I have a Child Report with underlaying records from a SELECT DISTINCT.
I prints records of prices, I need to show "some_text" if the price is "0".
Which event should I use?
I tried ChildReport On_Activate but could not pull it off.

I need to select two fields in a select DISTINCT query
Select tbl_Aplaws.AplawID, DISTINCT tbl_Aplaws.Level2 FROM tbl_Aplaws WHERE tbl_Aplaws.Level1 = 'Business' ORDER BY tbl_Aplaws.Level2;
anyone know how to make this work?
Hello,
I have a strange problem: one of my comboboxe is looking up a column in one of my table. Some of the record can be duplicated so I decided to change SELECT to SELECT DISTINCT in my SQL for the row source but it doesn't seem to change anything. Is anybody's got an idea why?
Ok , I will try and explain this as best I can.
I have a database and would like to run a DISTINCT query ( which I can do no problems ) I would also like to count the number of records at the same time. Say for example my database looked like this
Name Fruit
Adam Apple
Carrie Apple
Hollie Apple
Joe Apple
Adam Orange
Carrie Orange
Hollie Orange
Joe Orange
What I would like it to do is Select the distinct names and list them once ( I can do this bit )
Adam
Carrie
Hollie
Joe
I would then like to count the number of records found for each name and put it next to the relevant name
for example Adam (2) (one apple and one orange)
How would I write the actual query
I hope this makes sense.
Thanks in advance
Adam
PS , great site btw

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to run a query that queries and returns several data fields with one of them being an ID field. I want to select distinct IDs only, however, I don't think just adding a 'distinct' qualifier prior the ID field will do it--the only field that I want to be distinct is the ID, the others it doesn't matter.
how to add a 'distinct' qualifier to a query that just applies to one field only (the ID field)?
Select distinct ID, firstName, lastName, DOB, City from Person where City = "NYC";
I am working in Access 2003. I have a combo box based on the query below that works perfectly except that it shows duplicate Department Names in the combo box. I have not been able to find any way to show the Department Name only once. I have tried putting in SELECT DISTINCT in the string, but to no avail I recieve an error :
ORDER By clause(DepartmentMembers.[DepartmentMembers]) conflicts with DISTINCT.
Any light you can shed on this subject would be greatly appriciated. I have been researching forums for over two days and have not been able to generate a solution to this. Thank you in advance!
SELECT Departments.[Department Name], DATA.[BUILDING LOCATIONS], DATA.[REPORTS TO], DATA.[DIRECTOR NAME], DATA.[NUMBER OF PERSONNEL], DATA.[PC NAMING CONVENTION], DATA.[CISCO SWITCH(ES) ATTACHED], DATA.[SERVER-BASED APPLICATIONS USED], DATA.[DEPARTMENT SHARE (Z:DRIVE)], DATA.[EXTERNAL SERVERS], DATA.[Department ID]
FROM (DATA INNER JOIN DepartmentMembers ON DATA.[Department ID]=DepartmentMembers.[Department ID]) INNER JOIN Departments ON (Departments.[Department ID]=DepartmentMembers.[Department ID]) AND (DATA.[Department ID]=Departments.[Department ID])
ORDER BY Departments.[Department Name], DepartmentMembers.[Department Members];
I am wanting to use the SELECT DISTINCT clause to choose unique records from a DB but I need my query to give me all of the fields of the table. When I run a SQL statement such as:
Code:SELECT DISTINCT ContactID, FirstName, LastName, ContactType, SpecialtyFROM Contact_Specialties
I do not get distinct Names because the full row is distinct yet the ContactID is not distinct on its own.
How do I SELECT the all of the fields that I want while only having the ContactID be distinct?
Please help I am a newbie.

Is it possible to change this query to search for either a Name or by an employee ID number? The query runs a report on after update. Currently I can only enter the name not the employee ID
Code:
SELECT DISTINCTROW First(Inventory.Employee) AS FirstOfEmployee, Inventory.[Employee ID]
FROM Inventory GROUP BY Inventory.[Employee ID] ORDER BY First(Inventory.Employee);
Is it possible to use a variable in the first line of the following code?
Code:
SELECT DISTINCT [June-11].[Full Name], [June-11].[Level 8 Name]
FROM [June-11]
WHERE ((([June-11].[Level 6 Name])="SMITH, BOB") AND ((Exists (SELECT * FROM [July-11]
WHERE [June-11].[Full Name] = [July-11].[Full Name]))=False));
I have a combo box that lists months and I want to be able to choose which month goes in the SELECT DISTINCT line of code. So, where it says [June-11], I would like it to reference my combo box so I can select the month.
