Queries :: IIF Statement In Query Criteria Based On Check Box
Jun 19, 2014
I have a form with a check box. A query is run that looks at that check box and decides what the criteria are based on that. So, if the check box is checked, it should pull in all data in the field that is a Y. If it is not checked, i want it to pull all data (Y's and N's and blanks).
I have a table(Product Change) with these fields: Tracking Number Approved (a check box) Engineering (text box that represents department) Purchasing (text box that represents department) Quality (text box that represents department) Production (text box that represents department) Customer Service (text box that represents department)
I want my query results to show all records that have the "Approved" check box...checked, and then only the records that have one of the Department fields with a null value. So I'm looking to see only records that are "Approved" and out of those....only the records with at least one department field empty(Null).
Any help doing this is SQL view would be great...or even design view.
I would like to have a table update query populate cells in a field, based on an IIf statement (below), but states that the IIf statement arguments still need to be enclosed in parentheses. I don't understand what the problem is, I have two sets of opening / closing parentheses.
I am having a problem to get my query to run properly. I have a huge IIf statement that doesn't seem to be working but I am not sure what is wrong with it. What it is supposed to do is return a good, actionable, or poor based on a specified weight and an actual weight. So what the query does is pull information from a table based on the specified weight and then using that information it should give back the correct rating in the last column.
What I want to do is set the criteria of a query to the value on a form if the form is open, and set it to a different value if the form is closed. I tried using a function on the OnLoad event of the form to set a variable called IsOpen to 1 if the form is open, and reset that variable to 0 when the form closes, but when I tried using the variable in an IIF statement in the query criteria, I got a "Its too complex" error.
Here's what I really want to do. I have a very complex form with multiple tabs and subforms. The subforms populate based on a query of what is selected and loaded into a textbox control on the first tab of the form. The first tab has a subform that is based on the main table. Rather than recreate that form, I want to copy it and change the rowsource on the first tab to a subset of the main table, and tell the query to use the textbox on the new form so I don't have to go and replicate all the other subforms. Is there a way to do that or am I just screwed?
On I form I have a combo box called cboMobileStatus.Its row source type is "Value List".The row source is: 1;" All";2;"Has";3;"None".I have a query based on table "tblCustomerContacts" and I want to limit the records returned based on the value of the combo box.So if the user selects:
* All (1) I want all records returned. * Has (2) I only want records that have a mobile number returned * None (3) I only want records that do not have a mobile number returned
The field mobile is text (to keep the leading 0)I thought of using the Switch function in the criteria of the query for field Mobile like this:
Code: Switch([Forms]![frmPrintCustomer]![cboMobileStatus]=1,([tblCustomerContacts].[Mobile]) Like "*",[Forms]![frmPrintCustomer]![cboMobileStatus]=2,([tblCustomerContacts].[Mobile]) Is Not Null,[Forms]![frmPrintCustomer]![cboMobileStatus]=3,([tblCustomerContacts].[Mobile]) Is Null)
but the query does not like it!Am I on the right track, and if so, how should I modify the code?
I have an AfterUpdate event where I want a list box to be populated based on three different criteria based on a table in my database
1. Complete = False AND 2. Supplier on form = supplier in table AND 3. Status in table = "SUPPLIER_RFQ FOLLOW-UP" OR "SUPPLIER_RE-RFQ TO OTHER SUPPLIER"
I am having trouble with the last OR statement criteria, i cannot get this to return values correctly. Here is my code:
What I am trying to do is fairly simple i just dont have the ability to correctly code what i want to do.
I want to filter my query based on some criteria in multiple columns. But i only want the query to filter based on the specific criteria if a checkbox has been selected.
Basically i want the criteria for one of the columns criteria to read
IF a check box "Check0" is selected THEN filter the column to only records that = 1 and if "Check2" then filter all records that = 2
I have a SubForm "assignments" based on a Query, which has criteria to filter dates and also to filter 0 and 1 of the checkbox ...
The question is:
How do I put in that SubForm one or more Checkbox to "enable" and "disable", only the criteria of such query? So, toggle, for example, those jobs that are not completed (Checkbox of the query=0) and those that do ...
Is there a way in access, through vba or any other means, which would allow me to either enable or disable criteria in a query based on the value of textbox??
Like i have a query that displays bookings customer has made between two dates, so i made a query and in the starting and ending date fields i get the value from form. In case if the use does not enter ending date, i would like to run the query with starting date only that displays booking made after the starting date.
Currently the starting date criteria is set to a textbox of form, and so is ending date. So if customer selects 1st April 2015 as starting date and 30th April 2015 as ending date the query should display the bookings between 1st and 30th of April. And if the user enters only 1st April in starting date it should display bookings starting from 1st April onward.
I want to create a query based on 3 combo boxes but have it so that if the field in the second or third combo box is not populated the query still runs.
Right now i have the Criteria set for the three columns that i wish to sort by as seen below.
This gives me the correct query result but im forced to make a selection from each combo box. Is there a way to progamme it so that if I only make a selection from the first combobox and leave the others blank i can still get results in a query?
I have a very simple query on an accounts form to show a running transaction history.
Identifying from the TransactionID (shown for display purposes only - normally hidden) three or four postings make up one transaction.
