Data Manipulation
Oct 22, 2007Is there anyway to strip all characters except numeric out of a value? For example: 999/777-5555. I want to strip the / and the hyphen. The characters can vary so is there anyway to recognize just numeric?

...which I have to crosstabulate, reorder, recode and place in a new table.
Currently I use two queries in Access to do this, but it takes a long time as there are invariably a million or so records.
I've tried to use VBA to speed things up, but with limited success.
Firstly I tried to do a cross-tab and append for each unique identifier...
Code:Sub PopCrossReorderRecode1()Dim db As DatabaseDim rsAbres As RecordsetDim rsCrosstab As RecordsetSet db = CurrentDb()Set rsAbres = db.OpenRecordset("SELECT [OPIE id] FROM Abres GROUP BY [OPIE id]")For Each Value In rsAbresSet rsCrosstab = db.OpenRecordset("TRANSFORM Max(Abres.[Susceptibility result description]) AS [MaxOfSusceptibility result description] " & _ "SELECT Abres.[OPIE id], Max(Abres.[Susceptibility result description]) AS " & _ "[Total Of Susceptibility result description] " & _ "FROM Abres " & _ "PIVOT Abres.[Antibiotic name];") DoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO CrossReorderRecode ( [OPIE id], Tested, Ak, pA, Ctx, Ctr, Cfx, Cx, Cfd, C, Cp, Co, Fu, G, A, S, T, K, CpL, Nx, Ne, Sp, pS, Su, gT, Tm )" & _ "SELECT rsCrossTab.[OPIE id], rsCrossTab.[Total Of Susceptibility result description], " & _ "rsCrossTab.AMIKACIN, rsCrossTab.AMPICILLIN, rsCrossTab.CEFOTAXIME, rsCrossTab.CEFTRIAXONE, " & _ "rsCrossTab.CEFUROXIME, rsCrossTab.CEPHALEXIN, rsCrossTab.CEPHRADINE, rsCrossTab.CHLORAMPHENICOL," & _ "rsCrossTab.CIPROFLOXACIN, rsCrossTab.COLISTIN, rsCrossTab.FURAZOLIDONE, rsCrossTab.GENTAMICIN, " & _ "rsCrossTab.[HIGH LEVEL AMPICILLIN], rsCrossTab.[HIGH LEVEL STREPTOMYCIN], " & _ "rsCrossTab.[HIGH LEVEL TETRACYCLINE], rsCrossTab.KANAMYCIN, rsCrossTab.[LOW LEVEL CIPROFLOXACIN], " & _ "rsCrossTab.[NALIDIXIC ACID], rsCrossTab.NEOMYCIN, rsCrossTab.SPECTINOMYCIN, rsCrossTab.STREPTOMYCIN, " & _ "rsCrossTab.SULPHONAMIDE, rsCrossTab.TETRACYCLINE, rsCrossTab.TRIMETHOPRIM " & _ "FROM rsCrossTab;"NextEnd Sub
...but just got a run-time error 3251 or an error with the transform statement.
Next I tried to address each antibiotic at time...
Code:Sub PopCrossReorderRecode2()DoCmd.SetWarnings off' Delete the current contents of CrossReorderRecodeDoCmd.RunSQL "DELETE CrossReorderRecode.* FROM CrossReorderRecode;"'Populate OPIE id in CrossReorderRecode from AbresDoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO CrossReorderRecode ( [OPIE id] ) SELECT Abres.[OPIE id] FROM Abres GROUP BY Abres.[OPIE id]", dbOpenTable' Run an update query for each antibiotic, putting the relevant code into the relevant field'AmpicillinDoCmd.RunSQL "UPDATE CrossReorderRecode INNER JOIN Abres ON CrossReorderRecode.[OPIE id] = Abres.[OPIE id] " & _ "SET CrossReorderRecode.pA = IIf([Abres].[Susceptibility result description]=""RESISTANT"",""A"", " & _ "IIf([Abres].[Susceptibility result description]=""INTERMEDIATE"",""pA"", " & _ "(IIf([Abres].[Susceptibility result description]=""SUSCEPTIBLE"","""",""."")))) " & _ "WHERE (((Abres.[Antibiotic name])=""AMPICILLIN"")); "'High level Ampicillin'etc etc
...and whilst this worked it took twice as long as the original query, which I imagine is do to its repetitive nature.
If anyone is able to point me in the right direction I'd be grateful. I'm relatively new to VBA and finding it useful and frustrating in equal measures!
