Queries :: Possible To Sort A Table Drop Down Box By Date Within A Query?
Oct 3, 2013
Is it possible to sort a natural table drop down by date from within a query? What im doing:
1. making a query that has certain results displayed
2. within the query you can select one of the field boxes and it has a list of all the items in that table.
3. is it possible to sort this natural table listing from within the query. I have attached a screenshot. Same thing happens with the client ID listing from within the query. Want to know if it is possible or not to sort those. I cant see how.

A few months ago I created a report that displays the results of a long union query comprising a dozen or so individual queries, each containing an expression that yields a date (or sometimes date and time). I set the report to group by query and then sort by the date expression. Now for some reason that I can't fathom the report has always only ever offered me the option to sort the date "A to Z", I infer it thinks the date is text, but this misunderstanding has never actually stopped it sorting by date perfectly well. It worked. No problems.
However I have recently added formatting to some of the queries so that they just display date, not date and time e.g. Format([dateandtime],"dd/mm/yyyy"), and now the sort by date in the report no longer works. None of the sorting or grouping options have changed, but it now sorts just by the "dd" component of the date - so it thinks 21st June is later than 20th July. why?

I have a Table that is used to collect data from client’s phone calls. There is a field for the Client’s name and another for the date the client called (There are a whole lot more fields, but for simplicities sake let’s focus on these two). I have sorted the table on date and indexed the date field. I need to add a “RECORD NO.” field in order to get some queries to run correctly. This field will be autonumber. I would like to have the RECORD NO. field to run in conjunction with the date, that is RECORD. NO. 1 would be the earliest date in the table and the last RECORD NO. would be the most recent date that a client called in. I have verified that the table is sorted by date, but when I add the RECORD NO. field the table reverts to sorting alphabetically by client’s name. The client’s name field is not indexed. I can’t figure out why it is doing this. Any ideas or suggestions as to how to correct this?
Thanks.

I have a calculated date field in a query...if I try and sort by this field I get a data type mismatch.
[CONTREFF] is a date field in a table, [TERM] is a number field in a table. I am trying to calculate the year the contract expires in the "EndTerm" field. The calculation works fine, but I can't sort it.
EndTerm: DateSerial(Year([CONTREFF])+[TERM],Month([CONTREFF]),Day([CONTREFF]))
Please Help!!! Thank you ...

Hi All,
I am wanting to build a table which consists of all the queries and tables in the database.
I am expecting column 1 to have all the queries and column 2 to contain all the tables that make up the query. So the table will look like this:
Queries - Linked Tables
Query1 - Table1
Query2 - Table1
Query2 - Table2
Query3 - Table1
Query3 - Table4
As you can see a table can be linked to any number of tables.
Now for my actual question. I don't want to have to type in all the queries and tables. I would like to choose any query and table from a drop down of all possible queries and tables that are currently in the database - like a list, where the list contains all the possible values.
I would then select the relevant entry.
Any pointers would be great.
Thanks,
Evan

Is there a way in which someone can select a table from a drop down list and then search that table for a record then move that record to another table.
For example.
User selects 'Mikey's_table' searchs for a record then move this selected record to 'Mandy's_table'
(all the tables have the same structure etc. identical apart from the name of the table and records within)
I have the list of tables that all the records will be on and the users will know which table the record is in, i basically need to know if there is an ability to search for a record over multiple tables then edit that record and move it to another Table.
I have tried to use a Union Query which works when searching but i cannot edit or move the record ...

Access 2007
After some research I thought I had found a neat way to SELECT records from a table based on an 'IN' clause and sort them in the same order as the values for the 'IN' clause... i.e.
Code:
SELECT Unique_No, Table_Name, List_Order FROM My_Table
WHERE Table_Name = 'Titles'
AND List_Order IN (3,1,15,4,5,12,7,2)
ORDER BY INSTR('3,1,15,4,5,12,7,2', List_Order)
Unfortunately, this returns list_order 5 just after 15 and list_order 2 just after 12, thus
List_Order
3
1
15
5
4
12
2
7

I have a created a crosstab query which gives me the results I need, but I want to sort the row headings differently. These are not numbers, but machine sizes which range from 4 Metre to 20 Metre. Currently, the crosstab gives me:
10 Metre
12 Metre
14 Metre
17 Metre
20 Metre
3 Metre
4 Metre
5 Metre etc
But I need to show it as:
3 Metre
4 Metre
5 Metre
10 Metre
12 Metre
14 Metre
17 Metre etc.
The field is short text data type and data comes from an ODBC linked table to SQL server table, and I am using Access 2013.

