I have a parameter query with 5 possible user entries.
The criteria for all my fields is set up as follows:
Criteria: IIf(IsNull([Enter County]), "", [Enter County])
Or: Like "*" & [Enter County] & "*"
If the user enters something for 2 or more parameters it seems to work, but if they just enter a county, for example,, it gives an error message about the expression being too complex.
Any suggestions.
Thanks.
I have this code of a command button, which would allow me to generate the result of the SQL. I think the code is wrong... Can someone help? I guess something wrong with the bracket...
strSQL = " SELECT NewsClips.RecordNumber, NewsClips.IssueDate, NewsClips.Title_Eng, NewsClips.Titile_Chi, NewsClips.NewsSource, NewsClips.[1CategoryMain], NewsClips.[1Sub-Category], NewsClips.[2CategoryMain], NewsClips.[2Sub-Category], NewsClips.hyperlink, NewsClips.FirstTwoPara, NewsClips.Notes, NewsClips.attachment FROM NewsClips " & _
"WHERE (NewsClips.[NewsSource] " & strNewsSource & _
strNewsSourceCondition & "NewsClips.[1CategoryMain] " & str1MainCate & ")" _
str2MainCateCondition & "(" "NewsClips.[NewsSource]" & strNewsSource & _
strNewsSourceCOndition & "NewsClips.[2CategoryMain] " & str2MainCate & ")" ";"
Indeed, I try to modify the SQL that works in a test query (as I want to know what went wrong with my code): the changes would be replace OR to a toggle option.
SELECT NewsClips.IssueDate, NewsClips.Title_Eng, NewsClips.Titile_Chi, NewsClips.NewsSource, NewsClips.[1CategoryMain], NewsClips.[1Sub-Category], NewsClips.[2CategoryMain], NewsClips.[2Sub-Category], NewsClips.hyperlink, NewsClips.FirstTwoPara, NewsClips.Notes, NewsClips.attachment
FROM NewsClips
WHERE (((NewsClips.NewsSource)=[Which News Source]) OR ((NewsClips.[1CategoryMain])=[Which Category?])) OR (((NewsClips.NewsSource)=[Which News Source]) OR ((NewsClips.[2CategoryMain])=[Which Category?]))
ORDER BY NewsClips.IssueDate DESC;
Your help will be greatly appericated.
Guys I need your help/Advice...
In my Access Database I have a query (lets say qry1) and in this query i have 2 fields for start and end date, which is provided by 2 Get functions.
also i have qry2 based on qry1
then qry3 based on qry2
and finally qry4(using sql in code) based on qry3, and non of these 3 queries have the start and end date fields.
now here is the problem: I am trying to set the criteria in qry4 and then open a record set on this query(qry4) to use the data that it pulls out...
strsql = ""
strsql = "SELECT Sum AS AREA_TOTAL " _
& "FROM qry3 " _
& "WHERE ENERGY_AREA like '" & Area & "';"
Set MyDB = CurrentDb
Set rst = MyDB.OpenRecordset(strsql)
but when the last line is executed I get this error message:
Runtime Error '3061':
Too few parameters, expected 2.
i also tried doing this:
strsql = ""
strsql = "SELECT Sum AS AREA_TOTAL " _
& "FROM qry3 " _
& "WHERE ENERGY_AREA like '" & Area & "';"
Set MyDB = CurrentDb
MyDB.QueryDefs("qry4").sql = strsql
Set rst = MyDB.OpenRecordset("qry4")
but when the last line is executed it gives me an error message saying that the query does not exist or the name is not spelled correctly. (Ps. I have created the query and the criteria does update once the Select statement is run in the code!)
again the reason for this is that the query has not been populated as the main query (qry1) needs 'strat date' and 'end date'!
Is there anyway I can pass these 2 parameters to qry4 directly using code? If there is a way then this will definitly work as i tried opening the query manually in the Query window and after I input the 2 dates in the input box the query ran successfully!
I would appreciate any help/suggestion guys, I need to sort this out quickly as i have a deadline... Cheers
I’ve the following query definition “selOrders”
PARAMETERS [DateFrom] DateTime, [DateTo] DateTime;
SELECT * FROM Orders WHERE OrderDate BETWEEN [DateFrom] AND [DateTo]
I want to open this query as a DAO.Recordset but have problems to assign values to the parameters. I tried different possibilities but invain. My latest try was as follows:
Dim QryDef As QueryDef
Dim Date1, Date2 As Date
Dim Orders As DAO.Recordset
Set QryDef = CurrentDb.QueryDefs("selOrders")
QryDef.Parameters("DateFrom") = Date1
QryDef.Parameters("DateTo") = Date2
Set Orders = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("selOrders")
During execution error 3061 (Too few parameters, expected: 2) occurs.
