Query For Missing Values From Training Database
Dec 2, 2006
Hi
I have inherited a database that contains details of staff training data and the tables contain the following:
Personal Information Table:
PersonalID
Surname
Forename
EmploymentStatus (this contains either Staff, Operative, or Supervisor)
Training Courses Table:
CourseID
Course Name
Course Description
Supervisor (Yes/No)
Operative (Yes/No)
Staff (Yes/No)
Training Courses Attended Table:
RecordID
PersonalID
CourseID
Date
Each of the courses in the Training Courses Table should be attended by one or more of the groups identified in the EmploymentStatus field (ie. Supervisor, Operative, Staff) and the relevant field in the Training Courses Table is flagged eg.
Training Courses Table:
CourseID, CourseName, Supervisor, Operative, Staff
100, basic safety, Yes, Yes, Yes
101, safety management, Yes, No, No
102, working with ladders, No, Yes, No
103, VDU, No, Yes, Yes
I need to identify which individuals have not attended the courses that they should have been completed (ie. compare courses attended with the list of courses associated with the EmploymentStatus associated with individual staff members, and identify which courses have no attendance dates).
How can I structure the query, I can't see how to do this with the existing tables, but I think it should be possible, but my Access expertise is just not good enough to work through this.
Any advice would be much appreciated.

I am trying to create a Microsoft Access training database for us at work and I’m not having much success. Can someone look at what I’ve done so far and see if they can make it work or if you know of one out there already that I could download and use that would probably even be better. If there is more to it than just training then that it’s probably better too because I want to expand this as I get time.
Thanks,
Mike

I have a table with the following fields
flddate
fldclassname
fldemployeename
fldstatus
I have data entered all current employee training and dates that training was done.
I am looking for an explanation on how I can set it up so i can see who of the employees have not recieved the training.
I am also looking for code for the query to calculate recurrent training dates (when the next training is due for each employee) Dates of initial training for each employee may be different, as well the training may be required every one year or every two years etc.
I am hoping that I am explaining this more clearly in hopes to get some input back from the experts on this site.
Thanks in advance.

Hi All
I am trying to setup a database to record details of who and where I trained staff. The ones I have found all include grades and marks which I don't want.
Does anyone have a sample database that can help get me started please.

I am preparing a "simple" training database. I want to do this smartly and not duplicate data.
My first table is the list of employees and their information. I have set a primary key (PK) up for each employee.
My second table is a list of training courses - title, description, start/stop time, credits, ... Each of these courses has a unique number (PK).
It's the final database table that is driving me nuts. I want it to show whether a n employee has taken/will take/not planning to take a course. My idea is to have a status field and then wanted to link that with a student number and a course number from the other tables.
In the past I would just have put common data fields StudentName from one table and CourseName from the other into the final database tables as a means of linking them. But I thought/read it's better to use a PK instead. Well when I make the third table up I get all of this Type Mismatch errors.

I am creating a training database and i have a courses table. And I need to somehow record all of the different employees that attended a course?
What i can do to make this happen? My employees have an employee number so is there a way of putting all of the employees together in one field? what field would the attendees be? currently is numeric which doesn't seem to work.

I am building a database for employee training. In the FrmNewTrainingGroup I am trying to create a form that will allow selection of a single class, a completion date, one or more instructors (or none at all) and a list of students by LName, FName, MI, EMP#. in my latest attempt, I have tried using a query of the TblEmployee to act as a go between, and dropped a subform into the FrmNewTrainingGroup, and that is not working.
Trying to get the student roster to work has been frustrating. I have been attempting to make it a check box select list that is also searchable by LName and FName [which would perhaps display a reduced list of names, as the name was typed?. This list would update a class roster text box to reflect all the selected employees for training so far, prior to the class being committed (I am planning on a button on the form).

