Update Related Records And Remove Duplicates
Mar 18, 2014I have two tables, one is of departments, and one is of people (with a FK denoting what department this person is in). Now consider the fact that there are duplicates in the departments table, and I would like to remove these duplicates. However, the duplicates have related records (in the people table). So, before removing the duplicates, I must update the FKs in the table of people (this is the step I'm having trouble with).
Here's an example:
As you can see, the "Sales" department is there twice. And both have a related record. What I want to do is:
Update all DepartmentIDs (in tblPeople) to not point to duplicate records. In this example, that would be PersonID 2; Joe. His DepartmentID should update to "1" (as both "1" and "2" are "Sales").Delete the duplicates in tblDepartments (in this case, DepartmentID 2, "Sales").
The second step is no problem, it is only the first I am struggling with.
Also, the example posted here is just an example, the data I actually need to do this for is significantly more complex and there are many more records! In the attached database:
qry1: Simple query to find all duplicates (just used the query wizard)
qry2: Just the first row of each duplicated departments (duplicates that shouldn't be deleted). In the example above, this would be the "2", "Sales" row in the tblDepartments table.
qry3: Basically all qry1 rows that don't appear in qry2
qry4: All qry3 values, and their respective qry2 value.
This is what each of the (soon to be deleted) duplicate values' related records' DepartmentID should be updated to... There's no simpler way to phrase that, so using the example above, qry4 would return "2","1". This indicates that all people with a DepartmentID of "2" should be changed to "1" (so we can subsequently erase the department with the ID of 2.
This is as far as I have gotten. My next step is: Update all FKs in tblPeople based on qry4 (You can't set an update query's criteria to pull from another query, nor can you use the second query for the update value... or maybe you can, but I don't know about it).
Forms :: Link To Open Form With Certain Record Related To Individual In Query
Dec 5, 2013I created a query that shows everyone who has a specific date field blank. Now want to make those names clickable so that it opens a specific form with a certain record related to that individual in the query. Each line with a different individual should open a different person on the form and their corresponding record.
View 3 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Remove Customer From List But Keep All Related Info
Sep 26, 2012Let's say I have a list of customers. For each customer I have much more info on other lists (order list, personal info list, bank info list, and so on) - all are of course connected properly.
Now let's say a certain customer is no longer my customer, so I want to remove him from the customer-list. But, I want to move him to a different list - past-customers - so all the information that was related to that customer will remain so. In short, I want to remove from the customer-list without affecting the related data.

