I want to compare two queries as follows: Select all the records in query1 where the value in fieldA does NOT also appear in any record in fieldA of query2. Is there an easy way to do this using the query tools or will this require a vba function?

I need to identify pairs of records by their ID and date fields, then compare their number values to get a text result.
I have a query that has the following fields
AuthInstanceID, ConsumerID, AuthNumberID, AuthStart, AuthEnd, PSRUnits, BSTUnits.
Sample data is below (PSRChange and BSTChange are fields I want to self populate based on the comparison I'm trying to do)
AuthInstanceID....ConsumerID....AuthNumberID....Au thStart....AuthEnd....PSRUnits....BSTUnits - PSRChange -BSTChange
1374006036.........356679..........20255102....... ....4/22/13.......7/21/13....0.............416~~~~-Loss~~~~~-None
-432536491.........356679...........20255102....... ...1/21/13.......4/21/13....104..........416~~~~-Loss~~~~~-Loss
-124970517.........356679...........20147863....... ...10/23/12.....1/20/13....208..........520~~~~-None~~~~~-Null
504564357...........469432..........20254788...... ....4/22/13.......7/21/13....0.............520~~~~-None~~~~~-None
282523535...........469432..........20254788...... ....1/21/13.......4/21/13....0.............520~~~~-None~~~~~-Gain
356661326...........469432..........20254788...... ....11/20/12......1/20/13....0.............416~~~~-None~~~~~-Null
What I need to do is compare these records in the following fashion:
Identify pairs of records where ConsumerID is the same AND AuthStart dates are successive. Then compare PSRUnits of more recent record (by AuthStart) with the previous record (by AuthStart) and determine the change of PSRUnits between them. If change is positive, "Gain" in field PSRChange, "Loss" for a loss, "None" for no change, and "Null" if there is an error due to no previous record to compare with. Do the same with BSTUnits/BSTChange
I've tried adding the following fields, but this did not work
PrevEnd: (Select Max(AuthEnd) from tblAuthorizations Where AuthEnd < Auths.[AuthStart])
PrevBST: DLookUp("[BSTUnits]","tblAuthorizations","AuthEnd=" & [PrevEnd] And "ConsumerID=" & [ConsumerID])
I have 2 tables. Quotation Details and Order Details. As you fill in the Order details Form I wish to compare fields from the
Quotation Details Table. Is this possible? Please advise.
Thank you.
As a Access newbie I am looking into a problem that I hope to solve structurally and "transparently" via Access in stead of Excel.
I would like to compare two similar tables for different months. I am looking for:
+ loan id's that are new in table(t), i.e. not exist in table(t-1)
+ loan id's that exited: that is exist in table(t-1) and not in table(t)
+ loan id's that stayed in both
How do I solve this in the easiest way?
I have one table A that has a Name field that I would like to find if it matches any of the cases in table B with 2 other fields: Field 1 or Field 2
There is no way of establishing referential integrity because the Name Field can be found in either Field 1 or Field 2.
How would I go about searching so I can pull in the rest of the data that I need with when the Name is matched either with Field 1 or 2?
