Access :: Merging Data From Columns Into Rows

Merging Data Columns Into Rows

Jan 19, 2006

Hi everyone,

I can't get my head around this so I'm looking for some help if possible please, there are two questions, the first is:

When in the query, I want the criteria for the date selection to be a question, ie. "[Week Start Date?]" but I want the actual criteria selection to be from the start date plus 5 days, the only way I've done that so far is to do ">=[From?] and <=[To?]", which uses two questions and I don't seem to be able to do ">=[Week Start Date?] and <=[Week Start Date?]+5" which seems basically correct, but I expect I'm writing it incorrectly (basic access knowledge I'm afraid :( )

The second question (after I've got the 5 day date criteria sorted) is that the query produces a table that shows basically the following:

Name Store Date Visited
Tom Bury 18/01/06
Tom Bury 19/01/06
Tom Diss 20/01/06
Dick Thetford 18/01/06
Harry Diss 20/01/06

The query is based on a part week period with the starting date ALWAYS a Monday, so no more than Mon-Sat will appear, I want to put the information into a table or query, so the result ends up as:

Name Store Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri Sat
Tom Bury 18/01/06 19/01/06 'Blank' 'Blank' 'Blank' 'Blank'
Tom Diss 'Blank' 'Blank' 20/01/06 'Blank' 'Blank' 'Blank'
Dick Thetford 18/01/06 'Blank' 'Blank' 'Blank' 'Blank' 'Blank'
Harry Diss 'Blank' 'Blank' 20/01/06 'Blank' 'Blank' 'Blank'

*Where the blanks are simply left empty, rather than putting in the word 'blank'

Essentially converting the "[From?]" (as stated earlier) or "[Week Start Date?]" to Monday, that date + 1 to Tuesday, etc, BUT putting multiple dates relating to name and store criteria onto one record :eek:

Beyond me I'm afraid, any pointers would be seriously appreciated, I expect I'm approaching the problem from the wrong angle.

Regards
Tony

Take Data From Rows And Move Into Columns.

Mar 11, 2007

Hi, I have data from a form on my website in a text file, that corresponds to each visitor's input, each 13 lines in the form belongs to one visitor, as shown (twice) at the end of this message.

What I would like to do is have each visitors inputs translated to ONE row, with 13 columns/fields each. It could be appended to the same table or preferably generated in a new one. Note, there are no blank fields, some won't have data after their title, i.e. addy_line_2: is often blank, but at the very least, addy_line_2: or another field name is always there.

It would ROCK if I could also automatically take the name of each field out, i.e. each name is continuous characters up to the : (colon) ...

Thanks in advance, my Access knowledge is obviously limited, I'm sure this is fairly simple!

The fields:

Phone: 213-555-1212
Submit: Continue
addy_line_1: 1000 Melrose Place
addy_line_2:
badge:
city: Los Angeles
email:
homegroup:
name:
program:
state: CA
volunteer:
zip:
Phone:
Submit: Continue
addy_line_1:
addy_line_2:
badge:
city:
email:
homegroup:
name:
program:

thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you !!

Changing Data From Columns To Rows

Jun 30, 2006

Hi all,

I have a query which runs off a table. I have the following Fields as columns in query: WeekID, A, B, C, D, E

For each week, the letters correlate points given. So for week 1, "A" could have 1 point, "B" could have 3 points, etc.

I want to run a Query that will show A, B, C, D, E as rows like the following:

Letter_Week 1_____Week 2_____Week 3
A_______1_________5___________3___
B_______3_________4___________2___
C_______2_________1___________7___
D_______6_________3___________3___
D_______3_________1___________4___

I can't run a crosstab because it will only crosstab values within all of A, B, etc.

Any idea guys? Thanks in advance, as always.

Modules & VBA :: How To Manipulate Data Export In Rows To Become In Columns

Oct 14, 2013

The key field is the specimen number and specimen type. Currently for every antibiotic there is a row with its result. My output is 3 complete worksheets so a lot of data. I need to create a database with one row per specimen number/type to include whether it is S/R/or I for each type of antibiotic. The example probably makes more sense. but I'm assuming that 65000 rows * 3 sheet can then be reduced to around 18,000 rows.

Getting Data From Rows To Columns Based On Common Fields

Jul 30, 2013

I have a big Excel file with payroll information about employees. Per employee per date, there are a couple of rows with mostly identical data (such as the employee's home address) but 2 differences: one will have paycode A with amount B, another will have paycode C with amount D, etc. I want to simplify the file to have 1 row per employee per date: in the example given that row would have paycode A with amount B as well as paycode C with amount D, in 4 separate columns.

