I'm trying to build a query that will count items in a text field.
How do I do this. I know the statement should read something like this - SELECT COUNT([fieldname]) FROM [tablename] WHERE [fieldname]=yes;
Is this statement correct and where do I place it? Does it go in that specific column. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
Can anyone tell me how to count (sum) text fields. My current query will search for:
1) Name
2) Ticket Number (ww*, beginning of one type of ticket)
And it works fine except that after running the query I have to manually add up how many of the ww tickets each person wrote. Is there a way to make it change the ww* tickets to a number, like 1, so that it can be added up or to add up by the persons name how many tickets they wrote. I'm using Access 2000.
Thanks
I have a table with four columns, each textural - boiler type, insulation type, build type, survey type. Of each coumn there are only a handful of options to select e.g five types of boiiler etc, 6 types of insulation etc. I'm trying to build a query whereby these data are summarised thus: Numbers of each boiler type, numbers of each insulation type etc. I've been messin around with 'counts' and 'sums' but my ultra-novice skills are lame here. Help!
View 2 Replies View RelatedWise one, I have looked for this throughout the forum but could not fiend an answer. Could you help? I have found a little script to display the number of characters entered into a text box so at to warn the user if they are getting close to the maximum number of characters allowed.
See http://www.databasedev.co.uk/counting_characters.html
I cannot get it to work. The problem is that I can only enter 1 character. It counts it but then highlights the character I just typed. I then have to click next to it to input the next character. Any Ideas?
Cheers,

From there I want to be able to keep a running total for each selection in separate textboxes.
Any ideas will be grealty appreciated.
Thanking in advance,

Dear all:
I need to count a specific expression in a text field in a table. I desire totals that says "copies" which is selected from a combo box. The total appears in a separate text box. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can count a non-number field?
Many thanks,
Dion
Heelo all:

I am working on a report that has a text field with "YES" or "NO" in it. This is not a yes/no field. Is there a way to count the number of "YES"'s and "NO"'s? There will also be some records that will not have anything listed. See example below.
Failed Patients
Item 1 - YES
Item 2 - NO
ITEM 3 - NO
ITEM 4 -
ITEM 5 - YES
ITEM 6 -
Total Failed Patients - 4
I've asked this in a previous post but only got confused. Please forgive me, I'm a newbie at this. I have a table that I need to count a text field.
Table Name: ACE/ARB Table
Field Name: MR# (houses a 8 digit patient number)
Field Name: Failed Patient (houses a "TEXT" field with possible entries of "YES" "NO" or left blank.
Each MR# may have may different entries such as:
MR# 12345678 Failed Patient: YES
MR# 12345678 Failed Patient: NO
MR# 12345678 Failed Patient: NO
MR# 12345678 Failed Patient: (blank)
MR# 87654321 Failed Patient: NO
MR# 87654321 Failed Patient: YES
I need my report to count distinct MR#'s:
From the example above, I would need my report to show/count "2" medical records.
Any help on this would be GREATLY appreciated, I'm going crazy here. Also, if any suggestion has to do with SQL do I type what you would send me directly into the SQL statement from a query?
Hi does anybody know how to count all the fields on a record that have a value? Therefore not counting the fields with a null value. Im sure it has something to do with the TotalData expression. Thanks.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have been pulling my hair out over a query application and I'm looking for some help...
For instance, I have a table with [PrimaryName], [SecondaryName] and [JobDate]. I want a query that will display if there is more than one occurrence of the same name in either name field on the same date.
If it were just one field I could do this using GROUP BY and HAVING but because I need to check both name fields I'm stumped. I tried a union query but that seems to group multiple occurrences together as one entry.
Any help is appreciated.
I run a Query to determine how many employees attended a meeting, showing the number of years they have worked at the company.
(Example output of query)
Employee Name Years with Company
John Doe 3
Jane Smith 1
Bill Doe 3
Rick Mills 1
How do I count the number of people with each range or particular number of years with company? For example:
2 employees have 1 year with company
2 employees have 3 years with company
Hi
I am currently creating a report form which only calculates
fields/columns in my main table. However I am currently struggling
counting text fields and checked fields as well as data fields in this
table.
