Hi
I'm having a senior moment...
I have a reference field - examples below and need to split into the component parts
example Ref_IDs:
C21/0051,Sheet 18, Sheet 19, E 3, 12/01/07
C21/0052.04, Sheet21 ,E 2
C21/0054, Sheet 23, B 2, 05/01/07
First - ref no, Second - Sheet (note some have more than one), Third - Grid and lastly some have dates, but not all
I've current got two tables, one with Products and the other with Suppliers. The products table has a column in which I may indicate Supplier IDs that carry the product. I'd like to make a report that groups the Products by the Supplier that carries them and I'm having some trouble. The way I see this working is to relate the Supplier ID found in the Product table with the auto generated Supplier ID in the supplier table.
My trouble is this, when the field is set to text I'm able to enter values separated by commas no problem but I can't report on them because I'd be relating a number to a string. How may I overcome this?
I would like update a table column values separated by ; For example
1. ColumA has no data, I want to do an update and place a comma at the end
2. If ColumA has already value do not delete add new valued at the end where ; if found.
My start attempt as follow:
Code:
qry_test= "UPDATE Table1 SET ColumA =" & "Enter Entered ;" & & _
" WHERE ID=" & 1
Set RS = cnnDB.Execute(qry_test)
What do I need to do to add more stuff where ; is found without delete existing value if values exist.
I have a table like this below:
ProductID ProductName
1 AAA
2 BBB
3 CCC
I have a field in another table, like this:
RelatedProducts
AAA,CCC
AAA
AAA,BBB,CCC
I need a field in one of my queries that will return the related products field data like this:
RelatedProducts
1,3
1
1,2,3
I have an access table for SampleTests. Each sample may have multiple tests carried out on it. Each test is one record in the access table and a sample may have multiple records therefore depending on how many tests are to be carried out on this sample. I need to create a query that would have sampleID as one of the fields which it gets from the SampleTests table and then I need the second column to have all the tests associated with that sample ID in the format test1,test2, etc. but I cannot see how I can get access to put these records together separated by a comma.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a single 'text' box on a form that captures test scores. The person inputting the test scores puts in all of the scores separated by commas (77, 85, 100, 75.5).. Up to 6 test scores can be placed in this single text box. The field is formatted for text. What I propose to do is take the numbers in the text box and average them out and then display the test scores average in a number field named 'avescores' next to this field in the form. Once the inputer puts the series of scores into the text box, they would hit an 'update' button next to this box to 'update' the 'avescores' box. Right now they use a number pad and add up the numbers manually then place the average into the avescores box....

I use Access 2003. I am trying to populate a list box with the names of files found in specific folder in my computer. The problem is that if the file name has a comma (,) in it, so the name is being separated in two parts - first what is before a comma and second what is after. I need them exactly as they appear in directory in order to open the files from this list box.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI created a multivalue list in my table. It contains a list of names and a checkbox. I designed the form based on this and am able to check off multiple names. When I go back to look at the table, it stores in each name separated by a comma. So far so good.
When I create a report to display the data, it displays it as 1,2,3..etc., instead of the names separated by a comma.
What do I need to do to display the names ?
I have a list with 50 items in it, I would like to select some of these items by pasting in a coma separated list, is this possible?

