Reports :: Combining Same Values From Two Fields
Aug 21, 2013
I would like to make a report to show how many employees and which employees are attending to which colleges/universities.
In my data (800 records), I have two fields which is "College 1" and "College 2" for each employee.
There are values that are enter in college 1 for some employees, other employees have the same value that is enter in in college 2. How do I get to show a report that has all the employees who attended the same college in either college 1 or 2?
For instance, this is my raw data:
Name - College 1 - College 2
Bob - University of HI - Honolulu CC
Sandy - Honolulu CC - University of HI
Clare - Kapiolani CC - University of HI
John - University of HI - Windardward CC
I want my report to show:
Colleges -
University of HI
Bob
Sandy
Clare
John
Honolulu CC
Bob
Sandy
Kapiolani CC
Clare
Windard CC
John

I'm creating a query which pulls together the numerical values of 32 separate fields. Each field has the potential to have a value in it ranging between 1 and 9, but most fields will be blank.
I want to prefix the value (if the value is not null) with a 2 or 3 character-long code relating to the field name.I then want to combine them all together in a query so I can easily copy and paste the output to a spreadsheet.Here is what I have so far, with just 9 of the field names, and it's already looking a bit clunky.
Code:
IIf(IsNull([zam_adm]),"","ADM") & [zam_adm] & " " &
IIf(IsNull([zam_cts]),"","CTS") & [zam_cts] & " " &
IIf(IsNull([zam_crs]),"","CRS") & [zam_crs]& " " &
IIf(IsNull([zam_IPB]),"","IPB") & [zam_IPB]& " " &
IIf(IsNull([zam_opr]),"","OPR") & [zam_opr]& " " &
IIf(IsNull([zam_owl]),"","OWL") & [zam_owl]& " " &
IIf(IsNull([zam_pmi]),"","PMI") & [zam_pmi]& " " &
IIf(IsNull([zam_wl]),"","WL") & [zam_wl]& " " &
IIf(IsNull([zam_sgt]),"","SGT") & [zam_sgt]
The output, unfortunately, is putting spaces between empty fields and I'm not sure how to prevent this in the syntax?

I trying to combine three columns that I have into one column without combining fields.
Currently what I have:
(see image below)
What I want:
ID-----MOC
##----name1
##----name2
##----name3
##----name4
##----name5
etc
The list I have will be much longer and will be changing frequently, which is why I can't just go on excel and manually do this.

I am trying to get calculated fields in my report to work but zero values in the data are throwing up #Div/0! and #Error! and #Num!
The main data fields I am trying to work with are:
VehicleReading
PreviousReading
VehicleLitres
My aim is to track mileage and consumption for a fleet of vehicles and show daily and weekly averages in mileage and consumption and then to flag 20% increase in consumption.
I have a calculated field in my report named Kilometers,
= [VehicleReading]-[PreviousReading]
and also a calculated field named Consumption,
=[Kilometers]/[VehicleLitres]
My sum and average calculation fields in the group footers are only working where there are values above zero in the Kilometer and VehicleLitres and Consumption fields.
In reality there are some days where there has been no travel, so some records will have a zero for the Kilometers field and there are also days when there has been no refueling so there is a zero for the VehicleLitres field.
I have tried using the expression builder to create an IIf function but to no avail.
I have tried copying the syntax suggested by the Expression builder:
«Expr» IIf («expr». «truepart». «falsepart»)
I know I need to get those zero's to fail in the calculation but as I said before all of the suggested expressions I have tried fail due to syntax!

I have a report that is based on a query.
The query has two fields. Start and End Dates.
When I run the query the Parameter box asks for the dates by using <[Date1] and >[Date2]
What I want is to have 2 fields at the top of the report, that display the values I enter in these boxes?

Suppose we have a report that outlines several fields, one field shows the City. In the report, this week, we see 10 records "New York", 8 records "Houston", 7 records "London", 3 records "Paris" and so on.
Next week's report outlines different cities and different number of records. I need to have in the report footer a "recapitulation" , a field that would say :
New York 10
Houston 8
London 7
Paris 3
Total 28
Next week cities and number of records might not be the same, we may have
Tokyo 12
Singapore 14
New York 6
London 7
Can i make my report in that way that it will count the values without using VBA ? I tried the count values option but it counts the overall report, does not take into consideration the different values.

