I am using the IIf function as follows
Exp1:IIf(field A = "a string value",1,0) this returns the correct value.
However when I try to add a second condition using the IIf function, or use the And Or condition, I do not get the correct value.
I am trying to get a value of 1 in the Exp:Col when field B has a value that is different from field A.
What is the correct syntax? What am I missing??
The code I have is.
Code:
Private Sub Command26_Click()
If Forms![test site]![prp test].Form.[A Right Answer] = -1 Then
Forms![test site]![number correct] = Forms![test site]![number correct] + 1
End If
DoCmd.FindNext
End Sub
Then when clicked it checks a yes/no box to see if "A right Answer" is the correct yes. Then it should pop to the main form and take the number correct cell and add one to it. I am trying to get the record to go to the next record inside the sub-form but docmd.findnext seems to be wrong too.
Hey,
I am working on my first access project (please be patient and try to explain like to a child). My problems however are past the basic level so please bear with me ....
I am working on a datbase which deals with laboratory data from patients which have different date stamps - ie. each record has a 'valid time' (time of blood drowing) a 'transaction time' (time of entry into the DB) and 'delete time' (deleted recordes are just given a date and not really deleted).
The idea is that the user should be able to watch the status of the DB at different past dates (ie what did the doctor know about a patient blood tests a month ago when he made the decision to give him a medication which eventually harmed his kideneys). The user should also be able to change values of records, delete records (which means to add a date to the deleted date field) and to add new records.
I want to do it all using one form.
Things I have done so far:
1. Query by form which locates a specific record (Main-Form & singleRecQuery)
2. A subform in Main-Form which displays the results of singleRecQuery (Single-subform). The query and subform aer updated by a macro once I enter all the data into main-form.
3. A qury by form derived from Main-Form which locates a range of values (Range-subfrom & Range-Query)
My problem spans both forms and queries (so I am posting in both forums):
1. I want to create an update query that will draw its data from Single-subform (the form which displays the results of singleRecQuery). I have created the qury without a problem but the fields in the form are locked for entering data (maybe because they are bound). Is there any way to enter data in such a form which is based on a query and then use the new data in another query ? (I tried allowing data entery in the forms properties but it deos't work).
2. I have tried to put a criterion in the queries on the "Delete Date" field so that the quries will not display the deleted records (I have tried "is null" "is empty" and "is missing") but when I run the query with these parameters I get no records back.
3. In the form I have a command buton which runs a macro that runs the qury and then update dthe subform. Is there a way to get this button to run different macros after different events in the form or do I have to add a button for every specific task I want.
4. As I have mentioned the Main-fom is supposed to run 3 differnt queries and display the results on the same form. I know how to make a subform invisable but is there a way to place all three result subforms in the same spot ?
Sorry it is so long
Thanks

Hi people ... here 's want i ve been trying to do for ages...
Subtract the result of this query
SELECT sum(tbl_order.sunoloaxias)
FROM tbl_order, tbl_client
WHERE tbl_client.arithmo = tbl_order.onoma_arithmo and tbl_client.arithmo=220;
from this query
SELECT sum(tbl_cash.amount) AS Eκφρ1
FROM tbl_client, tbl_cash
WHERE (tbl_client.arithmo)=220 And ((tbl_cash.pelatis)=tbl_client.arithmo);
I am trying to put it somehow in a nested query but i can t manage... Please send any answers that can help me
Thanks!!
I have done smoe baisc queries to sort, filter and report on data.How do I create a nested query where I don't repeat all the information across the query results line? Is there a way I can build a nested query to give all the SMCode codes associated with each appointment in one column separated by a coma?I have a table with appointments (APPTS):
RecID
ADate
ATime
Durantion
PVID
Desc
Case#
Then I have a table with Orders related to these appointments (ORDERS):
RecID
Case#
SMCode
SMDate
Here's my query:
SELECT DISTINCTROW Appts.RecID, Appts.ADate, Appts.ATime, Appts.Durantion, Appts.PVID, Appts.Desc, Orders.SMCode
FROM Appts INNER JOIN Orders ON Appts.[Case#] = Orders.[Case#];
My results look like this:
RecID ADate ATime Duration PVID Desc SMCode
RecID ADate ATime Duration PVID Desc SMCode
RecID ADate ATime Duration PVID Desc SMCode
I need my results to look like this:
RecID ADate ATime Duration PVID Desc SMCode,SMCode,SMCode...
