I have a query that run from Two joined tables. All the selected data are correct. However, there is some fields that are blank. I'd like to have my query to run in a way that if it blank, it will replace with 0 (zero). Can someone help? is this possible..?
View RepliesI try to go throgh all columns and replace all blank fields with 0.Somehow this doesn't work:
Code:
Sub TEST()
Dim str As String
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim fld As DAO.Field
[code]...
I have this working query:
Code:
INSERT INTO TB_SISTEMAS ( LOGIN, SISTEMA, PERFIL, DATA )
SELECT Left([dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.LOGIN],255) AS LOGIN, dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.SISTEMA, Left([dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.PERFIL],255) AS PERFIL, dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.DATA
FROM dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS
WHERE (((dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.SISTEMA)<>"ACTIVE DIRECTORY") AND ((dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.DATA)="2014-03-23"));
But Iwant to be able to use a set of data to be used in the Replace Statement, so I create a table to add each string I would like to have replaced by "nothing", and trying to make the replace query to look there in order to find what to replace.I also created a table where I will list the systems that I dont want in the select, so I removed the "ACTIVE DIRECTORY" and replaced by the colum that have the list of system I dont want listed.This is the result:
Code:
INSERT INTO TB_SISTEMAS ( LOGIN, SISTEMA, PERFIL, DATA )
SELECT Replace((Left([dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.LOGIN],255)),[PREFIXOS_E_SUFIXOS]![Valor],"") AS LOGIN, dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.SISTEMA, Left([dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.PERFIL],255) AS PERFIL, dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.DATA
FROM dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS
WHERE (((dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.SISTEMA)<>[SISTEMAS_EXCLUIDOS]![Sistema]) AND ((dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.DATA)="2014-03-23"));
The thin is that this keeps asking me to enter the parameter value for "PREFIXOS_E_SUFIXOS!Valor" and for "SISTEMAS_EXCLUIDOS!Sistema"
Hi everyone,
I have a a table called [Email Database] with many fields
I need to create a query that replaces all Null values with blanks or ""
I'm not that familiar with SQL so any help would be appreciated!
OK, I have been searching around on the fourm for over an hour now...I give up. If this is some where else, I am sorry.
I have a database of maintenance data. There are several columns that are usually filled in, some records have some columns blank. They are formated text because they hold letters and numbers (see pic).
I am using a form to query the table...no problem. The form has text boxes the user filter down the data
The problem comes are with the results of the query. Any record that has a blank column is not retuned. I am using "Like" so that the user can enter in partial codes. I know "like" won't return "null" records.... Help!
Things I have tried:
1)IIF(form field is blank, return table field, else use like command to filter) - returns nothing!
2)Like "*" & [Forms]![Fleetwide_data_Request]![MAL_CD] & "*" returns all records without blanks (i.e. missing data)
what else can I do?
Thanks
Hi Guys,
Need a little bit of help, I have a report I pull out of an inhouse system with sales, shortages etc. I want to use a query to alter the formatting slightly and append it in to a different table. Most of this i can do fine, except for one thing.
Two of the sales fields in my report I'm uploading come out in the following text format:
19.0PC
27.0PC
45.0PC
etc...
I need to change this before appending as its going in to a number field, all i need to do is lose the PC, e.g.
19.0
27.0
45.0
etc...
I can do this manually, it's a simple find and replace in excel before uploading, gowever I want to automate this as much as possible. Looking around I'm pretty sure it can be done in a query using the REPLACE function but I'm unsure on the formats to use.
The only other thing is once its converted even though it will visually be a numbe (e.g. 45.0) it will still technically be a text field, will this prove a problem on the appending?
Many Thanks
Paul
Hi, i have a table of data, with a user name, and a task.
Each user is assigned many tasks, i and i would like to create a query that replaces all instances of a certain name with another name. How would i do that?
Thanks

