that has data like below:
[04/02/2015:BD] Project is to be assessed by Solutions Planning
[03/27/2015:BD] Project prioritized
[03/14/15:BR] Entered to system
Im trying to find a way to pull just the most recent line of text, in this case
[04/02/2015:BD] Project is to be assessed by Solutions Planning
into the field next to "Notes" or wherever - an empty field in the query. I searched around, found some stuff and I was thinking of having the code look at the first "[" and count the length to the next "[" and pull out whats in between. Looks like the bracket causes issues in the module.

I have a series of IDs in an 'articles' table stored as text, e.g.
hb-123456789-e-068
hb-123456789-e-0069
hb-123456789-e-70
hb-123456789-e-00027
and I'm trying to pull the max value of the number after the -e- for a given set of them. In this example, I'd want to return the number 70. I'm then going to use that to create the next ID and populate another field.
The IDs are not used as the primary key. And while the previous IDs used leading zeros inconsistently, new IDs will not have leading zeros.
Here's what I have so far, but it doesn't seem to pull the number after the -e- at all. I think this section here is the problem, even though the same logic works in a query:
Code:
selectedERef = Val(Right(rs![masterArticleID], Len(rs![masterArticleID]) - InStrRev(rs![masterArticleID], " - ")))
Code:
Public Function MaxArticleERef(hbID As Long) As Variant
On Error GoTo err_handler
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim strSql As String
Dim maxERef As Variant
[code]....

I'm trying to find a function in access that could do the following:
ZAB103-3012
ZAF405-HD-0001
Turn those cells into:
AB103
AF405-HD
Pulling everything to the right of the Z in the last step is the easy part but I can't figure out what function would be able to find the last "-" in the cell and pull everything to the left of it.

I am having a problem to get my query to run properly. I have a huge IIf statement that doesn't seem to be working but I am not sure what is wrong with it. What it is supposed to do is return a good, actionable, or poor based on a specified weight and an actual weight. So what the query does is pull information from a table based on the specified weight and then using that information it should give back the correct rating in the last column.
Here are the conditions:
Poor:
AW(Actionable Weight)<Lower Actionable Weight
AW> Upper Actionable Weight
Actionable:
Lower Actionable<AW<Lower Acceptable
Upper Acceptable<AW< Upper Actionable
Good:
Lower Acceptable<AW<Upper Acceptable
The lower acceptable, actionable, and upper acceptable, actionable are different numbers based on the specified weight entered.
Here is the IIf Statement I currently have and I wasnt sure if order mattered or what I was doing wrong..
Rating: IIf([LOWER ACTOINABLE]<[Actual Weight]<[LOWER ACCEPTABLE],"Actionable",(IIf([LOWER ACCEPTABLE]<[Actual Weight]<[UPPER ACCEPTABLE],"Good",(IIf([UPPER ACCEPTABLE]<[Actual Weight]<[UPPER ACTIONABLE],"Actionable","Poor")))))

I am trying to write vba code to enter a form. A am using an SQL statement in vba to enter the form with it.
I want to include a string variable in the WHERE clause of the SQL statement. The string variable is introduced in the DIM statement before coming up to the SQL statement.
The following is the SQL statement. numrukarta is the string variable I want to introduce. I need to know the exact punctuation to be able to insert it into this statement.
StrSq1 = " SELECT Employees.NName, Employees.SSurname, WorkItems.IDcardNo, WorkItems.DDate, WorkItems.EntryTime, WorkItems.FinishTime, WorkItems.Roster" _
& " FROM Employees INNER JOIN WorkItems ON Employees.IDcardNo = WorkItems.IDcardNo" _
& " WHERE (((WorkItems.IDcardNo)= numrukarta) AND ((WorkItems.DDate)=Date()) AND ((WorkItems.FinishTime) Is Null);" AND (Not (WorkItems.Roster) Is Null))

Hello Everyone,
I am having trouble with our receiving database. This database consists of two tables. One for vendors, which basically contains their vendor ID as well as vendor name and phone # etc. The other table is our receiving data table. When our receiving person receives product in, they log this in the receiving table including info such as date, autonumber for record, vendor etc. The problem is, when the person selects the vendor id, which is set up as a lookup field, we would like to have the vendor name pop up atuomatically within that record. I cannot for the life of me figure out why this isn't happening. The person is using a form to enter all of this data and runs a summary report at the end of the day. Our accounting dept. is requesting this info be added, but I cannot seem to figure it out.
Thanks so much for any assistance!
Amy (monet1369);)