I am pretty new to access and struggling with a query problem. I currently have a table containing data like:
Name_____________Color Chosen
Bill..............................Red
Bill..............................Blue
Tom............................Red
Mark...........................Green
Bill..............................Green
Tom............................Blue
And I would like to be able to get to
Name______________Colors Chosen
Bill..............................Red, Blue, Green
Tom............................Red, Blue
Mark...........................Green
Can anyone suggest a query to get me this second table. Theoretically the maximum number of Colors that one person can choose is 4.
Many thanks in advance

I basically have two yes/no fields in an access table. I want field one to have the value yes if field two has value no, and the other way around.
I had a look at the Boolean operators, but im not sure where to go from there.

I have created two queries which calculates a total. I want to add the values of the two queries in a third query to give me a grand total.
When I try to create this third query, it gives me an error saying that the fields cannot be used from two different queries. So I'm just wondering whether this is possible or is there any other way of doing this.

I'm trying to create a text box on a form which displays a value based on numerous criteria.
Basically I manage a database of employees. Some are external employees, some are internal. Some have left the organisation, and some are still employees.
I have two fields which need to be pulled into this expression:
is_leaver - text box, with value either "Yes" or NULL
organisation - name of organisation (text)... lets say my organisation is called Happy People Ltd
The text box I have is called employee_status
I can see that there are 4 possible combinations:
1. Internal Employee - Is an internal employee and still works here
2. Internal Ex-Employee - Is an internal employee but has left
3. External Employee - Is an external employee who still works here
4. External Ex-Employee - Is an external employee who has left
So far I've managed this:
Code:
=IIf(IsNull([is_leaver]),"Employee","Ex-Employee")
This displays whether they're an employee or ex-employee. How would I form the expression to combine the two fields, and calcuate whether they're internal or external?
Due to the way the form is set up I don't want to have two separate text boxes and would prefer to combine it.

I am working with an Excel file of raw data aggregated from an annual customer relationship survey that has been sent out since 2010. The file has approximately 20,000 rows, meaning the survey has been taken around 20,000 times. Unfortunately, each time a customer takes the survey, it is included in the raw data as a separate entry. Therefore the file has numerous duplicate email addresses, corresponding with unique data for each time the survey was taken. Another issue regarding the data, is that in the first year the survey was sent out, the distribution mechanism "broke" and the survey was sent out multiple times (and completed multiple times) in the same year by the same customer, so the surveys are not necessarily uniformly distributed, if that makes sense.
I have been interested in isolating the common respondents (those who have taken the survey across multiple years, albeit not necessarily consecutive years). Up to this point, these respondents have been isolated manually using a pivot table, however I am now looking to enter the raw data into SPSS (a statistical analysis package), in order to view the drivers of these common respondents.
Therefore, I would like to be able to isolate these common respondents and the data corresponding with their surveys from the raw data in a separate worksheet or file. I have tried various formulas to do so in Excel to no avail. Is there anyway to accomplish this in Access or would a more complex database be needed?
Ideally the final product would have the common respondents' information from multiple surveys in one row and would be able to be filtered by feedback date (found in the raw data), so that hypothetically one could select a month and be able to tell how many customers considered to be common respondents completed a survey within that month.

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'm trying to create my own database dealing with hiring bikes on a daily basis.
I have created a form for the basic input, including StartDate, StartTime, EndDate and EndTime, followed by TotalDays. I added the time field so that if a client brings a bike back an hour or two after the pickup time on a later date (sounds complicated - e.g he takes it on Monday at 12pm until Thursday 14pm) then he would be charged for an extra day. It is similar to the car rental system used worldwide.
The TotalDays is currently using a simple expression =EndDate-StartDate.
Is there any way to make the form incorporate the time difference so that if EndTime-StartTime>1 then it would add an extra day to the "=EndDate-StartDate" calculation.

