I have two tables with a one to many relationship but not every record has a match on the many side. When I run a query containing both tables and tell the relationship to use all records from the one side and only the records that match from the many side it returns correct execpt when the 1 side has a match only the matches display not the original record from the 1 side.
Table1
ID 1
ID 2
Table2
ID 2 SubID1
ID 2 SubID2
Query display wanted
ID 1
ID 2
ID 2 SubID 1
ID 2 SubID 2
I have some experience doing 'Update Query' using two different tables but I'm having a hard time doing an 'Update Query' using 3 tables.
I have my source table TP05XY with the fields 'Mark' 'Date' 'UTM_Edig' and 'UTM_Ndig'. Mark and Date are my primary keys (they together uniquely ID each record). I have my Observations table with the fields 'Mark' 'Date' and 'Obs_ID'. The last table is Locations with 'Obs_ID' 'UTM_E' and 'UTM_N'.
I want to update my fields UTM_E and UTM_N from UTM_Edig and UTM_Ndig. However, to do so, I have to go from my TP05XY table, through Observations table to update Locations table. Table TP05XY is joined to Observations through 'Mark' and 'Date' and Observations table is linked to Locations through 'Obs_ID' field.
I have tried a few options without success ... anyone knows how to do it?
I am using Access 2010.I have a table that I am using to pull my data from other tables and a query.My table is called tblMyData.One of the field names is level1. This field points to another table, and gives the user the choices for states (examples California, Texas, Maine).
Another field name is level2. This field points to another table and give the user the choice for type of customer (examples Business, Consumer) The field name level3 points to a query. The query, qryFinalChoice matches up the choices based on level1 and level2.for example, the user can pick California for level1, business in level2 and California Widgets or Los Angeles Clothing store in level3 (plus about 20 other choices).
If the user picks Texas for level1, business in level2, business in level2 and Houston rugs, or Texas style restaurant in level3 (or about 15 other choices).
-I am recording 1 for California on level1, 2 for Texas and 3 for Maine in level1. -I am recording 1 for business and 2 for consumer on level2.
The query qryFinalChoice has all the combinations for state, business or consumer, and lastly business name or consumer name.
-qryFinalChoice has line1 to match up the choices for level1 in my table. -qryFinalChoice has line2 to match up the choices for level2 in my table. -qryFinalChoice has line3 to match up the choices for level3 in my table.
I do not want any of the Texas business names appearing when the user picks California, or vice versa.
My SQL in my tblMyData tab for level3 looks like this: Select line1 from qryFinalChoice where line1=1;
I am able to get all the line items where California is a selection.How do I change my SQL to pull all the line1 choices where I have selected from level1, and all the line2 choices where I have selected from level2 automatically based on my pulldowns?
I'm looking into storing query data in temp tables for my reports run better. From what I'm reading, it seems best to have the temp tables in a separate db, and to break the links to avoid bloating of the FE database. I'm unsure how to do this with VBA, especially since my temp database will be password protected. When do I break the link - when I close the FE database?
I am using collect data via email process to collect data by email, purpose is to update not to add new records but to update. The condition for update is to have data from one table only.
I have 4 tables data from which should be sent by email. These tables are related. I made a query based on tables and query is update-able. When I use this query, wizard does not give option of updating the data but only of adding new records.
I tried to first make a make table from a make table query but that too have the same result.
Any ways to make treat these tables in a single table? Almost all fields except one shall be just to read and one field shall be updated.
I have one database that I am working on and within it there are several Tables. 2 of the tables have similar information on various organisations and I need to query these 2 tables to get a simple mailing list of ALL organisation addresses and the main incumbent there.
Within Access (2007) and in the SQL View window, I have made a simple query to give me a list of all the organisations and incumbents but cannot get it to work correctly. Is there an easy way to get this information out of the 2 tables? I realise that the SQL in SQL View has to be formatted differently. I have also tried the Microsoft Query Wizard but that doesn't work either as it gives in a side by side list which is useless to me.
Hi to all, as you can see I'm brand new in access. I just need some advise on how you can probably do this:
I have a directory with tables for every year scince 1984 to 2004 where the structure is the same, so now I want to have a form where I can put the last name of somebody, so access can pull every table and tell me where did it find a similar result.
I want to create one query from two tables. When I run the query with two table the data sheet is blank. How do I combine two tables so when I run one query all records appear from both tables?
I have a new problem! I have four dbf files imported as tables. Each table has the same fields. One of the Fields in the tables is Parts. What I want to find if possible is the following:
1. I want to see all unique parts in these tables. If table 1, 2, 3, & 4 all have part 1 I only want to see it one time. I guess what I am saying is I really only want to see each part one time even if it is in all 4 tables, 3 tables, 2 tables or 1 table. Can this be done? I hope you can understand this request and thanks for the help!
I have these five tables in a DB. I have a query for each table to append that table. I will run these queries the first of each month and have the tables show the counts. In this case I ran the queries on 11/29 and again on 12/1. I want to show the change in the counts from month to month.
