I'm trying to make a nested if then statement in a query field, and I can't figure out why I can't get my formula to work:
Volume: IIf([MethodCode]="K",[total]*12.54*0.026873,IIf([MethodCode]="S",([length]*[width]*[depth])/2,IIf([MethodCode]="M" And [Location]="SH",[total]*5.08*0.026873,IIf([MethodCode]="M" And [Location]="C",[total]*18.58*0.026873," "))))
I keep getting the "data type mismatch in criteria expression" error. If I separate out all the individual if then statements individually, they work. But if I connect them all as a nested if then it doesn't work.
I have a table of dates that store all the Sundays of a year, as that is what all of our records are based on (how many items an employee sold on the week ending on such and such a date). The table is called WeekEndDates and the column is called WeekEndDate. I want to automate adding a new week, so I have a command button that has the following VB code:
DoCmd.RunSQL ("INSERT INTO WeekEndDates (WeekEndDate) VALUES (DATEADD('D',7, SELECT Max(WeekEndDate) FROM WeekEndDates)")
Any help would be appreciated, I don't know of another way to do this. I'm not sure if this is a SQL question or a VB question, so sorry if this is in the wrong spot.
I'm new to working with Access Iif statements. I'm attempting to change data values in an existing table for column named "Status." Some of the data in this column has the correct value (Active) that needed represented, while the rest is populated with either a "J" which is Active or "T" which is inactive. I needed an update query that will ignore any values that are already "Active," and convert any values that are "J" to Active and values that are "T" to "Non Active." Any help would be greatly appreciated. Below is the function I have written that's full of syntax errors:
IIf(([STATUS] T,"T") = "T", then "Non Active"), IIf([STATUS] J,"J") = "J" then "Active"), else Active = "Active"))
I am trying to calculate the time between two dates where one date field might be blank or not. Where the field is blank I want to use the current date to perform the calculation. So far I have the following but I keep receiving an error message saying that the expression has a function with too many arguments. Is there a simpler solution to this?
IIF([LastOfEnd_Date] IS NULL,(DateDiff(w,[LastOfDischarge_Date],NOW()))/4, IIF(Not isnull([LastOfEnd_Date], Abs(DateDiff("w",[LastOfDischarge_Date].[LastOfEnd_Date]))/4
I have a form in my Access database that has 3 input boxes by which a user can locate a record by. The problem I am running into is that I can not get a nested IF statement to work properly to first check which of the search boxes are filled in and second search by whichever is filled in. I have come up with the following code that seems to be only searching by the first input box. If the first input box is blank it does not move to the second or third numbers so I imagine there may be something wrong with the order of my IF statement or the syntax is off.
I have four fields that typically have a quantity amount in them.
I also have a field with a date.
I would like to say something like this
If fielda = 0 and fieldb = 0 and field = 0 and fieldd = 0 and in the date field, the date is >30day from today’s date add a 1 to this field, otherwise leave it blank
I have been doing some experimentation with Queries and I have discovered something unusual.
If I have one query and I use the totals feature (only using group by) I get all the records based on the inputed criteria
If I then use that same query as an underlying recordset for a second query and I use the totals feature (only using group by) in the second query... I only get the first record of each type. See query results below..
I am trying to achieve the results of the second query in the first query (DON'T WANT NESTED Queries) and I don't really understand why the results of the queries are different when everything else is the same other than one being nested.
Example below
First Query Results (using totals with group by)
1 a 1 a 1 a 2 a 2 a 2 a 3 a 3 a 3 a 4 a 4 a 5 a
Second Query Results with the First query as its recordset (using Group By)
SELECT * FROM ((TBL_Properties INNER JOIN TBL_Property_Landlords ON TBL_Properties.Property_ID=TBL_Property_Landlords. Property_ID) INNER JOIN TBL_Landlords ON TBL_Property_Landlords.Landlord_ID=TBL_Landlords.L andlord_ID) INNER JOIN TBL_Agents ON TBL_Properties.Agent_ID=TBL_Agents.Agent_ID;
so far. But I need to join the results from another query which will be calculating SUM(Pay). Is it possible to INNER JOIN to a: (SELECT ....) nested query?
hi guys, i have this sql that filters 2 tables to give me the highest number against a record and then i want to update the 1st table. but it dosnt seam to work it brings back the correct data but the sql has generated a non-updatable query.
any ideas?
