Problem With Lcase And Ucase Data In Table

Apr 12, 2006

Hello friends,
I have data in my table field as "Orange" and some other entries in as all lower cases "orange", which really should be representing the same values.

Now when i use SQL in my modules to query and process this data, or create my report, it collects them as different values i.e. "Orange" is selected as one category and "orange" as another category, when really it should be getting them all (Orange, orange, ORAnge) as one category.

Perhaps this is a basic question, but everything i have tried doesn't seem to work. Can anyone tell me the best way to handle this?

Ucase Question...

Jun 23, 2005

We have a situation where mail sent to Canada using the mail merge is being returned because it's not in all caps. I've used the following code in each fields after update:

Me.ActiveControl = UCase(Me.ActiveControl)

What I'd like to do is make it so only the Canadian addresses are in upper case. This would be determined by what is in the state field. AB, BC, etc. Any U.S. address would need to be in proper case where the first letter of each word is capitalized.

Can this be done?

UCase Function Not Recognised

Apr 14, 2006

In my Access 2000 database I have a form which displays patients' treatment details.
I have a text box in which the Forename and Surname are concatenated to display the full name and the Surname is included in a UCase function so that it is displayed in capitals:

=[tblPatient.Forename] & " " & UCase([tblPatient.Surname])

This works fine on my office computer (XP professional), but when I run it on my home machine (XP Home) in order to carry out further development, the UCase function is not recognised. I get the #Name? message in the text box and if I try altering the formula I get the message:

The function you entered can't be used in this expression
*You may have used a DoEvents, LBound, Ubound, Spc or Tab function in an expression
*You may have used an SQL aggregate function, such as Count, in a design grid or in a calculated control or field

As far as I know, the versions of Access are exactly the same on my home and office machines.
Is anyone able to shed any light on why this function works on one machine and not the other?

Thanks,

Jules

UCase Does Not Work In A Query

Oct 27, 2006

A few years ago, I wrote an application in Access 2000 that worked fine. Last year I upgraded to Access 2003. Everything works the same, but the UCase, Left and Right text functions give error messages when used in queries. Anyone have a way to fix this?::confused:

UCase Function Problem

Nov 1, 2004

I am taking an online Access class.

I have an assigment to create an Update Query.

The Update Query is to prompt name entry in all lower case, then convert it to upper case.

The Update Query must do the formatting, no utilizing the Input Mask.

This is the code I thought would work.

Field: Firstname
Table: Good Data
Update: UCase([Firstname])
Criteria: [Enter first name in lower case]

The parameter box part of the Query runs fine. When I run the Query the parameter dialog appears instructing you to enter your firrst name in lower case. After I enter the name in lower case & click "OK" the reponse is "You are about to update 0 row(s).". There is nothing entered in the table when I check it.

Can anyone tell me what I need to change to make the Query update the table with the uppercase name?

Thanks,
Yaani-Mai

Modules & VBA :: Check If Data In Table 1 Matches With Any Of Data In Table 2

Dec 4, 2014

There are two tabs named Table1 and Table2. In actual there are two tables in Access database named Table1 and Table2. How the data is stored in ACcess tables, I have made two tabs in excel workbook. Now I want Access VBA code that will check if data in Reference field of Table1 matches with any of the data in Reference field of Table2.

If it matches then change the status of the corresponding record of Table2 with either "Withdrawn","Obsolete" or "Updated". SO it depends upon which field out of "WIthdrawn","Obsolete" and "Updated" in Table1 stores "Y". At a time only one of them will have "Y" and rest of two fields will have "N" as shown in the sheets.

As in the example, now Reference "R566" of Table1 matches with Table2 Reference so the status field in Table2 for that record will be "WithDrawn".

Queries :: Filter Data From A Table Using Query (from Data Input Form)

Dec 30, 2014

I would like to filter data from a table using a query (from an data input form). The objective is to output all results if input form field is empty and to output results higher or equal to the type in the field if field is not Null. The query code is as follows:

IIf(IsNull([Forms]![Form2]![MaxDiffInput]);[Maximum operational pressure (bar)];[Maximum operational pressure (bar)]>=[Forms]![Form2]![MaxDiffInput])

However, is not providing any result when the input field (MaxDiffInput) as a value.

