Queries :: Expression Or SQL To Count Query Columns?
Jan 7, 2014
I'm looking for an expression or SQL for use in a query that will count the number of columns in another query. I do not need to count the records, I just need to know how many columns. I can't seem to locate a reference to a column count - everything points me to record count.
I have the following SQL which returns rows of distinct numbers that are calculated from a field.
SELECT Distinct (Left([ProjectID],4)) AS NumberOfCalls FROM tblProject;
ProjectID looks something like this : 1307-IND-001 and NumberOfCalls looks like : 1307
I need to count the number of unique "NumberOfCalls" entries that there are in a list of about 50 rows. Currently the SQL returns a list of numbers like this:
1307 1311 1401 etc...
I just want NumberOfCalls to show "3". Is there an easy way to do this?
I want to count data from my table ( Table ) and to display result like a dashboard (Desired result ). To count this do i need to write query for every column and then link to final column? i have totally 300 columns to count I am attaching Table & desired result images;
I've got a table with 23 columns. Column 1 is the ID row which has a unique client ID in it. Then we've got a column called 1st_Reason and one that goes with it called 1st_Transfer_Date. This pair repeats for 2 through 10. Each of the Reason columns can have a set value, for example "First Processor".
What I need to do is create a date with months on the Y axis and the 5 different reasons on the X axis. I need to count the number of "First Processor" across all 10 Reason columns for each month. I would need to repeat that for each other reason type, but if I can get one to work I can simply change the reason type.
I'm pretty new at Access queries so I don't know how to use a count statement to pull from all those queries AND get the corresponding date to be in range.
I have a columns that do not incur a count value within the time period of my query, yet i still want them to be displayed with a 0 or no value in the query view, how do i do this?
I am trying to add calculations to queries based on columns in the query... it seems to randomly expect 'Expression' or 'Group by' as column types, and Im having to create 3 sets of queries following on from each other to de-dupe data and allow filters on calculated values.
Also I've got a function which turns a date into a quarterly cohort, e.g. Oct 2013 -> 20134. I use ot on a lot of dates. I created a VBA function, CohortQ used as follows in queries:
Code: Function CohortQ(InputDate As Date) As Integer If InputDate = 0 Then CohortQ = 0 Exit Function End If
[Code] .....
But when I run it on a date field, it gives me a data mismatch error. I can't step through as it's working on 600K rows. If I put the function into the query,
Users add transactions via a form after they put in the total of the transaction I want to run a query that gets a running balance of the client's account to make sure that paying this transaction will not over draw the clients account.What would be the best method of approach?
The ProjRevMRC field is an expression that reads:ProjRevMRC: IIf([ProjRevDate]>=DateSerial(Year(Date()),Month(Date()),1),[CurrentMRC]*[qry303a_ SFADetailMRC_ONLY]![Rev Flow Through],0)
When I run the query, it works perfectly, but when I created a crosstab query to show totals by month, I wanted the totals to be zero for the months less than the current month. Is there a way for the crosstab query to execute the expression and put zeroes for those months?
how to optimize a query expression. I have the below query that determines the employees rate, based on which bracket their total income falls into. I'm concerned that I have not writting this expression in the most efficient manner.
SepEmployeeIncomeTaxRate: IIf([SepEmployeeTotalIncome] Between [Sep_Txl_TaxGroup1_Min] And [Sep_Txl_TaxGroup1_Max],[Sep_Txl_TaxGroup1_Rate],IIf([SepEmployeeTotalIncome] Between [Sep_Txl_TaxGroup2_Min] And [Sep_Txl_TaxGroup2_Max],[Sep_Txl_TaxGroup2_Rate],IIf([SepEmployeeTotalIncome] Between [Sep_Txl_TaxGroup3_Min] And [Sep_Txl_TaxGroup3_Max],[Sep_Txl_TaxGroup3_Rate],IIf([SepEmployeeTotalIncome] Between [Sep_Txl_TaxGroup4_Min] And [Sep_Txl_TaxGroup4_Max],[Sep_Txl_TaxGroup4_Rate],IIf([SepEmployeeTotalIncome] Between [Sep_Txl_TaxGroup5_Min] And [Sep_Txl_TaxGroup5_Max],[Sep_Txl_TaxGroup5_Rate],0)))))
I'm doing a query for a call centre that is to calculate the number of calls for locations over 100k Square foot. However, I want to normalize the calculation by 100k SF. So the calculation should count the call centre work orders and then multiply it by 100k and divide it by the location Area.
