"Query Is Too Complex" And "System Resource Exceeded"
Dec 22, 2004
These are the two results I get when I try to run or go into design view for the last few queries in a series of queries I've created for an estimating tool for my company. The reason I'm getting it now, is that I had to significantly alter the queries prior to these in the series. I need to alter these as well, but I'm thrown into SQL view, and with the amount of info, I'd be lost without the normal design view. Furthermore, it won't run anyway. I can't reduce the size and maintain a decent representation. Is there anything I can do with Access 2003, or will I have to resort to not doing this at all?
I have Access 2010 and have made a small system that creates a table as a result of an query based on linked tables. The result is approximately 40 records that are grouped in 4 different priorities where each record has a status of green, yellow or red.
By using the timer event I want to loop through 6 different forms starting with the overall view and herafter priority 1 form, priority 2 form and so on. When the last form has been displayed start over again. Loop for ever until stop button has been pushed on the first form.
The timer is set to 15000 on each form, when I open a form the first thing that happens is that I close the previous open form.
After the system has looped 4 times it gets "SYSTEM RESOURCE EXCEEDED".
I have used 3 days on the internet to try to get a solution on my problem with no luck. I have got so far that it must be something with the timer function. Since if I run it manually (open form, close previously, open next form etc) then no issues.
All using access 2010. I've have a query in a database that is given an error: query too complex or system exceeded resources. I've been running this query once a week and all of a sudden; errors. I have changed one unrelated table. I've gone back to an old database and its giving the same errors. database on the server is giving off this error and it's only when I run this particular query.
I have a database of 45 MB. I am running a report from a form. the report is based on a query, which is too long(about 14 unions with join also)
when i am running this on a P4 PC having 256MB RAM it is working.
but when I am running it on P3 PC having 256 MB RAM, is displays an err like System Resource exceeded. nothing is running behind. only the database is opened.
I need to create a database that tracks the usage of a resource on a monthly basis. I have the tables built that will track the contracts, clients, etc. In the contracts table I have a start date and an end date that are tied back to an inventory item.
My question is how can I shows these on a datasheet like this, so that is shows the inventory items and who has what that month.

I set up the tables for the data I need to store, maybe the start/end date won't work.
I'm working on creating a resource allocation table for my small company. Basically, we want to be able to designate a certain number of "man-months" per functional group per month per project. Additionally, this database will hold the billing milestones that are associated with the project and we will track some health indicators to each of them.
For instance, we may have a project that is going to be running from May 15th 2014 to June 5th 2015. Based on an access project template I found, I have created some pretty good quality forms/tables that are working well for project inputs and milestone tracking.
Project Table Lists the Project Name, Project Manager, Priority, Status, Start Date, End Date, and some baseline budget info.
Resource Groups Lists the functional groups (Electrical Engineer (EE), Mechanical Engineer (ME), etc.) There are 9
Milestone Table Project, Title, Priority, Status, Client Billing Amount, Schedule Risk, Technical Risk, Owner, Start Date, Due Date, and some budget lines and descriptions
Alright, So I can't for the life of me figure out how to structure the monthly allocations in a usable table/form. This is what I would like it to look like, similar to the excel document we used to track it in.
How can I create a table that will store all of the data (Project, Resource Group, Month/Year, and Man-months) with inputs from a form that will automatically show the relevant months (between project Start Date and End Date)...
I have our primary web based inventory system that I am exporting to Excel and using this as an import to Access for the main raw data for my database. This being inventory it changes daily so I am updating this table every day. When I try to append the table it ads all the records. I am wanting an easy way to add only the new records/take out the ones that are no longer there. Basically update the table with what is currently there.The only have I have found to do this is by running non-matching queries and update queries.
I have some code which updates an invoice table with transaction numbers. It worked ok until this month when we had to run three months worth of invoices in one go. I recieved a runtime error 3052 "File Sharing Lock Count Exceeded" and Access told me to increase the MaxLocksPerFile registry entry. I thought i'd better check it out a bit first though and found the following on support.microsoft.com
In Microsoft Access 2000, you can take advantage of a feature that allows you to increase the MaxLocksPerFile setting for Microsoft Jet database engine 4.0 by editing the Windows Registry. The default value of this setting is 9500. However, changing this value is not recommended if one of the replicas is located on a Novell Netware server, because the server's maximum record locks per connection is 10000.
The invoice table had about 20k lines but as I am on a netware server i'm not gonna be able to squeeze more than 10k lines out of my recordset so I was wondering if there is any way I can open it without record locking? The table that is being modified is never edited apart from in this one process so there is no risk of complications there.