I am in the process of creating a training database that includes levels of proficiency with certain tasks for employees.
In one of my reports I would like to appropriately display with tasks the employee "Cannot Perform";"Can Perform with Assistance";"Can Perform Alone";"Trainer" (straight from the field list of the task). But I can't seem to get the hierarchy correct. Tried it in a PivotTable too as I thought similar to PTs in Excel you could get some kind of "count" of values. Couldn't make that happen either.
Each employee has a proficiency rating on about 20 different tasks. Proficiency input is controlled by a field list. I would like to structure this part of the report like so:
------------------------------------------------------------
EMPLOYEE PROFICIENCIES
--Cannot Perform Task
----Cutting
----Trimming
----Grinding
--Can Perform With Assistance
----Painting
----Fixing
----Drilling
etc. etc. So in this case the Field itself would become the value being grouped. I know there has to be some logic either in a query or SQL.

I'm a access novice who is looking to create a database to store training records for permanent and agency staff, and contractors staff. I need the database to be able to produce reports on how many courses were trained over each month, and the total duration of the course completed (in hours).

I use a left join to join table A with table B. Table B has less matching records , so in the resulting table the field [RESULT] which comes from the table B has empty values.
If I use an expression for a new field PROCENT that involves [RESULT] I got #ERROR in all records with missing [RESULT] value. I tried various IF statements , but even IsError () function produces #ERROR.
It seems that ACCESS 2002 fails to detect missing values and gives an error for any operation. Is there any workaround for this problem?
Example
PROD_PERCENT: IIf([RESULT]>0,[RESULT]/[NETTO],0)

Below is a text file that we need to import from a POS system but the layout is not conducive to a typical database import. 2500 series of numbers are in the second field of the table and I would like to add that account number to the second field for each row and I would like to add the date 4 the field of each line but not sure how I would accomplish this.
" "|"25000.....0793"

I am working with a training database. I am a fresh newbie to access (more of an excel user).
I need to find employee's who have never completed a certain training (DPW Medication Training), which is mandatory.
I have the following tables:
Employee data TBL - Contains active ee's names
CompletedTrainings - Contains all trainings completed by individual
Events - name of all the trainings, including mandatory trainings
I have the following queries:
DPW Med Training - Lists all who have completed the training
DPW-Med-Last - Lists when each employee last had the training
Med_01 - Lists those who have had the training, but need it renewed
Any thoughts?

I have a table that stores information for multiple behavioral surveys (numerical values). My goal is to add the proper fields that compose total scores value for each respective survey (do a summation of scores). Now, under design view for my table, I see that I can add a calculated field. When I create this calculated field, I can use the Expression Builder to do a sum of the proper fields (the fields that compose a total score for a survey). The only problem that I'm encountering is that if a field that is part of a survey is missing information, the summation disregards the rest of the values for that survey.
How can I account for these missing values so that, if 1 out of my 9 fields have information, I will still get a summation score for the 9 fields? I want to be able to do this without having to change the value of the missing field to 0.
In SPSS I can easily do this by computing a variable and using a code like this:
SUM.2(field1, field2, field3, etc.)

We have an Access 2000 db, which has been used for some time and is split between a front and back end. We've come in today and tried to open the back-end, which contains only tables, and when it opens it's completely blank. We can't see any of the objects or the normal menu to access the tables, queries, etc. We can, however, import the tables into a new database, so they must be there.
Any idea why this has happened or how to stop it happening again.
Thanks.

Hi,
Can anyone tell me how to display the database window that shows all the forms, queries, tables etc in a database?
I have an Access database with startup restrictions and startup login screen. I can open the database by holding down the SHIFT key to bypass the startup options but when Access opens there appears to be no Database Window. I can create new objects in the database ok its just that there is no main database window from where I can browse objects. This is driving me mad - i know it's probably something simple but I rarely work with access
thanks