I am trying to create a database which crosschecks specifications against building codes. My problem is that it's not feasable to put all of the information about a Building into the Room table, though many codes require information about the Building in order to classify the room. How would I count (or list/get details from) a room in the Rooms table, for use in an SQL statement about the Buildings table.If there are up to 5 rooms in the building, do at least 2 rooms contain a fire escape?
My Rooms table contains information about if the room has a fire escape, as well as references its parent Building ID. How would I query the rooms to count the Rooms within all buildings, and subsequently query all Buildings which have less than 2 rooms with fire escapes?I need it to return a list of the buildings which do not conform to this code.
Now this is literally my second day of programming/working with Access, but I've yet to find an answer dispite hours of searching.I think I can adapt it for the 100+ building codes/references I'll need to implement. It would be perfect to find an SQL-only way of doing this, without going into modules etc...
I have a set of two queries (which I'll call A and B, for convenience). Query A reads a table containing customer order numbers, a sequentially-assigned line number for each item requested by a customer on a particular order, and a part number associated with each order line. The line numbers are not integers, but run out to three decimals - so 1.000, 1.100, 1.150, 1.200, etc. would all be valid line numbers. All Query A does is to sort the table, with the primary (first) sort being order number, and with line number being the secondary (2nd) sort. Each record also contains a field equal to the integer value of the line number, so for lines 1.000, 1.100, 1.150, 1.200, this third value would always be 1; similarly, for lines 2.000, 2.100, and 2.200, the third value would be 2.
Query B uses query A as its source of input, and performs grouping (using the "Group By" function) so that query B's output displays only one record for each unique combination of customer order number and INTEGER line number; the part number displayed on each row of query B's output is supposed to be the part number on the first row of query A's output whose order number and integer line number correspond to each group in query B. (I am using the syntax of "First(Part Number)" in query B to report this.) This seems to be working most of the time, but not consistently; sometimes, for each unique order number / integer line number combination, Query B reports a part number from the wrong row of Query A. So, for example, order 12345, integer line 1, as reported from query B, may report the part number on line 1.300 from Query A, instead of line 1.000 from query A as intended.
Does anyone know a fix for this? I've got a team of anxious coworkers who are hoping for it.
Thanks a lot!
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)

I am trying to calculate the time between two dates where one date field might be blank or not. Where the field is blank I want to use the current date to perform the calculation. So far I have the following but I keep receiving an error message saying that the expression has a function with too many arguments. Is there a simpler solution to this?
IIF([LastOfEnd_Date] IS NULL,(DateDiff(w,[LastOfDischarge_Date],NOW()))/4, IIF(Not isnull([LastOfEnd_Date], Abs(DateDiff("w",[LastOfDischarge_Date].[LastOfEnd_Date]))/4
I'm trying to make a nested if then statement in a query field, and I can't figure out why I can't get my formula to work:
Volume: IIf([MethodCode]="K",[total]*12.54*0.026873,IIf([MethodCode]="S",([length]*[width]*[depth])/2,IIf([MethodCode]="M" And [Location]="SH",[total]*5.08*0.026873,IIf([MethodCode]="M" And [Location]="C",[total]*18.58*0.026873," "))))
I keep getting the "data type mismatch in criteria expression" error. If I separate out all the individual if then statements individually, they work. But if I connect them all as a nested if then it doesn't work.
I am trying to get the output of several nested IIF expressions to show in only one filed in the table created. The output needs to be captured in a table. I am staring with create table to get it to work before I go ahead and use the sql to update the original table (the table the data is from)
I can get each to run fine independently and the whole thing runs too, the issue is it wants to put each expression in a new column, thus it is forcing me to label the expression.
Can I change this to only output in one column or add some more sql to do so?
Here is the SQL (table and filed names have been changed to protect the innocent)
BTW, I cannot change the Table the data comes from, I am stuck with the single table structure (BOO).

What is the best approach to returning calculated results in a query. I have been using nested IIf statements that include DateAdd but I think that I am at a point where there must be a better way.
