I am trying to split a field that typically contains a revision level and a revision date in a single entry as follows:
(Rev Level) {Space} (Date: MM/DD/YY)
REL 10-30-14
A 11-20-14
C 11/13/14
Note: dates use either - or / as separators. 99% of the time, there is a space between revision level and date.
Is there a simple way to write an update query to take the value in the current field, strip away all letters and spaces (but not - or /), and insert the remaining value into the revision_date field?
I need to be able to move 2 fields from the previous record to the next record. Does anyone know how to do this?
What I am doing is the following:
I have a table with 3 fields. I am using a form to enter the information. Two of the fields on the form will be information from the previous record. How can I bring that information forward to automatically be on the form and in the table?
Hi, found this forum looking for an answer to this question. Hope someone can help.
I'm trying to build a database that tracks electronic components. Mostly the database tracks location movements, but also repair issues and other possible changes. I'm thinking the best way is a database that has a record for each move, and any other changes are included in each record.
My question is, is there a way I can easily have the current information be propogated over to a new record, where it could then be modified? Example: I'm looking at a record of an item that was just returned to me. I would like to click a button on the form which would create a new record, then move all currently displayed information into that record.
I need to know a query to pull information from two date fields into one. I have a BuriedStartDate field and an AerialStartDate field. In a third field I have PlacementStart. I would like to put the date into the PlacementStart field which ever is the oldest date bewtween the BuriedStartDate and AerialStartDate. It has been awhile since I have done any queries on Access 2007. I am completely self taught in Access.
I am trying to create a report that has a header ( all ok ) then could have 1 or 15 detail lines ( all ok ) which contain cost for each line
then I have a footer with the subtotals of the costs and also bank details then I have footnotes
What I need the report to do is keep the subtotals, bank details and the footer notes at the bottom of the page all the time weather I have one detail line or 15 detail lines
What is happening at this time is the footer information is moving up or down depending on the number of lines I have.
I have a query that pulls data from a table called Data. I'd like to add a column to the query that will be the moving average -- For example, for a Month Beginning Date of 12/2013, it would average the SumOfCount variable for 10/2013, 11/2013, and 12/2013.
This is the sql code for my query without the moving average:
SELECT Data.Behavior, Sum(Data.Count) AS SumOfCount, Data.[Month Beginning Date], [First Name + Last Name].Wing, Data.[Full Name] FROM Data INNER JOIN [First Name + Last Name] ON Data.[Full Name] = [First Name + Last Name].[Full Name] GROUP BY Data.Behavior, Data.[Month Beginning Date], [First Name + Last Name].Wing, Data.[Full Name] HAVING (((Data.Behavior)="PRNs") AND ((Data.[Full Name])=[forms]![report parameters]![fullname]));
I have a date field (DueDate) that I am comparing against the current date (Date()). When the current date is greater than the DueDate I filter just those dates. I have done that without any problems. Now I am trying to figure out how to compare that filtered information to show that the DueDate is either over 30 days, over 60 days, or over 90 days overdo. If it shows up on either one of those lists I do NOT want it to show up on the other lists. I also want to have a counter by states. For example:
Current Date DueDate State a. 9/22/14 2/1/14 GA *(90) b. 9/22/14 8/20/14 WV *(30) c. 9/22/14 7/1/14 WV *(60) d. 9/22/14 8/19/14 GA *(30) e. 9/22/14 7/31/14 GA *(30) f. 9/22/14 3/1/14 WV *(90) g. 9/22/14 7/20/14 SC *(60)
I have a database I'm creating for DVD/blu-ray sales. I currently have a order system in place in a subform, which uses a combo box to find the customer and fills in all the information in the rest of the subform. One piece of information is the date of sale.
I need to be able to have the ability to change the price of the DVDs and have a history of sales with the right price. The easiest way to do this seemed to be by Date of sale. So the price is linked to the date of sale, when the price changes, all orders before that change use the old price, after use the current price.
