how to do to return a text for each row (as field value) when a table field contains "1" as value ?
for example i have a table named "products" with a field/column called "promotion". Sometime a product is promotional, so in this case, the "promo" column holds "1" as value.
during a select on products table, how can i do to return "in promotion" (e.g.) if the column "promo" holds "1" for a product ?
I've been using a SELECT INTO statement to import data from a linked text file into a temporary table in Access. Something along the lines of :
SELECT [tblLink].[fld1] AS Field1,
[tblLink].[fld2] AS Field2,
[tblLink].[fld3] AS Field3
INTO [tblTemp]
FROM [tblLink]
(There's an INNER JOIN in there and some Nz / CLng functions but just want to keep it simple...)
Now - I've just realised I also need to create a couple of extra 'dummy' fields in my temporary table (for later on in the show) and I need them to be Yes/No format (will set them to False at first, then run some separate queries later to update them)
I tried this :
SELECT [tblLink].[fld1] AS Field1,
[tblLink].[fld2] AS Field2,
[tblLink].[fld3] AS Field3,
False AS Field4,
False AS Field5
INTO [tblTemp]
FROM [tblLink]
But this sets Field4 and Field5 as Number fields, with each record given a value of 0. What syntax is required in the SQL to make these fields Yes/No rather than Number?
I was just wondering if this is a possibility to do in one query or if it has to be run from a number of different queries.
I am currently developing a database from scratch for work (with very little Access experience).
The current query I am trying to run, if linked to a number of tables with different information.
What I am trying to do primarily is link stock to a specific "Host Name", "Serial Number" and "Part Description".
In the "Host Name" there is for example - A1-TX10-10001, B1-TX2-10004, C1-TX-10004 - The latter part of the name is a unique identifier number. The first part is the compartment in which the "stock" sits. So you may have all three components (A1-TX1, B1-TX2, C1-TX3) linked to the same unique identifier (10001 for example)
The serial numbers naturally are different for every single one and of course the srial numbers are linked to the "Part Description" - which will read something like....."C1-TX3 Transmitter", "B1-TX2 Combiner" etc.....
When I run the query like this the Host Name (which is also linked to the unique identifier on its own (10001) it returns everything under "A1-TX1-10001"
What I would ideally like to do is write a statement so that if the "Part Description" contains "A1-TX1" it will only return rows that contain "A1-TX1" in the Host Name and the same for "B1-TX2" and "C1-TX3" in the same query.
If "Host Name" contains "A1-TX1" to return "Part Description" to contain "A1-TX1"
Produce a query that returns a yes or no (Y or N) field if other text field contains particular text (with wildcard on either side).
Idea is to have a column for each preset word.
I have a field which contains "01501 PRIKLJ. VRHNIKA - LJ / Stevno mesto" .
1.) I would like to extract just text part from that field, how? *number is always on beginning but different 1-10000
2.) Optional, how could I delete in this new only text field part of text after / ...*some rows have some dont /
In my query, I have the week number and year arranged like this - "Y14-W11"
I want to return a value in a text box on a report if the string contains, for example, W11. In this textbox I've put the expression
Code:
=IIf([Y##-W##]="*" & "W11" & "*","2100000","BLAH")
But this just returns the falsepart no matter if the string contains W11 or not.
I am trying to search for specific text in a field and returns its value. For instance some of string includes Sub, L2L, Temp, Model, or MTM and I would like a query to return these values if found.

