Queries :: How To Query Two Tables And Compare Results
Apr 18, 2013
I am putting together a database for work, I have a table that is used to refer to (this table is part of our production system) in this table it lists products run, dates run and who has run.
I have the training records data table, this lists; who, machine and status: "trained" "refresh required" " not trained"
I want to build a query so that it searches the production table for the last 6 months worth of records & if an operator that is in the training table (WHO) as status (trained) is not in the production table it outputs a "to be refreshed" report or amends the records from trained to "refresh required" ...

I have a question where I need to effectively invert the results of a select query.
I have multiple tables in the database, but the 2 I'm looking at are TBL.Trip and TBL.TripDiary
A trip is logged in the trip table, and then an operator logs a diary entry against the trip. One of the options that the operator selects is when they receive an email back from the traveller, this is logged as a diary entry.
I need the query to look at the DIARY_Action field and select all records in the TBL.Trip that DO NOT CONTAIN an entry for Diary Action "4".
I can produce a select query that gives me the results to see all trips that HAVE had a response, with a simple IS LIKE "4" query in the action field.
If I change this to IS NOT LIKE "4", I get the results that I need, but duplication due to the various other "diary" entries in the table".
I simply need the inverse of the IS LIKE query but cannot see how to remove the duplicates?

I have created a query that includes a module that determine what the actual order date should be. This works correctly. Now, I want to take that date in another query to only show rows where RPODate exceed the recommended date.
I keep getting an error stating the query is to complex. If I run it without the >Checkdate in the criteriea for RPODate it's fine.
Any ideas?
Query 1 with module
SELECT qryInstallationRPOrdered.ProjectID, qryInstallationRPOrdered.Phase, qryInstallationRPOrdered.Unit, qryInstallationRPOrdered.Tract, qryInstallationRPOrdered.Release, qryInstallationRPOrdered.DelDate, qryInstallationRPOrdered.InstallDate, qryInstallationRPOrdered.State, qryInstallationRPOrdered.RPODate, qryInstallationRPOrdered.NVDate AS CheckDate
FROM qryInstallationRPOrdered
WHERE (((qryInstallationRPOrdered.State)="NV"));
Query 2
SELECT qryInstallationRPONV.ProjectID, qryInstallationRPONV.Phase, qryInstallationRPONV.Unit, qryInstallationRPONV.Tract, qryInstallationRPONV.Release, qryInstallationRPONV.DelDate, qryInstallationRPONV.InstallDate, qryInstallationRPONV.State, qryInstallationRPONV.RPODate, qryInstallationRPONV.CheckDate
FROM qryInstallationRPONV
WHERE (((qryInstallationRPONV.CheckDate)>[RPODate]));

I have a table with a field 'FName'. I have run a query to count the number of each Name in this field. However, as well as having a blank field with 9129 results (which was expected) but another with 24 results that appears to be completely blank as well. There are another couple of incidences were results in 'FName' are appearing twice.
how to identify what is causing this duplication?

I am trying to build a query that allows me to enter data over two tables that are related. I'm using MS Access 97 if that makes a difference. For example
I have two tables like the following
Class
Class Id (auto number, primary key)
Class Name (text)
Class Teacher (text)
Class Room (text)
Student
Student ID (auto number. primary key)
Student Name (text)
Student Course (text)
Class Id (number, secondary key)
I tried creating a query that allowed data entry for the following fields
Student Name
Class Name
It first has the following error when trying to enter data in both the feilds;
The Microsoft Jet database engine can't find a record in the table 'Class' with key matching field(s)".
So i tried adding the record in the table class, but now i cant even see it in the query.
Any ideas?

I inherited a database that has two tables that are structured identical; one called tblcurrentdata and the other called tblpriordata. The user wants a report or export query that only shows records that has differences between prior weeks data and the current weeks data. The tables have 12 fields of data in a record per quote number. The user wants a query or report to identify the QuoteNum and any changes between the prior and current records. The table structures are as follows:
Code:
tblCurrentData/tblPriorData:
QuoteNum
CoName
State
ZipcodeNo
priorityColor
[code]...
QuoteNum 12345 field 5 (prioritycolor) changed from red in the prior week to green in the current week and field 7(POC) changed from Scott in the prior week to Jonson in the current week.QuoteNum 23451 did not have any changes therefore does not need to be listed in the query/report Unmatched query doesnt work because it does not compare multiple fields. I tried to structure a union query and use <> in each field but got too tedious and didnt give the expected results.