Hi
I am trying to use a query to populate a combo box. works fine as I am using one table. I want to select DISTINCT records which works. However i need the ID of that record in the select statement. Anyone know how to select two things in a select distinct query??
Select DISTINCT tbl_Aplaws.Level2 FROM tbl_Aplaws WHERE tbl_Aplaws.Level1 = 'Business' ORDER BY tbl_Aplaws.Level2;
this works. but i need to select the tbl_Aplaws.AplawID as well. throws errors
I am trying to write a query that will select distinct values from three columns. The table name is Hoods. The columns are C1, C2, and C3. All three columns contain colors and can have the same values, but I only need to have a particular color selected once. For instance, all three columns contain "Black", but "Black" should only be listed once. The result of the query will be used in a drop down list.
The following works for one column:
SELECT DISTINCT [Hoods].[C1]
FROM Hoods
WHERE C1<>"";
Are there any suggestions?
Thanks
I have the following SQL which returns rows of distinct numbers that are calculated from a field.
SELECT Distinct (Left([ProjectID],4)) AS NumberOfCalls
FROM tblProject;
ProjectID looks something like this : 1307-IND-001 and NumberOfCalls looks like : 1307
I need to count the number of unique "NumberOfCalls" entries that there are in a list of about 50 rows. Currently the SQL returns a list of numbers like this:
1307
1311
1401
etc...
I just want NumberOfCalls to show "3". Is there an easy way to do this?

I am trying to get a combo box to only show unique values, but I can't get it to work properly - it still shows duplicates in the list.
The Row Source is set to
SELECT DISTINCT Areas.ID, Areas.Area FROM Areas ORDER BY Areas.Area;
And the combo is bound to column 2
I have a database with an import process which normalises incoming data and appends to various tables. No issues with that. I also have a function within that process which counts the number of new entries for a summary popup when the process has completed.This works by querying the staging table, prior to the append, into a recordset and using the .RecordCount to increment the count (multiple files can be imported at once so this effectively provides a running count, per file, to give a total for the whole import)
I thought it was working fine but this morning I noticed that the count which appeared on the popup was 1 greater than the number of actual new records. I checked the source files and noticed that, for whatever reason, there was a duplicate entry in there. So I presume that's why the count was out by 1.
There's no integrity issue in the main tables as the composite primary keys ensure that duplication shouldn't be a problem. Indeed, the record in question, duplicated in the source, appears only once in the main table post-import. So not too worried about that.
However, I need the count in the popup to be accurate (it tells the users how many new entries require further investugation). And what's puzzling me is that I use DISTINCT in the query, which I would have thought should eliminate any potential dupes in the recordset and thus provide the correct count. It seems it doesn't?
Code:
Public lngNewBalancesTBI As Long ' Defined in a separate module...
-------
Dim dbs As Database
Dim rst As Recordset
Dim strSQL As String
[code]....
Why the dupe, which is still present in the staging table, also makes it over to the recordset, even though I'm using DISTINCT?
I am currently trying to make a form which will generate a report for the users. Currently the form has 3 combo boxes where users select which fields they want displayed from the table in the report. They also have sorting options next to them (Asc or Desc). I am now trying to put in a multi select list box under each combo box to allow users to filter the report to their liking. Currently I am trying to pull distinct values from the specific field of the table and display them in the listbox for users to select.
I have tried using vba to set me.filter1.rowsource = SELECT DISTINCT me.combo1 FROM EVAP_Database, but this doesnt seem to work. I have also tried a few other codes and still no luck.
Table: EVAP Database
Combo: Combo1
Filter Listbox: Filter1
I remember reading a tut on how to count records using Running totals in a report - but I cannot remember where I read it. It went something like this.
In the section that you want to count, add a field with record source '=1' and make it a running total for the group.
In the header (one level up from where the running total resides) add a field with record source =Max(RunningTotalField)
Although the 'intellisense' sees my 'RunningTotalField' when I create the above mentioned formula, when I run the report, its asking me to input the value for the 'RunningTotalField'?
Have I confused some concepts or am I on the right track?