I think I can technically solve this by creating Excel files per pay code/amount, and then linking them together by person and date, 1 by 1, through Access. This is feasible because there aren't that many different pay codes. But still, I was wondering if there was anyway to solve my problem in Access itself.

Forms :: Inserting Data From Multi Rows Into Separate Columns

Oct 17, 2013

I have a database with a form that has 3 fields in a subform. I need to paste there data from multi rows. Now I have to do this column by column and paying attention that I select them correctly. Is there a way to directly insert the data by selecting only 1 field and have the data directly there as it would in excel?

Now we use excel as a "between" road to paste it there and then copy it from excel and paste it into access.

General :: Cross Tab Query To Display Data By Rows And Columns

Jul 10, 2013

I have a cross tab query that displays data by customer (rows) and MONTHS (columns).

However I need the columns to be the 12 months of the year 1 to 12.

However, if the selected data for a particular customer does not have any records in a month then I get an error in the report as the cross tab query only selects the months with data.

How do I get the report to show 0 or a blank in these columns

Combining 2 Query Columns Into 1 Column With Data In Separate Rows

Mar 29, 2012

I have a database with all the hours employees have logged stored in the database. Our payroll company wants an excel spreadsheet that has very specific info in particular columns and fields on the excel spreadsheet, so I'm trying to design a query which will put the correct info in the correct fields per their system.

The challenge is, I have currently a query with Employee ID, Overtime Hours, and Regular Hours as separate columns.

I need to translate this to a query with a single column for hours and a separate column that designates those hours as OT or Reg, with two rows for those employees who have both types.

Current:

ID / Regular Hours / OT Hours
101 / 70 / 7.5
102 / 30 / 0
103 / 5 / 0

Needed:

ID/ Hours / Type
101 / 70 / Reg
101 / 7.5 / OT
102 / 30 / Reg
103 / 5 / Reg

I don't know how to create a query or a formula in a query to break out each employee row into multiple rows with different data in the hours column. It seems like there's something pretty straightforward that I've done in a similar vein but it doesn't seem to work - I can do the opposite and combine those hours by using the SUM function in a query, but I can't seem to break it out this way.

Access 2007, Windows 7.

Modules & VBA :: Union All Query - Transposing Columns To Rows With Variable Columns?

Aug 8, 2013

I was able to use the UNION ALL qry. But, when I have another file (like original2) that does NOT have all the columns listed in the UNION ALL qry, I get a Parameter value box asking for the missing columns when I run the qry.

Example:

original1IDDateGroupChristianJohnnySteve 18/5/2013A1528/5/2013B338/5/2013C2348/5/2013D2358/5/2013E5

original 2IDDateGroupChristianJohnny18/6/2013A212528/6/2013B2338/6/2013C2248/6/2013D22

The UNION ALL qry includes all the possible resources ( includes all the possible column fields Christan, Johnny, and Steve).

When I run the UNION ALL qry with the original2 file, An "Enter Parameter Value" box is displayed with the mssing column name "Steve".

Is there a way to Map the original2 table into a working table with all the columns, or use VBA code to construct the UNION ALL qry to only include the existing columns? My data has variable columns and I'm trying to avoid the parameter popups.

Converting Rows To Columns And Columns To Rows

Jul 31, 2013

I am trying to convert a table that looks like the following...

Customer Name SumofSum of Bill Rate Reviewer
000462 John 500 Mike
000224 Mike 900 Jeff

I would like to covert it to....

Customer 000462 000224

Name John Bill
SumOfSum.. 500 900
Reviewer Mike Jeff

I don't think Access has any functions for this but I am not 100% sure. I know this can be done in a Module but I am not sure of how to code it.

Merging Redundant Columns

May 13, 2013

I'm doing up a database of hazardous chemicals, based on publicly available information from various agencies. Each chemical has a name and a number, and has different hazards associated to it. The hazards are grouped into classes, and for each class the hazard is further broken down into categories. Hence for an explosive hazard (the class) I could have categories 1, 2 and 3 based on severity. For each iteration of the hazard class and category (for example explosive hazard category 1), there is a non-unique hazard statement. Another complication is that there is a qualitative element in the classification system, and hence agencies from different countries could classify the same chemical differently. This should be captured into the database as well. Thus for every chemical, I will have to enter the Japanese classification, the EU classification, etc.