Hey,
I am trying to enter a user-defined parameter in a CrossTab query with little luck. It works fine if I enter the code already defined as in: >= #12/06/2006# but when I enter the code for a user-defined / input such as: >= [Enter date:], or if I try to redirect to a textbox on the active Form such as: >=[Me]![dfrom.Value] I get the error "Invalid field or Expression), although this syntax / code works fine if I do this in a normal query.
Any suggestions?
Kind regards, Adam.
I have created a form with multi-select list boxes, behind which is the following code to transform the users' selections into query parameters.
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim qdf As DAO.QueryDef
Dim varItem As Variant
Dim strCriteria As String
Dim strSQL As String
Set db = CurrentDb()
Set qdf = db.QueryDefs("Test")
If Me!lstAB.ItemsSelected.Count > 0 Then
For Each varItem In Me!lstAB.ItemsSelected
strCriteria = strCriteria & "Centres.[Area Board] = " & Chr(34) _
& Me!lstAB.ItemData(varItem) & Chr(34) & "OR "
Next varItem
strCriteria = Left(strCriteria, Len(strCriteria) - 3)
Else
strCriteria = "Centres.[Area Board] Like '*'"
End If
strSQL = "SELECT * FROM Centres " & _
"Where " & strCriteria & ";"
qdf.SQL = strSQL
DoCmd.OpenQuery "Test"
Set db = Nothing
Set qdf = Nothing
End Sub
I would like to allow the user to set, on the same form, which field they want the resultant data to be sorted by, preferably by having a tick box alongside each list box, which sets that field as the sort field. The form will obviously need to allow only one of these tick boxes to be selected.
Can anyone advise me on how to modify the above code to make this possible?
Thanks,
Gary
Hey guys, I have a simple design question I hope someone can help me with. I have little to no experience with Access, but I know enough to get around. Anyways, I'm working as an extern for a rock band. One of my assignments is to create a publicity contact database. I have all my forms and tables set up but I'm having some trouble creating my query. There are about 10 fields in the contact table. I want the user to be able to search any one of those 10 fields OR any combination of them. Is there a way to do this with only one query, where it willl prompt the user for only the fields they have selected to search?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a query that pulls information from two tables. Some of the fields that are being queried share the same name in the tables, [Reimbursed_Amount] and [Cancel_Fee] specifically. In Design View I have specified that I only want the query to pull these fields from the Event Information table. An error occurs when I try to run it, saying that I need to define which table the field is from in the SQL code.
But then after I added clarification in the SQL, when I run the query it now prompts for a parameter for each of these fields. Why is this happening? I leave it blank, so a parameter has no impact on the query. How can I stop this?
Here's the SQL, after I added the table clarification:
Code:
SELECT (Sum(nz([Program_Cost])+nz([Millage_Fee])+nz([Auditorium_Cost])+nz([Cancel_Fee].[Event Information])-nz([Reimbursed_Amount].[Event Information]))) AS Total_Cost, [Shared Billing Information].Paid, [Shared Billing Information].Shared_Billing_ID, [Event Information].Shared_Billing_ID
FROM [Shared Billing Information] RIGHT JOIN [Event Information] ON [Shared Billing Information].Shared_Billing_ID = [Event Information].Shared_Billing_ID
[Code] ....
I have a report and export function which is based on date parameters. The field name called "date". However, I added a new field called "followup-date" because we would like to track customers that are returning back. Now, my problem is when I go to Export by date parameters or generate the report by certain date eg. July1st to July 28th, it only pulls up the record based on DATE field.
Is it possible for the date parameters to look up july1st to july 28th under date field as well as followup-date and pull up those records that are meet the date parameters? The reason I have to do this is because some customers do not come back for followup so I have to look under 'date' field too. While some customers can have more than one followup.
I am trying to run the below union query, but it keeps asking for FRGHT_BL!FB_CREAT_DTM as a parameter. I want it to only ask for the Start Date and End Date once.
SELECT * FROM qLOC_ID WHERE(((FRGHT_BL!FB_CREAT_DTM) Between [Enter Start Date] And [Enter End Date])) UNION SELECT * FROM qLOC_ID2 WHERE(((FRGHT_BL!FB_CREAT_DTM) Between [Enter Start Date] And [Enter End Date])) UNION Select * From qLOC_ID3 WHERE(((FRGHT_BL!FB_CREAT_DTM) Between [Enter Start Date] And [Enter End Date]));
Greetings,
I am trying to write a parameter query ... I have multiple fields the users *could* search, but they may want to search only one, and I am having a struggle figuring this out.
