Splitting Records Based On Concatenated Strings

Dec 14, 2007

Hello all

I have a table containing the following fields:
Customer ID
Customer Name
Countries
The ID is numeric, the name is a string and the countries are the tricky bit since it contains a string of concatenated 2 digit ISO codes: "USCAGB".

What I would like to do is convert the concatenated representation to a normalized one. Take this example table:

ID Name Countries
2 John SEDK
3 Maria USCAGB

From the above table I would like to create a new table that links Customer IDs to single countries as

ID Name Countries
2 John SE
2 John DK
3 Maria US
3 Maria CA
3 Maria GB

How would I go about solving this?

Splitting Strings

Dec 15, 2005

I am normalizing data from a spreadsheet of just over 4000 records. The spreadsheet has a "Model" field that contains both the model number and a model description, separated by a space. I would like to split this field into two different fields: "Model_Number" and "Model_Description". The model number is one word of varying lenths.

Any ideas?

Splitting Long String To Multiple Fixed-length Strings?

Sep 16, 2013

I have a table where I want to break longer strings into three-character strings.

So... for example the data item "Forest," I'd like to generate "FOR" "ORE" "RES" "EST" and write all four to another table, allowing for duplication. Alternately, we could make a list and just count the unique 3-character strings. The end goal here is to measure the frequency of 3-character strings across a set of data.

how to do this with an Access query?

Queries :: Select Query To Pull Records Based On Multiple Strings Entered By A User?

May 1, 2013

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));

Tables :: Update Table Based On Concatenated Field

Aug 8, 2013

I have a field in a table that is to be concatenated from two other fields, PolPrefix and PolNum. On a form I got it to show the full field 'PolicyNumber' by making the control source =[PolPrefix] & [PolNum].

But this doesn't update the field PolicyNumber in the respective table, and only shows it on the form. How do I get a concatenated field defined by the user into a table so that I can call that field other places in the database?

Tables :: AutoNumber Based On Location Strings

May 1, 2013

I have two tables that are related: BUCKETS & LOCATION

BUCKETS has these fields:ID (autonum)
Type (type of bucket)
Creation Date (when it was created)
Operational (if it is operational or not (Yes/No).
Location (Location of the bucket)
Notes (notes)

LOCATIONS has these fields:LocationAutoID (Autonumber)
LocationCity
LocationID
BucketsOnSite (can have multiple entries)

What I'd like to have done is for LOCATIONS table to be aware of how many different cities there are. So for instance, if there is multiple location entries for the cities of Vancouver and Toronto in there, I want the LocationID to first know how many Torontos there are and in LocationID to combine the LocationCity and a count (starting from 1) to that field.

So for example, if there are three toronto locations and two vancouver locations, LocationID would have TO-01, TO-02, T0-03 for the Toronto locations and VAN-01, VAN-02 for Vancouver locations.

At first I had the expression of [LocationCity] & "-" & [LocationAutoID] in the Expression field in the Field Properties but I quickly realized that it wouldn't count the amount of cities but just add the autonumber and the city (which kind of works, but not ideally).

Strings Within Strings Using Expression Builder

Jun 6, 2007

Hello

I have two tables with names of people in different forms.

table1 : [name] can be either in the form of :
- firstname & firstname surname
- surname, firstname

table2: [surname]

I'm trying to select all the records in table1 where [table2]![surname] is part of [table1]![name]

I've tried using

Like "*"&[surname]&"*"

This returns everything rather than the similar names.

I think this should be simple but can't work it out.

Tables :: Splitting Table Into Multiple Sets Based On Row Count

Oct 5, 2012

I want to split a table into multiple sets based on rowcount. Suppose I have a table having 10,000 records. I want different sets which should have values based on rowcount. Suppose if I select set 1 then the table should populate records from 1-2500. If I select set 2 then the table should automatically give the records from 2501-5000. If i select set3 then the table should have values from 5001-7500 and so on.

Modules & VBA :: Splitting Dataset Sorted On Two Fields Based On Change In Value In One Field

Feb 6, 2014

I am new to MS Access, and am not sure if what I want to do is even possible. It is my understanding that comparing subsequent cells within a field in a database cannot be done- so I thought I'd see if there is a way to go around it.

I have a dataset for pedestrian activity, with over 3 million rows and 40 columns - too big for excel to handle.