I have no clue where to start, below is where I'm at. the new expression that i've added "wo" is where I want to count the total ([CallID]*100000)/[Area]. this isn't working.
I run a query with several columns. The first column in that query is full of individual names; about 50. I have another spreadsheet with three names. I used to be able to set a criteria or a filter (whatever you want to call it) in a query that when "Run" would only return to me the names from the spreadsheet with 3. Not a drop box or a pop up where I have to fill out the name, just a spreadsheet with all the transactions that occurred with these specific three individuals.
I need to figure out the amount of days between two dates that do not exist in my database...I use this calculation to do waivers...I was able to build a table and put in the two dates and then build a query which calculates the days between the two but I wanted to know if I could build a query that prompts on a [start date] which I would enter and then prompts on an end date [end date] which I would enter to get the number of days between...is that possible?
I had...
WaiverDays: [Enter start date]-[Enter end date] but it did not let me run...I added () and it still did not run...
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.
Why is my query limiting itself to only 16 columns? when I tab right for another field, it jumps back to the first field. I have other queries with far more columns than that. My DB size is 3,400 kb.
I have several tables that I need to join together to create a single form for multiple entries. Job Table, OPR Table, Organization, Program List Table, Program Notes, Rank, Reference Table, and Status Table.
Ultimately, I need to be able to display all of these in one form and allow for adding/editing notes from the Program Notes section. I also need to be able to let the user look up all info by selecting the Program Name and have the other field populate correctly. The issue I am running into is that I cannot get the Program Notes table to join to the Program List table correctly.
This is what I attempted to use in SQL: SELECT [Program Name], [Status], [Reference], [Self-Inspection], [IG Checklist], [Continuity Book], [Bragging Paper], [Program Strengths], [ORI Reports], [Best Practices] FROM [Program List Table] UNION SELECT [Log Date], [Log Entry] FROM [Program Notes]
However, I keep getting an error. I have read that it is because I don't have the same amount of columns, but the tables don't have the same information.I have also tried to do it through a normal query and through a third table, however I get errors about ambiguous outer joins and I can't seem to make that work either.
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.
I have an expression that sets an AI Buy It Now value that is 125% of AI Value and rounds it, which follows AI Buy It Now: Round(([AI Value]*1.25)/10)*10
I need to add to this expression that I only want this calculation applied if AI Values are greater than 999. But I can't figure out how to add this stipulation to the above expression. I have tried IIF but it is not working.
I would like to create another field in the query using DLookup to return the value of the BrithMon.
BrithMonthID=DLookUp("MonID","tblListMons","BirthM on = Mon")
This works good if used with an unbound text box on a form, but when entered into a query expressions, an error is returned: cannot find the name 'BirthMon'
Can I used DLookUp in a Query expression to refer to another Query created field?
Product1 5 240 A Product1 7 19 B Product1 6 12 C Product2 96 0 A Product2 98 23 B Product2 99 44 C
There are 3 suppliers for the products (name of the suppliers are A, B and C).I want to make a query with the following result :
Product1 5 240 A Product2 98 23 B
In other words :Showing a grouped list (grouped by products), with the lowest price of the supplier who has stock (quantity >0).I can make a list of grouped products with the lowest price, but it's not possible for me to show the stock and the supplier that's related with it.
I have a database that tracks students and their test scores. I am trying to figure out a way to where it will pull the student's latest test score and compare it to see if they fall within standards. So far I have 3 tables.
The query I have written looks like this: SELECT tblStudents.studentID, Max(tblResults.resultDate) FROM tblStudents LEFT JOIN tblResults ON tblStudents.studentID = tblResults.resultStudent GROUP BY tblStudents.studentID." The data pulls just fine at this point. What I'm trying to figure out is how to then add more columns to this query to start doing comparisons. When I try to add more columns it tries to use them for additional grouping and adds many more records.