This is something I occasionally see in Access and has been bugging me for quite a while.
As an example, when I have a table (all text fields except for the ID field which is an Autonumber with a unique index - ie just what Access creates when you import data) and I try to make a new table from a query by indexing the Autonumber field in descending order (ie to reverse the order of the table), it doesn't work properly.
So if I have:
SELECT [mytable].* INTO [mytable sorted] FROM [mytable] ORDER BY [mytable].[ID] DESC;
When I preview the data (ie run the select query to have a look at it), it looks fine.
When I change the query to a 'Make Table' and I then I check the table it makes, the order changes part-way down the list, so looking at the ID field it runs from number 2669 down to 2087 correctly, then it goes from 1960 to 1956, then 1803 to 1799, then 1751 to 1747, etc etc etc. After a while it seems to correct itself again, and orders normally down to #1
I'm using Access 2002.

I have a dynamic cross tab query - thus the column headings will change each time it is run.
At present the column headings are displayed in alphabetical order - how can I change this so they are based on a different order - eg by the descriptions corresponding ID

I have a Union Query (that works perfectly fine) with the following code:
Code:
SELECT * FROM sbqryUseBattery
UNION
SELECT * FROM sbqryUseBeltsDeck;
UNION
SELECT * FROM sbqryUseBeltsHydro;
UNION
SELECT * FROM sbqryUseBeltsPTO;
UNION
SELECT * FROM sbqryUseFiltersAir
UNION
SELECT * FROM sbqryUseFiltersFuel
UNION SELECT * FROM sbqryUseFiltersOil;
I am using this information on a Report.
The problem is that the Report shows the data in random order. Is there a way to filter either the Union Query or the Report?

I cannot sort below query in descending order by absolute value. If I do not use sort, all works fine but as soon as I try to sort by absolute value I get message to 'Enter Parameter Value'. I tried to replace Abs([Variance (W2 - W1)]) with filed name AbsoluteValue and still the same result ;(
Code:
SELECT [Query Union].[Stock Code] AS SKU, [Query Union].[Pallet No] AS [Pallet No], [Query Union].[Batch No#] AS Batch, IIf(IsNull([qW1 SOH].[Physical stock]),0,CDbl([qW1 SOH].[Physical stock])) AS [W1 Qty], IIf(IsNull([W2 SOH].[Good Stock]),0,CDbl([W2 SOH].[Good Stock])) AS [W2 Qty], [W2 Qty]-[W1 Qty] AS [Variance (W2 - W1)], Abs([Variance (W2 - W1)]) AS AbsoluteValue
[code]....

I have a query that I want to sort based on a table. (SS BELOW) I want the OS in qry2FINAL to be sorted based on Trn-OSstops table. So the OS column of the query should be sorted as which is the order shown in the table. I tried linking the 2 tables in my query but I had no clue what to do from there. Any help?MV6HP108PT337HP113 (sometimes there is an extra field, but can I make it show up last?)http://i10.tinypic.com/68hkwhe.gifEdit: I looked at my SS and it might be confusing. Ignore all of the records in the Trn-OSstops table except for the highlighted one.

This is a query, report and vba question. I'm using Ms Access 2007.
TABLE 1: projectname, activityname, totalhoursworked, employeename
TABLE 2: employeename, employeelevel
TABLE 3: employeelevel, rate
I created a select query to join the info that I need.
SELECT QUERY 1: projectname, activityname, employeename, totalhoursworked, rate, cost (calculated field (totalhoursworked*rate))
I have 2 crosstab queries.
CROSSTAB QRY 1: ROW (projectname, activityname) COLUMN (employeename) VALUE (totalhoursworked (summed))
CROSSTAB QRY 2: ROW (projectname, activityname) COLUMN (employeename) VALUE (cost (summed))
I then created a 2nd select query with inner joins to join both crosstab queries on similar fields (activity & projectname).
SELECT QUERY 2: projectname, activityname, employeename (totalhoursworked as value), employeename (calculatedcost as value)
It gives me this:
However, I want it like this:
Those employeename... refers to more employees being added after a period of time. Hence I want to know if I could use vba to generate a report every time a button is pressed on a form? I know how to link the form to the query.

I have an database that uses a couple of different date ranges, so I created a table that shows the different date ranges that may be required (xReport Dates) so I didn't have to keep manually editing queries or entering dates every time.
I have one query that appends data from one table into another based on a date range that you need to manually enter when prompted; I can't seem to get it to refer to my xReport Dates table for the range.
Its currently set up as below:
INSERT INTO 001_M_Gross_Telesales ( UpdateDate, OMSNumber, MediaRoute, ExecName, SaleType, Name,
[Reporting Campaign], [Reporting Team], [Sales Leader], [Reprting Name], [Media Route2] )
SELECT Max(L_ExecTracker.UpdateDate) AS MaxOfUpdateDate, L_ExecTracker.OMSNumber,
L_ExecTracker.Campaign, L_ExecTracker.ExecName, L_ExecTracker.SaleType, Z_Ref_Agent_Table1.Field23,
[Code] .....

