So there's a memo field in my database that has a copies of an entire email message. I was wondering if there was a way for me to search for, extract, and place specific information from the text in the email into a new field automatically for each of them.
View RepliesI need to find whether a memo field contains a specific word. I know how to find whether it contains a specific string.
Let's say I am looking for the word "run." I would not want a positive result when searching "I don't like gerunds," but I WOULD want to find the records with "I know how to 'run' a search."
So I am looking for WORDS, not matching strings.
I am perfectly willing to use a user-defined function, to put involved processing into the query, such as
Code:
...
WHERE FieldHasWord("run", memoField) = True
AND ...
I have a DB to keep track of my employees. I have one table with named EmployeeT with the basic information like name, address, phone number, etc. And another table named EmployeeHistoryT which tell me about there hisorty in the company, basically, If they were Late, did not show up, cancelled from that day. They share a relationship threw the employee ID. IN the history table, I have DateofAction:, TypeOfAction:, and Description:. In the type of action area I have it set to were you type in what they did, wether it be Late, Did not Show up, Cancelled, etc. I want to be able to get a total about of Late, Cancels, etc. I want to know that John Smith was Late 16 times, cancelled 10 times, and Did not show up 2 times. Is this possible with only one feild.

Now this is the form i'm linking it too:
As you can see the list box on the right is currently just showing the whole column under the Disallowed list, but I want it to show the specific country, obviously I'm using a single form template but the information changes depending on what country i'm on (I presume I need some kind of Query that uses whatever is shown in the Country box)
I was trying to use SELECT * from tblCountries where [Country]='"&forms!frmCountryDetail!Country&"'" but this is giving me an error from the [Country] tag so this isn't working:
I am trying to figure out how to make a button that sends an email to a specific email address, containing the information from 1 row.
we have rows where we put the the address, the quantity and the time interval we can collect the packages in. these information have to be send to a trucking company. I want access to send an email to the trucking company's email address, and not a whole report of all the rows, but be able to choose to send row 1,2,3 etc.
While I am not new to Access, I am not well versed in its abilities as far as combo boxes go. What I have is a Form where a combo box allows you to pick from a table records 'record ID #' in order to fill in the data of that record to the rest of the form.What I want to do is use a query to select specific records from this table and allow the combo box to show only these 'selected Record IDs' for user selection.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI 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"
Hey everyone,
Ive got a bit of a problem with my database at the moment. Here are the two tables im specificly having problems with:
Item Stock
Item size
Serial Number
Delivery Date
Date out
Stock level
Item Fitted
Item Size
Date fitted
Reg number
Date Removed
Serial Number
Position
Here I have Item stock as my base table. Item Size and Serial Number info is collected from the base table and put into a combo box.
What im trying to do is when a specific item has been fitted, for access to note the size, serial number and date fitted, and place it into the correct record in the base table. serial number and size to be put in its respective table, and date fitted to be put in the "date out" field.
This is rather annoying i know and a bit difficult to explain, if anyone could help over msn that would be great - david_4321@hotmail.com

First time member, Hello.
And sadly i am saying hello with a problem. I am a relatively new user, and i have a amateur(i think) problem.
Doing a booking system, and working in VBA
I want to check if certain records exist by date.
My "bookings" table has 'roomname' and 'date' and 'timeslot' as fields.
My query is:
strSQL = "SELECT * FROM bookings WHERE (((bookings.room)=" & roomName & ") AND ((bookings.date)=#" & dateStr & "#));"
I need to get all those records, and be able do certain checks on them, but I dont know how to execute that in VBA, so i check the records to see which time slots have been booked.
In pseudocode:
If(bookings.date == #xxx# AND bookings.timeslot == xx)
then 'some sort of action'
In short how do i filter specific records using my query and how do i access record information directly in VBA? research suggests recordsets, but not sure how to implement that
Thanks in advance
I'm fairly new to Access. 's various select queries containing useful and useless results. I want to create a select query that will pick out all the useful figures into a 1 row table that can then be pasted into Excel.
e.g Existing Select Query 1 returns 1 row showing Average Age, Average Price, Total rainfall
Existing Select Query 2 returns 1 row showing Average Weight, Average Salary, Total snowfall
Existing Select Query 3 returns *2* rows: It returns Distance from London, Hours daylight and population for Town A and Town B
I want a select query that returns 1 row showing (6 items):
Total rainfall, Total snowfall, Town A Distance from London, Town A Population, Town B Distance from London, Town B Population.
I've been able to handle getting Total rainfall and Total snowfall. But I cant figure out how to get Town A Distance from London, Town A Population, Town B Distance from London, Town B Population to appear in the same row of the same query results as Total rainfall, Total snowfall.
I'm trying to use code to relink the the table but that is not the only table that is linked in the DB. The other linked tables are in other databases so I want to select specific tables to relink as the others may not need it. I alway will want to select the path.
here is an example of the code I'm using I got it from one of the other users here.
This is killing me,
I have a form with a unique ID, I have a query that pulls all data regardless of the ID on the form.
How can I get the Query to pull only the data for the ID that is currently in view on the form?
Please help..

