Queries :: Counting Text Values Based On Their Status
Jan 25, 2015
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.
My database has a text field "Status" where the text is either, A, W, C. There is a form to update this field; currently it uses a standard Access created text field. The users want a checkbox which will show up as checked when the status is W, if the status is anything else, the checkbox will be blank. If the user clicks the checkbox within the form the status will be changed to W.
If [table.status] = 'W' then checkbox = 0 else checkbox = -1
I am using an existing database which allows my company to track claims information. One report my supervisor has asked for is a table which shows the counts of each kind of event occurring at a district level by department. For example, the classifications are injury classes like FSA, so I need to design a report which says facility a has 3 fsa's in the Wireline department in a table format. I have been looking into union queries as suggested by other sites but nothing seems to work. My labels are District, Analysis Code and Department.
I have a table that has two columns "Nationality" and "Gender". I wanted to run a query that will Group the nationality and then split the gender column into two columns and after that it will count both gender columns for each nationality. When I posted this question in "Reports" section I got the suggestion to use the SELECT COUNT in SQL. It worked but only for nationality. I couldn't get it work for the Gender column. I searched alot and the only thing I got was the SQL function to split data from one column into two but that also didn't serve the purpose (check the link to see why: [URL]) At last, I went on to create a cross tab query. Selected Nationality as Row header, Gender as Column header and Customer ID as calculation point. And there I got the result I needed. The SQL Code looks like this:
Code: TRANSFORM Count(Register.[Customer ID]) AS [CountOfCustomer ID] SELECT Register.National, Count(Register.[Customer ID]) AS [Total Of Customer ID] FROM Register GROUP BY Register.National PIVOT Register.P_Gender;
I'm using Access 2010. I need to calculate a score based on values selected in a table by looking up corresponding values in other tables. I have a "Project" form to create new entries into the Project table (see Table 1). When I create a new project record, I will select values for the Payback and Need fields by selecting options from a list. The Payback list is pointed at Table 2 and the Need list is pointed at Table 3. In the below example, I created the "ABC" project and selected "1 year" for the Payback field and "Repair" for the Need field. Pretty simple.
Now that I have the "ABC" project loaded to my Project table, I'd like to create a report that will show a "score" for this project. The score should be calculated as follows: Payback Impact + Need Impact. In this example, the score should be 30 (Payback Impact of 20 + Need Impact of 10).
In a form is there a way to change sort order based on which field is active?
I'm using a Split Form which gives me the ability to sort by clicking on the header name ans selecting sort. This slowing things done since my workload is heavy.
I'm trying to create a report eventually, however, I need to get my query set up.
My report should look like the following when complete.
Timeframe (mth,qtr,year) # of Total Projects Completed - regardless of status # and % of Projects Completed within Requested Delivery Date # and % of Projects Completed within Committed Delivery Date # and % of Projects Completed within Requested and Committed Delivery Date
I have 3 different fields to base my calculation from: Actual Delivery Date Requested Delivery Date Committed Delivery Date
I have created 2 new fields that calculate the number of days: [Actual Delivery Date] - [Requested Delivery Date] [Actual Delivery Date] - [Committed Delivery Date]
I'm trying to set up a "Status" field to indicate whether the project was completed "Within Requested", "Within Committed", or "Within Requested and Committed", however, I'm stumped. I've tried an Iff statement to no resolve. I don't want 10 queries just to get me there either.
On one of my reports, I want to show the "Days Open". If the RC_Status is "Active" I want to calculate the "Days Open" by subtracting RC_START_DATE from Today(). However if the RC_Status is "Closed" I want the "Days Open" to be calculated by RC_APPROVAL_DATE minus RC_START_DATE.
So the question is, what is the best way to do this and how would I write the formula to calculate this?
I have several buttons on a form and I want to set enabled = false on one of them when I open the form - that's fine
I have two txt fields - ReceiptNo and BankPaymtId if the both have a value I want to make the button enabled = True
This is the code I have used on the BankPaymentId On Dirty event
Private Sub BankPaymentId_Dirty(Cancel As Integer) If Me.[ReceiptNo] <> "" Then If Me.[BankPaymtId] <> "" Then Me.CreateOutlay.Enabled = True End If End If End Sub
This is the one for ReceiptNum on Dirty event
Private Sub ReceiptNum_Dirty(Cancel As Integer) If Me.[ReceiptNo] <> "" Then If Me.[BankPaymtId] <> "" Then Me.CreateOutlay.Enabled = True End If End If End Sub
In an access form, I have several checkboxes. There is one checkbox titled "Complete". The complete checkbox needs to be true only if all other "non master" checkboxes are true. If all of the non master checkboxes are not checked, I need the complete checkbox to be false. This is the code that I am currently using on the after update command:
If me.checkbox1 and Me.checkbox2=True then me.completed=True else me.completed=False end if
This works fine if there is no "and" in the if statement and the condition is based on the status of one checkbox as opposed to many (Also I have about 15 checkboxes that must be checked before the "complete" checkbox is true).
