Search For Dates And Where There Is A Blank Field
Sep 15, 2005
What I need to do sounds simple but I am losing my what hair I have left to do it. I have a single table where staff rotate a responsibility every 3 months or so. What I have in one field is the surname of the person currently performing the duty and another with the surname of the person who is next to take on the duty. What I need to query is those posts where a replacement has not been identified for the next say 12 weeks.
e.g. I need to have a query that finds extracts all posts where the field (surname) of the person taking on the role is blank between (date) and (date).
Thanks for any help in advance!

I can alway make a query like the following one to table and return the records:
SELECT * FROM people WHERE PhoneNo<>"";
However, it returns nothing while it should return a lot of records if I make a query like this:
SELECT * FROM people WHERE PhoneNo="";
The PhoneNo file is of text type. As I know, this field is added after the MS database has been put into use for some time.
Can anyone please explain this to me?
Thanks,

Hi
I have created a query which sorts store information by potential opening dates...however, some of the stores are so new there are no potential opening dates as yet.
I would like the stores with blank opening dates to appear at the bottom but when sorting by ascending (which is what I need) these blank dates appear at the top... is there any way around this?
thanks

I have a table tROE with a field listing all dates starting 1/1/10 to date (populated), and three fields for currency exchange rates [USD], [RSD] & [EUR] which are empty and need to be populated. I have another table tROEPartial that has the exchange rates for some of the dates starting 1/1/10 but not all. Their structures are identical. I want to add the exchange rates from tROEPartial to tROE where the dates match, leaving the unmatched fields in tROE blank.

I have a switchboard which runs a google style search query to find people based on their first name, surname, date of birth or NI number on clicking the search button. It uses the following criteria in the query Like "*" & [Forms]![SearchF]![Firstname] & "*" for each of the above fields.
This works perfectly until someone inputs a record that doesn't have anything in one of the fields. ie, full name and DoB, but no NI number. When a record is entered in this way, the table stores the record but the search query cannot find it.

I have a query linked to some combo/txt boxes on a form so the user defines which categories he/she is looking for then presses button and query comes up with relevant results. This works fine if the user inputs information that is actually there, but if they leave it blank it goes all wrong.
The statements I have in the query are as follows:
[Forms]![frmStockControlSigned]![comboSupplier]
[Forms]![frmStockControlSigned]![txtPurchaseOrder]
etc.
I thought the solution may be along the lines of this but it does not work:
=if([Forms]![frmStockControlSigned]![txtDate]=Null,[Forms]![frmStockControlSigned]![txtDate],"*")
basically i want to make it so the user does not have to enter criteria into evey box, thus if every search box is left blank it would show all records "*"

Hi everyone...
I'm a high school student working on an Access project for a summer internship. I needed your assistance in writing a criteria for a select query.
Table1 has the following fields:
ID, First_Name, Last_Name, Org, Email, Status
Only "Email" is mandatory, ID is autonumber, the rest are optional.
I have to create a query that will allow users to search the table with any of the fields above. A user may search with only one field, e.g. all users where "org" = "YMCA"
Presently, I am using the similar criteria for all the fields:
Like "*" & [Forms]![Search]![txt_FirstName] & "*"
The problem occurs when, for example a record exists with the following -
First_Name = Null or Blank
Last_Name = "Smith"
If you search for "Smith" in Last_Name, then the record does not show up, because First_Name in the record is blank.
How can I alter the criteria for it do search correctly?
I already tried:
Like "*" & [Forms]![Search]![txt_FirstName] & "*" & ""
Thanks,
Gautam

I'm creating a search form to filter out data based on certain inputs. My VBA code looks like:
Code:
Private Sub Command18_Click()
On Error GoTo errorcatch
Me.Filter = "([Experiments.Log] Like ""*" & Me.Text21 & "*"") AND ([Expdate] Like ""*" & Me.Text22 & "*"") AND ([BaseSolution] Like ""*" & Me.Text24 & "*"") AND([AddCom] Like ""*" & Me.Text25 & "*"") AND ([Test] Like ""*" & Me.Text26 & "*"") AND ([Plan] Like ""*" & Me.Text23 & "*"")"
Me.FilterOn = True
Exit Sub
errorcatch:
MsgBox "Error #: " & Err.Number & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & Err.Description
End Sub
However, the output does not include records where other fields are blank. I have read that I may need to use Is Null but am not sure how to.