I was wondering if there is anyway to have a second subform on the same page and us the date of sale from subform1 and have it display the price in the second subform?
How to implement a functionality into my access database. The related tables required for this functionality can be found as an attachment.
When the information has been entered into the tables by the user, I would like to calculate the difference between the information for each part within the same table. The main columns for which the difference have to be calculated are: [RefObsInfo->RefSources] and [AltObsInfo->StatusAltSource] and [GenObsInfo->GenSources]. The values for these fields are restricted to 3 or 4 different ones. I also would like to show if the GenEstAvailable columns are changed, but that's for later.
In order to calculate this difference a query has to select for each Part the information related to the last date AND a date which has been specified by the user (with the previous date as max). For this the user is asked to give a from date, which she/he can select from a combobox. This combobox has a standard selected value which is the MaxDate-1, i.e. the previous date. The difference should be calculated from the previous date to the last date. I would prefer to give each (predefined) difference a specific action to show the user the difference in a matter of seconds.
I found the attached example a while back (can't find the site again though ) and it calculates a moving average. I've hacked out the parts I need for my own work and I can create my moving average query without an issue.
However, I need to extract the MA data into a table so planned on using append. I kept getting type errors so I tried make table to see what type it was creating and it appears to be Short Text rather than a number.
I've added an extra button and Make Table query to the example.
As far as I can tell from the code, the moving average value when calculated is a Single. However, when I write it to the table, its a Short Text.
How do I make the created Table use Number Type for my calculated moving average?
I have a table of events that includes fields for ages, a Start Age and a End Age.
I want to make a query that pulls up how many programs have been provided to a given age group. How can I make it so that the query will understand to include records that have the given age group in between the Start Age and End Age fields? I.e. if I set the query to 3rd Grade, records that start at 2nd Grade and end with 4th Grade are included in the results as well.
In the scheme below, I want to fetch all the info in Table3 for all the Tiers that has the AppID in Table2. There could be more than 1 Tier using the AppID. I don't know if I'm clear though.
Code:
Table1 Table2 Table3
AppID (PK) _ AutoNb (PK) AutoNB Name Tier (FK) ---_ Name - AppID (FK) \_ Tier (PK)
Here's my failing attempt...
Code:
SELECT Table3.* FROM Table3 WHERE Table3.Tier = (SELECT AppID FROM Table1 WHERE Table1.AppID = 2002);
I have a DB to keep track of my employees. I have one table with named EmployeeT with the basic information like name, address, phone number, etc. And another table named EmployeeHistoryT which tell me about there hisorty in the company, basically, If they were Late, did not show up, cancelled from that day. They share a relationship threw the employee ID. IN the history table, I have DateofAction:, TypeOfAction:, and Description:. In the type of action area I have it set to were you type in what they did, wether it be Late, Did not Show up, Cancelled, etc. I want to be able to get a total about of Late, Cancels, etc. I want to know that John Smith was Late 16 times, cancelled 10 times, and Did not show up 2 times. Is this possible with only one feild.
I am trying to connect individual responses to a survey to a series of variables describing each environment where the survey was conducted. I have about 1,400 individual survey responses (of about 34 questions each that have been separated into columns) and about 42 environments that are described with 30 different criteria each. They are matched by the environment description
- A line for each respondent and their survey answers - On that same line would be the criteria of each environment.
Thus, the environment criteria should be repeated several times..However, when I join the fields in a query and require both fields to be equal, When I prioritize the environment panel, I only receive 42 records and the survey responses are blank. Prioritizing the survey panel gives 1,400 rows, but omits the environment info.
how do I populate the environment information variables on each row of the survey responses, even if that information duplicates the same variables on other rows?
So there's a memo field in my database that has a copies of an entire email message. I was wondering if there was a way for me to search for, extract, and place specific information from the text in the email into a new field automatically for each of them.
