Queries :: Return One Value Or Another
Nov 20, 2013
I am looking up a product based on a unique code in tblProducts...I need to return one of two values
If the value of [Product type] = "multi" then return "multi"
else
If the value of [Product type] = "solo" then return the value of the non empty field in a range of fields
for example
tblProducts
PID (key) | PACKAGE TYPE | RED | YELLOW | BLUE
C13T0714010 | single | <empty>| yellow | <empty>
C13T0754010 | multi | red | yellow | blue
query
C13T0714010 returns "yellow'
C13T0754010 returns "multi'

Hi All,
I am wandering if it possible to check programatically whether a query returns a NULL result?
I am writing a program(VB) that involves an IFF statement where if there are records in the query it does a specific calculation & if there are no records returned in the query it does something else. Is this possible to achieve?
Thanks in advance:D
Cheers,
Karv

I am having an issue with a select query as I want one column to show the MAX and "00" value of the same Column. How do I go about having this task completed.
For example, the column has 00,01,02,03,04,05,*1,*2,*3,*4,*5 so I want a query that will return values of "00" and "05" on this example
00
05
Further example, this is what I have now
SELECT qryPR34_UNION.PR34001, qryPR34_UNION.PR34002, qryPR34_UNION.PR34003, qryPR34_UNION.PR34005,
qryPR34_UNION.PR34006, qryPR34_UNION.PR34007, qryPR34_UNION.PR34013, qryPR34_UNION.PR34014,
qryPR34_UNION.PR34098, qryPR34_UNION.PR34099, qryPR34_UNION.PR34100, qryPR34_UNION.PR34101
FROM qryPR34_UNION
WHERE (((qryPR34_UNION.PR34002)>"0") AND ((qryPR34_UNION.PR34003)>"0")
AND ((qryPR34_UNION.PR34006)<"0") AND ((qryPR34_UNION.PR34099)>0));
On the WHERE command, I need field PR34005 to give me the "00" value or the MAX value (on my example the result will have to give me records that have "00" and "05" value assigned on PR34005

I have a query which is a max sum of sales for several sales reps. (If that makes sense?)
Sales Rep, Total Sales
1, 100
2, 200
3, 500
4, 50
5, 150
I need to create a report which delivers the sales rep with the most sales and only that sales rep
e.g.
3,500

My issue surrounds retrieving the last (based on most recent date) set of records based on the most recent date. I have query, containing 2 tables as the sources for the query results. Currently, the query yields:
Field A Field B Field C
123456 AAAA 1/8/13
123456 BBBBI 1/8/13
123456 CCCC 1/8/13
123456 DDDD 1/8/13
123456 EEEEEE 3/10/13
123456 FFFFFF 3/10/13
123456 GGGG 3/10/13
123456 HHHH 3/28/13
123456 IIII 3/28/13
123456 JJJJ 3/28/13
The desired results would be to return all records with the last/max date, so yield:
123456 HHHH 3/28/13
123456 IIII 3/28/13
123456 JJJJ 3/28/13
I have tried the max & last functions, yet no success.

My setup is simple, it consists of two tables:
Employee (one)
Position (many)
So an employee in this database can have many different positions. The tables are linked using an EmployeeID field.
I want to construct a query that will list each employee and the last job entered for them in the database. Right now my query simply returns all the positions held (where there are more than one)?

I have two tables, TBL_Students and TBL_Email. Each of these tables have a field called Category, which allows multiple values from a list.
Is there a way to return records from TBL_Students where at least one value in TBL_Students!Category = at least one value in TBL_Email!Category.
E.g. If Student A has categories Maths, Physics and Computing;Student B has categories Maths, English and History;Student C has categories Physics and Geography
I would expect:
when TBL_Email!Category = Maths,Physics : Students A,B,C to be returned
when TBL_Email!Category = Maths : Students A,B to be returned
when TBL_Email!Category = Physics,Geography : Students A,C to be returned

Why this SQL will return only one query maximum?
DateLimiter: (SELECT Date_Retro_Fees_Rate FROM tblRetroFees AS Alias WHERE Date_Retro_Fees_Rate = (SELECT FIRST(Date_Retro_Fees_Rate) FROM tblRetroFees AS Alias2 WHERE Alias2.Date_Retro_Fees_Rate > tblRetroFees.Date_Retro_Fees_Rate AND Alias2.Id_Product = tblRetroFees.Id_Product) AND Alias.Id_Product = tblRetroFees.Id_Product)
A picture of the table is included.

I'm currently busy with something for my thesis as a student and I need to use Access for this. I'm not too new at access, I know how to do the very basics, let's say on the level of [if field contains *"text*", return x].
However I am struggling right now on something that shouldn't be too hard... I could do it immediately in Excel if there werent millions of rows..I have 2 tables. Table 1 regards a list of patent publication numbers (eg. WO2012024604A3) and additional data (publication date, title, etc), only the publication number matters for me now.
Code:
Table 1
publication numberWO2011085209A2
WO2011100754A1
WO2011112983A3
EP2342192A4
EP2342192A2
EP2205725A2
EP2205725A4
WO2012006540A3
WO2010008486A3
WO2012083136A1
Table 2 contains another list of patents that might cite/refer to Table 1's patents and additional data such as publication date.
Code:
Table 2
Publication Number Citing PatentsPublication Date Cited Refs - Patent
AU2001287375B2 1998-12-01 US5178882A | US4225581A | WO1998001161A2
AU2001288365B2 1990-02-24 US5967154A | WO1996039117A2 | US3699979A | US3943949A | US3838702A
AU2001288437B2 1999-03-09 US6087157A
[code]....
Now what I'd like to do is to create a third table which has for each of [Table 1].[Publication number]:
Column 2) A count of how many times the [Table 1].[Publication number] is found in [Table 2].[Cited Refs - Patent] ...
Column 3) In case a patent is cited more than once, return the [table 2].[publication Number Citing Patents] value of the earliest citing patent (so with the lowest Publication Date value).
For Column 2 I had expected it to be an easy count(iif( [Table 2].[Cited Refs - Patent] = "*"&[Table 1].[publication number]&"*")) command but apparently it's harder than that..