I need to sort the entire dataset by 2 fields, following which I need to search down the field containing my pedestrian ids (numbered 1, 2, 3... till approx 10000), and when my ped id changes from one to the next, I need to check the value in a field showing the ped location, and if that matches with the ped's previous location, I need to copy out a cell corresponding to the previous cell's time stamp. If it doesn't match, I need to copy out another time stamp from another field.

Modules & VBA :: Identify Strings Into 2nd Table Records Then Update 1st Table

May 5, 2015

MS Access 2013: I have two database tables as below:

tbl1_MainDB --- It has a field named as "City" where I get huge data for some city names. Sometimes This field may have some unknown/new names which are not listed in our 2nd table ("tbl2_RefrDB")

tbl2_RefrDB --- It's a reference table which has raw names for cities, and then standard names of their city and state in another fields.

Target --- I want to create a VBA prorgram (Sql query) which can look from tbl1_MainDB.[City] to tbl2_RefrDB.[Raw_City] field, and if found then pick the "Standard_State" and "Standard_City" record values from there, and update into the 1st table "tbl1_MainDB".

...if not found in "tbl2_RefrDB" table, then user can be informed & ask for updating the new/unmatched city record as a new record in this table.

Attached sample database for more details.

Concatenated Query Help

Nov 5, 2004

I have built a query, a series of concatentions. What I need to do is add this query as a field on my form. So that the info that has been concatenated is stored in my table. Can this be done? I am able to show this query field on a report, but I need to pull the concatented info into the table. Hopefully I have explained this well enough.

Sincerely,

Search By Last/first Name Concatenated

Aug 3, 2007

Hi all,

In the header of my form I have two comboboxes that search the main form to bring up a specific record in the detail section. The first, Combo2, uses the primary key of the table on which the chart is based for the search, and works well. The second, Combo6, is based off of a query that displays patient names concatenated as "LastName, FirstName." I can't search by last name alone because some last names are present for multiple people. Is there any way to take a selection in this combobox and use it as the filter for both the first and last name fields on the main form? Here's my current code for the search:

Code:Private Sub cmdSearchPatientInfo_Click() Dim strWhere As String Dim lngLen As Long Const conJetDate = "#mm/dd/yyyy#" If Not IsNull(Me.Combo2) Then strWhere = strWhere & "([Medical Record Number] = """ & Me.Combo2 & """) AND " End If '====This works fine If Not IsNull(Me.Combo6) Then strWhere = strWhere & "([Last Name] Like ""*" & Me.Combo6 & "*"") AND " End If '====This does not lngLen = Len(strWhere) - 5 If lngLen <= 0 Then 'Nah: there was nothing in the string. MsgBox "You have not entered any search criteria.", vbInformation, "Whoops!" DoCmd.Echo False DoCmd.Close acForm, "editPatientInfo" DoCmd.OpenForm "editPatientInfo" DoCmd.Echo True Else strWhere = Left$(strWhere, lngLen) Me.Filter = strWhere Me.FilterOn = True Me.Detail.Visible = True End IfEnd Sub

I have pretty limited familiarity with VBA, and I'm not really sure how to proceed. Any help would be VERY much appreciated. Thanks!

Extracting Concatenated Column Data

Oct 23, 2007

Hi, I need a little help. I will give you the background on what i am doing to hopefully make this easier to resolve. P.S I am open to other approaches.

1) Items are requested for order indervidually

Table/Query looks like this

Code:ID#PartNumberStatusQty ReqOrder StatusNeed DateWork Order110-980-21Stock Required2Waiting26/10/2007WO07-12CR212-5-3Stock Required30Waiting26/10/2007WO07-1310-980-21Stock Required1Waiting28/10/2007WO07-24CR212-5-3Stock Required20Waiting28/10/2007WO07-25CR212-5-3Stock Required15Waiting28/10/2007WO07-2

2) The following Module concatenates the columns (my idea being the user can order all items in bulk.

