Replacing Null Values In Text Fields
Sep 10, 2007Hi,
i have created a query from just one table, which is basically a list of Financial transactions.
There is a field called supplier code, in this query.
Most of the transactions have a supplier code, but there are a few that don't.
i've got another table that has the supplier name against the supplier code.
i want to bring this table into the query, so that i can show the supplier names against those records in the query that have a supplier code.
when i add this table and link the 2 tables up and put the supplier name into the query. The query excludes the records with no supplier code.
This is presumably, because they contain null values.
I've been reading about the Nz function and i think this is what i need to use.
i've tried this, but it still only brings through the records with a supplier code and not all of them.
How i've done this is to go into the design mode of the query and in the column that would have null values i have click "build"
in here i have the following formula.
Nz([Supplier Name],"No")
Am i doing anything wrong?
Modules & VBA :: Replacing Empty String With Null Value
Sep 12, 2014I have a module that creates records into a contacts table in my access database. When there is no data in the field from outlook, the data is populated as an empty string "" instead of a null value, creating problems with subsequent queries and processes. I'd like to create the data as a null value but the module keeps failing with "object is required" on the statement
rstImport("Customer ID").Value = System.DBNull.Value
It doesn't seem to like System.DBNull.Value or DBNull.Value, and when I assign the vbNullString constant instead, it gets set to "" again and not null.
Queries :: Combining Columns And Replacing Certain Values
Sep 29, 2014I need to create a query that combines two columns (lets say Column A and Column B for example) however the problem is that whatever non-null values that are in Column B must replace any value in Column A. If Column B has a value that is null then Column A's value is shown.
I have an example of what I'm working with (access file) and what result I want (excel file).
Queries :: Replacing Wildcard Characters In A Query
Jun 5, 2013I am trying to replace a # character and all characters after in a text field.
U set up a Select query and used the following expression:
Expr1: Replace([Part Number],"[#]*","")
It doesn't change any of the records. Is this possible to do in Access 2007?
Queries :: Importing Excel Sheet And Replacing Whole Records?
Jul 22, 2014I need to import an excel sheet containing updated tickets to my access ticket database. They have unique IDs in the form of a "Ticket ID" field.
I could just use an append query to add the new tickets to my database, but there are some changes on the excel side to tickets that already exist in access as well. What would be the easiest way to facilitate this import and overwrite all tickets with matching Ticket IDs to the new ones contained in the excel file?
I already have the excel file imported into it's own table, so it's a matter of updating my main table off of this temporary table containing the excel tickets. The field names are the same across both tables, it's just a matter of updating the info contained in them.
This will need to be repeated for multiple different excel files, so the easier the better!
Replacing Many Iif By Something Better
Jun 21, 2007I have a customer who made a query with a field that looks like that:
NewField: iif(Field1=True and Field2>100 and isnull(Field3);"Blue";iif(Field1=True and Field2>100 and not isnull(Field3);"Black";iif(Field1=True and Field2=100 and isnull(Field3);"White";... And so on, for miles and miles.
Although it works, and fast enough, I don't like the way it is displayed and I am sure that it could be even faster without all these iif.
Any idea about the best way for me to handle this kind of query?
Thanks!
Queries :: Union All Queries If Value Is Null
Aug 8, 2014What I am trying to do is merge data from several tables into one query, based on user defined options through multiple listboxes. I've figured out the VBA for the union all for the different selections, my problem is I can't determine how to make it dynamic and skip over a select statement if the list value is null. My code looks something like this so far.
Code:
Dim db As DAO.Database
Set db = CurrentDb
Dim qdf As DAO.QueryDef
Set qdf = db.QueryDefs("Flex2")
[code]...
Null Value's In Queries
Feb 15, 2008I have 3 queries, one generates a calculation for a phone extension, the other generates a calculation for another field for the same phone extension, in the third query, I am using the data from the first 2 queries to show the data side by side, but when I run the third query, if any of the calculations have a null value, it leaves the whole phone extension out. Does anyone know a way around this?:eek:
View 4 Replies View RelatedReplacing 'Name' With 'ID' Taken From Another Table
Dec 19, 2007I have a main table which contains data on Oilfields. This is set up with an auto number for ID and a name of each oil field. I have other tables which contain things such as Pipelines, Wells and Platforms, which are linked back the the main table.
