When this query runs I want the popup parameter to open and ask for an ChID number. User enters that number and it deletes that record. I cant figure out what to enter on the criteria line. I have [ChID] and that wipes all records. I tried = [ChID] and it does not run.
View RepliesI am wondering if there is a quicker way to export a query to excel then have the data in that query removed from the original table. (effectively cutting the data from the table and exporting to excel)
I understand that this can be done by exporting the query to excel then running the same query as a delete query to remove the data but I just wondered if this is the most efficient way.
I have experience of VB in excel but currently only use the basic macro builder in Access though if Access VB is more efficient I can easily learn.
Okay I have 2 tables and I used queries to filter and delete the info off those tables. Now I combined the 2 tables by using a query which is query 1. What I found was a few cells that are blank cells.
I tried creating another query based on query 1 from the 2 tables to try and delete it but it won't work. I tried everything and nothing seems to work. I can't filter the data since I am creating another query called query 3 to display the final results.
I have a delete query where i want to delete only the row that contains the max value of the IDnum field from the table STM, where it links two tables on CellTell
I currently have this:
DELETE DISTINCTROW STM.*, STM.IDNum
FROM dpl_00c_tbl_StmCellDups
INNER JOIN STM ON dpl_00c_tbl_StmCellDups.STM_CellTel = STM.CellTel
WHERE (((STM.IDNum)=(select max(IDNum) from `STM`)));
It doesn't want to throw out any values when i run it, or view it.
I have a Unmatched query that displays what I need but I want to clean up my database and remove them but its not letting me. See sql below.
Code:
DELETE Warranty
FROM Warranty LEFT JOIN Serials_Repair ON Warranty.[Serial] = Serials_Repair.[Serials_Repair]
WHERE (((Serials_Repair.Serials_Repair) Is Null));
I changed "Delete" it was "Select" thinking that would work but it does not.
Access 2010
I created 3 find unmatched queries from the query wizard. The first one works great. I can delete a record in the query and it deletes the record in the main table.
The second one allows me to delete a record and gives me the pop up box that says " you are about to delete 1 record". I click yes, but when I check the table or reopen the query the same record reappears.
The third query does not even give me the option to delete.
I can create a regular select query and delete the records form 2nd and 3rd but not from the queries made from the unmatched wizard.
I am using the same fields in all 3 queries.
I do not have enforce referential integrity or the other 2 options checked in the relationship properties. (not sure if this makes a difference.)
I even tried to redo the unmatched queries but I get the same result for all 3.
I want to be able to delete the records in the other 2 queries.
I am trying to create a query to find duplicates and delete the duplicates. The result will eventually be used in another query (append query) to update a table.I have a table with 4 columns lets say for simplicity they are A, B, C, D
I want my query to find duplicates within B and deleting them. The catch is before deleting them I need to look into column A to ebsure they are actually duplicates. Example below
Example
A B
John Doe Tires
John Doe Wipers
Allison Doe Tires
Allison Doe Tires
As you can see from the above Tires is a duplicate and need to be deleted.
A B
John Doe Tires