UPDATE [SELECT ARCtblErrorInfo.Uber, Max(ARCtblHistory.Status) AS MaxOfStatus FROM ARCtblErrorInfo LEFT JOIN ARCtblHistory ON ARCtblErrorInfo.Uber = ARCtblHistory.Uber WHERE (((ARCtblErrorInfo.Status)=121)) GROUP BY ARCtblErrorInfo.Uber]. AS test INNER JOIN ARCtblErrorInfo ON test.Uber = ARCtblErrorInfo.Uber SET ARCtblErrorInfo.Status = [test].[MaxOfStatus];
I have done smoe baisc queries to sort, filter and report on data.How do I create a nested query where I don't repeat all the information across the query results line? Is there a way I can build a nested query to give all the SMCode codes associated with each appointment in one column separated by a coma?I have a table with appointments (APPTS):
RecID ADate ATime Durantion PVID Desc Case#
Then I have a table with Orders related to these appointments (ORDERS):
RecID Case# SMCode SMDate
Here's my query:
SELECT DISTINCTROW Appts.RecID, Appts.ADate, Appts.ATime, Appts.Durantion, Appts.PVID, Appts.Desc, Orders.SMCode FROM Appts INNER JOIN Orders ON Appts.[Case#] = Orders.[Case#];
I have different product groups and they can have one of 3 rental rates(5,4,3%) I have written a nested query but I keep getting parenthesis errors, the last one I got told me I must enclose iif functions in parentheses. I know its probably a small thing but I just cant see it. By the way the server is German so ; need to be used instead of ,.
IIf([view_India]![Sub_Group] In (1730;1810;2870);5;iif Left([view_India]![Sub_Group];2) In (01;02;21;24;29) ;5;iif([view_India]![Sub_Group] In (3310;3330;3340;3360);3;4))))
I have made this sql statement in VBA where rubriek = a variable but I dont know how to implement a variable in a nested query.
SELECT "rubriek, SUM(verkoopprijs) as prijzen FROM voorwerp (inner join VoorwerpInRubriek on voorwerp.voorwerpnummer = VoorwerpInRubriek.voorwerp) inner join Rubriek on rubriek.rubrieknummer = VoorwerpInRubriek.rubriekOpLaagsteNiveau where rubriek in (select rubrieknummer from rubriek where rubriek = variable name ) group by rubriek"
Do I have to treat it as a normal select query or is there something speical that I have to do ?
The situation is I have two queries, one uses the other as a source, and the other uses DSUM with the source query as it's domain.
For example: I have one query called RetailCDState, this prompts the user for the name of a state (i.e. Texas), and then prompts for the name of the CD (i.e. Joshua Tree). The query returns the number of CD's sold for each retail store entered for that state.
I have another query called, TotalRetailState. This query uses RetailCDState as it's source. I pull some fields down into the QBE so that the CDname, state, artist name, etc will be shown. This works.
HERE IS THE PROBLEM. I have created 3 expression fields: TotalCDSOLD, TotalCDSHIP, and TotalCDRETURN. In these expression fields I have used DSUM, I want to use the query RetailCDState as the domain, which the help files said I can. However, it's giving me an expression error saying that it can't find the 'state' or 'CD Name', which is what should prompt the user when the whole thing is executed.
I get 3 error messages, one for each expression field, and then it prompts the user for the correct input, but then doesn't display the information. Here is an example of my DSUM line TotalCDSHIP: DSUM("[NumofCDSold]","RetailCDState")
I shouldn't need any criteria, because the results of the RetailCDState is what I want to total.
What is the best approach to returning calculated results in a query. I have been using nested IIf statements that include DateAdd but I think that I am at a point where there must be a better way.
I want my query to calculate a date based on: 1) A Type field from my table 2) A calculated date based on other query fields.
My query has the following fields: [Type] [Action 1] [Projected Action 1] [Projected Action 1 Revised] [Action 2]
I want to create a calculated field for [Projected Action 2] that says:
If [Type] is "A" then if [Action 2] Is NotNull, Null if [Action 1] is NotNull, [Action 1] + 10 workdays if [Projected Action 1 Revised] is NotNull, [Projected Action 1 Revised] + 10 workdays if [Projected Action 1] is NotNull, [Projected Action 1] + 10 workdays
[Code] ....
I would like to keep using nested IIf but I keep running into problems and I thought that there is probably a better way.
Some essential background first. I have a Balances table which records balances by date. I also have an Issues table where problems are logged. There is a one-to-many relationship between Balances and Issues (i.e. each Balance can have multiple Issues). I also have a Comments table where updates for each Issue are recorded. There is again a one-to-many relationship between Issues and Comments (i.e. each Issue can have multiple Comments)
There are two key date fields in the Issues table :FlagDate (the date an Issue was flagged by a user for investigation)
ResolveDate (the date said investigation was brought to a conclusion)
There is also a date field in the Comments table :UpdatedWhen (the date any given comment was added)
So the basic flow is that an Issue gets flagged (FlagDate), then various comments are added (multiple UpdatedWhen's) and finally the Issue gets resolved (ResolveDate)
I need to incorporate a trend graph which will show the counts ofNew (i.e. new issues flagged as of each day) Cleared (i.e. issues resolved each day)
Updated (i.e. issues not yet resolved but updated each day)
Unchanged (i.e. issues not yet resolved and not updated each day)
Outstanding (i.e. all unresolved issues as of each day)
This is the SQL I've put together to get that table of information on which to base my chart :
Code: SELECT [tblBalances].[BalanceDate] AS AsOfDate, (SELECT COUNT([tblIssues].[IssueID]) FROM [tblIssues] WHERE [tblIssues].[Flag] = True AND [tblIssues].[FlagDate] = [tblBalances].[BalanceDate]) AS New,
[Code] .....