I would like to run a query which takes a code which contains a mixture of number and letter and returns all the number before the first letter. I was using the left function (=Left(([Codes],2)) but sometimes there is one number sometime two. The desired results are shown below;
7pol2try36 = 7
12cet9fre55 = 12
10yea3gtr77 = 10
Is this possible?

I want to return the price from my transactions table for the value '1' in the ID field in this transactions table.
That would be my first field in the query. The next one would be to do a sum of the sellprice field in my 'inventory' table where the buyingID matches a value of '1'.
how to accomplish this? So far, I'm not getting the query to return anything on the relationship.

I have created a table which holds transactions which can be both positive and negative. To this table i have added an extra column that shows the Absolute values which end results is as follows:
YYYY MM Currency Amount ABS
2013 10 EUR 50.000 50.000
2013 10 EUR -50.000 50.000
2013 10 EUR 49.995 49.995
2013 10 EUR -50.000 50.000
I need to create a table that shows those positive and negative transactions that can be netted of. I have been able to create a query with the following SQL code:
Code:
SELECT tbl_All_Absolute.[Posting Account], tbl_All_Absolute.Jnl, tbl_All_Absolute.CCYY,
tbl_All_Absolute.PP, tbl_All_Absolute.[Batch Num], tbl_All_Absolute.[Trans Num], tbl_All_Absolute.[Detail Reference],
tbl_All_Absolute.Amount, tbl_All_Absolute.RFPNum, tbl_All_Absolute.[Transaction Ref 1], tbl_All_Absolute.[Transaction Ref 2],
tbl_All_Absolute.[Transaction Ref 3], tbl_All_Absolute.[Transaction Ref 4], tbl_All_Absolute.Expr1
FROM tbl_All_Absolute
WHERE (((tbl_All_Absolute.Expr1) In (SELECT [Expr1] FROM [tbl_All_Absolute] As Tmp GROUP BY [Expr1] HAVING Count(*)>1 )));
Unfortunately (but obviously) the code will list 3x the 50,000 transactions and leaves out the 49.995.
My knowledge in Access is not that of an expert and i am wondering if there is a way for Access to only include the first 2 transactions (the +50.000 and the -50.000)?

I have an access table which has a key using letters (A,B,C,D...etc). Against each letter there is multiple rows against each letter. However for testing purposes I only need to get a single row against each key and I was wondering if there is a function I could use which would return only the first record of data for each key?

I am trying to reformat a string of text so that it is easier to read on a report.Based on the text, it seems like the best thing to do is to insert a carriage return before a date/time stamp.Here is the data (it's a conversation log)...it is three unique conversation log entries:
04/13/2014 8:21PM - all work and no play is no fun - Bob Smith04/13/2014 8:21PM - this is a test of the emergency broadcast system - Bob Smith04/13/2014 8:20PM - log testing - Bob Smith
If the carriage return is before the date/time string, then all entries would look the same. If the carriage return is after the date/time string.A user had suggested a child table to break out the data into separate records, but I'm sad to say that I never worked with child tables. Any way for replacing 'Date/time stamp' with 'carriage return' & 'Date/time stamp"

lets say I have a table with five tasks for five employees and each employee's data type is with 'Yes or No'.
I need to have a desired result to check
1.if all the employees have completed that particular task then the result should be 'YES'
2.if anyone employee has not completed that particular task then the result should be 'NO'
so, for each task there must be a check on all the five employee's data type.

I'm trying to make a query to return payroll data, but I'm not sure how to get Access to return 0 where data doesn't exist for a particular month.
For example, imagine this table:
Name MonthHours
John 1 160
John 2 160
Dave 1 160
Dave 2 160
Matt 1 160
How would I get this ouput:
Name MonthHours
John 1 160
John 2 160
Dave 1 160
Dave 2 160
Matt 1 160
Matt 2 0

I have 3 main tables: tblEmployees, tblJobs, and tblProcedures. (See attachment for relationship diagram and additional supplemental tables).A job can have multiple procedures and an employee can have multiple procedures too.
I need to write a query such that when searching by a specific job I can see all of the employees who are qualified for that job. This is done by seeing which employees have the procedures that belong to a job. But here's the catch: since a job can have multiple procedures, if an employee only has some of the procedures I don't want that particular employee to return as a search result. The employee must have ALL the procedures that belong to the selected job.
So for instance if I have:
tblJobs
Job1
tblEmployees
Emloyee1
Employee2
[code]...
If I search by Job1, I want only Employee2 to return as a result, NOT Employee1.I am at a lost for how to construct the SQL for something like that.

I'm trying to create a query to show me records for a given year. The issue I'm having is that each record has (4) dates fields and each record can contain null values.Is it possible to do this in a query with data like the example below?
Field 1 ID (1), Field 2 Date (12/22/2012), Field 3 Date (2/06/2013), Field 3 Date (Null), Field 4 Date (Null)
In this example I would want 2013 data but would need to be able to search any year. I could also have dates in all (4) fields