CLIENTS DATE 10 11/01/2005 15 12/01/2005
STATES DATE 15 11/01/2005 15 12/01/2005
EFT DATE 12 11/01/2005 14 12/01/2005
NCP DATE 2 11/01/2005 5 12/01/2005
EMPLOYER DATE 15 11/01/2005 18 12/01/2005
Now I want to create a table query to combine the results from each table and date so that I may create a report from that table. The table should look something like this.
DATE CLIENTS STATES EFT NCP EMPLOYER 11/01/2005101512215 12/01/2005151514518
This is the query I’ve tried with no luck as this query comes up with 32 lines in the table when there should only be 2. SELECT [CLIENT ].DATE, [CLIENT ].[CLIENTS], [STATES].DATE, [STATES].[STATES], [EFT].DATE, [EFT].[ EFT], [ NCP].DATE, [ NCP].[ NCPS], [ EMPLOYER ].DATE, [ EMPLOYER].[ EMPLOYER ] FROM [CLIENT], [STATES], [ EFT], [ NCP], [ EMPLOYER];
Can someone show me how to correct this query to get the results I’m looking for. Thanks
I'm working on a maintenance system and sometimes, machine operators fill in MS Access forms with Machine Number or Location No or BOTH whenever a machine needs repairs.
Now, whenever I generate a report, only those entries containing an Asset No comes out on the report.
What I would like to do is to generate a report that shows primarily the Asset No and in instances where the Asset No is not recorded down, the Location No shows instead.
I have a set of data in one table with another set of data in a seperate table, both tables have been linked so I have a MAX and MIN set of values -this works fine however I now wish to work out the difference ie; MAX - MIN = ? but I now get an error as the data is in 2 different reference tables which are set by an external source so I have to use both tables linked by a common thread, I use the Date - any ideas how I can resolve this issue
I have a query using 2 tables. However the second table is not always required and I notice that if the second table is not used then the info from just the one table is not included in the response. How can I rectify this problem?
I have multiple tables in my access db, the structure of the tables (4 in all) are exactly the same except that the billing dates are for year 2001 to 2004 i.e. separate table for each of the years.
I don't want to copy the information in these 4 tables into 1 table because I have over 2 million rows in each table. However, I want to be able to run 1 query that will provide information from all 4 tables. E.g. filtering for billing dates between 2001 to 2004 for a particular customer.
How do I join the tables together so that I can run a query on all 4 tables at one time.
Hi all, I'm a newbie in access and i'm trying to make a small application in access that will have the following functionality:
- The user of the app can add new 'test flows' which can include 'test cases' and 'actions'.
- 'test cases' can include 'test cases' and 'actions'
- 'actions' are atomic units and include lines of code (text)
- The app should have a small query that can display a report with all the "Fathers" of a specific 'action' or 'test case'.
I need to build this tables somehow and not sure how, espcially because the 'test flow' table can include unknown number of 'test cases' and 'actions'.
Can someone please send me a .mdb file with this requirements implemented inside it and i'll analyze it and learn from it ?
I am trying build what I thought was a super simple data base, but this is driving me crazy.
I have a group of building maintenance manuals (12) each of which is subdivided into sections. I have created a list of all the section headings and respective page numbers and have imported them into a table (tblMASTER ) with these fields:
MasterIndexpkf SectionNumber (unique sequential number 1-311) SectionName PageNumber
I have a second table (tblCROSSREF) with these fields:
The two tables are linked in a one-to-many relationship on the respective MasterIndex fields.
I also have a query (qryMaster) which includes ALL the fields in tblMaster which serves as a lookup to the SectionName field in tblCROSSREF.
What I want to do is to select a section number in tblMaster and enter all the possible cross references in tblCROSSREF by selecting the available section names from qryMaster.
This seems to me to be sooo simple, but I am having a real headache!
My primary problem is that when I use the lookup function in the SectionName field (in tblCROSSREF) it returns not the Section Name, but the Primary Key Field number.
This thing is making me feel like the AFLAC duck. Can anyone give me a clue about where I have gone wrong?
Does anyone know how to use an update query however, rather than update the field with a specific value, the field is updated from another tables value of the same field name?
This is the sql I attempted to use however, when I execute the statement i get a enter parameter value when it gets to the Where statement?
Any advise would be greatly appreciated, I'm lost!
Update PendingPolicies Set PendingPolicies.PolicyStatus = PolicyTable.PolicyStatus Where PendingPolicies.PolicyNumber=PolicyTable.PolicyNum ber----Iknow there appears to be a space here but there is not in my SQL?
There is a mapping table called, lets say tblMappingTable which has the following fields:
Contract0001 - Contract0016 1 - 11 2 - 12 3 - 13
Basically I need to write a query which interrogates all the records PA0001 checks the mapping table and gives me all the records in PA0016 which do not have the expected mapping result.
So based on the above data I would expect it to return only the non-matched data, which will be:
I would probably need to do another query which does the exact same thing but the other way around. It would need to interrogate all the records from PA0016 and using the mapping table check the records in PA0001. In my example above I would get the exact same result, but I suspect with large amounts of data, I would get different results, especially if the number of records were not the same in both tables.
I suspect I would need to write some SQL code or VB code to extract the above.
If one of you kind folk could give me some basic pointers that would be great.
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?
