I've got a query that is defeating me, but that might be due to a week's worth of insomnia related sleep problems. My issue exists in the following query, of the four IIF statments in the HAVING portion of the query and the need to select all if the statement is false for each one of the four queries, the way it is now partly works by returning all results where none of the values are null, I need to get null results as well. I've tried not including the false action for them, a wildcard to select all and just can't get around this problem. Any help appreciated.

hi guys.. i want to include a search form in my database.. here is my current SQL statement:
SELECT tblCompany.CompanyIDPK, tblCompany.CompanyName, tblCompany.CompanyAddress, tblCompany.ContactPerson, tblCompany.ContactPosition, tblCompany.OfficeNo, tblCompany.MobileNo, tblCompany.FaxNo, tblCompany.EmailAdd FROM tblCompany WHERE (((tblCompany.CompanyName)=[Forms]![frmSearchClient]![txtSearchFor]));
but this statement only returns the exact name of the company... if the name of the company in the database is ABC company and you searched for "ABC", it will return zero results... so how can i improve on this? that even if they enter only "ABC", it will return a result.
I'm making a student report card. Teachers enter student data via a bound form. I have a text field that teachers enter their class which brings up student names. They fill oput the form accordingly.
I have 6 classes of grade 7. 7A, 7B, 7C and so on.
If a teacher enters something weird like (7 (space) A) the query bound to the form will return nill results because it's looking for something that doesn't exist. I need an error message to appear which says no records will be returned because you haven't entered the correct parameter value. (Because they have entered 7spaceA rather than just 7A.
I could just use a combo and this would solve all my problems. But it's not always practical. I was thinking I could use a wild card where if the first character was a number then at least some values would be returned. There is method to my madness... I actually want to apply the same code elsewhere when running reports.
Is there a way I can enforce some kind of input mask in an event proceedure that can do this??
I have data of type "number" shown in the drop-down combo-box in a form. It has some codes in the event of "After Update".
My problem is that i can't type in something like 13* in the combo-box in order to get anything starts from 13. It says "The value you entered isn't valid".
The reason is that i want user to be able to use the wildcard. I know that i can do this with text. I'm not allowed to change the structure of the table in the database.
This combo-box shows IDs from one of the exisiting tables. That IDs is of type "autonumber" in the table.
I am trying to get the OrderBy to recognize wildcards (or to that effect). A scenario would be I would have more than one name in a field, EX: Name2, 4, 6. How do I use wildcards in the OrderBy and they are recognized.
ORDER BY (Table.Field)="Name1", (Table.Field)="Name2", (Table.Field)="Name3", (Table.Field)="Name4", (Table.Field)="Name5", (Table.Field)="Name6", (Table.Field)="Name7", (Table.Field)="Name8";
Im trying to create a query that uses a combo box as the filter criteria. However the combo box needs to use wildcards, which i would have thought would have been *[forms]![control]![combo1]*. However this doesnt seem to work, anyone know what im missing?
I have a table called Coded_Data with one particular field called Codes. This field list a number and a respective code to identify what type of code it is. For instance 123456789-AD...123456789-ADS. I am wanting to create to two columns. One listing all work orders coded with AD and the other withADS. When I use the Like condition with % it returns both AD and ADS in same column. I understand why because the "%AD" returns anything that starts with AD so this is why I get both codes. I only want to get the the AD codes in one column and ADS in the other. I have duplicated the table twice since I am trying to retrieve data from the same field and table but display in 2 separate columns. The duplicated table has a different alias. The problem is in the where clause.
where (((coded_data.codes) LIKE "%AD")) or ((coded_data_1.codes) LIKE "%ADS");
I'd be grateful if someone could offer some help with this to a frustrated Access novice : )
I have a query that filters records according to the value of an unbound text box in my form (basically search on last name)
I want to introduce wildcards into the filtering process but cannot get it to work.
Here's what I've done:
In the criteria field I had [Forms]![MAIN]![Text440] refering to the unbound text box on the form already mentioned.
This worked fine, but the following: Like "*[Forms]![MAIN]![Text440]*" does not.
