Hi, I need help in creating a parameterized query.
I need to show only certain fields depending on the value of the parameters.
For example, I have a table with fields: ID, Name, Phone Number, Address, DOB.
The parameter can only be value of A, B or C.
If the user input A as the parameter in the query, only field ID, and Name will be shown
If the user input B as the parameter in the query, field ID, Name and Phone Number will be shown.
etc.
Is there any way to do this, rather than to separate the query into 3 queries for each of the parameters? Thank you.
I want to be able to have multiple parameter queries, but the user needs to have the option of entering a parameter or not limiting the output at all. How do I let the user choose "all", or what do they type in so that nothing is excluded?
i want to open a recordset, in its 'where' clause i want to pass the value which i entered in Form textbox? is this possible ?
COde: rs.open "select * from table1 where id=form.textbox",con
i have written general code above. when i run my application ..it gives error "Control which is focus can only be reference" how can i pass my value to select query ?
I have form with a button on it that launches a parameter-based Select query (which served as the source for a report). I didn't have any validation measure in place, so if the User supplied a bogus value, a blank report was generated. While not technically an error, it would seem more polished to generate a warning message if the User supplies a bad query value and prompt them to re-enter.
Having read other posts along these lines, I've added an unbound text box to the form which the User fills in first before clicking the button. When the button is clicked, it executes code that uses the DCount function to make sure the text box value is in the source table, and if it is then it runs the parameter-based Select query. My question is how to pass the value in the text box to the query as a parameter. Below is a sanitized version of the code that I've generated so far.
Private Sub SingleItemRptB_Click() If DCount("[FieldName]", "[Table]", "[FieldName]=[TextBoxValue]") = 0 Then MsgBox "Item not in database. Please check value and re-enter." Else DoCmd.OpenQuery "SingleItemQ", acViewNormal, acReadOnly End If End Sub
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.
I have a query with multiple fields that is being run off of 3 parameters (linked for selection in a form). The problem is, I wanted to enable a select all feature, so I included a "Or ... Is Null" part in my criteria section, so that when nothing is selected, the query/report returns all records.
Okay so the problem is whenever I run the query with nothing selected for the parameter and then return to design view for the query, a new field has been created in the query design, titled with the expression I use to pull the parameter value from the form. This is frustrating because then that is causing errors in another report I run that pulls values from that query.
Basically, I have a database table that is maintained every week. It is about e-mail account licenses for Office 365.
Each column represents a week of license data for every mailbox account which is about 10 000 plus users with the date as the field headers( something like "License information as of 06122013").
Basically, I have created 52 queries based on the license type I require to be calculated & I have a form created to control it. However, right now it is all output only as I have yet to create any user parameter to specify on any of the queries about the date I want
As I am currently unsure how to specify all the queries to use one field date header which I want the user to specify via drop down list in order to calculate all the licenses on this specific date.
For example, if I want to see the license information for 06/11/2013, I would choose "License as of 06112013" & it would then run all the queries based on the header specified earlier & output that information on the form.
Right now the queries are all configured as the "Select" type.
I've made a form with list boxes on, the user's selections from which are taken as parameters for a query, created by VBA code.
I want to add a final list box to the form from which the user can select which of the available fields they want to see in the query output (i.e. has the same effect as checking/unchecking the "Show" checkbox for each field on the standard query design grid).
I have written the following code to try and do this, but it isn't working. I'm very new to VBA and wonder if anyone can help me out by showing me what's wrong?
'Build Field List If Me!lstFieldList.ItemsSelected.Count > 0 Then For Each varItem In Me!lstFieldList.ItemsSelected strFieldList = strFieldList & "[" & Me!lstFieldList.ItemData(varItem) & "], " Next varItem strFieldList = Left(strCriteria, Len(strCriteria) - 2) Else strFieldList = "'*'" End If
Running the above gives an error, and the section under "'Create Query String" is highlighted in debug mode so I guess the error must lie there? Either that, or the earlier part where strFieldList is being create is generating something which strSQL cannot interpret.
Is it possible to have the user select which field is added to the query through a parameter? In my query I have a table where each record has a part number and has sales number for each month. When the user runs the query I want them to be able to select which month is returned.
My table basically looks like this:
PartNumber,Jan,Feb,Mar,Apr,May etc. 01PartNumber,15,20,30,25,28 etc. 02PartNumber,12,14,12,16,20 etc
I want the user to enter "Mar" when prompted and return the parts numbers with values from "Mar".
Is there a way to select a query field based on conditions? There is a table at work that I need to use for my reporting in which the field names are the months of the year. Since my report is monthly for that specific month only, I have to change my field in the query every single month. I would like to be able to put in some type of code that will automatically select the proper month field.
I have written code to write a query with parameters set from selections made in a multiselect list box on a form.
I now want to add a check box for possible fields to include in the query and put these on the bottom of my form to allow users to select which fields they want to be displayed in the query result.
Firstly, I'm an ex-fulltime access developer who has found himself doing access work again 6 years later; I can't actually believe how much I've forgotten :s
Anyway, I've done a search and havn't found anything that can help me so wondered if anyone could give some advice.
I have an access form with 3 combo boxes and a checkbox next to each of them. these are accessed using a query with 3 iif statements in it stating; (iif checkbox is null, "*", combo_box_value). the whole query looks like this
SELECT Customers.* FROM Customers WHERE (((Customers.Partner)=IIf(Forms!frm_rpt_main!check _partner Is Null,"*",Forms!frm_rpt_main!partner)) AND ((Customers.[Type Business])=IIf(Forms!frm_rpt_main!check_type Is Null,"*",Forms!frm_rpt_main!type)) AND ((Customers.[Year End Month])=IIf(Forms!frm_rpt_main!check_month Is Null,"*",Forms!frm_rpt_main!month)));
However, the query only seems to want to pull data from all 3 combo boxes
My issue is that if a checkbox is not ticked, I want the values to be ignored for all 3 combo's.