So far I have a Multi Select enabled list on which the user selects the serial numbers they want. They then click the "Report" button which will trigger a query based on the selected serial numbers to create a report on those serial numbers.
I have the code for the multi-select list working already. It creates a string of comma separated values that are the serial numbers which are selected in the list. Somehow I need to pass this string to my query so it can use it as a filter.
Here is some of my code:
Code:
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Private Sub Form_Current()
Dim oItem As Variant
Dim bFound As Boolean
[Code] ....
Here's my current query in SQL:
Then finally how to I get the query to execute and create a report based on all of this?
I am trying to create a list of values in a field separated by commas. I have done this in a query as follows:
[Field1]&", "&[Field2]&", "&[Field3] and so on.
However, when Field2 is null, the result is two commas between Field1 and Field2, but I only need one. What function can I use to eliminate the extra commas when fields used in the concatenation are null?
I have a field in a table that I'd like to extra the texts from. The are stored in below format (separated by colons). They don't always the same amount of characters and not all of them have the same amount of texts.
Some may only have Text1:Text2::, while some may have Text1:::Text4.
Text1:Text2:Text3:Text4
I have a few bit fields that, when checked, specific text need to be displayed in a field separated by commas.
Example:
Child 1 = checked
Child 2 = not checked
Child 3 = checked
Child 4 = not checked
Output:
Child 1, Child 3
I did find this sample expression that I am using in another area and it is working perfect and I understand it works based off of string length.
Mid(IIf(Len(Expr1), ", " & Expr1, "") & IIf(Len(Expr2), ", " & Expr2, "") & IIf(Len(Expr3), ", " & Expr3, ""),Len(", ") + 1)
What is the best way to accomplish this?
I have a csv file which seperates each field with a comma. Now i have some fields that contain comma's within them but they are enclose in quotation marks. How would i import it so that it doesnt seperate these fields?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am using Access 2013 and have created a music inventory database.I have a question about formatting some text in a table. One of my tables has the following fields:
tblArtist
Artist ID
DVD Number
Artist Last Name
Artist First Name
Artist Full Name
In my form, I want the artist's name to appear like this:
Mozart, Wolfgang
Dylan, Bob
Beatles
Aerosmith
I know how to format the table to do this, and I know how to construct the form for this. To format the name, in the tblArtist table, I use the following expression in the Artist Full Name field:[Artist Last Name] & ", " & [Artist First Name]
If an artist has only one name, such as Aerosmith, I enter it in the Artist Last Name column. Artists such as The Beatles or The Rolling Stones, I just omit "The."When a one-name artist's full name appears in the form, there is a comma after their name.
Is there a simple way to eliminate the comma if there is no text in the Artist First Name column? If so, what is the simplest, easiest, most practical novice-friendly way to do this?
I have one field containing a couple of 6 digit codes and would like to count the number of codes in the field and write the number to a calculated field. Each code is separated by a comma and a space. How can I count the no of comma within the field?
View 3 Replies View RelatedWith microsofts article, I have made to store multi options value of a list box in a text box with comma. However, since these are IDs being stored, I want these values to run a query and get results also.

I have inherited a database where technicians track equipment that has been repaired.In this database, there is a memo field where the technician lists all the part numbers he / she uses to repair the piece of equipment. This field was never reported against and was strictly used for reference. However, someone is coming to me now and asking that a report be generated with that information. Then she will separate those parts out on her end. because it is a free form field, the technician is not forced to put a comma between each part number. I was wondering if there is a way for the database to go through approximately 62,000 records and ensure that there is a comma between each part number? I was also wondering if there is way to program the database to automatically insert a comma after each part number.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to turn any period entered into a certain textfield on my form into a comma (to prevent access from turning 1.1 into 11 for example).
I have the on dirty event set to me.fieldname = replace(me.fieldname,".",",").
Everything works fine as long as I use the period key on the numpad. However, when I use the regular period key on the keyboard, it does not convert it.
Hi.
Stupid question, but I have Access 97 database with ssn in each record.
I need to create a comma-delimted text file with these ssns.
When I use the export text file with a query that lists each record's ssn, it does not produce comma-delimited file.
How?

Hello again!
Hoping to use SQL to do this in a query.
In a table I have linked to a text document (have to do it that way) there is a field that holds multiple values.
Meaning there can be some fields with nothing, some with a -, soem with a 3 digit number, some with a single digit followed by a space and then a 3 digit number, and lastly a 10 character text with spaces between each.
What i want to do in the query is when it looks at that field, create 2 fields out of it.
When its the 5 character value (the one that is like '2 345') split it, place the 2 in the first new field, and the 345 in the second new field. If the value in the originals field is not in that format, jsut carry over the value to the second new field.
does that make sense?? haha
thanks in advance!
I have a field - Period in the format YYYYMM.
How can I split this value so that I only extract YYYY?
Thanks

I have been able to do this with a work around but it is slow and cumbersone when lots of records are involved and am hoping there is a "proper way" to edo it.
--(&100,,,, 200 ---() 300,400- (500),,,, --600
6 is the maximum number of alpha/number entities and down to ----john etc. Result to be
100 200 300 400 500 600
There can also be a mixture as in
--(&John,,,, 200 ---() Andrews,400- (500),,,, --600
John 200 Andrews 400 500 600
I have a db with a field that I need to split and put values into two other fields. The format of field1 is either a-b, aa-b, aa-bb, or a-bb. I want to take the value before the "-" and put it into field2 and then take the value after the "-" and put it into field3 and then delete field1. Is there a straightforward way to do this? I want to do it in the query design grid so let me know what should be in the "criteria" line versus the "update to" line.
I'm using Access 2000 and have approx 5500 records to convert.
Thanks!!