I want my query to calculate a date based on:
1) A Type field from my table
2) A calculated date based on other query fields.
My query has the following fields:
[Type] [Action 1] [Projected Action 1] [Projected Action 1 Revised] [Action 2]
I want to create a calculated field for [Projected Action 2] that says:
If [Type] is "A" then
if [Action 2] Is NotNull, Null
if [Action 1] is NotNull, [Action 1] + 10 workdays
if [Projected Action 1 Revised] is NotNull, [Projected Action 1 Revised] + 10 workdays
if [Projected Action 1] is NotNull, [Projected Action 1] + 10 workdays
[Code] ....
I would like to keep using nested IIf but I keep running into problems and I thought that there is probably a better way.
Some essential background first. I have a Balances table which records balances by date. I also have an Issues table where problems are logged. There is a one-to-many relationship between Balances and Issues (i.e. each Balance can have multiple Issues). I also have a Comments table where updates for each Issue are recorded. There is again a one-to-many relationship between Issues and Comments (i.e. each Issue can have multiple Comments)
There are two key date fields in the Issues table :FlagDate (the date an Issue was flagged by a user for investigation)
ResolveDate (the date said investigation was brought to a conclusion)
There is also a date field in the Comments table :UpdatedWhen (the date any given comment was added)
So the basic flow is that an Issue gets flagged (FlagDate), then various comments are added (multiple UpdatedWhen's) and finally the Issue gets resolved (ResolveDate)
I need to incorporate a trend graph which will show the counts ofNew (i.e. new issues flagged as of each day) Cleared (i.e. issues resolved each day)
Updated (i.e. issues not yet resolved but updated each day)
Unchanged (i.e. issues not yet resolved and not updated each day)
Outstanding (i.e. all unresolved issues as of each day)
This is the SQL I've put together to get that table of information on which to base my chart :
Code:
SELECT [tblBalances].[BalanceDate] AS AsOfDate,
(SELECT COUNT([tblIssues].[IssueID])
FROM [tblIssues]
WHERE [tblIssues].[Flag] = True
AND [tblIssues].[FlagDate] = [tblBalances].[BalanceDate]) AS New,
[Code] .....
The subqueries for 'New', 'Cleared' and 'Outstanding' work perfectly; the resultant dataset gives me one record for each date in the Balance table and correctly counts the number of issues falling into each of those buckets.
The problem I have is with the 'Updated' bucket. If a flagged issue happens to be updated twice on the same day (which is perfectly acceptable), it counts this twice as well. I don't want this as I just want to know how many issues were updated on any given day - not how many updates there were.
I tried using COUNT(DISTINCT) in the 'Updated' subquery but it gives me a syntax error - on further research, I don't think it's possible to use the DISTINCT keyword in a COUNT subquery (at least not easily)
I also tried grouping by IssueID within that 'Updated' subquery but it still gives me the duplicate count within the same IssueID (and returns nulls rather than zeroes for those days where no updates occured)
I think I need to add a subquery within the subquery () to only return the latest comment as of the date in question - something along the lines of :
Code:
(SELECT TOP 1 [tblComments].[UpdatedWhen]
FROM [tblComments]
WHERE [tblComments].[IssueID] = [tblIssues].[IssueID]
AND DateValue([tblComments].[UpdatedWhen]) <= [tblBalances].[BalanceDate]
ORDER BY [tblComments].[UpdatedWhen] DESC) AS UpdatedWhen
But how to do this, nor if it is even feasible in Access to begin with.
I have three tables, tblPeople, tblAddresses and tblVehicles. I have a form called frmPeople that shows a single person record, and has subforms with the list of addresses and vehicles for that person (each record has several). I want to create a single search form with each of the fields in my tblPeople, tblAddresses and tblVehicle tables, and allow the user to type anything into any of the fields on the search form, and have the search form fetch records that match.
So far, I have the query built, and the tables all linked the right way (I think), and I have all the search fields coded. And it works GREAT... except for this one little issue: If I do a search, and I put "Smith" in the last name field, I will get several Smiths in my search result, one for each address and vehicle combination. In other words, if I have ONE Smith in the table, and two vehicles and two addresses for that Smith, the query results give me FOUR Smiths! One with Vehicle1 and Address1, one with Vehicle2 and Address1, one with Vehicle1 and Address2, and one with Vehicle2 and Address2.
