I have two tables Table 1 and Table 2. Table 1 has 6 fields 175 records and Table 2 has 4 fields and 330 records. The first three fields in both the tables are the same. I need to find all records in the first table that have a matching record in the second table based on those first three fields. How can I accomplish this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Hi All,
I have a strange problem that has me beaten.
I open an Access 2003 table, sort on field "Job Number", click the Find button and enter a job number.
I expect to find 30 records, but Find only hits 8 of them.
If I over-type the Job Number (with the same numerics), Find is then able to return this record.
If I place my cursor in ANY of the 30 records and click Filter by Selection, all 30 records are included.
I thought there may be a non-printable character or a space hidden at the end of the field, but I expect both Filter and Find would return the same records.
Even more strangely, when my client zips the MDB file and emails it to me, this behaviour does not occur on my PC.
Has anyone else comes across this behaviour? If so, can you please point me in the direction that will help me find a solution.
cheers,
Mark Chimes
I have a form where a user reviews information input by another user, once they have done this they sign it off by selecting their name from a drop down list. On this form there is a scrolling message which tells the user how many un-signed entries there are. This works fine until there are 0 (zero) entries to be signed off.
The scrolling message is linked to a count query which basically counts any records that does not have a name entered in the required field. I have done this with ' Not Like "*" '
Like I say it works when there is one or more entries to count, but as soon as there are none the query does not output a zero it is just blank. This is the problem.
I need some sort of statement to say if there are no matching records please display a zero.
Any help would be much appreciated!
Suppose I have two tables with fields as follows:
Assigned Courses (Courses that employees should do)Employee number
Assigned Course Name
Fulfilled Course (Courses that employees have done)Employee number
Fulfilled Course
Now I need to do a query that tells me which employees haven't done. Is there anyway to do that that is not an exclude query?
I am trying to create a query in Access 2010 for records that don't match based on the following criteria. I have two tables with identical ID's and I need to do a comparison on the amount field between both tables and only return the records from one table displaying all fields plus the amount fields that do not equal. I tried this in the wizard unsuccessfully.
View 13 Replies View RelatedI have several tables that I am trying to get information from:
Clock Number Table with fields: Clock #, Name, Title, Dept, Term, HireDate, & TransDate.
Completed Training with fields: Clock #, Data Completed, Doc # & Rev Level
Linked Table, Controlled Documents with fields: Doc #, Title, Effective Date & Rev Level
Linked Table, Distribution Table with fields: Doc #, Distribution, Rev Level & Effective Date.
Some of the tables have more fields that those listed, but they do not pertain to this query.
I am trying to create queries that will provide me with the names of employees who have not been trained on Controlled Documents that have been distributed to their department.
So far, I have been able to determine if no one has been trained, but if even one person has been trained, they do not appear on my list. I would like to know the Clock # and name of those that have not been trained.
I have created 3 queries to get this far. Query 1 is the Clock # Table and the Completed Training Table joining the Clock #. Query 2 is the Controlled Document Table and the Distribution Table joining the Doc #, Rev Level. Query 3 takes these queries and joins Doc # and Rev Level. and pulls records where the Rev. Level and Doc # is Null.
I have a database that is used (partially) to enter appointments during a day. In the appointment column I've entered the date and time as dd-mmm-yyy-hh-nn-ss. I'm now trying to search for appointments entered on a specific day through a user input ([Enter Date] in the query criteria) Problem is, this only returns records where the time hasn't been entered and the time shows as 00:00:00.
I've tried CDate which gives me add/mmm/yyy return. if I try to search against that I get nil returns though. As a test I put DATE() in the criteria but it then says that it's an invalid foremat. I've also tried various machinations of "Like" and "Between" without success.
A very elementary question - but I'd be grateful for an answer.
I have two tables (or perhaps two queries) each with a key field. If all is well, there should be complete correspondence between the two sets of records. That is, if there's a record with key 12345 in one table, there should also be a record with key 12345 in the other table.
I'm looking for the simplest way of checking whether or not this is the case, and, if it's not, detecting which records in one table are unmatched by any record in the other.

I have a database called LettersDatabase this databse holds all the letters that have been made including the path to the doc. I use SSN to ID the letters to customers on the Contacts Database.
Contacts database also uses the SSN to id the contacts
I have a form that creates new letters for customers in this form I have listbox that queries the LettersDatabase for all matching records based on the forms contact SSN to see how many letters have been made for that customer.
The problem is that my listbox only shows the first record matching that SSN but there are more records in that LettersDatabase with the same SSN that I need to have diplayed on the listbox as well.
I may be writing the query incorrectly.
Here what I have for the query on the listbox
Like[Forms]![LetterMaker]![txtSSN]
I try adding (&"*") to the end of the query but that does not help.
If anyone out there has the solution to this problem it would be greatly appreciated
Thank you
Hi can anyone please help me out. How can I delete records from one table, where matching in a second table?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI need to have the sum of the "matching records" of a subform, exported to a variable of the main form, in order to use it in an if condition.
e.g. "IF a client has brought X? times the vehicle A for a service of type B, THEN do ..."
How do I get the X value in a variable within the main form which presents all activity for all clients (by means of a subform).
I hope this is clear.
Plaese help me, guys. You 've done it before, you're so great!
Hi
Apologies if there is a previous post that answers this - I've looked, but can't find anything that works.
I have two tables with identical structures. tblA contains a subset of the records on tblB, with identical values on all fields except ID. I need to remove from tblB all records appearing on tblA. I thought the following would work:
DELETE tblB.* from tblB
INNER JOIN tblA ON tblB.Field1 = tblA.Field1
AND tblB.Field2 = tblA.Field2
AND tblB.Field3 = tblA.Field3...
but I get "Could not delete from specified tables".
What am I doing wrong? Or is there an easier way?