I want it to count all the "yes" checked fields in my main table targeting
another column's data e.g I've got column with Category listed as 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.
Along with this there is a check box to say that a job was completed under cat. 1,
2, 3, 4 or 5.
I have managed to get the formula to cound all checked boxes in the databases,
but what about targeting only say category 1's checked boxes or category 2's checked
boxes. I need to work out %'s from these individual totals as well.
Any suggestions on this would be great!

I have 7 combos, which for the most part set the value in another field - however, there are two values in the combo that do not have a value attached - one is AH, the other is SK. I have two textboxes (one for AH, one for SK) that I wish to have a count (preferably running) of how many times each of these values appears in the seven combo boxes.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a table, which is being populated by a number of users. The table has 211 rows (customer field - this is a fixed amount) and there are 5 other columns (information which might or might not be available for that customer) which are all yes/no fields. Each row may could have any combination of ticks in those 5 columns.
I have a form to fill out this information, but now I need to use the data.
I'm trying to create one query which counts how many of each field are populated. I need it to give me the total of each of the "information" columns, and another to give me a list of all of the customers which have at least one of the information columns ticked.
I will also need to be able to see how many customers have all of the information columns ticked, and how many have none.
Hello there !
I had a few problems yesterday with Dcount in a text box in a form but with your help I cracked it
Below is the function I used
=DCount("[PFP Number]","MAIN Table Do not delete","[PFP Number] = '" & [PFP Number] & "'")
The form is based on a table called Invoice PFPs
The Table contains a list of PFP Numbers (bit like part numbers) there are no duplicates in this table
I also have a "Main Table do not delete" with 26000 claims in it each of which has a PFP Number.
The form has a text box in that matchs the PFP Number in the form with the same PFP Number in the MAIN Table and counts them. his works fine with the above function
What I now need is it to count if the PFP Number matchs only if the date specifyed in the function matchs the claim process date (e.g 01-Dec-06 or 01-Jan-07 etc..) in the Main Table
Hope this makes sense ?
Hiya
This is my first post here, but I've two questions so I'll divide it into two threads.
Normally I can google these to help find the answers but a bit of a loss at this one, probably beginners stuff to some of you.
Heres a link to the database below
http://casp.gamecommunity.co.uk/database.gif
Total count is easy: =Count(tblMain!ID1)
What I want to do is count the amount of records for each individual month of the current year so I don't have to change the year date everytime a new year comes round. As soon as the next year comes around they all reset to 0.
The clever way would be to count the records for the current month -1 current month -2 etc and automatically update the month labels but I think that would be getting a bit comlicated.
Thanks in advance for any help. :)
Hi
I would like to count number of items witin a text field,
but breaking it down identifying the different items within the
text field.
e.g.
Got a field with fruits listed. Now I am identifying the fruit but want
to know how many rotten fruit there was for each specified fruit.
At the moment my query is by date and the fruit including the column
specifying if the fruit is rotten or not. But there is 3 options in the last
column. How can I count this last column to count how many of these
3 options there are for each fruit in my report?
Please let me know if this makes any sense or not otherwise I will try to explain
it a little bit better.
I have a report that is pulling data from a query and on the report, i have a controlled field that is supposed to count only data where a field says "no". Here is the string.
=Sum(IIf([Caller Used Resources]="No",1,0))
when i run the report i get the four results that say no, but i also get a blank field counting the times when this field is blank. If this field is blank, i don't want it to show anything.
I've got a table with 23 columns. Column 1 is the ID row which has a unique client ID in it. Then we've got a column called 1st_Reason and one that goes with it called 1st_Transfer_Date. This pair repeats for 2 through 10. Each of the Reason columns can have a set value, for example "First Processor".
What I need to do is create a date with months on the Y axis and the 5 different reasons on the X axis. I need to count the number of "First Processor" across all 10 Reason columns for each month. I would need to repeat that for each other reason type, but if I can get one to work I can simply change the reason type.
