Queries :: Adding Expression As A Criteria?
Sep 8, 2014
I have a query I'm working with that finds data that changes, calculates the numbers, then prints a result in another column. The problem is that if I don't have any changes, then I have a blank result. Normally this wouldn't be a problem, but I'm making reports available to other users and would like this populated.
What seems simplest is to add an expression in the criteria field for the column that displays data after crunching numbers. Since this only has a display if something has changed, then I need an expression added if there is no data. Can I add something like an IsNull expression to display the results from another column in the same table? The data will end up being redundant, but I'm ok with that for now. the report should probably have the expression, but the column is already here in this table.

Hi all,
I need to be able to add x months to a given date which I'm using in a criteria expression. I've figured out that I can just add y number of days, but the answers aren't quite accurate across different ranges of months.
I'm after something like
<[BeginDate] And >([BeginDate]+[3months])
but I haven't turned up anything useful in an hour of googling - finding it difficult to define what I want in search engine terms.
Cheers,
Alex

I am using the following expression in access 2007
=DSum("[jqty]","SHIP","[jprod#] = '" & [pn] & "'")
I need to add a date range criteria to this expression that looks at the field [expr1] and sums anything between the two selected dates.

I'm a little new to Access but I'm trying to create an IIf Expression:
iif ( condition, value_if_true, value_if_false )
Mine is: Au_ppb: IIf([Element]="Au" And [Units]="ppb",[Result],Null)
I need to have three criteria's (each looking into a different column). I can get two criterias but not three:
[Element]="Au" And [Units]="ppb"
When I add in the third (And [Priority]="12") it doesn't work .
Also, I need to have about 6 columns with similar IIF statements in the one query in my query and if a row has Null for all then I don't want it visible however if I make the Criteria "Is not Null" on one column or on all it comes up with no results.

How to write an expression/criteria in a query that will return only ID numbers with alpha numeric values. Example: My Id field contains both numeric 479621, 680530 and alpha numeric 132NAV100, 174NAV26a values. I want to run the query to return only the alpha numeric values.
I do not know SQL nor VBA.

I have a query that uses two criteria from a user input form. On the form, the user would input a customers last name and use a dropdown list (based on a table 30,60,90,120,365 days) to select how many days previous they want to search. Unfortunately there is something that I'm over looking and can't figure out.
Let's say I have multiple records that match the following criteria: Last name "James", days since contracted all less than 30 days. For some reason when I put in "James" as the last name in my form and select "30" from the droplist, it only lists the most current one which is zero days. Even if I select "60" from the droplist, it still only shows the zero day contract.
If I go back and select "90" from the droplist is brings up 3 - 3 day old contracts and my 1 zero day old contract. If I select 120, it picks up another contract that is 4 days old. If I select 365 it picks up a couple more, but still not everything. Here is my SQL code.
Code:
SELECT tblAllData.[F&I Manager], tblAllData.[Reviewing BOA], tblAllData.Date,
tblAllData.[Stock#], tblAllData.[Deal Date], tblAllData.[Cust First Name], tblAllData.[Cust Last Name],
Round(DateDiff("d",[deal date],Now()))/1 AS Days, tblAllData.[Bank Name],
[Code] ....

I am trying to count the amount of records that were created and closed for last month but I am having problems inserting the correct criteria along with the DCOUNT syntax. DCount("*","obsvnofilterqry","(Date_Closed)=MONTH( Date())").Works fine but figuring out how to get the amount of Date_Closed for last month is proving tricky.

I'm trying to create an query that has two separate expression in it and a date selection criteria. The first expression is,
Expr1: DateDiff("s", [Arrival Time 1],[Departure Time 1])/3600
and the second is,
Expr2: IIf([Expr1]>[Hours Per Day],[Expr1]-[Hours Per Day]
When I run this query it asks me for the date (which is fine) but then it also pops up a box asking for "Expr1". How can I get "Expr2" to use the value returned from "Expr1"?