I have a slight problem here with a database program I am designing. I have two excel spreadsheets, one created by one department here, and the other created by a second department.
I have the access program importing the relevant fields from both programs into 2 tables. Table 1 is the listing of employees in the company and their info (minus the location where they work). Table 2 is the listing of employees who are in this facility.
I need to prepare a report of all employees in this facility who appear on the other table.
I have a field in each table (both called F1) with the employee names.
Is there a way I can run a report in Access where it pulls all the info I need into a Report as long as the name appears in both tables F1 fields?
Even if I can create another table based on that info, and then just do a full dump to a report from that new table, that would be great.
I am not familiar with VB or SQL really, but I figure something like this would be doable, I just don't know how to go about writing it :
If Table1.F1 == Table2.F1 Then {
Append Table1.* INTO NewTable3
}
Something where if the name on F1 in Table1 matches the name on F1 in Table2, it takes all the data from that record and appends it or dumps it brand new into a NewTable3..
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Bill

I have a query that is pulling a date from a Form. In my Query Criteria, I can put:
Code : >=[Forms]![frmAdhoc].[Date]
or
Code : <=[Forms]![frmAdhoc].[Date]
or
Code : =[Forms]![frmAdhoc].[Date]
And it works fine, but I don't want to hardcode the ">=", "<=" or "="
I would like the user to be able to choose ">=", "<=" or "=", from another field on the Form, so I am trying to code it on the query like this:
Code:
IIf([Forms]![frmAdhoc].[Variable]=">=",>=[Forms]![frmAdhoc].[Date],IIf([Forms]![frmAdhoc].[Variable]="<=",<=[Forms]![frmAdhoc].[Date],IIf([Forms]![frmAdhoc].[Variable]="=",[Forms]![frmAdhoc].[Date])))
But it isn't working for the ">=" or the "<=". It just gives me a blank result.

I have a report with a calculated field. This calculated field needs to pull the value or total from a field in another report. I think the formula is :
=([AssmntC].Reports!totalreqamnt4)
but I'm getting ?Name as the result.
The report is AssmntB where I need to have the value copied.
The original report is AssmntC and the field is totalreqamnt4 where the value is originally calculated.
totalreqmant4 is also a calculated field which sums fields from a query.
Help with the formula? please?

I created a a table with multiple columns. For example the table looks like as follows:
Table name - Observationcode
Code Value Description
CCH 1000 Heavy Crack
CCM 750 Medium Crack
CCL 500 Low Crack
I created fields on the subform - frmsubmain1
Field names are as follows:
Observation Code
Value
Description
I created combobox for a field called "observation code" so that the above mentioned table "observationcode" appear as a pull down menu to select from multiple lists. In the property section I bound the feild "Observation Code" to " column 1" to record the item in the column 1. I reapted this process for the fields "Value" but this time I bound the field to column 2 to show the value rate or value for the selected code. Again I reapeated this process for field name called "Description" but this time I bound the column to the column 3 to record the description for the corresponding code.
On the main form - frmmain
I created a field called Rate to calculate the total value in the subform "frmsubmain1" the validation rule looks like as follows:
=sum(Forms![frmsubmain1]![Value])
None of these seems like working except for the first one "Observation code". Observation code is looking into the right column and registering the right code but not the other two fields are not looking to the right columns, instead they are looking into the firts coloumn. I don't know why. Can anyone help me resolve these issues. I appreciate your help. Thanks.

Trouble is some fields are blank and when this is so I want it to pull the last two letters from the [Notes] field. I have attached the database. The query is [QryDeductionsandSleep Ins].

My report is grouped by a Billing Group #...within each billing group there are sub invoice numbers that are tied to the main billing group # (they all have the same billing group # but different general invoice numbers). I need to pull data if one of the general invoice # invoice dates is greater than or equal to a specific date entered.
In other words: If a Billing Group # and one of the Invoice Dates is greater than or equal to a specific date entered then pull ALL GROUP data to report.

I am in the process of changing over a text field to a memo field to generate more space (in 5 different databases :eek: ) Thanks to all the good info on several searches of this forum, I am pretty clear on how to do that.
The question is... when I convert a field that already has information in it, will I lose the current information?
TIA,
Darnys

when i change records, my subform that has a memo field, shows the memo field data is "highlighted". i can make a mistake and hit any keyboard key and the memo field data will get erased.
is there a way to prevent such a problem?
if not, is there a work around. eg, hide the memo field until needed for more input? ideas on both issues?

I have built a nice database that has a form to enter data which logs in product received, there is a combo box on the same form that is linked through the query builder to auto populate the names from the contacts info table (the receivers of the product received) the contacts info table also contains information that is specific to each name such as locations.
As of now I have created a command button that brings me to the form that shows the information fields I need specific to a name, once I get that I have another command button to bring me back to the main form. How to create an additional list box on the main data entry form so as when the name is entered the new list box or text box (which is best?) will auto populate the information I need on one form instead of going back and forth.
Example:
Requester Name [ auto populate name ] currently linked to contacts info table (working)
(New field) Preferred Location [ need to auto populate location ] from the contacts info table (how do you pull locations specific to a contact name from the same table?