Ex. fields to search are Gender, Age, Date, etc., and I have created a parameter query that includes parameters for each of these fields. However, if I want to see all the females, thus leaving the other two parameters blank, I have no records in my result set. Clearly, I am doing something wrong -- I have searched the forum extensively before posting.
Thanks in advance, I am sure I am being simple and missing somethign....
Hi There,
I am trying to get a query to pull dates from a form to use as limiting parameters for a report. One of my forms has the user enter a range of dates into two text boxes (a from-date in one box and a to-date in another) as the range of dates they want to pull information from a table via the query. These dates are also used in the Title header of the report that is generated from the query information.
How can I get the query to use these dates in the text boxes, rather than having to use the "between / and" command on the criteria line of the query design?
If I just have parameter windows pop up and have the user enter the dates there, I can't use those dates for the report, or can I? Any help would be appreciated. Maybe I haven't explained this properly, if so, I'll try again if I've just confused you.
Hello..
I have a query that has multipal parameters for that query. I want to be able to set it up so that the person doesn't have to use all the parameters.. IE then can use just the dates, or just the test type etc...
Here is the sql that I am currently using:
SELECT tblApplicant.ApplicantID, tblApplicant.ApplicantLName, tblApplicant.ApplicantFName, tblApplicant.LastFour, tblApplicant.TestDate, tblApplicant.JacketExpireDate, tblApplicant.Comment, tblApplicant.HomePhone, tblApplicant.CellPhone, tblApplicant.WorkPhone, tblApplicant.ContinueProcessDate, [ApplicantLName] & ", " & [ApplicantFName] AS Name, tblYsNo.YesNoType, tblLuTestType.Type
FROM tblYsNo INNER JOIN ((tblApplicant INNER JOIN tblLuTestType ON tblApplicant.TestType = tblLuTestType.TestType) INNER JOIN tblCaller ON tblApplicant.ApplicantID = tblCaller.ApplicantID) ON tblYsNo.YesNoMain = tblApplicant.Interested
WHERE (((tblApplicant.ApplicantID)=[Forms]![frmMainData]![ApplicantID]) AND ((tblApplicant.JacketExpireDate) Between [Forms]![frmReport]![txtStartInt] And [Forms]![frmReport]![txtEndInt]))
ORDER BY tblApplicant.ApplicantLName;
Thanks
My database contains information about events running in different areas. I want to make the filtering options for this information as flexible as possible and so want a query where most of the fields can have criteria set, but where they can optionally be left blank and so the data will not be filtered on that field. To do this, I am trying to create form which collects together the parameters required by the user which the query can then pick up.
I want to use list boxes which contain all the entries for a particular field, looked up from the original table (e.g. all the different town names from the town field of all the records). This will allow the user to select the one(s) they want to filter for.
However, using list boxes presents me with the following problems, with which I would appreciate help:
1) How do I refer to a list box from a query and get the correct code created? I could do this where I'm just refering to a text box, but then a text box only contains one value. How do I tell Access to look for any of the towns selected in a list box?
2) There will be options on my form to filter the data by any of the fields of which it is made up. Obviously, the user will not want to filter every field and so I need a way to tell Access that if the user has not made a selection for a particular field, then it should not filter that field when the query runs.
If anyone can help me with these two things I would greatly appreciate it. I've so nearly finished developing a new system and this is the last hurdle I need to overcome!
Thanks in advance,
Gary
This is my first time writing a pass through query pinging sql tables using an input parameter from a form. I have gotten as far as executing the query but I can't seem to display the result to ensure it's pulling the right records. I also want to be able to append the records to a table. Below is the code I have written so far:
Sub GETRT()
Code:
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim QDF As QueryDef
Dim STRSQL As String
Dim RS As Recordset
STRSQL = "SELECT * FROM LAB_MESR.ODM_RT_DAYS" & _
"WHERE LOCATION_ID=" & [Forms]![PARMS]![STR_NBR]
Set db = CurrentDb
Set QDF = db.QueryDefs("001:GET_LT")
QDF.SQL = STRSQL
End Sub
Do access VBA implements parameters passed to query strings in all following parameters?I've been working in ASP.NET/Razor C# and this would be an example of how it would be done:
Code:
db.Query("INSERT INTO threads (name, date_of_creation, user_id, area_id, user_group_id)" +
" VALUES(@0, @1, @2, @3, @4)",
Request["txtThreadTitle"],
DateTime.Now,
Session["user_id"],
area_id,
0
);
im working in MS Access 2007.what im trying to do is have a query run specific parameters if a check box is selected. So if the check box is selected than the query filters the "Tranche" column so that the only records that shown are records that have the "Tranche" coloumn = 1.