Hello there,
I have tables like so (simplified):
-=Holiday=-
HolidayID
Name
Date
-=Booking=-
BookingID
HolidayID
ClientID
What I would like to do is create a query which returns a list of all the holidays with a field showing how many bookings have been created for each holiday. This almost works:
SELECT Count(1) AS CountOfBookingID, Bookings.HolidayID
FROM Bookings
GROUP BY Bookings.HolidayID;
...but it does not display holidays where there are no bookings.
Is it possible to create one which will show all holidays even if there are no bookings?
Thanks!:cool:
Hi,
I've been trying to get this for ages now - both in the design view and in sql:
I have 2 tables - one called DrawingsRegister and a related one called DrawingRevisions. Each drawing has one or more drawing revisions. I want a query that will show each drawing (just once) that has more than one revision:
SELECT tblDrawingsRegister.DrawingNum, tblDrawingsRegister.DrawingName, tblDrawingRevisions.DrawingNum
FROM tblDrawingsRegister INNER JOIN tblDrawingRevisions ON tblDrawingsRegister.DrawingNum = tblDrawingRevisions.DrawingNum
WHERE ((Count([tblDrawingRevisions]![DrawingNum])>"0"));
Thanks for your time,
RCurtin.
I have two tables, categories and items. I have a form that is linked to the categories table and a subform that is linked to the items table. The user selects a category on the main form then an item to add to the category on the subform. (all of this is functioning correctly - but you need to understand for my question.)
Both the form and the subform have a text box that displays a record from their respective table, for the example we will call this color.
What I need to do is create code that checks the color text box from the category (main form) against the text box for the item (subform) and if they are not a match I need to display a message box - from where I can then add the necessary actions.
EDIT: note this is not a query on an entire table or 2 it is just comparing the two text boxes on the form and subform
I have a form that is bound to a query that returns all records matching a set criteria (namely, the field ApprovalDate is null); the idea is that the user clicks on a command button which gives information, and if the user chooses to continue (vbYes), then the field ApprovalDate has its value set as the current date, and the record is saved.
Next, I have put in DoCmd.Requery to requery the form and effectively go to the next record wanting approval - this appears to work fine, however I need to add something to the code that handles a null return from the requery - preferably a message box and then have the form close.
I have a datasheet form listing prospect information.
Each prospect is assigned a position, there can be more than one prospect with the same position.
I'm trying to get a text box to lookup the prospects position and search the remaining rows for matching positions and return the total number found.
This data does not need to be stored anywhere, just a reference value for users to look at.
lots of customers. lots of orders. i need to query for the first order of each customer only. thoughts?

How to get the following results using 1 table:
Field1 ID is an auto record ID, field2 ID is actually field1 ID assigned that record, in other words record 1 has a roommate (record 5) assigned to it, record 2 has a roommate (record 4) assigned to it
Table A
Field1 ID Field2 ID
1 5
2 4
3 6
4 2
5 1
6 8
Results records I'm looking to display for would be:
1 5
2 4
3 6
6 8
I only want to display all fields for records, but I don't want to show their matching record, so I want to display record1, but not record 5 because record 1 has record 5 as a roommate, want to display record 2 but not record 4.
Hello
I've had to export data from an old third party database to Access with the task of reporting on the data. I have a client table and work tables, one for each year going back to 1992. In the original database, the clients do not have a date of when they were set up. I need to find out how long clients have been with us, so I thought of going back through the work tables 2006 to 1992 and finding out where they first occurred, by looking for duplicate records in the tables. Is this a simple enough thing to do? The client table and work tables are linked through the field Client.
Thanks

Can't think how I would do this. If I create a query with a certain date then it will need to be changed every time the query is run. How would I write a query that automatically looks for a date 3 months or more old.
Thanks for any help. :D
I have a table, and there are many records, each with a unique value in the OrderNumber field
I have a text box on a form, and i want it to work so that the user types in a OrderNumber value, and it loads that record into the form (the form is bound to the table)
I already know how to load a record by record number, but how can i do it by OrderNumber value?

Hello, i need to have my database find records that were entered between two dates. To do this i made a query that included the dates the records needed to be in between....[date1] and [date2]. Then i had the record dates be called [sent date]. i made my query and in the criteria for [sent date] i wrote
(Between [Date1] And [Date2])
when i enter the two dates [date1] and [date2] the query does not show the records that are between that date. why is this happening? is there and easier way? another way?
For example, say that i have records with their [sent dates] equaling 12/30/2004, 1/1/2005, 10/1/2005
i want to make it so that when the user inputs a records with dates [date1] and [date2], that those records will show up if their [sent dates] are between [date1] and [date2]. if [date1] is 1/1/2003 and [date2] is 1/1/2006, all of the records will show up.
if [date1] is 12/31/2004 and [date2] is 1/3/2005, then only the record with the date 1/1/2005 will show up.
how can i do this?

It's combining data from 2 system Identified by E or L. The data is similar but not exact & I'm comparing it using the description. What I need Access to do is find the record that doesn't "zero-out". In the example above the record it should pull is the last one "Kroger $389.74". How to do this but I do have a query/report that will subtotal based on the LOC-RC field.