Here is how I opened the recordset
Set rstInvs = dbs.OpenRecordset("SELECT [InvNumber], [InvNumExt], [TransactionType], [LineNum] FROM [tblInvoices]" _ & "WHERE [LineNum] Is Null ORDER BY [InvNumber], [InvNumExt], [TransactionType]")
I created a report that would generate, among others, a listbox on monthly payments. How do I make it spill-over to the next page when its contents have already exceeded that of a single paper?
I have an Application with several users that share tables located in a Design Master file at a server. The tables are shared in several computers with a Replica of the Design Master in each computer. When we try to synchronize any Replica with the Master Design, it gives back an error message stating that the "Number of blocks of shared files are exceeded" And the message ends stating that I must increase the MaxLocksPerFile in the Register.
Hello , I had incountered with a huge problem in my project and I need your help guys. I have a huge table contains alot of data about many people- I wanted the data will be checked and sent to a query. Here is an example for a little project beacuse I couldn't have the big one. (This example works fine) My big project is pretty the same but after I try to get the query out I get an error that the query is too complex....(It's really too big when you have 20texts to be checked with 9000 fields) If you check the query fields you may see how the OR is getting separted and because every text has OR statement everything is hanged by everything. Someone told me that I can't use query options and mannge it and I should use VB SELECT option - but I can't make it work too. So I can't show you the real example at all beacsue I can't have it to my computer and It will take alot of time to have 9000 different cells ; SO if someone knows what I am talking about and ever encoutered it , I would be really thankful ! (Also - You may see some problems with the OR ("") but I mannged it to work with the BIG project so it doesn't matter) I don't want you to focus the conditions but just the problem itself ...." the query is too complex"...
This one is a pain in the but. I tried everything, but why would it just won't work. It always says the query is to complex. Have included the database, anyone a solution?
I need to perform a query on a database (not designed by me) that is not normalized. In fact it is only one table with numerous fields (many of them Date/Time). I need to query the table based on the date fields only.
Basically the table is used to track when specific functions are completed to determine the time required to perform the individual tasks (accuracy to one day is acceptable) and find the ones which are falling behind. Since several individuals are required to complete each project each step has an average value (based on historical data.)
The following is a short narrative:
1. Step 1 is scheduled for 1/5/05 and the task is not started untill 1/7/05. This is not acceptable. There is a 1 day window. I need to flag this record (via report) if the start date exceeds the schedule date by more than 1 day. If a start date has been entered this record does not need flagged (regardless of the alloted time).
2. Step 2 is based on the amount of time alloted to complete the task once started. If the task takes more than 2 days the project needs to be included in the query for the report. As above, if the date is entered the record is not needed since there is no need to try to determine the when the project will start.
3. Step 3 measures the number of days from the project completion untill the product is sent to the central office. If the time exceeds 2 days the record needs to be included in the dataset. Again, once a date is entered in the received field there is no need to include the record.
There are a couple more steps but they follow the same criteria as the first three.
I have not been able to figure out how to get these requirements entered into the query design view.
The query I'm trying to get is: Who owes me money for the service and How much.
Each car had several treatments in the past and some have missed a payment or I didn't notice and just issued a new order.
I need a query that runs through the entire database, does a summary of all the amount owed to me per Car, and then deducts the total payments made per Car. If the balance is > than Zero,. Show me that car and the bottom line amount.
Hi guys, long time surfer, first time poster here :)
We use a prehistoric Process Plant design software package, and it stores all its information in Oracle 8i.
A report I need to pull takes data from a stack of tables, each with a unique number.
PDTABLE_113 contains a list of models, each model having a unique PARTITION_NO.
Every PARTITION_NO entry has a matching table called PDTABLE_21_XXXX where XXXX is the PARTITION_NO of the model. Each PDTABLE_21_XXXX has a row for every piece of equipment in the relevant model.
PDTABLE_21, for argument sake, has the columns EQUIPMENT_ID, EQUIPMENT_DESCRIPTION, and EQUIPMENT_STATUS.
Is there some way to query the database so I get something that looks kinda like this:
this shows that I can have multiple entries in a day for a particular serial number.
I need to select ONLY ONE serial number and corresponding data for each day (or week).
I tried to format the date to remove the time and then select the distinct date (so 1 record a day for each serial was displayed), this worked. BUT I could not link it successfully to other tables because I had to format the corresponding match date to avoid a type mismatch thus invalidating what i was doing by selecting the distinct record.
Here is the original query i was using that selected a range of dates (which included multiple dates in a single day with a single serial).
