Queries :: One Parameter Form For Several Query
Jul 9, 2014
I have always used parameter forms for inputing query/report criteria. However, they have always been for one query or report. However, all searches I have done for trying to use one form for several queries all I find is a simple response of "Create a form and then direct all the queries to grab the parameter from the form.". Sounds simple enough but I can never get it to work.
I have created a macro that runs 12 Append queries. I have also created a parameter form that has an unbound combo box. The combo box is fed by a query that gathers all the Data Dates for the user to select from. So if there are 24 different data dates then the combo box displays them all.
I tried creating a macro that first opens the form then opens the query, however, it runs the query before I can finish entering the criteria in the form. Then I just get a pop up of "You are about to append 0 records..."I have found several walk-throughs for having a query use a form to grab parameter, but have not been able to find one that shows you how to set up one form to run several queries.
I keep trying to find an answer, then give up and continue manually entering 12 dates for 12 queries when they pop up after running the macro. Now I need to create a macro that runs 24 queries and I don't want to have to go through 24 parameter pop-ups.

I have a parameter query using a form to collect the data. I put LIKE and wildcard enclosing the parameter to bypass the criteria if the data box is empty. It works well. I have another parameter of date type that uses between two dates. How can I bypass the criteria if I leave the data boxes blank?

I have a table which holds information on audits that have been carried out on staff member's actions. The 'Supervisor' field is populated via a combo box which is linked to a separate table (tblSupervisors).
I am now trying to build a query to allow me to extract all audits that have been carried out on a specific supervisor - rather than the criteria to be [Enter Supervisor Name] and allowing text entry, I thought it would be better to have form that pops up with a combo box that is used to select the supervisor (from tblSupervisors);
So far:
- Form "Supervisor_Select" is created, and has a combo box that looks up from tblSupervisors
- Macros as specified in the instructions are created (Open Dialog, Close Dialog, OK and Cancel)
- Query is done, all bar the criteria expression on the desired field.
- Module is created as described in the instructions, and is called "Supervisor_Select"
I have tried putting the following in the criteria;
[Forms]![Supervisor_Select]![cboSupervisor], however I think I am missing the bit where the query opens the "Supervisor_Select" form?? Will this only work from a button where the on click event runs the 'Open Dialog' macro and then runs the query?

I had created a query that I was attempting to reference a text field in a form that was open when the query is run. It wasn't working and whenever I opened the form it would prompt for the parameter before opening the form.
I ended up deleting the query to try again from scratch. But the form still asks for the parameters whenever I open the form. Why is Access still prompting me for the parameters?

I have a query with multiple fields that is being run off of 3 parameters (linked for selection in a form). The problem is, I wanted to enable a select all feature, so I included a "Or ... Is Null" part in my criteria section, so that when nothing is selected, the query/report returns all records.
Okay so the problem is whenever I run the query with nothing selected for the parameter and then return to design view for the query, a new field has been created in the query design, titled with the expression I use to pull the parameter value from the form. This is frustrating because then that is causing errors in another report I run that pulls values from that query.

I have a table that has a date column. I am assigning one group of students a test date of 4/29 and another group 4/30. I don't want access to change the column or ask for a parameter during the query, but no matter what I do, it keeps asking me for a parameter. I just want it to use the data that is already in the column.
I tried changing the column name in Excel to DOT from Date. That didn't work.I also tried changing the column to text, so that it wouldn't be a "date." That didn't work.

In my QBE, I have a field call [startDate]
In my criteria, I am passing a parameter from a form.
Currently, I am using: DateValue([forms]![myForm]![txtStartDate])
From myFORM, the value of the text box is 3/1/2013
When I run the query, it runs as expected and returns all records with the 3/1/2013 dates.
But now I want to make it where if the parameter is null.
How do I change that criteria if that parameter I am passing is null from my form's textbox? I want it to return all records that have a null entry in the [startDate].

I have multiple queries that I need to have filered by the same parameter (Client). There is a list of clients that receive this report (the report has a pre-made template with multiple tabs, hence the multiple queries).
Currently the user of the database has to filter the exported excel file for each client re-save and email basied on the client. The above is done when the user pushes the specified button on a form (which just says run report a on it).
I am trying to figure out how the write a code so that a parameter (or table if that would work better) pulls the first record of the Client query to filter the other queries being run. Then to loop that process with the second record and so on through the Client query until all the clients have had the report run for them.
Attached are the current VBA being used and the current SQL for the first query that needs the parameter value added.

It is possible to create a parameter query in Access that will search for records that match the parameter entered by the user AND contain all other records that have that value plus other text.
For instance you may want Access to return all records that begin with the letter Q.
To do this you need to enter the following expression into the criteria row:
Like [Find records beginning with:] & "*" Or Is Null
The user can enter a Q and the criteria concatenates the wildcard character * to this parameter value, to find all text strings that begin with a Q.
By also using Or Is Null in the criteria the user can enter a blank value into the parameter query to return all records, even if this field is blank.
But how do I search if i want all the records with John anywhere in the field???