Thanks,
Iain
Modules & VBA :: CSV File Manipulation - Parsing Data Into Array
Jun 9, 2013I'm trying to parse the following into an Array by splitting the csv file using a "," comma separator. There should be 63 different data pieces in this File. When I do a count of them from the (ubound array) i only get 54. The last data piece on each row gets concatenated to the first data piece of the next line. Is there a way to stop this from happening? This is causing problems with working with the data.

Queries :: Alphanumeric String Manipulation - Move Data At The Left To Right
May 23, 2013I have several thousands of lines of data which I wish to manipulate programmatically, if at all possible. I think that all of the possible permutations are summed-up by the following examples :
123 A text string
2-8 Another text string
A-C Another text string here
3-20 And some more text
3A-126B More text
Some text without any numbers or letters at the left
What I need to do is :
Move the alphanumeric data at the left to the right. So the data would end up looking like this :
A text string 123
Another text string 2-8
Another text string here A-C
And some more text 3-20
More text 3A-126B
Some text without any numbers or letters at the left
I suppose it hinges on identifying where the first space in from the left appears, cutting the string at that point, and
Is this possible, programmatically ?
Tick Box Manipulation
Mar 17, 2008This is probably very simple but still beyond me.
I have a table that stores text in a number of different languages. Each entry has a unique ID number. Each language version of the same text shares the ID number.
I have a column of tick boxes that show where this text is used.
ie
1.0 English_text_record_1 tickcol1=y tickcol2=n tickcol3=y
1.0 French_text_record_1 tickcol1=y tickcol2=n tickcol3=y
1.0 Spanish_text_record_1 tickcol1=y tickcol2=n tickcol3=y
2.0 English_text_record_1 tickcol1=y tickcol2=y tickcol3=y
2.0 French_text_record_1 tickcol1=y tickcol2=y tickcol3=y
2.0 Spanish_text_record_1 tickcol1=y tickcol2=y tickcol3=y
I am trying to set the tick boxes so that, if I tick one in an ID range, all the rest tick on as well. ie if I tick record 1.0 English tick_col_2, then the French and spanish will be ticked as well.
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Table Manipulation Problem
Aug 23, 2006I currently have a table with contact data set out like so (first few columns shown only, but about 10 in total);
ID Establishment Surname FirstName etc1 etc2 etc3
1 ABC Frost Jim data. data. data.
2 ABC Jennings Paul data.. data.. data..
3 XYZ Smith Dave data.. data.. data..
etc...
You will see that the first two contacts are from the same establishment, but the third is not.
I would like the table to be formated so that I have a single row for an establishment, but multiple contacts in the same row, i.e. as below.
ID Establishment Surname FirstName etc1 etc2 etc3 Surname_02 FristName_02 etc1_02 etc..
1 ABC Frost Jim data. data. data. Jennings Paul data.. data.
There are 16,000 records which I need to manipulate (roughly 3 contacts per establishment), hence I wondered if there was a was to do this, or maybe export to excel first, then manipulate and then re-import into an Access table.
I am very new to access and any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,

View 2 Replies View RelatedString Manipulation: Cleaning Up Address Labels
Dec 28, 2007PROBLEM: String Manipulation
"Cleaning up Mom's Christmas address labels"
I need guidance on the best string manipulation functions (Instr, Left, Right) to cleanup my mother's Christmas address list of 300+ names.
I have successfully imported the text file into Excel and exported to Access; fieldnames: FULLNAME, ADDRESS, CITYSTATEZIP
I have found instructions on how to breakout FULLNAME field into FIRSTNAME and LASTNAME.
But within the FULLNAME field are many combinations of titles (Mr., Mr. & Mrs., Dr., HON.) with inconsistent periods applied.
Which one of string manipulation functions:
Instr
Left
Right
would be best for extracting these various titles from this name field?
I understand the concepts behind the above functions, but not enough experience using them to understand the tedious syntax or which string manipulation function would be best for extracting the varying title entries to a separate created field called TITLES.
So far, I have deduced this will be a multi-step process. But asking for guidance:
1.) Which string function is best suited for this?
2.) Example of the function syntax for an update query?
2.) Suggested order to administer update queries?...
to extract misc titles from the FULLNAME field.
I am a novice-casual Access user.
Thanks, Greg
(If someone would copyright these steps into a book called "Cleaning Up Mom's Christmas Address List"... I am sure they could retire from sales on Amazon. :-)
Queries :: Create Join Using LEFT String Manipulation
Apr 28, 2015I think I know the answer but want to check. I've been asked to create a query, without querying a query first, but it's the only way I know.
