Hi I Like to know how to aquire the correct results:
Table:
ID - Personalinfo - location - records - date
102 - Dave Blogs - Bristol - Queen - 12.12.03
103 - Brian Smith - Plymouth - SKA - 12.11.03
102 - Dave Blogs - Bristol - Madona - 12.12.03
By selecting the ID I want to show all listings for that ID.
ie:
102
Dave Blogs
Bristol
Queen 12.12.03
Madona 12.12.03
Im going round in circles
Access 2010. I've had to learn it at work because our DBA was let go and I was the only one willing to give it a go. Read a book or two and picked up some stuff on the internet.
Here's my problem:
I have a simple table -Employee with 4 fields. FirstName, LastName, Office and JobTitle. I have form called Form1 that has 3 control fields cboJobTitle (a combo box that is populated by a query that finds all the unique values of that field in the Employee table), cboOffice (same as above) and txtName (a text box to allow user input) that are used as the criteria for a multi-field query triggered by a button at the bottom of the form. The idea being that you could do a search using this form to find all the employees in one office or all the accountants in one office, or any other combination.
The main search query has the following criteria for each field -
Like [forms]![Form1]![cboOffice] & "*"
Like [forms]![Form1]![cboJobTitle] & "*"
Like [forms]![Form1]![txtName] & "*"
It works great...until I enter a record where one of those fields may be null, such as if I leave the JobTitle blank.
If I have two employees in an office in one city and then do a search for all the employees in that office, it only returns one record and ignores the one that has the null value in the JobTitle field.
I have spent the last couple of days trying to figure out how to make this work.
I have three tables.
tblIntakeMain
[IntakeMainID]
tblIncidentDetails
[IncidentdeatailsID]
tblPersonnel
[PersonnelID]
On the main form I use subforms to link tblIncidentDetails and tblPersonnel to tblIntakeMain. Both subforms can, and do, have many entries. This all works fine. What is not working is the search form I am using.
I am using Gromits most excellent Search Form. The problem is when I create a query, qSearch, to bring together the three tables I get a multiple records which makes the searches very confusing and near useless. Is there anyway around this? Is there something I am missing? Is there another search method I could use that would work in a similar way as Gromits? Please help before the Prozac runs out and I lose my mind--what little it left.
i have a form with a control for "repair type" and a subform that has a query that searches a table holding vehicle repair records. on the form the user can enter up to 5 repair types, [repair1], [repair2], etc.. Then the control on the form holds each type of repair to search by. Since the user could use one or all five repair fields and put repair types likes brakes in field one on one record and field 5 on another record, how do i search to just pull out those records that have the specified search criteria?
If i put in [form]![control] in each of the 5 criteria in the query it comes back with no records, because it it looking for that type in every repair field rather than once between the five fields?
I have two fields in a table that have multiple values. Example:
Field A:
CT, CA, PA
Field B:
CT, CA
I want to compare the two fields and indicate that there is a match because in this example CT and CA are in both fields. I would like to create a function. I'm not sure if I would have to use something with like or create a loop.
I have a subform query which includes EventName, Date, and Tags. Tags is a multivalued field.
What I need to do is allow people to filter this subform using the inbuilt filter, and then use the filtered data to populate a graph.
I am doing this by taking the Filter property from the form and then using VBA to build an SQL statement with the right data, and using that on the graph. It works fine when people filter on the EventName and Date fields.
However, when someone filters the Tags field, it fails. The filter property gets set to something along the lines of
([Lookup_Tags].[TagName]="whatevertagtheypick")
This syntax seems not to be supported when I put it into the SQL statement.
Hi everyone. Apologies if this has come up before, but the search terms I've tried here and on google keep turning up the wrong information.
At work I manage a large database with many tables. It stores data for participants in a research study. Each table stores the data for a different test, so one participant may have multiple records. Primary keys for these tables are defined by a combination of the participant and date of test fields. (Everything is dependent upon a table that stores the static info for participants, so the database is normalized.)
I want to be able to make a table that lists target participants and dates, and then create a query that looks at this table and pulls all the available data from various tables for those individuals that was recorded within one year of the target dates.
I've successfully made queries that meet these criteria while pulling data from only one table. The problem I'm having is that when I try to pull from multiple tables, each with it's own date field that needs to be used as a criterion, I end up excluding almost all the data, because most of the target participants do not have all the requested data within the target dates.
I've tried being inclusive with my criteria (using ORs), but then I end up with tons of data that I don't want and I need to filter through it, which defeats the purpose of the query.
Any advice on handling this issue, or do I basically just need to create a separate query for each table?
I'm sorry if this is too vague, but it's illegal for me to upload any of my own dataset. I could probably come up with an example if it's helpful, though.
Thanks!
I'm new to access, and have discovered its easy to write large queries by breaking them up into smaller queries and having each subsequent query reference the one before it. My problem now is that I want to combine these queries into a single query, so as to make it easier for anyone who comes after me to edit/understand what was done. I can't seem to find a good explanation of how to do this, but it seems like there should be a way.