What I would LIKE is to have ONE record in the query results, and that record shows me that one Smith. And if I then search for "Plymouth" in the VehicleType field, and I have Smith in the name field, I'll get ONE record, and it will be the one of Smith with his Plymouth (Vehicle2).
Here is how my query looks right now (this one ONLY has the last name and vehicle search function to save space), and this is the one that gives me multiple results (which I do NOT want, unless multiple PEOPLE match the search criteria):
Code:
SELECT DISTINCTROW tblPeople.LastName, tblPeople.FirstName, tblPeople.PersonID, tblAddresses.Address, tblVehicles.Vehicle, tblVehicles.Plate, tblVehicles.VehicleYear
FROM tblPeople LEFT JOIN tblAddresses ON tblPeople.PersonID = tblAddresses.PersonID
WHERE (((tblPeople.LastName) Like "*" & [NameField] & "*")
AND ((tblVehicles.Vehicle) Like "*" & [VehicleField]));
Did I write the query wrong?
I have a table called Coded_Data with one particular field called Codes. This field list a number and a respective code to identify what type of code it is. For instance 123456789-AD...123456789-ADS. I am wanting to create to two columns. One listing all work orders coded with AD and the other withADS. When I use the Like condition with % it returns both AD and ADS in same column. I understand why because the "%AD" returns anything that starts with AD so this is why I get both codes. I only want to get the the AD codes in one column and ADS in the other. I have duplicated the table twice since I am trying to retrieve data from the same field and table but display in 2 separate columns. The duplicated table has a different alias. The problem is in the where clause.
where (((coded_data.codes) LIKE "%AD")) or ((coded_data_1.codes) LIKE "%ADS");
I have a simple nested query that is not working as expected. My inner query returns 102 records but when I run with outer query I only get 96 records. Below is my query, I don't really want to pull the same fields from both tables but I was doing to test. The values that are missing are those that don't exist with the monthenddate 8/31/2014 - a left join should fix that but doesn't seem to be working ..
Code:
Select distinct a.entity, a.gl_account,a.profit_center,[Open Items_1].profit_center,[Open Items_1].gl_account,[Open Items_1].entity
from(
SELECT DISTINCT [Open Items].entity, [Open Items].gl_account, [Open Items].profit_center
FROM [Open Items]
)a
left outer JOIN [Open Items] AS [Open Items_1] ON
(a.profit_center = [Open Items_1].profit_center) AND (a.gl_account = [Open Items_1].gl_account) AND (a.entity = [Open Items_1].entity)
Where ([Open Items_1].MonthEndDate=#8/31/2014#)
I am trying to copy notes from one table to another table where a condition has to be met and I can't figure out how to do that in an APPEND query.
Each record has a unique number that comes into my Initial Table in my Access database from a construction program I download. In this particular table both the [DNJTNo] and [DNVersionNmbr] fields can have duplicate numbers. However, when I run the query I want it to add a record to the second table only after the query checks that the [DNJTNo] in combination with the [DNVersionNmbr], is not already in the table. If it is, I do NOT want it appended to the second table. (I have attached a picture of the query in APPEND design stage).
I have a table that has 4 fields; id_vl, id_product, date_vl, vl.
Basically each product is valued either on a monthly, weekly or daily basis. I want to create a filter that is based on a text box that filters the dates from which one can look at the dates of valuation and the associated values.
The problem comes with the products valued on a weekly or monthly basis. For example, if I simply say [tblvl].[date_vl]>=Me.textbox, and me.textbox = 13/09/2013, yet the last value date for a weekly product was 09/09/2013, this record won't be included. Therefore I need to set the date of the previous record as the filter. This is my attempt but it doesnt work...
Code:
SELECT tblVL.Id_VL, tblVL.Id_Product, tblVL.Date_VL, tblVL.VL,
FROM tblVL
WHERE iif(tblvl.date_vl<>me.fees_start_date, [tblVL].Date_VL>=(SELECT
MAX(PrevDate.Date_VL)
FROM tblVL AS PrevDate WHERE PrevDate.Date_VL<[tblVL].[Date_VL] AND PrevDate.Id_Product=tblVL.Id_Product;),tblvl.date_vl>=Me.fees_start_date)
;
I have a sql to run and I have to use many values as parameters (over 1000), which is why I am trying to use a SQL inside a IN condition.