I have a query where I want to use a combo box in the parameter. However, its not working.
SELECT Call_Details.Emp_ID, Call_Details.[Call Status]
FROM Call_Details
WHERE (((Call_Details.Emp_ID)=[Forms]![TTY_ID]![TTY_ID]));
I get this in the Parameter Value Dialoge
Forms!TTY_ID!TTY_ID
Should I be entering this in the criteria field at all? Do I have to build an event to make this work?

I have a query that checks a table where there's a field that only has numbers from 0 to 100 (a grade), let's call that field "average" (note, the values 0 to 100 are actual numeric values, not percentages)
here's the problem:
when I filter the query using a parameter like <[value] on the average field, the query does show the expected records that have an average value that is less than the value that I input when prompted... except that it also includes the records on which the average field is 100 ... ... for some uknown reason.
to clarify:it won't show anything over the imput value, it just shows anything under the value I imput (good) and anything that has an average of 100
when I hard code the value for the parameter say <65 the query gives me the results expected (anything less than 65 in the average field) without including records with average equal to 100
some details:
the average field has this code: Average: CInt(Nz([Grade]))
the query looks like this:
SELECT [All Classes P1 Query].Class, [All Classes P1 Query].[Student ID], [All Classes P1 Query].[Full Name], [All Classes P1 Query].Subject, CInt(Nz([Grade])) AS Average, [All Classes P1 Query].Qualification, [All Classes P1 Query].[Student - Class - Grade].[Class Grading Period]
FROM [All Classes P1 Query]
GROUP BY [All Classes P1 Query].Class, [All Classes P1 Query].[Student ID], [All Classes P1 Query].[Full Name], [All Classes P1 Query].Subject, CInt(Nz([Grade])), [All Classes P1 Query].Qualification, [All Classes P1 Query].[Student - Class - Grade].[Class Grading Period]
HAVING (((CInt(Nz([Grade])))<[value]));
I'm on access 2007

I need to apply a parameter to a query based on from combo box. I have added the ALL option to the combobox which that the user would select if they want to run the query to show all records;
E.g. Selecting ALL Countries would be the same as having no parameter or a wild card *
ALL Countries
UK
United States
Asia
Europe
I tried an iif statement like:
IIf([forms]![frmSelectReports].[location]="AllCountries",like"*",[forms]![frmSelectReports].[location])
but it didn't work...

I have a table which has 8 fields. The task is to design a query which always shows the first two fields (or any other two specific fields) and any one of the remaining 6 fields based on the input from the user. I am using a simple form with combo boxes to get the choices from the user.

I am using the Multi Search from that's available in the template forum, and currently it's working perfectly. I am trying to add one checkbox (chkIncludeManifests) to the form to do some filtering.
When the box is checked, I should search all records. When the box is unchecked, I should search only records with no manifest number [manifestnum].
I've tried setting up an IIF statement to filter out the values that are empty but it's not working.

In Access 2003 I create a query which for one field was link to a value on a form.
Now I have to duplicate this form and instead to duplicate this query I wanted to use a parameter inside this query for one field and then via VBA call this query and give a value for this parameter.
My query name is: Query_Parameter
Fields inside: "Asset_Name" and "Isin"
Parameter is under the "Isin" field: [Look_Isin]
My VBA code is:
Sub Test_Call_ISIN()
Dim dbs As DAO.Database
Dim qdf As DAO.QueryDef
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
Set dbs = CurrentDb
'Get the parameter query
[Code] ....
When I run the code nothing happen ?

I'm creating an amortization schedule database using Access 2010.
I designed it such that I'll input actual principal and interest amounts in tbl_LoanActivity when I get statements in. I'd like to be able to press a button to update forecasted principal and interest amounts, then later I'll add code to make a report pop-up.
I initially designed this with only one loan to see if I could make the thing work, and it did. I've since added another loan and made adjustments, and this is where I'm having an issue.
tbl_LoanActivity references tbl_Loans, which has interest rates and monthly payment amounts. Needless to say tbl_Loans is the RecordSource for frm_Loans, and as such has a field LoanID. I have two queries that need to reference [Forms]![frm_Loans]![LoanID]:
1) qry_LoanActivity_MaxDate,
2) qry_LoanActivity_withPrincipalBalance
I can run these 2 queries (individually) with a reference to frm_Loans.LoanID just fine. (Without that reference, forecasted principal and interest numbers are highly inaccurate.) I have a qdf append query (vba) to calculate forecasted principal and interest amounts based on the most recent principal balance (referencing queries above), and relevant data in tbl_Loans (InterestRate, and RecurringAmount).
So here's the problem: without the above queries referencing [Forms]![frm_Loans]![LoanID] the qdf runs, yet produces inaccurate numbers. With the above queries referencing [Forms]![frm_Loans]![LoanID], Access gives me a message "Too few parameters. Expected 1." If I take the qdf and put it into a standard query it runs just fine. I need this append query to be a qdf so it will loop until RecordsAffected = 0.
I've sterilized the data and attached the database. I was thinking this adjustment of adding the reference to [Forms]![frm_Loans]![LoanID] in the 2 above queries would work, but it seems like the qdf is not inheriting the parameter.

