Hi
I am trying to replace the numeric values of a field with a text in querry using Choose function, something like this aa5:
Choose([a5]-1="one";[a5]-2="two";[a5]-3="three";[a5]-4="four")
But it is not giving me no results :(( I am missing something but I do not what. Maybe I should use some other function?
I hope someone will help me!
I am writing a sports database and have a query that displays a seasons fixture list in a form. One of the fields shows the points from each game played. (either 3 for a win, 1 for a draw etc). I can not get these points to be added up and displayed in a form along side the fixture list.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have developed a database but have had difficulty with sorting data within subform of a main form. The subform displays the related tasks that correspond with main form that has been selected. Within the main form I have also created a text field that defines a particular sorting sequence of the tasks found within the subform which is titled Task Sequence. What I would like to do, is use the Task Sequence field to sort the order of tasks within subform. I have tried: IIf([ID] Is Null, 0, Val([Task Sequence])) within the Advanced filter/sort but either it shows only the first task defined in the Task Sequence or it wants to filter the main form and not the subform.

How is it possible.? Can anyone help me.
Hi,
i have created a query from just one table, which is basically a list of Financial transactions.
There is a field called supplier code, in this query.
Most of the transactions have a supplier code, but there are a few that don't.
i've got another table that has the supplier name against the supplier code.
i want to bring this table into the query, so that i can show the supplier names against those records in the query that have a supplier code.
when i add this table and link the 2 tables up and put the supplier name into the query. The query excludes the records with no supplier code.
This is presumably, because they contain null values.
I've been reading about the Nz function and i think this is what i need to use.
i've tried this, but it still only brings through the records with a supplier code and not all of them.
How i've done this is to go into the design mode of the query and in the column that would have null values i have click "build"
in here i have the following formula.
Nz([Supplier Name],"No")
Am i doing anything wrong?
Is it possible to create the following logic in query:
"If there is a "SHIFT2" or "SHIFT3" value on the last Friday in month,
then change the date values for these entries to the next date (Saturday)"
In the attached sample, there is a number of such values within the "Adv Track Shift" field dated on Friday 04/25/08 in the "shift_date" field. The logic should replace the applicable dates to Saturday 04/26/08. This should work for any month, regardless if it finds either of the two shifts or both of them.
I need to create a query that combines two columns (lets say Column A and Column B for example) however the problem is that whatever non-null values that are in Column B must replace any value in Column A. If Column B has a value that is null then Column A's value is shown.
I have an example of what I'm working with (access file) and what result I want (excel file).
I have a travel time database that should tally the number of minutes traveled and convert them into a time (hours and minutes). I, however, am having difficulty converting the numeric values cleanly. Is there anyway to convert 102 minutes + 100 minutes + 110 minutes = 312 minutes to 5 hours and 12 minutes cleanly? I need to take averages of time traveled and hours worked but cannot do this correctly. Thank you for any help in advance.:eek:

Hello,
I am not sure what cateogory to choose for this question but I would greatly appreciate your help.
I have 5 buttons in my option group:
1. very often
2. often
3. occasionally
4. rarely
5. never
I have to produce a report using description of each button in my report, not numeric value. I heard something about global variable but I am not sure how to do it.
Many thanks,

Hi,
I am trying to create a query that will return the max value of small groups of alpha numeric fields. The numeric portion is the same for a series/group of items, but the alpha increments. Example: (I color coded the numeric groups for ease of reading)
The following:
...
0001210-0015A
0001210-0015B
0001210-0015C
0001211-0001A
0001211-0001B
0001211-0001C
0001211-0001D
0001211-0002A
0001211-0002B
0001211-0003A
0001211-0003B
0001211-0003C
0001212-0001A
...
would have a query result like this:
...
0001210-0015C
0001211-0001D
0001211-0002B
0001211-0003C
0001212-0001A
...
Unfortunately, I do not have any other fields that I could use to help. I was able to create two calculated fields one with the numeric portion and one with the alpha portion, but then didn't know how to remove the unwanted ones. Also, every value is the same size, 7 numbers, one dash, four numbers, and one letter. My table has around four thousand records or so.
I thought of writting a VB app to single step and compare, but I am hoping there is a better method.
I have been pouring over this site and trying all kinds of things that end up failing. I am not a novice, but obviously not an expert.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
I can't seem to get my date field to update to today when I add information to another field.
My table has a lookup field, date field, text field, text field, text field.
I have set the date field to default to today for each new record.
I work with this table as a subform.
I would like to have the date field update to the date I go back to the record and update the first text field.
I have tried using after update, and an if - then statement, but nothing seems to work.
I have a form with a textbox, where one inputs a number and then I run a query with the form criteria. The query is
Code:
Select Blah blah from dbo_temp where A>textbox value OR B>textbox value OR C>textbox value OR D>textbox value
The columns which are linked to the textbox some times contain null values. So, A, B, C, D columns do contain null values.
The expression in the "Criteria" column of Columns A, B, C, D (all on different lines - to make sure OR criteria is fullfilled) is as follows
Code:
>IIf(IsNull([Forms]![MainForm]![Criteria]),-100,[Forms]![MainForm]![Criteria])
I've put in -100 as an arbitrary never possible number. Obviously, this does not return Null values.
Question: How can I return both Null & Numbers when the Textbox in the form is left blank? in all the columns. Currently, I am not getting Null values
Code:
>IIf(IsNull([Forms]![MainForm]![Criteria]),SHOW ME EVERYTHING INCLUDING NULL VALUES & NON-NULL NUMBERS,[Forms]![Material Finder]![txtPS])
or in other words
If the textbox is blank, show me all the data available, else if it is not blank then show me only the values that are greater than the number entered in the textbox from within column A, B, C, D ....
Is there a way to write different numerical values in single cell of table via form.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am making a report off of a query. The report is returning values from a Option Group. 1=Yes, 2=No and 3=N/A. The report returns the numeric values and I want the value labels instead. So, I created a column in the query for exp1 which looks like the following:

What the report returns is #Error.
I've created a macro to use an unbound textbox to filter a form. In a query, I combined 3 fields to enable an easy search over. Sadly, only text characters work for the search, so whenever I search for numeric values, it returns null. This doesn't happen if I utilise the filter over just a numeric field - only when the search field combined multiple fields.
Is there a simple solution? My marco filter is
Code:
[Forms]![STAFF SEARCH FORM]![SEARCHDATA] Like "*" & "[SEARCHFIELD]" & "*"
I'm fairly new to access, but I thought this was simple!!! I want to querry a column/field in a database table called Quote # simply to return me the largest number in that column. I then want to use that number and add 1 to it each time I start a new record....
Any help appreciated
I'm building a database to calculate yearly fees for customers. I have a list coming from our accountancy-database that shows a field with the clients name & surname combined and I have a table named 'customers' that contains the clients names & surnames as separate values.
The first table (let's name it "accountancy") thus contains a field "Customer". Example data in this field:
"John McLane"
"John Doe"
"Marcy Free"
"Zino Withers"
The second table ("customers") contains the fields "ID, name, surname". Example data in this table:
1;"John";"Doe"
2;"Marcy";"Free"
3;"John";"McLane"
Now, what I'm looking for is a way to replace the 'Customer'-field in the first table by a lookup field that contains the correct ID for that customer in the 'Customers'-table.
Lucky thing: there are no doubles in the customer's table, so no two customers have the same name AND surname.
I am adding fields with numeric values in design view of my query. The only issue I am having is that the query is not showing totals when one of the fields does not have a numeric value in it. How can I show the total numeric value regardless of the null value? Thank you:cool:
View 1 Replies View RelatedHow do you search for any number of numeric characters using wildcards? The # symbol only searches for 1, and * obviously includes letters.
Example:
I have:
D1234
D3
D5336767
D123F
My search should only retrieve the first 3 values.
WHERE FieldName LIKE 'D[0-99999999]' does not seem to work.
I currently have records that end with a letter and 2 numbers. For example, A1, A2, ... , A10, A11. When I try to sort my table/query by these values, A10 & A11 come before A2. It seems that it is sorting by the first digit shown. Is there any way to fix this quickly within table/query properties so that this can be displayed in proper numeric order?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a numeric field (long integer) in a table. I've set the format to fixed. No matter what I set the decimal places to, auto, 0 or 2, when I enter a value of 0.71, it displays as 1.00

I would like to make a join between two field in 2 different tables:
1.) Table with number field for Purchase Order number

I have a text field having data i-e HO-1, HO,2, ACW-25 and so on. The field name is nBadge_num and is Unique. The data in this field is sorted automatically like 1, 10, 11, 12, 13, 2, 3, 4, 5...because this is the text field.
The number on the form is automatically generated, when the user type HO- for example on field exit event. The last number will generate like HO-5.
Code for automatic number generation is:
Dim dbs As Database, rst As Recordset, Response
Set dbs = CurrentDb
Set rst = dbs.OpenRecordset("SELECT Max(Right([nBadge_Num],Len([nBadge_Num])-" & Len(Me.NBadge_Num) & ")) AS MaxNo " _
[Code]....
My problem is when the number is generated it give HO-5 instead of HO-14, How can I sort the numeric part of the field ?
Trying to do the following:
Having built a table of customers, I need to have an automatically generated ID number for each that IS IN ORDER - which rules out Autonumber and it's gapping tendencies. So, I've developed a new CustID field and set it to "Number", and now just need to figure out how to get it to pull the previous entry and add "1" to it. So it would look like this:
CUSTID NAME
1 Bob
2 Fran
3 Phil
4 Tom
5 (ready for next entry)
Any way to use a function I don't know about, or program some type of solution? Thank you