I've attached a copy of the mdb file as my description probably doesnt make any sense, the specific query is "qry_select_month_partner_type_wname_frm_rpt"
I have a table with about 3800 records and about 150 fields. It also has 4 tables with related data that each have only one field. I am going to create a query to base my from from. Should I just take the star * and get all the fields for each table or should i manually specify them. There are only about 5 fields out of the 150 that I dont need and I need to see the rest.
I have two tables linked together with one-one relationship with primary key. The form has been created using a select query using these two tables. total fields at present is 253(table1=25 fields, Table2=228 fields Total = 253 fields)
Now my problem is I have to add 20 fields more to the above. so the total fields now is 273 fields but it is not accepting and giving the error as "Too many keys defined 3190".
I am trying to create a select query on "ApprovedDate" where no approval is recorded. IsNull returns an expected type mismatch. Any ideas? Regards:confused:
I want to create form with 10 checkbox, each checkbox is linked to a field "name, Address, TelephoneNumber, BuissinessName" I would like to know if it is possible for the user to check the box and then the field will show in query. if only name is check then only name will show in the query.
I have tried using [Forms]![Formname]![CheckboxName] as criteria but this didn't work it when I had more then one checkbox and when the one check box was not checked nothing showed in the forms.
I am fairly new to Access and I would like to create a form to allow users to create their own query. I would like to allow users to select multiple fields (perhaps with checkboxes?) from all possible fields in a table to return either all data from that field or narrow their search by inputting certain criteria or choosing from a drop down into a text box. Is this possible in Access and any detailed specifics on how to achieve this?
I have a database with lists clients across the UK. I have now been asked to provide options where users can select clients grouped by geopraphical area e.g say clients in Scotland.
I can of course do this but having numerous identical forms where the source queries have different parameters depending on the regions required.
The only problem with this is that I would need numerous forms and queries. Additionally, there are options on the form to navigate to linked forms which would all need to be unique.
What I would like to have options on my main (Switchboard Type) Introduction Form to select the region. The code on the relevent command button would include the parameter. I would therefore not require the additional forms.
The open form codes includes:
Dim stDocName As String Dim stLinkCriteria As String
I feel i need something after "frmClients" such as qryClients.ClientArea = "Not Scotland". Various attempts to incorporate something has created errors.
I am creating an absenteeism database which has the following tables:
tblEmp - PK - auto number, EmpId, First Name, Last name tblFunction - PK - FID (autonumber) has departments tblTL - PK TLID (autonumber) has list of team leaders tblRelated - pK - Id (auto), EmpId, TLID, FId as long integeres tblCodes - CodeId (auto), list of absenteeism codes like late, mia, etc EmpLeave - pk - autonumber, empid, codeid, hours, date of absenteeism
I have a Qry_Master which just joins all the information together as it gets updated on a monthly basis
Now, I am trying to create a form where the user has option to select one or more tls and one or more codes and when they hit the button, it should come up with all emps that have those codes and report to the team leader selected.
In my form, I have made both my list boxes as multiselect and i have Qry_frm that is a parameter query but when i run the button nothing happens and i cant seem to figure it out. I have attached the sample database to this thread.
I have a form whose data source is a select query, q3, that is built from 2 other select queries. I'll call them q1, q2, and q3. q1 is a parameter query where I enter a "Cutoff Date" that the 3 queries manipulte and generate the desired results that appear in the form. The problem is that I don't know how to capture the parameter "Cutoff Date" from q1 to display on the form.
Is there a way to have one parameter in a query effect multiple fields?I have a table that details service calls on our equipment. There are columns in that table for each part of the equipment that get marked, depending on what needed serviced (i.e. software, printer, keypad, monitor, etc). I would like to be able to run a query that will show all the service calls where one part of the equipment was serviced multiple times without have to enter multiple parameters or write a union query (there would need to be 11 unions or 11 parameters for each part to be captured). For example, I would want to know how many pieces of equipment had 3 or more service calls on their software. I want to run the query without having to say that I don't care how many service calls were performed on the printer, monitor, or keypad. I would like to be able to say "Software >3" and have the query run on that information.
I have used the Data tab on a property sheet for a field in a report to build this expression (using expression builder) as the control source "=IIf([AllSchoolContacts].[Email]>" ",[AllSchoolContacts]![Email],[EmailAddress])" When I view the report I get the Enter Parameter Value dialog labelled AllSchoolContacts
I have added the fields to the expression using the expression builder the sources for the report are a table and a query in the REPORT.
The tables are AllSchoolContacts and Non Metro Query.
What I am trying to do is to have the record line show the email address for the organisation if the email address field in the AllSchoolContacts is blank.
I am running an Access 2003 report that outputs to an Excel Spreadsheet The parameter query has two paramerters First Date and Last Date. The report runs from an Button OnClick event. I need to include the two dates in the 'name' of the spreadsheet as below
Private Sub btn_report_between_dates_Click() DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputQuery, "qry_all_calls_between_dates", acFormatXLS, "Calls By Between Dates " First Date" and " Last Date" - Date Report Run " & Format(Date, "dd-mm-yyyy") & ".xls", True End Sub
(btw I know it is preferable to use the TransferSpreadsheet method, but I've not got around to that way yet)
