Queries :: Set Criteria By Having Combination Of Three Options - Or Statement
Aug 19, 2013
In my query, I am looking to set the criteria by having the user pick 1 of 3 options, or a combination of those three options. Here's an example:
The fields are Manager, Employee, Job Function. Let's also say that my criteria is David, John, Busy Work. I want to be able to pull results by David, John, Busy Work, or a combination of those three.
My Query for picking 1 of the 3 looks like this:
Field: Manager Employee Job Function
Criteria: David
Or: John
Busy Work
When I try to add additional Or statements, it never works. An example would be in the fourth line of the criteria, I add:
David John
Running the query produces only the results for David. Mixing it up produces only the results from the first item in the criteria (Manager over Employee over Job Function).
Code: ID studentname lectureplace lecturesubject 1 jack A Biology 2 steve A politics 3 jack B math 4 steve A math 5 jack B politics 6 joe A politics . . . . . . . . 154 Jane B Geography
We need a query to implement two criteria to extract the following records:
1-Show lectureplace A AND politics lecturesubject 2-Show only those with lectureplace B regardless of the subject
In case the query is run we will have the following result:
Code: ID studentname lectureplace lecturesubject 2 steve A politics 3 jack B math 5 jack B politics 6 joe A politics
I am working on a fairly ancient manufacturing database that identifies items using a combination of letters and numbers. The usual format is to have a letter (which suggests something about the item type) followed by a sequence of numbers.
I am trying to write a query that looks up all the records beginning with a prefix or arbitrary length, strips away the text, and finds the highest number.
Code:
SELECT Right(LocalID,Len(LocalID) - 1) As IDSuffix FROM tblItemIDCrossReference WHERE Left(LocalID,1) = 'T' AND IsNumeric(Right(LocalID,Len(LocalID) - 1)=True)
This query produces the error given in the title of this thread, whilst the following works:
Code:
SELECT Right(LocalID,Len(LocalID) - 1) As IDSuffix FROM tblItemIDCrossReference WHERE Left(LocalID,1) = 'T' AND IsNumeric(Right(LocalID,5)=True)
This related query also works and shows a load of -1s and 0s correctly
Code:
SELECT Right(LocalID,Len(LocalID) - 1) As IDSuffix, IsNumeric(Right(LocalID,Len(LocalID) - 1)=True) As Alias FROM tblItemIDCrossReference WHERE Left(LocalID,1) = 'T' AND
But once again shows the error message when I try to filter the field Alias to -1 or 0 only through the right-click menu.I have tried piping Len(LocalID)-1 through CLng, CInt, Int, CDbl and CSng; this changes the error to 'Invalid Use Of Null' I have also tried removing the '=True' from the IsNumeric() term.
I am able to successfully set one of the above as a criteria just fine.I am stalled on trying to combine two or more of the above in an iif statement. Here is what I 'think it should look like:
In other words, in a separate field, I would like to print a period name such as above.I have not been able to find any reference to connect these long criteria together in one query expression.
My workaround is to use a union query. That works, but it is a little clumsy due to some outer joins which require a separate query. If that is my only solution, I will run with it.
I'm working on a published sharepoint web access database, writing a criteria expression in data source of a combo box.The field I'm setting criteria is called SharePointAuthor.
I wrote this critea: IIf(CurrentWebUser(1)="John Doe","*",CurrentWebUser(1))
Trying to show all records when currentwebuser is John Doe, otherwise, show only records created by currentwebuser.Funny thing is that it turns out "John Doe" couldn't see any records, while other users can see their own records as expected.
I have a form with a check box. A query is run that looks at that check box and decides what the criteria are based on that. So, if the check box is checked, it should pull in all data in the field that is a Y. If it is not checked, i want it to pull all data (Y's and N's and blanks).
Is it possible to do combination of these two queries?
SELECT * FROM tblGoraZleceniaNowaWyceny WHERE [id_wycena_pre] = Forms!frmWycenyObszarroboczy!ID_wycena_pre[/CODE]
and
Code: SELECT [Query1].[NumerArkusza], [Query1].[nazwa], [Query1].[id_wycena_pre] FROM Query1 WHERE ((([Query1].[numerarkusza]) In (SELECT [numerarkusza] FROM [Query1] As Tmp GROUP BY [numerarkusza] HAVING Count(*)>1 )));
I'm building a database with supplier information. Some users prefer to use the supplier names, but it is sometimes hard know how foreign suppliers are spelled, therefore some users prefer to use supplier numbers.
I want my form to show all supplier data based on either the supplier number or the supplier name, which can both be chosen from 2 comboboxes.
In addition, and here's the catch, I would also like the two comboboxes to update eachother. So if I choose supplier 2 in the first box, the other box should automatically show me the name of vendor 2 and vice versa.
I need to create a query where in the end, I will have four rows of data based on based on two combinations of WaterSourceType and Crop.
I need the query to bring back the results of the average Top N (lets say Top 10%) for each combination.
I have tried this every which way and I can't seem to get it grouped like I want it. I NEED to have four distinct rows with the average of the ProfitPerBushel for each grouping.
Basically, what this does is show me the average profitablity of the top 10% in each grouping.
