Return Greatest Value
Oct 31, 2006
I have a table that has multiple Account Numbers and their Balances, I need to only pull the records that have the largest value.
Example: Acct# Balance
2 $1.00
2 $500.00
2 $300.00
3 $25.00
3 $400.00
I need my query to pull only these records Acct # Balance
2 $500.00
3 $400.00
Please help me figure out how to only pull those records

Situation:
When logging into my network I record several key information about every computer. The only two fields that concern me at the moment are Username and Computername. I am trying to retrieve the user of each machine. My problem is sometimes users will log into machines that are not theirs. This situation can make my queries somewhat inacurate as I will explain below.
Sample data:
Username Computername
JSmith Comp1
TJones Comp2
TJones Comp1
JSmith Comp1
Perfect World:
What I would like is to individualise this information to the specific party in one complete sql statement. So that I can run the statment with each machine as the variable and allow it to pull the appropriate information for the user.
Example:
JSmith uses comp1
Tjones uses comp2
What I have tried so far:
Max() this seems to treat them as alphabetic characters and returns the user with the highest alpha/numeric value that has logged onto the computer.
Min() see Max()
Last() this seems to be the most accurate option I have, because it should be correct 90% of the time. Though it still has its inherent flaws as the primary user does not have to be the last user necessarily.
I have tried to look for information in both my help file and this website, if someone would please point me in a direction I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.

Hi everyone
This seems like a really simple problem, but I can't figure it out...
-I have a table that contains machine problems, and their duration times
-I made a query that filters the problems based on the date of occurance, and adds up the duration times for a specified problem for the date range
Question: How do I get it to display the top 5 (i.e. 5 with the longest duration) problems? Can the max function work for more than one record?
:confused:

I have a table that keeps track of how many times an account is listed. I want to write a query that will only return the greatest number of occurences for that account. For example if acct 12345 has 3 occurences in the database I only want to return the information that is associated with the #3 occurence. As stated there is a field that calculates the number of occurences for each account so in this case there would be a record for 1, 2, and 3 occurence so I only want to see #3. Hope that makes sense. Thanks!

I have a simple UDF that takes a string and returns a variant, which is an array of strings Example Input "Brick Wall" Return value would be a variant array with first element "Brick" and and second element "Wall" Now I have a table with a field of strings, and I want to make a query that returns all the results from the function, one per line.
So if my input table looks like this
[strField]
"kick the ball"
"return the pass"
my query result should looks like this
[Orig] [new]
"kick the ball" "kick"
"kick the ball" "the"
"kick the ball" "ball"
"return the pass" "return"
"return the pass" "the"
"return the pass" "pass"
Last time I had to do something like this I used VBA exclusively, with ADO objects, but I thought a query based solution would be easier.
With my current data the largest return array size my function returns is 27 elements but I wouldn't want to rely on that number being fixed.

Hi:
Using MS Access 2000.
Maybe I've been looking at the monitor for too long but... I need to have a query return data based on a date field or return all dates greater than 1/1/2001 if left blank.
criteria: [Enter date - mm/dd] Or >#1/1/2001#
When I leave it blank it gives me all dates as it's supposed to but when I type a date it does not filter by that date, I still get everything.
I also tried [Enter date - mm/dd] Or Like "*" but it behaves the same way. I know it has got to be easy but my skull may be too thick to let me see it.
Any help is appreciated.
:confused:

Hi,
In a query, I am using the following code to return the average length of each tenancy. This works fine unless the length is 0. If so, it only brings back 'blank'. How can I change this code to return a 0 value?
Tenure Length AVG: IIf([Average Tenure Length]>0,Format([Average Tenure Length],"Fixed",Format(0,"Fixed")))
Thanks in advance

Hi There,
Can anyone tell me how to send a Carrage Return in Access? When I try to use the 'SendKeys with{Enter}', Access starts to run in an endless loop that seems to be some Wizard. All I want to do is go to a new line within the same text field.
Can any one help me? I'm an amature at Access and VBA.

I am creating a database for a hyperthetical car hire company. I have created three tables, customer table, car table and bookng table. The customer table is linked to the booking table using a Customer ID (autonumber). The car table is linked to the booking table using NumberPlate. The primary key for the booking table is Booking ID.
The cars are catagorised in different groups e.g. hatchback, sports car etc. The customer will choose a car type which is entered into the booking table. They will also enter the dates for which they want to hire their car.
I want my database to take these dates and the type of car, search through the car table and return a list of cars of that type which are availiable on these dates.
Can this be done???

Hi.
I have 2 queries, one that returns all the project numbers in the db (say 50 projects), and one that returns some of the project numbers (say 30 projects)
I can make a query that combines the 2 queries, and it returns project numbers that are in both queries (30 projects), but I would like the query to return the 20 projects that are in first query, but NOT in the second query.......does this make sense?
I am sure this is fairly easy.......it has just got me stumped!!
Many Thanks.
Frank.

hi,
I have a table that contains itemcodes and prices. An example of the records would be:
<Item Code> <Price>
Product001 £34.56
Product001 £49.23
Product001 £23.22
Product001 £98.43
Product002 £12.45
Product002 £54.34
Product002 £25.51
Product002 £76.84
Product002 £14.97
I would like to run a query that returns the lowest value price for each Item code. So in this example it would return:
<Item Code> <Price>
Product001 £23.22
Product002 £12.45
Does anyone know the criteria code in the query design view for this problem?
I know it sounds silly, but there are unique codes in another field, i just need to query against these fields.
Thank you for your help.

I have three queries that count non-compliant records in each of three catagories per month. One catagory has records for both Jan and Feb and returns the rersults as follows:
Jan 3
Feb 4
The other two vatagories however have no non-compliant records for January so they return as follows:
Feb 2
Feb 1
I wanted to tie the three queries together in the form for reporting:
Cat 1 Cat 2 Cat 3
Jan 3 0 0
Feb 4 2 1
Is there any way for the queries to return a zero for any month with no records rather than not returning the month at all? Thanks for any help.

This is probably the first of many questions. I have an Access2000 DB with two tables. Each has a field called ParID. I want to have a form with Table1 and Table2 listed. I want to query on a parcel number I keyin. If Table1 has the number in it, I want the form to note such. The same goes for Table2.
Example: Keyin: 123
If Table1 has 123 in it and Table2 does not, my form would note:
Table1= YES
Table2= NO
If they both had 123 in it:
Table1= YES
Table2= YES
etc.
Thanks,
SKK

Is there a good way to return an id that is created when I insert values into a database?
So I have this: INSERT INTO assignedReview ( reviewUser, reviewedEmpuser) VALUES (@reviewUser, @reviewedEmpuser);
And from that I want to get the reviewID that is generated (setup as a random autonumber) on the INSERT to pass back the user.

Is it possible to return an age as: 21.45 or 64.93?
I have done some searching and can't find any formatting or code to make it work.
I have changed the field format to Fixed and then it gives: 21.00 or 64.00
I like the 2 decimal places for quick at-a-glance-knowing of the age.
Of course I have a formula that returns an age with decimals in EXCEL, that's why I think it should somehow be possible in Access.

Hello,
I am using DMax() to return the highest date in a table, but really need it to return the second-highest...so, if I had:
14th Feb
10th Dec
1st Jan
I don't want it to return 10th Dec, I want it to return 14th Feb
Any help much appreciated. I am sure there was something like dmax()-1, but that just returns (in my example above) 9th Dec!
Thanks!