I've managed to set up what I think is a correct relationship, based on my understanding of databases. However when I generate the report, fields such as the chemical name and ID are repeated for each hazard. I would like to merge these redundant entries, so the chemical name, I.D., and any other repeated fields appear only once. In essence, I'm trying to make it such that there is only one entry for each chemical+I.D/country, with multiple hazard subentries, rather than having multiple, seemingly duplicate entries.

Totalling Columns & Rows Into Columns

Mar 22, 2007

I'm affraid my confusing topic title is an indicator of how confused I am by this. I can't even understand the variables well enough to fully utilize Access Help or the Search function here...

What I have is a database hat has column headers that look something like this:
Customer_Name, Order_Date, Qty_Ord, Unit_Price, Total_Price

What I'm trying to get is a query output that will have

Customer_Name, Total Orders (in Dollars) for January, Total Orders (in Dollars) for February, Total Orders (in Dollars) for March, etc.

I've been able to set it up to SUM for one month, but not multiples.

I know I'm totally lame (for proof read any of my previous posts) but you guys totally bailed me out the other time I asked a lame question.

Thanks in advance!

Converting Rows To Columns

Sep 20, 2006

I'm filling in for someone who has a strange love for mail merge and now I need to covert employee history from a row to a column for the mail merge.

I currently have a list of employees and every change in position is listed as a new row. Since all employees are not the same some employees have more rows than others. What I need to do is move the history rows into columns. So what I'll end up with is one single row per employees with their history going to the right. Some employees will have more columns than others. I tried doing a crosstab but that will only let me pick one column from the original table.

I have three columns that I need repeated over and over to reflect their work history.

this is what im working with
Name or ID will be the key
Job start date
Job title
department

currently every one of theese fields is in a column but every entry has its own row.

I need a single row for every employee and the columns to repeat to the right to reflect every move.

Can someone help me :D I'm stuck :confused:

I doesnt matter if the output is in something other than access

Convert Columns To Rows

Aug 28, 2006

Hello All,
I have created a table in access with the following column headings:

ID, A, B, C, D, E.

Column ID contains 9 digits text;
Column A column contains email address;
---------------------------------
Column B contains Currency ($); |
Column C contains Currency ($); | Source Fields
Column D contains Currency ($); |
---------------------------------
Column E contains order number;

Now I need to normalize this table to produce a new table with this structure - UNION QUERY is ruled b/c i have more than the three source fields:

ID, Source, and AMT

Where -

ID: would equal to ID;
Source: would be the value of the heading such as B or C or D;
AMT: would be the currency value of each corresponding column.

Help with the Module or any other way to do this will be greatly appericated.

Thank you.

Queries :: Rows To Columns

Mar 26, 2013

I have the following scenario and do not wish to use a crosstab for various reasons. I am combining three queries into one. The last query has information as follows:

Project Type Rev Budget
12345 Debt 100,000
23456 Impact 50,000
34567 Other 25,000

There are hundreds of these line items. The first two queries hold the project information as well and that would be the field that I would use to join each query. Currently the information above is in line form and I need to put it in column form to coincide with my other data. The final result needs to have the following column headings:

Project, Desc, Exp Budget, Expenses, Debt, Impact, Other, Rev Budget

Please note that the first four headings come from the first two queries so I have this taken care of. how do I change the query to put the Type by line item as a column heading and sum the Rev Budget accordingly without creating a table and doing appends or update queries? Can it be done in the query where I am combining the three queries?

Query To Total Columns AND Rows

Jun 2, 2005

Is it possible to total columns in a query? Right now, I have a query that produces the following column counts, but I'd like to total Pending, Overdue, etc. This data is being displayed in a subform.

Process Pending Overdue Total
-------------------------------------
Engineering 1 2 3
Procurement 0 6 6
<etc>
-------------------------------------
TOTAL 1 8 9 <- this is the line I want to add

Here's what the query (qryStatusRptB) looks like thus far:
Field: Process
Table: tblProcesses
Total: Group By

Field: Pending
Table: qryStatusRptA
Total: Sum

Field: Overdue
Table: queryStatusRptA
Total: Sum

Field: TotalRecords: Count(*)
Table:
Total: Expression

Can someone explain how to get the TOTAL ROW in here? (I can do it via another query, but that won't work since the data is displayed in a subform. I've tried crosstabs without success.)

Many thanks,
Christine
