Queries :: Remove Duplicates - If 2 Fields Are Equal

Nov 19, 2013

I have a large table with many fields and many rows. There is no primary key. I'll call one field ParentPN, and another field ChildPN. There are many other fields as well. I want to identify all rows where BOTH the ParentPN and ChildPN occur more than once. I know how to create a query to identify duplicates of ONE field in the table, but not two. I can solve this with VBA: I will read the two fields of interest in the first row, then compare both values with every other row. If it finds another row with BOTH ParentPN and ChildPN identical with the first, that's a "hit". Then, repeat with all the other rows. I could find ways to make this run faster, but I was wondering if there are any build in functions to accomplish this. I looked at the Find Duplicates query builder, and all I see is I can select ONE field to search for dupes, not two.

Queries :: Find Duplicates From 2 Tables And Remove From 1 Table

Jun 29, 2014

I have a report with 2 access tables (1 Master table and another a daily feed table)

The Master table keeps a log of all incoming records. (once append it to this table, should not show in future reporting)

The Daily feed information within the last 48 hours. (uploaded from an excel report into access temporary table)

When the daily feed table gets completed, I append the records and updated them into the Master to avoid duplication.

When I upload the daily feed table and I match it against the Master table to find duplicates, how can I delete the duplicates from the Daily Feed table?

This is my code to find duplicates:

SELECT CMPreport.ID, CMPreport.MbrName, tblMaster.ID
FROM CMPreport LEFT JOIN tblMaster ON CMPreport.ID = tblMaster.ID
WHERE (((tblMaster.ID) Is Not Null));

Queries :: Adding Sequential Numbers To Generate A Unique Reference Number

Oct 5, 2013

Basically what I have is a database for tracking/logging parcels that arrive to the office. I want to be able to generate a reference number based on the date of arrival: i.e. the reference number should be ddmmyy### where ### is a sequential number. I know that I could just use the primary key's autonumber, for the sequential number but if I do this then the sequence will not restart at 1 on each date and because we receive a lot of parcels the reference number will grow to be too big to print out on the collection slips in just a few months.

two tables (one with the date and staff on duty that day and the other with the parcel's info') with a one to many relationship

I also have a query (Named: FullLog) that picks up the following data from the tables:

Name - Description - Size - TrackingInfo' - Staff - DateReceived - Count

The field named Count is a DCount function that I used to find out the number of times each date is repeated. This is the Expression that I used:

Count: DCount("*","FullLog","DateReceived = " & [DateReceived]) [Note that DateReceived is first converted into a string using CStr()]

This is as far as I have been able to get, I have been looking for weeks for a solution to this problem but I have yet to find one. I don't even know if the DCount function is the correct way of doing it, I did read somewhere that this produces a very slow query.

Effectively what I want to be able to get is something of that resembles the following

DateReceived - ReferenceNo

051013 051013001
051013 051013002
051013 051013003
061013 061013001
061013 061013002
071013 071013001
071013 071013002
071013 071013003
071013 071013004
071013 071013005
081013 081013001
081013 081013002
091013 091013001
101013 101013001

Number Duplicates With Calculated Field In Query

Nov 20, 2011

I'm trying to make a calculated field in query that will number duplicates, not count them.

For example, I have a table with the following:

Joe
Joe
Joe
Mary
Mary
Henry
Dave
Dave
Dave
Dave

I want the query to display:

Joe #1
Joe #2
Joe #3

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.

Queries :: Adding New Records To Table - Random Number No Duplicates

Jul 31, 2013

I have a form which allows the user to add new records to a table. After the user had entered all the information into the form, they click a command button to add the record. In addition to adding the new record, my command button runs an query which is supposed to generate a random number between 1 & 1,000,000,000 and update the record ID field with that number.

Here is the formula I have been using in the "update To" now of my query: Int((1000000000-1+1)*Rnd()+1)

My problem is that I keep getting duplicates. You would think that the chances of getting a duplicate number would be pretty small with this large of a range, but I get a duplicate almost every time.

