Queries :: Query Or Function To Update Another Field Value
Nov 21, 2013
Would I use an update query or function to complete my task?
Task: Automatically update [Status] based on DateDiff calculation of [RequestDate] and [DueDate]
Issue: [Status] can be one of 6 values, the user can manually select Review or Completed.
[Status] values: Review; Completed; Due in 24; Due in 24-48; Beyond 48; Over Due
Query: Below is the query I just started to ignore the calculation if either Review or Completed exist.
Expr1: IIf([Status]="Review",[Status],IIf([Status]="Completed",[Status],DateDiff('d',[RequestDate],[DueDate])))If the value from above DateDiff equals to the below, I want to update the [Status] field to the [Status] value.
Due in 24 = (0-1)
Due in 24-48 = (2-3)
Beyond 48 = (greater than or equal to 4)
Over Due= (-1)

I run a physical therapy office and patients come in for treatment either 3, 4 or 5 times per week. My database is used to track these frequencies (among other things).
I have 3 queries which count how many patients come in 5, 4 and 3 times/week.
In my main table I have fields called "how many 5's", "how many 4's" and "how many 3's".
I have tried to design an update query which will update those fileds in my main table to reflect the counts in the 3 queries mentioned above.
(I'm not using SQL view, I'm using the query design view)
In the "update to:" row, I use the Build function and locate the count I'm looking for.
Problem: when I run the query I get the error: Operation must use an updateable query.

I have a multivalue field containing values of A,B,C and D with primary IDs of 1,2,3 and 4 in that order.
If I was to run:
Code:
UPDATE Table
Set Table.Multivalue.Value = 1
WHERE Field 1 = "True" AND Field 2 = "True";
Then run
Code:
UPDATE Table
Set Table.Multivalue.Value = 2
WHERE Field 1 = "True" AND Field 2 = "True";
Will I have a Multivalue field as A,B or just B? I would like it to be A,B but I have my doubts as to whether this would work.

Why update query isn't working when trying to update an multivalued field. In this table, there are 647 records and only 9 of which already have a value set in the "AssociatedProject" field. More than one AssociatedProject is associated with a vendor, so this field allows for multiple entries. I've looked at all the information on update queries and updating a multivalued field, but it will only update the existing 9 records. It does not recognize the remaining ones (they have no values yet).
Here's the SQL:
UPDATE Tbl_Vendor SET Tbl_Vendor.AssociatedProject.[Value] = 3
WHERE (((Tbl_Vendor.AssociatedProject.Value) Is Null));

I need to update the periodtype field in my table depending on different values in the field Formtype- I am looking to do this without having to use VBA. I have the following fields in a table - I want to update the value of the field Period_type as follows -
When Formtype is 10-Q, update Periodtype to "Quarterly"
When Formtype is 10-K, update Periodtype to "Annual"
The current value of Periodtype for both formtypes is "Semiannual"
Can I do this using only update query?

What I have a a form that my lab supervisor would use. That person selects the records that are to be modified and assigns work, completes work or otherwise updates the status of the records. One of the options is to mark a record as not having a sample here if it has already been marked as having been here. So essentially, I want to modify the record to change the sample arrival date and sample number field (which is a foreign key field) to null or empty. I have created a delete query that deletes the corresponding record just fine.I just am having difficulty updating the two fields mentioned above. When the supervisor selects the record the primary key for that record is also picked up so it is easy to know exactly what record to adjust. The query returns the information to be updated just fine, it just doesn't do that. Here is the sql of the query. As I said, I don't care if the fields are empty or null. Also the fields aren't required.
Code:
UPDATE TestRequestTable SET TestRequestTable.SampleLocation = "", TestRequestTable.SampleArrivalDate = ""
WHERE (((TestRequestTable.TestRequestNumber)=[Forms]![LabScheduleForm]![TRNumberCombo]));

Is it possible for an update query to simply replace all the data in a table's field with the results from a query?
For example, I have Table A with the field Years. This table performs various calculations within based on the field Years.
I would like an update query that simply replaces the Years field data in Table A with a new set of years based on a query's search criteria.
When I run the below query, I get an error saying the query must be updateable- but Im not trying to update the query, rather the Table
I've attached a photo ......

I have a created a query which I want to update a table. The field is called DTP. I have the Workingdays2 module in place as well as the Holidays Table. The dates (date only) are called Time in and Transaction date. I want the table to update records only if the entry in Completed is Yes. I have attached screenshot of what I have in query. I am no good whatsoever at VBA so I used the Query design view. It shows how many records will be updated (which is a valid number) and shows me which field will be updated. However when I run the query and then opend the Table the DTP field is empty.

The company I work for is consolidating regional server space onto a single server. I have relinked all of my tables, but my ~180 queries are still pointing to the old server.
My question: Is there a script or other process that can be executed that will search through all my queries within the database to find the string "dbo_tbl" and replace with "dbo_vwtbl"? I would very much like to avoid taking each individual query to a notepad...