The problem is that the database was given to me with the links being between the Oilfield_Name, and not using the Oilfield_ID (which is not present in the 'satellite' tables). How can i add the oilfield_ID column to the 'satellite' tables so i can link them properly?! (i can obvioulsy physically add an 'Oilfield_ID' column to the 'satellite field', but how do i populate it with all the correct IDs from the main table, to suit what is in the 'Name' column of the 'satellite' field- does that make sense?). I suppose I need to replace all of the Names with the IDs?
This has been giving me such a headache. The Oilfields table has 2500ish records, with as many as 1200 in the other tables linked to it.
Replacing Query
May 16, 2007hi. i are replacing queries in my tables to get the database ready to convert to SQLServer.
Am having a problem replacing a query that is brings in a table for a drop down and inserting the selection in the record.
during creation, the record shows a date, id, task, hours.
the datatable needs date, id, task_code, task_name, task_job, hours.
On "task" the drop-down allows for selection of several choices that are 3 columns wide. i can get the columns to show but only the first column currently goes in my new table. the table's columns that the selection comes from is "task_code,task_name, task_job". All columns are needed as different areas use the same task code but use different jobs or names.
I was told to use a insert into statement, however am having problems with it.
have as follows:
SQLStatement = "SELECT [Task_code], [Job_name], [Task_name] FROM tablea; "
rec.Open SQLStatement, , adOpenDynamic
job = rec(1)
task = rec(2)
rec.Close
SQLStatement = " Insert into [tableb]([Job_name],[Task_name]) " & _
" values (" & job & ", " & task & " ) "
rec2.Open SQLStatement, , adOpenDynamic
db.Execute (SQLStatement)
any point in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.
thanks,

Query On Other Queries Inc. IS NULL
Aug 16, 2007I have a form which a user can select upto 3 different options to search the main database.
The main table has:
RVA Date
Council
Introducer
PS NO
Period
Asset Description
Current Cost
SSAP21
Position
The three fields the user can search on is:
Council
PS No.
Asset Description
I have created 3 individual queries to find the records for each of the above, as the other two choices could be left blank.
Not sure if one super query can be done to show the records based on the user input (as I say one or two choices could be left blank).
So far I have managed to get a main query (based on the 3 other queries) to work on all choices made by the user except Asset Description with the other two left blank.
I have made relationships between the three queries on the main query. Linking Council,PS No. & Asset Description to each other.
Almost there, just need the main query to work on the user selecting Asset Description only.....
Nz - Null Values In Queries
Sep 12, 2007i have checked the forums and i know they kind of answer this question, but im not really sure where i am ment to write it!
I have two queries, which a third query subtracts the 1st query and 2nd query values and gives the end value. If the 2nd value is null, i get a null value at the end, as i need to change this to zero instead. i know i need to use nz (as seen in microsoft access help, and other places on this forum) but im not sure exactly where to put this on my query, and in which query.
Basically:
(qryCountpartNo.CountPartCode)-(qryTotalquantityallocated.sumofquantity) = qryTotalFree
both countpartcode and sumofquantity may be null at any time
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Emily
Queries :: Invalid Use Of Null
Feb 9, 2015I have a query feeding a form. It displays Active Orders. So the SQL is:
Code:
SELECT Orders.[Order ID], Orders.[Employee ID], Orders.[Customer ID], Orders.[Order Date], Orders.[Shipped Date], [Order Price Totals].[Price Total] AS [Sub Total], Orders.[Shipping Fee], Orders.Taxes, [Sub Total]+[Shipping Fee]+[Taxes] AS [Order Total], Orders.[Ship Name], Orders.[Ship Address], Orders.[Paid Date], [Orders Status].[status name] AS Status
FROM [Orders Status] RIGHT JOIN (Orders LEFT JOIN [Order Price Totals] ON Orders.[Order ID] = [Order Price Totals].OrderID) ON [Orders Status].[Status ID] = Orders.[Status ID]
ORDER BY Orders.[Order ID] DESC;
It has worked for the past year. However today is gives me an Invalid Use of Null error and will not load.

