I use following function to concatenate data from multiple rows into a single row/field. It puts a comma ',' after each concatenate. What I would like it to do more is to put 'and' instead of comma between the last two concatenated words. For example: Now it gives me Value 1 but I want to get Value 2.
Value 1: FormRegNo CombinedParticipants DC-190 Political parties, CSOs, community residents
Value 2: FormRegNo CombinedParticipants DC-190 Political parties, CSOs and community residents
Function: Option Compare Database Option Explicit Public Function ConcatField(strSQL As String) As String Dim dbs As Database Dim rst As DAO.Recordset Dim strConcat As String
I am trying to concatenate multiple rows into one record. I googled it and found many functions in VBA that do the job. However my problem is that my query will be linked directly to Excel file and then I get an error message saying that Excel could not recognise this function. I could potentially insert data into new table and link that table to Excel but I need to avoid end-user exposure to Access as much as possible.
So I am desperately trying to find a way of doing this without VBA code.
Example of data:
Customer Name |Order Number Smith |O101 Brown |O102 Smith |O103 Green |O104 Brown |O105
I am trying to achieve below:
Customer Name |Order Number Smith |O101, O103 Brown |O102, O105 Green |O104
tblSFDC (contact information) includes CustID (primary key) and a memo field "Notes"
tblTheCall (call information) includes CustID (relates to tblSFDC) and "activity data fields" ie "Live", Left Message" , Sent email".
tblTheCall may in some cases have multiple records for each CustID
I need to : Concatenate from tblTheCall Field Names and field values (that are not null) Insert into tblSFDC.Notes Where tblTheCall.CustID = tblSFDC.CustID
A third-party application I use exports data with 3 header rows. I usually have to go into Excel and concatenate the rows into a single header row, then export the file to Access to apply queries. I want to minimize the steps in this process, so I'm wondering if it's possible to do this concatenation in Access (with or without VBA).
I am trying to find a way to combine multiple rows into one (field). I have 2 tables. One table is data the other table is notes. The notes table has a new record created for each new note. Both tables have the Account Number and and Sub Account Number. I am linking the two tables on these account numbers with a left join normally. There can be records in the data table and no records in the notes table. I guess what I want is a query or sql statement i can use in vba that will display all the data from the data table and all the notes from the notes table in on field.
This data is used in a large report. Right now I have the data table set to the report by itself and code on the report to pull the notes from the notes table using a ADO recordset with a do while that just adds each note to a single variable. This works fine and does the job. The only problem is the time it takes to run the report now. If the report has 1000 records with notes on 90% of them and each of those has multiple notes that recordset code has to run thu ALOT. I use to have all the notes just compile to one field in the data table and the report ran very fast that way. I had to change this since I need it this way as to filter notes by time and archive them after a period.
I have read thru so many posts and see lots of code functions to do this but its just the same thing I already have with the recordset code building the combined field. Any other way to do what I am trying? I think I have just been over thinking this stuff at this point an maybe a fresh set of eyes will help. Below are some simple table layouts for the 2.
**Account Number and Sub ID fields in both tables are not unquie.
Data Table: (this table has alot more data but this gives you the idea.) Account_NUM - Sub_ID - Data1 1234 | 3 | 123 N Inc. 1234 | 3 | 666 DRN 4567 | 4 | 543 S Way. 7890 | 5 | zzz ABC
Notes Table: (Yes the notes field is a MEMO field) Account_Num - Sub_ID - Notes 1234 | 3 | notes1 1234 | 3 | notes2 1234 | 3 | notes3
The output I am trying to Get: Account_Num - Sub_ID - Data1 - Notes 1234 | 3 | 123 N Inc. | notes1 notes2 notes3 1234 | 3 | 666 DRN | notes1 notes2 notes3 4567 | 4 | 543 S Way. | NULL 7890 | 5 | zzz ABC | NULL
So I want a way to update Status of my rows according to numbers list. For example I want to update Status column for multiple numbers to become Done .
Simply I want to update "Null status" to become "Done" according to its numbers according to this list
Code: 1234 53 546 767 2135 6657 43 34
Something like this
I tried "update query" but I don't know how to use criteria to solve this problem. In Excel I did that by "conditional formatting duplicates" -with my number list which I wanted to update - Then "sort by highlighted color" then "fill copy" the status with the value...
I am trying to figure out the best was to combine fields from multiple rows into one row & field.
Example: I have a table that contains footnotes and products. With a simple query I would get the following 3 rows:
Product........................................... .......Footnote V.I. Capital Appreciation Fund.................3 V.I. Capital Appreciation Fund.................5 V.I. Capital Appreciation Fund.................1
What I want is one row and the 3 footnotes combines into one field:
Product........................................... .......Footnote V.I. Capital Appreciation Fund.................3, 5 ,1
Orders ====== OrderID = AutoNumber OrderDate = Date/Time OrderInfo = Memo CustomerName = Text CustomerAddress = Text PaymentDetails = Text
OrderProductDetails ========= OrderNumber = Number (Linked to OrderID) ProductNumber = Number (Linked to ProductID) Notes = Memo (Notes on product customization)
The OrderProductDetails table is in many to one relationships with both Orders and Products table. If I place an order with 3 products, the OrderProductDetails datasheet would be:
On my report, instead of 3 entries for this order, I would like show just one entry under a column "Products Ordered" ---> Product 1, Product 2, Product 3.
