I'm using Access 2007 and have a query in which I have a Where clause that includes a TempVars variable. Here is the SQL:
Code:
SELECT tbl_CostCenter.*, tbl_OpEx.*, qry_OpExByCC.*
FROM (tbl_CostCenter INNER JOIN tbl_OpEx ON tbl_CostCenter.[Cost Center] = tbl_OpEx.[Cost Center]) INNER JOIN qry_OpExByCC ON tbl_CostCenter.[Cost Center] = qry_OpExByCC.[Cost Center]
WHERE tbl_OpEx.[Base Year]=TempVars!CurrentBaseYear
ORDER BY tbl_CostCenter.[Cost Center];
I get runtime error 3070 stating that "The Microsoft Access database engine does not recognize 'TempVars!CurrentBaseYear' as a valid field name or expression." When I run the query without the Where clause, it runs fine, except it includes all years, not just the one I need.
However, when I use the immediate window to check the value of TempVars!CurrentBaseYear, I get a result of 2012 which is what I expected. So how can it not be recognized in the query? I thought that one of the perks of using a TempVars variable is that it can be used in queries.
I have simple crosstab query that I use to pull data about how many products is selled in one day/week/month and so on. On entry form I have two critical date fields, Starting/Ending date. It all works perfect except when I put indetical values in both those fields.
For example I have sold over 100 items on 4th of february 2015. year. So, in Starting/Ending date field of entry form, I put value from 04/02/2015 to 04/02/2015 in order to see how much items was selled that day.
This is the error I receive:

The code behind the report - sets on open_report event is the following however i cant see any issues with it as i use it elsewhere..
Code: ' Create underlying recordset for report using criteria entered in Dim intX As Integer Dim qdf As QueryDef Dim frm As Form ' Set database variable to current database. Set dbsReport = CurrentDb
[code]....
I will also attach a copy of how i set the criteria in the query and the parameters
What I am doing is on close of a form I want to change the colour of a button on another open form (the name of the button is held in the tempvar). But I cant get it to work...
I am modifing the Inventory templete from Microsoft. A form is displayed (inventory transaction list) and you can select a filter for the data. Also on that form you can select a report. I would like to have the report respect the filter. I can see that the filter string is being stashed in a TempVar but haven't yet figgured out how to apply it to the selected report. Any insights would greatly appreciated Thanks
This table holds variables that I want to declare to use throughout my application. I have been told in another thread that tempVars are the best way to do this.
I have written the following code, which works on a limited basis:
Private Sub btnSetVAr_click() TempVars.Add "udvVar", Me!My_value.Value End Sub
This defines a single variable on each button press, fine to work out how the code works, but not much use. What I really need to do is when the initial menu screen loads to call a routine to assign all the variables stored in the table using a loop to do this. The idea is to make all variables values easy to edit or add to, rather than have to edit code each time we need to change them.
The variables table holds 14 records so far, such as:
My_Var, My_Value
EuroRate, 0.885 ConDisc, 0.9 MollDisc, 0.8
As well as holding numbers, they hold strings and date values.
So, on loading the initial form, use an event to assign the variables from the table using the tempVar name as the value held in "My_Var" and it's value as held in "My_Value"
I have a database which among other things records how jobs are received i.e.: Telephone, Email, Mail, Facsimile or Web.For each client I want to identify the percentages of each method of receipt against the total of jobs received and during different time periods.I have created a make table query for all jobs received between variable dates for a client entry of the name of the client and the start and finish dates are required to run the query.
I have a crosstab query set up to count each method of receipt and a final query to work out the percentages using the total from the crosstab query fields divided by the total of all methods.I have a macro set up to replace the table with new data when I want the stats for a different client between new dates, therefore the different methods of receipt may vary for the less active clients i.e.: they may only have telephone and email .
My problem is if I choose a client where we have not received a job by a particular method (say web or facsimile), the last query working out the percentages has fixed names to cover each method but naturally produces an error when it cannot find a corresponding method of receipt. I have experimented with NZ() without success.My question is can I either have preset standard names of the column field in a crosstab query? Alternatively in the query calculating the percentages, can I include code to ignore a non-existent field in the crosstab query.