If I want to sum the percentages from April, May and June only if a column is Not Null, how would I do that?
example
Tbl 1 PK, Month Percent
Tbl 2 FK, Month Enrolled Qty of Rx in the 1st month enrolled Qty of Rx in 2nd qtr Base (if Qty of Rx in 2nd Qtr is null then Qty of Rx in 1st month enrolled)
If Qty of Rx in 2nd QTR is NOT NULL then QTY of Rx in 2nd Qtr * Sum of April Percent+May Percent+June Percent, otherwise Qty of Rx in 1st month enrolled * Month Percent
Im getting stuck on how to sum the percents of April, May and June and then multiplying the result times the Qty ONLY IF the field is not null.
I only know how to create Query's using the design mode. I dont know how to write SQL statements.
For my study on academic research I need to match patents that refer to academic research as prior work with the actual prior work.
I have two tables (see attached images below).
One regarding AcademicPublications (AP), which is neatly organized with title, year, journal, volume, pages, first author, etc... 480,000 rows
One regarding Patentswhere all this information is hidden within one field, in the most messy way possible... for instance, a field could have:
Quote:
Sugita et al, "Nonsurgical Implantation of a Vascular Ring Prosthesis Using Thermal Shape Memory Ti/Ni Alloy (Nitionl Wire)," Trans. Amer. Soc. Artif. Intern. Organs, vol. 23, pp. 30-34.
or
Quote:
Willingham et al., Cell 13, 501-507 (1978).
Or many other ways.
I want to create a new table that is set up like this:
The question is: How do I match different fields from one table on one field of another and make it return another field (the ID)? Some references are too horrible to match, but I need as many as I can get.
I can imagine two queries would give me the bulk:
A match in [Title] AND [Year]
A match on ([SourceTitle] OR [AbbreviatedSourceTitle] ) AND [Volume] AND [Year] AND [PageStart]
I understand that I have to make use of the Like "*"&[value]&"*", but how do I make it return the matching ID?
I am trying to map certifications done by colleagues in my department.There are 4 certifications and I have which I have pulled out from the Certifications tables using individual query for each certification.Now, I want to add "Certification-Name_Certified" col which will have "yes" or "no" values for each certification to the master data of the department personnel as it only have unique records using a query.
I am trying to write a query that gets all the telephone hours from a worker done under supervision in a town (qry_svhoursbytown). I have a table that has the workers details, including town (Crisis_support_workers), then another table that has what hours each worker has done (Supervision_Hours). The town is selected from a combo box on the form (frmSearch), under the heading �total hours by location�.
I try and select Bathurst then press recalculate results and in the text box next to supervision hours, it says 66, but if you look in the Supervision_Hours table, there is only 11 hours for the workers that are in Bathurst.
In the query, I have the sum total of the hours field in the Supervision_Hours table, the Town field from the Crisis_support_workers table with the total selected as Where and in that criteria I have [forms]![frmSearch]![ComboTown], then I just have the town field displayed.
What do I need to change to get it to sum correctly?
I have attached the database below so people can take a look.
Is there a place within an Access database besides a table where you can store a flag (text or boolean or number) that persists after the database is closed and can be checked when the database is opened (using VBA)?
I have a field called density which needs to be updated to show either 10, 20, 30, 40, 50,60, 70 or 80 depending on a number of variables, for example: If market location is 'hot' and unit type is 'house' and discounted is 'no' then show '10' in the density box.
or perhaps:
If market location is 'cold' and unit type is 'apartment' and discounted is 'no' then show '20' in the density box.
I have tried all sorts of expressions and queries but have really reached the limit of my know how and can't solve it. Is it even possible to do this in Access?
I have a combo box which gets its values from sql server using a query which is called "get_query_reason", which works fine. Now I want to update combo box values based on a user selection, st string. Have written the code, but does not work:
Dim qDef As QueryDef Dim Query As String Dim st As String Dim rs As Recordset st = "SOV" Set qDef = CurrentDb.QueryDefs("get_query_reason")
I have 2 form controls one a combobox and the other a text box. The text box select the site (txtLocation) where the user can enter part of the name of the site and all sites with those characters are returned. I've done this by adding:
Code: Like [Forms]![frmSearchDB2]![txtLocation] & "*"
into the criteria on the Site field in the query design editor.I also want the combobox to have an affect on the query. I want it to query on user status. However if the combobox reads "All Users" I want it to return all status's and all null values. In the criteria field I put:
Code: iif([Forms]![frmSearchDB2]![cbxUserStatus] = "All Users",like "*",[Forms]![frmSearchDB2]![cbxUserStatus])
It kind of works but no null values are pulled back. Should it be an expression?Do I need to do it in VBA?
I have a table listing about 20 elements as field names eg FE, CR, NI, TI and so on.