Nor does various combinations of brackets such as: Like "*([Forms]![MAIN]![Text440])*"
In fact it now doesn't return anything, even if given a positive match. I have trawled help and the forums but to no avail. I have also tried the % character instead of *
I have created a simple Unbound search form based on a 'Bookings' table. There are 4 comboboxes that the user can choose to search on, 'Client_ID', 'BookingType', 'FundingArea' and 'ChargeTo'. I have created a query that uses the following criteria;
Like "*" & [Forms].[frmLBT_db_Tool].[cmbName] & "*" Like "*" & [Forms].[frmLBT_db_Tool].[cmbBookingType] & "*" Like "*" & [Forms].[frmLBT_db_Tool].[cmbFundingArea] & "*" Like "*" & [Forms].[frmLBT_db_Tool].[cmbChargeTo] & "*"
Using this criteria any of the comboboxes can be left blank and the results will display the chosen combobox used, or if 2 comboboxes were used the results would be further filtered.
The problem I have is that if a name was chosen (cmbName - Client_ID) and the Client_ID was 2, then all Client_ID records which have a 2 in them are returned, 2, 12, 20-29,32,42,52 etc...
Is there a way to overcome this, or am I going about it all wrong?
Is it possible to update vlues in a table using wildcards. I want to use a query to search for certain records that meet a certain criteria and modify these values like changing particular dates in the date field to new values.
I have a table with a string field for a street. It might have data such as:
Bleeker Street or Bleeker St.
I want to create a query that will enable the user to search for a string by entering a parameter. Is there a way to construct a query using wildcards for a string so that if the user types in "Bleeker" both the above values will be returned?
Been trying to use wildcards in fields while Filter By Form instanced in Access 2007.
LIKE, BETWEEN, IN or */% not available?
The form is based on a query. I am guessing this is why the drop downs only show IS NULL or IS NOT NULL as choices instead of the entire unique list existing in the underlying table/query.
I should find the position of a number in a sentence and later extracted. The number is attached always to an "E". ie: E1, E2, E3,E4. The range of the number is 1-4. I have this until now:
I have a Excel spreadsheet with an embedded query that pulls from an Access table. The users use a spreadsheet with an embedded query to search on a field called "Circuit ID", to bring up results showing the history of a given circuit id. Currently they have to enter an exact match, for example if the circuit id value is DHECHUIOY, they need to enter this exact value DHECHUIOY. They want instead to be able to enter DHEC and a wildcard character to bring back every value that begins with DHEC. There doesn't seem to be a way to do this in a spreadsheet with an embedded query.
I finally decided that it would be easier to create a form in Access
How I can create a form which allows users to search on a value using wildcard characters ? (the user enters the wildcard character).
So I've got a form set up, and it uses a combo box to find the name of a persons record to populate the form. Simple enough stuff, the wizard takes you through it. It works fine.
However the people that use the database have kinda thrown me a curveball by asking if the search function can search any part of the name. For example, you've got a John Smith. If you enter Smith into the combo box, it won't find the record because it's the second name, you have to type in John.
Is there a way to use wildcards in the combobox so you can type in first or last names and get the same normal combo box effect?
Can anyone give me any guidance on how to use IFF statements in microsoft access? or Has anyone got a link to a good website that can help me? I need to use the formula below to determine if the quantity of an order from a store is greater than the quantity that is in stock at the warehouse and produce a message message.IIF([quantityordered])(=[quantityinstock]"enoughstock","notenoughstock") I just dont know where to start, i didnt even know you could enter formulas in Microsoft Access so i really need help
Hi, I have another problem with my Access database now...
I am trying to disable fields when a certain value is chosen. I can do it for one field with this code:
If ALLOCATION_LP = "Other" Then OTHER_ALLOCATION_LP.Enabled = True Else OTHER_ALLOCATION_LP.Enabled = False End If
That one works perfectly well, but I have another one that needs to disable two fields instead. If they choose "No Extant PP", I want it to disable two fields; one combo box - PLNG_PERMISSION_STATUS_2 (which I can get to and it works) and also an "Other" text box - OTHER_PLNG_PERMISSION_STATUS_2 (this is where i get stuck). I have tried two If statements, but whether I'm writing them wrong, I'm not sure.
'construct a where clause as required If Nz(Me.Manufacturer.Text, "") <> "" Then Where1 = "WHERE MFRcode LIKE '*" & Me.Manufacturer.Column(0) & "*' " End If
Me.list.RowSource = _ "SELECT ID, Description, Par, MaxCoins, PayLines " & _ "FROM MachineTypeQuery " & _ Where1, Where2 & _ <- how do i get something like this to work "ORDER BY Description;"
Exit Sub Where2 comes from another control and has to be filled in before they get to this control. also "where1" and "where2" are set as public stings
I want to check eight Yes/No fields. If none of the boxes are checked I want to display a msgbox. I can link seven of the fields (no problem), when I add the eighth it doesn't work.
Am I limited to seven fields in my statement? Is there a way around this?
Any help would be appreciated.