I am having problems adding details from StudentForm to student table. When I click on the add student button it throws back an error Microsoft Access cant append all the records in the append query.I have attached the error as a pdf and the database for info.
I have different product groups and they can have one of 3 rental rates(5,4,3%) I have written a nested query but I keep getting parenthesis errors, the last one I got told me I must enclose iif functions in parentheses. I know its probably a small thing but I just cant see it. By the way the server is German so ; need to be used instead of ,.
IIf([view_India]![Sub_Group] In (1730;1810;2870);5;iif Left([view_India]![Sub_Group];2) In (01;02;21;24;29) ;5;iif([view_India]![Sub_Group] In (3310;3330;3340;3360);3;4))))
I ran a very similar code with near-identical SQL, with only the fields and tables changed, and it had worked before. However, after changing the fields and tables, I repeatedly get error 3134 for "syntax". The code was
Code: Private Sub UpdateI_Click() Dim PerName As String, strsubb As String, Popup As Role, Strsub As String PerName = InputBox("What is their name?") strsubb = "INSERT INTO Company-personID (CompanyNo, Name) VALUES ('" & Me.CompanyNo & "', '" & PerName & "');" DoCmd.RunSQL strsubb
[Code] ....
You can ignore the userform and inputbox if they're not important in this, but I figured they might just be. When I run "Strsub" and "strsubb" by themselves, they both come up with errors, so it's not one or the other. There are two tables in this. A table of companies, which has its form open, and a child table of companies and their people.
I wanted strsubb to put in a record where a person is added, their name based on the inputbox, and their associated company to be marked as the one that is in the field "companyno".
Strsub is meant to set the same person's roles to be whatever was clicked on the userform. If it's important, the roles are in a lookup wizard with multiple choices.
(I'm not sure if this belongs in the macro or query forum)
I have a macro that opens 15 queries and ends with opening a report.
The final query asks the user to type in beginning date, then an end date. Now when there's a data mismatch (i.e., he spells feburary), the macro halts. No harm no foul, they can just click the command button again, but I'd rather not.
What I'd like to do is place a msgbox (i.e., "Check Your Spelling") and then reroute them back to the query.
I am creating a database to analyze prices. I have 2 tables. One table has a bunch of dates, product names and the prices. There are many of the same dates and many of the same products. I.E. a product could get priced one day and than have a different price the next day.The other table has a bunch of information and dates and product names also. The goal is to add a week to the dates in this table and use that date and product name to look up the corresponding price for that date and product and add it to the record.
I am trying to use Dlookup but evey record is then filled with the same price. I am using this Expr1: DLookUp("Price","Qry_Historic_Price","[Date]=#[End Period]# And primary_id ='[primary_id']")...When I run the query I get a message that says "Syntax error in query expression" than a message box that pops and says "Unknown" with only "ok" to click.
Access and receive the following message after trying to run a query: Syntax error (comma) in query expression, followed by the formula I wrote on the Query Builder. I use 4 tables to run the query, but only need to trim some stuff from one of them. This table is called BD_lamosa_corregida and have already selected Expression on the Total row in Design View. This is the formula:
The formula is trying to trim the left side of an expression (Part description) which may contain a code number in parenthesis or not, it might also have this parenthesis separated by a space or not.
The following code supposed to let me print all records OR only those where dAreaFK = myCBO currently I get an error message "Object missing".if i remove this: Or Me!cboStatsArea Is Null..from the last line the it works but only if i make selection in combo.