Modules & VBA :: Copy Data In Sheet1 Using Sheet 2 And Access Table Data?

Aug 5, 2014

I am using Excel/VBA as a frontend and Access backend. The sheet2 stores the queue name and Queue number. We have to update the sheet1 from column L to column O by looking for the values from the Access table for the date selected from the comboboxes. Now In sheet 2 , it says Queue number and in actual in access table it is the combination of Type & Type1 & Type2. So we have to look for Type & Type1 & Type2 in the table and find out total Batches ,Total Envelopes,Total documents and total pages and then store the values in the ExcelSheet1 from column L to column O.

The following formulas will be used in the select statment:

Total Batches = count(BatchNo) for date selected
Total Envelopes=sum(Envelopes) for date selected
Total Documents=sum(Cases) for date selected
Total Pages=sum(Pages) for date selected

General :: Updating Table Data With Data From Preceding Entry?

Jan 5, 2013

My question is this: I have a table where I'm entering employees' hours worked. Basically, it's something like this:

ID WorkerNumberDateworkedTimeStartTimeEnded
121/2/201310:00:00 AM3:00:00 PM
221/3/20132:00:00 AM11:00:00 AM
321/4/201312:15:00 AM11:30:00 AM
421/5/201310:25:00 PM11:00:00 AM
531/2/201311:00:00 AM3:30:00 PM
631/3/201312:00:00 PM10:00:00 PM
731/10/20137:00:00 AM4:00:00 PM

I have a query that (easily) determines how many hours an employee has worked on any given day. What I can't figure out at all, is how to write a query that can figure out how much time an employee had off in between shifts.

Thus far I'm able to run a query that separates this main table into individual workers by their id numbers, but can't figure out how to determine time off between shifts - as the last hour worked one day, and the first hour worked the next day are on two different lines (they are two different table entries).

Modules & VBA :: Take Data From One Table And Insert Into Another Whilst Doing Calculations On Data

May 2, 2014

I am trying to use SQL to run queries in our access database in order to (hopefully) speed things up. I'm trying to create code that basically takes data from one table and inserts it into another whilst doing calculations on the data.

However I can't get past this:

Code:
Private Sub Test_Click()
Dim strSQL As String

strSQL = "CREATE TABLE [TempRedAmberGreen]" & _
"AS (SELECT " & _
"[ID_CHK] String," & _
"[Red] String," & _
"[Amber] String," & _
"[Green] String)" & _
"FROM [035 - Meter Point HH Data];"
DoCmd.RunSQL strSQL

End Sub

It keeps saying "Run-time error '3292': Syntax error in field definition.

Changing Data In Query Results Changes Data In Source Table

Dec 17, 2012

I have a table and a simple query that pulls results from the table. Nothing too crazy. But, if I were to go in and change some of the data/values in the query results it will change the respective data in the table. I know that this cannot be right. What do I have to do to either prevent the ability to change query results and/or prevent any changes in the query from altering the original data in the table.

I have an MS Access accdb with linked SQL Server 2012 ODBC tables. I am working on a procedure to copy data from local tables to these linked tables (identical schema). I did a simple

Code:

DoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO linkedTable SELECT * FROM localTable"

I would like to copy the data in a bulk operation, or operations that I can execute programmatically.

Move Record To New Table After Data Change In Combo Box Value In Original Table.

Nov 24, 2006

Ok my problem is this......

I have a form with a field "Property Status" on it. It has 4 possible values -

"C - SHELTERED (with warden charge)";"H - SHELTERED (No warden charge)";"J - WHEELCHAIR SHELTERED (With warden charge)";"M - WHEELCHAIR SHELTERED (No warden charge)";"X - DISCONNECTED"

When the value "X - DISCONNECTED" is selected in the form I want the record to be removed from its existing table and sent to a new table which keeps all the "X - DISCONNECTED" records together.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. How would this be coded?