Retrieval of data from a query and putting it into a textbox on a form. I currently have a form where I would like to put in a Job Number, and then hit an "Update" button and it will show some of the data fields associated with that Job Number. I have a table called "All Jobs" and each Job Number is unique. Where I'm really having issues with is in regards to Dates and Boolean fields.
In one form, I put in a job number and it will bring up the Company, Motor type, Received Date, and Quote. I have been able to retrieve the Company, Motor, and Quote with a DLookUp expression using a query. The expression looks like:
CompanyName.Value = DLookUp("Company","Approved Job Form - Find Job Info").
CompanyName would be the name of the textbox on the form, with "Company" the field within the "Approved Job Form - Find Job Info" query. The query itself uses the job number entered onto the form and returns the other data fields associated with that job number. Running the query by itself returns the correct information. My issue comes with using the Date Received field. It seems that because that field type is a Short Date, my DLookUp expression keeps prompting the debugger in the code. Currently I have:
RcvDate.Value = DLookUp("Receive Date","Approved Job Form - Find Job Info")
This will not bring the date from the query into my text box like the others.
In another form, I'm also having issues with a Boolean data field. I would like to have a query that looks up a job number, and if my data field (Job On Hold) is checked (True), I would like it to return a value of "Job On Hold / In Progress" into a text box. If it is unchecked (False), I would like it to return "Job Approved". I've tried a bunch of different ways to make it work, but I'm really stumped. The makeshift code I last tried (I've tried this numerous ways, so I'm not sure if I was closer before) is:
Dim jobstatus As Boolean jobstatus = DLookup("Job on Hold", "Job Status Form - Search Status") If jobstatus = False Then Status.Value = "Job Approved" Else Status.Value = "Job On Hold / In Progress" End If
I have a need to strip of letters from a string but i needs to look for / as the length would change, below is an example of the data I am working with
record 1 example ) REP/1349/999/426066/XX/9 record 2 example ) REP/UDKBS01N/1/448174/XX/
what i need to extract is
1) = 1349 2) = UDKBS01N
I need to get the information between the first / and the second / is there a function in access to get this.
I am trying to create a query where a user will enter information in boxes (any combination) on a form and a query will bring up the joined information from 4 different tables but I do not know where to start with the relationships on the query let alone the best method to search.
To start it off I have attached a db with the tables and the form I want the user to enter the search criteria into as well as my attempt at a query.
Okay so basically below is the table I'm linking to a list box, the field i'm focusing on is the 'Disallowed' field:
Now this is the form i'm linking it too:
As you can see the list box on the right is currently just showing the whole column under the Disallowed list, but I want it to show the specific country, obviously I'm using a single form template but the information changes depending on what country i'm on (I presume I need some kind of Query that uses whatever is shown in the Country box)
I was trying to use SELECT * from tblCountries where [Country]='"&forms!frmCountryDetail!Country&"'" but this is giving me an error from the [Country] tag so this isn't working:
Currently am trying to get together two separate Access Databases into one, which is the way it was always supposed to be.
Basically, this person accidentally created a duplicate of the database in question, and has been updating both independently at different times, meaning that whilst a lot of the database information is duplicate, there are some instances where each separate database copy has unique information on both existing contacts, and new unique contacts.
The database itself is about schools, and has tables concerning information such as calls made, contact details, school details, etc etc. Obviously all of this needs putting back together into one set of tables in one file.
I've been messing around with append and import functions, but am having issues with duplicate ID fields with append queries, and a general lack of direction on the best way to go about fixing this problem, if its even possible.
i have been trying to create an employee database to record:
1. Name , Address 2. Telephone 3. Date of birth 4. employee ID# 5. Emergency contact -name, address, telephone 6. Photograph 7. Other pertinent information related to employees
So far I have incorporated the contacts database forms into my new database but I am unable to link the forms into one form that will incorporate all the information needed. Is there an existing employee database that I may edit to suit my purposes?