I've got a database used daily by 4 users. It's split into a frontend (10MB) with all the forms/queries/reports/vba and a backend that's just tables (170MB), and the users access the database from a network drive. All additions through the forms are logged to a text file, and at the end of the day, a report is run that prints the day's work to a PDF. The database / workflow has been stable for the last few years, with only minor edits to the code, and no programmatic changes in the last 3 months.
Today, after running a compact-and-repair, I realized that the database contained no entries added within the last 2 weeks. I checked my log files, and sure enough I see that all of my records were at some point added to the database. This is supported by the fact that I have PDFs for every day in the last 2 weeks that show exactly what was done (roughly 30 new records/day).
My first guess was that compact and repair had corrupted the database, and knocked out a chunk of records. Fortunately, I've got daily backups, so I started restoring to yesterday's database. At this point I found that the records were missing from there, and from every backup from the last 2 weeks. Now, it's possible that my backup solution (logMeIn backup) is hosed, but the the log files are getting properly restored by the backup, which leads me to believe the backup is working. So, somehow these records were never saved in the database, yet they magically appeared in my end-of-day reports?
I thought maybe I was getting stuck in some state where the database went read-only and the edits were getting stored in memory but never written to disk, but that doesn't make sense as we occasionally restart the database during the day for other reasons, and the end-of-day reports are always complete, which knocks that out. Having restored to a prior version of the DB, I attempted to make changes / add new records and they appear to be sticking, but I find my faith in Access rather shaken, all the more so because I haven't a clue what went wrong before.

I am trying to create a query which show me which of my customers in my database does not also contact a contact to go with it.
I have two tables; Customers and Contacts.
When I create a query I add the fields Company Name from the Customers Table and First Name from the Contacts Table. There are obviously other fields in both tables.
However when I run the query it does not not show me all the results. It only shows me customers if something has been entered into any of the fields in the contacts table for that Customer. I suppose this triggers a contact ID entry for that customer even if no Name has been entered.
However, how do I run a query to show me customer entries which have no contacts to go with them because no contact entry has been made for that customer?

Client has asked me to create a report showing summary of monthly sales by day. That was easy. I created a query for the month the user selected and then summarized and group the data by day. Client like the result but would like to see zeros on the report for non sales days. Non sales days are days like holidays and there are no sales.
I am thinking of creating an table with 31 days of zero values and then join the two tables in a query? Or, should I create a temporary table with code and then merge the two tables which the existing query which I can then use for the report?

I am using an Access 2010 DB to keep track of a schedule. Essentially, at least one person needs to be signed up to work for every hour of every day in a week.
Tables:
Days with 7 records
Hours with 24 records
Workers with as many people that sign up to work the different hours
Schedule signifying the worker, day, and hour which are signed up.
As of now i have a query that relates these results and gives me a line detailing the worker/time information for the slots that are signed up for.What I'm TRYING to do is to create a query that gives me BLANK worker info when there is no one signed up for a particular hour.Currently my Schedule table has the following:
WorkerID | DayID | HourID
----------+---------+--------
1 | 5 | 12
4 | 5 | 13
16 | 5 | 15
What I'm looking to do is have this table matched up with another table (or query) that provides every combination of day/hour. When an day/hour combination is skipped, the query will be able to "fill in the blank" with a row. Like this:
WorkerID | DayID | HourID
----------+---------+--------
1 | 5 | 12
4 | 5 | 13
| | 14
16 | 5 | 15