I have two tables
Table1 will have data in a column that is 9 characters long
ULCABC123
ULCABC124
ULCABC125
PLTABC123
PLTABC124
Table2 will have data in a column that is 6 characters long
ULCABC
PLTABC
Question: Can I create a Join from Table2 Field with the Left(Field,6) from Table1
I was thinking something like this. (but then I can't enter design mode)
Query1 - Test
Code:
SELECT Table2.ORDDETTYPE, Table2.DESCRIPTION
FROM Table2 INNER JOIN Table1 ON Table2.ORDDETTYPE = Left(Table1.ORDERDET,6)
GROUP BY Table2.ORDDETTYPE, Table2.DESCRIPTION;
I presume the only way to do this is first query Table1 (and call Query2) and return the first 6 characters and the create another query (Query3 in this case) using Query2 field joined with Table2 field.
Query2
Code:
SELECT Left([ORDERDET],6) AS NEWORDDET
FROM Table1;
Query3
Code:
SELECT Table2.ORDDETTYPE, Table2.DESCRIPTION
FROM Query2 INNER JOIN Table2 ON Query2.[NEWORDDET] = Table2.ORDDETTYPE
GROUP BY Table2.ORDDETTYPE, Table2.DESCRIPTION;
General :: String Manipulation On A Table - Text Is Gibberish In Group By Query
Jun 22, 2015While processing string manipulation on a table (140K records, 200-250 MB) the file has corrupted, and I lost all vba Modules, but the data and other DB objects seemed to be in tact.
I now have a query with a text field, when I make a simple join SELECT, the text comes in fine (and, of course, seems fine when presented in table), but when Group by - I get Gibarish: "CARVEDILOL 6.25MG, TABLETS"
Is presented in Group by as: "ç …5"
I have recreated the file, importing queries, including this one, but then recreated it as a totally new query, but get that same results.
File Corruption? anything to do about it?
Using Data From Other Data Bases In A "main Data Base"..any Problems
Mar 27, 2008If my make queries in the data base and the source data base is another .mdb and the table names in the other .mdb which would be used for the queries are the same as those in the data base where the queries would be made......does anyone see any problems with that in the area of corruption or similar.
The queries made would be indentical to their counterparts in the data base where they are made and would serve the same purpose.
It would be a toggle type of thing whereby the recordsources for the forms in question would be changed.
For what I want to do it works perfectly but I am not sure if there would be problems that would only surface with longer term use and varied conditions as opposed to some short term testing.
Reports :: Report To Show Data Details Selectively For Each Field / Qualitative Data
Apr 16, 2014I have data from a survey with qualitative responses. For a single qualitative question, I moved the ID & responses into a new table and categorized the response according to a bucket/theme, where each column is a new bucket. I now have 10 columns. Each response is represented in 1 or more columns. I used an excel formula to copy the response data into the column itself.
Example:
A1 // B1// C1 // D1// E1//... L1
ID // Response // Cats // Dogs // Elephants //.... Column 10
1 // I like cats // I like cats //(null)//(null)// ... (null)//
2 // I like cats and dogs // I like cats and dogs // I like cats and dogs //(null)//..//
3 // etc.
However, now I'm realizing that Access always wants to show data for all records, or at most I can limit using a WHERE clause in my query.I want to use Access to generate this report:
1. Section 1: Show all responses from the Cats bucket where there is data
2. Section 2: Show all responses from the Dogs bucket where there is data
3. and so on
I know how to do summary values, and I know how to do filtering that apply across the whole report, but this seems like more advanced filtering, where I want to see selective details differently for each field.
Data Entry - Auto Fill Data For Exisitng Accounts In Records
Mar 9, 2006First I would like to give thanks to all the knowledgeable folks here who have helped me with my DB to date. It is working and every one is very happy and I have learned a lot.
So now I would like to add some more functionality to this existing project.
My DB is for data input of customers for a drawing. It has the following fields: Id, account number, first name, last name, date/time, score1, score2.
I t is taking a great deal of time for the users to enter in hundreds of entries a day. Most of the entries are customers who are already in the DB. I would like to get the fields to auto fill the data for existing customers say after the account number is entered. So after you put in the account the name and any other pertinent data would shows up saving users from typing it in again.
The first problem I am having is that this is still a data entry form and I can’t figure out how to be able to see the account information and still add new data to the record? The new data is a daily score they get.
Second I haven’t figured out how to call up the customers information from just the account field.
I’ve googled this and haven’t found anything terribly helpful.