I have tried indexing (No duplicates) the field in the table, but that did not work. When my query generated a duplicate number, the record was just not added to the table.

I also tried a two step approach:
1-Make a table of all in use record ID numbers from my table (tblIdNo)
2-Update new record with a random number that is not in tblIdNo

This was a no-go too

How to build an update query that will update each new record added to the table with a random number between 1 & 1,000,000,000 without any duplicates? This seems like it should be so simple, and I am starting to get really frustrated.

I would prefer to accomplish this through a query/queries (if possible) rather than with 100 lines of code. This database is not for me, it's for another group, and the individuals in this group are totally freaked out by code.

What Is The Best Way To Remove Duplicates

Apr 12, 2007

I have a query linked to a main frame database. One of the fields is [significance] and gets a number 1-20. Usually when this data is entered, it gets multiple significance numbers. This causes my query to return separate records for each significance number. For example if case number 123 is given significance codes 1, 5 and 12, then my query returns 3 records.

I need a query that will show all records one time that have a significance code other than 12. This would be easy if there were not duplicate entries for the same case number because I could simply say "Not 12". So in the example above, my query returns 2 records showing significance codes 1 and 5. But I don't want to see the record for case number 123 because it also has a 12 significance code.

So what is the best way to handle this?

I appreciate the help.

Cannot Remove Duplicates Using Primary Key

Mar 27, 2006

Hi all, total newb here with a question i can't find answered anywhere. (you are my only hope) This database contains over 70k records and is a collection of user registrations over the years. Heres the issue.

After running the find duplicates query and get my list (over 8000 dupes) i get a sample like below. I cannot now run the append query as every other site or article says to. I can't set the primary key to surname because there are so many records that have the same last name but diff. first name. I need it to remove the dupes based on the EditDate, keeping the newest record.

List before dedupe:eek:
IDTag..................Surname......First......... ......EditDate
37659362.............Adams.........Mary........... ...2005.10.21
57506..................Adams.........Mary......... .....2005.04.25
37661858.............Adams.........Nichole........ ...2005.06.23

37657399.............Adams.........Rudo........... ...2006.02.15
54640..................Adams.........Rudo......... .....2005.02.08

List after dedupe:D

Any suggestions?

Remove Duplicates From Query/form

Nov 10, 2005

Hi,

I have the following set up on a form to pull together a query (by form) and resulting report:

Publication
Sector
Product
Region

Each publication can have multiple sectors/products/regions. The resulting query therefore duplicates the publication, for example:

Publication 1 Sector 1 Product 1 Region 1
Publication 1 sector 2 product 1 region 1
publication 1 sector 2 product 2 region 1

etc etc...

The report ONLY has publication on it, but as it is based upon the query utilising the 4 factors above, the resulting report is:
Pub 1
Pub 1
Pub 1
Pub 2
etc

I want the report to only list the publications once - i have tried "hide duplicates" from the form field properties, however this hides the text but leaves a big gap on the resulting report when generated where the duplicate would be if it were not hidden.

There must be a simpler way to acheive this than getting another query to create a table based on the first query which (the table) only includes the publication name, and is filtered to remove duplicates through a primary key...

Can anyone help!?

cheers
amx

Remove Duplicates From Four Different Fields/columns

Jul 31, 2007

Hi everyone,

I am working on a database to manage newsletter subscriptions. Each subscriber record has the option of having up to four email addresses registered to his/her name.

Is there a way to check for duplicate email addresses in the entire database? It would have to compare all values in all four fields of all records.

Any ideas on how to implement such a thing? I'm clueless...

Thanks!

Remove Duplicates With Conditional Criteria

Feb 27, 2014

I am trying to design a delete query that has an additional criteria needed.

I want to delete identical IDs in one column only if there are identical values in an adjacent column.

So for example, in the table below I want to delete the last row where the duplicate ID is "2700023" because the Code field has identical values, "LRAC". I do not want to delete the second row because the Code field is different for the row.

