Select First 2 Characters
May 1, 2008Hi,
I am trying to use a query to select the first two characters from a field I have created in a form. I would then like to use these 2 letters to filter out results in the query.
For example:
I have a number of sections in a document (1a - TAKE OFF, 1b - LANDING, 1c - STATIC etc.) which include associative chapters (1a.Contents, 1a.Introduction etc.).
From a combo box I select the section (i.e. 1a - TAKE OFF), I then want to filter out all the chapters in the associative section (i.e. 1a.Contents, 1a.Introduction etc) by using the first two characters of this combo box in the query.....
I hope this makes sense!!!
Cheers

Queries :: Select Query To Gather Results Of Other Select Queries
May 11, 2014I'm fairly new to Access. 's various select queries containing useful and useless results. I want to create a select query that will pick out all the useful figures into a 1 row table that can then be pasted into Excel.
e.g Existing Select Query 1 returns 1 row showing Average Age, Average Price, Total rainfall
Existing Select Query 2 returns 1 row showing Average Weight, Average Salary, Total snowfall
Existing Select Query 3 returns *2* rows: It returns Distance from London, Hours daylight and population for Town A and Town B
I want a select query that returns 1 row showing (6 items):
Total rainfall, Total snowfall, Town A Distance from London, Town A Population, Town B Distance from London, Town B Population.
I've been able to handle getting Total rainfall and Total snowfall. But I cant figure out how to get Town A Distance from London, Town A Population, Town B Distance from London, Town B Population to appear in the same row of the same query results as Total rainfall, Total snowfall.

View 5 Replies View RelatedQueries :: Replace 2 Characters In String With 0s
Dec 8, 2014I'm familiar with writing a replace query to replace characters or strings but what I'm trying to do this time is a bit unique to me. I have a string of numbers that will either be 8 or 9 digits in length. The first 1 or 2 digits will be the State code (1-50 hence the discrepancy in number of total digits), then a 2 digit agency code, then the last 5 digits are a producer code. What I need to do is change the 2 digits for the agency part both to 0. So basically characters 6 and 7 if you're counting from the right. To me it feels like I'm trying to do it backwards so I'm having a hard time writing it.

Mar 28, 2014I have a table with acct numbers of various lengths, ie:
246

36895
352119

I need to run a query so that all of the acct numbers are 8 characters long with zeros as placeholders in front of the actual acct numbers, ie:

I tried using the expression NewAcctNo: 00000000+[AcctNo], but that did not fix the problem.
Queries :: Checking For Special Characters In Descriptions
Mar 12, 2015I want my to detect special characters in my descriptions that are not found on keyboard and display as error.
Tried using the following
Description check: IIf([Common Description] Is Null Or [Common Description] Not Like "*[!a-z0-9@=.^_$%!#&'`(){|}*?~[]/-]*" And [Description Local] Is Null Or [Description Local] Not Like "*[!a-z0-9@=.^_$%!#&'`(){|}*?~[]/-]*","<<Error Desc>>","OK")
but when i tested it using some data, it shows all as <<Error Desc>>
some of the special characters i want to check for are βuΩ etc.
So if my description contains characters that are not: a-z OR 0-9 or any of the following ~!@#$%^&*()_+=-`][';/.,<>?:"{}|~
it will return <<Error Desc>>
Queries :: Left Function With 2 Static Characters

Feb 6, 2014I have been downloading .csv files from a construction website that we use to following projects as they develop. I import the file into Excel and then want to bring it into my database. The issue is with two fields I have that are numeric, however, when downloaded into Excel, the information in the two fields now have an (')added to the beginning and end of the string, i.e. and the second field has an (') and (-) to the data.
'201400409710'
'201300697683'
The second field is a zipcode field that comes in like this:
'14063-1127'
'14222-1004'
I would like to design a query to strip the ' from each field as well as the (-) in the zipcode field.If I have to write 2 separate queries that is fine.

Is there any other way to group the model numbers once the 1st 6 characters are identical (the rest is ignored)?

Queries :: Removing Special Characters Where Original Data Length Varies
Mar 1, 2014I thought I had solved my initial problem of removing the apostrophe character for each zip code field. Most of the fields have data that reads '12345-1234'. I want to remove each (') character and the "-1234" so I end up with a zipcode of 12345.
I created 2 queries for this process. I first run a query with the following statement "Left([ZIP],Len([ZIP])-6)". That gets rid of the "-1234' ".
The I run the second query with this statement "Right([ZIP],Len([ZIP])-6)".
These 2 queries work perfectly if the original zipcode is " '12345-1234' ", but if it is " '12345' ", the entire zipcode is deleted.
I have attached 3 (.jpg)'s to show you what I am talking about.

View 1 Replies View RelatedQueries :: Update Command Multiple Tables Using IIF
Aug 10, 2013I am writing a sql to assign students to each section of a course. The first student would be in the first section and the second student in the second section.
The ClassParam table gives the number of sections for the course and the last period that was assigned.
The Classes table gives the class key number by class name and section number.
The student has the name of class they want to take and I want to move the class section number into the Choice1 field.
The IIF statement seems to work but all of the students are getting the 1st session of the class put into the choice1 field.
UPDATE Students, ClassParam, Classes SET Students.Choice1 = Classes.ClassID,
ClassParam.PeriodAssigned = IIf([ClassParam]![PeriodAssigned]>=[ClassParam]![NumOfSections],1,
[ClassParam]![PeriodAssigned]+1)
WHERE ((([Students]![FirstChoice])=[Classes].[ClassName] And ([Students]![FirstChoice]) Is Not Null And ([Students]![FirstChoice])<>"") AND (([ClassParam]![PeriodAssigned])=[Classes].[SectionNumber]) AND (([Classes]![ClassName])=[ClassParam].[ClassName]) AND ((ClassParam.ClassName)=[Students]![FirstChoice]));
Queries :: Cannot Emulate Saved Query With VBA (CurrentDB Command)
Dec 3, 2014My issue is about a saved query which I would like to emulated with VBA.
The whole idea is to update a set of a table's fields based in the status of a control at a form; when the condition is met, the query takes the value of another field for doing the updates.
The original saved query is:
UPDATE EntradaPatiosDetalle SET EntradaPatiosDetalle.precio = IIf([Forms]![EntradaPatios]![patioCheckBox]=True,[precio_patio],[precio_pyme])
WHERE (((EntradaPatiosDetalle.idEntrada)=[Forms]![EntradaPatios]![idEntrada]));
The closest approach I can get to at VBA (which fails ), is:
CurrentDb.Execute "UPDATE EntradaPatiosDetalle SET [precio] = " & IIf([Forms]![EntradaPatios]![patioCheckBox] = True, [precio_patio], [precio_pyme]) & ", [mayoreoCheckBox] = Null WHERE [idEntrada] = " & Me.idEntrada
I'm sure that the problem is at the code marked in bold..
