I have a report listing all individuals within my database by their score. I need to select the top say 40 people from the list, instead of counting down 40 from the top how could I put a number beside each name? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
View RepliesI am trying to create a named hierarchy based off a table from an Oil & Gas Program ARIES. The code below is as far as I could get:

TEST2.......4................1.................TAG .............GTC/GAS.......03.................1........GTC/GAS_1
TEST2.......4................2.................TAG ............."..................22................ ..2........GTC/GAS_2
First I will give background on the table and fields. Then I will explain the overall goal for creating of the TEST and KEYWORD 2 fields.
BACKGROUND
PROPNUM: UNIQUE ID
SECTION: Set of data responsible for a certain function EX: section 4 - expenses, section 5 - interest, etc.
SEQUENCE: The order of the sytanx in that propnum's section
QUALIFIER: Qualifies multiples set of syntax per section to differentiate other work (NOT REALLY IMPORTANT for the query)
KEYWORD: A specific word that the program recognizes and treates the expression according to the key word * the quotes keyword is a continuation line and represent the keyword above it*
EXPRESSION: are the variables that are treated by program according to the keyword
OVERALL GOAL: The main goal is to have a spreadsheet of variables used by the program to calculate it's end result. Which means KEYWORD & EXPRESSION by PROPNUM. THE PROBLEM is that the only way to tell that a quote keyword belongs is by having the sequence and section lined up. So my solution is to rename the quote keyword with the primary keyword and a number.
I have a requirement to sort data of the following format by ref:
ref heading
------------------
1 Section
1.1 Test
1.2 Blah
1.3 Another
1.4 Things
1.4.1 Stuff
1.4.2 Other
...
10.1.1 Something
10.10.1 Else
10.2 Blah blah
2 Some other section
2.1 Another sub-section
...
As this data is stored as a string, a simple "ORDER BY Ref" will not deliver the desired effect, but rather will sort the data alphabetically (1, 10, 2, 20, 3 etc.).
Is anyone able to suggest appropriate SQL syntax or point to some VB/VBA logic to address this issue?
Thanks in advance,
Rob.
I have a combo box in my report design and I would like it to display "true" values as a list with check boxes.
View 5 Replies View RelatedAllen Browne's "Use a multi-select list box to filter a report" solution, in particularly with two multi-select list boxes? The code works fine for me for either box so long as I code it for one box alone. Combining the two into one code results in a type mismatch error. I'm trying to use the code to pass the contents of both multi-select boxes as Where conditions to a report. Both boxes are based on number fields.

I have a table with quite a number of records.
In this table I have a field [Qnumber], which gives me a sequential number.
The field size is Long Integer. So my records are numbered 1, 2, 3, ....n
What I want to achieve is to select only the even numbered records in this table, i.e. Qnumber = 2, 4, 6, ...... etc.

Hi,
I have a table with 400,000 (approx) records in the following format:
a(PK:AutoNum) - b(text)-c(text)-d(Num)-e(text) - f (text - unique/random)
A B C D E F
1 - 6767 - P2 - 1 - 24/992 - 34341212
2 - 6767 - P2 - 1 - 24/993 - 87657483

I need to create a new field in a query that acts like an autonumber, that resets based on an increase in field (d).
ie:
1 - 6767 - P2 - 1 - 24/992 - 34341212 - 1
2 - 6767 - P2 - 1 - 24/993 - 87657483 - 2
3 - 6767 - P2 - 1 - 24/995 - 98764536 - 3
4 - 6767 - P2 - 2 - 24/996 - 87543297 - 1
5 - 6767 - P2 - 2 - 24/998 - 98674635 - 2
6 - 6767 - P2 - 2 - 24/999 - 34546576 - 3
7 - 6767 - P2 - 2 - 25/001 - 98768547 - 4
8 - 6767 - P2 - 2 - 25/002 - 46576897 - 5
9 - 6767 - P2 - 2 - 25/004 - 62536475 - 6
I initially thought I could make an IIF expression that basically says: if [d] in this row is the same as [d] in the previous row then add 1 to the previous record [new number], otherwise, enter 1 in this record [new number] (thereby resetting it)....
I have searched the forums for 'numbered sequences' (amongst other things), and it appears that either the Dcount or Dmax function appear to be the solution, but I'm having some trouble applying it to this problem. I was hoping someone can help me through it.

