Queries :: Appending Tables With Multivalue Field?
Nov 3, 2014
I have two tables "Tab_Issue_1" and "Tab_Issue_2". Tab_Issue_1 has two fields "Issue" and "AssignedTo". Tab_Issue_2 has the same fields. However, the "AssignedTo" is a multi-value field in both tables. I want to append data from Tab_Issue_1 into Tab_Issue_2. I use the following SQL but it pops up this message "An INSERT INTO query can not contain a multi-valued field".
[SQL]
INSERT INTO Tab_Issues_1 ( Title, AssignedTo )
SELECT Tab_Issues_2.Title, Tab_Issues_2.AssignedTo
FROM Tab_Issues_2;
[SQL]

I've been doing some reading on multivalue fields and it seems to be exactly what I'm looking for. My question: Is there a way to use the multivalue field without making it a lookup? I need the user to be able to put multiple values in a field but can't limit them to a list. The field that needs multiple values happens to be for SKU numbers from a large department store franchise.
One work around I've come up with is to have a pop up that asks for the separate sku numbers so they can be used for the value list each time, but then the user also would have to select those from the value list in order to enter it.... too many end user steps.
I want to avoid making 10-15 different fields each for SKU number, Item, and cost... I also need to avoid having to populate my db with the department store's full list of products...

I have a multivalue field containing values of A,B,C and D with primary IDs of 1,2,3 and 4 in that order.
If I was to run:
Code:
UPDATE Table
Set Table.Multivalue.Value = 1
WHERE Field 1 = "True" AND Field 2 = "True";
Then run
Code:
UPDATE Table
Set Table.Multivalue.Value = 2
WHERE Field 1 = "True" AND Field 2 = "True";
Will I have a Multivalue field as A,B or just B? I would like it to be A,B but I have my doubts as to whether this would work.

I have a form that looks up office names and will automatically populate a field called office number based upon their selection in the combo box. I have a submit button on click event set up to run a query.
Now, here's where I am running into issues: In this query, I need to pull selected columns of information based upon a multivalue lookup field. This multivalue lookup field is joined with the table that the values populate from.
The form will only have one value stored in the txt box field, and I need to be able to search for all records containing that one value.
This is what I have for code:
SELECT FilePlan.FPName, FilePlan.Description, FilePlan.[File Code], FilePlan.GRS, FilePlan.Schedule
FROM Offices INNER JOIN FilePlan ON Offices.[Office Number] = FilePlan.OfficeNumb.Value
WHERE (((FilePlan.OfficeNumb.Value) Like "*" & [Forms]![RetCutOff]![txtOffNumb] & "*"));
Do I need to string multiple queries together to make this work, or is it just not possible?

A have a query that selects a multivalue field. The query forms the record source for a subform. The text values in the multivalue field are displayed in the query, but when I save this and view the data in the subform datasheet view the values revert to the primary key values. They are 1,2,3,4 instead of the text values

I'm creating an automated system on access, basically it uploads client's files and analyses their data. The files will always be different, with the amount of fields changing and with different field names each time
One part of it, is appending new contacts to their data. This means records which we can add new contacts to, needs to be duplicated with the new contact placed at the end. So it needs to be like
Company Name New Contact Name
A
B
B Tom
B Harry
Because it's automated with different field names each time, the duplicating part is an issue. I can use the * rule which appends all fields, however this will not work in this case, if we are adding more than 1 new contact, the new contact will be duplicated rather than having 2 new different contacts.
Ideally I want rule saying, append all fields EXCEPT the fields where the new contacts are placed, but I don't think this is possible
I'm using Access 07 for this. Using a mix of VBA and SQL in the modules

Is there another field that can be used beside the lookup field in an Access table? I am currently using the lookup field as a multivalued lookup field and I am limited to the the things I can do with it when creating a report or a query on that field. Is there a similar field in Access 2010 that has the same look as a lookup field and allows for multiple values to be selected?

Here is my current table structure (I have omitted some fields from this example and have given some sample data in italics to make the table structure more clear.
tblEmployees
ID (autonumber) 3
EmployeeName John
EmployeePhone 555999555
EmployeeLocation New York
tblClients
ClientID (autonumber) 1 , 2 , 3
ClientName ABC Company , XYZ Company, PQR Company
fkeyLocationID
tblLocations
LocationID 1 , 2
Location New York , Chicago
tblEmployeeClients (junction table)
fkeyID 3
EmployeeClients (multivalued number) 1,2
The junction table tblEmployeeClients only stores ID of the Employee and in the second column (which is a multi-valued field), the ID of each of the clients the employee Supports.
I am trying to generate a report that lists say, EmployeeName alongside the clients supported by the Employee (listing the client location is not required, however, it would be good to know how to do that as well).
The report (for the example above), should look like this:
Name Clients Supported
John ABC Company, PQR Company
Currently, I am able to get :
John 1, 2 i.e the client ID for the clients that the employee supports instead of the corresponding company names.

I have a database which is working ok where i have a set of tasks in a table with a bunch of irrelevant fields. On creation of a task i assign users to those tasks into a multivalue field(this is all fine).
Using a query i can report to each user what tasks they are assigned to easily.
To make the database more complex i would now like to assign these users to a task and then allow them to assign there portion complete (but not the whole task complete) but i can not assign a bool variable to a .value (can i?).
My thoughts are my database is just not set up for this by using the multivalue field to hold the assigned users?

