Queries :: Create A Query That Asks For Multi Entries In One Column
Apr 11, 2014
Is it possible to create a query that asks for multi entries in one column .....
For example : If I have parts that I purchase and some of them get rejected I want to inform someone of those parts, these parts could be on order numbers, 1,2,8,10 ....
I cannot just search on rejected because some parts could have been reject say 2 weeks ago but new ones have not arrived yet so the flag "rejected" is still showing ....
Is it possible to set the criteria that when asked for the order number/s you could type in ,1,2,8,10 ....
create a datasheet from 2 odbc linked tables which I will be exporting to Excel. The resulting datasheet will have four columns, 'Purchase Order Number' 'Stock Code' 'Delivery Date' 'Unit Price'. The information I require in the datasheet is a unique stock code (one occurrence of each stock code) with the most recent unit price based on the last delivery date for each product. The linked tables contain many Purchase Orders for the same stock codes over a time period of a number of years where the unit price has varied.
Basically, I have a database table that is maintained every week. It is about e-mail account licenses for Office 365.
Each column represents a week of license data for every mailbox account which is about 10 000 plus users with the date as the field headers( something like "License information as of 06122013").
Basically, I have created 52 queries based on the license type I require to be calculated & I have a form created to control it. However, right now it is all output only as I have yet to create any user parameter to specify on any of the queries about the date I want
As I am currently unsure how to specify all the queries to use one field date header which I want the user to specify via drop down list in order to calculate all the licenses on this specific date.
For example, if I want to see the license information for 06/11/2013, I would choose "License as of 06112013" & it would then run all the queries based on the header specified earlier & output that information on the form.
Right now the queries are all configured as the "Select" type.
I wish to generate a new query consisting rows that I have selected in a multi colum list box. May I know if it is possible to work? I am totally lost now
Hi, I'm trying to import data from another database (codes), and the text field in that database is set to 7.
Our new database only needs the first 5 digits of the codes, so I'm wondering is it possible to create a query that filters any entries where the code field has more then 5 digits?
Is there anyway to use Like in queries where the user could type in more than one word?
I have a text box (search title), on a form (Search).
On after update the text box, opens a query.
The criteria in the query for the Title field is:
Like "*" & [Forms]![Search]![search title] & "*"
this works great for one word or phrase.
I would like the user to be able to type in 2 words, and have the query find all the records where the first word is in the Title, and where the second word is in the Title. And so on with 3 words or more.
If there was a way I could get the crosstab query in Access to allow more than one column I would solve a major problem. Is that possible?...help anyone?
I have an assesment and need to create a database, I'm just starting with access and I need some little help if anyone has time.
I'm doing the database for an interim managment company and i have problem with the experience category. Basically because every candidate has got at least 3 or 4 different experiences, I don't know how to design the table. All I know is that I probably will have to create a separate table for this.
I am trying to run a simple update query to copy data from one column (Addrl1)to another column (Working_Addrl1) within the same file and I can't for the life of me figure it out. Then I need to repeat for addrl2 and addrl3 to working_addrl2 and working_addrl3.
I have a listbox that uses a query to reference a value in the current form. The problem is for some reason Access is trying to fill this listbox before even showing the form, so I get prompted to manually enter the query criteria when it should be picking it up from the form.
This is bizarre because it's only just started doing it. I've removed the listbox and created it again, but no help. I have listboxes such as this all over the place, but this particular one has just started playing up! Why?
I have created a cross tab to extract pipeline and sales for Q1 2014, Q2 2014, Q3 2014 & Q4 2014... the user can select the quater from a multivalued text box...
Now for the final output, have created another query which pull the above four quarter in each column from the cross tab...now the problem arises when i change the quarter to Q2 2014, Q3 2014, Q4 2014 & Q1 2014..it gives an error "Microsoft office Access database does not recognizes "Query name" as a valid field name or expression".
The error is because the second layer of query does not identifies Q1 2014.
How do i make access change the column automatically when the Q1 changes to Q2...
I have a field in which I wish to post several contacts. The contacts are listed in a table and populate the specific field via a drop down. In this specific field I want to select "mary" "bob" and "fred" (all three to display) however only one is displayed.....
I have a table which stores multiple materials in different columns, and the analysis results for each material in the associated cell. I need to create a query which will display a new row for each material and result with all the appropriate associations (location, date, time, etc.) Is there a way to do this in a single query? Do I have to create a separate query for each material?
Ultimately, I need to create an excel file which displays each material, the analysis result for that material, and the associated site, date/time values in a new row for each material.
I am looking to add a column in a query that will give a Y or No to previous column data if it contains TEXT or NUMBER (It could read "TEXT" or "NUMBER" or even Y for text or N for number).
I have a form where a user can select from a listbox (pulled from a database) and "Add product" - it then goes into a Textbox, each taking a new line when "Add product" button pressed. Then when they press "Add Customer" those details along with other entered details gets stored in my Customer Database..
The textbox store multi-line entries in the "ProductName" field heading in database.
Is there anyway i can use a List instead of the textbox? Adding individual entries to one certain customer? I have an EDIT facility aswell so would be easier to have a "Remove Product" button instead of manually backspacing a whole product entry from another textbox (containing all products, on new lines).