SELECT TBLRemoteUnitInfo.TankSize, TBLRemoteUnitInfo.TankName, * FROM TBLRemoteUnitRequests, TBLRemoteUnitInfo WHERE (TBLRemoteUnitRequests.RemoteFeildUnitID = TBLRemoteUnitInfo.RemoteFeildUnitID) AND (TBLRemoteUnitRequests.SerialNumber=:SerialNumber) AND (TBLRemoteUnitRequests.DateReceived BETWEEN :Datestart AND :Dateend) ORDER BY TBLRemoteUnitRequests.UnitRequestID';
how can i take a sample of the range of dates (ie 1 a day/week or month), i assume i need to create a filtered table via query first then query that table.
Its killing me!
if i am being unclear please let me know and ill try to clarify
I have come to a dead end with my query. Any help would be really appreciated.
I have a query which i have written:
SELECT TblBurnleyWwTw.MetricID FROM TblBurnleyWwTw WHERE (((TblBurnleyWwTw.[Data Source])="OMS")) OR (((TblBurnleyWwTw.TAGFunction)="CHP")) GROUP BY TblBurnleyWwTw.MetricID, TblBurnleyWwTw.[Metric Required], TblBurnleyWwTw.CALCULATIONS, TblBurnleyWwTw.PIPointSource, TblBurnleyWwTw.PILoc1, TblBurnleyWwTw.[High Level KPI] HAVING (((TblBurnleyWwTw.MetricID) Like "130*") AND ((TblBurnleyWwTw.[Metric Required])="-1") AND ((TblBurnleyWwTw.PIPointSource)<>"L"));
This retreives all codes relating to what i want. The problem is, I need this data to try and match within another column of calculations E.g. Data retreived from query I have may be 13001, 13002, 13003. What I would like to do with this data is to lookup in a calculations column if any of the above data matches to bring back the metric ID which is realted to it?
Hope i have stated this clearly enough for anyone to understand???
As i say any help or recommednations for a solution would be really appreciated
SELECT [UK Table].[Business Name], [UK Table].[Business Type], [UK Table].Address, [UK Table].City, [UK Table].Country, [UK Table].[Telephone Number], [UK Table].[Website Address], [UK Table].[Email Address] FROM [UK Table] WHERE ((([UK Table].[Business Name]) Like [Forms]![frmNz]![txtBusinessName] & '*' Or [Forms]![frmNz]![txtBusinessName] Is Null) AND (([UK Table].[Business Type]) Like [Forms]![frmNz]![txtBusinessType] & '*' Or [Forms]![frmNz]![txtBusinessType] Is Null) AND (([UK Table].Address) Like [Forms]![frmNz]![txtAddress] & '*' Or [Forms]![frmNz]![txtAddress] Is Null) AND (([UK Table].City) Like [Forms]![frmNz]![txtCity] & '*' Or [Forms]![frmNz]![txtCity] Is Null) AND (([UK Table].Country) Like [Forms]![frmNz]![txtCountry] & '*' Or [Forms]![frmNz]![txtCountry] Is Null) AND (([UK Table].[Telephone Number]) Like [Forms]![frmNz]![txtTelephoneNumber] & '*' Or [Forms]![frmNz]![txtTelephoneNumber] Is Null) AND (([UK Table].[Website Address]) Like [Forms]![frmNz]![txtWebsiteAddress] & '*' Or [Forms]![frmNz]![txtWebsiteAddress] Is Null) AND (([UK Table].[Email Address]) Like [Forms]![frmNz]![txtEmailAddress] & '*' Or [Forms]![frmNz]![txtEmailAddress] Is Null));
What is wrong? I have attached the database. The form frmNz is what I want to work. I should be able to enter company information into at least one field, allowing me to retrieve the specific company data from the UK Table in the subform.
I have three tables called, Clients basic details, Episode and Modality. There are some 56 fields in these tables. Once a month I run a query on these tables. The data is then uploaded to another site via the internet. I have now been asked to collect data into another table called TOPS which has some 23 new fields in it. The problem I have is, they want none of the TOPS data to be on the same line as the Modality Data. For instance, there are 79 fields in the query which must conform to certain parameters before the data can successfully uploaded, the query must show lines of data for all the 79 fields, but if any line has TOPS information the line cannot have Modality information in it and vice versa. I think some of the data that would be collected will be duplicate, i.e. from the episode and clients basic details tables. The query must show all 79 field headings. Any line of Data in the query result that has data from the Modality table and data from the TOPS table can only show the returned data from one of these tables, the values from the other table must be left blank and vice versa. For Instance say From the clients details table we show the clients name, from the episode table we show the number of children he has, from the Modality table we show he has structured intervention, we then must show blank records from the TOPS table. Then on another line the query must pick up the data from the TOPS table, episode table and clients basic details table and leave the Modality table fields blank. A lot of the info from the Clients and episode table will be duplicated but on the different lines.
