Queries :: Loop To Create New Tables With Unique Field Values

Sep 20, 2013

I have a table - (Table A) that has 2 fields X and Y. I would like to write a query or script to make two new tables based on the unique values found in field X. In other words, all data where field X = 1 would be written to a new table called "1" and all data wehre field X =2 would be written to a new table called "2".I would like this done automatically.

Table A
Field X Field Y
1 a
1 b
1 c
1 d
2 a
2 b
2 c

Queries :: Merge Duplicate Values With Unique ID

Feb 28, 2014

I have a query with over 85,000 lines of data where each row has a unique id but the unique id appears multiple times within the table. For example, there is a unique numeric id tide to various types of pets across four columns. So the id number 1 could appear in four different rows each with different pets. See the first attachment "Original Table"

I want to be able to create a table that has one for for each unique id with all of the corresponding pet data. See the attached "Desired Table".

Queries :: Count Unique Values Without GROUP BY

Sep 15, 2013

I am currently using the below code to query values that have a unique "OverrideDescription" and where by the "Upload Date" is always the latest.

SELECT t1.*
FROM [DaisyServiceRates-Amended] AS t1 LEFT JOIN [DaisyServiceRates-Amended] AS t2 ON (t1.OverrideDescription = t2.OverrideDescription) AND (t1.[Upload Date] < t2.[Upload Date])
WHERE t2.OverrideDescription IS NULL;

However I also need to be able to do a unique count of the [OverrideDescription] field.

I have found methods whereby I can do use, but they all use a GROUP BY function, the issue being that when I use this method it prevents be from updating the values saying "recordset not updateable".

Any method that does not use the GROUP function. I did also try preforming the COUNT on a separate table and doing as JOIN, but this also prevented updates to the date.

Queries :: Manifest - Query A List And Then Show Only Unique Values

Oct 1, 2013

One Manifest can have many line items. One line item can only have 1 designation. Each manifest may have many line item with same designations.

For example:
Manifest #0001
Line Item 1: N
Line Item 2: H
Line Item 3: U
Line Item 4: N
Line Item 5: P
Line Item 6: H

Table set-up
CurrentCY
CurrentCYIDPK
WasteCategoryIDFK
LineItemInformation [Line Item 1, Line Item 2, etc]
ManifestDataIDFK

ManifestData
ManifestDataIDPK
ManifestNumber [0001]

WasteCategory
WasteCategoryIDPK
WasteCategory [H, N, U, etc]

I'd like to query the line items for each manifest so the end result has the manifest number (Manifest #0001) in a field and the designations (N, H, P, U) in fields on a report.

Modules & VBA :: Create Unique Reference Number Based On Field Values For Record

Jun 18, 2015

I want Access to automatically generate a reference number for a record based on the values in on two other fields for a given record using a form.

The first field is called Operation Number.

The second is Bag Number.

The reference number needs to be in this format: 19C.3.1

Where 19C is the Operation Number, 3 is the bag number, and 1 is automatically generated. Additionally I need the last number --the automatically generated one--to go back to 1 if with each new bag number.

This is kind of like library catalog numbers. Not sure how to do this.

General :: Creating Unique Ordered Number Field With Auto Shifting Values

May 31, 2013

I'm creating a database using existing data from an excel file full of contact details. What I need to add is a queue type system where each contact in the database has a "Place in Queue" number which is unique obviously.

Lets say Alan is number 1, Bob is 2 and Chris is 3. They have these corresponding numbers in the queue field for their entries.

Now what I need to have, through use of a form, is a way of changing Chris from number 3 in the queue to number 1 and thus have Alan automatically shift down to number 2 and Bob to 3.

Modules & VBA :: Get Number Of Unique Values Without Separating Values That Belong To Same Block?

Dec 5, 2014

I have the following dataset in a table called NR_PVO_120. How do i pick out a number (which can change but let's say, 6) of UNIQUE OtherIDs without excluding any OtherIDs under any fax numbers?

So, if you pick OtherID from Row7 you then also must pick OtherIDs from rows 8 and 9 because they have the same fax number. Basically, once you pick an OtherID you're then obligated to pick all OtherIDs that have the same fax number as the one you picked.

If the number requested (6 for this example) isn't possible then "the closest number possible but not exceeding" would be the rule.

For example, if you take OtherIDs from rows 1-10 you will get 6 unique OtherIDs but row 10 shares a fax with rows 11 and 12. You either need to take all 3 (but that will raise the unique count to 8, which isn't acceptable) or skip this OtherID and find one with a fax that has no other OtherIDs and that isn't on the result set already. My result of 6 UNIQUE OtherIDs will need to contain ALL OtherIDs under any fax the existing OtherIDs are connected to.

So one solution is to take rows 1-6, 26. Another is to take rows 1-4,10-14.

There will be many possibilities (the real dataset has tens of thousands of rows and the number of people requested will be around 10K), as long all OtherIDs connected to all faxes on the result set are part of the requested number (6 in this case) any combination would do.

A few notes.

1.Getting as close as possible to the requested number is a requirement.