I have form with a button on it that launches a parameter-based Select query (which served as the source for a report). I didn't have any validation measure in place, so if the User supplied a bogus value, a blank report was generated. While not technically an error, it would seem more polished to generate a warning message if the User supplies a bad query value and prompt them to re-enter.
Having read other posts along these lines, I've added an unbound text box to the form which the User fills in first before clicking the button. When the button is clicked, it executes code that uses the DCount function to make sure the text box value is in the source table, and if it is then it runs the parameter-based Select query. My question is how to pass the value in the text box to the query as a parameter. Below is a sanitized version of the code that I've generated so far.
Private Sub SingleItemRptB_Click()
If DCount("[FieldName]", "[Table]", "[FieldName]=[TextBoxValue]") = 0 Then
MsgBox "Item not in database. Please check value and re-enter."
Else
DoCmd.OpenQuery "SingleItemQ", acViewNormal, acReadOnly
End If
End Sub

I have a form which users can toggle whether they want to only see entries that has data in a certain field. Previously I have set up a separate query with a hardcoded 'Is Not Null' in the criteria, and set the form to call the different queries based on the status of a toggle button. This time there is 22 queries that need to be modified so I'm hoping there's a better way.
I have a hidden textbox on my form that has value "Is Not Null" or Null based on the position of the toggle button.
In my query for the field criteria I have [Forms]![MainForm].[txtCriteria] where txtCriteria is the textbox previously mentioned.
When I run the query no data is shown.

I have a query that is hard coded with a date range.
SELECT tblCase.CaseId, tblCase.ReqReceived, tblCase.Letter_AMPI,
FROM tblCase
WHERE (((tblCase.Letter_AMPI) Between #4/1/2014# And #3/31/2015#)) OR (((tblCase.ReqReceived) Between #4/1/2014# And #3/31/2015#))
ORDER BY tblCase.CaseId;
I would like to create a parameter query that allows me to only enter the year and the query would append the rest of the date range. So for example, if I prompt the user to enter the date and they enter 2014, the query would know that it means Between #4/1/2014# And #3/31/2015# or if I enter 2015, it means Between #4/1/2015# And #3/31/2016#.As well the date would need to go into both fields ReqReceived and Letter_AMPI.

I'm having a very simple issue (I think) trying to pass a textbox value as parameter in a sql query.I have a multiline textbox and I use it to find several values in the database, so in this textbox all the values are pasted each per line and I have a small code to convert it to single line comma separated values.This is an example:The user enter the data:
[Text0]
A1C556CC3C-TNNN
C010070H13
The code convert this data to a single comma separated string and runs the query: ex: "A1C556CC3C-TNNN","C010070H13"
Code:
test = """" & Replace([Forms]![Search]![Text0], Chr(13) & Chr(10), """,""") & """"
[Forms]![Search]![Text0].Value = test
DoCmd.OpenQuery "FindPartNo", acViewNormal, acReadOnly
In the SQL code I use the IN operator to find the exact value for each record:
FindPartNo sql query:
Code:
SELECT Classifications.BU, Classifications.WisperPlantID, Classifications.PartNumber, Classifications.PartDesc, Classifications.US_CL_Code, Classifications.MX_CL_Code, Classifications.TARIC_CL_Code, Classifications.COEProject, Classifications.Supplier, Classifications.BrokerRequest, Classifications.CreatedBy
FROM Classifications
WHERE Classifications.PartNumber In ([Forms]![Search]![Text0]);
The problem here is, the query doesn't return results but if I modifiy the query and I put:
Code:
WHERE Classifications.PartNumber In ("A1C556CC3C-TNNN","C010070H13");
... the query returns the correct results.I'm passing the value incorrect into the sql code?

I have a database with a Date of Birth field. I have a query with a field that calculates the age from the Date of Birth (DateDiff("yyyy",[Date of Birth],Date())+Int(Format(Date(),"mmdd")
As a criteria in this field I want to be able to select a minimum age, so >=[please input minimum age]
However the results are bizarre - sometimes it gives the right answer, and sometimes not. It seems to have a particular problem with ages above 10, which show up all the time.

I have 2 tables: Table A contains [ID] (and other columns) AND Table B contains [Request ID] (and other columns).
However, [Request ID] contains several number separated by comma. For example: 10, 15, 20 etc.
I created a query with parameter with : Like "*" & [ID] & "*" under [Request ID] criteria.
Here is my problem:
if [Request ID] = 44, 60 then it is returning [ID] 4 records (4, 6, 44, & 60). Is there a way to show only 2 records? 44 & 60?