View 1 Replies View RelatedSum Values From Multiple Related Records On A Form
Jan 26, 2013I am fairly new to Access and have no formal training on this program, just a lot of trial and error. I have a database with 4 tables. They are tblEmployees, tblCourses, tblDates, and tblTraining. The key for each was an autonumber that is EMPLOYEEID, COURSEID, DATEID, and TRAININGID.
tblEmployee lists pertinent information regarding an employee (name, serial #, shift, etc). tblCourse lists all courses that are available for an employee (course name, #hours, required attendees, type of training, etc).
tblDates lists all available class dates and times for the courses in tblCourses and has a lookup field for COURSEID and COURSETITLE from tblCourses.
tblTraining lists all the training scheduled for and completed by an employee and has a lookup/relationship with tblEmployees for EMPLOYEEID and EMPLOYEENAME.
It also has a lookup/relationship field with tblCourses for COURSEID and COURSETITLE. Finally, it has a lookup/relationship with tblDates with lookup field/relationship with DATEID and CLASSDATE. I have successfully created a form where the training can be added to an employee (frmTrainingUpdated) and it has a subform (frmTraining) with all classes for that employee in a multilist at the bottom (from a query of tblTraining). The subform also has a field for whether the training was completed and then the hours are credited to the employee (txtCredit).
The problem comes when I try to add all of the credited hours for a single employee in a separate field. I am trying to create a field somewhere on the form that will total all of the hours for all of the completed classes for the one employee on the form. I have tried to list the data for the textbox as =DSUM([txtCredit], tblTraining, WHERE (EMPLOYEE=Me.Employee)) and only get an error message displayed in the textbox. I tried to do a totals SUM on the query and it only gives me the individual hours for each class on the same line for that record.
Queries :: Concatenate Related Records Into One Expression / Field In A Form
Feb 13, 2014In my query, I have several results that relate to the same PK overall, and I'd like to concatenate these records into one expression/one field in a form.
Currently my query looks like this;
As you can see, the BandPK/BandFK are repeated where the GenreFK/GenrePK are different. What I'd like to do is concatenate the column named Genres into one field so the BandFK/PK isn't repeated.
Need To Remove Hash At The Start And End Of Link Address Stored On Database
Apr 16, 2014I am using asp and database to store info for example link addresses. Unfortunately, they have become stored in database column with a # on either side. I have tried find and replace but this does not work on # symbol. It can not be stored as a hyperlink because I need my website to extract info from remote database and then display info in results page as a hyperlink. Works fine if I remove them by hand but there are 3000 of them!
View 3 Replies View RelatedQueries :: Mass Duplicate Main Records And Related Subform Records
May 29, 2014In my simple database (attached), I need to mass duplicate Tasks and their Notes.
I have three tables: tbTasks (PK: Task_ID), tbNotes (PK: Note_ID), jtbTaskNotes (FKs: Task_ID and Note_ID). jtbTaskNotes is my many-to-many junction table that ties Tasks to Notes.
The main form (fmTasks), bound to tbTasks, has a subform (sbfm_TaskNotes) that displays notes associated with each Task. On themain form,you select which Tasks you want duplicated via a checkbox. The append query (quCopyTasks) will duplicate all tasks that have the checkbox checked. All good there. However, I can't figure out how to also duplicate each task's Notes.
I found Allen Browne's solution [URL] ....., but that only handles duplication of one record at a time, whereas I need to duplicate many records at a time (sometimes 10+ records). How do I go about duplicating multiple Tasks and their associated Notes?
Before you ask "why are you duplicating records?": There are times when tasks need to be re-accomplished and therefore need to have a new record. It's easier to duplicate records than it is to hand-jam everything again.
Related Records
Aug 28, 2007I've been using an access d/b for ages, it's one of the template (Orders) databases included with access but modded to suit my own use. copy attached with customer details removed.
Last time I used it it worked fine but yesterday, when I tried entering order information, I get an error saying cant add or change a record because a related record is required in table orders.
Can anyone shed some light on the potential problem? Bear in mind I'm not an advanced user and have very limited knowledge on relationships in access.
Thanks in advance.

First/Last Of Related Records
Oct 13, 2005The "last" total in an Access query is unpredictiable. I have a Journal, with the main form/dataset being linked to the entries of that day. I would expect the 'last' total word to give me the last entry of that day, ie. what I ate for supper. But in the two qrys shown, it does the opposite. What is the most relable way to get the last entry of that day (ie. the one with the highest journalID)? :confused:
Sample Database attached.
Min Value And Related Records
Oct 29, 2005Hi,
i need a query to return the first orderdetailsID and related productsID, so that all the other products that are the same as oldest order can be manufactured together.
In access help menu it shows it would be something like using the criteria under productname1 field:
(SELECT [productname1] FROM [the next one to cut query] WHERE min([orderdetailsID]))
But this returns an error cannot have aggregate function in where clause
min([oderdetailsID])).
I've also tried with 2 queries, 1 with the min function and the using inner join, but can't get it to work.
Thankyou
Related Records
Jan 18, 2006Before I spend an age trying to get this to work I thought I'd consult some experts.
I have a main data table for recording all possible insurance claims against a company. What I want to do is create say 2 incidents but link them in some way. i.e. One of our drivers had a car accident (1 claim against our motor policy), but then the driver of the other car sues us(1 claim against our public liability).
I can create 2 seperate records and maybe have a field to highlight parent/child reference numbers, but is there anyway I could allow the user to click a button and see the related records simultaneously?
Cheers