2.Some OtherIDs will have a blank fax, they should only be included as a last resort (not enough OtherIDs for the requested number).

my table (NR_PVO_120)
Row OtherID Fax
1 11098554 2063504752
2 56200936 2080906666
3 11098554 7182160901
4 25138850 7182160901
5 56148974 7182232046
6 56530104 7182234134

[code]....

A few sample outputs

one solution is taking rows 1-6 and 26.

OtherID
11098554
56200936
25138850
56148974
56530104
56148975

Another solution is taking rows 1-4 and 10-14.

OtherID
11098554
56200936
25138850
56024315
56115247
56148974

This is for a fax campaign, we need to make sure no fax number is faxed twice, that all people connected to that fax number are contacted under one fax sent.

Queries :: Prevent Duplicates With Unique Field Of Joined Fields

Nov 2, 2014

I have a client database that has recently had multiple duplicate entries. I need to reduce or negate this erroneous activity. I have a client table where I record amongst others, the following;

key
[christian_name]
[family_name]
[dob]
......

I believe that to prevent duplicate entrie via form I have created an additional field called "unique" given it as a unique index which I want to have populated with the joined fields first_name & last_name & dob (IE johndoe01/01/90), and then as user enters a new client it wont allow a duplicate.

However I need to fill all the existing customers (3600+) with the relevant joined existing data. If I create an expression I can cajoin the fields in a select query but when I try to make an update query the same syntax comes up with empty fields.

select query sql that worked to show field ...

SELECT divers.christian_name, divers.family_name, divers.dob, [christian_name] & [family_name] & [dob] AS Expr1
FROM divers;

update query that was empty ..

UPDATE divers SET divers.[unique] = [christian_name] & [family_name] & [dob];

Unique Values

Mar 1, 2007

I have a query that has an Item, ItemPrice, Allocation, and DatePurchased ordered by DatePurchased with only unique values.

I'm using it for a PO Database, when entering items purchased, I have the Item field populated with a items previously purchased, when the item is selected the Unit Price and Allocation Fields are autofilled in with the most recent values from the PO details table.

My problem is if I purchase 10 of the same Items on 10 different dates then the combo box will show 10 of the same Items, because they are not unique values because of the DatePurchased.

What I want is a query to show one unique Item entry with the most recent Purchase Price. I can get a list of unique Items, by only making a query of those and showing only unique values, but as soon as the date is introduced it no longer works, for obvious reasons.

Any help appreciated,
JOe K.

Unique Values ??

Jan 15, 2008

I have a database to track client activity per session.
Each client has a unique client number but multiple activities.
Therefore, if I have 20 clients in the database and each has 3 activities, I have 60 client numbers, 3 *20 = 60. ( Duplicated)
My elementary problem is how do I display the client activity unduplicated so that my query returns only 1 unique client number per session.
I tried the unique records/values in the property box but still.....
Thanks for your help.

Queries :: Find A Way For Access To Find Unique Dates And Unique Names?

Aug 1, 2014

I have been working on a simple data base for some time now (beginner level) and am still trying to improve it. I would like to do something but before that I would like to have your opinion to know if it is even possible?I have a query QryMainReport:

Start Date/Time
End Date/Time
Employee

At the moment this is what the format of my report looks like (I removed other unnecessary fields):

StartTime----------EndTime---------------Employee
12/06/2014 01:00--12/06/2014 03:00------John Smith
12/06/2014 04:00--12/06/2014 06:00------Jane Doe
13/06/2014 02:00--13/06/2014 05:00------John Smith
13/06/2014 08:00--13/06/2014 08:00------Jane Doe

I would like to do as a report. (Dates would always be from Sunday to Saturday). I am not sure it is possible to do that. I suppose first it would mean:I would have to do a query to separate the times from the dates?I would have to find a way for Access to find the unique dates and unique names?Does it mean I have to use cross tab queries?

About Unique Values In Tables!!!

Oct 4, 2006

Hi,
I have a situation and i do not know how to handle it.
I am developing an application for a lawyer. In the data base i have the following tables: Files, the people table (that are involved in a lawsuit), and other tables. The problem is the following: in the people table, beside the primary key i have another unique element that is social security number.
In the files table beside the primary key another unique element exists: the number and date of the file (File 1 from 15.02.2006). A lawsuit file can have more law terms: today it has one law term and maybe next week another law term so i must have the same file many times in the table with the same code and another date, but i cannot add the same file many times in the data base because a file has data about one person and the social security number of the person is unique.

If anyone can offer me a solution it would be good.
Thank you!

Unique Values To ComboBox

Oct 25, 2006

Hi guys,

I've tried searching all the threads for an answer to my problem and I can't seem to find it....

Ok I know this should be simple...

I know to use Distinct and DistinctRow to only show unique records in a combobox but all I want to do is that once a selection is chosen in the combobox to add a record to a subform, it can't be selected again.

I know in some cases you do, e.g. items on an invoice sometimes need to be entered more than once, but I'm listing Skills for Employees and I only want a user to enter a Skill once per Employee (although Employees can have many Skills, I just don't want a User to accidentally put the same Skill in twice or more per Employee...)...

What's the best optimized way of achieving this?

Sorry for my newbiness.