I'm creating a report for an imaginary "medical clinic's database", the intended function of which is described as follows: "Create a statistic that shows the total number of distinct drugs prescribed to a patient."
Where I'm at:
I've created a query called UniqueDrugs containing drug and patient info. The SQL is:
Quote:
SELECT DISTINCT Drugs.Drug_Name, Patients.[Patient _ID]
FROM Patients INNER JOIN (Drugs INNER JOIN Prescriptions ON Drugs.[Drug_ID] = Prescriptions.[Drug_ID]) ON Patients.[Patient _ID] = Prescriptions.[Patient_ID]
GROUP BY Drugs.Drug_Name, Patients.[Patient _ID]
ORDER BY Patients.[Patient _ID];
The results of this query seem to be what I need. All I need is for the count formula that I use to return the number of distinct drug names there are that are related to a patient's ID.
I've created a report and I've put the following formula into a text box:
=DCount("[Drug_Name]","[UniqueDrugs]","[Patient_ID]=[PID]")
Where PID is the name of another text box in the report that contains the Patient ID that I want to compare to the drug names returned by the query.
However, this *always* results in #Error, no matter how I change the formula.I have been led to believe that syntax is not the issue, as the following formula worked as intended for a different task:
=DCount("[Prescription_Date]","[UniqueYearQuery]","[Patient_ID]=[PID]")
How do I use a DCount to return the number of different drugs that have been prescribed to a patient?
If it did not require the number of different drugs, I would simply use the following formula, which works just fine:
=Count(Drug_Name)
SELECT qryHoursReq.VolunteerId, qryHoursReq.Name, qryHoursReq.Program, Sum(qryHoursReq.Total_Time) AS SumOfTotal_Time, qryHoursReq.S_date
FROM qryHoursReq
GROUP BY qryHoursReq.VolunteerId, qryHoursReq.Name, qryHoursReq.Program, qryHoursReq.S_date
HAVING (((qryHoursReq.S_date) Between [startdate] And [enddate]));
This is my query
I'm trying to get a count of distinct volunteerID in an unbound textbox on report.
If I use =Count(*) I get 2 when I put in date parameters and it groups by program
This is kind of correct, but, these 2 are the same person, she had different days she participated.
What code can I use for only get a count of 1
FOrgot to mention, when I use the DCount with numerous examples, I get #Error
Hi, Wish if some one could help me ASAP.
I have a table which contains name, tel, email
i need to import only records which have distinct email.
I do need need to import data of all three fields but only which has distinct email.
As there are number of record which are duplicate.
They have different names but same email.
So i need to condition only for distinct email but dump the data in a new table with all three records.
so same names can have different email.
but same email can't have duplicate email.
So need only records which have distinct email.
Please help .......
I have data which consists of:
xxxxx123 A.Nother 123456
xxxxx123 B.Jones 123457
xxxxx456 D.Smith 123458
xxxxx456 Z.Zephir 123489
How would I ensure that the query returned only unique rows (where column 1 is unique) based on the first alphabetical record of column 2?
Any ideas?
I have a column which contains "text digit text" as "AAA 222 BBB". The numbers of letters or digits can vary.
I need to SELECT the column which contains digits in a specific interval. For Example I have
"DFS 673 JKK"
"A 3454 LJLJ"
"SD 854 JKLJD"
I need to SELECT the column which contains 600 < Digit < 700 the result of the query in this case would be "DFS 673 JKK" because 673 is between 600 and 700.
Thanx for any clue or suggestion...
i won't go into details except i am doing databases for cemeteries - very complicated
example
i have come across two people who have the same name, date of death, buried in the same grave on the same day but are not related and must have seperate records!!
my main table has 6 primary keys. [even then i have 2 duplicates who are not related]
anyway one of the problems is this
i have a main form with 2 subforms. the main form is unbounded. i need to copy information from 1 of 4 queries run by the main form [QBF] to one of the subforms. i don't know which query untill i view the data.
when i know which one, i press a command button which copies the information to one of the subforms. when i repeat the actions above instead on the new query data going into a new record on the subform it overwrites the existing data instead of pasting it into a new record.
i have tried setfocus command - this works only if i click on the subform and activate it [this defeats the object of the command as i might just as well click in a new record box on the subform].
in essence i do not need to activate this subform at all. i just need to check if a record exists and if it does goto a new record [again this works only if i physically click on the form]
any ideas how i can force the cursor to goto a new record without physically clicking on the subform??
thanks