I have created a database for a hyperthetical car hire company. I have a booking table, a customer table and a car table. If a customer books a car starting on one date and ending on another I want the database to generate a list of cars that are not being used at these times. I have worked out that:
old finish date (of all other cars) < new start date (of new booking)
How do I impliment this? I have limited knowladge of MS Access.

Hi all,
I have a table with dates in:
Start Date______End Date
01/03/05_______10/03/05
I have a form where you type in the start and end dates and when you click the search button it runs a query to display all record that have dates between those typed.
The problem i have, is if i were to search for:
Start Date = 02/03/05
End Date = 07/03/05
It would not display the record in bold above, even though it has dates within those in the search criteria. In the query i have the following:
Start Date >=([Forms]![FrmSearch]![TxtStart])
End Date <=([Forms]![FrmSearch]![TxtEnd])
So how do i get the search to recognise these as dates and look for the days between the dates in the table.
Please help :(

Hello!
Hope someone can help. My code behind my command button is not working. It is opening Report1 but not the criteria in the query.
I have a form (form1) with 2 unbound text boxes on, called "txtDatefrm" and "txtDateto" in which dates can be entered. There is also a command button on the form which searches for these dates and then opens a report(Report1). The report's control source is a query. (query1). On the ExpiryDate field in the query I have the criteria:
Between ([forms]![form1]![txtDateFrm]) and ([forms]![form1]![txtDateTo])
Behind the command button I have the code:
Dim stdocname as string
Dim ExpiryDate as Date
txtDateFrm.setfocus
ExpiryDate = txtDateFrm.text
If Trim(ExpiryDate) <>"" Then
stdocname = "Report1"
Docmd.Openreport stdocname,acViewPreview
End if
Many Thanks for any suggestions!:eek:

creating a query using vba. I have a form with FROM and TO textboxes(Formatted as Short Date)....What I'm hoping is:
1. When I put a date in FROM textbox...the query should show records from the date selected onward.
2. When I put a date in TO textbox...the query should show records from the date selected backwards.
3. When I put a date in FROM textbox and TO textbox the query should show data between this two dates?

I am stuck trying to query a table for entries in a date field that are 21 days earlier than the current date. I thought I could use the built in 'Now()' but am struggling.

1. I created a form with some search-fields which are related to a query. Then I added a Subform in which I put some more Search criteria (So that I can easily hide and unhide those additional searchfields). It sounds strange but is necessary ;-). Now I related those searchfields in the subform to the same query. When I run that query a window pops up that I should put in a value in all those searchfields which are in the subform. But I told Access that it should display all rows, if there is no value in those searchfields. Just as I did it with the Searchcriteria in the Main form. Do I have to do something special, when I have a query which is related to two Forms?
2. I want a searchfield to search in three different columns. Usually the value will just be found in one of those columns. As the Table I search is very long and has many searchfields and multiple of those will relate to more than one column, is there an easy way to do it in VBA? As I did it by using the "or" field when designing a query, but this seems very slow and unstable.

I am trying to add up a list of dates that match a criteria... a search box result.
I have tried DCount, and now I'm doing it through SQL, and no matter what combinations I try I still get an error - usually 3075 - Syntax error (missing operator)
But I can't find anything missing - I copy the SQL into a query view and it works perfectly... but it won't work on its own. And I've tried using DCount with the query as a query object, and I get the same error.
Code:
Dim ResultCount As Long
Dim DateSearch As Date
Dim MyDate As String
Dim MyDateAdd As Date
Dim varReturnValue As Variant
[Code] .....
I've used the >= And < option as it solves an issue with Date Time. What operator is missing!?