I have built a form which has a combo box listing these elements by selecting "fields" in the property settings of the combo box & next to this combo box i have 2 text box's where the user can input Min & Max values to pass on to the query.
E.g., FE (chosen from the combo box) value between (Text box1) and Text box 2.
I can run the query to give me values between the 2 text box's by using the following formula in the criteria (Between textbox1 and textbox 2).
The issue i have is to be able to select the element from the listbox, input the min & max values identified and be able to pass this to a query so the query can filter based on the field and values passed?
I'm trying to perform a DELETE query at run-time. The criteria for deleting records is somewhat complex due to various one-to-many dependancies between the tables, overlapping of date fields etc., so in order to restrict the DELETE to only those records which qualify, I've set up a load of smaller queries to produce the list of eligible records.There is only one parameter required - a 'CutOff' date which is arbitrarily chosen by the user and is available in a textbox control on an open form when the code is triggered.
Here is the main DELETE query :
Code: DELETE DISTINCTROW [tblComments].* FROM [tblComments] INNER JOIN [qryCommentsToPurge] ON [tblComments].[CommentID] = [qryCommentsToPurge].[CommentID] WHERE [tblComments].[CommentID] = [qryCommentsToPurge].[CommentID]
I've put qryCommentsToPurge and all the cascading sub-queries below - have highlighted in red where the parameter value is required (it is used in the queries to identify the records which must be retained, i.e. not deleted)Each of the individual sub-queries works fine and correctly (they return the correct population of records that they were designed to)If I run the sub-queries manually, I am prompted to provide the CutOff date, as you would expect - and the recordset returned in each case is correct for that date.
If, however, I run the DELETE at run-time (with the form containing that textbox open and containing a valid date value) I get a 3061 error :Suggesting that the queries can't pull the parameter value from the textbox on the form. But I've stuck a watch in the debugger on [Forms]![frmArchive]![txtCutOffDate] and I'm getting the correct date value? The form is open and available at the time.So why can't the query see it? I use these kinds of control references elsewhere in other queries and they work fine. I don't understand why it's a problem here?
Code: SELECT [tblComments].* FROM [tblComments] INNER JOIN [qryIssuesToPurge] ON [tblComments].[IssueID] = [qryIssuesToPurge].[IssueID] ORDER BY [tblComments].[CommentID];
I have a query which uses values in two hidden text boxes, in order to populate a sub form.Unfortunately some times the data in the text box contains brackets within it as follows:
'120/60 ZR17 (55W)'
When this occurs the query returns no data, even though records with a matching code exists in the table I am working with where Speed is 'FR'.
Code: WHERE (((stockdyn.SPEED)="FR") AND ((stockdyn.DESCRIPN) Like '*' & [forms]![frmSearch]![Text10] & '*'))
How can I get around this, as surely if I used quote marks it would take "[forms]![frmSearch]![Text10]" as the value I am searching for.
I have a form (DropDown form) that has 3 drop down fields, you select your values from the drop downs and you would push a command button that runs an event procedure which runs a query (DropDown qry test). The user should have the option of picking any combination of fields to filter by. Or no combination, which would return all values in all fields. So I am basically using the form as parameter's for the query.
The problem I'm having is that my query is returning values for one field AND values for another field. Even if the other values selected are not in the same record. It's not combining the fields together to filter. For example: you pick a Project name and Supplier name, the query will return records that have the project name you selected but it will also return records with the supplier name you selected that have a different project name.
I've attached screen shots of the form and the design view of the query (the screen shot cut off the last column name. It is meant to say "Expr3: [Forms]![DropDown form]![Combo7]").
Using Windows 7, Access 2010
Is there a way to select multiple values from the drop downs?
how to return all values in a query when a form critieria is left blank. I have made some progress, the combo box criteria queries were fairly simple, but i'm getting stuck with my date criteria. My query doesn't return null values when I want it to.
I want it to return all records (including null values) if the form OpenFrom and OpenTo dates are blank, and just the values between the selected dates (excluding null values) if the form is completed.
Code: SELECT qryReportSelector2_Authority.*, qryReportSelector2_Authority.ApplicationDate AS ApplicationDateFilter FROM qryReportSelector2_Authority WHERE (((qryReportSelector2_Authority.ApplicationDate) Between Nz([Forms]![frmReportSelector]![OpenFromDate],DMin("[ApplicationDate]","[qryAllCases]")) And Nz([Forms]![frmReportSelector]![OpenToDate],DMax("[ApplicationDate]","[qryAllCases]"))));
i'm creating a search form giving the end user a range of controls to use when filtering/searching data. See the image.But, i think my range search (using the textbox) to put in a lower and upper limit...is preventing this from working. In fact, when i put data into all the controls, no data pops up in my subform.
My query data source can also be seen...showing you how i've handled teh null entries. (i need to put in a null 'handler' for the two textboxes?)
