Queries :: Sum A Value Based Off Multiple Fields
Oct 22, 2013
I'm trying to build a query that uses the information pulled from controls on a form called "CharacterCreation" - 2 of the controls are "Race" and "Class", and the form stores this data in a "Characters" table.The query needs to refer to the Characters table, and another table called "Modifiers".In this second table I have several numerical fields such as hp, str, etc, and I have two other fields called "Type_Modifier" and "Type" Among the Type_Modifiers are Race and Class, where their corresponding "Type" could be for instance Demon and Magician..
So the idea is that when I mark on the form (and thus creating the record in the first table) a Race of "Demon", and a class of "Magician" I want the query to refer to both of these fields, and sum the values in the second table where the "Type" is either "Demon" or "Magician" or whatever I decided to choose. I feel like I should be able to figure this out but I'm having a hard time..Here's an example of the SQL I've tried that shows nothing.
Code:
SELECT Characters.Char_Name, Sum(Modifiers.hp) AS SumOfhp
FROM Modifiers INNER JOIN Characters ON (Modifiers.Type = Characters.Class) AND (Modifiers.Type = Characters.Color2) AND (Modifiers.Type = Characters.Color1) AND (Modifiers.Type = Characters.Species) AND (Modifiers.Type = Characters.Race)
GROUP BY Characters.Char_Name, Modifiers.Type
HAVING (((Modifiers.Type)=[Characters].[Race]));
I also tried this, which I thought would work but it displays nothing as well.
Code:
SELECT Characters.Char_Name, Sum(Modifiers.hp) AS SumOfhp
FROM Modifiers INNER JOIN Characters ON (Modifiers.Type = Characters.Class) AND (Modifiers.Type = Characters.Color2) AND (Modifiers.Type = Characters.Color1) AND (Modifiers.Type = Characters.Species) AND (Modifiers.Type = Characters.Race)
GROUP BY Characters.Char_Name, [Type]=[Characters].[Race];

I have a database that contains details of payments returned to a bank account without sufficient information to identify who the money belongs to.
The DB is used by a team of people to retrieve details of an individual entry and when they have figured out who the money should be sent to they can mark that the payment has been "located". We can only send the refund at certain times of the month, so there is another activity "applied" where we have entered details on internal systems for the refund to be processed. Finally, once a month we physically transfer the money out of the bank account and add a "completed" date to all entries that were "applied" before that date.
My manager would like to be able to look back at a certain date to see what the balance was so he can make charts and whatever else in Excel. The balance will be all payments that were not marked as "completed" on that particular date.
I'm having trouble making a query that will give him the balance for each day in the past.
The important tables/fields here are
TBL_MAIN - dateReceived (date) and amountRefunded (currency)
TLK_LOCATED - appliedDate (date/Time) completedDate (date/Time)
TBL_DATES - activityDate - just a list of dates, which I use for a similar query of the amount we located/applied each day
So I'm looking for a query that will list all dates in tbl_dates against the sum of amountReceived up until that date, with the sum of amountReceived where completedDate is less than the date listed subtracted.

I need to count records based on multiple criteria from two different tables. I have two tables (i.e. "tblTasks" and "tblTaskHistory"). The tables have a one-to-many relationship based on the "TaskID" field. "tblTasks" has a field called "AssignedTo" and "tblTaskHistory" has a field called "TaskStatus". I need to know how many tasks have been "reopened", the "reopened" status is located in the "TaskStatus" field in "tblTaskHistory". I need this count against a unique listing of employees which can be found in the "AssignedTo" field in "tblTasks".

how or what function (DLookup) should I use to prevent duplicate records based on multiple fields? I want to look at data in three fields that can't match existing data in those three fields. It's ok if one or two of the fields match but not all three.

I promise I have searched, but I hav spent 10 minutes reading through posts that are unrelated...
What is the code to have multiple fields updaterd based on what is input into a field?
---
Example:
A ZIP Code Field, which updates City & State on the form when entered. (I have a table that has over 39,000 ZIPs w/ City & State already there)
---
I have several applications for this, but if someone could explain this use to me, I will be able to figure it out.
Thanks a million!!!

