I cannot get my query to return result when I enter the month of "June" as search criteria. June is listed in the table and query, every other month is returned except June.
I have a database that is tracking attendance for several 100 employees. The Db is mainly used to log any policy occurrences (no call, no show). If an associate doesn't have any occurrences for a month, then they get a point credit. Right now, I set it up so the credit can be manually added. the problem is a supervisor (the user) may not know if their associate should receive this credit unless they review their attendance report. Opening the form to add a policy occurrence, then running a report to only re-open the same attendance form is inefficient. What I'd like to have is a way to have a credit automatically added if they did not receive any points for a particular month.
ps. My office does not allow uploading any data/files so I am not able to upload a copy/sample.
I have an access table which has a key using letters (A,B,C,D...etc). Against each letter there is multiple rows against each letter. However for testing purposes I only need to get a single row against each key and I was wondering if there is a function I could use which would return only the first record of data for each key?
I've got a database of club members with names, addresses, contact info etc.
I need to send letters by post to those members that I don't have email addresses for. How to create a query to return a list of people whom I don't have email addresses for.
I know how to mail merge the info with the letter I've written in word, how to group people who's email address cell is empty.
I have a table which has a column 'Date', which contains dates in the format dd/mm/yy. I wish to produce a quiery which will produce an extra column entitled 'month', which will match each date to the month of that date. I know there is a formula which does this (called 'month' i think), but i dont know how to use it to achieve what I want.
Hey all, I have a form that has two textboxes, one box is for month and the other is for the year. After I enter the month and year I want, I click on a command button that previews a report. Well, the report is not giving me the information for that particular month and year, actually it gives me nothing.
The report gets its information from a query. In that queries criteria field is the below expression that I have.
Like [forms]![frmPEL]![cboMonth] & "/*/" & Right([forms]![frmPEL]![txtYear],2)
Can anyone see anything wrong with this? I should be able to enter the month and year and click on the report button I want and preview that report, but no joy.
I am trying to create a Totals Query which returns a data set between two dates. So far I have managed to select the data I want (Please see attached screenshot). However, I only want to select records between a date range working on my field [DueDate]. If I add the due date field to the current query then it removes the grouping and all records are displayed.
Each month I use Access to import text files and export cleansed data to Excel.
The information contains (i.e. forecast data) that has 6 months of data. Each month, the data is rolled over to include the new month and delete the oldest month of data.
Is there a query(s) or module that can automate this process?
I would like a query to return dates based upon the input of just the day and month. At the moment I have a parameter query which asks for 'start date' and 'end date' and this works fine, but I want the query to return all the records for all the years in the database and not just the current one (date format is dd/mm/yy)
So if I type <start date> 01/01 and <end date> 02/01 the query will return:
I was just wondering if this is a possibility to do in one query or if it has to be run from a number of different queries.
I am currently developing a database from scratch for work (with very little Access experience).
The current query I am trying to run, if linked to a number of tables with different information.
What I am trying to do primarily is link stock to a specific "Host Name", "Serial Number" and "Part Description".
In the "Host Name" there is for example - A1-TX10-10001, B1-TX2-10004, C1-TX-10004 - The latter part of the name is a unique identifier number. The first part is the compartment in which the "stock" sits. So you may have all three components (A1-TX1, B1-TX2, C1-TX3) linked to the same unique identifier (10001 for example)
The serial numbers naturally are different for every single one and of course the srial numbers are linked to the "Part Description" - which will read something like....."C1-TX3 Transmitter", "B1-TX2 Combiner" etc.....
When I run the query like this the Host Name (which is also linked to the unique identifier on its own (10001) it returns everything under "A1-TX1-10001"
What I would ideally like to do is write a statement so that if the "Part Description" contains "A1-TX1" it will only return rows that contain "A1-TX1" in the Host Name and the same for "B1-TX2" and "C1-TX3" in the same query.
If "Host Name" contains "A1-TX1" to return "Part Description" to contain "A1-TX1"
[Forms]![FormName]![Field] or [Forms]![FormName]![Field] Is Null
Ordinarily this works fine in returning either the selected value or all values if left null.
I need to pull in data from a Crosstab query, which means setting my parameter labels to [Forms]![FormName]![Field].
The problem is that setting the parameter labels is conflicting with pulling all records if the form dropdown is left null.