Now, I know that something in the UPDATE statement does not match my select statement.What should my Update Statement be, in order to update all the columns in the joined tables?
A database I'm creating contains records of events within an academic year. There will be many events in the table, and I want to create a query to show me only those events in the current academic year.
I figure that I need to use some sort of iff statement to make this happen; something which says:
IF the current date is before 31-Aug-CurrentYear THEN display records in the range 01-Sep-LastYear and 31-Aug-ThisYear ELSE display records in the range 01-Sep-ThisYear and 31-Aug-NextYear.
I've had a go at writing this, but can't get my code to work. Can anyone help?
Is there a problem with using an IIf statement in the criteria of a query. If ther isn't then is there a problem with using a Between...And statement inside the IIf statement. Or, does anybody see a problem with this IIf statement being in the criteria of a query.
IIf([blinks_test_end].[Blinks]<>[blinks_test_start].[Blinks],([daily_extract].[Reading_Date]) Between [blinks_test_start]![Reading_Date] And [blinks_test_end]![Reading_date],Null)
[blinks_test_end] and [blinks_test_start] are queries that use the table [daily_extract] the query that I am trying to run uses these queries and the table, however, I have nothing joined. The IIf statement is in the criteria of the [daily_extract].[Reading_Date] field.
I have a query with the following criteria in one of the fields:
>=DateAdd("m",-12,fom()) And <=DateAdd("m",1,fom())
fom is a function for first of the current month. I need this query to be specific to what month it is when its ran so i want to only have this criteria if the month is > = october. If it isnt October or greater, i want the criteria to reflect this.
>=DateAdd("m",-12,fom()) And <=fom()
Which also works by itself. But when i add it to an iif statement it always produces no results. Below is the iif statement.
Iif(month(date())>=10, >=DateAdd("m",-12,fom()) And <=DateAdd("m",1,fom()),>=DateAdd("m",-12,fom()) And <=fom())
I have also added the column name to each expression and it still doesnt produce any results.
I have the following statement entered in the query criteria section.
SELECT MAX(EDRMPeriod) FROM EDRAppC WHERE EDRMPeriod Between DateAdd("yyyy",-1,DateSerial(Year(EDRMPeriod),Month(EDRMPeriod)+1, 1)) AND DateSerial(Year(EDRMPeriod),Month(EDRMPeriod)+1,1) GROUP BY EDRCHPlan
I am getting a syntax error. This statement runs fine and produces the results I want in Queryman. Thanks for any help. k
I have the following IIF statement in the criteria of a query (design view). There are three options: (1) Confirmed (2) Failed (3) Pending. Options 1 and 2 are working fine however when option 3 is selected, no records are returned... not quite sure if I've written the IIF correctly for option 3.
IIf([Forms]![Pending_Bookings]![Confirmed]=-1,"Booking Confirmed") Or IIf([Forms]![Pending_Bookings]![Failed]=-1,"Failed Booking") Or IIf([Forms]![Pending_Bookings]![Pending]=-1,([Status_Codes].[StatusName])<>"Booking Confirmed"<>"Failed Booking")
I need to use square brackets as part of the criteria in a LIKE SQL statement. The criteria is:
[ABC123][SR]
ie, find all records which have that as part of a longer text string. How can I amend the SQL statement below to "escape" the square brackets and treat them as part of the string?
SELECT * FROM p_Overall WHERE (((p_Overall.Assigned_Dept)="ICONS_IMAC")) OR (((p_Overall.Brief_Description) Like '*[ABC123][SR]*'));
I'm trying to create a report that does the following:
If the term "Other" is selected in the Time1 field, then the Time1 field will not be visible, but the field Other1 field will be visible and if the term "Other" is not selected in Time1 field, then the Time1 field will be visible and the Other1 field will not be. This is what I have for VBA code, but it is not working.
If Not IsNull(Me.Time1) Then If Me.Time1 = "Other" Then Me.Time1.Visible = False Else Me.Time1.Visible = True
I am creating a report that has a filter based on 3 separate listboxes. The user has the option of choosing one or more filter criteria from each listbox. The trouble I am having is if the user only chooses one filter, I need to adjust my filter string. This is the code that generates the filter:
I'm trying to create a button that posts an order and before it post certain criterias need to be meet. One of them is a date needs to be selected in the order, if not a popup show to explain. The trouble I'm having is referring to todays date in the VBA code. I've been reading and trying different things but not getting anywhere, hopefully someone can fill me in.
This is the code I'm working with.
If [PayOrderMoneyReceivedSubform].[Form]![OrderDate] = TodaysDate Then dosomething else donothing end if
The part I'm having trouble with is TodaysDate, what should I be putting there?
I've been banging my head of a brick wall with this one. Its probably straight forward... but I can't see the solution! A problem shared is a problem halved... or so they say!
Ok I have this table called CustomerComments. In it are the following columns
CustID Comment CommentDate
For each custID I want the most recent commentdate and its matching comment from that row... (there can be multilple comments recorded per custID)
Problem is I can't seem to get this to work.. instead its returning all rows. I have run a query that will sort and group this list. The top line of the grouping gives the most recent comment and commentdate per customer.
Does anyone know how I could just get that top line per custID rather than all rows returned?
