I have a database which stores information relating to club members, which I'm in the middle of giving a bit of a facelift and one thing I want to automate is the calculation of the expiry date.
My memberships expire annually at the end of December and the expiry date is set as a default value within the table properties. This has to be manually changed every September (every new member from then pays for 15 months) to the following December.
Is there a formula I can insert in the defaul value field that will return December the current year if todays date is between January and August, and December next year if todays date is between September and December?
I have a number of tables with different metrics. However, they all have a "Date" field in common, broken out at the daily level. Since some of my tables have different start and end dates, I'd like missing values to simply appear as "N/A". How I would do this with SQL?
I've attached a screenshot of the layout I'm going for. Each metric field (i.e. "Metric1", etc.) would be pulled in from a different table.
I am very new to access and I am trying to figure out how to build an expression for one of my fields. I have a field called Order Date, which holds the date of when an order is filled. I then have another field called Fill By Date. This new field I want to be 2 weeks after the Order Date. Is there a way to auto fill this information so that when I enter a date into the Order Date, it will enter the date that is 2 weeks after into the Fill by Date?
I would like the "DateOfConfirmation" to populate with today's date when "SSurvDiagThisYear" is Confirmed.
The DateRecordCreated is a simple =Date() that populates when the record is entered into the table.
SSurvDiagThis Year is the case outcome - Pending, Probable, or Confirmed. It is possible that the case could be confirmed on the same day it was entered into the table but that is RARE.
I am hoping for the The DateOfConfirmation to capture the date the case is confirmed so that I can gather some duration between the case being opened to confirmed.
I have an access database that has 10 items that can be checked if a certain criterea is met. I need a way to generate an email that inserts a sentence relating to each checked box if that box is checked.
What I would like to do is to call up all the data in table1, and then call up (asset, debt, equity,...) from table2 where the company_code and year-month are equal. What do you think is the best way to do this? Keep in mind a few things:
1. I'm dealing with hundreds of thousands of data lines 2. I may need to get more data similar to table2 in the future and call it up in the same way
I thought I should create a primary key "company_code-year_month"for both tables, but that method doesn't seem like a good one, and if I were to have another table, will have to create the same primary key for that table as well?
I have a very simple question which is anoying me already for a very long time. I have two tables both with a key field, a common field and a table specic field. Like :
I have database A & database B, which is a copy of the first. I have made some changes to database B but need to merge one table back into the original database.
How do you merge two columns together, one is the date, and another is the time.
date column as this 9/21/13 time column as this 11:01:00 am
the reason why I want to merge it is because so I don't have to retype and I would have both the date and time in one filed. Date and time column are both Date/Time type.
I have mulitple dbs that are exactly the same in design that I need to combine into one db. The problem that I am having is that the primary keys are autonumbers and I get errors when trying to copy and paste the data into the tables. Is there an easy way to combine/merge all the tables? I have attached a sample for review. Password LOCK
I have several tables I have brought in from excel spreadsheets. Each one has one common column (lets call it serial number), but then all the rest have a variety of information (one has location info, one has network info, one has asset tracking info, one has sw load info, etc). What I want to do is a) collect all the records from each table into one, b) merge the records with common key field so I don't have multiple records for this one key field and can have just one record with the information from all the different tables in it, c) not lose any records that don't have a sister record in some other database.
Anyone have any idea the best way of attacking this problem is. Common joins cause problems because of records that are not in both tables get left behind. Union and append queries creae many multiple records with the same ser # but only the bits of info they brought in from their original spreadsheet, not the other info from the other speadsheets. I am an Access Newbie and trying to figure out if this is even possible without extensive coding.
Hi, I have 2 tables which have the same variables: 1st is called "stockholm" The other is "gothenburg" I tried to query them but the query does not add everything, there are always missing records.

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
The "data" table is imported from a large excel file (about 5000 rows and 40 columns) and needs to be updated about once a year. The idea is to use the "datamodifications" table to store all modifications and then merge "datamodifications" and "data" into "mergeddata", so when i have to update the "data" table next year i can just remerge it with my modifications. My problem is that i cant merge the two without getting dupliace entries. I have tried with this query but it gives me duplicate entries:
Code: SELECT col1, col2, col3 FROM data UNION SELECT col1, col2, col3 FROM datamodifications ORDER BY col1;
How can i remove the duplicate entries (or is there a better way than actually writing SQL to do what i want do to?
Here's a little problem that is driving me nuts. I know what is wrong and yet I can't fix it!
I have an Access D/B and a mail merge word doc which gets its data from a table in the database. Now the date is in the correct format in the table i.e. uk/european format. The 5 of january 2005 would be 05/01/2005.
However when this gets into the word doc it changes to USA format i.e. 01/05/2005.
I am trying to merge data from multiple rows into one row for each unique ID. I can replicate on how to do this on a table, maybe a query or something like that. Attached img shows
I am pretty new to the using of Microsoft Access. Part of my role at work is to mantain a register of contacts (Aprox 2000 records). When moving into my role there was already an Access Database in place that had been designed and created by another member of staff prior to leaving.
The database contains a wealth of information, however this is spread across MULTIPLE tables (23 to be exact)
I am trying to create a word document that is basically a mail merge in order for me to drag the contact information over to print. However all the information I require is not in one table. Word will only extract the data from one source.
I have an Employee Records table with 29k records that I originally imported from an HRIS system. Lets call this table ORIGINAL table.Each week I export a new Employee Records table from the HRIS system as it contains the latest updated information. IE - New hires, terminations, rate changes, etc. Lets call this table NEW table. It likely contains new records as well as we hire 100+ people per week.
In the ORIGINAL table, I have added fields that are not included in the NEW table. I need to update the records / fields in the ORIGINAL table with the NEW table, but need to keep the ADDED fields.Originally my plan was just to overwrite the ORIGINAL table with the NEW table until I added the additional fields to the ORIGINAL table. I thought that I could export the added fields in the ORIGINAL table, import the NEW table, and run and update query based on the EE ID#.
I have 4 tables that store information on guest charges (stayinfo/room rate, fuel charges, bar tab, merch charges) each linked to table carrying guest ID's. Is there a way to combine/merge all the tables into one in such a way that all of the guestID's are in one column, all of the charges are in another column etc? Basically adding one table to the bottom of another.
