Queries :: Query Criteria To Pull Its Value From Control On A Form - IIF Function
Aug 16, 2014
I want the Query Criteria to pull its value from a control on a form.The form control either has data or is null. (My problems occur when the form control is Null). The field in the table either has data, is null or is blank.
Code:
=IIf(IsNull([Forms]![FormName]![FormControl]),"" Or Is Null,[Forms]![FormName]![FormControl])
This works for the records with fields that are blank.
This works for the records with fields that have data.
Code:
Like IIf(IsNull([Forms]![FormName]![FormControl]),"*",[Forms]![FormName]![FormControl])
This works for the records with fields that are Null or Blank if i drop the iif function but then i lose the ability to pull criteria data from the form control.
I have a form (named frmAddSession) with a combo box (named Band_Name) and lets say i have it displaying the band "Band A"
I have a query where the criteria is [Forms]![frmAddSession]![Band_Name]. when i run the query the results are blank. but if i type ="Band A" it works just fine.
why won't my reference to the combo box on the form work?
In a series of deductions to try and figure this out, my form only has the one combo box, and my query is based on only one table and only has the one field.
I have a totals query that provides an avg for each month. i'd like to be able to use a text box control (named "Date") on a form (named "Report Runner") to show only a certain month and it's avg.
I tried using this as criteria on the "MonthGroupPMC" field:
SELECT Count(T_STUDENTS.studentsID) AS res1yes, T_COACHING.COACH1res, T_COACHING.COACH1port, T_COACHING.COACHworkgroup FROM T_STUDENTS, T_COACHING WHERE (((T_STUDENTS.res_vrijstelling)=False) And ((T_STUDENTS.stud_year)="1") And ((T_STUDENTS.stud_coach)=forms!F_cboCOACHING!cboCOACHING)) GROUP BY T_COACHING.COACH1res, T_COACHING.COACH1port, T_COACHING.COACHworkgroup;
It runs fine, untill the moment the count is 0. At that point it breaks the form. How can i tell access to deal with this? Somehow i need to replace the count result with 0 if there are no records that meet the criteria.
Using the code below I am able to open an explorer window from access and select most of a file path. The part I am not able to get is "LN" which is a field in my forms. I need to be able to pull the current LN number into my Modules file path. How do I do this? Is it easier to go by ID or the actual field I am looking for?
Code: Function Loan_Folder_Search3() Dim rs As Recordset Dim LN As String Dim Client_Name As String Dim RetVal As String Dim LFPath As String
[Code] ....
Currently, it keeps pulling the first record, no matter what record I'm on.
I'm working on a report called Open Orders and when the database loads, it takes you to a Navigation Form. You make some selections mostly from combo boxes, then click run report which runs a query then launches the report.
I want the user to be able to click a check box called "Ready Only". If the checkbox = True, then I would like the field "Ready Pieces" in the query to have the criteria ">0". If the checkbox = false, I want that field to show all values (*).
I have no problem setting the criteria of a query field to equal that of a combo box value (Warehouse Like ([Forms]![Process Form]![Warehouse] & "*") but have problems when the criteria isn't the exact same as the value of the control.
Things I have tried to no avail: Putting a Iif statement in the query criteria: gives an error that criteria is too complex Creating an invisible text box whose value is determined by the checkbox to ">0" or "" then basing the Ready Pieces criteria equal to this....doesn't work Trying to use the DoCmd.RunSQL with my SQL code that changes via VBA when the checkbox is changed...Get an error and the SQL doesn't run
I am using a function to set criteria in a an query. It reads the selected values from a combobox on a form and passes the appropriate value into the sql criteria.
E.g., the sql criteria is set to : like fnCountry()
And the function fnCountry() is something like;
If SelectedCountry = "All" Then fnCountry = "*" else fnCountry = SelectedCountry end if
This works fine for a single selection (SelectedCountry = Africa) but doesn't work if I try to combine multiple selections into the criteria string.
E.g. SelectedCountry = Africa Or Italy
So the criteria would need to be Like "Africa" Or like "Italy"
How else can i build this criteria with multiple values?
