I'm used to doing a data analysis but never had much cause to use Access previously so I'm trying to quickly pick up the essentials for a specific work project:
I need to extract a subset of data from an Access 2000 database and then perform some category operations on that subset - all interactively. So 2 questions please:
1. I'd prefer to do this with two successive queries (just so the logic is plainer to me) the second operating on the results of the first. But I can't immediately see how to submit the results of one query to a second query interactively.
2. If I were to combine both queries into one can I safely assume that the columns will be processed from left to right (as shown in the query designer)? To explain: I want first of all to select a subset of the data and then to do some stats (ie as a 'total' field) on the subset. But I need to ensure that the stats are done on the subset and not the full original table.
A B C D E 10 12 8 4 14 9 10 7 5 12 12 13 10 3 17 10 11 6 6 15
I have figured out how to calculate the regression statistics for A vs B on a query. So it looks like this...
Predicted B Difference between A B m b via regression Predicted and Actual 10 12 .9474 1.7895 11.263 -.737 9 10 .9474 1.7895 10.316 .316 12 13 .9474 1.7895 13.158 .158 10 11 .9474 1.7895 11.263 .263
Question: What I am looking to do is to duplicate this for A vs C, A vs D, A vs E, B vs C, B vs D, and so on until all of the pairs are calculated and put into one table/query. I know I can just create more fields to the right with the A vs C data and continue on that way, but this does not seem very efficient and I am limited in the number of fields that can be created. So it seems that "going down" rather than across makes more sense however I do not know how to move on to the next pair (A vs C and so on).
I thought of running the regression query over and over again and "recording" the data generated into a table. Once again I have the same problem. How do I tell the regression query to run the next pair? If my data is setup incorrectly, I am willing to change that as well.
I have one query that returns a list of all debits in a given year/month/cost element: e.g.
Year Month CE Debit 2007 6 111 100.00 2007 6 153 150.00 2007 6 157 2007 6 294 75.00
and another that returns a list of cost element budgets: e.g.
Year Month CE Budget 2007 6 111 500.00 2007 6 120 75.00 2007 6 153 200.00 2007 6 157 120.00
So you can see there could be budgets with no debits against them, and there could be debits with no budget (either could be zero or null). What i want is to merge the two so that I return ALL possibilities: e.g.
For the lif of me I can't get this to work - I can get all budgets, or all debits, but not a merge of both. Can someone please suggest a solution or point me in the right direction?
WorkTracker - each record is a date, worker name, and chore name completed Chores - list of chores and the allowance received for each Transactions - date, child, and money spent
I have a query that pulls the sum of transactions and the sum of allowance given but I don't know how to add them together.
Code: SELECT DISTINCTROW WorkTracker.Worker, Sum([Allowance]+[MoneyTransfered]) AS Balance FROM Transactions INNER JOIN (Chores INNER JOIN WorkTracker ON Chores.[Chore] = WorkTracker.[Chore]) ON Transactions.Customer = WorkTracker.Worker GROUP BY WorkTracker.Worker;
Have created a simple data collecting database with a simple query to narrow down some of the data , the DB all works fine and some queries are ok, but one the simple query where I want to look a one single set of data.Using the Like "*"&[Enter Search Parameter]&"*" gives me no results.
I have been trying to understand which method to use for looping through excel cells and storing these into access tables. However, I am having difficulty with so little knowledge in vba.
I have lets say two tables (rows for each table are not fixed) in a worksheet and I want to loop through these rows and store each tables (PROJECT PLAN 1 and PROJECT PLAN 2) in a separate table in access.how to loop through the PROJECT PLAN 1 and PROJECT PLAN 2 in excel and store these in table1 and table2 in access
I have these in excel
B3 I have "PROJECT PLAN 1" B4 COMPANY | C4 DESCRIPTION | D4 TIME B5 Google | C5 aaa | D5 10 B6 Microsoft | C6 bbb | D6 11 B7 IBM | C7 ccc | D7 12
next row 8 is blank row and columns
B9 I have "PROJECT PLAN 2" B10 COMPANY | C10 DESCRIPTION | D10 TIME B11 Google | C11 aaa | D11 10 B12 Microsoft | C12 bbb | D12 11 B13 B14(merge cell) IBM | C13 ccc | D13 12 B13 B14(merge cell) IBM | C14 ccc | D14 12
This is the code I have so far:
Code: Dim objXL As Object Dim xlSht As Object Dim xlWB As Object
I have a simple query between two tables joined together by common fields. In my first table (Table 1 - tblLocations) I have information about a building i.e. Location Code, address and total sqft. . In my second table (Table 2 - tblAllocatedSpace), this contains details (Location Code, Room ID, SqFt assigned, etc.) of the space allocated in each building. The two tables are joined together when the “Location Code” in both table match.
