Query Based On Multiple LIKE
Feb 14, 2006
Hi.
I have a situation where I have 2 tables A (20K records) and B (2K records).
Each table has a field 'Name'.
I'm trying to figure out a query that will return all the records in table A that have a LIKE match in table B, i.e a the name in table B is somewhere in the record in table A (pattern matching).
So, it looks as tough I would need to step through the records in table B, take the data in the 'Name' field, compare it with a Like '*<whatever>*' match on table A to return any records that contain that data from table B.
Then move onto the next record in table B and compare it again to all of table A and so on.
The result set would then display just the unique rows from table A that had a pattern match with one of the rows in table B.
Hope I'm making myself clear, apologies if not.
Any ideas?

Hi there,
I have a query to update data to a table which takes the account ID from the form and updates. This works fine as is.
The problem is that the update can be made on several different forms and was wondering whether there was a way to conditionally select the ID in the query based on what form is open. I have tried some combinations of IIF statements but every time I get a parameter prompt for the Forms that are not open.
Is there any way around this or do I just need a separate query for each form. Any advice would be appreciated.

For some reason, this one is driving me nuts so i would really appreciate some help.
This is kind of complicated to explain but here goes.
I am trying to create a query so that, based on certain conditions certain rows from the Form/Table are either visible or not visible on the report.
I have four fields involved:
Antic Dep$ (Anticipated Deposit Amount)
Antic Loan$ (Anticipated Loan Amount)
Date Dep Booked
Date Loan Booked
Basically i am trying to hide any records that in which the Date Dep Booked and/or Date Loan Booked are older than the current month...
I can think it through logically but cannot get my head around the query.
If Date Dep Booked or Date Loan Booked is not older than current month then show the row;
If Date Dep Booked is older than current month and Date Loan Booked is older than current month then hide the row; unless
If Date Dep Booked is older than current month but Date Loan Booked is not older than current month then show the row; except
If Date Dep Booked is older than current month and Antic Loan$ is zero then hide the row; but
If Date Dep Booked is older than current month and Antic Loan$ is not zero then show the row;
Then i also need to do the reverse for the Date Loan Booked, i.e.
If Date Loan Booked is older than current month but Date Dep Booked is not older than current month then show the row; except
If Date Loan Booked is older than current month and Antic Dep$ is zero then hide the row; but
If Date Loan Booked is older than current month and Antic Dep$ is not zero then show the row;
Phew! That probably makes no sense but i had to try.
Once again, i appreciate any help so that i can keep the remainder of my hair.

I have a table(Product Change) with these fields:
Tracking Number
Approved (a check box)
Engineering (text box that represents department)
Purchasing (text box that represents department)
Quality (text box that represents department)
Production (text box that represents department)
Customer Service (text box that represents department)
I want my query results to show all records that have the "Approved" check box...checked, and then only the records that have one of the Department fields with a null value.
So I'm looking to see only records that are "Approved" and out of those....only the records with at least one department field empty(Null).
Any help doing this is SQL view would be great...or even design view.

Table1 gives Case Nu.
Table2 gives Case Nu. and EventType.
Table3 gives EventType and Cleared (yes/no field)
I want to run a query that gives Case Nu and Event where if there is even one event marked Cleared for a Case, then that case number and its events (even those not marked cleared) don't show up at all.
Any ideas? I know there must be an obvious solution, but my mind is stuck right now!

I am working in MS access 2007.
What I am trying to do is fairly simple i just dont have the ability to correctly code what i want to do.
I want to filter my query based on some criteria in multiple columns. But i only want the query to filter based on the specific criteria if a checkbox has been selected.
Basically i want the criteria for one of the columns criteria to read
IF a check box "Check0" is selected THEN filter the column to only records that = 1 and if "Check2" then filter all records that = 2

My form-based search mechanism uses controls to set the parameters for the query data source.
I have one field call quantity in stock. I could you a Between and And method to allow the end user to input the stock quantity they want.
HOWEVER, i would love it for the user to first select the Comparison Operator (e.g. > , <, >=, <=) from a combo box and then in an adjacent text box, enter the quantity.
The expression i entered in the query goes something like this.... Forms![frmSearch]![cboRange] & [Forms]![frmSearch]![txtQuantity]
When i try and run this, i get the message "THe expression is too complex to be evaluated".