I am testing the sql with only 1 value for now. The parameter I am using will be 2208287. This returns in a matter of seconds.
Code:
Select a.po_id, a.sku12, sum(a.unit) AS Units, sum(a.weighted) AS Weighted_Units, ((sum(a.weighted))/ (sum(a.unit))) AS weighted_turntime
From(
SELECT ds.src_evnt_txn_tmst AS alloc_ts, bc.src_evnt_txn_tmst AS ship_ts, ds.Po_id, Left(bc.sku16,12) AS SKU12, ds.distro_id AS alloc_distro, bc.distro_id AS Ship_distro, Sum(bc.unit_qty) AS Unit,
[Code] .....
but it does not work when I add a sql inside the IN condition. It actually runs forever and eventually I have to break it to stop. why this is not working with a sql inside a IN condition.
Also note:
table ROSS_REPORT_DISTRO_DTLS_SUM is a linked table
table BOL_CONTNR_SKU16_RTED is a linked table
table CopyOfdata is a local table (This is where I will put all of my values to act as parameters)
Code:
Select a.po_id, a.sku12, sum(a.unit) AS Units, sum(a.weighted) AS Weighted_Units, ((sum(a.weighted))/ (sum(a.unit))) AS weighted_turntime
From(
SELECT ds.src_evnt_txn_tmst AS alloc_ts, bc.src_evnt_txn_tmst AS ship_ts, ds.Po_id, Left(bc.sku16,12)
AS SKU12, ds.distro_id AS alloc_distro, bc.distro_id

I want to find unmatched records, where there is a condition. Specifically, which employees did not get a specific mail.
My employees are in this table:
tblEmployees
---------------
EmployeeID (PK)
FullName (text)
and sent mails are logged in tblMailsSent
tblMailsSent
--------
MailID (FK)
EmployeeID (FK)
so I want to find all the employees in tblEmployees whose EmployeeID may or may not be in tblMailsSent with some other MailID's but definitely not with the specific one I am looking for.
I find my own method for doing this rather clumsy, so do you happen to have a nice recipe?
I want to update a table called tblFinalOrder, that looks like this:
In particular, I want to update each column separately with the number 1 taken from table tblSAP_XWP_SW:
My problem is that Access doesn't properly update the table how I want. I join both tables using an INNER JOIN on the SAP number. In the column AEMenge you see some 1's. So what he should do is writing these 1's into the appropriate column in my tblFinalOrder table. The condition is that the SAP number must already be in my tblSAP_XWP_SW table. If he doesn't find a 1, then skip it.
Here is my code so far. This one should update column "DynaCT". The funny thing is that DynaCT isn't available in my columnlabel column but he writes a 1 anyways (or in this case anohter number, I was playing around with it). This is what I don't understand.
Code:
UPDATE tblFinalOrder AS a
INNER JOIN tblSAP_XWP_SW AS b
ON a.SAPNr = b.sapxwpsw_sapnr
SET a.DynaCT = 1
WHERE a.SAPNR IN (SELECT sapxwpsw_sapnr FROM tblSAP_XWP_SW);
I mean, he should only write the 1 into the specific column of table tblFinalOrder, if he finds the SAP number in tblSAP_XWP_SW and if there is a 1 in this line in column AEMenge.
condition formatting a date field in access.The query used for this field produces a date or "NA" based on the formula below. so when the date shows up as "NA" then i have set the condition formatting of the cell to grey and this works works well. but when it shows up with a date it doesnt format to a grey.the formatting pane has these two expressions
1. Q_Induction_Date = "NA" then grey the cell
2. Q_Induction_Date < DATE() then grey the cell and this DOESNT work. i have also tried the function Now() and that doesnt work either.
Formula i use in the query is
Q_Induction_Date: IIf([y].[INDUCTION_NA]=-1,"NA",IIf(IsNull([induction_date]),"NA",Format([induction_date],"dd/mm/yyyy")))