I have a query which runs fine until I set a criteria (of True) in the field
Code:
chase_it: prevwd([practice_bacs_submission_date])<Date()
So without the criteria, I have
Code:
SELECT prevwd([practice_bacs_submission_date])<Date() AS chase_it, practice_bacs.practice_bacs_submission_date
FROM practice_bacs
WHERE (((practice_bacs.practice_bacs_submission_date)>#1/31/2013#));
and in the query results I see 0 and -1 as expected for the 'chase_it' expression BUT When I add True (or -1, or 0) as a criteria for 'chase_it', I get the "Data type mismatch in criteria expression" error.So the sql that fails is
Code:
SELECT prevwd([practice_bacs_submission_date])<Date() AS chase_it, practice_bacs.practice_bacs_submission_date
FROM practice_bacs
WHERE (((prevwd([practice_bacs_submission_date])<Date())=True) AND ((practice_bacs.practice_bacs_submission_date)>#1/31/2013#));
In case it's relevant, my function prevwd is:
Code:
Function prevwd(dt As Date) As Date
10 On Error GoTo prevwd_Error
20 dt = dt - 1
30 While Weekday([dt]) = 1 Or Weekday([dt]) = 7 Or IsBankHoliday(dt)
[code]...
and this function is used extensively and always works perfectly. I have tried using DateAdd instead of dt = dt - 1, but that made no difference.

I have this linked table query from a OBDC and I need to be able to filter out specific dates in that query. The dates in the table were in text format and I converted the dates using the CDate function. I wanted to filter the query to a single date and always I get the Datatype mismatch in criteria expression error.
However, filtering dates does work only when there are other specifications in the criteria fields (e.g. if I specify a date and and name). My SQL code in error looks like this:
SELECT
purch_hist.PUITM AS ITEM,
purch_hist.PUPO AS PO,
purch_hist.PUQTY AS QTY_RECEIVED,
CDate([purch_hist.PURDT]) AS RECEIPT_DATE,
itmcnt.ITBYR AS BUYER,
purch_hist.PUCST AS UNIT_COST,
vendor.NVNO AS VENDOR NO,
[code]...
This query works fine with a non converted date field, however the dates I need are in text format and need to be converted since I do not have permissions to edit the tables.

I am working on a fairly ancient manufacturing database that identifies items using a combination of letters and numbers. The usual format is to have a letter (which suggests something about the item type) followed by a sequence of numbers.
I am trying to write a query that looks up all the records beginning with a prefix or arbitrary length, strips away the text, and finds the highest number.
Code:
SELECT Right(LocalID,Len(LocalID) - 1) As IDSuffix
FROM tblItemIDCrossReference
WHERE Left(LocalID,1) = 'T' AND IsNumeric(Right(LocalID,Len(LocalID) - 1)=True)
This query produces the error given in the title of this thread, whilst the following works:
Code:
SELECT Right(LocalID,Len(LocalID) - 1) As IDSuffix
FROM tblItemIDCrossReference
WHERE Left(LocalID,1) = 'T' AND IsNumeric(Right(LocalID,5)=True)
This related query also works and shows a load of -1s and 0s correctly
Code:
SELECT Right(LocalID,Len(LocalID) - 1) As IDSuffix,
IsNumeric(Right(LocalID,Len(LocalID) - 1)=True) As Alias
FROM tblItemIDCrossReference
WHERE Left(LocalID,1) = 'T' AND
But once again shows the error message when I try to filter the field Alias to -1 or 0 only through the right-click menu.I have tried piping Len(LocalID)-1 through CLng, CInt, Int, CDbl and CSng; this changes the error to 'Invalid Use Of Null' I have also tried removing the '=True' from the IsNumeric() term.

I have an update query for tGLCashAccount where it adds a value from another table with the BeginningBalance to arrive at CurrentBalance.
Here's what it looks like in design view:
Field: CurrentBalance
Table: tGLCashAcct
Update to: [tMakeNewCashBal].[TotalPrice]+[tGLCashAcct].[BeginningBalance]
Here is SQL code:
UPDATE tGLCashAcct, tMakeNewCashBal SET tGLCashAcct.CurrentBalance = [tMakeNewCashBal].[TotalPrice]+[tGLCashAcct].[BeginningBalance]
WHERE (((tGLCashAcct.GLCashAcctID)="102"));
I get the error: data type mismatch in criteria expression when I run it.

I have one datatable and i have to list the duplicates from it based on different criterias. It contains invoices, we would like to avoid duplicated payments.I'm struggling with a query. Basically i have a working one, i have to add one more criteria to filter out a couple of rows where the text column is "freight", but anyhow i have tried, it's not working. Without that one line where the not equal is, it's working as it should, when i'm adding that line it ruturns the same as before, but it should give me 108 less lines. The below one is based on an other query result called Duplicates_Rule1.Here is the query:
Code:
SELECT * FROM Duplicates_Rule1
WHERE (((Duplicates_Rule1.BSEG_DocumentNo) In (SELECT [BSEG_DocumentNo] FROM [Duplicates_Rule1] As Tmp
GROUP BY [BSEG_DocumentNo]
HAVING Count(*)=1 ))
AND (Duplicates_Rule1.Check) Is Null)
and (Duplicates_Rule1.BSAK_Text <> "FREIGHT")
ORDER BY Duplicates_Rule1.BSEG_DocumentNo;