Code: Private Sub cmdPrintOpen_Click() 'Print open defects using R_Open_details Dim i As Integer i = DCount("*", "Q_Open_details", "dAreaFK=cboStatsArea OR cboStatsArea IS Null") 'MsgBox "The count of rows is " & i If i = 0 Then MsgBox "No Records available for print", _ vbOKOnly, "Error" Exit Sub End If DoCmd.OpenReport "R_Open_details", acPreview, , _ "dAreaFK=" & Me!cboStatsArea Or Me!cboStatsArea Is Null End Sub
I have a database that is used to create a data file for a customer. The database has two linked tables that are linked to tables that are both in another database (but within the same database as each other). Their structure is identical.I have a union query set up to combine both linked tables.
I am using a Macro to export that query but after running for a short while I get the error "The query cannot be completed. Either the size of the query set....."Does Access have a limitation on union query size? Combined, the tables are a lot of data but I'm confused as both the tables I'm combining are in the same database.
I cannot sort below query in descending order by absolute value. If I do not use sort, all works fine but as soon as I try to sort by absolute value I get message to 'Enter Parameter Value'. I tried to replace Abs([Variance (W2 - W1)]) with filed name AbsoluteValue and still the same result ;(
Code:
SELECT [Query Union].[Stock Code] AS SKU, [Query Union].[Pallet No] AS [Pallet No], [Query Union].[Batch No#] AS Batch, IIf(IsNull([qW1 SOH].[Physical stock]),0,CDbl([qW1 SOH].[Physical stock])) AS [W1 Qty], IIf(IsNull([W2 SOH].[Good Stock]),0,CDbl([W2 SOH].[Good Stock])) AS [W2 Qty], [W2 Qty]-[W1 Qty] AS [Variance (W2 - W1)], Abs([Variance (W2 - W1)]) AS AbsoluteValue
I am building an access database for my college project and I essentially have a quotation form that when I click a button 'Convert to Invoice' it creates a new record in the invoice table and then creates new records in the invoice details table which match the quotation details table. This is working as it should but for only the first 2 customers in my customer table?
On the quote form I have a combo box which is linked to the customer table and updates the quote table based on the selection. If I select customer 1 or 2 and click 'convert to invoice' it works and opens an invoice form based on the inserted data however if I select any other customer it returns an error that the record wasn't added to the table due to key violations?
As far as I can tell I am not trying to update the primary keys in the Invoice Table or the Invoice Details Tables.
I'm trying to run a very basic iif statement to correct hourly data for sorting. Basically, a trading day runs from 8am - 8am, so I need to adjust the hours to ensure that 1am on the 15th trading day (really the 16th on the calendar), comes after 9am on the 15th trading day (which will actually be the 15th on the calendar).
Here's what I've used. It's driving me bananas, because it keeps telling me that there's a syntax error (comma) in the query expression, but I can't understand why?
I have a query that uses the input from a form as criteria, which is then used in a report. The form input is a drop down based on another table. This is a sales pipeline report, and the list is a list of sales people. The report works perfect for all sales people except one. When I run it for the one, I get the following error:
"This expression is is typed incorrectly, or it is too complex to be evaluated. For example, a numeric expression may contain too many complicated elements. Try simplifying the expression by assigning parts of the expression to variables".
I DO NOT get the same error when running the query by itself - so assuming there is something in the report causing this. I do have some sum formulas in the report.
Again, no other salespersons selected cause this error -- so I am assuming there is something in the dataset for this person that is causing the error.
SELECT Costs.Costs_Per_Capita, Costs.Period IIF (Period = 1, (Select AVG(Costs_Per_Capita) From Costs Where Period = 1), (Select AVG(Costs_Per_Capita) From Costs Where Period = 2) AS result FROM Costs;
But get "syntax error (missing operator) in a query expression ..."
I need to dynamically change the table in the sub-report's record source. I tried (line wrapped in code tags below for reading purposes)
Code: SELECT tblProjectHistory_fldProjectID, FirstOfHistory, [History Date], [Time Spent], Employee, fldAssigned, TheFieldPriority, fldTitle, employeeID, fldTimeSpent, fldStatus, fldHistoryID, fldOrder FROM " & [TempVars]![TempEmpTempTable] & " ORDER BY fldOrder;
And I get the error of invalid bracketing of name and it refers to the [TempVars]
