In a table I have a field that gets its value from a lookup with multiple columns. Is it possible to query information in the columns rather than the actual value.
Here is an example of a single field value in the table I want to query (this would be in a drop down box in the table):
ID | Name
1 Nick
2 Nick
The actual values are the 1 and 2, but I would like to query the name 'Nick'. How would I do this?
I have a crosstab query that groups by week to obtain columns for monday to sunday. Is there a way to obtain the actual dates that these columns represent?
When I attempt to use the me.field = me.combobox.column() method to retrieve info from another query,it only works if I use column 0 or 1... it doesn't work with higher columns number.
- field name: cbofi - row source: listado-unico-fi <-- it is a query with unique values and 7 fields in total - event procedure, change:
Private Sub cbofi_Change() Me.txtDOCTPT = Me.cboFI.Column(1) Me.campovia = Me.cboFI.Column(5) End Sub
- txtDOCTPT is the field that indeed works - campovia is the one that does not work
I tried using column(0) and column(1) and it worked fine... but higher column numbers do not work. Just mentioning because the field names are all right.
Basically, I have a database table that is maintained every week. It is about e-mail account licenses for Office 365.
Each column represents a week of license data for every mailbox account which is about 10 000 plus users with the date as the field headers( something like "License information as of 06122013").
Basically, I have created 52 queries based on the license type I require to be calculated & I have a form created to control it. However, right now it is all output only as I have yet to create any user parameter to specify on any of the queries about the date I want
As I am currently unsure how to specify all the queries to use one field date header which I want the user to specify via drop down list in order to calculate all the licenses on this specific date.
For example, if I want to see the license information for 06/11/2013, I would choose "License as of 06112013" & it would then run all the queries based on the header specified earlier & output that information on the form.
Right now the queries are all configured as the "Select" type.
I print a report onto labels (Avery 5960: 3 columns of 10 labels on a letter sized piece of paper). The report and labels print fine BUT...
I need physical page breaks between certain sections. When I click on "keep whole group together on one page" in the "group by" section of the report, it starts a new COLUMN of labels (which Access sees as a new page), but does not force an actual new piece of paper.
I need to figure out the amount of days between two dates that do not exist in my database...I use this calculation to do waivers...I was able to build a table and put in the two dates and then build a query which calculates the days between the two but I wanted to know if I could build a query that prompts on a [start date] which I would enter and then prompts on an end date [end date] which I would enter to get the number of days between...is that possible?
I had...
WaiverDays: [Enter start date]-[Enter end date] but it did not let me run...I added () and it still did not run...
I am trying to run a simple update query to copy data from one column (Addrl1)to another column (Working_Addrl1) within the same file and I can't for the life of me figure it out. Then I need to repeat for addrl2 and addrl3 to working_addrl2 and working_addrl3.
I have created a cross tab to extract pipeline and sales for Q1 2014, Q2 2014, Q3 2014 & Q4 2014... the user can select the quater from a multivalued text box...
Now for the final output, have created another query which pull the above four quarter in each column from the cross tab...now the problem arises when i change the quarter to Q2 2014, Q3 2014, Q4 2014 & Q1 2014..it gives an error "Microsoft office Access database does not recognizes "Query name" as a valid field name or expression".
The error is because the second layer of query does not identifies Q1 2014.
How do i make access change the column automatically when the Q1 changes to Q2...
I am looking to add a column in a query that will give a Y or No to previous column data if it contains TEXT or NUMBER (It could read "TEXT" or "NUMBER" or even Y for text or N for number).
I need help on this, from what the best concept is, to what I need to look into using:
I store Quote data from phone calls into tblQuotes. There is a seperate table that holds much of the same information except that it is for actual orders called tblOrders.
As far as function goes, I have each working much the way I need it to except for one thing... If a sales person is on the phone with a customer with a quote already in the system, right now they re-enter the data into the Order table. Most times, the order is what was quoted, but maybe with a few small changes (so I will wnt to keep a historical record of the quote). How could I copy the contents of the quote recordset into the recordset for an order, where all the sales rep does from there is edit the quote to the actual order?
Would I use VBA or an update query that is executed via VAB? Honestly, I am unsure how to do this at all, I hope someone has seen this before and has a good suggestion...
Is there any way I can remove specific information from all the records in a field using a query? For example- how could I write a query that would remove the "NME" from NME ACTIVE; FENCE CO INC? I know you could add text to a field by including & "text".
