I have a sequencial number in my data base. It counts 1,2,3 all the way to 302344. I want to find missing records. How would I come up with the missing records in a separte database. In other words if I had 1,2,4,5,8,9. I would want to have a database that would show me 3,6,7 since they are missing.
Bob
I think this would be done though a query but i am not sure, any help or examples would be useful on this on.
Question:
Is there a way of getting access to find missing numbers. for example if some one enters 0 - 5 then access will pull the following numbers 1,2,3 & 4.
I am not sure if this is possible so any help would be good.

P.S. HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL.
Hello, I have no idea what to search for to see if someone else has already asked this question. I've tried several things with no luck. So here goes...
I work in a library. We deal with thousands of journal subscriptions--we cancel our subscriptions and order new journals all of the time. Every paper journal we have is assigned a unique number, called a ZP number. When we throw out a journal, that ZP number can be assigned to a new journal.
I would like to find the earliest missing number in the sequence without having to check manually. Is there a way I can do a query or something to find missing numbers in the sequence? The ZP numbers start with 1 and go up to 9999.
So, I have two fields: Title and ZP#.
How can I do this?
This is a cloned table, used solely for assigning ZP#'s, so it can be altered in any way--including adding records with blank titles for each missing number.
Thanks,
Siena
Hi
I've searched the forum and only found one thread which covers this but doesn't help me.
I have a table with peoples individual information in it.
Every person has a unique ID number.
I want to find the missing ID numbers when I delete a person so I can keep the numbers in sequence.
I am not using autonumber. The reason for this is coloured wristbands. Each wristband has a unique number and they are broken into 4 colours. each colour has a number range 1 - 300, 301 - 600, 601 - 900, 901 - 1200. Each person in the table has to have an ID number matching a wristband. The people are also broken into 4 colour categories. This means that not every range is filled before i need to start using the next range.
Hope that makes sense.

I have a list of what should be sequentaia numbers, but I am finding instances were a number seems to be missing..Is there a way to query the whole dataset and find all missing instances without having to trawl he list?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI need to write a query to find and match all numbers recorded against a list of numbers (1 - 200) and to identify those missing or not matching.

I am trying to create a query to find missing sequential numbers in a text field. I am using this specific field as a case number which is designated as two letters, the # sign, two digits indicating the year, a dash, and then a four digit number; For Example: AB#13-1234.
The reason for this query is to tell the user of this database that a specific case number has yet to be entered and needs to be. The case numbers are unique and will never be referenced more than once.
My table name is "MainDataTbl" and the field i'm trying to find the missing case numbers is titled "CaseNumber".
Hi all
This is an ongoing problem I have had for 4 weeks now.
I have made a a system thats acts like a clock In/clock out Out system.
the structure is somthing like this
ID
Username
tblDailyLog
TimeIn
MorningBreakOut
MorningBreakOut
LunchOut
LunchIn
AfternoonOut
AfternoonIn
TimeOut
All fields apart from ID (autonumber) and username (String*255) are Date field (there are a few others like DateOfTimesheet etc but they arnt important here)
When a user arrives in the morning they make a record which they use for the day
They then have a form with a whole bunch of buttons which simply updates the correct field. For example they click the "Sign in for the Day" button and it updates the correct field with the current time.
Everything was going fine until people noticed that every now and again a sign in time dissapeared.
I have hacked myself to death trying to solve this problem but still the updates go Astray.
Now each time a time is updated the process goes somthing like this
1. the user opens their timesheet for the day (the RS is SNAPSHOT and no locks)
2. User Hits a sign in/out button
3. The record source is changed to "" and all buttons hidden (to ensure the record isnt locked and to make sure you dont do two things at once)
3. The table is updated with the new time (using some dynamic SQL)
4. The table is repeatadly checked using a DO loop to make sure the the correct time went in.
5. when the returned time value of the field matches the varaible used to update it, the form is returned to normal and the user carries on his/her merry way (if it never matches the screen should crash but this never happens).
6. A New record is added to another table called "tblbugfixinglog" which records which field was updated and when. This is so that I have two records in two different ways (figured if one went astray I could pull it back off the other)
7. Another new record is added to yet another table called tblSQLRecord, which simply logs all .RUNSQL statements that are executed.
I thought that the two extra tables (and the check that the record had been updated) would help me track down where the records are going missing, but this isnt the case.
Now it appears that some records arnt being added to tblBugFixingLog and to tblSQLRecord either and some of these tables are getting quite a few #ERROR's in them..
None of the tables are related to any other and i've no idea how #ERROR lines are appearing in a table that has 1 function... to recieve new records ... no editing, no viewing, no deleting.
Does anyone have any idea how these updates/inserts can go missing or create #ERRORs.
I've built plenty of Databases in my time and have never come across this.