I have a inventory list that i export from another programe
it exports the lines like so:
ITEM DESCRIPTION PRICE QUANTITY (this line does not get exported)
1021 60BL+40PI+20SL 11$ 120
1022 50BU+30SL+10BZ 8$ 90
CR5415 50BZ+50BL+50SL 5$ 150
Now the program only calculates the quantitys when a order is submited into it.
it does not subtract the quantity on the color in description.(i am the one that mannualy added the text in description wiche is my pysical inventory)
I am able to export the lines from the orders to another table wich looks like so:
1021 05SL 11$ 5
1021 10PI+10SL 11$ 20
1021 02BL+5PI+5SL 11$ 12
Now the description is again me just mannualy typing the text into the order in description and then the quantity.
the program then just minuses the quantity from the inventory list.
now what i hope to acomplish is be able to take the invetory list, and substract the LineOrders Description from it,
and then just give me the new inventory list.
I figured it goes somthing like this but im not to sure.
If [InventoryItem]=[LineOrderItem]
Then
Compare
If __@@ from [InventoryList]is the same as __@@ from [LineOrder] then subtract ##__ from ##__
And i hope to get at the end my new inventory list in this case it would be
1021 58BL+25PI+05SL
I dont mind about the total quantity since the other program does that for me.
If anybody can help me it would be really apreciated.
I hope i have made sense, if i have not please tell me and i will try again.
thank you

My friend extracted some text from a PDF file, pasting it into Excel, and needs to find certain pieces of information. Problem is, the text came out as a long string instead of being broken into cells.
So, what we need to do is find, within the text, the 1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th, 9th, 11th and 13th times the word "Principal" appears, and then report back the name that follows. Within the text, it would read something like
(1234 Principal John Doe)
The number in front of it will change or be in a different format, there are other parentheses in the text (varying number of times within the text), and the name changes, of course. We want to extract the name following the word "Principal"... but only the odd-numbered times they appear. Some cells will have as few as six "Principal" entries, others as many as fourteen.
I have a union query with 2 fields: Order and Row_Heading_Full.
Code:
SELECT DummyClientType.Order, DummyClientType.Client_Type AS Row_Heading_Full
FROM DummyClientType
UNION SELECT ("25") AS [Order], ("Totals") AS Row_Heading_Full
FROM DummyClientType;
The purpose is to pull the Order and Row_Heading_Full fields from a table and add another entry that with "25" as the Order and "Totals" as the Row_Heading_Full at the end of the list.
I want it to be ordered sequentially based on the Order field. But instead it is ordered like this: 1, 10, 11, 12... 20, 21, 22... 3, 4, 5... In other words it is ordering only by the first digit and not by the number as a whole.
When I remove the union aspect it is ordered properly:
Code:
SELECT DummyClientType.Order, DummyClientType.Client_Type AS Row_Heading_Full
FROM DummyClientType;
But that defeats the purpose because I am not adding a final entry of "25" and "Totals".
I have a form with 7 List boxes linked to 7 Query's which in turn are linked to a table. Each list box if for a particular trade.

I have a table (tblContact) with an auto number key field that is numbered sequentially (1-8) there are no deletions, each new record is appended.I wrote a simple FindFirst line to locate a record that is the first record in the table. The FindFirst failed to find the record.So, I wrote a Do Until Loop that cycles through each record looking for the record that I want to find (the first record with key field 1).
Code:
rstContact.MoveFirst
Debug.Print "ContactID: " & rstContact.Fields("ContactID")
Debug.Print "CEmployerID: " & rstContact.Fields("CEmployerID") & vbCrLf
Do Until rstContact.EOF
Debug.Print "ContactID: " & rstContact.Fields("ContactID")
Debug.Print "CEmployerID: " & rstContact.Fields("CEmployerID") & vbCrLf
This works to find the first record... eventually, because it does not begin its search at the first record. The results in the immediate window are below.
Code:
ContactID: 4
CEmployerID: 2
ContactID: 4
CEmployerID: 2
ContactID: 5
CEmployerID: 4
[code]...
I believe the field CEmployerID is unrelated to the issue. I am also attaching screen shots of the table "tblContact" and code with immediate window. I have tried indexing and not indexing the CEmployerID field in the Contact table to no avail. Even though the Do Until Loop eventually finds my record,

I have a field in a table called reasons. Then I have a list of possible reasons in a drop down list for my form. I want to create a report that allows the user to select from a drop down of these reasons and do a query for only those records with that specific reason. I know you can ask that info be typed in by using brackets in the query but instead of typing the reason I want to be able to select from the drop down list to produce the report. Can this be done?