Hi Everyone
I have been working on an access 2003 database for four weeks now and have been asked to create a field in a table that allows a user to select mutliple entries from a list.
This information in this field of a table needs to be able to be queried and reported on in written and graphical reports.
I have tried and hit a brick wall any help with setting this up would be most appreciated.
Thanks
Mish

I would like to have the user select one or more values in a list box, and use those values as criteria in a query. Then the query will be used as a source for list boxes in another form based on the values of the previous selection.
Example:
User selects options 1, 3, and 4 from the list box on Form A. The query then sets the criteria to anything related to 1 OR 3 OR 4. Then in another form, Form B, all the data tied to option 1 is in its own list box, all the data tied to option 3 is in its own list box, and all data tied to option 4 is in its own list box.

I have a multivalue text field called "Groups" that is generated through a relationship with another table called "Comments". When I set this up I left the field as a text field when it should have been a number field, and now I can't use the database with sharepoint, because the field needs to be a number field.
My Question is there a way to convert it without loosing all my data, as there are over 5000 records?
My Table with the multivalue field is called "Contacts", the field is called "Groups".
I tried update and append queries but I must be doing something wrong....

I have 3 separate tables with the following fields: Year; Name of School; Emis No. (Primary Key); No. wrote; No. passed; Pass %. These tables were created in Excel and imported in Access.
I would like to do the following (see table below): 1. create a form that would allow me to view all the data per school in datasheet view and also allow me to enter new data annually; 2. create a new table where this information can be stored
.

Hello,
I have 1200 tables (precipitation data) that I need to aggregate into 1 table for summary and statistical operations. I need to retain each table's name: <month_year>. Is there a way to insert a column with the source table title while I am appending? Or should I go about this in a completely different way?
Thanks for your thoughts,
MB

Hello,
I have two auto-numbered tables, each with one-to-many relationships with a couple of other tables.
The two auto-numbered tables have identical column properties, as do the tables each are linked to.
How can I set up an append query to append records from one of these tables into the other, but ensure that all of the links stay intact? (Right now, the two tables duplicate ID numbers.)
I hope this makes sense. Can anyone assist?
Thanks in advance.

Hi
Firstly let me thankyou for your help because I feel this may be a difficult question.
I have a stock control db that records transactions through purchase orders, which allocates each line item (product) in a purchase order to an employee and a project it is destined for. I have three tables, one for purchase orders, one for transactions and one for products.
I then have a seperate table for stock in and out with a two other look ups for projects and employees.
Now sometimes a product may become a stock item as it is in surplus and not used for the project.
My problem is how do I re-allocate the product as a stock item then when it is used allocated it to another project.
Basically we use an internal unique number for each purchase order and i have a query set up that will recall each product in a purchase order. The reason for this is to save time updating goods recieved when an order turns up as i call all the item in a purchase order in one go rather than going to each product one at a time to update.
I think the db may be to advanced in the set up and feel a restructure of the db is the only solution but hopefully i not. I am no means an advanced user buit have done ok so far in seeting this db up e.g. my knowledge of vba is limited etc.
This has only just come up in what is needed so it is an after thought, however is very important for the operation of the db as a stock control system.
All advice much appreciated in advance.

I have a linked ODBC table in my database that contains data like this -
Code:
Task Serial CrewAmount
00_INSTALL ENGINE INTO PEDESTAL STAND 707308AS30.2
00_INSTALL ENGINE INTO PEDESTAL STAND 707308OMB0.2
01_BORESCOPE INSPECTION 706496AS114.24
01_BORESCOPE INSPECTION 706496AS223.24
[Code] .....
What I would like to do is remove the duplicate values for the Task field, but show how much time each Crew has spent on each Task per Serial. The end result would look like this -
Code:
Task SerialAS1AS2AS3OMAOMB
01_BORESCOPE INSPECTION 70649614.2423.2428.78
00_INSTALL ENGINE INTO PEDESTAL STAND 7073080.20.2
01_INSTALL OIL TANK 7073085.67
[Code] ....
What is the best way to achieve this result? I've played around with Append queries, union queries etc, but nothing seems to give me the result I'm after.

I use Cognos to pull raw data from Oracle. I take this data and put it into Access 2010 tables to then run queries. Because the people creating the data in Oracle are often slow, I run back data to catch missed information, typically two months. For October, for example, I'll run October and also September and August.While I have new data, I also have a great deal of duplicate data. How can I ensure that I append only the new data and exclude the duplicate data?

I'm fairly new to Access, but have set up a database containing 8 normalized tables. I would like to know if it's possible to update all those tables by importing an Excel file into each table, or importing the Excel file into one Access table and then appending that table to those 8 tables. AND STILL MAINTAIN THE RELATIONSHIPS. The Help directory only talks about importing or appending into one table.

I have a table in MS Access 2010 that is a link to an external data file in .csv format. I assumed that it was not possible to append data to a linked table until recently. I appended 3 records to the linked table and discovered that the 3 records were appended to the table and the external data file it was linked to.
What am I missing ?