I am hoping to create a field name in a query that will change every month. Right now the filed name is qryTechQuintileMonth-7.am_quintile. this designates that the data is for October 2012. There are 6 other fields named similarly for Nov 2012 through April 2013.
Is there a way to name these fields with the proper month-year (mmm-yy) so they automatically update each month?

Let's say Table (T1) has fields F1 and F2. After a massive update to T1, there are some records with F1 = "" because a Dlookup using F2 as criteria to another Table (T2) resulted in a null. I created a select query to show unique T1F2 values where T1F1 = "". The user can use this query to find out which F2 values need to be added to T2.
How do I create an update query that will update T1F1 with values from T2 using the T1F2 results from the select query to again use the Dlookup to T2 (of course after T2 has been updated to contain the missing F2's)?

I am giving two tables and I need to create a macro that automatically updates these tables depending on the value of a Yes/No field. If it's No, it's in the 1st table TableOne, if it's Yes it automatically updates to TableTwo.
So, the best way I saw to go about is to set up an append query and then create a macro that runs it
So my tables have the values FirstName, LastName and isValid (more but keeping it short)
So for my append query, I put TableTwo in the pop up I get. Then, where it asks for the field I put it
Field:FirstName
Table:TableOne
AppendTo:[TableTwo].[FirstName]
Criteria:[TableOne].[isValid] = 1
I do this for all (it was autocompleted except the Criteria field). I tried to keep Criteria with data only for isValid but that didn't work. I wrote it for all the field names, still didn't work. Whenever I click run it says it'll append 0 rows.

I am having a bit of a problem with my update query. i have a field that shows a forename. i am importing data from an excel file. The forename populates with forename and middle names and they are seperated by spaces as opposed to commas. I have used the following InStr function in my update query however it works fine when the records forename field has a middle name but it deletes all data in the records forename field if it contains only one name which many do. How can I adjust the function to ignore those records that do not hold more than one name in the forename field. As you can imagine some forename and middle name combinations hold many names.
For instance the filad may have Ivor as a name which I would want to keep But if the Field showed Ivor Bigun then Bigun needs deleting.
Left([Forename],InStr([Forename]," "))

Hi ALL,
I have 2 tables, trying to update one table filed by using max(onefiled) from other table.
my qyery is as follows:
my tables are tblSubFlowForecast and tblPickCalendar
I have to update one field in tblSubFlowForecast by taking max(onefiled) from tblPickCalendar.
UPDATE tblSubFlowForecast INNER JOIN tblPickCalendar ON tblSubFlowForecast.Delivery=tblPickCalendar.Delive ry SET tblSubFlowForecast.[Latest Replen Date] = ( SELECT max(Pick) FROM tblPickCalendar WHERE Type="Replen");
I am getting error saying that "Operation must be an updateable query" :(
I have also tried in other way:
UPDATE tblSubFlowForecast SET [Latest Replen Date] = (SELECT max(Pick) FROM tblPickCalendar WHERE tblSubFlowForecast.Delivery=tblPickCalendar.Delive ry AND tblPickCalendar.Type="Replen" ) FROM
tblSubFlowForecast,tblPickCalendar
This is giving me syntax error (missing operator) :(
Can any body tell me why it is giving error?
Thanks in advance

I'm having problems with an assignment in an online course I am taking.
The assignment is to create one Update Query to find & remove typos in a field. Specifically, the typos are multiple f's & g's embedded in a field.
I created an Update Query that finds the typos & removes just the f's. I'm having trouble with the syntax to also remove the g's.
This is what I have so far that works great.
Update: Replace([Field2],"fff","")
Criteria: Like “*fff*”
or: Like “*ggg*”
The Query finds the records that contain both the "fff" & the "ggg" typos but I'm having trouble with Syntax for removing both.
Does anyone know what I have to change in the "Update:" line to include removing the g's?
I know I could easily create 2 Querys to remove the f's then the g's but the assignment requires only 1 Query to remove both.
Thanks,
Yaani-Mai

I would like queries to do some calculations for me based on a field. The field in the form is a combo field and the user can choose either 1, 2 or 3. Based on the selection, I would like queries to generate some numbers for me.
This is what I have in mind but its not working.
Code : TEST RESULT: If([tlkpTEST].[RESULTID])=1, ([tlkpTEST].[RESULTID])*2, 100)

I have a query in design view that consists of two calculated fields at the moment. One of the calculated fields is supposed to add one year onto a value from another date/time field called "Last_Date."
The expression I've written in the "Field:" box in Query design view is
Expr 2: DateAdd('yyyy',1,[Last_Date])
When I try to run the Query it doesn't work! Access just prompts me to enter a parameter value for Last_Date.

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.