Currently, I am using the following code to add criterias to a Query before I run it:
Code:
qdf.SQL = "SELECT * from [Offshore_Projects] WHERE [Business Field].Value = " & Tall
Unfortunately, I struggle with adding additional criterias for example something like this:
Code:
qdf.SQL = "SELECT * from [Offshore_Projects] WHERE [Business Field].Value = 3" AND [Offshore_Projects] WHERE [Location] = ""Longyearbyen"""

I've got two tables in my Access 2010 database - both are identical in structure, the difference being one (Dove) contains old data and the other (Dove Data File) contains updated data. The primary key for these tables is "TowerBase".
I want to use an update query to update only the changes from the Dove Data File table into the Dove table - but for certain records only.
I've managed so far to get a query which displays only records that have changed in a particular field (Bells). Up to here I think is all good...
SELECT [Dove Data File].*
FROM [Dove Data File] INNER JOIN Dove ON [Dove Data File].TowerBase = Dove.TowerBase
WHERE (((Dove.Inactive)<>True) AND ((Exists (SELECT NULL
FROM Dove
WHERE [Dove Data File].TowerBase = Dove.TowerBase
AND [Dove Data File].Bells <> Dove.Bells))=True));
But now I want to add in criteria and this is the bit I'm struggling with. I need this query to now display only records where there is no associated record in my Visit Dates table. In other words, the Visit Dates table has the "TowerBase" ID along with a visit date. These records I do not want to see in the query, as I don't want to update any changes for these from the Dove Data File table to the Dove table.

I Have a field that I need to manipulate the data in.
sample data follows [Field9]:
1 to 1 (cover page)
1 to 3 (no cover page)
etc..
this field identifies number of fax pages sent, eg
“1 to 1 (cover page)” is actually 2 pages, an attachment plus cover page
“1 to 3 (no cover page)” is actually 3 pages, 3 page attachment without cover page
What I want is just the total number of pages in this field.
I have written two expression that dissects the field in two, left hand side gives me a numeric number of attachments and right hand side a numeric value for the existence of a cover page or not.
Expr1: Mid([Field9],6,1)
Expr2: IIf(Right([Field9],15)="(no cover page)","0","1")
Each individual expression seems to do the right thing, but I have been unable to figure out how to add Expr1 and Expr2 to give me total pages.
Any help would be appreciated

Hi all..
Here is the expression:
ChildName: [tblChildren_LName] & ", " & [tblChildren_FName] (also, in the tblMain I have employeeNum, LName, FName.... )hence drawing the names from the tblChildren..
I have it in a query, I am just trying to make the last and first name a field for a report. But when I run the query I am asked: enter Parameter value tblChidren_LName and tblChildren_FName.
In the query I have two tables
tblMain and tblChildren. EntryNumber is the PK.
The same expression works in an another query that I have...but for some reason it is not working in this one...

Hi all, I wonder if anyone can help me? What I am trying to do is relativley simple but I am just having a problem executing the expression.
I have a search form which returns the list of results in a subform, in the search form (attached), there is a field which is to bring back results for contracts due in X amount of days, where the user inputs X. In the query results I only want this field to queried on if something is actually typed into the field. The field in the query I am writing this under is called [RenDate]. I have written a criteria expression in my query as follows, but am getting no results:
IIf(IsNull([Forms]![F Search]![days for renewal]),"",[RenDate] Between Date() And Date()+[Forms]![F Search]![days for renewal])
Everything else is working fine with this form/query. If anyone could help or advise on my expression it would be much appreciated.
Many thanks
Stuart :)

For example, 73.38% + .5..Which will equal in the text box: 73.88%

I have a grades_table with data regarding a grade a person gets.
It contains like Name, Date, Grade, Grader_Name, Month, Year...
I have another table (grader_table) that contains the Grader_Name, and how many Grades that grader needs done in a given month (i'm using two numbers to indicate month and year).
What I would like to do is I have a form where all info for the grades_table is entered. When the query is run, I would like to have the month and Year field use the date given to auto fill numbers.
So I picture it as like 6/5/07 is given, so the query records the date, but also stores the 5 and 7 in other columns. I tried this in my query for i think its title - Month: Month([Date]) but it says there one too many ")".
I have a feeling I may also need help with the actual retrieval of a months score since it will cross tables, but this is the big question for now. Any help is appreciated.

3 Month Date: DateAdd("m",+3,[Current Date])
If I remove sorting the query works fine. When I add sorting to this column in the query design grid, I get the error message.
Any ideas?