I am trying to do the good 'ol sales report (query) to include customers with no sales.
I have a customers table, account number table, sales table & sales (line) detail table. (all linked in that order)
If I run a query to show customers (in the customer table) with account numbers, that works
An unmatched query to show customer without an account number works (but of course the unmatched account number field isn't shown).
How can I get the two two be shown together with the "unmatched" having a null or 0 for their account number?
I am guessing in principle, the resulting solution can be modified to show customers without sales alongside those with sales?

I run a physical therapy office and patients come in for treatment either 3, 4 or 5 times per week. My database is used to track these frequencies (among other things).
I have 3 queries which count how many patients come in 5, 4 and 3 times/week.
In my main table I have fields called "how many 5's", "how many 4's" and "how many 3's".
I have tried to design an update query which will update those fileds in my main table to reflect the counts in the 3 queries mentioned above.
(I'm not using SQL view, I'm using the query design view)
In the "update to:" row, I use the Build function and locate the count I'm looking for.
Problem: when I run the query I get the error: Operation must use an updateable query.

Question:
How do I pull a comparison query to match the registration table to the Main table and pull only the data that is different so I can update the main table with the new Information? :confused:

I have a query that is showing two results for one product and I have no clue why. I have my tables in a one to many relationship and if I click on the + it shows the correct data for the product in question. Im guessing I have my table set up wrong its the only thing I can think of.
The table tbl_Carton has two entrys for a product (Flex Tape 2-1/16") (Product_PKEY #21) mabe I have it set up wrong? If I run my (qry_Switchboard ) and enter (21) its giving me an extra result for each of the two results thats suposed to be there.why?

I'm having a mental block on this one.
I have a table with a yes/no field. It's linked to a form with a yes/no box, but the outcome I want is that if the form box is unchecked, the query returns all the "yes" records - which is trivial; however I want to return ALL the records if the form box is checked.

I have an access database which is going to present a front end webpage form. The form has several drop down lists and I need one of those drop down list to display only certain results dependent on what the previous drop down list has selected e.g. if Box A is selected as Aces then I need the next drop down box to only display A building
1-A building
2 A building
3 and not the entire list.
How can i get this to work?

In Access 2007, I put into the table, in a certain field, a certain word field, so I put into design view for that query, in that field, Like "Field" and even though the word field is in that table in that field, it doesn't show it in that particular query?

I need to do a calculation on the RESULTS of a query. Each record in the table I'm querying has a date stamp. I have a query that produces a list of the newest records for each machine. I want to calculate how old each of those records is based on today's date.
So far when I try to include the calculation in that query, it returns all the records instead of the newest ones. This makes me think I'm doing something fundamentally incorrect. The calculation is affecting the query results where I just want to do the calculation on the results. What I'm trying to ultimately do is have a way for the users to see a list of machines that are overdue for a certain procedure. I was thinking of putting a button on a form that will run the query and present the list, perhaps with some conditional formatting highlighting the machines that are overdue, etc. Do I need to just use 2 queries?

I have created a booking system for a travel agency and now when the booking is complete I want to export some summary data to the Excel. The issue is that I have separate tables showing lunch, tickets, tour guides, etc for every destination and I have also created queries showing the total for each destination but the issue is that I cannot combine all the results into one query and export that query to excel.

I have a form that users can input data into and based on that data it runs a query and generates a report. These reports can be different based on user entered data on the form. My issue is within the report I would like to sum certain fields. The problem with trying to sum theses fields is that they show up on each row so I have hidden duplicates but when trying to sum the field it still trys to count the hidden duplicates thus giving a value that is of no use.
I have tried many methods to sum but one of the problems I continue to run into when I create a text box and build an equation and reference the field I would like to sum is when the report runs it is asking for a value to be entered for the field I am attempting to sum. I shouldn't need to enter a value as I am trying to obtain the value.