How do I make an append query only append the records beginning with the next autonumber?
I have linked tables in db...one db is for warehouse employees to input their orders and the other table is in the original db for managers to use for reports. I need to append the records to original db throughout the day, but the records cannot be deleted from warehouse db because it keeps running total of order minutes (for production purposes) so employees know how many minutes they have (and need to make up) through the day. Also, managers need up to date db so they can see if they are on track.
The autonumber field is my primary key.. I hope this all makes sense.
For some reason the query I built will not let me enter any info into it. Is this a relationship problem or because I am using the querie in a form that has subforms, (I can enter new info into the subforms.) or because I wrote code to just print the report to the current record? Or something else????
I just can't figure out how to solve my next problem. What I need to do is to make a query showing all the country's next to germany(nr.5) with their capitals. There are three tables which I can use, nr.1 showing the country_id's with their "neighbour country's", nr.2 showing the name of the country's with their capital_id's and nr.3 showing the name of the capital with their corresponding country-id. Is there anybody who could help me with this problem, or has some suggestions? If you find this message unclear, i would love to e-mail you the tables. As i am dutch my english isn't that good. Thanks in advance
Is it possible to construct a query that uses information from one table to run a series of Like OR Like... criteria?
I have created a table that contains partial part numbers and would like to query a second table for all the part numbers that contain these partial part numbers.
Meaning, BACB30DX6 would return the desired information for BACB30DX6-7, BACB30DX6-8 and so on.
The TBL_PARTS_FAM_DIA table contains approx. 200 items so 200 LIKE statements can't be the way to go... I'm hoping.
I tried: LIKE "*[TBL_PARTS_FAM_DIA]![PARTS_FAM_DIA] *" thinking that perhaps this would go through all 200 items... but of course that was wishful thinking.
Do I really need 200 LIKE statements or is there some easier way to do this.
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.
and I am trying to create a query which lists each site and the USID with the latest date in its ConstructionDate field (USID and ConstructionDate are both in tblUSID). If I omit the USID from the query and run a totals with MAX on the ConstructionDate field, I return what I would like to, but I want to add the PK (USID) of the record with the latest ConstructionDate for another query, and every way I attempt it the query returns multiple records per SiteID.
I am importing a table into my access database from an oracle DB. The date field comes in as text (20060604 - for June 04, 2006). I am trying to build a delete query, macro, expression or anything else that searches all the records in that particular field and delete those particular records that have the actual month date. (ex:all the records that have 06 (for June) in the middle). Any help will be much appreciated.
Not even sure where to start so if this isn't a query question, please point me in the right direction.
I work in a plant that has a number of cranes. Each crane should be inspected each shift (three shifts per day), each day (less Sunday).
I have exactly what I need to capture the inspections being done. Inspections are identified by crane #, shift, and date.
How do I determine if an inspection hasn't been done? How do I compare the inspections that have been entered against the standard of inspections for each crane, each shift, each day?
I am below average with Access on my best day so please type slowly and be specific. Thanks for any help you can give.
I have a combobox with month names (january, february...december). This combobox sets the selection criteria for query. 1.How can I set the default value of combobox to actual month? Thanks
I am creating a PDF version of a Report so that I can send it as an attachment. I use the following code to do this:
Private Sub EmailWorkOrderQuote_Click() On Error GoTo Err_EmailWorkOrderQuote_Click
Dim stDocName As String Dim mFilename As String Dim mEmailAddress As Variant Dim mCompanyName As String
[Code] .....
I first create the report with a specifically generated name and save it to a folder.
I then do a SendObject to send the actual email. Unfortunately, it generates its own name for the file that it attaches and I don't think it is possible to specify an attachment.
Anyway, how to include the name of the PDF report in the actual report preferably in the footer.
Wow, seems like this is my favorite place in the world now.
My problem is that I need to append data from one table to another, on the condition that any of the fields in the record have changed since the last time the query ran.
For example,
tblEmployee has the fields 'EmployeeID', 'Name', 'Position', and 'Office'. We are appending to tblEmployeeHistory with the same fields in addition to a field for a date. When executed, the query should append the records where something has changed and attach today's date to them. This enables us to later use another query to call up old information based on the date.
Once again, this is a hypothetical situation and not my actual database. Any solution or comments are welcome.