I am trying to create ranges in data in order to create a graph. I have the following IIf statement that access says is too complex and also Im getting an error saying that it is too long to edit so does anyone have any ideas how to do this with out these problems. I need to get to $25000 $30000 in increments of $1000.
IIf([Actual$/Mile]<1000,"$0 to $1000",IIf([Actual$/Mile]>=1000 AND [Actual$/Mile]<2000,"$1000 to $2000",IIf([Actual$/Mile]>=2000 AND [Actual$/Mile]<3000,"$2000 to $3000",IIf([Actual$/Mile]>=3000 AND [Actual$/Mile]<4000,"$3000 to $4000",IIf([Actual$/Mile]>=4000 AND [Actual$/Mile]<5000,"$4000 to $5000",IIf([Actual$/Mile]>=5000 AND [Actual$/Mile]<6000,"$5000 to $6000",IIf([Actual$/Mile]>=6000 AND [Actual$/Mile]<7000,"$6000 to $7000",IIf([Actual$/Mile]>=7000 AND [Actual$/Mile]<8000,"$7000 to $8000",IIf([Actual$/Mile]>=8000 AND [Actual$/Mile]<9000,"$8000 to $9000",IIf([Actual$/Mile]>=9000 AND [Actual$/Mile]<10000,"$9000 to $10000",IIf([Actual$/Mile]>=11000 AND [Actual$/Mile]<12000,"$11000 to $12000",IIf([Actual$/Mile]>=12000 AND [Actual$/Mile]<13000,"$12000 to $13000",IIf([Actual$/Mile]>=12000 AND [Actual$/Mile]<13000,"$12000 to $13000",IIf([Actual$/Mile]>=13000 AND [Actual$/Mile]<14000,"$13000 to $14000",0 ))))))))))))))
Hello everyone! i hope someone can help me with either: 1. writing a query to get the results needed (will explain below) 2. write VBA to be used in query to get the results needed 3. or change table(s) to be able to obtain the data in all areas to get the results needed.
The result needed: How can I get the result of ONLY when there's an exact match of the combinations and not all combinations of the matches?
I have a GuitarOptionDetails and it's linked (LEFT OUT JOIN) to a ProgramCodes. so the basic result here is displaying correctly. it's showing everything in my GuitarOptionDetails and only where there's matches from the ProgramCodes. Linked on Guitar and Option as these fields are in both sides. The ProgramCodes has the "Code" for the guitar and guitar / option combinations.
Issue, and why I'm seeking help ... i need to somehow change that so it will only show the set of results where the combinations matches.
example here's the "raw" data from ProgramCodes table
GuitarOptionDetails is showing the Codes for ComboID's 2, 3, and 4 because an invoice for AE185 has BOTH 38 and BB. Again, the basic LEFT OUTER JOIN query is showing all the Codes for AE185 where there's 38 or BB.
But instead, i need the result to show only the ComboID 4 Codes and not to repeat the same Codes for the ComboID 4 Codes.
I truly hope I made sense and there's a solution for this. I have no idea how to look it up to see if there's any previous posting for this or something like this, etc ...
I have a query that when I run it normally (just click on it) then it runs fine. (It is a union query, getting it's data from 8 other queries (who has their dependancies)
But when I want to run a report from it, Access gives me an error saying "query is too complex".
I am flattered, but I would prefer access to work than say I write stuff that is too complex for it. :cool:
Any ideas?
I am confused by the fact that it runs when I double click the query, but the report bugs it out.
I need to sort my query in a rather complicated way, and haven't been able to get the examples I've found on here to work.
I have the following fields [Category] [Name] [Page]
Here is what I need. Where [Category] = "Table of Contents" Sort by [Name], Then by [Page] Descending Else Sort by [Name], Then by [Page] Ascending
All records will be queried at the same time, so "Table of Contents" categories will be included in the same query as other records, but need a different sort order. I know this is stupid, but leave it to government to impose some nonsensical rule on you.
I'm hoping somebody out there might be able to point me in the right direction for solving this problem.
Im developing a hire stock control database and have a table that contains all the order reference numbers and in and out dates.
What i am trying to do is structure a query that searches for all instances of a shipping out/in date that fall within date values already stored in the source table.
e.g. Table values
Out .................In 1/11/05............10/11/05 3/11/05............5/11/05
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.