I am trying to aggregate IIF functions to give me the total in separate columns (fields) according to the criteria applied however I am getting an error message "You tried to execute a query that does not include the specific expression
as part of an aggregate function, and I cannot find why, The query is as follows:
SELECT
Tbl_Advisor_raw.Month, Sum(Tbl_Advisor_raw.ValuePay) AS ValuePay, Sum(Tbl_Advisor_raw.Salary) AS Salary, Sum(Tbl_Advisor_raw.NetRevenue) AS NetRevenue, IIf(ValuePay>0,(ValuePay/Salary),0) AS pcSpend,
I have two tables: Table #1) [Request Table] Customers request our company to stock a certain Part Number with a minimum value. Ajax - P/N "NP4i" - Min "30".
Table #2) [Sales History] All sales purchased and the "Qty-Total" purchased. For simplicity Fields are limited.I created a CrossTab Query that displays from [Request Table] P/N's requested/ min values (Row Headings) then showing P/N's purchased [Sales History] Value="Qty-Total" Sum and
Column=Format([Invoice Date],"mmm/yyyy") group by, showing last twelve months. Ex: Customer name, Part Number, Minimum, May/2013, Apr/2013, Mar/2013 and so on. AJAX, NP4i, 30 4 21 5 and so on.
The Crosstab query list only requested Part Numbers that have at least One sale wihin the last twelve months.If there are NO sales, the crosstab query will NOT show this Part Number.My boss wants to see the requested Part Numbers that were never purchased along with the ones purchased.He wants to address the NO sales, yet they requested we stock that particular Part Number for them.
Is there any criteria I can use to force the Part Number field on the [Request Table] side to populate even though there were NO sales within the last twelve months?
I have a form that is used to book a new event for a client who is already in the database.Within that form I have a subform that is based on a query which displays information from that client's previous event. I did this using a solution found in the following thread: URL...It is based on pulling the second to last record that is related to the current client. It works perfectly when booking a new event that has taken place on a previous date. However, if the previous event occured on that same date (but at a previous time), it doesn't register.
I would prefer a query that would pull the record previous to the current one, instead of pulling the second to last record out of all that client's events.it would also mean that if more events are booked, then a past event is opened in a form, the sub forms in that form will display the event just prior to the current record.
I have a query built that gives me info per employee. I built a question into the criteria that ask for the employees name. When a person types the name results are given. If the person mispells the name, results are not given.
I have everyones name on a seperate table. How do i create a pull down menu on the query to choose the names?
I have one table let's call is table1. It contains about 5 columns with standard employee data with about 10,000 rows of data containing about 1,150 employees. All employees have multiple rows of data. There is one column titled JOB. I need to pull all rows of data for each employee ONLY if there is at the minimum one value for the employee in the JOB column. I do not want to pull employees that have no values in the JOB column. They can be excluded from the query.
Example of all record for one employee. I need to pull all rows of data ONLY if the employee has a value in the JOB column.
Name EE_ID JOB CAT EFF_DATE
John Doe 1006 CLERK F 01-JAN-2010 John Doe 1006 P 21-JAN-2010 John Doe 1006 CLERK P 01-FEB-2011 John Doe 1006 F 01-MAR-2011 John Doe 1006 P 01-APR-2011 John Doe 1006 CLERK F 01-JUL-2012
I have 9 seperate tables - each of the tables has similar headers
Claim # Agent Pass/Fail Request type Record Date
I have built relationships between all the tables. I am attempting have a singular query be run based on start and end dates under "record date" . I have the criteria already set. But when I run the Query no information is pulled. How do I get the query to pull this data from all 9 tables?
I have two date fields in a table. I need to find the days between these dates and, if its greater than 7 days, I want to display the record in a report, so far, I have found a hand function that allows me to enter two dates and it returns a long data value representing the number of days in between the two dates. (google "I've developed the following code to count the business days between 2 dates." and its the second one that starts as SOLVED I made no mods to it as it does what i need it to do.
So, i added this to its own module within the data base for use within a query. My test query basically displays the unique ID, the start date and the end date and then displays the values returned from the function. here is the SQL:
SELECT [Main Table].[Unique ID], [Main Table].[Start date], [Main Table].[End Date], (Business_Days_Between([End Date],[Start date])) AS [Days between] FROM [Main Table] WHERE ((([Main Table].[Start date]) Is Not Null) AND (([Main Table].[End Date]) Is Not Null));
When ran, this Query works... However, when I enter a criteria like =2 or > 7, it says data type mismatch. I have even attempted the CInt() function to make sure its formated as int but i continue to get the same error.
Looking to have a count function which calculate data in sense like if records found on 1-jan-2014 the it give answer as 1, same as records for 2-jan-2014 it should return 2 and so on .. in short the criteria must look and give same number for same dates starting from 1
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'm setting up some analytical reports and i'm having a hard time with some date criteria.