I have three sources of data which all equate to a reconciliation of the same data e.g. the same record of a stock holding is held on three separate systems, which must all be the same.
I am trying to build a an equation in a query field, which compares each quantity:
Qty Diff: [Dealer Qty]-[Pulse Qty]-[SWFAL Qty].
If the quantities are all the same, then I want to return a Zero. If one or more of them are different, I want that difference to show. Variance of the above equation that would do it?
I have run into some problems by comparing two lists. My project is to compare two lists and on the below listed criteria's and with the wanted results.
Criteria's:
1. Part
2. Colour
3. pcs.
Wanted results:
1. Equal match (same part, Colour and pcs (pcs difference above and equal 0)
2. Equal match (same part, colour but missing pcs. (pcs difference below 0)
3. Missing parts (difference in org. list - 1 and 2 query)
But already in the first part I run into problems. I do a query as below. (picture attached)
SQL code:
SELECT Parts_All.[Lego part], Parts_All.farve, Parts_All.Antal, [Set 7897-1].[Lego part], [Set 7897-1].farve, [Set 7897-1].Antal, [Parts_All]![Antal]-[Set 7897-1]![Antal] AS Part_Diff
FROM Parts_All RIGHT JOIN [Set 7897-1] ON Parts_All.[Lego part] = [Set 7897-1].[Lego part]
GROUP BY Parts_All.[Lego part], Parts_All.farve, Parts_All.Antal, [Set 7897-1].[Lego part], [Set 7897-1].farve, [Set 7897-1].Antal
HAVING (((Parts_All.[Lego part]) Like [All_parts]![Lego part]) AND ((Parts_All.farve) Like [Set 7897-1]![farve]) AND (([Parts_All]![Antal]-[Set 7897-1]![Antal])>=0));
This query is returning 2 of the same lines with part and colour but with different pcs. Why.?
I have a table [VL] with four fields, [vl_id], [product], [vl_date], [valeur_liquidative].
The idea of the table is that you can input and update the value of each product on a given day.
I need to find the difference in days between successive dates (vl_date) each time that a product value (valeur_liquidative) is updated. Values aren't updated everyday as it is not updated during the weekends. I have had a go at this but have struggled..
A picture of what the table looks like is attached for reference.
I have 2 tables one Access, one FoxPro both containing similar information. The idea of my query is to compare both tables and update the Access table if the value in the FoxPro table has changed. This works fine for a number of similar queries that I have. However, intermittently, this query will see two values as different when they are exactly the same and replace the value in the Access table with a seemingly random value. I know the "Random" values are from other records within the table but cannot see any link between the values.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a table which is used to record electric billing period dates, total kWh and costs for a list of locations each month. I would like to compare the quarter total kWh and costs for this year "2013" against same quarter last year "2012". I have created two queries, the 1st is capturing data from 2013 and the 2nd is capturing data from 2012. I created a 3rd query which joins the 1st and 2nd together by month where fields match. Both tables have the same fields, however there is more records in 2012 than 2013. How can I join the tables together so months that have no data are left blank?