I tried the Concatenate macros I found online, however, I am unable to configure them properly to use for this purpose.
In the attached Database (Access 2007), there are 2 tables - "Source" and "Expected_Output"
1: Table "Source" contains values CONCATENATED in a single row with concatenation string ' OR name = ' With limited knowledge in Access, i tried to perform text-column trying to see if some delimiter could be removed, it messed-up the expected output.
In the attached DB, table "Expected_Output" contains the required output.
2. DB should have the ability to: the values that we obtained in the "Expected_Output" should be converted from multiple rows to single row with concatenations as in the "Source" table Once again i tried using the ' OR name = ' in the query for concatenation and failed again.
I have a rates table with 3 fields : [RateDate], [CurrencyID], [FXRate]
I also have a currencies table with 2 fields : [CurrencyID], [CurrencyCode]
Where [CurrencyCode] is just the 3-character currency code (i.e. EUR, GBP, USD etc.)
The rates table uses a composite primary key across [RateDate] and [CurrencyID] - i.e., there should only be one unique record for each combination of date and currency.
Not every date will be present in the table and, within each of those dates, not every currency will be present (but at least one, obviously)
I want to write a query which will return two fields. The first field will contain all of the unique dates in the table for which the [FXRate] field (for any currency) is blank / null. Straightforward enough :
Code: SELECT [tblRates].[RateDate] FROM [tblRates] INNER JOIN [tblCurrencies]
[Code]....
But this gives me a separate record for each date / currency combination in the returned dataset. I just want one record per date and all of the currency codes in a single string (separated by some delimiter) as a text field.
In a situation where I imported an excel file with so many columns and split them into two temp tables and they are linked using a key.
the data has a fixed part lets say
Field1....Field2.....Filed3.....Field4...then Field5.....Field6.....Field7....Field8 is the same data range as Field9...Field10...Field11...Field12. I would want to split this data into multiple rows like this
Field 1 Field2 Field3 Field4 Field5 Field6 Field7 Field8 Field 1 Field2 Field3 Field4 Field9 field10 field11 field12 and so own...
I have about 36 names and each of those names appears anywhere from 2 7 times each. Each name entry has a comment1 and a comment2.What I would like to do is create a form that allows me to choosea name and the display the comments 1 and comments 2 in text boxes.
I have made the form to allow me to choose a name and it shows one of the comment1 and one of teh comment2 in the adjacent text boxes as planned but, I want all the comment1s for Bob to show in the text box for comment1 and all of the comment2s for Bob to show in the Comment2 text box.I believe I need to concatenate the results in the comment1 and comment2 boxes, but I do not know where or how I would do that.
To anyone who can help, I have created a function that loops through an amount of records and concatenates them into a single comma-separated string. What I would like to do is concatente the values into a list. Instead of:
value1, value2, value3
I would like to see
value1 value2 value3
This needs to be in a single record only. The code I am using is: ---------------------------- while not rec.eof string = string & ", " rec.movenext wend string=left(string,len(string)-2) --------------------------------
Thanks for all your help. I have tried to insert char(20), but this only seems to work in Excel. Access gives me invalid char symbol.
I'm looking for a way to summarize multiple fields of data from the same column in a single field. I've seen this page but have been unable to get it to work. I save the code listed but do not know which of the example fields would relate to my table.
I saw that I can create a report and select "group by," but then all the columns appear on different lines rather than summarized on one line. Here is an example of how I would like the data to appear, separated by commas or with specific dates within parentheses. The reason I want them all on one line is to provide an easier to read/more succinct summary.
I have a combo box which is populated by a table with the fields ID, First Name and Surname. What I want to do is display the first name and surname concatenated and hide the ID column, but populate the field with the ID number.
I have an Access 2000 project and am trying in a query view to join 3 values into one. 2 of the values come from tables, the third comes from another query view (all linked in the query design screen)
Value 1 is always populated, but for each record either Value 2 or Value 3 will always be empty. All values are strings.
I have tried this formula in the query design grid:
I need to concatenate these three fields into one but for each record the order can be different. What I want to do is have another field in the table to store the concatenation order as the field names not the field values.
I also need to display the concatenated field as the actual field values and not field names in a form or a report
So if field4 was the concatenated field store it would store the information like this
I am trying to concatinate string in a loop to generate a dynamic SQL to compare 2 tables. But I am not getting the result I want
Code: Set rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("r1") Set rs2 = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("r1_old") columnCount = CurrentDb.TableDefs("r1").Fields.count strSQL = "" For I = 0 To columnCount
[Code] .....
I am trying to achieve something that reads like the following
r1.Field(0) = r2.Field(0) AND r1.Field(1) = r2.Field(1) AND r1.Field(2) = r2.Field(2) AND .....
I have a project that in Access. I'll be handling a survey file that will maintain answers per customer. The visit to customer is done monthly in a year, which means that a customer can have 12 visits in a year. My problem is that if I will maintain this project for the next five years or more, I have to maintain another field in my table that will block the duplicate entries.
I'm trying to concatenate two text fields into a memo field using an expression in a select query. My problem is that the text fields together end up more than 255 characters, so I need the resulting field to be a memo instead. I can't change the underlying text fields to memo fields because this is a large database used by others who need those fields to be text.