I know this can be done either in vba code or in the criteria section of a query but i dont know that appropriete language for either.
In vba code i was able to get this far. But..... i dont know how to call the criteria line from a query?
This is my very simple unfinished code.
My query is called [Tranch Query] and the column i want to filter with is call [Tranche]. The check box is called [Check0].
Private Sub Check0_AfterUpdate()
If Check0 = True Then
'How do i set the query criteria?????
End Sub
I have set up a parameter query in Access 2003 that asks the user for the "Section", such as "Admin", "Accounting" etc.
I need them to be able to respond to the prompt with more than one section if they want- sometimes just one, sometimes two or three or four.
So they can get "Accounting" and "Admin" both in the records that are returned.
The code:
SELECT T_ElainesMaster.Section, T_ElainesMaster.Login, T_ElainesMaster.Workstation, T_ElainesMaster.NT, T_ElainesMaster.Barcode, T_ElainesMaster.[PC model], T_ElainesMaster.[Emp Name], T_ElainesMaster.[swap or not], T_ElainesMaster.[Exp Date]
FROM T_ElainesMaster
WHERE (((T_ElainesMaster.Section) Like [What section would you like to include?]))
ORDER BY T_ElainesMaster.Section;
Thanks!
Hello
I have created a database for my department to log all of our jobs to keep track of them and I want to create a simple search for them but I am having difficulties.
I am familiar with creating queries to search tables for matching records, but is it possible to get search criteria from the user (ideally from a search form they fill in) to form the query?
For example, I would like the user to be able to query the jobs by month and/or business area and/or supplier...is this possible?:confused:
Any help gratefully received!!!
:)
I have created a query that will pull the price of a property into the cost field combo box on a booking order subform depending on the values of the start date and property number enter onto the same form.
The query gets the price from the property price table matching on the property no i've selected on the booking order subform and also the start date i've entered on the booking order subform which needs to be between the start and end date fields in the property price table.
Fields in the property price are property price no, property no, start date, end date and price.
Also the booking order subform is a subform on a booking form
This is the query i have created:
SELECT [Property Price].Price
FROM [Property Price]
WHERE (((forms![booking order subform]![start date]) Between [property price].[start date] And [property price].[end date]) And (([Property Price].[Property No])=forms![booking order subform]![property no]));
The problem is when i run the query from the cost combo box the query isn't picking up the fields on the booking order subform instead its bring up a seperate meesage box from parameters start date and property number to be enter.
Can someone give me advise how to make the query use the values in the fields on the booking order subform i enter before running the query. cheers
Hey folks,
Not sure if this is the best forum but decided to put it here anyway.
I have a Access query that reads:
SELECT bleh
FROM blah
WHERE something > 10
Then in Excel I pull the data across using:
Set qdf = db.QueryDefs(qryName)
Set rs = qdf.OpenRecordset
and paste the data using
ws1.Range("IV1").End(xlToLeft).Offset(0, 2).CopyFromRecordset rs
I now want to change the query so the where statement reads
WHERE something > [amt]
So the question is how do I pass the value for the parameter value for [amt] from excel to access?
Below is an example of my table "Current Status"
Manufacturer ID___SN________Current Location__Status Date______Time

A________________1____________Area 3________1/8/2008_______1:01 PM
B________________2____________Area 3________1/2/2008_______5:00 PM

How can I design a query that will return each products latest currrent location by date, aka, the third and sixth record???? Thank you, I am relativley new to access and am struggling with this.
I have a table field that contains a lot of part numbers in different format. One could be with hyphen while others are without hyphen.
record#1 : 4535-300-34567
Record#2: 453530034567
Record#3: 4535-301-56721
In this case record# 1 & 2 are same part number only difference is hyphen.
I want to set my query parameter [Enter part number] such a way, when some one enter 453530034567 it should pull both the record (record#1 & 2).
I have a fact table which contains a list of products at many different Retail Prices. I want to band these products into groups based on Retail Price Bands.
I have created a second table with the fields Retail Price Band, Minimum Retail Price, Maximum Retail Price. This defines the banding structure.
I would like to join Retail Price with Retail Price Band based on the parameters in the second table but don't know where to begin.
