Hi,
In my search form I have 5 creterias and in the query behind it I joined them by AND. the problem is if the user entered only 2 or 3 of those creterias, the query will not return anything.
how can I slove that?
your responses are very appreciated.

I am attempting my first access database which tracks blood components in our medical facility. When a component is issued to a patient there is a button to push which links to a report that runs a query. The user must enter the unique key for the component at a promt, which ensures the report generated will be for that component only. My question is if there is a way to cpture and use that key automatically when pressing the button. If I need to clarify something, please let me know--I may not have the Access developer lingo down yet...

View 1 Replies View RelatedI 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, I have a command button that opens a pdf file. However i will be distributing the database as a runtime package and need to account for people having different versions of adobe reader so need to search for the filepath string where Acord32.exe is found.

I am trying to search for specific text in a field and returns its value. For instance some of string includes Sub, L2L, Temp, Model, or MTM and I would like a query to return these values if found.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI did export the table data into a tabbed delimited format and will include that at the end. If you want to reproduce my bug copy that data in a txt file and import that into the table tblMain. Make a search form and a sub form. the sub form is linked to the table and the main form is unbound with two search buttons.
Problem Statement:The code works fine. I did find a bug that seems to arise with the wild cards when the entire field values are entered. You can replicate the bug by testing the search criteria listed below.
This is a brief example of the bug. A detailed description is near the code below.
If my name is "Devtycoon" and I search "Dev" the SQL statement will build "*Dev*" and it will pull up my name, "Devtycoon". On the contrary if I search "Tycoon" the SQL statement will build "*tycoon*" and it will pull up my name, "Devtycoon". If i search "DevTycoon" the sql statement will build "*Devtycoon*" and no results will be returned. That is buggy because the name is in the database but no wildcards would be needed.
Table structure:
tblMain
ClientID
Surname [text]
Organization [text]
ProgramTitle [text]
City [text]
State[text]
Zip4 [text]
Telephone [text]
Form1 contains the controls for search criteria. Three text box controls are used to filter a sub form control called "DS". The sub form is called sFrmMain and is a datasheet that shows results of the search. there is a button that runs the code and another button that clears search criteria and shows all records. Both button's code set the sub form's record source using an SQL string built using a function that returns a segment of the overall search string using the contents of each control that then is concatenated into a SQL statement used to set the record source.
There is a function for the following components of the SQL statement
SELECT / FROM
WHERE
controlA = me.txtSurname
controlB = me.txtOrganization
controlC = me.txtProgramTitle
This is how you can replicate the bug.
I tested two additional surnames organizations and program titles as follows:
Try example (1). you will get both the 4's and the 14's records returned.
If you type in letter for letter of the second record (the one with the 14's) no records populate. It is like the wild card does not like it if you type in the entire field value. Uncle Gizmo's and Allen Brown's method do the same thing were no records populate if the 14's entire surname organization and program title are entered into the text controls. Can you reproduce this error? Other than that I think either method is bulletproof.
Example criteria
1) put the following criteria in each control then hit the search button
4 surname
4 organization
4 program title
[two records returned]
2) put the following criteria in each control then hit the search button
[no records returned]
14 surname 14
14 organization 14
14 program title 14
Code behind search form:
Code:
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Private Sub cmdShowallRecords_Click()
Dim strSQL0 As String
Me.txtOrganization = ""
Me.txtProgramTitle = ""
Me.txtSurName = ""
strSQL0 = fSQL_SelectFrom & fWhere & fSurName & fOrganization & fProgramTitle
Me.DS.Form.RecordSource = Left(strSQL0, Len(strSQL0) - 5) & ")"