Any Ideas? Maybe I just need more help or the code needs edited!?!?!
Thanks.
My aim is to produce a report - using a drop down list (of customers from customer table) so that users can look at customer history.
I have created a form with a drop down list of customers - from customers table. I have used this to filter the results for a query on the orders table (gives me a history of that customer). All this works perfectly. I get all the transactions for that customer.
My question - is there a way I can create the same result but in a report format instead of the datasheet format. I.e the user will be given the data in report format when they select the customer from the drop down list.
I have a query based report Linked to a form. That is, in my form, i have a combo box. Selecting this combo box pulls out a certain field values in list box in the same form. (Cascading Combo/ List Boxes).
So after i select a certain value in combo box, it shows a certain field values in the list box. Now, i want to open a report and view only the records that has the selected combo box and list box values.
Note: I have seen a guy made an access report based on a query. He made a form with a combo box and a list box.
The report is based on the combo box value selected by the user. Once, the user selected a value in the combo box, the list box updates automatically. ( I have done till here successfully). Then he used a toggle button on the same form.
This toggle button opens the report with the combo box value as the criteria but filters the report based on the field value in the list box.
How to place a toggle button with a filter command to open a query based report?
Dear all, is it possible to run a query (or ideally a report) based on a selection from a drop down list in a form? (in accsess 97). The reson being is i have a big list of of codes for different absence reasons & at present the user has to type in the correct code to display the data in a report based on the code they enter, however its not easy for users to remember which code to type in to run a report.
Idealy what i would like is a drop down list with the absence codes & the absence desciption next to each code, then when the user selects a code from the list it displays the corresponding data in the report?
Is this possible?, any help would be much appreciated, thanks.
I have about 10 reports and I have them listed in a combo box. I would like to just pull down the report I want and click on the single button and it would open up. I know I am a pain in the *** but I could always hook the reports to 10 buttons but that design looks trashy.
I already made the reports and just waiting for some help. I think im losing my mind, it seem every time something is done in this database, people keep asking for more changes. What is going on.....
I'm trying to get a list into a report, the specific list is build in a form.
How can i get this list displayed in a report ?
Can i load the list using vba code or is there an easy-er way of doing this ?
I have a form with a list box, which lists all those registered for a student orientation. I then have a button to an unbound report which prints a registration worksheet. This report looks up the student's name, test scores, suggested courses based on those scores, and various other information from multiple tables, assigns them to variables, then to controls on the report. This is done in the On Open event of the report.
But it was designed to work for record highlighted. Which was fine until now. Now I'd like to take it one step further and have it go through the list from beginning to end, printing the report for each record in the list.
Maybe I am missing something simple, but I can't seem to pull it off. The closest I can get is getting it to print the first record n times.
I have a report that runs a parameter query identifying which StudentID it wants to run the report of, and what month/year.I want to leave the month/year as a parameter, but what I want to do is get the record that I selected from the listbox (IE. student 1000) and then when I click on Run Report Card, it wouldn't ask me for the parameter of the student, but just the year, and then it would run the report card for the student I selected.
I tried doing the open report macro and in the where row I put
[StudentID] = [Forms]![Form1]![List12]
but it didn't seem to work.
I am running MS Access 2010 on Windows XP and my access skills are limited.
So I have a db with tables, forms and reports and would like to give my users the option of opening a filtered report (from a form).
The form (frmSelectStatus) and report (rptStatus) have been created and both open correctly by normal selection from the 'All Access Objects' side bar.
frmSelectStatus has a multi-select list box (lstStatus) and a command button (cmdStatus). When I click cmdStatus i get the correct report opening but it is all status records and not filtered by the selection made in lstStatus - and i know this is a result of not referencing 'lstStatus' in the code. i also have a query (qryStatus) which does not contain anything.
My 'on-click' code for cmdStatus is
Private Sub cmdSelect_Click()
DoCmd.OpenQuery "qryStatus", acViewNormal, acEdit
DoCmd.OpenReport "rptStatus", acViewReport
DoCmd.Close acQuery, "qryStatus"
End Sub
I know I need to reference 'lstStatus' but am not sure where or how to do that in the code.
I am trying to setup a button that will open a report on click. The catch is that the report name is coming from a query result that is populated into a list box. The way it works the list box will never have more than one result so by default it will always house the name of the report appropriate to a chosen client. I would like to do it this way so that I don't have to clutter up the from with extra buttons all pointing to specific reports.
I found some references to this in this forum, including the example listed below, but I have been unsucessful in making work so I assume that I am entering wrong, entering it the wrong place or maybe the code is incomplete. Unfortunately I am a complete novice to Access VBA so I am still learning how it all works together.
List box name is BillingFormat
The first of 5 reports is named Standard Billing
So in the form I enter the client number and BillingFormat is auto populated with Standard Billing
I tied the button to this code: DoCmd.OpenReport Me.BillingFormat, acPreview
The results I was looking for was for the report named Standard Billing would open. The first way I set it up nothing happened not even any errors. The other way threw an error stating it did not recognize DoCmd as a valid function.
what I am doing wrong?
Ok, I am a noob at reports and did a search on this. My searching DID NOT HELP ME! I thought I would make that clear :D Maybe someone can tell me what to look at for this issue.
I need to take one report, allow the users to easily use a dropdown or listbox on a form to Sort and Group many fields of data. To recap: The user will click on name in the list and it will sort report by name. Also I need them to be able to select up to three sort criterias.
EX: Sort by Name then LastName then Company
Please guide me to the answer. Thanks.