Can the replace function be used in a query?
I have used this
=Replace(Format([SITELATSEC],"00.0"),".",",") in a report and it works fine.
I have the following expression in a query that is output to a report.
LAT: "Latitude: " & [SITELATDEG] & "º " & [SITELATMIN] & "' " & [SITELATSEC] & """ "
I need to be able to display [SITELATSEC] with a comma instead of a decimal point. I tried
LAT: "Latitude: " & [SITELATDEG] & "º " & [SITELATMIN] & "' " & =Replace(Format([SITELATSEC]00.0"),".",",") & """ "
and got an error message about too many commas.
On a more general note: Has anyone ever actually finished a database - ie got to the point where no changes needed to be made? 18 months after this started, and I'm still tryng to accomodate what my manager wants!
Is there a way to edit/replace tables in a query after you've copied the query? Basically, I have created a query and would like to copy the quesry. However, I would like to easily change some of the tables within the query. Is there a way to edit/replace the tables?
Thanks
Hello.
I have a simple crosstab query, which is designed to give a monthly total (numeric) and a yearly total for the value of orders placed by a number of customers.
The query is based on another query which simply extracts order records for a particular year.
For some customers, certain months will be blank as there were no orders placed.
I would like to use the crosstab query on a report, and I would like to replace the blanks with zeros.
I have searched for examples of query expressions using the nz function and attempted to apply some. I have, however, had no success in converting the blank monthly totals to zeros.
Can anyone help me achieve this?
The query is as follows :
TRANSFORM Sum(AmountQueryLastYear.SumOfAmount) AS SumOfSumOfAmount
SELECT AmountQueryLastYear.DeliveryName, Sum(AmountQueryLastYear.SumOfAmount) AS [Total Of SumOfAmount]
FROM AmountQueryLastYear
GROUP BY AmountQueryLastYear.DeliveryName
PIVOT Format([ShipmentDate],"mmm") In ("Jan","Feb","Mar","Apr","May","Jun","Jul","Aug","Sep","Oct","Nov","Dec");
An example of expressions I have tried is :
Expr1: NZ([SumOfAmount],0)
In it's own column in the query design grid.
ne1 help me with a find and replace query or macro. What I'm trying to do is shorten the path to external PDF files after I inport them into field TxtPDFPath.
Example; after inport of files path reads
c:w2kdatapdffiles2005somepdf.pdf
c:w2kdatapdffiles2005januarysomeother.pdf
c:w2kdatapdffiles2006another.pdf
I would like to shorten all imported paths to
pdffileswhatever
Example;
pdffiles2005somepdf.pdf
pdffiles2005januarysomeother.pdf
pdffiles2006another.pdf
and so on
I would like to replace missing TRP information from Query LF with average TRP information coming from Query LF_Average.

How do you use a query for the find and replace function???
View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm having problems with an assignment in an online course I am taking.
The assignment is to create one Update Query to find & remove typos in a field. Specifically, the typos are multiple f's & g's embedded in a field.
I created an Update Query that finds the typos & removes just the f's. I'm having trouble with the syntax to also remove the g's.
This is what I have so far that works great.
Update: Replace([Field2],"fff","")
Criteria: Like “*fff*”
or: Like “*ggg*”
The Query finds the records that contain both the "fff" & the "ggg" typos but I'm having trouble with Syntax for removing both.
Does anyone know what I have to change in the "Update:" line to include removing the g's?
I know I could easily create 2 Querys to remove the f's then the g's but the assignment requires only 1 Query to remove both.
Thanks,

I am running a query for an apparel manufacturing facility. In my query I have a table called 'OrderForm' which is where the orders are put in. There are more than one type of fabric that can be a part of an apparel item, so as a result, there are multiple fields pulling from the 'FabricType' table. In order to get this to work in my query I created 'SubTables' for the different fabric fields. For example, I have tblFrontfab, tblbackfab, tblsleevefab, and tblcollarfab which are just extra copies of the 'FabricType' table. The actual question is that when I want to replace characters like ,./& in the fabric field but I can't use the replace function. It says that it is too complex to calculate.
I used this notation
Frontfab: Replace([tblFrontfab].[fabric],".","")
and the error was that it is to complex to evaluate.
We have a field of 7m records of varying length, some of which are numbers, some just letters, some alphanumeric, and most which include a dash, space or some sort of punctuation mark.
We need to replace all letters with "L", then replace all digits with "@".
We can replace characters individually using this update query:
Replace([Ref Digit Or Letter],"A","L")
But would like to use wildcard searches to resolve this, something like (these don't work!)...
Replace([Ref Digit Or Letter],"A-Z","L")
Replace([Ref Digit Or Letter],"LIKE [*A-Z*]","L")
I've made a simple form to Login/Logout with radio buttons but the buttons only allow me to push a number as a value, in my case 1 or 2 for Login or Logout.
How would I make an update query to change those numbers to the equivalent text? Or is that not possible in the same field because that is 2 different data types?
Is it possible for an update query to simply replace all the data in a table's field with the results from a query?
For example, I have Table A with the field Years. This table performs various calculations within based on the field Years.
I would like an update query that simply replaces the Years field data in Table A with a new set of years based on a query's search criteria.
When I run the below query, I get an error saying the query must be updateable- but Im not trying to update the query, rather the Table