My boss has a form based on a rather large table with a lot of records/fields and she wants to be able to have a field where she can enter something and it will seach every record in the table and return the results in a table. How do I do this?
View 9 Replies View RelatedAll using access 2010. Here's the situation. I built a searchform according to datapigtechnologies video. Used a query with criterias on fields i want to search on the form: ex.
Code:
Like [frm]![frmMyform]![MyField]
It worked fine i thought until i ran the same query outside the form without the criteria field. I filtered the query for the same result and the one used on the search form did not return all data records for that particular result set. Ex. on the searchform; I select the fields I wanted to filter then ran the query. I come up with only 9 records when it should be 18 I get with running the exact same query without the criteria and manually filter the results.
I cannot get my query to return result when I enter the month of "June" as search criteria. June is listed in the table and query, every other month is returned except June.
I have attached two example for your reference.
I have a search form that uses a query to show results of a search, but everytime I press search everything comes up even though I have entered search parameters, even though my search requeries every time and the search used to work before I added new records today. Also when I press the query alone on the navigation pane it asks me for the parameters and then it actually works but it won't when I use my form.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have created a query that will pull the price of a property into the cost field combo box on a booking order subform depending on the values of the start date and property number enter onto the same form.
The query gets the price from the property price table matching on the property no i've selected on the booking order subform and also the start date i've entered on the booking order subform which needs to be between the start and end date fields in the property price table.
Fields in the property price are property price no, property no, start date, end date and price.
Also the booking order subform is a subform on a booking form
This is the query i have created:
SELECT [Property Price].Price
FROM [Property Price]
WHERE (((forms![booking order subform]![start date]) Between [property price].[start date] And [property price].[end date]) And (([Property Price].[Property No])=forms![booking order subform]![property no]));
The problem is when i run the query from the cost combo box the query isn't picking up the fields on the booking order subform instead its bring up a seperate meesage box from parameters start date and property number to be enter.
Can someone give me advise how to make the query use the values in the fields on the booking order subform i enter before running the query. cheers
I am fairly new to access but so far I have been able to get what i need from it, until now. I am trying to find a way of comparing two sets of data to find out an employee's average productivty.
Table 1 -Hours Worked (by day)
- contains 'name' 'date' and '# of hours' worked
- an employee would enter the hours here on a daily basis
Table 2 - Contracts Keyed (by month)
- contains the number of contracts worked that is derived from seperate system
- this is entered on a monthly basis (so for example: John keyed 30 contracts for the month of January)
- the system i am pulling this info from does not have the ability to pull a daily count of contract per employee, only a range of dates and it then provides the sum for that range (unless I ran a query for each day, for each employee which would take me hours)
- employees dont have access to this system to enter their own # of contracts keyed on a daily basis.
- for entry, so far i have just been putting the first of the month and then the # of contracts.
In a nutshell, this is the calculation I am trying to create:
(Sum of "# of hours" for the month) / (total "# of contracts keyed" for the month) = employees average hourly productivity.
I have tried to do this with various types of queries and reports but with no luck, I get a prompt saying that access can't compare the 2 fields.
Is there a way to compare the data that is entered daily with the data i would enter monthly?
I am trying to copy the parameter value that is entered to a variable so that it can be used to run other queries without typing it in over and over. Once my form is finished it will run 4 queries, and the current setup is that I would have to retype the parameter each time.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a report that is fed by a parameter query. When a command button (Command23) is clicked a parameter box opens and the user enters a subsystem number. A report for that subsystem then opens.
I want to open the report with VBA and show a message if the user has failed to enter a subsystem number in the parameter box and just clicked OK.
The problem is I don't know how to refer to the parameter box and detect if it has been left empty before clicking OK. I first tried to use IsNull in an If statement with Command23.Value, but now realize it is the value in the parameter box I am after, not the "value" of Command23.
How can I change my code to detect if the parameter box has not been filled out?
Private Sub Command23_Click()
If IsNull(Command23.Value) Then
MsgBox "You did not enter a Subsystem", vbOKOnly, "No Criteria Entered"
Else
DoCmd.OpenReport "rptTESTInfoBySubsystem", acViewReport
End If