Hi all
This is an ongoing problem I have had for 4 weeks now.
I have made a a system thats acts like a clock In/clock out Out system.
the structure is somthing like this
ID
Username
tblDailyLog
TimeIn
MorningBreakOut
MorningBreakOut
LunchOut
LunchIn
AfternoonOut
AfternoonIn
TimeOut
All fields apart from ID (autonumber) and username (String*255) are Date field (there are a few others like DateOfTimesheet etc but they arnt important here)
When a user arrives in the morning they make a record which they use for the day
They then have a form with a whole bunch of buttons which simply updates the correct field. For example they click the "Sign in for the Day" button and it updates the correct field with the current time.
Everything was going fine until people noticed that every now and again a sign in time dissapeared.
I have hacked myself to death trying to solve this problem but still the updates go Astray.
Now each time a time is updated the process goes somthing like this
1. the user opens their timesheet for the day (the RS is SNAPSHOT and no locks)
2. User Hits a sign in/out button
3. The record source is changed to "" and all buttons hidden (to ensure the record isnt locked and to make sure you dont do two things at once)
3. The table is updated with the new time (using some dynamic SQL)
4. The table is repeatadly checked using a DO loop to make sure the the correct time went in.
5. when the returned time value of the field matches the varaible used to update it, the form is returned to normal and the user carries on his/her merry way (if it never matches the screen should crash but this never happens).
6. A New record is added to another table called "tblbugfixinglog" which records which field was updated and when. This is so that I have two records in two different ways (figured if one went astray I could pull it back off the other)
7. Another new record is added to yet another table called tblSQLRecord, which simply logs all .RUNSQL statements that are executed.
I thought that the two extra tables (and the check that the record had been updated) would help me track down where the records are going missing, but this isnt the case.
Now it appears that some records arnt being added to tblBugFixingLog and to tblSQLRecord either and some of these tables are getting quite a few #ERROR's in them..
None of the tables are related to any other and i've no idea how #ERROR lines are appearing in a table that has 1 function... to recieve new records ... no editing, no viewing, no deleting.
Does anyone have any idea how these updates/inserts can go missing or create #ERRORs.
I've built plenty of Databases in my time and have never come across this.
__________________________________________________ ______________
This is the function I use to add a record to tblBugfixingLog and tblSQLRecord
Private Sub AddBugLog(ByVal TimesheetNumber As Long, ByVal FieldUpdating As String, ByVal NewFieldValue)
Dim TempSQL As String
TempSQL = "INSERT INTO tblBugFixingLog (TimeAndDateOfEntrySERVER,TimeAndDateOfEntryPC,Fie ldUpdated,NewEntry,UserID,TimesheetNumber,Computer AssetNo) VALUES (" & _
"#" & Format(ServerGetTime(Environ$("LOGONSERVER"))) & "#," & _
"#" & Now & "#," & _
"'" & FieldUpdating & "'," & _
"'" & NewFieldValue & "'," & _
"'" & GetNTUser & "'," & _
"'" & TimesheetNumber & "'," & _
"'" & fOSMachineName & "')"
' MsgBox TempSQL
DoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO tblSQLRecord (Username,DateAndTime,Screen,TheSQL) VALUES('" & LoginInfo.sUsername & "','" & CStr(Now) & "','Add Bug Log function','" & CleanData(TempSQL) & "')", False
'CleanData is a function that removes ' and " from the SQL string so i can easily add the SQL string into the table
DoCmd.RunSQL TempSQL, False
End Sub
Public Function CleanData(ByVal DataToClean As String)
Dim TempData As String
Dim i As Integer
TempData = ""
For i = 1 To Len(DataToClean)
Select Case Mid(DataToClean, i, 1)
Case "'"
TempData = TempData & "`"
Case """"
TempData = TempData & "`"
Case Else
TempData = TempData & Mid(DataToClean, i, 1)
End Select
Next i
CleanData = TempData
End Function
__________________________________________________ ____
I have no idea how this can create #ERROR lines in the table when it is just added to and nothing else.
Does anyone have any clue to what may be happening here.
(Oh yeah and no matter how hard I try, I can't replicate the problem.... works for me every time no matter how harse I am to it!)
Please save what little hair I have left and give me some hope
Cheers

I have what seems to be a fairly simple question.
There are two tables in my database. A and B. Each table has the same criteria: Name, Number, and Date.
I have created a formula in my query which will add the Number fields together when they both have the same name. My problem is that when there is not a row for a particular name on table B, the calculation does not list that row in the results.
I would like for my calculation to insert a zero in the space and add Number.
I have tried the Nz function, but this results in a missing name and date and just the numbers are shown.
How do I get the results to show a row where the name is only on one field and still make sure that it places a zero in its spot and add the zero and the other number together based on the name.
Thank you in advance for any assistance.
Shawn