I have a form (DropDown form) that has 3 drop down fields, you select your values from the drop downs and you would push a command button that runs an event procedure which runs a query (DropDown qry test). The user should have the option of picking any combination of fields to filter by. Or no combination, which would return all values in all fields. So I am basically using the form as parameter's for the query.
The problem I'm having is that my query is returning values for one field AND values for another field. Even if the other values selected are not in the same record. It's not combining the fields together to filter. For example: you pick a Project name and Supplier name, the query will return records that have the project name you selected but it will also return records with the supplier name you selected that have a different project name.
I've attached screen shots of the form and the design view of the query (the screen shot cut off the last column name. It is meant to say "Expr3: [Forms]![DropDown form]![Combo7]").
Using Windows 7,
Access 2010
Is there a way to select multiple values from the drop downs?

When creating a query I have set up a parameter query as instructed (in this case searching for a name) but when I run the query it returns the error 'this expression is typed incorrectly etc.'
I have worked out that this must be due to the fact that the names are not typed in by a front-end user but need to be chosen from a dropdown list (which i have stored in a separate table) - So, the query seems to fail based on that.

i have 2 tables.. 1 with bookings and 1 with a BonusPeriod range.
in the Bookings table there is a field called [ServiceDate]
in the bonus table i have a field called [Period] which is text i also have 2 dates, [StartDate] And [EndDate] i need to Dlookup the Bonus table to return the value of the period table based on where the [ServiceDate] falls.
i dont want to use VBA (i really need it to work within a query that inserts it's data into another table)
i've tried everything but had no joy
Expr1: DLookUp("[Period]","BonusPeriods","[ServiceDate]" Between "#[StartDate]#" And "#[EndDate]#")
Expr1: DLookUp("[Period]","BonusPeriods","[Staff_BookingsAndQuotes_Master].[ServiceDate]" Between "#[StartDate]#" And "#[EndDate]#")
Expr1: DLookUp("[Period]","BonusPeriods","(FormatDateTime([ServiceDate]),"yyyy-mm-dd") Between (FormatDateTime([BonusPeriods]![StartDate]),"yyyy-mm-dd") and (FormatDateTime([BonusPeriods]![EndDate],"yyyy-mm-dd"))))

I am trying to have a query sort out my invoices by year but also to have the possibility to show all invoices.
I have one table "INVOICE" where I have a column "YEAR" calculated with DatePart function from the invoice date.
On my form "INVOICE LISTING", I want to have a combox "Combo957" selecting the year. I have forced the "ALL" selection to the combox using a UnionQuery.
My problem, I cannot get the query to work. I have tried many ways, the closest I can get is :
IIf([Forms]![Invoice Listing]![Combo957]="ALL",([Invoice].[Year])<Year(Date()),[Forms]![Invoice Listing]![Combo957])
If I select the year from the combo, it works, if I select "ALL" nothing is shown.
here is the full SQL
SELECT DISTINCTROW Companies.Company, Companies.City, Companies.Country, Sales.Brand, Sales.Type, Sales.Date, Sales.QuoteNo, Sales.Delivered, Sales.Account, Sales.Branch, Invoice.InvoiceNumber, Invoice.InvoiceDate, Invoice.CustOrderNumber, Invoice.PaymentTerms, Invoice.DueDate, Invoice.NetAmount, Invoice.TotalAmount, Invoice.Tax, Invoice.PaiementRCVD, Invoice.Overdue, Invoice.Month, Year([Invoice]![DueDate]) AS DueYear, [Invoice]![month] & " - " & [Invoice]![Year] AS InvoiceMonth

I have a single table with customer information, one of the fields is a date field "LastContacted".
I'm creating a search form with 2 date fields (txtDate1 & txtDate2) to search a date range of the LastContacted field, and I need to write this into the query that the search form uses.
I have written this using Nz so that it can still return results if the search boxes are left blank:
Between Nz([Forms]![frm_AdvancedSearch]![txtDate1],#01/01/1989#) And Nz([Forms]![frm_AdvancedSearch]![txtDate2],#01/01/2999#)
This seems to work and it returns lines from the table where there is a date entered. However some of the fields in the table have no entry in the LastContacted field. How to code this query so that it also returns lines where the LastContacted field is blank in the table?
I have tried:
like "*" & (Between Nz([Forms]![frm_AdvancedSearch]![txtDate1],#01/01/1989#) And Nz([Forms]![frm_AdvancedSearch]![txtDate2],#01/01/2999#)) & "*"
but this returns errors when I try to run it.
I'm using Access 2010.