Extract Unique Values

Feb 17, 2005

I have the following SQL definition:

SELECT DISTINCT tblFile_Management_Received.Claim_Number, tblFile_Management_Received.Date_Checked_In, tblFile_Management_Received.Checked_In_By, tblFile_Management_Received.Copy_or_Original
FROM tblFile_Management_Received;

The results would show as:

ClaimNumber Date Checked In Checked In By Original or Copy
111111111 2/16/2005 8:34:24 AM XXXX Yes
111111111 2/16/2005 1:23:19 PM XXXX Yes
222222222 2/16/2005 8:34:52 AM XXXX Yes
222222222 2/16/2005 1:24:49 PM XXXX Yes

I am trying to use "Distinct" to show the following records when the query is ran (the desired results would be each unique claim number based on the earliest check in date):

ClaimNumber Date Checked In Checked In By Original or Copy
111111111 2/16/2005 8:34:24 AM XXXX Yes
222222222 2/16/2005 8:34:52 AM XXXX Yes

Can anyone help me with this??

How To Sum Up Various Choices With Unique Values

Jul 29, 2015

I would like to sum up choices made by a user. I'm not sure whether I should create a new table and a couple of fields (not including primary key) with Fruit & Fruit Value.

Where: Apple (Y or N)=4 or 0, Oranges (Y/N)=3/0, Bananas (Y/N)=2/0, etc. As the user chooses the fruit, the value rises.

For example, if the user selected Yes for APPLE and ORANGES the sum is 7-- or if the user selected ORANGES and BANANAS the sum is 5, etc.

Is it possible?

Can A Query Sort For Unique Values?

Nov 29, 2005

I don't know if I'm going about this problem correctly. In a nutshell:

I have a table which contains a number of fields, only a two of which are important for this task, as indicated below.

| ID | Type |

Where ID is an alpha-numeric identifier (say a store number), and there are three potential types, plus Null values. For this, we'll assume the three types are Fruit, Vegetable, and Grain (plus Null).

An example dataset might look like:

0-4 Vegetable
1-2
0-1 Grain
1-2 Fruit
0-4 Vegetable
1-2 Vegetable
0-1
0-2 Fruit
0-4 Grain
1-2 Fruit
0-4
0-1 Vegetable
0-3 Fruit


If I want to know how many stores have Vegetable, I could put "Vegetable" as the criteria in the query and set UniqueValues to Yes. Then I would get three unique values, one for each Vegetable existing at a unique store.

But, what if I want to know at which stores Fruit exists and Vegetable DOES NOT. Is there a way within Access to find all the records with "Fruit" as the criteria and then eliminate those with ID numbers matching the dataset with "Vegetable" as the criteria?

In other words, if I do my "Vegetable" criteria I end up with the resulting dataset:

0-4 Vegetable
1-2 Vegetable
0-1 Vegetable

If I then use "Fruit" as my criteria, I get the following dataset:

1-2 Fruit
0-2 Fruit
0-3 Fruit

Since Store 1-2 has Vegetable, I want to eliminate it from the list so that my resultant list is:

0-2 Fruit
0-3 Fruit

Is that possible?
Sorry for the long bizarre example, but I thought it the easiest way to make the situation clear. I'd really appreciate any suggestions anyone has on dealing with this situation!!
Thanks

Unique Records/Values Problem!!

Jan 13, 2006

Here's my situation...

I'm making a query that uses information on company members from a database. The most important data field is the MemberID. Many members are listed in the table more than once because different records are put in when they have more than one contact person or health plan, etc.... However, right now I am trying to have the query make a table that produces only one record for each company so I can get a total number of companies. Therefore, I dont want the query to produce records with duplicates of the MemberID. My problem is that by setting Unique Values to 'Yes' doesn't work because if a different field in the record is different, it makes the record unique. I can't figure out a way to make it so only one field is considered for unique values. The funny thing is that it is simple to do this in Excel, you just gotta go to advanced filters. Does anybody know how to do this in Access?? Thanks.

Filtering Semi Unique Values

May 11, 2007

Hey guys, I'm relatively new to Access and I need some help building a query. So I work with a website that handles credit card transactions, and we keep a log of activity ie. NameOnCard, Date, Status. About once a month or so, I do an audit to make sure that all the attempted transactions are successful. Sometimes the server needs to restart, or the users computer has a problem, etc. Typically, someone who's had a failed attempt will have a successful attempt minutes or seconds later, so the NameOnCard is exactly the same, but the Date and Status are different. Right now I've created a query that look for failed attempts and one that looks for successful attempts, but what i want is one that returns only people with failed attempts that don't also have a successful attempt. Everything I've thought should work hasn't. Filtering for unique values doesn't help, because each row is slightly different, and the NameOnCard isn't the primary key. I recently tried this as a column with this in the field value:Success: IIf([Online Gift Errors]![NameOnCard]=[Online Gift Successes]![NameOnCard],"Success","Failure")(NOTE:Online Gift Errors and Online Gift Successes are queries, not tables)But when I try to run the query it thinks [Online Gift Errors]![NameOnCard] is a parametric value and asks for an input. What can I do? Should I be trying something else entirely?