Is there a place within an Access database besides a table where you can store a flag (text or boolean or number) that persists after the database is closed and can be checked when the database is opened (using VBA)?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm fairly new to Access. 's various select queries containing useful and useless results. I want to create a select query that will pick out all the useful figures into a 1 row table that can then be pasted into Excel.
e.g Existing Select Query 1 returns 1 row showing Average Age, Average Price, Total rainfall
Existing Select Query 2 returns 1 row showing Average Weight, Average Salary, Total snowfall
Existing Select Query 3 returns *2* rows: It returns Distance from London, Hours daylight and population for Town A and Town B
I want a select query that returns 1 row showing (6 items):
Total rainfall, Total snowfall, Town A Distance from London, Town A Population, Town B Distance from London, Town B Population.
I've been able to handle getting Total rainfall and Total snowfall. But I cant figure out how to get Town A Distance from London, Town A Population, Town B Distance from London, Town B Population to appear in the same row of the same query results as Total rainfall, Total snowfall.
Hi there,
I know there have been a good number of questions about visibility in forms already but I couldn't find a solution to my problem (or maybe I just didn't get it).
Basically, I have a tabular form (more than one record displayed at once) and one the field is of the Yes/No type. For each record, I'd like to have a text box that displays 'pending', set as visible if the field value is 'Yes' and set as invisible if the field value is 'No'.
The table is as follows:
id : auto-number
Flag: Yes/No [Yes]
If I use the following code on the Flag button:
Private Sub Flag_AfterUpdate()
Me.pending2.Visible = Me.Flag.Value
End Sub
all the 'pending' text boxes appear and disappear together (instead of just the relevant one).
I thought of using another text box, with the same data source ('Flag') but which would set itself to visible or invisible wrt to its own value but I couldn't find a way to do it.
Any suggestions ?
Thanks in advance !
and many thanks already for the forum and the contributions - it's been extremely helpful, esp. for a beginner.
I would like to change the text formatting (color, italics, bold etc) of the contents of a control based on a boolean value in the underlying datasource of the report.
For instance, I have a report that generates a "Proforma Invoice" i would like to ability italicize the prices of certain items based based on a boolean value (EstimatedPrice) in the underlying datasource.
I have a column which contains "text digit text" as "AAA 222 BBB". The numbers of letters or digits can vary.
I need to SELECT the column which contains digits in a specific interval. For Example I have
"DFS 673 JKK"
"A 3454 LJLJ"
"SD 854 JKLJD"
I need to SELECT the column which contains 600 < Digit < 700 the result of the query in this case would be "DFS 673 JKK" because 673 is between 600 and 700.
Thanx for any clue or suggestion...
I have a table with seven Boolean fields: I need to count all the "trues" and return the row if the sum of the trues is greater than 3.how to do this.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a query which returns, among other things, a number of boolean fields. In some cases, there will be a genuine True or False value in each of these fields; in others, it can and should be Null (e.g. as a result of a 'failed' LEFT JOIN of some description, where there is no associated record in the joined table which fulfills the criteria)
So something like this :
Code:
SELECT [tblTable2].[fldBooleanField]....
FROM [tblTable1]
LEFT JOIN [tblTable2]
ON [tblTable1].[SomeID] = [tblTable2].[SomeID]
However, I will be writing the result of the query to a text file and here's the problem. I want to show a numeric value for a genuine True / False (i.e. -1 and 0 respectively using the standard boolean conversions in Access) and a blank for any Null values.
So I tried this :
Code:
SELECT CInt([tblTable2].[fldBooleanField]) AS fldBooleanField....
FROM [tblTable1]
LEFT JOIN [tblTable2]
ON [tblTable1].[SomeID] = [tblTable2].[SomeID]
However, currently when I look at the exported recordset in Notepad, I am getting 0's for both False and Null values (and -1 for True)
How I can adapt my query to keep Nulls...null? And convert the genuinely present boolean values to integer form?
Only thing I can think of is to use (untested) :
Code:
IIf([tblTable2].[fldBooleanField] Is Null, Null, CInt([tblTable2].[fldBooleanField]))
But there's a number of boolean fields in there, all requiring the same treatment.

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

5, 150
I need to create a report which delivers the sales rep with the most sales and only that sales rep

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'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?

I have a table that has a list of tasks and checkboxes attached to them to be checked once the task is completed. I need to run a query on the table that will only bring me back the tasks with a completion that is false.
Everything that I read online indicates that this is a difficult task for access. Maybe I can accomplish this in SQL view instead of design? If I put false is all of the yes/no fields, the query brings back nothing.

I have two tables with a one to many relationship. The tables are linked by the INDEX column.
EXAMPLE:
Code:
TABLE_1
INDEX NAME
1 Name_A
2 Name_B
3 Name_C
TABLE 2
INDEX NUM_INDEX STATUS
1 1 REJECTED
1 2 REJECTED
1 3 OPEN
2 1 CLOSED
3 1 REJECTED
3 2 OPEN
I need the NAME field from TABLE_1 and the Last STATUS field from TABLE_2 (MAX of NUM_INDEX).
Example:
Name_A, OPEN
Name_B, CLOSED
Name_C, OPEN
SQL that I have now.
Code:
SELECT A.FIN_Finding_Number, B.Max_Index
FROM TBL_Findings AS A INNER JOIN (SELECT RES_Finding_Index, Max(RES_Response_Index) As Max_Index
FROM TBL_Response GROUP BY RES_Finding_Index ) AS B ON A.FIN_Finding_Index = B.RES_Finding_Index
WHERE (((A.FIN_Finding_Index)=34));
This SQL statement will return me the Finding_Number and Max_Index. I don't need the Max_Index. I need the Status. If I put the Status in the Sub-Query and GROUP BY it, it will return both REJECTED and OPEN. I just need it to return OPEN.
I am trying to create a Totals Query which returns a data set between two dates. So far I have managed to select the data I want (Please see attached screenshot).

View 7 Replies View RelatedHow do I design a query to return a result in a wildcard format? So that I could enter a part of a name, and it returns all the names that include that part of name?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an existing query, created using the query wizard which works just fine - however, I would like to modify it to return only instances where there are 3 or more records appearing.
Essentially, its an employee history report for a particular action done by those employees, which returns all records between two dates as specified by the user. What I would like to do is only show those employees who have had more than three instances of this action in the given date period.
I am thinking along the lines of DCount? but how it would be phrased in the query?
