Joining Tables With Similar Fields?
Sep 18, 2015
How would I go about joining tables with similar fields? I currently have three tables that show standings of teams (East, Central, and West). They all have the same fields:
East
Team Name
Wins
Losses
Ties
Points For
Points Against
Central
Team Name
Wins
Losses
Ties
Points For
Points Against
West
Team Name
Wins
Losses
Ties
Points For
Points Against
How would I combine them in a query so that all of the data from the tables are compiled into one table:
Overall Standings (East/Central/West)
Team Name
Wins
Losses
Ties
Points For
Points Against

Is there another field that can be used beside the lookup field in an Access table? I am currently using the lookup field as a multivalued lookup field and I am limited to the the things I can do with it when creating a report or a query on that field. Is there a similar field in Access 2010 that has the same look as a lookup field and allows for multiple values to be selected?

I have being playing with ms access but I really don't know much about it or databases in general.I have created a very simple database to gather twitter following/followers data for research purposes.One table (table01) has a field for the "boss" user (=the user who I gather data for), another field for "client" (=bosses followers or friends).Both fields are numeric and contain the users id's.In order to distinguish if the link is follower or friend there is a third field, called type which can be either 1 (=follower) or 2 (=friend).So the data would look like this:
boss - client - type
12345, 67890, 1
12345, 54321, 2
If user with user id 12345 had a follower (type 1) with user id 67890 and a friend with user id 54321...In order to avoid getting duplicate rows I also added a unique identifier which is of the form boss_id-user_id-type.So the above row looks like this:
12345-67890-1, 12345, 67890, 1
12345-54321-2, 12345, 54321, 2
That works just fine.For several reasons I also needed data of the form source - target.So I also made another table (table02) of this form.
67890, 12345
12345, 54321
...
In table 2 you don't need the "type" field since the position of the user id shows the type of relationship.Still, you need a unique identifier in order to avoid duplicates, so I added on with the form: source_id-client_id..So table02 lookes like this
67890-12345, 67890, 12345
12345-54321, 12345, 54321
...
Both tables also have a date/time stamp for each line.As you can see, table01, having also a type field is bigger than table02.The problem is when I try to append data, exactly the same data in both tables.Appending data to table01 is ok, while appending data to table02 (which is smaller, having one less field) takes a really long time, maybe 10 times as long as appending data to table01.To make sure that no query's are causing the problem I have tried first creating temporary tables with the data to be appended, no duplicates, nothing that would cause the database to make extra calculations and used a simple update query with no filters to append data.Still I get the same result, table02 takes a very long time to finish while table01 finishes in no time.

Hi Guys,
I have a problem which I cannot figure out.
I have a table which has an ID field and also a field with data. The ID field is 'not' unique.
I need to join all of the data fields which have the same ID field into one field. So it would be ID; Data 1, Data 2...
Any ideas? I would appreciate any help you could offer!

I'm trying to create a Purchase Order Database that requires a monthly summary of all the purchase orders in that month.
Examples of the fields i'm using are: Date, Vendor, Description, Item Number, Unit Price, Quantity, Sub-total, Total, etc.
Each table is a single purchase order, and there are around 3 or so every month. What I am trying to do is create a query in which all related fields are joined, and can be viewed as a single field.
For example:
Field 1 is DATE for Purchase Order (PO) 1, 2, and 3.
What I want to do is join all entries in DATE from PO1, PO2, and PO3 in a single query.
I want it to look like:
[DATE]
PO1......
PO2......
PO3......
I've tried several approaches to this problem, but they all have the same end result. It creates a seperate field for each table:
[PO1-DATE][PO2-DATE][PO3-DATE]
Any suggestions?

I have some experience doing 'Update Query' using two different tables but I'm having a hard time doing an 'Update Query' using 3 tables.
I have my source table TP05XY with the fields 'Mark' 'Date' 'UTM_Edig' and 'UTM_Ndig'. Mark and Date are my primary keys (they together uniquely ID each record). I have my Observations table with the fields 'Mark' 'Date' and 'Obs_ID'. The last table is Locations with 'Obs_ID' 'UTM_E' and 'UTM_N'.
I want to update my fields UTM_E and UTM_N from UTM_Edig and UTM_Ndig. However, to do so, I have to go from my TP05XY table, through Observations table to update Locations table. Table TP05XY is joined to Observations through 'Mark' and 'Date' and Observations table is linked to Locations through 'Obs_ID' field.
I have tried a few options without success ... anyone knows how to do it?
Thanks,
Josée

In a table, I want to join the texts in two fields to a new field by a backslash.