At present I have a tblData, a tblPeople, a long union query and a report that displays its results. On a form I select a person from tblPeople (another field on that table contains their email address), run the query and report in that person's respect and email the results to them.
What I want to do is add a button which runs some VBA code which cycles through tblPeople, runs the query for each person, works out if the query has returned any records from tblData for that person, and if so - sends them the report.
I am using Access 2010

I am currently working on a project to develop an access database to manage a roster of calls to clients on a daily basis based on two general criteria:
1. Pre-determined days selected by the client. (e.g. Call Mon, Wed, Fri only. This can change as client requirements change.)
2. Ad-hoc changes based on the client’s circumstances. (e.g. No call from 27/7/2015 to 29/7/ 2015)
I have managed to successfully deal with the second of these with the following expression in a query:
CallToday?: IIf((Date()>=[NoCallFrom] And Date()<=[NoCallTo]),"No","Yes")
However dealing with the first is a little more difficult to work out. I have tried a multivalue lookup field with multiple days selectable, but constructing an IIF query to deal with these multiple values is proving quite a challenge.
I am thinking of using a table with days of the week and a junction table to allow the multi-selection, but I may need constructing the relationships and the query here.

I have an access database in which I have a table A and table B. Table A has a list of 200 website URLs. Table B has one column ID and another criteria.
I want to create a query to filter websites list which does not have values or characters from table b.
I have these values in table B that I want to be filtered out or not shown in my URL Select Query
.org
.gov
.du
.pk
.dk
I would keep on adding more criteria into this so criteria table so adding new criteria into table B should not disturb our filtering.
Below is what I have tried but in vain and it says atmost you can atmost one criteria row in sub query
SELECT tableA.WEB_ADDRESS
FROM tableA
WHERE ((([tableA].[wEB_ADDRESS] Not Like '*'+(SELECT * FROM tableB)+'*')=True));

Is it possible to run a basic select query to pull records based on multiple strings entered by a user?
I have a query with field criteria - Like '*' & [Type In MMDBID:-] & '*'
This allows the user to input one MMDBID and the records are retrieved from the db.
I can also use the OR statement in the same field criteria "AB123" OR "BC123", and all records based on those values are pulled back.
But I cannot get the user to input multiple values and I tried amending the SQL string based on the OR criteria above
SQL statement (Like) is below :
SELECT tblFund.MMDBID, tblFund.[Investment Name], tblCodesLive.[IOE Code], tblCodesLive.[Uptix Code], tblFund.[Red Payment Deadline]
FROM (tblFund INNER JOIN tblCodesLive ON tblFund.MMDBID = tblCodesLive.MMDBID) INNER JOIN tblContact ON (tblFund.MMDBID = tblContact.MMDBID) AND (tblCodesLive.MMDBID = tblContact.MMDBID)
WHERE (((tblFund.MMDBID) Like '*' & [Type In MMDBID:-] & '*') AND ((tblFund.Editing)=False) AND ((tblFund.Closed_Fund)=False));

My report produces multiple copies of the same record. I know why, but don't know how to fix it.
EmployeeTable.
With a one to many relationship with TrainingTable (via employee PK as FK in trainingtable).
Training table has a one to many relationship with a table called Range.
Report is based on a query that picks up the Employee/Training/Range (range just describes the training unit).
However, If I have more than one range expressed organized a training unit, the report spits out several copies of the Employee record to display all the ranges.

I need to count records based on multiple criteria from two different tables. I have two tables (i.e. "tblTasks" and "tblTaskHistory"). The tables have a one-to-many relationship based on the "TaskID" field. "tblTasks" has a field called "AssignedTo" and "tblTaskHistory" has a field called "TaskStatus". I need to know how many tasks have been "reopened", the "reopened" status is located in the "TaskStatus" field in "tblTaskHistory". I need this count against a unique listing of employees which can be found in the "AssignedTo" field in "tblTasks".

I have a queries that do all the calculations and dumps the output to Query X for all different types of customers. At the moment I am required to generate a report for each of the customers and send it to them, manually.
End Goal:Initiate a Macro (at a given time at a given frequency) that would run a process to generate different reports for all different types of customers using a standard report template. I am also trying to avoid having to create a report for each customer (as the customer base grows, the report count will grow) so looking at something that would look into Query X and generate # of reports depending on number of customers.

I have a combo named cbogroup. I have a tblGroup with several records (active, non-active, nursery, etc.). One of the records is *ALL*. Using the CboGroup the user can pick any of the records. Howeverr, if they pick the *ALL* record, I want the query to pull up animalID based on all records in the TblGroup. If another record is picked (i.e. nursery), then the query will pull up only animalIDs that are in the 'Nursery'.Can I put a (iff then) in a query in order to differentiate a query based on all group records or a query based on only one record?

Hi all,
stuck on this, not sure if it can be resolved....
I have a parameter query for which the parameter is based on a form field entry (i wanted to avoid the dialog box popping up).
No problems with this....however, I want to create a chart based on the same query however, i get the following error message because it does not recognise the query parameter.
Error Message: The Microsoft Jet database engine does not recognise '[Forms]![frmChooseDTDate]!DateOccured' as a valid field name or expression.
Can this be resolved?
Help most appreciated!
regards to all

I apologize if this has been adressed. I searched but did not find it. Partially I think because it won't let me use the word 'two' in the search. That's kinda important in this case.
I know how to make a lookup combo box. I used the wizard and copied and pasted the code, actually. What I need is the code to base the lookup from two combos.
For example, the records in my table contain information about different districts on certain dates.
I'd like to lookup the record that matches both the Report Date combo and the District combo.
Thanks in advance.