I have an append query that currently looks like this URL...This query automatically adds the machine parameters for a product code and lot number into the running condition log. This is so the user does not have to manually go in and tediously select each machine parameter.
The running condition log also has a date field to specify what day and record number the machine parameter's value was recorded on. When I run the query the appended rows look like this. The product and lot are defined by user parameter and there are actually about 36 machine parameters
Code:
Productstockcode LotNo Day Record Parameter ActualCond
PE-500 130816m71 StockTemp
PE-500 130816m71 Zone 1
PE-500 130816m71 Zone 2
My question is: how do I modify the query to automatically add the date and record number in one shot? It needs to be user defined at the time of the query because this data is not stored anywhere else in the database. For each 36 machine parameters the day and record would be the same.
Is it possible to limit the type of data that can be entered in a query that has a LIKE criteria?
( Like [Enter Data] & "*")
limit to two digits or any number of digits, or limit to numbers only or letters only. .
Hello all,
I realise this issue is a common one and it is usually down to simple typos (I've looked at several similar posts) but none of the advice I've seen has solved my problem. I've designed the following Union Query:
SELECT [Email],[Title],[First_Name],[Last_Name],[Company],[Phone],[Country],[TEST_AND_MEASUR],[REC_AND_PROD],[LOG_AND_TRANSC]
FROM [Region 1]
UNION ALL SELECT [Email],[Title],[First_Name],[Last_Name],[Company],[Phone],[Country],[TEST_AND_MEASUR],[REC_AND_PROD],[LOG_AND_TRANSC]
FROM [Region 2]
UNION ALL SELECT [Email],[Title],[First_Name],[Last_Name],[Company],[Phone],[Country],[TEST_AND_MEASUR],[REC_AND_PROD],[LOG_AND_TRANSC]
FROM [Region 3];
It should be very simple and I've checked it over and over, but when I run the query an Enter Parameter dialog appears prompting me to enter Email.
If I just click OK I get all the records but with the email field blank.
Similarly if I type x@y.com it returns all records but with the email fields all containing x@y.com
Advice would be very much appreciated!! Thank you in advance.

Is it possible to run a basic select query to pull records based on multiple strings entered by a user?
I have a query with field criteria - Like '*' & [Type In MMDBID:-] & '*'
This allows the user to input one MMDBID and the records are retrieved from the db.
I can also use the OR statement in the same field criteria "AB123" OR "BC123", and all records based on those values are pulled back.
But I cannot get the user to input multiple values and I tried amending the SQL string based on the OR criteria above
SQL statement (Like) is below :
SELECT tblFund.MMDBID, tblFund.[Investment Name], tblCodesLive.[IOE Code], tblCodesLive.[Uptix Code], tblFund.[Red Payment Deadline]
FROM (tblFund INNER JOIN tblCodesLive ON tblFund.MMDBID = tblCodesLive.MMDBID) INNER JOIN tblContact ON (tblFund.MMDBID = tblContact.MMDBID) AND (tblCodesLive.MMDBID = tblContact.MMDBID)
WHERE (((tblFund.MMDBID) Like '*' & [Type In MMDBID:-] & '*') AND ((tblFund.Editing)=False) AND ((tblFund.Closed_Fund)=False));
HI, i have a field in a query called [cost_type], these typically contains the values "principle works" or "additional works" how can i set the query up so that it doesn't return the "works" part of the record? Could i just return the first 10 characters of the result?
thanks
Each record in my table has six possible sale dates as a result of cancellations. My problem results when a record is sold twice during the queried time frame (SaleDate1 and SaleDate2). Currently my query uses an if statement and if they are in the same time period, it will only return SaleDate1. I would like to see the record returned twice (once for SaleDate1 and once for SaleDate2). Any suggestions?

Hello all,
Is there a SQL function in Access that will allow it to return (as a field value) the name of the table where a particular record was found?
The reason that I want to do this is because I have a single table (Table A) with building address records counted and broken down by state and by month - but some of the records belong to smaller groups (e.g. Zone 1, Zone 2, etc.) that aren't states, but that I want to count in the crosstab as if they were. There are building addresses on Table A that belong to each of these four groups, so I need to somehow match the records on Table A with the appropriate Zone, and place the name of that Zone in the "State" column of the query results instead of the actual state so that I can then count the results in the same crosstab.
I had the intention of resolving this by creating three tables (with the listings of address information for each Zone #), then matching records in Table A to each Zone table in a query by the address field to get each record's appropriate Zone no.(if available), then using the results of this query in my crosstab - :confused: but I can't figure out how to get Access to create a calculated field that lists from which table a resulting query record came from, so I can't continue.:confused:
Any suggestions, if able, would be appreciated!