Counting Matching Related Records
Sep 30, 2007Hello there,
I have tables like so (simplified):
-=Holiday=-
HolidayID
Name
Date
-=Booking=-
BookingID
HolidayID
ClientID
What I would like to do is create a query which returns a list of all the holidays with a field showing how many bookings have been created for each holiday. This almost works:
SELECT Count(1) AS CountOfBookingID, Bookings.HolidayID
FROM Bookings
GROUP BY Bookings.HolidayID;
...but it does not display holidays where there are no bookings.
Is it possible to create one which will show all holidays even if there are no bookings?
Thanks!:cool:
Button Deletes All Related Records - Help!
Feb 20, 2005I have a problem where a button is deleting all the records related to one record, I was hoping somebody could help. Here's the problem:
OrderID is an attribute in table tblOrders. It is related (with Cascade update related records) to OrderID in tblTurkeys. In a form with a button which deletes a particular OrderID from tblOrders, when this button is clicked, if there are records in tblTurkeys with that OrderID, the record in tblOrders cannot be deleted. And if I changed the relationship type to cascade delete, the record in tblTurkeys will be deleted. Basically, I want the button to, before deleting the record in tblOrders, make the value of the OrderID attribute of any records in tblTurkey with the same OrderID as the one being deleted to have no value.
Eg. Record in tblOrders is being deleted. It's OrderID is 2. There are two records in tblTurkeys which have OrderID attributes of value 2, so when the record in tblOrders is being deleted, the values of the OrderID attributes previously mentioned as being in tblTurkeys now have no value.
That's what I need it to do! If anyone can help, I'd be greatly thankful!
Adding Records To Related Table
Sep 28, 2006Hello I need to add daily records to a related table using a form, from a button or subform displayed on a form updating the master table.
This would enter the related key to the new form ready for insertion etc.
Can this be done?
For example
Master table:
Key 1
Related table:
1 Key 1
2 Key 1
3 Key 1

Show Only Certain Related Records In Combo Box
Oct 14, 2006I have a feeling this is a common and probably easy question, but I couldn't find anything on it in the forums.
I have a main customer form with multiple subforms on it to keep track of my clients insurance policies and claims. I enter their contact data in the main form, and the policy data on one of the subforms. Then when they have a claim, I enter the policy information on the claim subform as well.
How could I have the combo boxes in the claims subform (which is storing data in a claims table) only show the policy numbers (stored in a policies table) assigned to that particular person? I would assume I need to somehow filter the policies query so it only shows records for that particular person, but I'm not sure how to do that on the fly.

Show All Records That Have More Than One Matching In A Related Table
Dec 16, 2005Hi,
I've been trying to get this for ages now - both in the design view and in sql:
I have 2 tables - one called DrawingsRegister and a related one called DrawingRevisions. Each drawing has one or more drawing revisions. I want a query that will show each drawing (just once) that has more than one revision:
SELECT tblDrawingsRegister.DrawingNum, tblDrawingsRegister.DrawingName, tblDrawingRevisions.DrawingNum
FROM tblDrawingsRegister INNER JOIN tblDrawingRevisions ON tblDrawingsRegister.DrawingNum = tblDrawingRevisions.DrawingNum
WHERE ((Count([tblDrawingRevisions]![DrawingNum])>"0"));
Thanks for your time,

Duplicating Parent And Related Child Records
Dec 18, 2006I am creating a purchase request form for my company. The main form contains the PO Request # (autonumber) and general vendor and shipping information. The subform contains the item numbers on the order, the quantity and costs. What I am trying to do is make it so that users can click a "duplicate" button on the main form of an existing PO Request and have all the data replicated into a new PO Request. A lot of what we order is repetitious and it would time saving if users could just duplicate an order and modify as necessary. Can anyone help me with this one...
Thanks!:confused:

Add/Remove Records From A List
Jun 2, 2006(Been a while since I had a question.) I have a table that stores a list of paper forms. the fields are ID#, display name, doccument name, and a code to determine if its a Word or Excel doccument, or an access report. Works fine; the user can click a form name (on the Forms/Reports tab on the main menu form) in a list box, set the # of copies and print the form. There are cases when a group of forms is needed (client admission is one). I have made a group table containing: GrpID, Grp Name, formID. I would like my "Form Group Edit" form to have 2 list boxes; the left one containing the (short) list of available forms; the right one displaying what forms are already (if any) in the selected form group. My idea is to have add/remove controls to manage the right list. I know this "wheel" is already invented and would like to plagerize one that works. Thanks in advance for your help.