Here's what I'm using to count May's total:
Code:
=Sum(IIf([Current_Reason]="First Processor" And [Current_Processor_Transfer] Between #4/30/2013#
And #6/1/2013#,1,IIf([1st_Reason]="First Processor" And [1st_Transfer_Date] Between #4/30/2013#
And #6/1/2013#,1,0)))+(IIf([2nd_Reason]="First Processor" And [2nd_Transfer_Date] Between #4/30/2013#
And #6/1/2013#,1,IIf([3rd_Reason]="First Processor" And [3rd_Transfer_Date] Between #4/30/2013#
[Code] .....
I get wildly inconsistent results. On one of the types, it's only counting where it's the 1st_Reason. Some of the others return the same value regardless of which month I have selected.
I have a question regarding counting of text values base on their status and using that result to a calculation.
Say, I have a table of Demand of Positions, wherein, I have a specific Job Title for a certain Department that have number of workers needed (demand quantity) and a table of candidates for that job title and their status, say, Arrived, Visa Processing, Visa Applied, Visa Issued, and With Ticket.
What I would want is to make a summary out of the two tables, where the query will count how many candidates are there in that specific job title and have a field of status say, field of Count of Arrived, Count of Visa Processing and etc., and a field where I can add all of the count of candidates per status and deduct the result to the demand quantity where that field would be named Balance.
The problem is that the status varies on every candidate on that specific job title because the status field is used to track the progress of each candidate and this scenario will make the query blank because there would be no such record due to their status.
I tried making a summary following my requirement and you will see that in the attached file together with the SQL code of that query that the balance field value is blank.
Suppose we have a report that outlines several fields, one field shows the City. In the report, this week, we see 10 records "New York", 8 records "Houston", 7 records "London", 3 records "Paris" and so on.
Next week's report outlines different cities and different number of records. I need to have in the report footer a "recapitulation" , a field that would say :
New York 10
Houston 8
London 7
Paris 3
Total 28
Next week cities and number of records might not be the same, we may have
Tokyo 12
Singapore 14
New York 6
London 7
Can i make my report in that way that it will count the values without using VBA ? I tried the count values option but it counts the overall report, does not take into consideration the different values.
Suppose I have a table with a variety of fields; one autonumber, some text fields and some date fields.
I need code to calculate the number of fields that are NOT date fields and then code to count how many of those fields (the ones that are not date fields) have data in them.
Following is the code to count how many fields in a table had data and this works well, but now I need to find a way to ignore the date fields. How can this code be modified to do the same but ignore the date fields?
Code:
Public Function PercentCompleted(Table As String, IDProject As Long, TotalFields As Single) As Double
Dim sampO As DAO.Recordset, iCtr As Long, strSQL As String, Percent As Double
'Takes the fields based on the projectID
strSQL = "SELECT *" & _
"FROM " & Table & " WHERE IDProject = " & IDProject
Set sampO = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset(strSQL)
[code]....
how can i disable a textfield or two in a form when the textbox is unchecked also how do i add a default value for it while the textbox itself is disabled, can i get away with it by adding a default value on the textbox?
View 14 Replies View RelatedI have a report due the first of each week in which I need the cases open and cases closed for the previous week, the week two weeks prior and the 2007 and 2006 year to date on two different types of cases. I have a case management table with a field for Type of Case, date assigned and date closed that I uses in my queries. Presently I have two query, one that generates only Type 1 cases from the Case Management Table and another for Type 2. I then use the Type 1 Query in another query that limits the results for Type 1 cases to those opened last week, one for those open two weeks ago, one for 2006 YTD and one for 2007 YTD. In these 4 queries I have one field [Type of Cases] and I have the query count. I then do this for Type 2 cases and then go through the whole process to do Closed Cases. All my queries have criteria to automatically filter the dates to the time periods mentioned above. I then have one report query that I put all the number in for my report. This query has 16 fields with the numbers for each period, last week open and closed, 2 weeks open and closed, etc. I then generated a report that takes these numbers from my report query and puts it in a report format automatically. As you can imagine this takes some time to go through each query to generate these numbers, so I was wondering how I may do this differently. Also, I have experienced a problem when a field produces no records I get a blank sceen with nothing under the Count of column and get the same thing for my report. How can I fix this.