Using TransactionID 10 as an example, I'd like to have a sum of total [Credit]-[Debit] and have the query display on one line (either at the top of £1,429, or at the bottom of £16,995) to identify this is in fact one transaction, having three posts.
Transaction 9 will have obviously have one total, as this is a single post.
11 the same as 10, by having one total Transaction Value either at the top of the row or bottom.
I am currently working on a project to develop an access database to manage a roster of calls to clients on a daily basis based on two general criteria:
1. Pre-determined days selected by the client. (e.g. Call Mon, Wed, Fri only. This can change as client requirements change.)
2. Ad-hoc changes based on the client’s circumstances. (e.g. No call from 27/7/2015 to 29/7/ 2015)
I have managed to successfully deal with the second of these with the following expression in a query:
CallToday?: IIf((Date()>=[NoCallFrom] And Date()<=[NoCallTo]),"No","Yes")
However dealing with the first is a little more difficult to work out. I have tried a multivalue lookup field with multiple days selectable, but constructing an IIF query to deal with these multiple values is proving quite a challenge.
I am thinking of using a table with days of the week and a junction table to allow the multi-selection, but I may need constructing the relationships and the query here.
I am trying to run a query and display the results in a report (the report side of it is childs play and not a problem). The problem I am having is that I have a search form which should allow the user to search any one of 6 fields (text boxes) or a combination of each.
If the user enters something into a field then that search criteria must match. I wanted to have it so if all fields are left blank then it will show all entries in the database (but it isn't, it shows a blank report). I also wanted it to allow partial completion of boxes.
So for instance if I have 5 customers (Jones, Jonson, Jonus, jimjonkins, Janis) and I type "Jon" into the name field then I would like it to show the first 4 records as they all contain "jon" somewhere in their name but its not, its only allowing exact matches.
I currently have '[forms]![Search_Customer]![Search_Name]'.
I am able to successfully set one of the above as a criteria just fine.I am stalled on trying to combine two or more of the above in an iif statement. Here is what I 'think it should look like:
In other words, in a separate field, I would like to print a period name such as above.I have not been able to find any reference to connect these long criteria together in one query expression.
My workaround is to use a union query. That works, but it is a little clumsy due to some outer joins which require a separate query. If that is my only solution, I will run with it.
I'm working on a published sharepoint web access database, writing a criteria expression in data source of a combo box.The field I'm setting criteria is called SharePointAuthor.
I wrote this critea: IIf(CurrentWebUser(1)="John Doe","*",CurrentWebUser(1))
Trying to show all records when currentwebuser is John Doe, otherwise, show only records created by currentwebuser.Funny thing is that it turns out "John Doe" couldn't see any records, while other users can see their own records as expected.
In my query, I am looking to set the criteria by having the user pick 1 of 3 options, or a combination of those three options. Here's an example:
The fields are Manager, Employee, Job Function. Let's also say that my criteria is David, John, Busy Work. I want to be able to pull results by David, John, Busy Work, or a combination of those three.
My Query for picking 1 of the 3 looks like this:
Field: Manager Employee Job Function Criteria: David Or: John Busy Work
When I try to add additional Or statements, it never works. An example would be in the fourth line of the criteria, I add:
David John
Running the query produces only the results for David. Mixing it up produces only the results from the first item in the criteria (Manager over Employee over Job Function).
I have 3 queries populating 3 subreports on a report, i have a checkbox on my main form i launch the report from - i reference it in a filter on the form to ignore certain error types - id like it do to the same in the queries that populate the reports
So the reports atm give - an over all count of error types, a count per person and then a breakdown on type per person
Thats all fine but id like the option to ignore one type of error (as we sometimes look at it and sometimes dont).
A database I'm creating contains records of events within an academic year. There will be many events in the table, and I want to create a query to show me only those events in the current academic year.
I figure that I need to use some sort of iff statement to make this happen; something which says:
IF the current date is before 31-Aug-CurrentYear THEN display records in the range 01-Sep-LastYear and 31-Aug-ThisYear ELSE display records in the range 01-Sep-ThisYear and 31-Aug-NextYear.
I've had a go at writing this, but can't get my code to work. Can anyone help?
Is there a problem with using an IIf statement in the criteria of a query. If ther isn't then is there a problem with using a Between...And statement inside the IIf statement. Or, does anybody see a problem with this IIf statement being in the criteria of a query.
IIf([blinks_test_end].[Blinks]<>[blinks_test_start].[Blinks],([daily_extract].[Reading_Date]) Between [blinks_test_start]![Reading_Date] And [blinks_test_end]![Reading_date],Null)
[blinks_test_end] and [blinks_test_start] are queries that use the table [daily_extract] the query that I am trying to run uses these queries and the table, however, I have nothing joined. The IIf statement is in the criteria of the [daily_extract].[Reading_Date] field.
I have the following IIF statement in the criteria of a query (design view). There are three options: (1) Confirmed (2) Failed (3) Pending. Options 1 and 2 are working fine however when option 3 is selected, no records are returned... not quite sure if I've written the IIF correctly for option 3.
IIf([Forms]![Pending_Bookings]![Confirmed]=-1,"Booking Confirmed") Or IIf([Forms]![Pending_Bookings]![Failed]=-1,"Failed Booking") Or IIf([Forms]![Pending_Bookings]![Pending]=-1,([Status_Codes].[StatusName])<>"Booking Confirmed"<>"Failed Booking")