I've been playing around with a new database design and ran into a possible 'error' that I would like to avoid.
It's going to be a payroll database to store time codes for hours spent working on specific projects. I have been struggling on how to put this together to fit with what we've been doing for years and I think I hit a few breakthroughs this morning.
However I want to avoid this error of possible duplication of entry.
Simple table set up - primary key is just a running integer; Employee ID; and Week Ending Date.
I can have multiple week ending dates for a specific employee; but I want to avoid having the same employee with the same week ending date. I cannot set up either field as being unique.
Quick run of data that would be in this table:
Code:
1 ABC 11/21/2014
2 ABC 11/27/2014
3 ABC 12/07/2014
4 DEF 11/21/2014
5 DEF 11/27/2014
6 DEF 12/07/2014
7 ABC 11/27/2014
in this example, when the last row is entered I need to get a popup or some warning that this time has already been entered.

I want to create a parametric search for tools on the shop floor based on multiple fields [using VBA]
I've had a good search and turned up lots of useful things; but each example insofar has been fairly specific as opposed to a guide on how to implement it in a wider setting.
Let us say, for example, that my database has three fields each with a bound combo box: location; house-type; number of bedrooms
As I type in location, I want it to filter my results in the other boxes to that location (should be a simple case of applying a filter?) - which leaves me with all the house-types and bedroom-counts in that location.
As I type in the house-type, I want it to then narrow down the search again to filter the "location"+"house-type" to leave me with the available number of bedrooms.
What is the best way to implement this, given that I have about 20 fields*, some of which will inevitably be blank: as the user types in (or selects using combo boxes) the data required, it narrows down the search - and finally there's a "search all" button which returns all results matching the current criteria.
When I say "implement" I mean what underlying structure should I use. Is it best to create a query and update the query as items are entered, or would it be better to filter the form that's having the data entered?
The fields are organised sensibly into sub-forms for various characteristics (i.e manufacturing data, materials data, cutting data, etc, etc), don't worry - it's note a huge mess - and the code is all there to pull the data together as required!

I have two tables, one table (1) hold three fields, one of those fields is the master key (index). The other table (2) has a field which I want to lookup from table 1, that part is working. In the combo box I get all three fields displayed as I make my selection. I want to copy the other two fields as text at the time the lookup index is selected. I do not what the fields to automatically update each time the table is displayed. I have looked at update macros, I've looked at VBA.

Let's say I have a table called "Courses" which among other things has "Completed"(Yes/No) and "Category"(Text).
Now, there also another table "Progress" which has similar columns.
I want Progress.Completed to reflect if all courses of the specified category have been completed.
How would I do that? I'm new to access ...

I have a report which I would like to apply conditional formatting on multiple fields. I would like the conditional formatting to be based on two types of criteria
First criteria would be contracts that start with the year 2014. I used the following expression which worked - InStr(1,[ContractNr],"2014" AND [DirectorInCharge]= "Joseph Steinbok" or "Adam Godson")
To this expression I would also like to highlight fields which contracts start with 2014 AND have a particular Director assigned to it. For this I used the following expression - And [DirectorInCharge]="Name"
On their own, both expressions are working but I want to combine them. How do I do this? I've tried the following - InStr(1,[ContractNr],"2014" AND [DirectorInCharge]= "Name") but then nothing is highlighted. I also tried InStr(1,[ContractNr],"2014") AND [DirectorInCharge]= "Name" - in this instance EVERY record was highlighted.

I have 3 select queries which Im trying to output to a combo - Ive tried a UNION query but I get an error
ODBC-- call failed ODBC Driver SQLBase.....
Firstly is do the results need to match within a union query? I mean they have no relationship what so ever Im just trying to populate this combo with the same results.
Secondly is there a better way to do it? 2 of the select queries query a linked SQL table and the third is a local table. All of the select queries work on their own.