Select 1 Pce Of Data And It Automatically Selects And Inputs Relating Data In A Form
Oct 24, 2007i would like in a form for a combo box to be able to select an item from a table and input relating information automatically into other boxes in the form..
I have 3 tables: Table 1 has product code and product description.
Table 2 has invoice number company details, address etc.
Table 3 has product code and product description qty and invoice number..
Table 3 relates to table 2 by the invoice number and table 3 product code looks up the product codes available in table 1 and also table 3 looks up the list of products descriptions in table 1 using the combo wizard.
This means the wrong code can be put with wrong description.
What i would like to know is how i select a product description and the product code in the form fills out automatically?? i hope this makes sense please helppppp!!
Forms :: Create Data Entry Form To Input Data For Field
Mar 5, 2015I an trying to create a data entry form (IndividualsEntryFm) to input data for fields such as (First Name),(Birthdate) etc., these to be saved to the (IndividualsTbl)
I also have another table (NamesTbl) which has family names etc. The two tables are linked by a (MainID) field. I want a combo box on the individualsEntryFm so that I can select the family name. Then I wish the empty fields for the IndividualsTbl to be available to enter data.When I press the save button I then want this data saved, together with the MainID from the combo box to the IndividualsTbl.
I have set the IndividualsTbl with a (PersonID) field as an auto number each individual therefore has a unique PersonID but may well share the MainID. I'm trying to link many people to the same address.

Queries :: Filter Data From A Table Using Query (from Data Input Form)
Dec 30, 2014I would like to filter data from a table using a query (from an data input form). The objective is to output all results if input form field is empty and to output results higher or equal to the type in the field if field is not Null. The query code is as follows:
IIf(IsNull([Forms]![Form2]![MaxDiffInput]);[Maximum operational pressure (bar)];[Maximum operational pressure (bar)]>=[Forms]![Form2]![MaxDiffInput])
However, is not providing any result when the input field (MaxDiffInput) as a value.
Modules & VBA :: Copy Data In Sheet1 Using Sheet 2 And Access Table Data?
Aug 5, 2014I am using Excel/VBA as a frontend and Access backend. The sheet2 stores the queue name and Queue number. We have to update the sheet1 from column L to column O by looking for the values from the Access table for the date selected from the comboboxes. Now In sheet 2 , it says Queue number and in actual in access table it is the combination of Type & Type1 & Type2. So we have to look for Type & Type1 & Type2 in the table and find out total Batches ,Total Envelopes,Total documents and total pages and then store the values in the ExcelSheet1 from column L to column O.
The following formulas will be used in the select statment:
Total Batches = count(BatchNo) for date selected
Total Envelopes=sum(Envelopes) for date selected
Total Documents=sum(Cases) for date selected
Total Pages=sum(Pages) for date selected
Creating A Query / Report That Displays Data From Two Tables And Total One Set Of Data
Aug 10, 2012I want a Text Box Query on my form to display the Status, Workshop, Time, Enrolled and Limit. The problem is these values come from two different tables and the Enrolled value comes from a single field that contains the different workshops.
What I mean is: In Table[Attendees] a row contains a customer's Number, First Name, Last Name, Workshop and Phone Number. The workshops vary for each customer so one row on the table could have John Doe attending Cover Letter Writing and the next row could have John Smith attending Resume Writing. What I want is to be able to count the different workshops within the Field[Workshop] and total them and then display the total in a Text Box Query. I have a Text Box Query set up displaying Status, Workshop, Time and Limit as these values all come from Table[Workshops].
So basically I need to Query to also display a result that is the Total for each workshop from Table[Attendees] and display the total for each workshop in a Query with data from Table[Workshops].
Here is a link to an Example Database [URL] ....
I'm trying to avoid putting things on different reports and the like because the people using this are basically computer illiterate and if they have to click a button (no matter how well labeled) they won't do it and the information might as well not exist.
And if there's a better way to do it, I'm all ears. The only thing is, I have to update these workshops month by month. Since they are dynamic, I want to avoid creating separate tables for each workshop.

Feb 18, 2015My aim is to have my forms open to a new record, which I have done, but if my users need to then update or edit data in previous entries, they can click a button that allows this.
My thoughts were to add a button, then put in code so that the necessary properties changed the form from displaying a new record or records entered since opening it, to showing all records in the associated table....
As an example there is a table for purchase orders. When clicking on this from the main menu form, it opens up the purchase order form to create a brand new PO. At times though, we will need to revisit an order to attach a copy of an invoice, or update the cost of whatever was purchased.