View 1 Replies View RelatedWorking on a sales guest registration database and need a some assistance with a query for my report. I have the following fields in the table:
Communities
RepName
Date1stVisit
MoveTime
I have created a query which works without a problem. I have also created a dialog form to use with a report that I've created. Everything works ok if I fill in all the boxes on my form with data but in some instances they want reports that are not filtered all the way down. On my form I have an unbound combo box for each of the fields above. I've tried several of the suggestions found here but cannot get it to work completely. The last thing I tried was the following criteria for each field I want to filter on:
like [forms]![repdialog]![communities]& "*" or is null
like [forms]![repdialog]![repname]& "*" or is null
>= [forms]![repdialog]![datebeg] and <= [forms]![repdialog]![dateend]
like [forms]![repdialog]![movetime]& "*" or is null
This sort of works but I must be missing something because it gives me too much data. For instance if a just wanted to fill in the REPNAME box on the form it should give me every record that has that name in it but I get more that that - I think because of the is null comments. Any one help me correct this?
Thanks,

I have a query that includes 4 different tables. It only shows info for the Sales Orders that have information in all four tables.
Is there a way to get it to show any information available? For instance, if it only has info in two of those tables, it would show that info and the fields for the other two tables would be blank?
I have a nine-table database about the people in a certain no-longer-existing East European village. So it revolves around a main table, called PersonLOG, of people who used to live there, each with a unique ID#.
There is another table that list facts about the people: PersonFACTS. This table has, among other fields, three fields for three types of sources. One is called SubmitterID; this is the code for a person who submitted a testimony page attesting to that persons' death in the Holocaust. There is also a text field that a particular "factoid" can be typed into. There may be many fact records about any individual. So there is a one-to-many rel. between the PersonLOG and PersonFACTS.
There is a 3rd table called MAIN, that lists the "vital" information about most of the individuals. It includes one yes/no field indicating whether they died in the Holocaust.
I am trying to create a query that would list only those Persons for whom there 1)is no Submitter and 2)Died in the Holocaust. This requires that all of the records in PersonFACTS pertaining to a given individual be compared, looking for the ABSENCE of a FACT record for that person that has a submitter attribution, and then comparing to "and"-ing that with the yes/no field described. I can't see a way to do that.
My apologies if this question is too complicated.
Thanks!:confused:
I have a query which calculates Lagtime: which is the difference between the audit date and the current date.
Lagtime: DateDiff("d",[Auditdate],[Date]) and the criteria is >30
this works fine and shows the reports that are over 30 days overdue.
Now I need: There are 2 fields (both are y/no) Minor and Major. Minor need to be answered >30 and Majors with in >7,
how would I write the expression show me Lagtime if over 30 days for a minor and 7 days for a major.
I have a database... 1 table...40 fields..
I currently have a query set up as a basic a LIKE search for each field and I have to do 40 each time..
Is there a way of being able to do 1 query and have it search all 40 fields?
So my field headings are
Part No
Description
barcode..
Album name
Singer/Group
and so on...
I since some of the albums are compliations I require to search all the fields...
Any ideas?
I'm not quite sure on how to go about this query.:confused: What I need to know is if a certain patient has had an immunization or not. I need one query to show the patients who have had an immunization and another to show the ones who have not had the immunization.
I have two tables.
Appointments
Date_of_Service
Patient_Name
Chart_ID
Immunizations
Patient_Name
Immunization_Date
Chart_ID
They are joined on Chart_ID.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! :)
i need to know how to get the multi value from list box in my form to be used in a query the list box worked great when it was not multi value
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am new to access forms. I am trying to use the 2 checkboxs for my make table query.
Future cost checkbox and marginal cost checkbox.
If future cost is checked, then I want 00 as criteria for the field cost type in the query, if marginal is checked then 01. If both checked, then I want both.
Seems like a iif statement is not working in my query. I am trying to create an event now but I do not understand the VB codes.
I have a query set up which needs to have different criteria at run time depending on values selected by the user. If no option is specified, I need to pick up all records with 'Nulls' in them else, if date is specified by user, I need to pick up all records with date > than specified date. The query is able to pick up the date value from an unbound text box in the form. I used the same field in the form and populated "Is Null" in the field and it does not work. How do I pass this as a paramater to the query from the form?
Is there a way around without setting up 2 sets of queries and reports?
Thanks,Priya :mad: :confused:
Hi, I new to access and I just started using it for a group project in one of my classes. We are supposed to make a database for our "business" so we decided to pick a small independent movie theater.
After some trouble we finally figured out that we had to link the tables with some relation ships. Our basic tables are:
"Distributors" -relationship-distribributorID-"Ticket Sales"
"Employee Information" -relationship-TitleID- "Position Information"
"Inventory"
So I made a query that would get the revenue for each product sold in the inventory by multiplying the price and the amount sold.
I was wondering if it would be possible to create a query that would total all the revenue and all the ticket sales and divide them to create a per-person spending ratio.