I've gotten monthly averages already and what i want to do is take those monthly averages, and average them throughout the year. (the year being from the specified date on a form control back one year)
Month([Forms]![Report Runner]![Date1]) and Year([Forms]![Report Runner]![Date1]) worked great for specifying a certain month in a certain year, but what i'd like is to show all the monthly numbers for every month going back one from [Forms]![ReportRunner]![Date1].
I tried this:
Code: >(Year([Forms]![Report Runner]![Date1])) And <((Year([Forms]![Report Runner]![Date1]))-1)
I have 2 form controls one a combobox and the other a text box. The text box select the site (txtLocation) where the user can enter part of the name of the site and all sites with those characters are returned. I've done this by adding:
Code: Like [Forms]![frmSearchDB2]![txtLocation] & "*"
into the criteria on the Site field in the query design editor.I also want the combobox to have an affect on the query. I want it to query on user status. However if the combobox reads "All Users" I want it to return all status's and all null values. In the criteria field I put:
Code: iif([Forms]![frmSearchDB2]![cbxUserStatus] = "All Users",like "*",[Forms]![frmSearchDB2]![cbxUserStatus])
It kind of works but no null values are pulled back. Should it be an expression?Do I need to do it in VBA?
I have this linked table query from a OBDC and I need to be able to filter out specific dates in that query. The dates in the table were in text format and I converted the dates using the CDate function. I wanted to filter the query to a single date and always I get the Datatype mismatch in criteria expression error.
However, filtering dates does work only when there are other specifications in the criteria fields (e.g. if I specify a date and and name). My SQL code in error looks like this:
SELECT purch_hist.PUITM AS ITEM, purch_hist.PUPO AS PO, purch_hist.PUQTY AS QTY_RECEIVED, CDate([purch_hist.PURDT]) AS RECEIPT_DATE, itmcnt.ITBYR AS BUYER, purch_hist.PUCST AS UNIT_COST, vendor.NVNO AS VENDOR NO,
[code]...
This query works fine with a non converted date field, however the dates I need are in text format and need to be converted since I do not have permissions to edit the tables.
I am trying to use the string value from a form control as the criteria for a query. I first need to replace the "," in the string with "AND".
So far I have a module using the Replace function, but it doesn't seem to be working. I am not sure I can reference the string inside the form control directly....if I can, I might have a syntax error.
Here is my code so far:
Dim result As String result = Replace("Forms!Processing!Dataset_Acreage_Query", ",", "AND")
I am not experienced and having trouble finding the search terms to answer this question.
I'm trying set the query criteria from a textbox on a form. It's a Status field in the query. 1 = Open, 2 = Closed. If I set the criteria to "1" it shows all open, "2" and it shows all closed and "1" or "2" it shows all. The problem I'm having is setting these in the form. I've set the query to pull the value from the form. I can get the Open or Closed to work but not the All. My textbox shows exactly how the criteria should read "1" or "2" but doesn't show any results.
I've got a continuous form based on a query.Each of the fields have a search box below it (in the footer) which should ideally filter the query.I'm starting with the FirstName field.In the form's query, I've set the criteria to the following for the FirstName field:
Code: Like "*" & [Forms]![frmStudentDetails]![txtSearchFirstName] & "*" frmStudentDetails is the form name. txtSearchFirstName is the search box's name (in the footer). The AfterUpdate event for txtSearchFirstName is:
Code: Me.Requery
But, it doesn't work; when I switch to form view, it displays an error. The Microsoft Access database engine does not recognize '[Forms]![frmStudent Details]![txtSearchFirstName]' as a valid field name or expression.
I am trying to set up a query by form with multiple criteria.For the majority of the criteria I'm using the format: Like [Form]![formName].[txtInputboxName] &"*" .
I copied the Like (...) &"*" from someone else in order to allow for multiple, optional criteria, which does do the trick, however I don't understand why.
I now want to set up a criteria on my query to search for values between two input values to gives the records in the range e.g between 50 and 100 Following the above format, I want to put something that achieves this:
Between Like [Form]![formName].[txtInputboxName1] &"*" AND Like [Form]![formName].[txtInputboxName2] &"*"
with Inputbox1 being 50 and Inputbox2 being 100, however that code doesn't work and I don't know how to get around it as it keeps giving the 'incorrect syntax' error.
