Hi all.
I've created a database which contains information about stores. I want to have the forms automaticly sorted by the department number.
I've tried to sort the table by department, but when I try to add a department, the sorting doesn't seem to affect the form at all.
Lets say I have department 1,2,3,6,7,8 in the form, and I add department 4, it will be the last post in the form. I want it to be the fourth, and so on..
I'd apreciate some help with this :) Thanks
Here's the database (http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=12934&stc=1&d=1142018915&PHPSESSID=f730b7f11f6983965698faeacbe5a1ee)
I am working with Access 2010, on vista. What I have is a query made up of two tables, one product the other inventory. (see below) query.jpg
In the product table i have a field called "minimum reorder level". In the inventory table i have two fields one called "number in stock" and "number on order". What i want to happen is "number on order" to be filtered by the result, if the "number in stock", is less than "minimum reorder level", if it is, have the result placed in the "number on order" field. EG. if the "number in stock" = 2 and the "minimum reorder level" = 5 then 3 would be placed in the field "number on order" and only the second record from the query would be visible (see below) Query result.jpg The result of this would mean that the field "number on order" would be populated with the result and the and query would also use this to filter the record.
I want to add a number to my results within a query depending on the month and how many results. For example I have 10 results in my query 3 from January, 5 from March and the rest from April. The 3 from January would be 1,2,3. The five in March would be 1,2,3,4,5 and so on. Is it possible to do?
I'm using access 2003.
I there is no result in query, I need the default result zero in my form field. I only use query wizard to create queries.

Hi Everyone,
Could anyone tell me how I sort a field so it sorts by the surname, not the first name? It's one field with 2 names seperated by a space, i.e. George Michael.
Many thanks for any help.

I am doing a database containing names, dates of birth, dates of death etc of my ancestors. Does anyone know the best way of displaying it so I can sort them out by age of death? For example, I want to see someone for example who died aged 70 years and 6 months to be a place above someone who died aged 70 years and 4 months.
View 1 Replies View RelatedIn Quebec there are a lot of place names beginning with "Saint-" or "Sainte-".
When I do an ascending sort on the table itself, these type of names don't seem to follow the expected pattern.
For the names Sainte-Marthe, Sainte-Thérèse, Saint-Ephrem, Saint-Eulalie I should see this order:
Saint-Ephrem, Saint-Eulalie, Sainte-Marthe, Sainte-Thérèse.
Instead, I get Sainte-Marthe, Saint-Ephrem, Sainte-Thérèse, Saint-Eulalie.
The names are spelled exactly as I have them in the table with hyphens and diacritic marks.
Any ideas why there seems to be a problem sorting "Saint-" from "Sainte-?
Yet another question! When I run the report, it gives me the results in alphabetical order (i.e. April August, etc) instead of monthly order... Is there a way to fix this?
Thanks!

I have a field with addresses (numbers and letters) Whenever I try to sort it sorts by the number. How do I get it to only sort by the letters but still include the numbers in the result?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have been trying to solve this Access problem for a couple of weeks. I have 2 Access 2002 files where I import info from a Paradox DB. I have been doing this for 12 years. I just bought a new laptop and transferred the programs over (I didn't reinstall because I don't have a floppy drive). Paradox files have a default of an International sort order.
One of my 2 Access files is now requiring an Ascii sort order. The Paradox forum says that something in the Access file is asking for the Ascii sort sequence. I have to keep bouncing back and forth in the Regedit changing the sort order from International to Ascii and back again to use the 2 files.
Do you know how I can make the 1 Access file ask for the International sort order?
I have a table with an alphanumeric field I want to sort on. If I sort the usual ascending way, data that is numeric is sorted before data that is alpha.
Is there a way to have the alpha data sorted ascending come out ahead of the numeric data srted ascending?
Ex:
Currently,
1
2
3
A
B
c
Desired:
A
B
C
1
2
3
Thanks in advance to all who reply!!!
i have a simple datsbase with 2 fields - drawing number and description.
the drawing numbers are in the formatt STD123 e.t.c.
When I try to sort numerically the order ends up as
STD1
STD10
STD11
STD100
STD101..........
How do I get it to list in true numeric order in report and table view i.e.
STD1
STD2
STD3.......... Please bear in mind that my knowledge of Access is VERY limited. I've tried a search and don't understand about queries and such like. Even so I'd have thought that even the most basic database programmes would be able to handle something as simple as an alpha/numeric sort list....seems not!!!!!