I will need to create a new column in a query with data based off of two columns currently in my DB.
Current fields are: [TestType] & [TestReason]. New TEMP field will be [TestCombo]
TestType has 4 possible option via drop down. TestReason has 21 possible options via drop down. TestCombo will be one of 10 options depending on the data in TestType & TestReason.
examples: (here is an example of how the combo field will be populated. There will be ten total rules like this. one for each possible text option in the combo box.) If [TestType] is "DRUG" & [TestReason] is "PRE" or "RAND" or "PA" then [TestCombo] would be "DOTDT".
If [TestType] is "ALCOHOL" & [TestReason] is "PRE" or "RAND" or "PA" then [TestCombo] would be "DOTAT".
If [TestType] is "DRUG" & [TestReason] is "N-PRE" or "N-OTHER" or "N-FUP" then [TestCombo] would be "NDDT".
The data does not need to be saved anywhere at all in the database, just generated when pulling this query. It will then be exported and dumped into another system.
Thanks. Here is a temp copy of the database with some junk data to maybe make it a little more clear.
I have a form that feeds information to a query which in turn sets up a report. For clarity i will list out in basic terms what I have
Input Form - Check Box to activate/De-activate a text field [chk-active] - Text field for a parameter [txt-Parameter]
the query has a column that has null values from the originating table. These values will be added a t a later date, but need to be queried and reported at some business intervals.
In the query criteria for this column, I have the following Criteria
Like IIF([Forms]![ReportGenerator]![chk-Active]=0, "*", [Forms]![ReportGenerator]![txt-Parameter])[/I][/I]
I have tried for the last 5 hours to figure out how to write the formula to be able to get the blank entries to show up as well but have had no luck.
I have a text column that has some Letter in it, the format is #A-##A where A = Alpha, the last Alpha is also not required. What I want to do is get a list of all the first A's, so like i have 11P-23A, 22G-45B, 33K-67C and I want to get A,G,K is this possible?
I'm sure I'm not being dim, but I really can't figure how to do this.
I have a list box with two columns. One column (bound) is a name, the other is a unique ID. I need to transfer both the Name and the ID to a second list box (again, two columns).
I can get it to do this with single selections, but not multiple ones, and this is what I need.
I have a combo box with 5 columns. When I click it I want to display columns 1 to 4, together with the headings. But after making my selection, I want column 5 stored in the field.
How can I do that? Currently it is storing column 1.
I have a reporting need that I believe (hope) is not unique
My customer needs to print out information about a customer that is compused of information specific to the customer (keyed on customer ID) and sets of information about their purchases in different categories (food, cars, clothes and pets). Each of these categories has different identifying characteristics. (These are represented by subReports on the report).
No problem printing out the report looking like this
------------------------------------------------------------------- Customer Name - Mike Lester Custoner Address - 101 Main St., AnyTown,CO 11111
Food Beets 10 lbs $1.25 Green Lettuce 1 lbs $ .78 Green Bananas 20 lbs $ .33 Yellow
Pets Goldfish 2 Fish Beagle 1 Dog Great Dane 3 Dog Cocateil 2 Bird Macaw 1 Bird ------------------------------------------------------------------------
The problem is the customer wants the report to use the entire page. I tried positioning the subReports in two columns (left and right) but the problem is based on the number of items in each subReport the report ends up looking dumb and wasting paper (also it doesn't look very professional)
What I want to happen is the report to print as many subReports as it can on the left column (without leaving any hanging orphans) then start printing then next subreport at the beginning of the right column. See example below: (Sorry about the ~ Symbol being used to represent a space, for some reason the text box wouldn't save my formatting)
------------------------------------------------------------------------- Customer Name - Mike Lester ~~~~~~~~Clothes Custoner Address - 101 Main St., ~~~~~~~Belts 5 AnyTown,CO 11111 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Shirts 9 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Socks 11 Food ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Pants 5 Beets 10 lbs $1.25 Green~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Hats 1 Lettuce 1 lbs $ .78 Green Bananas 20 lbs $ .33 Yellow ~~~~~~~~Pets ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Goldfish 2 Fish Cars ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Beagle 1 Dog Mustang 1966 $23,888 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Great Dane 3 Dog VW 1955 $222 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Cocateil 2 Bird VW 2002 $23,000 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Macaw 1 Bird Cadillac 2004 $44,999 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is probably the longest question of the day. Does anyone have any ideas or examples. I am hoping that this doesn't involve any massive VBA or using Word. There are 200 other reports, and the customer doesn't currently use Word. The entire application is 100% Access.
I currently have a database of customer information and form set up with a MultiList box based on the regions those companies are based. You select the region(s) you require from the list box, click a button and it runs a query.
However I now want to be able to filter the results further using a combo box with business sectors in also.
The code used for the multilist box is as follows (I don't totally understand all the code if I'm honest, but it works )
Private Sub Command2_Click() Const cstrQuery As String = "CAMPQRY" Dim strNames As String Dim strSelect As String Dim StrWhere As String Dim varItm As Variant
