I am a student on a apprenticeship about MS access. My assignment is to build a MS Access application. But i am stuck. I will put my problem as simple as possible.
I have 2 tables. 1 with employees:
Department(string) | EmployeeNr(AutoNr) | EmployeeName(String)
And one with a couple of times:
Time(string)
The table i need is as follows:
Department(String) | EmployeeName(String) | EmployeeNr(AutoNr) | Time1(Boolean) | Time2 (Boolean) | time3(Boolean) | ......
Unfortunatly i have absolutely no idea how to do this and it is killing me :S
Can anybody help me? Thanks in advance.

I work on an enterprise which we send people to do field work, & i am doing a database in Access 2013, there i have a table with all the data of our employees defined by an ID, & i have also a table with all the drivers that take em defined by another ID for them, the problem is when i am trying to make a query..I made a table with the ID of the drivers, the ID of our employees that are on that trip with him, the departure date & the arrival date; and when i try to make my query i want it to display: the both dates, & Name of the driver, his ID, & the truck he is using (all this info is on the driver table), and also to diplay the name, the ID & the rank of the employees going with him (all this info is on the employee table), the problem comes that since i am using the ID to search for every employee info, when i put that more than 1 employee is going in that trip i get this error on the top of table: Expr1000, Expr1001; instead of ID, Name, etc... & no data is displayed.
What Im trying to do is create a query on the back of the one above which will have Problem Source in column 1 and then 2 more columns with their counts in them. So:
SELECT SearchCriteria.[Problem Source], Count(SearchCriteria.[Problem Source]) AS [CountOfProblem Source], Count(SearchCriteria.[Problem Source2]) AS [CountOfProblem Source2] FROM SearchCriteria GROUP BY SearchCriteria.[Problem Source];
I guess this is because it's filtering on the first Problem Source and then looking for non-blanks in the second Problem Source which isnt what Im trying to do!
I have a query I saved which pulls data and a form that creates a pivot table based upon the query.
Is there a way to create a query based upon criteria such as dates to limit my recordset? I'm trying to set date values in a form and update my saved query but I cannot figure it out. Any help would be appreciated.
Here is the SQL I use to create the standard query. What I plan on including through vb is a "Revenue_Date" variable "FROM" and "TO" date in the code to limit the output based upone the dates entered.

I have set up a query to filter information between 2 dates using
Between [Start date] And [Finish Date] to filter the info. I'm using office 2003 which allows me to set various pivot charts based on this info with no problems at all. unfortunatly for me several other people are using office 2000 which doesnt have the same chart functionality. so i'm setting up another switch board with 2000 type charts. Right my problem as long as I dont have the Between [Start date] And [Finish Date] codes in my query I've produced the charts I require with no problems. As soon as I add the filter into the query when i go to edit the chart it comes back saying problems updating data. This I presume is because the query wants an input. Is there a way around this?????
I've spent hours searching for this, hopefully one of you can brighten my day!!!!:D
a co-worker set up several pivot charts in queries, that we now need to get into a distributable format. I had envisioned having these in a report, but access doesn't agree. Is there any way of getting the chart out of access, intact, to place in a word or power point file, or into a report? My attempts to get the chart into a report have all ended with the table-like grid coming up. Surely there's a way... thanks!
CAN THE FORMAT OFF THE WEEK NO USED IN PIVOT CHARTS BE CHANGED THE DEFAULT WEEK NUMBERING SYSTEM IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH THE ENGLISH WEEK NUMBERING SYSTEM. I CAN WORK AROUND THE PROBLEM IN VBA CODE BY USING DATEPART("WW",DATE,VBMONDAY,vbFIRSTFOURDAYS) WHICH RETURNS WEEK NO IN LINE WITH THOSE USED IN ENGLAND BUT THE PIVOT CHART DOSEN'T SEEM TO OFFER THE OPTION OF WHICH WEEK NUMBERING SYSTEM TO BE USED ANY IDEAS!
So I have a layout formulated in my head on how I want this to look but I'm really unsure of what all I need to setup to make this happen. I've never been fond of pivot tables and due to this don't utilize them much to know how to appropriately use it in this instance.
The attached pic file shows how I'd like the form to be setup. There will be fluff at the top that basically signifies what the record is (i.e. name of the jobsite). (A) is a drop down that will list a bunch of categories (bathroom, kitchen, laundry, etc.) Upon selecting that it will populate (C) for the subcategories relative to the main category (A). (C) is a list of part names that are associated with (A). The Column heading (B) is the Plan number which there can be 3 different plans or 5 different plans. The inside data (D) is the count of each part (C) used in each Plan (B) (i.e. 2 sinks in Plan 1, 3 sinks in plan 2, etc). Listed right below that number I want to link a picture (E) showing what that, for example, sink looks like.
So I'm not sure which tables need to be created to make this Pivot Table work. I know it's not an easy solution but if someone could take a little time to help me figure it out I'd appreciate it.
I have a pivot table which I want to associate with a table in my access database. The problem is that when I try to associate it at design time, it gives me an error saying that the database is locked and I cannot access it.
I am using access 2003. Is there any solution to this problem....like making the database unlocked. If not, I wil have to create another database with the same table which seems crazy to me.
Hi, I hope someone can help me. I have a database as thus:
Several tables ->appended together using 'union select' into a query called 'sheet1'-> information that is coded converted via linked tables in a query called 'sheet2'
'Sheet 2' looks completely fine - it works dandy but when I try and run a pivot table not all of the values in one column that should show don't even come up as an option.
The values that are missing on the pivot report do actually exist in the query that it is running from.
There are no filters on and Pivot tables work okay on the origional tables.
ok, i am using pivot in a query. this returns 24 values, one for each hour in the day. i need to sum the values of the first 12 items returned in the query. i need them in the same query. how can this be done? the column is names from 1 through 24, 1 for each hour..
I have a simple crosstab query. I have source as the row heading (basically source is just string category field) and Create_Date as the column heading. This gives me a count of the tickets for each source by day. My Issue is that when Access breaks my Date/Time field into the column heading (Format([Create_Date],"Short Date")), it must turn the date value into a string, then sort that way, because my columns come out as so:
1/18/20081/19/20081/2/2008 1/20/20081/21/2008
Notice that 1/18/2008 comes before 1/2/2008… so it is ordering the columns as a string. How do I get Access to order the columns by date?
Hi all, I'm using access 2002. 2002 has pivoting, but in order to use it you have to download an xp add on(at least I did). After I installed the libraries pivots worked for me- and I added all manner of niftyness-before I discovered that no one else in my department could use it without adding the same downloads. So I decided to go with exporting to excel. That opened up a whole new can of worms, but in the end I finally got it working. I just wanted to share what I found with everyone here-maybe the next person won't have to work so hard. This code works from a toolbar button. Of course if anyone has any suggestions, I'm interested.