I have a Table1 served by Form1..It is a list of: UnqID, process, quantity, totaltime(in seconds).I want to click on a record to bring up a filtered Form2 with the chosen record on it.What I want to be able to do is to now split the quantity (and the time) and put these new records back into Table1 and delete the original record
EG
ID1,10,write a report,2400
I want to delete this and replace it with two (or three/four etc) replacements, but still adding up to 10 quantity and 2400 seconds so that the new data could be:
ID2,5,write a report,1200
ID3,5,write a report,1200
My initial thoughts are to create a holding table to:Append filtered data on Form2 to a holding Table1hld (i don't know how to do this) delete data in Table1.then enter the new quantities into a holding Table2 (that I will input myself) and then append (through a series of queries back into Table1).The first problem is how to append (and subsequently delete) the filtered record from Form2 to Table1hld.
I have a couple different reference files that get updated each week. Sometimes there are missing data elements, so I'd like to structure a select query to show me those records that have blank elements but I'd like the similar records to be pulled in as well, so I can make a determination as to how to populate the blank records..
See attached example: I have a client ID reference table that gets populated with forecast owner names (individuals responsible for the customer) from a couple of different sources. Sometimes there are names attached and sometimes the field is blank.
How can I structure a query to show me just those Client ID's that have multiple entries with blank AND non-blank forecast owners? I'd also like to exclude single/multiple records where there are only blank records...
:confused:
I am trying to help someone with a complex problem (so it seems to me) but I will first ask about what should be a simple thing....
First goal: to COUNT the number of times a TYPE of visit is made.
There are several different TYPEs but only interested in tracking 2 of them.
When a crosstab query is created - if one of the 2 parameters are not "met", a blank is returned. I have been reading posts about using NZ and IIf IsNull, etc to get past that - but none of them make any sense to me and the Access help suggestions do not work. Hope someone can make it clear with this information: (can't give more specifics to keep privacy intact)
The SQL was written by Access not by me. :)
Here is an example of the Crosstab SQL (which is using a previous query):
TRANSFORM Count([qryTest2.TYPE]) AS CountOfTYPE
SELECT qryTest2.CID
FROM qryTest2
GROUP BY qryTest2.CID
PIVOT qryTest2.TYPE;
-----------
qryTest2 SQL: (Grouping by to remove dups)
SELECT DISTINCTROW tblM.CID, tblM.[M#], tblM.LNAME, tblM.FNAME, tblM.YMDBIRTH, tblC.ClDOS, tblC.TYPE
FROM tblM LEFT JOIN tblC ON tblM.[M#] = tblC.[M#]
GROUP BY tblM.CID, tblM.[M#], tblM.LNAME, tblM.FNAME, tblM.YMDBIRTH, tblC.ClDOS, tblC.TYPE
HAVING (((tblC.TYPE)="Out" Or (tblC.TYPE)="In"))
ORDER BY tblM.CID, tblM.LNAME, tblM.FNAME;
Thanks for you time! :)
I have a query with three sub queries, all returning a number from different tables. But when any one of the sub queries returns a blank, the entire main query is blank.
How do I stop this from happening? I have tried NZ() on the sub queries and on the main query, but the blank still happens.
Hi,
this is a quickie with regards to query. When I execute a query I get my result back along with a blank record.
How is this prevented ?
my user has a mouse wheel which takes them to the blank record if they move it.
Thanx in advanz.

Hello, I have a table (Projects) with original projects and amended projects. All information regarding each project is inputted in the fields for original projects. Only limited fields are inputted in amended projects;new loan amounts or a new closing date may arise infrequently for amended projects. When there is a new closing date for an amended project, and it becomes part of a query all other fields are blank for that record, How do I populate the original project data into the blank fields of an amended project. I frequently have to create queries based on the fiscal year of closingdate field and I need to know the commitmentdate (field) and other dates that are in the original projects records. I hope this is not confusing thanks in advance. :confused:

I am running a query that is used to show a count of certain values. For example: The number of different Allegations.
The values would be grouped and counted:
Damage Claim 3
DUI 2
and so on. This works as it should in the query, but I noticed that the query has a blank in the first row.
Is this due to some records not having any values in the Allegation field?
This is what is looks like:
(Blank) 0
Damage Claim 3
DUI 2