Replacing Most Recent Record
Dec 11, 2007Hi, Im building a DB that basically tracks the hours people have worked,
its all going fine apart from one major bug which i cant get my head around, I am trying to work out a way so that if someone decides to change the hours they have worked it replaces the existing record and does not create a new record.
Each record has a unique user ID attached and each day is dated, do you think this is a VBA solution or a change in the relationships perhaps?
Sorry fi there is already a similar answer to this question on the forum, but i couldnt find one!:confused:
Thanks in advance,
Paul
Comparing And Replacing Data
Oct 17, 2006Hi, I have 2 tables with similar data. However I need to compare this particular field called CompanyName in both tables. Reason being human error/exposition data errors. For example, Chef Kitchen Holdings Limited, in one table it is Chef Kitchen Holdings Ltd while the other table is Chef Kitchen Holdings Pte Limited, they both are the same but Access recognise them as 2 distinct datas.
Ｔｈｅｒｅｆｏｒｅ Ｉ need help in comparing datas between these 2 tables for this particular field. So long as there is 75% similarities, one of the 2 tables will have the data replaced.
Is that possible using Access? if not, how about excel? please suggest.
thanks.
Replacing Cell Value In A Table
Aug 1, 2007OK, here is my situation. I have an access database which is updated automatically every night with new data. My companies solution to this is each morning, the entire database is downloaded to my computer to be used by another application.
In one of the tables, there is a field that doesn't work for my purposes, so each day I have to manually open the table, and change the contents of that field for every record. For example, lets say I have the following table:
Field1 Field2 Field3 Field4
Rec1 Wigets Faucet Model1A
Rec2 Wigets Faucet Model1B
Rec3 Wigets Sink Model1A
Rec4 Wigets Sink Model1B
Rec5 Wigets Toilet Model1A
Each day I manually change Field2 so it reads "Total" and whatever is in Field2:
Field1 Field2 Field3 Field4
Rec1 Total Faucets Faucet Model1A
Rec2 Total Faucets Faucet Model1B
Rec3 Total Sinks Sink Model1A
Rec4 Total Sinks Sink Model1B
Rec5 Total Toilets Toilet Model1A
Each morning when I receive the new database download, they all go back to widgets.
Is there a macro or module I can create to automatically look at Field3, and then assign a new value to Field2 based on Field3's value?
Any help would be appreciated!!!!
Replacing Special Characters
Feb 20, 2007I am exporting an Access table as an xml file and need to be able to identify and replace '&', '(' and ')' as they are not accepted in xml.
Does anyone know how a query can be built which will find these characters in fields and update to ' and' or just remove?
Thanks
Null Values In Crosstab Queries
Apr 24, 2006Hi there, instead of blank fields in my crosstab query, and hence my report, i would like a standard comment, such as 'No Booking'.
My crosstab is something like this:
.........A...........B..............C............. D
1.......X
2.......X..........................X
3...................X............................. .X
(Ignore the dots, obviously)
Currently, when i try to open the report based on this query, it fails unless each column has data in it for at least one record.
I've tried using the Nz function but haven't been able to make it work. Thankyou in advance! :)

Queries :: Query With IIF And Null Entries
Jul 29, 2013I have a form that feeds information to a query which in turn sets up a report. For clarity i will list out in basic terms what I have
Input Form
- Check Box to activate/De-activate a text field [chk-active]
- Text field for a parameter [txt-Parameter]
the query has a column that has null values from the originating table. These values will be added a t a later date, but need to be queried and reported at some business intervals.
In the query criteria for this column, I have the following Criteria
Like IIF([Forms]![ReportGenerator]![chk-Active]=0, "*", [Forms]![ReportGenerator]![txt-Parameter])[/I][/I]
I have tried for the last 5 hours to figure out how to write the formula to be able to get the blank entries to show up as well but have had no luck.