How can I sort string addresses so as to get the correct number order? I know that strings sort on each character, which causes the problem. I have tried some things (with VAL and Len), but was not completely successful. I do not want to enter an address number as 0630, when I want 630.
Why does this not work:IIf(Len(Str(Val([address]))=3),"0" & [address],[address])? Address has 3 and 4 numbers only.
I have a job database where I sort jobs by upcoming, inactive, closed and active. Each has a corresponding number 1-4 respectively. The main table I update the jobs in is the JOB TABLE. I print a weekly report for our weekly meeting but I only want the active jobs in the report. My question is: how do I perform a sort function in the query, so I will have only the active jobs in the database table show in the query? Thanks in advance! If more info is needed I wil post additonal.

I have a table of plant names such as
×Mahoberberis
+Crataegomespilus
Iris
Scilla
Hebe
Geranium
Acorus
Note that the multiplication and plus signs are part of the names.
If I sort the table (A-Z) I get
+Crataegomespilus
×Mahoberberis
Acorus
Geranium
Hebe
Iris
Scilla
What I would like to see is
Acorus
+Crataegomespilus
Geranium
Hebe
Iris
×Mahoberberis
Scilla
I am not a programmer so need to be led by the hand, but can anyone see a way of achieving this which I could copy? My simple mind tells me that I have somehow to suppress the × and + during the sort. But how?
I had been using previous versions of Access, and just recently "upgraded" to 2007. I used the search function, and didn't see exactly what I was looking for, so hopefully I don't get flamed too bad if I missed an obvious thread, but here's my situation:
In the previous versions of Access that I used I would get a sort order like this:
R-256
R-276
R-500
R2325
R2598
now I get the following
R2325
R-256
R2598
R-276
R-500
This is a primary key in my table, so stripping the field it apart, sorting, and reassembling is not really an option. I jumped from Office97 to 2007 with this particular database, so I am not sure when the non-alphanumerics were ignored when it came to sorting, but is there a way to get the hypens to be recognized when it comes to sorting?
Thank you.
Hi,
I'm using DAO in C++ to write data in MS Access table. I found that MS Access will automatically sort those records in ascending order based on the primary key. I need to leave those records based on the write sequence, can I do that?
Thank you in advance:)
Hi there,
Not sure whether I am in the right forum. It is Table, Form and Query.
Have a table which index to sort on 4 fields - Proj, SubProj, Team, SubTeam.
1. I used this Table on a form, the data seems to be in random sequence instead of above.
2. Then I tried to sort it in a query which showed up fine ( as required) in the actual running of the query. However when I used this query in a form, the data doesn't sort as expected.
3. With above 1 and 2, I have also tried the Order Of in the Form properties which still do not do the trick.
can anyone shed somelight on this please.
BTW, After I first created the form, I just rename the record source in form property. Don't know whether this make any differences in the above result.
I have a table structure with many to many relationships. I want to create a query that shows all the contacts and they're related costcenters without repeating the contacts name with every costcenter.
For Example:
Joe Black ES-100-0690
.............ES-110-0149
Jane Smith ES-120-0149
...............ES-115-0690
Etc..
Instead of:
Joe Black ES-100-0690
Joe Black ES-110-0149
Jane Smith ES-120-0149
Jane Smith ES-115-0690
Etc..
Anyone can show mw how this is done?
Thanks!
I have a form that the user can select a report using options through 'group options'. These then open up the report using specific queries. One report many queries.
The queries are the same except for the filter criteria.
I created 1 query then copied the rest and adjusted the criteria. I am sorting on a numerical value.
All the queries sort fine in preview but not in the report except for 1.
If I copy this query and alter the filter criteria it solves the problem.
I want to know what am I missing.
All this is done using VBA.
Cheers

I have the data below in a query in Access, and I want it to sort by the Week Begin date.
I have put a sort on for 'Ascending' but it doesn't work. (Due to the 29th being after the 28th - regardless of month)
Is there any way I can force the sort in this query ?
It must be in the same query though, as I could probably do it by using this query in another one then sorting that. However, I don't want to do that for reasons I won't bore you with.
WeekBegin Count
05/09/05 137
12/09/05 90
19/09/05 22
26/09/05 55
29/08/05 122
PS - I should mention that I think it is because the WekBegin date is an expression based on an actual date field. Therefore I believe it's treating it as some sort of text field.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
J.