I have two linked tables (Unique_ID)
Table1 has a record of unique tasks.
Table2 has a list of people to do those tasks
They are linked by a Unique_ID (one to many - Table1 to Table2).Sometimes there can be an instance where there are Unique_ID's in Table2 but the reference Unique_ID is missing from Table1.
I have a select query that can show me these like so.
table2 table1
Unique_ID Unique_ID
Like * Not Like *
I can open the query and simply delete the records fine however i wish to automate this.What I want to do is delete the unrefenced Unique_ID's from table2.I have tried to just convert this select query into a delete query but it asks me which table I wish to delete and I cannot see where to enter this information.
How to DELETE rows in one table that have a field value that matches a field value from another table? Tried these but sytax errors:
DELETE * FROM tmpBankDebitsMinusJE
WHERE tmpBankDebitsMinusJE.ConcatenateBankDebits IN
(SELECT tmpJournalEntryChangeOrders.Concatenate);
DELETE FROM tmpBankDebitsMinusJE
WHERE ConcatenateBankDebits IN
(SELECT Concatenate IN tmpJournalEntryChangeOrders);
I have a Query which can pull data to a form, then the form will evaluate the ID, after saving/recording, I need to delete the evaluated data on the query.
My problem is how can i delete it? There is Table1 for outputing the evaluation, Query1 where the evaluation can get the Data.
Process Flow:
> Form pulls data from Query1
> Evaluation was saved on Table1
> Evaluated ID should also be removed on Query1
I have a query, and when I execute it, the correct data set is returned. However one field shows "DELETE" as the value for all records.
when I ran it on the SQL server management studio as a test it ran fine. End user does not have access to the tables, so I created a small MS Access application. When I ran the query in MS Access, then connected table dbo_DocRef > Notes shows a value of DELETED.
What am I missing?
I am trying to delete a record in tblinclude where record from tblexclude are equal to clientid and codeid
Here is the sql
DELETE tblinclude.ClientID
FROM tblexclude INNER JOIN tblinclude ON (tblexclude.ClientID = tblinclude.ClientID) AND (tblexclude.CodeID = tblinclude.CodeID)
WHERE (((tblinclude.ClientID)=1));
I get the error Specify the table containing the records you want to delete. I've searched for this but I am just not getting it today.
I use the following code to delete from a table all records except those meeting the WHERE criteria:
Code:
DELETE tblABC.*, tblABC.SubjectID
FROM tblABC
WHERE (((tblABC.SubjectID)<>99 And (tblABC.SubjectID)<>432));
I'd like to run this exact same query, but on many other tables, all of which are stored in tblTablesToClean (TableID, TableName).
Any good way to have Access loop through the list of tables in tblTablesToClean, each time passing the name of the table into the DELETE code and running the code, until all tables have been processed?
I am creating a database where the records of individual students are to be moved to different table depending on where they are in the graduation process. In order to do this, the secretary will enter the student in the "90 Hr Request" table (think of it as the first step), and move them down the line of tables (4 in total) until the final "Completed" table. Each table in the progression has more and more fields. However, a student (with their ID number as the primary key) can only be in one table at a time.
I understand this does not sound like a traditional database, as the data is not normalized. However, this is being used more as a filing system than anything else. Their data is primarily paper based (for legality reasons), but wishes to keep it organized in a database so they can run queries and print reports.
Currently, I am creating a macro that will run specific queries (in an order). I have made an append query that will move the records over, then I used a update (to null) and delete query combo to delete the old individual record. I made the delete + update query work by using a selected criteria.
How to make the append query move only one student's record at a time.
I have a database that needs data to be reentered every school term, at the moment i am having to delete selected data fields manually. im looking to create a query so that the data is deleted by running it. The data would be returned to a blank field. I have tried using a delete query but it is asking for the selected table, even though a selected table exists. Using the update query i am faced with updating the query to a typed word however i just want it blank.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a Table1 served by Form1..It is a list of: UnqID, process, quantity, totaltime(in seconds).I want to click on a record to bring up a filtered Form2 with the chosen record on it.What I want to be able to do is to now split the quantity (and the time) and put these new records back into Table1 and delete the original record
EG
ID1,10,write a report,2400
I want to delete this and replace it with two (or three/four etc) replacements, but still adding up to 10 quantity and 2400 seconds so that the new data could be:
ID2,5,write a report,1200
ID3,5,write a report,1200
My initial thoughts are to create a holding table to:Append filtered data on Form2 to a holding Table1hld (i don't know how to do this) delete data in Table1.then enter the new quantities into a holding Table2 (that I will input myself) and then append (through a series of queries back into Table1).The first problem is how to append (and subsequently delete) the filtered record from Form2 to Table1hld.
I have a query based on two tables, joined on one field (this field is the primary key in Table A. Table B doesn't have a primary key). When working inside this query, it gives me the option to delete records. However, when I try, the row disappears from the query but then if I save and close and either re-open table A or the resulting query, that record is back. It doesn't actually delete. If I go to table A directly and delete it, it's gone for good.
How can I make it so that when I delete the record inside the query it actually deletes? And if that's not an option, can I make it so that it doesn't seem like I can delete records inside the query so that people don't make the mistake?
I have two simple tables. I want to delete the records from Table1 that are on Table2. I've created a select query that gives me what I want but when I change to a delete query, I get this message: "Unable to delete from specified tables"
I think my problem has something to do with security but I can't figure out what to change.
I have two queries, both delete from the same table and both have joins..This one works:
Code:
DELETE RequestCheck.*
FROM(
SELECT TOP 3 PayRequest.RequestID, PayRequest.GBPAmount, PayRequest.Currency, PayRequest.RequestDate
FROM PayRequest
WHERE (((PayRequest.Currency)="EUR Euro") AND ((PayRequest.RequestDate)>#11/16/2014#))
ORDER BY PayRequest.GBPAmount
) AS TOP3 INNER JOIN RequestCheck ON TOP3.RequestID = RequestCheck.RequestID
WHERE (((RequestCheck.CheckID)=8));
This one does not:
Code:
DELETE RequestCheck.*
FROM 300_tblDeleteRequestCheck INNER JOIN RequestCheck ON [300_tblDeleteRequestCheck].RCID = RequestCheck.RCID;

I Have done a search but have not found an answer
I ran a delete query and specied fields to be deleted from certain records.
Instead of deleting the field it trys to delete the entire record.
Any ideas how i can get it to just delete fields and not the entire record.?
Is it possible to delete records in a table if it has no matching records in another related table by using a delete querie. I can find plenty of info on deleting matched records but nothing on unmatched.

Hey guys, I got two questions about delete queries,
Question 1: Is it possible to use the delete query to delete records from two different tables? What I'm looking at is deleting a customer from a customer list, and customer records from a distribution list, which are in two different tables. If not, is there an alternative way to accomplish this....ie write two queries but use macros somehow?
Question 2: I would like to add an "Are you sure?" message-box type feature into the delete query so that the user has the ability to think and back out if neccessary. Any suggestions for accomplishing that?
Thanks,
Chris
Im pretty new to database structure, terms and whatnots. Im developing a database for my organization solely based off of my limited knowledge of coding structures and languages. The question may seem a little novice, and just wanted to preface it with that 8)
Delete Queries seem to delete records based off of certain criteria. The question is this: Is there any way to use a delete query to delete a COLUMN in an entire table rather than a record? I dont even need criteria to be there, im basically importing information from an excel spreadsheet that is a common format for our organization and trying to remove info that isnt pertinent to our portion of the business. So basically theres a few columns that really just dont make a difference to us.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you!
I got these two append and delete queries in my database that i want to run on startup. I was wondering if there is a way to not have the msg that pops up to ask if you are sure you want to append/delete 0 record to table if there isn't any record that matches the condition set. I'm sure there is a way because if there isn't any record that matches the condition set in the queries then i don't want to have to click "No" everytime the database starts.
thanks,
Vincent