hello, i have checked out the forum for pevious Q's to this problem and found the below.
http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=80692&highlight=compare+tables
only problem is thats its writen at a bit too technicle a level from where i am. i've done some investigation into the problem though.
found out i need to use the docmd.transferdatabase function to import the tables i need to compare into my current db.
my question is this. how does it import them, does it create new tables within the current db or is it put somewhere in temp memory for use only while db is open, not sure how it would work. ideally i would like it to import tables, do the table comparison then create a report of the differences or make a new table showing the differences, then it reverts back to how it was before i imported it. i.e. he current databse is unchanged except for maybe a new report or new table (the results).
thank you for any advice.
Neil

I have two tables that have the exact same structure. They both started with the same data, but each were changed separately. (Two copies of the same DB, editted separately). I need to review the data in each record and determine what has changed or if records have been added. Is there an easy way for me to do this? (Note: Each record does have a primary key)

I have company names in 2 tables to compare, but the data is slightly different but same companies. I want to know what companies are in one table but not in another. Here's an example:
Company Name in Table 1 = Virtual Micro
Company Name in Table 2 = Virtual Micro Technologies
Same company, but the spreadsheet I imported for Table 2 had the full name for the company, so therefore they are not compared the same and the query result shows them to be different.
Do they have to be exactly the same, or can I compare a certain number of characters or somehow use the "like" criteria filter?

Hello to all. The problem that I am faced with is that I have a master list with all the current users and an updated list with all the current users and new users. What I have been asked to do is to compare the information in these two tables and have been given the following steps.
1. If name (surname, first name) exists in both lists do nothing.
2. If name exists in Update list but not in Master list then insert a blank row in the Master list and add the following Update list fields to this row: ¨
3. If name does not exist in the Update list then remove the entire row that contains that name from the Master list.
4. If 2. condition ("name exists in Update list but not in Master list") below applies, then insert the blank row with some kind of marker (e.g. "*") in a column on the far left. This will allow us to distinguish between:
So that is what I have to do can someone please tell me what a quick to do this in access would be. Thanks

It need to compare two tables where the ID Number is not equal. Specifically I need to update new poducts in a table, but only those ID#s that are not already listed.
I know how to compare two feilds where they are not equal...
i.e. [New_Table].[ITEM_NUM]<>[Old_Table].[ITEM_NUM]
...but I'm currently limited by the join properties in the tables, since I'm comparing IDs and not the feilds. ANY IDEAS?

I work in retail and am trying to compare items that are on auto-replenishment for a particular location to items that the location should have in their retail assortment to make sure that all of their items are on auto-replenishment. I need to also perform the comparison backwards to find out if any items are on auto-replenishment that should not be because they are not carried in the location's retail assortment.
I have attached a file below that shows the files I am working with. The first tab "items on replen" show the item # (in text and general formats) along with the location number, the min and the max. The 2nd tab "POG's by Center" show the retail planograms assigned to each center. The location# is at the top of the file and the planogram numbers fall below each location #. The 3rd tab shows the items on each planogram. The first thing I need to do is convert the planogram # into items on each planogram in each center. This is what I would need to use to compare to the items on replen.

Hi All,
I have a approximately 70 queries in my database. I would like to be able to run a query which would run all of the queries and output the number of records for each query. Ideally, these would then be written to a table so that the user could then just read the values from the table for the latest results, rathe r than have to execute the whole thing again.
The user may wish to select which queries to run. I was thinking that I would need a table as follows called say tblQueryResults:
QueryToRun - Yes/No - DateRun - NumberOfRecords
Query1 - Yes - -
Query2 - Yes - -
...
...
...
Query70 - Yes - -
So my first dilema is to work out how to run all the chosen queries that the user wishes to run. The user will probably have all 70 ticked as Yes initially.
Should I run this from VB code with a whole lot of VB statements. I would like to loop through the whole table and collect a list of all the queries to run based on a positive Yes for some or all of the queries. The results must then go and be written into the same table under the date it was run and the number of records that was found for each query.
The whole reason for doing this is that queries which return no records need not be run by the user - saving the user time etc. I appreciate that this query will take a considerable amount of time - given that it could be as many as 70 being run one after another.
Thanks,
Evan

The results of my union query of 2 separate tables looks like:
Name - Count of Participations
Joe Blow - 7
Harry Smith - 11
Kate Upshaw - 8
Joe Blow - 3
Harry Smith - 5
Kate Upshaw - 13
I need to combine the duplicate names and total their participations to make a report look like:
Name - Count of Total Participations
Joe Blow - 10
Harry Smith - 16
Kate Upshaw - 21