In my query, I show the location detail from (Table 1 - tblLocations) and related records from (Table 2 - tblAllocatedSpace). My result looks like the following:
Location Code Sqft Address Assigned Sqft 106067 1,000 600 March Rd 10 106067 1,000 600 March Rd 15 106067 1,000 600 March Rd 12 106067 1,000 600 March Rd 20
The location code, Address and Sqft is rebated each time a space is assigned in (Table 2 – tblAllocatedSpace). When a build a report and need to sum the location Sqft, the number is multiplied by the number of related records in (Table 2 – tblAllocatedSpace). In this example by building total space is 4,000 sqft when I only it to show 1,000.
How do I set to only show the location code and sqft once?
I have an table that contains StudentID, Name and Age. I have imported the data from Excel sheet and there are some records which contains Null Value and some "h", "n/a" etc. I would like to design query which finds the records that are non numeric.
I need to count records based on multiple criteria from two different tables. I have two tables (i.e. "tblTasks" and "tblTaskHistory"). The tables have a one-to-many relationship based on the "TaskID" field. "tblTasks" has a field called "AssignedTo" and "tblTaskHistory" has a field called "TaskStatus". I need to know how many tasks have been "reopened", the "reopened" status is located in the "TaskStatus" field in "tblTaskHistory". I need this count against a unique listing of employees which can be found in the "AssignedTo" field in "tblTasks".
I have a combo box on my form that passes criteria to a simple select query. There are four possible selections to make from the combo box. For some reason, when I select the first option on the list the query runs perfectly. However, if I select the second, third or fourth option from the combo box, the query returns no records, even though I know there are records in my table which should be returned.
I have three tables. Risk, Names and RiskAndNamesJunction table. I have the junction table because I have many to many relation (meaning many people can be connected to one risk and many risks can be connected to one people).
The problem is that If I make a query to show the people related to the risks, if there are many people for one risk then it will put the people in different rows. Meaning that for risk 2 I will have three rows, because there are three people connected to this rows. See the attached file!
What I would like to do is to have a query which (in case there are more than one risk owners) puts the second name in another column, the third name in another column and so on. So I will have only one row per risks.
The attached file is a dummy file, so there are only maximum three names per risk. In the real file the maximum is five names per risk. So I am talking about no more then five extra columns. (So I am talking about a query which would put the first finding in the first extra column, then the second item in the second and so on till five. It there is no third or fourth or fifht item then the columns remain blank).
Unfortunately I have to do this because our mother company works with excel and they are sticking to this format in excel.
We currently manually run 5 different queries then copy and paste this data into 5 separate tabs on 1 workbook, I'm trying to automate some of this process if possible.
I am trying to use the 'transferspreadsheet' action within a macro to run a query and post it into a template excel file, using this code:
Trasfer Type Export Spreadsheet Type Excel 8-10 Table Name (query Name) FIle Name (FIle location) Has field names No Range Blank ---- This does seem to work and puts the data on a new tab on the specified workbook.
However I have a few questions:
1. Can you specify which query gets put onto which tab in excel? The tabs have different fixed names.
2. Can you specify which Cell the data gets pasted into to? As each tab has a set of headers and titles which need to remain.i.e would need to get query 1 to start in cell A4.
3. How would you expand the above out so that it runs all 5 queries, would you just add in multiple transfer spreadsheet actions in the same macro?
I have 3 cross tab queries that are completely identical with the exception of the field that they pivot. Each field is searching for the same values just in different columns, with the end goal being to get the sum of the values for each pivoted column. I'm wondering rather than having 3 almost identical queries is there a way to use a crosstab to sum the values from each of the three fields rather that having 3 queries which then have to be aggregated in a fourth?

I am working on a report that has some special characteristics.
Let's say I have a list of groups of Vendors in a table, complete with VendorID. I have 3 other tables that use the VendorID: Complaints, Complements, and Terminations.
Each of these tables has a date that the Complaint, Complement, and Termination notice was received.
Every Fiscal Quarter, a report is pulled that looks back over the 4 preceding quarters to determine if a 5% threshold has been crossed by any of the vendor-groups in regards to the amount of Complaints they received.
The equation used for that is : (complaints/vendors_in_group)*100
It is imperative that the information has the current fiscal year and fiscal month (which I am tracking with functions from MS website), and I need to be able to store the information attached to the fiscal year and month.So when a user goes to the form and inputs the desired Fiscal Year and Fiscal Month, the database can display the 4 previous quarters of information...split into Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4.
What I would like to have happen is to be able to have one table where the information is stored, quarterly, so that it can be retrieved for the report.
Questions: 1. Is it possible to have one line, per VendorID, that has the total number of Complements, Complaints, and Terminations, as well as the threshold percent stored in a table? Right now, I am getting LOTS of duplicates and blank lines when I try to put them all together. It has the right data, but takes about 10 rows per VendorID.
2. It is very important that the total number of Vendors in a group be captured on that quarterly report, so maintaining that number, in the same table, is essential and must be tied to the VendorID.