You guys are awsome!
Is there anyway to use Like in queries where the user could type in more than one word?
I have a text box (search title), on a form (Search).
On after update the text box, opens a query.
The criteria in the query for the Title field is:
Like "*" & [Forms]![Search]![search title] & "*"
this works great for one word or phrase.
I would like the user to be able to type in 2 words, and have the query find all the records where the first word is in the Title, and where the second word is in the Title. And so on with 3 words or more.
Dear All,
I am just starting out in Access Development. I have a database that runs a logistics department. This was working fine until the users wanted a little more tweaking.
The report prints out the vehicles with all corresponding drops. This comes out all on sheet.
Is there a way that I can create a form to filter the report via a multi select listbox and print each drop selected on a seperate sheet of paper.
I am using Access 2003
Many thanks for any help or source code given
I currently have a database of customer information and form set up with a MultiList box based on the regions those companies are based. You select the region(s) you require from the list box, click a button and it runs a query.
However I now want to be able to filter the results further using a combo box with business sectors in also.
The code used for the multilist box is as follows (I don't totally understand all the code if I'm honest, but it works )
Private Sub Command2_Click()
Const cstrQuery As String = "CAMPQRY"
Dim strNames As String
Dim strSelect As String
Dim StrWhere As String
Dim varItm As Variant
[Code] ....
I have been working with Access for some time managing some databases for my company. But now I have some problems making the database easier to use by automatically creating a Query based on different criterias.The code looks like this:
Sub Multi_value()
'Definitions
Dim strSQL As String
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim qdf As DAO.QueryDef
Set db = Application.CurrentDb
[code]....
The problem is that the "Business Field.Value" is inserted into the Query-criteria with brackets which for some reason are not supposed to be there when I use the .Value-parameter instead of the "Business Field"-parameter.
I created a form that has 3 multiple drop-down selections that is supposed to select records from [TableName_1] based on those selections. I initially created the query using the query designer with actual "hard coded" selections to make sure it worked. When it gave me the expected records, I changed the criteria from the "hard coded" option to the input form's control reference [Forms]![FormName]![ComboName]. I did this one at a time and tested after each change.
After the first change, I got exactly what I expected.
After the second change, it seemed okay. (note: I put the criteria on the first criteria line in the query designer, not on the second line)
After the third change, I get the dreaded: The expression is typed incorrectly or is too complex to be evaluated....
Here is the SQL:
SELECT M_Lending_Institution.InstitutionName, M_Lending_Institution.GeoRegionID, M_Lending_Institution.SpecialtyID, M_Lending_Institution.SBA
FROM (SELECT M_Lending_Institution.InstitutionName, M_Lending_Institution.GeoRegionID, M_Lending_Institution.SpecialtyID, M_Lending_Institution.SBA FROM M_Lending_Institution) AS LenderSearchQuery
WHERE (((LenderSearchQuery.GeoRegionID.Value)=[Forms]![LoanSearch]![CmbPrefGeo]) AND ((LenderSearchQuery.SpecialtyID)=[Forms]![LoanSearch]![CmbSpecialtyArea]) AND ((LenderSearchQuery.SBA)=[Forms]![LoanSearch]![CmbSBA]));
And once this is sorted out, yes I want to be able to allow for all records to be returned if any of those fields is NULL. I've read a LOT of posts around this subject, but I can't seem to find anything that answers my question without jumping into advanced VBA code.
Morning - I have been searching a bit but to no avail. I have a query (qryTopTenList) set up in a database that selects the Top Ten "Classes" from a table with a key field of "insclass".
I have a multi select list box (LstInsClass) that allows end users to select multiple insurance classes. What I would like to do is set up a standard button that when clicked, will loop through all of the insclass in the query "qryTopTenList" and then select those same insurance classes in my multi select list box. So the end result is that 10 records in the List Box would be selected.
This is helpful b/c it prevents the need to go through the entire list box to select the top ten classes.
Thx in advance for any insight. I appreciate it.

i have table on sharepoint which i can not link to my access database so i have to import it. table on sharepoint is same as in access and i need table from sharepoint updated with my access. unfortunately this table has multi valued fields. when i import table from sharepoint it, the table gets renamed so if the original table is tablea the imported table becomes tablea1. im trying to update my table in access but then i get error "An INSERT INTO query cannot contain multi-valued field." if i remove multi valued fields from query, the query is working fine. how i can get the values into my table in access?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm really new to Access and using Office 2007. Comfortable with SQL but have no idea about VBA. How do I get the form to query multi-selections? For example if you download the attachment here and refer to "Form1", let's say the user multiselects BK and McD's for Vendor, burger for Food, and Coke for Beverage. It should be spitting out 3 records but instead spat out an empty table. I tied my last query "query2" with "Form1" to make them work hand-in-hand which filters the master table "Fast Food". Would I need to tweak the syntax seen in the "Criteria:" cells of "query2" to make them read in multiselections?