I have no idea how this can create #ERROR lines in the table when it is just added to and nothing else.
Does anyone have any clue to what may be happening here.
(Oh yeah and no matter how hard I try, I can't replicate the problem.... works for me every time no matter how harse I am to it!)
Please save what little hair I have left and give me some hope

I'm having multiple problems with my database like things such as -
i'm currently working on the Query 2 - On the Phone database (ignore Query 1) and i want to search for multiple plot numbers preferably in one parameter prompt with a comma to seperate numbers. (this could be a multitude of numbers so i would like to be able to input as many as needed). Also when i do search on this query since the Criteria is a 'Between' Value i would expect everything between the 2 numbers input to show up - but a lot of numbers out of the range show up too - why is this? (The Numbers are like "69 to 136" and they will show up - but 1-69 and 136-170 would too
I would also like to implement the search results from Query 2 into the Form i currently have made but it just opens up a access table when the search is made?
i cannot link my database as it is too big for the server - But here are the Criteria for Query 2:
Plot No - (criteria = Between [Enter First Plot No:] And [Enter Last Plot No:])
Site - (criteria = Like "*" & [Enter Site:] & "*")
Product - (criteria = Like "*" & [Enter Product:] & "*"
The Query is the one im most concerned about , i can live without a form.
Ok so in excel I have some numbers that are stored as text. The reason being that they are zip codes and some begin with 0 and excel doesn't want numbers to start with 0....so when I import these into an access field that has an input mask for zip codes...will it convert these correctly since the field is a text with input mask?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have 2 fields that I would like to automate if possible
One field is called "p/o number" and another field called "line no"
These fields are part of an ordering database
Let say I have 200 items to purchase form 10 suppliers

What I do at present is put the order number on each line item and the line number

p/o number line no
1 1
1 2
1 3
2 1

I have a table with fields like this one but the weeks go all the way up to 52. What I am trying to do is count the number of consecutive zeros and if it is more than five, count how many of the following fields have a number in them and if that number is less than the number of zeros preceding it identify that person.
For example Joe would be identified below because he had 6 consecutive zeros and then he had 5 weeks of numbers immediately following the string of zeros. Bob would not be identified because he had 5 consecutive zeros and then 5 sets of numbers immediately following the string of zeros so the zero frequency isnt higher than the number frequency immediately following.