Hi
I have an Access database that contains 2 tables. Both of these tables have the same structure and have the same field names. So:
Table 1 Fields :
Name
Address
Telephone
Fax
Table 2 Fields :
Name
Address
Telephone
Fax
Is there a way to write a query, that will show the results of both tables in one go. (None of the information in table 1 is duplicated in table 2 - I want to show all records from both tables in one new table). So, if both tables had 3 records each, the query would return:
Name - Address - Telephone - Fax
jon-uk-12345-54321 (from Table 1)
julie-uk-21451-41541 (from Table 1)
paul-ir-98545-11241 (from Table 1)
pat-uk-99585-63362 (from Table 2)
phil-uk-99985-99631 (from Table 2)
ted-uk-44444-55555 (from Table 2)
These 2 tables need to be kept separate, so I can't copy and paste the records from Table 1 into the bottom of table 2.
The field names are the same in both tables.
Can this be done?
Many Thanks

I am building a simple task tracker to keep a record of tasks being passed back and forth between our team. The schema is fairly simple as illustrated in the image below.http://img2.freeimagehosting.net/uploads/f4f3a05c21.gifI want a recordset as follows out of this database (+/- few columns. But these are the most essential ones needed) -ixProject | Project.sTitle | ixTask | Task.sTitle | TaskHistory.dtEntry | sStatus | sEmployeeAssignor | sEmployeeAssigneeThis is basically a recordset of the history of the task (who assigned task to whom) and the status (assigned, resolved, closed). I can get the query to return the user id (ixEmployee) without any problems. But to display this in the interface I will need the employees name (sUsername).I tried the following query -SELECT Employee.sUsername AS sEmployeeAssignor, Employee.sUsername AS sEmployeeAssignee, Project.sTitle AS sProjectTitle, Task.sTitle, TaskHistory.dtEntry, TaskHistory.sDescription FROM(((Project INNER JOIN Task ON Project.ixProject = Task.ixProject) INNER JOIN (Employee INNER JOIN TaskHistory ON Employee.ixEmployee = TaskHistory.ixEmployeeAssignor)ON Task.ixTask = TaskHistory.ixTask)INNER JOIN Employee ON Employee.ixEmployee = TaskHistory.ixEmployeeAssignee <<< THIS IS THE PROBLEM LINE)WHERE (SELECT LAST(TaskHistory.ixEmployeeAssignee) FROM TaskHistory) = 1ORDER BY TaskHistory.ixTask, TaskHistory.ixTaskHistoryThis is the error I get -Join expression not supported.State:S1000,Native:-3530,Origin:[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver]Can someone explain how I can solve this problem? I am currently running two queries - one to retrieve the usernames, and the other to retrieve the history with the user id's - and replacing the user id's with usernames when displaying the records, but would like to have a cleaner solution.

Hello! I need to join 2 tables, 1 table with all of the fields, and another with just 2.
The link between the 2 tables is an ID field in field 2 wich is long integer.
The problem is, the ID field in table 1 that correlates to the ID field in table 2, is in the datatype text.
I cant change the datatype of the field in table 1 because it is a linked table to a txt file. And some of the values in there are dashes, indicating no ID. (not sure why).
So, is there ANY way to link the2 tables with the 2 different datatypes
Thanks in advance!

I have 5 tables which comes from different departments in our company.
All of them have the same key "project no" but hold different information in other colums.
As a starting point I have secured that they all have same no. of records meaning all "project no" are in all tables but some table might not contain other information in that record than the project no.
I have put them into a quirie and on a form I am able to look at all data from all 5 tables.
I have linked them one to one and it works fine untill I add a record to one of the tables. Afterwards I am not able to write into fields from other tables because there is no automatic creation of the record in the other tables.
Please How would this be best/easiest to make for me. ?
The reason why I have to keep the 5 tables is that regular updates are avaiable form any of them.
Appricate any comments which can make me any progress.

Hi there, I'm quite new to Access.I have two tables which have very similar Data, but laid out differently. The main similarities are things like FirstName, LastName, Company. What I need to be able to do is merge the two tables together into one super table. I've tried linking FirstName with FirstName and LastName with LastName on both tables, and running a query, so I can check for duplicate names. But all that brings up is a list like this:Steve Smith Steve AbrahamsSteve Smith Steve McDonaldSteve Smith Steve PerrySteve Smith Steve Vere(those columns would be Old FirstName, Old LastName, New FirstName, New LastName)There are fields in the old table that are not in the new, and vice versa. But the core fields are labeled the same. What's the best way to proceed here?Cheers,Hob

Hey everyone. I have this situation: I work for a veterinary company and I have a project which includes 4 tables.The first one has a list of all of our clients.The other 3 are : a table for the year 2004, one for 2005 and one for 2006. Not every client visits us every year and I need a query which will make certain action (different sorts of calculations) with the number of animals that we take care of.
To make it more clear:
During 2004 one client with ID 12345 visited us with 3 animals.
He didn't show up in 2005 but he came back in 2006 with 4 animals.
Trying to do so I joined the tables properly (in my opinion one-to many) and I only get the sum if a client has visited us for all the 3 years. If he appears in just two tables or one I don't get a result.
This is the problem. Has anyone got a clue?
Thanks in advance

Basically I want it to run like a flat data table which I cannot do because I have too many fields. I want ability to further expand it in the future.Somehow I need a one to one relationship with Referential Integrity enforced with cascade Update Related fields and Cascade Delete Related fields. Problem lies in it tries to create a one too many relationship.Both Main1ID and Main2ID are AutoNumber with Main One being primary key.
I have created a tabbed Navigation Form to show what is currently happening the first Tab is from Client Demographic Form generated by fields from Main Data Compiling Table and Second from Floral Information Form generated by fields from Secondary Table Delete From Main Data Table.

I have 3 tables, with the same field in each of the three tables. I need to find numbers (within those fields) that are similar in all 3 tables. If a number appears in all 3 tables, then all the data for that number need to be pulled from each table and placed in one row, all corresponding to that one number.
I can get this to work for 2 tables, using a query, but not three.