Hi there i am building a search form and I want it to be able to display results from multiple criteria......Currently I am able to display results in a listbox, whenever the user types in a id number in a text box. So if a user types 63 in the ID text box the record with and ID of 63 will appear in the list box or it will wont if the record does not exist..... What i want to do is be able to search on multiple criteria. Sof if a user wants to search based on a name instead of a id number they woudl be able to. What I am struggling to grasp is how to invoke a OR in the criteria box. So that the list box will display results based on either the ID text box OR the name text box.
Any thoughts?

I'm trying to build a query that uses the information pulled from controls on a form called "CharacterCreation" - 2 of the controls are "Race" and "Class", and the form stores this data in a "Characters" table.The query needs to refer to the Characters table, and another table called "Modifiers".In this second table I have several numerical fields such as hp, str, etc, and I have two other fields called "Type_Modifier" and "Type" Among the Type_Modifiers are Race and Class, where their corresponding "Type" could be for instance Demon and Magician..
So the idea is that when I mark on the form (and thus creating the record in the first table) a Race of "Demon", and a class of "Magician" I want the query to refer to both of these fields, and sum the values in the second table where the "Type" is either "Demon" or "Magician" or whatever I decided to choose. I feel like I should be able to figure this out but I'm having a hard time..Here's an example of the SQL I've tried that shows nothing.
Code:
SELECT Characters.Char_Name, Sum(Modifiers.hp) AS SumOfhp
FROM Modifiers INNER JOIN Characters ON (Modifiers.Type = Characters.Class) AND (Modifiers.Type = Characters.Color2) AND (Modifiers.Type = Characters.Color1) AND (Modifiers.Type = Characters.Species) AND (Modifiers.Type = Characters.Race)
GROUP BY Characters.Char_Name, Modifiers.Type
HAVING (((Modifiers.Type)=[Characters].[Race]));
I also tried this, which I thought would work but it displays nothing as well.
Code:
SELECT Characters.Char_Name, Sum(Modifiers.hp) AS SumOfhp
FROM Modifiers INNER JOIN Characters ON (Modifiers.Type = Characters.Class) AND (Modifiers.Type = Characters.Color2) AND (Modifiers.Type = Characters.Color1) AND (Modifiers.Type = Characters.Species) AND (Modifiers.Type = Characters.Race)
GROUP BY Characters.Char_Name, [Type]=[Characters].[Race];

hi,
i am querying a single table that contains card numbers and corresponding transaction codes (amongst other things). a single card number can have multiple transaction codes.
i want to select all card numbers that have both 0100 and 0802 transaction codes.
if i use a select query with ="0100" Or "0802"as the criteria, it returns all card numbers that have either 0100 or 0802 transaction types. if i then change the query to crosstab and group by card number, it is clear that some cards have both transaction types.
when i try to change the criteria to ="0100" And "0802" it returns nothing at all.
i'm sure the solution is something really simple - any idea what i'm doing wrong?

My db has several tables tb1, tb2 tb3 tb4 ..... I have link tb1 to tb2 (tb1Id to tb2)and linked tb2 to tb3 and tb4 (tb2Id to tb3 and tb4)
I have created a form with several field from tb1 and tb2 and a single field for tb3 and tb4. All of the fields except one for tb1 are use to make a decision based on what they display. The only field that is updated on the form is a date conversion field from tb1. once you update this field it will auto populate a date field on tb1 with current date. you then have a choice of 4 commands to activate based on what is displayed form the rest of the form.
my problem none of the fields can be updated. can any one help
qry the form is based on
tb1 [Name]
tb1 [ID]
tb1 [date conversion] 'this is the only field that is manualy updated
tb1 [date] 'updated base on date conversion field being updated
tb2 [field]
tb3 [Yes/no]
tb4 [yes/no]
based on what is displayed on the form you have 4 choices of cmd buttons.

If I want to sum the percentages from April, May and June only if a column is Not Null, how would I do that?
example
Tbl 1
PK, Month
Percent
Tbl 2
FK, Month Enrolled
Qty of Rx in the 1st month enrolled
Qty of Rx in 2nd qtr
Base (if Qty of Rx in 2nd Qtr is null then Qty of Rx in 1st month enrolled)
If Qty of Rx in 2nd QTR is NOT NULL then QTY of Rx in 2nd Qtr * Sum of April Percent+May Percent+June Percent, otherwise Qty of Rx in 1st month enrolled * Month Percent
Im getting stuck on how to sum the percents of April, May and June and then multiplying the result times the Qty ONLY IF the field is not null.
I only know how to create Query's using the design mode. I dont know how to write SQL statements.