If I keep my parameters simple and just say [Forms]![FormName]![Field] then the query works with the crosstab data, but I can't do that. I need to show any records if the dropdown is left null.
The crosstab data isn't specifically the problem but needing to set the parameter names seems to be
I think I may have found a workaround by labeling the column headings in the crosstab, which means I don't have to assign parameter labels
It would still be good to know if there's a way of making it work with the parameter labels but this will do for now...
I have a table with duplicate records (which is ok) and I want to return distinct data for each client.
It works fine when there is only two fields returned however, when I add a third field to the query it no longer returns only the Distinct records - I am getting Duplicates returned.
I.E
SELECT DISTINCT tblClient.ClientNo, tblClient.Name FROM tblClient
Works fine with only the Distinct records for each client returned
However
SELECT DISTINCT tblClient.ClientNo, tblClient.Name, tblClient.Address, tblClient.OrderValue FROM tblClient
Now returns Duplicates!
Is there a limit to the number of fields to be returned using DISTINCT or what else could be the problem? Should I be doing this some other way?
I have an appointment database with, of course a Date field.I would like to be able to filter the records to show appointments for a particular month.I want to see what appointments I have for September, for example.Ideally I would like to populate a combo box with month names and filter the form based on the month selected.
I am trying to create a database that will keep track of the orders placed for a given part number by month. Currently, my table houses the part number, and the ordered amount for the past three years by month (there are thirty-five columns for every part). My column headings are ORDER_MAY_2013, etc. I would like to set a query up that will look at the column headings and pull the amounts ordered for each part for the past twelve months. In other words, I have three years of data in my table. In my query, I just want one year. However, I don't want to have to rewrite the query every month so that it will pick up the new data. Is there a way to accomplish this?
Is there a better way to build this database? I thought about just have four columns in my table - PART_NUMBER, ORDER_MONTH, ORDER_YEAR, ORDER_AMOUNT. The only problem there, is that every part (there are about 450 parts) would have to be listed 35+ times. That seemed too redundant to me, so I built the table this way. However, now I am having trouble querying against it.
I have an access database with 8 tables and as many queries and forms. Our company uses an application that performs backups of other companies data, this data is imported into access into one table. The backups are scheduled to run overnight, but sometimes they do not start for whatever reason. We need to use a query to identify when a backup does not start, so therefore to identify when data does not appear or exist in the table.
This problem is only concerned with two tables. In one table i have the backups policies (Backup Policy) and the details about when the backup should run. In the other, the main table (Backup) is the actual data that has been imported. So far I have queried only the backup policies that should run, but i need to go one step further and compare this to data in the Backup table that does not exist.
Im not sure whether this should be a bit of code in the query that compares data in the Backup Policy table with that in the Backup table when it is not present.
Ideally i need something that says. "If a particular policy name does not appear in any record in the Backup table, report back a list of policy names."
OR
(Lookup a list of policy names in table backup policy,
if these policy names do not appear in the backup table, report back a list of the policy names,
if these policy names appear in the backup table, do not report back a list of the policy names)
If anyone has any ideas if this is possible, and how, I would be most grateful. Also, if it involves the use of code or functions etc I may need a little bit of guidance!!
Let me know if you need any more details of the table structures.
I put a Dlookup function to compare the new entry in a form and the code is like this:
If (Not IsNull(DLookup("[empno]", "Attnd_tbl" , "[empno]=[empnotxt]")))then MsgBox "This Employee Already Exists" cancel = true Me!empnotxt.undo end if end sub
this works for comparing one field only, since I want to check if the employee is already entered on a certain date, how do I put two fields in this function to be looked up if for example "[empno]and[date]","Attnd_tbl","[empno]and[date]=[empnotxt]and[datetxt]"
I need to find all MaintItems which field MIC don't exist in either MIC1 or MIC2. So the only result which I need to see is MaintItem '5100161086' as MIC <> MIC1 Unfortunately I can create query which would approve '5100662734' as well
So bottom line I need a query which will display only the row below as MIC doesn't exist in neither MIC1 nore MIC2. Also I will have to deal with much more MICs soon so maybe there is a way to concatenate them and compare, isn't it? 5100161086 500001711 50000173
Attached query is what I got so far, but that displays last 3 rows of table above