The subqueries for 'New', 'Cleared' and 'Outstanding' work perfectly; the resultant dataset gives me one record for each date in the Balance table and correctly counts the number of issues falling into each of those buckets.
The problem I have is with the 'Updated' bucket. If a flagged issue happens to be updated twice on the same day (which is perfectly acceptable), it counts this twice as well. I don't want this as I just want to know how many issues were updated on any given day - not how many updates there were.
I tried using COUNT(DISTINCT) in the 'Updated' subquery but it gives me a syntax error - on further research, I don't think it's possible to use the DISTINCT keyword in a COUNT subquery (at least not easily)
I also tried grouping by IssueID within that 'Updated' subquery but it still gives me the duplicate count within the same IssueID (and returns nulls rather than zeroes for those days where no updates occured)
I think I need to add a subquery within the subquery () to only return the latest comment as of the date in question - something along the lines of :
Code: (SELECT TOP 1 [tblComments].[UpdatedWhen] FROM [tblComments] WHERE [tblComments].[IssueID] = [tblIssues].[IssueID] AND DateValue([tblComments].[UpdatedWhen]) <= [tblBalances].[BalanceDate] ORDER BY [tblComments].[UpdatedWhen] DESC) AS UpdatedWhen
But how to do this, nor if it is even feasible in Access to begin with.
I have a report that is based on nested (I think thats the phrase) query's.
Complicated Query based on another query (so I can't see a way to get at the the source SQL to change or use elsewhere)
This gives a list of say 20 records I generally want printed. I use the exact same query criteria with a separate update query to add the same to a table.
However I then wanted to just pick one with exact matching ID's I select on a form.
I could not see an easy way to apply this without making another set of nested querys which seems a little excessive
Anyway, an easy way for the printed report to do this is a simple filter added after, works great.
I can't see a way to do the same for an update query.
I was wondering if I could get the record source of this report and add to my table. I have tried with
' Dim db As DAO.Database ' Dim rs As DAO.Recordset 'Set db = CurrentDb 'Set rs = db.OpenRecordset(Me.RecordSource, dbOpenDynaset) ' Set rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset(Me.RecordSource)
And dozens of variations over some hours but a variety of errors mainly "too few parameters."
I have a simple nested query that is not working as expected. My inner query returns 102 records but when I run with outer query I only get 96 records. Below is my query, I don't really want to pull the same fields from both tables but I was doing to test. The values that are missing are those that don't exist with the monthenddate 8/31/2014 - a left join should fix that but doesn't seem to be working ..
Code:
Select distinct a.entity, a.gl_account,a.profit_center,[Open Items_1].profit_center,[Open Items_1].gl_account,[Open Items_1].entity from( SELECT DISTINCT [Open Items].entity, [Open Items].gl_account, [Open Items].profit_center FROM [Open Items] )a left outer JOIN [Open Items] AS [Open Items_1] ON (a.profit_center = [Open Items_1].profit_center) AND (a.gl_account = [Open Items_1].gl_account) AND (a.entity = [Open Items_1].entity) Where ([Open Items_1].MonthEndDate=#8/31/2014#)
Now, I know that something in the UPDATE statement does not match my select statement.What should my Update Statement be, in order to update all the columns in the joined tables?
Columns of data contain date fields & "Status" that indicates where a case lies. I'm trying to calculate days spent in a specific area (determined by status code) and total amount of time spent there all together. Status code begining w/ "I***" means case was sent to an area, w/ "R***" it returned. I have it together up to a point. My problem lies with end of expression where I want to calculate last date at specific location to now. In line 1 it would be from 5/03/07 to now since no r162 follows & blank field follows. Problem is with second IIF - it acts independently instead of giving false value from first IIF... i think.
stat2n4: IIf([status2]="i162" Or [status2]='i062' Or [status2]='i009' Or [status2]='i159' And [status3]<>'r162' Or [status3]<>'r162' And [Status4]="r162",DateDiff("d",[date2],[date4]),IIf(IsNull([status4]),DateDiff("d",[date4],Now())))
I have placed a tab control within a tab control (which I have done before). The problem is that the sub tab control appears on every page of the main tab form (encountered this before). I fixed it in the past by placing code on the on open event to make the sub tab control not visible unless the appropriate tab is selected. That worked fine.
I have tried this in the new program and find that when I set the value of the main tab form to 4 (the page index of the tab) the sub tab form will not display at all. However if I set it to zero it will display regardless of which tab is selected. Confusion has now set in :confused: . Any thoughts out there on what I have done incorrectly.
[/CODE]Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
'Me.OrderBy = "RankNo desc" 'Me.OrderByOn = True If TabCtl44.Value = 4 Then TabCtl144.Visible = True Else TabCtl144.Visible = False End If End Sub[CODE]