I have a form (form1) that will populate with records (table1) based on key fields of "Project Number" and at time-points we will update part of the record, and then we create a word document detailing the updates with a couple of other bits of information not in original record.
Basically I want it to go from the original form (form1) into another form (form2) (via a command button) taking the key field of "Project Number" where it will ask the bits of information that we don't need have already and the contact person.
I have got this to store in a different table (table2) using a key field of just "ID" from the original records (table1). A list of contact people are in a separate table (table3) using a key field of "contact name" which will include other details for them such as address and phone number.
So from "form2" I would like to produce a report that contains information form "table1" based on the "Project Number" and "table2" based on "ID" as just been generated and "table 3" which is based on "contact name".
So I want to pull information form the records based on the certain key fields but struggling for it to pull it successfully...
Got relationships between:
"contact name" fields in both "table2" and "table3"
"project number" fields in both "table1" and table2"
In a query for the report I have all the appropriate fields, but only have the "contact name" and "project number" from "table2" is this right? or do I need both in?
Or would it be easier to draw all this information into "form2" but don't really want to select that many drop down boxes or would it be able to pull it from the "contact name" and "project number" boxes????

I have a database in which we are trying to have a field "Headcount" automatically fill with the correct value based on information in multiple fields. The "Headcount" field will be based on about 6 or 7 rules. Most of the rules i can figure out, but im having trouble figuring out what the best way would be to search for a single individual's projects when they are on more than one project at a time. I thought about using a counter of sorts to count how many projects someone was one, but how do I pick them out of the entire table once i have found out the number of projects? Would a for loop work best or just many if statements?

I have 3 cross tab queries that are completely identical with the exception of the field that they pivot. Each field is searching for the same values just in different columns, with the end goal being to get the sum of the values for each pivoted column. I'm wondering rather than having 3 almost identical queries is there a way to use a crosstab to sum the values from each of the three fields rather that having 3 queries which then have to be aggregated in a fourth?
QUERY1
Code:
TRANSFORM
IIf(Count(PT_LEVEL.UNIT) Is Null,0,Count(PT_LEVEL.UNIT)) AS CountOfUNIT
SELECT
PT_LEVEL.INF_YEAR,
PT_LEVEL.INF_MONTH,
PT_LEVEL.UNIT

If I want to sum the percentages from April, May and June only if a column is Not Null, how would I do that?
example
Tbl 1
PK, Month
Percent
Tbl 2
FK, Month Enrolled
Qty of Rx in the 1st month enrolled
Qty of Rx in 2nd qtr
Base (if Qty of Rx in 2nd Qtr is null then Qty of Rx in 1st month enrolled)
If Qty of Rx in 2nd QTR is NOT NULL then QTY of Rx in 2nd Qtr * Sum of April Percent+May Percent+June Percent, otherwise Qty of Rx in 1st month enrolled * Month Percent
Im getting stuck on how to sum the percents of April, May and June and then multiplying the result times the Qty ONLY IF the field is not null.
I only know how to create Query's using the design mode. I dont know how to write SQL statements.

I have an excel data file that is updated monthly (and I am not able to have the source file format changed of course) that will be my linked table for Access 2007. The file reports monthly data and adds the new month to the right of the historic in a layout like this:
Tree | Orchard | Province | Jan % red | Jan % green | # Limbs | Feb % red | Feb % green... etc so each month it adds 3 new fields to the data.
I have queries (rightly or wrongly) that will calculate the number of apples that month and report on those higher than a certain percentage. I would like to do this without having to create a static table to append to each month as the new data file will always show the full YTD results anyway (and I don't like to store data in my database).
I have a query that counts the number of fields in the raw data file and am wondering if there is a way to have access only run the number of queries required based on the number of fields. i.e. if 11 fields then run queries 1 thru 5, if 14 run 1 thru 6 etc.