ID Code
2699974 BCC
2699974 SRAC

2700023 LRAC
2700023 LRAC

Combine Tables - Remove Duplicates And Add Fields

Sep 28, 2015

I have 4 or 5 tables. Most of the fields are exactly the name but they all have at least 1 to possibly 5 or six fields that are not in the other table. Additionally there are some duplicates within the individual tables as well as across tables.

i.e.

I have a

Student Table - with all the info on the student as well as a column called student that identifies them as such however it does not have the columns parent, donor, appeal, designation.....
Parent Table - with all the info on the student as well as a column called parent that identifies them as such however it does not have the columns student, donor, appeal, designation.....
Donor Table - with all the info on the student as well as a column called donor that identifies them as such however it does not have the columns student, parent, appeal, designation.....
Appeal Table - with all the info on the student as well as a column called appeal that identifies them as such however it does not have the columns student, parent, donor, designation.....

-A person can be within one of these tables more than once but with all the same information.
-A person can also fall into all of these parameters so they could be on every table with the same information in addition to the missing columns,=.

Question 1 : what is the best way to dedupe and delete the individual tables (they all have account numbers)
Question 2: I was thinking create a new table with all the columns available, however how do i dedupe across tables while populating the additional columns from each?

Update Related Records And Remove Duplicates

Mar 18, 2014

I have two tables, one is of departments, and one is of people (with a FK denoting what department this person is in). Now consider the fact that there are duplicates in the departments table, and I would like to remove these duplicates. However, the duplicates have related records (in the people table). So, before removing the duplicates, I must update the FKs in the table of people (this is the step I'm having trouble with).

Here's an example:

As you can see, the "Sales" department is there twice. And both have a related record. What I want to do is:
Update all DepartmentIDs (in tblPeople) to not point to duplicate records. In this example, that would be PersonID 2; Joe. His DepartmentID should update to "1" (as both "1" and "2" are "Sales").Delete the duplicates in tblDepartments (in this case, DepartmentID 2, "Sales").

The second step is no problem, it is only the first I am struggling with.

Also, the example posted here is just an example, the data I actually need to do this for is significantly more complex and there are many more records! In the attached database:

qry1: Simple query to find all duplicates (just used the query wizard)
qry2: Just the first row of each duplicated departments (duplicates that shouldn't be deleted). In the example above, this would be the "2", "Sales" row in the tblDepartments table.
qry3: Basically all qry1 rows that don't appear in qry2
qry4: All qry3 values, and their respective qry2 value.

This is what each of the (soon to be deleted) duplicate values' related records' DepartmentID should be updated to... There's no simpler way to phrase that, so using the example above, qry4 would return "2","1". This indicates that all people with a DepartmentID of "2" should be changed to "1" (so we can subsequently erase the department with the ID of 2.

This is as far as I have gotten. My next step is: Update all FKs in tblPeople based on qry4 (You can't set an update query's criteria to pull from another query, nor can you use the second query for the update value... or maybe you can, but I don't know about it).

Queries :: Remove ( - ) From Six Character Field

I have a field called "SC" with a value 13-251. I need to remove the "-" ending up with 13251. I tried using, as a starting point, Mid(String, Start, Length) with no success. I found this in another topic, and thought this might be close to what I was looking for. I sure did not know how to use it. When I selected the run command I got the following response:

Query must have at least one destination.

I tried a few different things like adding an extra field and different pointers but I doubt if I'm even standing in the batters box.

I have some data in an array that I need to normalize, remove duplicates, and import.

Original Table

Every record in the array has a person, all but a few have an address, most have a phone, and some have an email.

Person----- Address ----- Phone ----- Email

I want to group the data by HouseHold; which Address will serve to define for this import.

tblHouseHold
hhID
tblAddress
adrID, hhID, Address
tblPerson
prsID, hhID, Person
tblPhone
phnID, hhID, Phone
tblEmail
emlID, hhID, Email

I've been working on a procedure to step through the recordset and add the data one record at a time so I can get rid of the duplicates.

I've tried a few approaches, but this is where I'm at now.

Dim rsPhone As DAO.Recordset
Dim rsEmail As DAO.Recordset
Dim rsAddress As DAO.Recordset