I have two identical Access tables, for example tblDataYesterday and tblDataToday. The data from tblDataToday has updated data changes in it that are different from tblDataYesterday. I have a maximum of 100 fields to review. I want to compare the two tables and display in a query the differences between the data from both tables.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a table that has a date field set to text. I use the Mid function and get just the month in a query. I have a textbox on a form that when the user adds a month or removes a month from a selected listbox it adds or removes that months number from the textbox.
I want to us that text box on the form as the criteria for the month (the Mid function getting the month) and I can seem to get it to read what's in the textbox and use it as the criteria. I can manually type in a number and it works fine.
I can not solve this problem, my Access knoledge is mediocre.

I want to make a query that results in displaying records that have the same IP-address where the difference in the date/time stamp is within 1 minute. When the date/time stamp is > 1 minute the record can be deleted from the table.
I'm trying to write a report which initially I didnt think would be hard to do, but when it came time to write the underlying query I realized it was a bit above me.
I cant give away too much of the database structure here, due to legal issues, so sorry for being vauge. Hopefully I can give enough information that someone can get me started.
I have three tables that will be used in this query. One is called NAMES and has all of personal details of contacts. The only fields that are needed from this table are the primary key and citizenship field.
The other two tables are virtually the same, and they are the two being compared. One is REGISTRATION and the other APPLICATION. Essentially what I want here is to be able to compare the number of who applied to the number who actually registered.
Here are the pseudo-tables to give you a better picture:
NAMES
nID
FName
LName
DoB
Citizenship
REGISTERED
programCode
startDate
endDate
nID (foreign key)
APPLIED
programCode
startDate
endDate
nID (foreign key)
I've tried a few different approaches which worked in my head, but when it came time to run the query the results were different. Any suggestions on how I should tackle this?
is it possible to compare values in 2 different rows? for example if the query returns this:
1 | $5.00
2 | $6.00
3 | $20.00
4 | $30.00
i want to find out the cost difference between 1 and 2 which will be $6-$5 and then 2 and 3 which will be $20-$6 and so on. how can i make this happen in SQL? any suggestions?
I am trying to compare two different fields in the same query and return the most recent date in some another field. Would I be able to do this and if so how?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hello again...
Is it possible to use a UNION query for comparison between to tables or queries?
If so, please advise how to
example:
one query consists of a selection of books, grouped by category for a student
the second query consists of all books, grouped by category for a student
The purpose of the new union query is to check if the student has all the applicable books in his booklist; if the student has forgotten to pick a book for his list, this new query will show the one(s) the student forgot.
Kind of cryptical this example, hope i could make it clear enough...
Okay I have a query that pulls from a table. It's pretty simple - nothing big.The query will be used to correct information in some sales tax data.I have 3 colums with sales tax info, and they should all be the same. I want to compare each column to show only those which don't match each other.NetTax, TotalTax, and TaxB are the fields.In the query, for the criteria of NetTax, I put in:<> [TotalTax]When I run the query, I get results, but they are all equal.EG:4.35 4.35 4.35I don't want them to show, and not sure if that's the right way to go about it or what.If I run without that criteria, I get 21,600 results.With that in the criteria, I get 304 results. So it is working somewhat...but for whatever reason some don't seem to be seen as being equal? I don't get it. Data type is number and they are formatted the same way.

I will try to keep this succinct.
I have a query that totals a column in a sub-form. The query also gets a sum from the main form for the same record. Is it possible to have a message/colour change/warning if the total of the column in the sub-form exceeds the other number in the query? I would need this comparison to take place within this query, rather than creating a new one.
Thanks!

I have 4 tables (one for each quarters data) each with the same fields:
Fund
FundFamily
Value
I have a query for each table that sums the values for each FundFamily (if there are multiple funds with the same FundFamily, it only shows the sum for the Family).
I am wanting a query that will show all of the different FundFamily fields from each table, but only once (say there is a Value in one quarter, but not the next). How is the best way to go about this?
Does what I'm trying to do here make sense?

Hi
I have such situation:
i have tables [k] and [r] with street and city field.
I would like set on field[dubel] in the second table [r] in the rows where the street and the city are the same for the both tables.
There could be one to many relations. It means many fields in [k] could have the same as in [r]
I've tried with this query but it marks all the fields....
UPDATE r SET dubel=1 where EXISTS ( SELECT r.str, cit
FROM k, r
WHERE (([k].[str]=[r].[str]) AND ([k].[cit]=[r].[cit])));
when i'm using just select part, it gives me good results.....
Can Anyone help ME?
THANKS

Hi there,
I'm trying to 'rank' x5 categories that overlap. To determine the ranking i'm utilising date & time (if the dates are equal). I've managed to do this comparing x2 of the categories but struggling with the logic for x3,x4 & x5 categories
I have the data in separate tables by category date & time and in one large table.
Hoping someone can assist as my head is starting to hurt.
Thanks
I posted in this section because I don't know a better category.
I have data (from a cross tab report) that looks:
16763
and I would like it to look like:
16764
So that the 'X's make a diagonal.... It helps the humans understand the data better. :D
I was thinking of exporting the query to excel and then running a script that would look for 'X's in the first column and then move those rows to the bottom. And so forth for each column, until they are in a diagonal like above. (Because the rightmost 'X's are moved to the bottom last).
Am I barking up this tree the wrong way? Does someone know how to do this?
EDIT: I have multiple groups like 'Date' in the above example. Basically for each group I would like it to be diagonal. I also have some groups that use 'Feature A, Feature B, ect' in place of Date, and for those groups I need to leave the rows undisturbed.