Hello,
I need to find a way to modify the following structure:
Name, Page, Grid
Acton Rd, G10, 12
Acton Rd, G10, 4
Acton Rd, G10, 8
Adams Ct, F6, 2
Into something like this:
Name Page Grid
Acton Rd, G10, '4, 8, 12'
Adams Ct, F6, '2'
What is the best way to go about tackling this?? I need to create this in a table so that I can export it from Access and into a .dbf to be used with another program.
Thanks,

I have a form (DropDown form) that has 3 drop down fields, you select your values from the drop downs and you would push a command button that runs an event procedure which runs a query (DropDown qry test). The user should have the option of picking any combination of fields to filter by. Or no combination, which would return all values in all fields. So I am basically using the form as parameter's for the query.
The problem I'm having is that my query is returning values for one field AND values for another field. Even if the other values selected are not in the same record. It's not combining the fields together to filter. For example: you pick a Project name and Supplier name, the query will return records that have the project name you selected but it will also return records with the supplier name you selected that have a different project name.
I've attached screen shots of the form and the design view of the query (the screen shot cut off the last column name. It is meant to say "Expr3: [Forms]![DropDown form]![Combo7]").
Using Windows 7,
Access 2010
Is there a way to select multiple values from the drop downs?

I have 2 seperate fields within a select query (In this example Field 1 - Country and Field 2 Number).
I have combined the 2 together into one field.
However a space appears within my results i.e
Field 1 Country Field 2 - Number
----------------- -------------------
England 4
USA 10
Combined fields:
Field 3 - Combined Country + Number
--------------------------------------------
England 4
USA 10
How can I remove this space within Field 3
Thanks

Hay Folks,
I'm having trouble with a subform. My subform (dataform) has a lot of fields. I want to reduce them by combining some fields with an expression. This would save some space on the form.
The problem.
I cant get the expression right to show real values instead of key-values.
Here's the sample expression for the control-field:
=[Roadtype] & [Rnumb] & "-" & [position] & " " & [from] & "-" & [to] & " " & [lanetype] & [letter]
Most fields are of the lookup type, which have a rowsource-expression to show the desired value. I.e. for [lanetype]...
SELECT [qryBPSverhardebaansoort].[lanetype], [qryBPSverhardebaansoort].[Omschrijving] FROM qryBPSverhardebaansoort;
Can anybody help me on track?
Thanks a lot.

I have fields lastname, firstname, spousefirstname, spouselastname -
I would like to display:
Koenig, Mark & Jane (not a problem)
- but in some cases the spouselastname is different so then I would like to display:
Koenig, Mark & Jane Doeinger
This is how it displays with my code:
Koenig, Mark & Jane & Doeniger
I can't seem to get rid of the & between the spousefirstname and spouselastname.
Code:SELECT Potentials.Agent, [LastName] & ", " & [FirstName] & IIf([SpouseFirstName] Is Null Or [SpouseFirstName]=""," "," & " & [SpouseFirstName]) & IIf([SpouseLastName] Is Null Or [SpouseLastName]=""," "," & " & [SpouseLastName]) AS Expr1, Potentials.Address, Potentials.City, Potentials.State, Potentials.ZipFROM Potentials;
How do I get rid of the second &

Hello
I have a political database with a separate field for street number, street name and apartment number. I've been asked to prepare a query that will only list the first member of a household. Example, the query would only show one member from a two person household if they both have the same address. I figured that I would somehow prepare a query that combined these 3 fields in a expression and then display the total row and choose FIRST. That didn't work, perhaps my syntax was off. Here's what I tried:
Expression: (Trim(StrConv([AddressStreetNumber]&" "&[AddressAptNumber]&" "[AddressStreetName],3)
Then I set the Total line to FIRST
Is it my syntax or is it that I can't join separate fields together like you can in a report ?

Not exactly sure if a query is what I need in this situation or if it is what I need how to get there.
In the attached db example on the case form
there is a section for technicians to go in and take credit for steps that they performed as part of the overall case
So clv1 might be done by User A
Then clv2 might be done by User B
But the next case it might be switched.
I need a method getting the sum of the total clv's field for each technician in two different ways
1 would be the total clvs for USer A for the current month,
2nd would be the total for the year- or actually a prompt for a date range
Tried using the query wizard but it doesnt combine the names
Then I tried an individual query on each set - that worked but then I only get the ones in the first column - not all the clvs that they did.
Hope that makes sense - is there a way to do this or am I in the wrong forum for trying to figure out a way?
Well the db example is imb so it cannot be attached
Thanks for any help.