[code]...
When I run this Query without the WHERE statement/Clause- it returns the accurate 985 records. However, when I include the criteria with the WHERE clause (it takes a range of +/- 10% of the Square Footage size into consideration), I lose 15 records, and only get 970 results. When I increase the range to +/- 15% in that field, it gives me 7 more records back.
Obviously it is dropping out records that do not meet the criteria for that field- how do I prevent that? I guess I would like it to display a ZERO or something, but still display the entire 985 records. What do I need to include to do that? Here's the SQL-
SELECT tbAct.MLS, tbAct.Status, tbAct.Address, tbAct.City, tbAct.Area, tbAct.SqFt, tbAct.Level, Avg(tbSold.SoldPrice) AS AvgOfSoldPrice, Count(tbSold.SoldPrice) AS CountOfSoldPrice
FROM tbListing AS tbAct, tbListing AS tbSold
WHERE (((tbSold.SqFt) Between ([tbAct].[SqFt]+([tbAct].[SqFt]/100*10)) And ([tbAct].[SqFt]-([tbAct].[SqFt]/100*10))))
GROUP BY tbAct.MLS, tbAct.Status, tbAct.Address, tbAct.City, tbAct.Area, tbAct.SqFt, tbAct.Level, tbSold.Status, tbSold.Area, tbSold.Level
HAVING (((tbAct.Status)="ACT") AND ((tbAct.City)="TEMPE") AND ((tbSold.Status)="CLOSD") AND ((tbSold.Area)=[tbAct].[Area]) AND ((tbSold.Level)=[tbAct].[Level]));
I hope someone can help me with this. I figure I'm missing one line of code but can't figure it out. I have 3 tables - tblGeneral (which is my main table), tblMDLink, and tblMD. The primary key in tbl General is FileNo. The primary key in tblMDLink is an autonumber and the primary key in tblMD is also an autonumber called MDID. tblMDLink is just a linking table containing the fields Fileno and MDID and uses an autonumber as its primary key. It contains some other fields that have nothing to do with this. I have a query called qryMDLink which contains all the fields of tblMDLink together with a calculated field calle full name which just combines the last name and first name fields of tblMD. Now I come to my form (which is actually a subfrom) called subfrmIMEDoctor. The purpose of the fomr is to allow users to add the names of various doctors to various files. The record source of the form is qryMDLink. The form also contains a FileNo field which is added programatically. The field has a drop down combo box with its record souce set to MDID. The drop down box has two columns with the first (not visible to the user) set to MDID and the second set to Full Name. Here's the problem - it won't let me enter data. Whenver I click on the box I get the message - "You cannot add or change a record because a related record is required in table tblIMEDoctor". By the way, I did set up one to many relationships beteen tblGeneral & tblIMELink and between tblIMEDoctor and tblIMELink. Any help would be greatly appresciated. Thanks,

I have a relatively large database 65M, 42K records.
For some reason I seemed to have lost most (not all) of the queries I have written. However, if I go to file>database properties>contents, I can see all my queries there.
I certainly did not delete them. Any I idea of what’s going on ? I'm, using Acess 2000 on win2K. Might this be a resources / memory related issue?

when designing reports or forms, when I pressing the

resetting the toolbox (through view/toolbars) and I set all of the

Access several times but no luck.
Any help please.
Gunawan.
Recently I lost the the functionality of the toolbox then shortly after I lost the toolbox icon completely.
The only way to use the features was to create an new toolbar.
System Restore finally fixed the problem.
This has happened twice on me with the 200 and 2003 versions.
Is it me? and is there an easier way to sort this. Reinstalling Access never cured the problem either.

Houston, I need some answers.
I don’t have one of those MSysObjects. Now how do I get one and how do I populate it?
I have a database that has just been split. In the back end, I don't see the tables. I have gone to Tools>Options>View and found that Show Hidden Objects is checked. When I go to the front end, the links to the tables show up and I can open them and see the data. When I check the Linked Table Manager, I see that the path for the links is leading to the back end database.
I also noticed that on the bottom of the screen, the buttons for the front end show the name of the front end database and have blue page-like icons, but the button for the back end has only the pink key icon. Also, when I try to link another mdb to these tables, the window for selecting the table for linking is empty. I also notice that suddenly, any time I close an Access database, it goes through a compact and repair cycle. This just started happening today. I'm fairly sure that yesterday I could see the tables in the back end.
Oh, yes. Just remembered one other thing. Not everyone here has that location on the network mapped to the same drive. In order to accomodate everyone, the linked table manager was set up with the complete path to the folder:
\companyname.comfolderlevel1folderlevel2folder level3...ackend.mdb instead of
J:.....
Using Windows XP and Office 2003
There is no verticle scroll bar as was mentioned in another post I found when doing a search on "Hidden Objects".
Any ideas where I should try next?

I have a weird situation and I was wondering if anyone has had an issue with this. I have a record missing from a table. Normal Users are not allowed to delete records from the Form view. There is a blank record where the record should be. The auto number counts from 37, 38, 40. Record 39 is missing and there are blanks where it should be. The autonumber field is my Primary Key and it is blank just like the rest of the fields in the record. I know that the record existed at one time because one of the DB users has a report referencing that record. Any Ideas?
Thanks for the help,