Hi all
I have a numeric field in a form which initially is set to 0. When the user clicks or tabs to this field, it is blanked out in the got focus event by setting the field to "". This works great. Now, if the user exits the field by clicking elsewhere or tabing out of it, without entering a value, I would like the 0 value to be inserted again. I have tried many things to make this work without any success. Is there someone who knows the right way to do this?
Thanks in advance

I am building a query for a report - I want to concatenate several fields, but if one of them is blank I don't want it added to the concatenation.
Example: LastName= Kamp
FirstName= Jay
SpouseFirstName = ""
It is ok if the SpouseFirstName is not null
Kamp, Jay & Jill
This is what I get when SpouseFirstName="": Kamp, Jay &
What I want to see when SpouseFirstName="": Kamp, Jay
SELECT Inventory.Code, Inventory.MLS, Inventory.Pin, Inventory.LockBox, Inventory.Vacant, concatenate Code: Original - concatenate Code [LastName] & ", " & [FirstName] & " & " & [SpouseFirstName] AS Expr1, [LastName] & ", " & [FirstName] & " & " & [SpouseFirstName] AS Expr1, Inventory.CompanyName, Inventory.Phone, Inventory.Phone2, Inventory.Cell, Inventory.OfficePhone, Inventory.Ext, Inventory.Fax, Inventory.PropertyDesc, Inventory.Address, Inventory.City, Inventory.State, Inventory.Zip, Inventory.email, Inventory.SellerAddress, Inventory.SellerCity, Inventory.SellerState, Inventory.SellerZip, Inventory.TPUser, Inventory.TPPwd, Inventory.Expire, Inventory.ListPrice, Inventory.OriginalListPrice, Inventory.SoldPrice, Inventory.CloseDate, Inventory.Offer, Inventory.LastName

I have the following calculated field in a query:
LoanNo:IIf([Stats].[LoanCnt]>1,[Stats].[LoanCnt] & " Loans",[Loan].[LnNo])
Within its query, it correctly displays the loan number associated with a particular loan.
However, when I run a second query
SELECT LoanNo
FROM qryLoanInfo
it comes up blank for every record (other fields are OK)
Does anyone have any idea what might be happening?

Greetings,
I am running some code to work on a table and I want to blank a date field. It is a stock control system where when a vessel is emptied I would like the updated field to become blank as it is empty and therefore has no history (this is stored in another table.)
The code I have tried to us is; (where updated is a date/time field)
Else
rst![Updated] = " "
rst![Volume] = "0"
End If
rst.Update
rst.Close
The message I am getting is 'Data type conversion error'.
How do I get this field to be blank by code?
Thanks in advance

I know this is a simple question. I searched but could not find what I was looking for. Or it is handled in differently than what I am thinking.
I have a field where I enter a dollar amount. But if I do not enter a dollar amount the field displays $0.00. How can I make this field blank if no dollar amount is entered.
Thanks
For any help I can get

I have a form in access 2010 that prints a document rougly 500 pages in length. I want to know if there is a way to tell the form not to print a particular page if one of the fields on the page returns the word "suspended" and or the field is blank. The page has other data on it, as do they all, but if this particular field comes back null or "suspended" I would rather it just did not print that particular page in its entirety.

I have a very unusual situation where I need the name of a field in an Access table to end with a blank (i.e. space). I tried doing it trivially while in Design View but no dice. I tried it through some SQL along the lines of the following pseudo code
Select [old table].[Address] as [Address2 ], [old table].*
Into [new table]
From [old table]
but the new field's name "Address2 " lost the final space.A third try was through some syntax for an Alter Table statement to add or modify a field. It didn't pan out.