3. I have looked at Union Queries and Crosstabs, but I just dont know enough about them to make it work.
I have 3 select queries which Im trying to output to a combo - Ive tried a UNION query but I get an error
ODBC-- call failed ODBC Driver SQLBase.....
Firstly is do the results need to match within a union query? I mean they have no relationship what so ever Im just trying to populate this combo with the same results.
Secondly is there a better way to do it? 2 of the select queries query a linked SQL table and the third is a local table. All of the select queries work on their own.
I have 5 queries that I am running. The first query has the date range parameters set in the field area that I need to run and each additional create table query is based off the results of the previous query.
1. Which is better to use to run all of the queries in one simple step? A macro or a form? I am exporting the final table to excel so that I can make some additional adjustments off of it.
2. How would I setup the date range parameters for the first query if I were to use a macro without going into the query itself and updating the date field? I tried setting up a macro to run the queries by using the OpenQuery action for each of the 5 queries, but I cannot figure out how to do the date range.
So I run cash flow for a business, and we export data from Oracle and insert it into an access database. I have to run about 25 queries, entering in the same parameters for each. We number each week of the year. So for say the first week in January, I would run the first query and it asks: Beginning Week, I enter in 1, then another paramter value asks me the ending week. I have to enter in these parameters for each of the 25 or so queries, and it becomes quite irritating. Each query has a number of columns, but I am only interested in obtaining the sum of one of the columns, titled Distribution amount. So I am looking for something that will run each of my specified queries, then spit out the total of the distribution column for each in a table like.
Query 1: Total Distribution Query 2: Total Distribution etc....
Is there anything that would allow me to do this, with entering in the week parameter once, say week 1 start, week 1 end. and it use those same parameters for each query?
I am trying to run a simple update query to copy data from one column (Addrl1)to another column (Working_Addrl1) within the same file and I can't for the life of me figure it out. Then I need to repeat for addrl2 and addrl3 to working_addrl2 and working_addrl3.
Is there anyway to join 15 queries into 1 (all have the same data from a different source but need merged into 1 large query) rather than doing 12 unmatched queries?
Let's say I have 5 records in the first query, 5 records in the 2nd, and 3 records in the third - I want to end up with 1 query that has 13 records.
I have a DB where you there's 5 tables all linked together by one project ID
tables below
Project , Staff, Asset, allowances, travel, mark up
What I can do is create a new project, then add records to each of the other tables on what different items I require,
i.e. I create a new project - called project one, in the project table I create a record stating, name, time scale, client and location, then I add different records to each of the other tables on what I require all linked to the same project ID. (probably not explained that too well)
Now I want to create a query that lists all the requirements one after the other this will make it easier to create reports and to calculate costing's.
At the moment I have made 5 different queries listing all the data, then have one report containing 5 sub reports to display the data, no this does work.
Ok I am right now making a simple Vendor/Product database to create a line sheet for some sales folks. I have 3 tables: Vendors, Products, and an associate entity Vendors_Products to relate the two. I have a form currently that draws the Vendor Name (primary key) from the Vendor table and the Product Name from the associate entity. This allows me to create new vendors and select current product types from a drop down box. The problem is that the drop down box is too long and it is tiresome when 1 vendor has 10 product types.
Can anyone tell me how to resolve this? I thought it would be better to have option buttons and display all available products. Then you could just click all of the option buttons that apply to that Vendor and it would create the relationships...is this possible?
Help. I am relatively new in working with Queries. I am taking over someone else's database. I would like to do the following" take test results and combine into one query. Here are my variables :q# question, response(numeric),expr (response to text description such as agree, don't know, disagree. ) for questions 1-5(response) are : 1, 2, 3. I use my expr(IIF) to give me my text description: agree, don't know, disagree. Say my 2nd query is questions 6&7 only which response numbers are 1,2 and expr(text desc):Yes or No. My 3rd query is for q# 8,9,10 which are 1, 2, 3 and expr:some, all or none
I would like to accomplish the following:
How do I combine into one big Query
I thought I read somewhere that I could link my query to run one after the other to provide the final result into one table. I hope this is detailed enough
I have a search menu where the user can choose a search option:
1. Search by Date Filed 2. Search by Paid Date 3. Search by Invoice No. 4. Search by Client Name
etc....
I have a query built for each of these options, 14 in all. Is there a way that I could have the user enter more than one option, and link those queries together? For example, they could enter 1 and 4 to search for Client Name on a particular filing date.
I would rather not have to write a query for each and every option...
In a form, the user specifies critera which triggers Query_1. Query_1 finds and lists the primary keys (multiple records) from Table_1 where the specified criteria are true. For this argument, let us say 10 records are found.
One of the fields in Table_2 stores the PKs of Table_1 as foreign keys in a 1-many relationship. Say, there exist 30 records in Table_2 corresponding to the 10 records in Query_1.
I would like to run a query which will isolate these 30 records from Table_2 based on the 10 records in Query_1.
How does such a query work? (somehow I feel that it is something obvious but is missing me!)