I have a table similar to the following:
PatientID | LabID | LabDate | Result
001 | 55 | 01jan14 | 9.5
001 | 55 | 01feb14 | 10.0
001 | 55 | 01mar14 | 8.7
001 | 66 | 30jan14 | 11.2
001 | 66 | 30feb14 | 15.4
001 | 66 | 30mar14 | 13.0
002 | 55 | 01jan14 | 12.1
002 | 55 | 01feb14 | 9.9
002 | 55 | 01mar14 | 14.5
002 | 66 | 30jan14 | 16.5
002 | 66 | 30feb14 | 13.0
002 | 66 | 30mar14 | 10.0
Using a single-step Access query, I need to retrieve, for each PatientID, the most recent LabDate and Result *of a given LabID*. Thus, from the example dataset above, the desired output for LabID 55 is:
PatientID | LabID | LabDate | Result
001 | 55 | 01mar14 | 8.7
002 | 55 | 01mar14 | 14.5
I have searched this forum and others, but have not found an answer that I can directly tanslate to my situation. I have successfully written queries (with included subqueries) that retrieve the most recent of all the Labs, but have failed at obtaining a result dataset that contains only the records within a specified LabID.
For example, the query below fails because whenever the most recent of *all* the LabDates is not the same as the most recent of *the LabDates with a LabID=55*, the correct record is not included in the results. In the example dataset above, 0 records are returned.
SELECT a.PatientID, a.LabID, a.LabDate, a.Result
FROM Labs AS a
INNER JOIN (SELECT PatientID, MAX(LabDate) AS MaxLabDate FROM Labs GROUP BY PatientID) AS b
ON (a.PatientID = b.PatientID) AND (a.LabDate = b.MaxLabDate)
WHERE (((a.LabID)=55));

I currently have a form to manage inventory. On the left side of the form, I have a list box that shows all of the items in the database and finds the record on the form based on the selection.
I would like to have toggle boxes or something underneath the list box that when clicked will sort the box by vendor and item and another that when clicked will sort the list by part number and then select the record on the form based on the selection at that time.
I have no idea how to accomplish this...can anyone help?

For my study on academic research I need to match patents that refer to academic research as prior work with the actual prior work.
I have two tables (see attached images below).
One regarding AcademicPublications (AP), which is neatly organized with title, year, journal, volume, pages, first author, etc... 480,000 rows
One regarding Patentswhere all this information is hidden within one field, in the most messy way possible... for instance, a field could have:
Quote:
Sugita et al, "Nonsurgical Implantation of a Vascular Ring Prosthesis Using Thermal Shape Memory Ti/Ni Alloy (Nitionl Wire)," Trans. Amer. Soc. Artif. Intern. Organs, vol. 23, pp. 30-34.
or
Quote:
Willingham et al., Cell 13, 501-507 (1978).
Or many other ways.
I want to create a new table that is set up like this:
Patents.PatentNumber | AP.ID | Patents.Reference | AP.Title | AP.Year | AP.Volume | AP.PageStart
The question is: How do I match different fields from one table on one field of another and make it return another field (the ID)? Some references are too horrible to match, but I need as many as I can get.
I can imagine two queries would give me the bulk:
A match in [Title] AND [Year]
A match on ([SourceTitle] OR [AbbreviatedSourceTitle] ) AND [Volume] AND [Year] AND [PageStart]
I understand that I have to make use of the Like "*"&[value]&"*", but how do I make it return the matching ID?

I have a production database in which orders are checked for shortages at different levels of production in which :
1 raw product can be fetched in 2 or more final products, Shortages are checked as per priority.
In this database i have tables named "finalproductlist" and "rawproductslist" in which products are connected in one to many (see table "productmapping"). For E.g. 1 product in raw table can be fetched into 2 or more final products.
I have stocks query on both levels with which shortage is checked.
I want to create the order shortage query which gives the shortage at both levels prioritywise.

I have recently set up a button that exports multiple queries to one Excel file, using TransferSpreadsheet code. This works great and saves a lot of time, the only thing is on many of the queries I have a date range set, so you have to enter a date range to get the results.
Is there away that once I press the button I enter the date range once and than it exports the rest of the data based on this range, rather than entering the same dates multiple times.