I'm trying to use a PivotTable Form (in Access), in order to automate a process (previously data was exported to Excel and the pivot table was created manually). I've got my pivot table form working fine but I need to provide the user with a way to refresh the Pivot table - i.e. re-run the underlying query.
In Access Help it says to select design view and then click the Refresh button (the one with the big red '!' icon). This does work and the data is updated but it's not a user friendly option.
Opening the form doesn't automatically refresh the pivot either, so does anyone know a way I can provide a button with VBA code or whatever to manually update the pivot so it reflects changes in the underlying data?
I have created a pivot chart using the Autoform and now i want to export this charts to powerpoint, i cannot copy that chart which i have created in in autoform, i can export the pivot table to excel sheet and draw again the chats but i cant copy or export the pivot charts directly, Is there any option for that. can anybody help me in this case?
Not sure what section this should go in but it vaguley relates to access and VBA so it's in here.
After a complete nightmare trying to do some decent graphs in ASP i decided to try using excel linked to my Access DB.
I've set up my pivot tables in Excel to link to the Db on the webserver. The user can open the workbook from the website and view the reports and graphs.
The problem is the database contains sensitive data for more than one organisation.
I have a workbook for each organisation selected dynamically when the user logs in to the webpage.
I've set a parameters in the pivot table querys so that all querys will be filtered using the users organisation code.
Trouble is you can access the data source of the pivot table through the wizard and ammend the parameter to view other organisations data.
Is there a way of preventing the user from accessing this feature i.e locking the wizard?
I have a pivot table, It is associated with a table in an another database (access database ofcourse!). What I am doing is that I am inserting new data on a click of a button in that table but the pivot table shows the same old data, it does not refresh..!!
position, DateTime, value (datetime being a text field by the way, not my fault :-))
I wrote a simple pivot query
TRANSFORM Avg(value) AS AvgOfvalue SELECT Position FROM table WHERE (dateTIME)>format(Date()-2,"DD-MMM-YY") GROUP BY position PIVOT dateTIME;
The idea was that I could report each last 2 days with this query.The pivot query works OK.Creating a report based on this query, the control source of the fields is linked to columns like "12-JUN-15 07:00" which will not be available after some days.Isn't it possible to create a pivot report on a pivot query based on dates?
I have a need to display a pivot chart by clicking a button on my menu screen. At the moment my button will just display the query results and if I then click on View/PivotChart View my chart displays.
Code: Private Sub Command316_Click() DoCmd.OpenQuery "R06X - OOS Chart", avViewNormal End Sub