Hi all, I need to extract in a query a recent range of records, these records should be all before a certain date and all the following future records example:
if today date is 12/12/2007 I need to extract all records that are dated from the 1st of november and all the records that come after the 12/12/2007.
In the criteria I have set "Date()" what else should I be adding to get the range mentioned above?
Thanks
Hello,
I'm sure this has a simple solution, but iv searched this forum and every solution that i get is filled with code that goes over my head! Well here goes...
I have a main form called expense... which contains a tab control. the tabcontrol in turn has three pages containing a subform each. (lets call them sbfrm1 sbfrm2 and sbrm3.)
All three subforms are based on three different queries (say Qry1 Qry2 and Qry3) but the three queries are based on the same table. this table contains all the expenses incurred over the months across three categories (hence three queries). the subforms are to display these expenses according to categories.. i.e. sbfrm1 displays records pertaining to Category1, sbfrm2 for category2 etc.(the queries ensure that!)
when the main form opens, the subforms display all the records in the table according to category...but not according to the month in which the expenditure was incurred.
I now want to add a feature that enables the user to choose records pertaining to a given month at the click of a button.
for eg. if there is an option group named month, (with toggle buttons as the month names), then if the user selects the month Aug, then immediately the subform1 displays records under category1 for the month Aug? However I want to include an "ALL" option as well whereby all the records are displayed for all months (the category criteria must be maintained at any cost!!!!
Is there a solution that will not use too much code!
Thanks in advance.
OK I have done a select case as follows
Private Sub Form_Current()
Select Case DatePart("w", Tape_Date)
Case 1, 3, 5
Clearly this runs/works on a Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday.
I have tried to adjust this to work on a specific date but I'm struggling.
Would I use 'datePart' or just 'Date' and what format in the case would I use.
Thanks in advance
I have a table that stores price records with a field for the effective date but there is no field for the inactive date. How can I write a query to return the price for a date that falls between recorded effective dates?
Example: A record exists for 12/03/2005 and the next is 01/04/2005. How can I find the effective price on 18/04/2005?
Thanks
How can I setup my form print button to print to a specific printer, and then to a specific tray? We need to use different colors depending on the item we're printing. This is possible by changing the printer settings as I print each form, but I'd like a more automated way to do this. Help please. Jolene

I need to select from a table field of upto 50 characters: the first 15 characters and then the remaining charachters (i.e. after 15...)
I would much apreciate some help...
Thanx
Set TRANS1 = db.OpenRecordset("SELECT * FROM MASTER WHERE DatePart("yyyy", TRANS1![CDATE]) = " & 2014, dbOpenDynaset)
In the above recordset selection, the ACCESS seems do not allow to have the DATEPART("YYYY") function in the syntax. As CDATE is a table field with date/time data type. Just want to know, how to do this kind of date selection. My purpose is to select all records according to a specific date to the TRANS1 recordset.
I have stumbled across an issue in my report involving the Report.SourceObject property. The section of the report contains a subreport that needs to change dynamically to display the report that relates to the corresponding test. When trying to change the subreports.Sourceobject property I get the error Run-time error 2191: You cant set the Source Object Property in the print preview or after printing has started.This is very clear to me what the limitation is, however I was wondering if there was some way around this.
I have currently tried creating multiple subreports that are stacked on each other with visible property set to false. Then I change the specific subreport visible property base of a select. This worked, but was extremely hard on the machine and printer as there is about 15 different possible subreports.
Secondly I have tried exporting it to RTF and just manually copying and pasting the tables. The down side with this is all the formatting and work I have put into the report as a whole goes out the window so if possible would like to avoid this situation as well.
I need to create a simple database where I have a list of people, a list of groups and all I want to do is select which people belong to specific groups.

Hello all,
I'm having a bit of a problem with a query that I am trying to run that searches a memo field, and I hope someone can help me!
Basically, I have a fairly simple database, 2 tables - 1 of the tables has a memo field which has 'keywords' listed in it (a mixture of words/phrases separated by commas, although I've tried with just spaces in between).
When I search using a Query box for 2 keywords using the following query, it can only find the correct records when I enter the keywords in the reverse order in which they appear in the memo field...
query: Like "*" & [Enter the 1st keyword to search for] And Like "*" & [Enter the 2nd keyword to search for] & "*"
If the memo field has data eg, "funding, teaching" (as opposed to "funding, nursing" for example) and I search for 'funding' and then 'teaching' - no results appear.
If however, I search for 'teaching' and then 'funding'... ta da! Result found.
Obviously, whoever searches the database isn't necessarily going to know what order the words were entered into the memo field!
So, is this a peculiarity to Access, or is there something I'm doing wrong?
Thank you in advance for your help.
I have a table that contains a memo that is delimited by line breaks. For each of these breaks i need a new record in the query results that i can then use in a Labelling application.
My current query looks something like:
ID | Product | Pack Size
1 | item a | 1x1000,1x1050
2 | item b | 1x1000,20x25
3 | item a | 1x1000
(Where the , is a new line)
Whereas my ideal output is:
ID | Product | PackSize
1 | Item a | 1x1000
1 | Item a | 1x1050
2 | Item b | 1x1000
2 | Item b | 20x25
etc.
I think im supposed to use the Split() Function though i dont have a clue wherw to start.
I have a query that is truncating a memo field to 255 characters. There is no distinct, group by, format, union or concatenate in the query which are the common cause for truncation.The truncated memo field is comments.
Code:
SELECT HearingAuditTbl.CASE_NUMBER,
Null AS appealcaseid,
HearingAuditTbl.HEARING_ALJ,
Null AS DecisionCode,
HearingAuditTbl.DECISION_DT AS ALJ_Date,
HearingAuditViolations.VIOLATION_NO,
HearingAuditViolations.COMMENTS,
"CATEGORY_B" AS CATEGORY,
NOW() AS DATE_ADDED
[code]...
I have a Make Table query that includes a new field concatenated from a numeric field and a memo field, with some assorted text elements -
Issue Description:"("&[number]&") "&[Description]
When I run the Make Table, the new field "Issue Description" is created as a text field, NOT as a memo field.
Is there any way to insure that this field is created as a memo field.
Thanks.