Code:Public Function Conc(Fieldx, Identity, Value, Source) As Variant Dim cnn As ADODB.Connection Dim rs As ADODB.Recordset Dim SQL As String Dim vFld As Variant Set cnn = CurrentProject.Connection Set rs = New ADODB.Recordset vFld = Null SQL = "SELECT [" & Fieldx & "] as Fld" & _ " FROM [" & Source & "]" & _ " WHERE [" & Identity & "]='" & Value & "'" ' open recordset. rs.Open SQL, cnn, adOpenForwardOnly, adLockReadOnly ' concatenate the field. Do While Not rs.EOF If Not IsNull(rs!Fld) Then vFld = vFld & ", " & rs!Fld End If rs.MoveNext Loop ' remove leading comma and space. vFld = Mid(vFld, 3) Set cnn = Nothing Set rs = Nothing ' return concatenated string. Conc = vFldEnd Function

3) A query calls on this

Code:SELECT Conc("ID#","PartNumber",[PartNumber],"Qry_70_BOM_Awaiting_Order") AS [BOM ID#], Qry_70_BOM_Awaiting_Order.PartNumber, Sum(Qry_70_BOM_Awaiting_Order.[Qty Req]) AS [Total Qty Required], Conc("Work Order","PartNumber",[PartNumber],"Qry_70_BOM_Awaiting_Order") AS WOrdersFROM Qry_70_BOM_Awaiting_OrderGROUP BY Qry_70_BOM_Awaiting_Order.PartNumber;

Producing this result.

Code:BOM ID# PartNumberTotal Qty RequiredWOrders1, 3 10-900-213 WO07-1, WO07-22, 4, 5 CR2162-5-365 WO07-1, WO07-2, WO07-2

OK, Now after that, (ALL ABOVE WORKS FINE).

I would like my users to purchase againts the new BOM ID# records as seen above. Once a order is placed against these i will, put something against each records to show there order status. (i'll take care of this part.)

Code:BOM ID# PartNumberTotal Qty RequiredWOrders Order Status1, 3 10-900-213 WO07-1, WO07-2 Waiting2, 4, 5 CR2162-5-365 WO07-1, WO07-2, WO07-2 Ordered

Finally, sorry about the lenght of this, I need to be able to use the above BOM ID# to reference back to the the ID# table at the start of the thread. In this example Id's records 2 - 4 and 5 will show ordered.

In other words how do i extract 2, 4, 5 back out of the above and into there original state, but including the order status?

Hope this makes sence

Queries :: Multi Concatenated Text Box To Individual Row

Sep 30, 2014

I have imported a lot of data from excel into a table. There is in one of the columns some multi concatenate info I want to separate in it's own individual row.I am not sure if there is a way to do this in a query or if there was an MsAccess2007 example somewhere. I looked on the internet but couldn't find anything.

the columns are like this now

123456 7RFE01, 7RFE03, 7MFE06, 7MFH04
237890 8RFE80, 8MFE03, 9GFE06, 5QFH06, 3QFY06

I want the columns to be like this in a query or new table.

123456 7RFE01
123456 7RFE03
123456 7MFE06
123456 7MFH04

Query Is Re-organizing Data In A Concatenated String

Jan 11, 2012

I'm putting together a shipping database. We scan in a string of barcodes, separate out the Serial Numbers from the Barcode Data, concatenate them together as a string with asterisks as a delimiter and join them together with a date code and manufacturing line identifier. Throughout all of the data manipulations I am able to maintain the Serial Numbers in my table in the order which they were scanned in. The very last function is to concatenate the Serial Numbers and Lot information together into one long string which will then be output to a label creation software. And up to that point, the Serial Numbers are still in the correct order (based on them being linked to an autonumber field in the initial table) Upon the final concatenation, the order of the Serial Numbers is being changed, sometimes 17 out of 18 Serial Numbers will be correctly ordered with just one being randomly placed in the string out of order. Here is the code in SQL that I use for concatenating.

INSERT INTO tempMotorPalletLabel ( PalletLabel )
SELECT DISTINCT tempMotors_to_Warehouse.PalletNumber&"*"&tempMotor s_to_Warehouse.Count&"*"&tempMotors_to_Warehouse.P artNumber + '*' + Replace(Replace(ConcatRelated("SerialNumber","temp Motors_to_Warehouse","PalletNumber='"&PalletNumber &"'"),' ',''),',','*')
FROM tempMotors_to_Warehouse;

And this SQL Query transfers the concatenated string to a table that my Label Software queries for data to create the label with.

INSERT INTO AccessMotorLabelData ( PalletNumber, [Count], PartNumber, PalletLabel )
SELECT DISTINCT tempMotors_to_Warehouse.PalletNumber, tempMotors_to_Warehouse.[Count], tempMotors_to_Warehouse.PartNumber, [tempMotorPalletLabel].PalletLabel
FROM tempMotors_to_Warehouse INNER JOIN tempMotorPalletLabel ON tempMotors_to_Warehouse.PalletLabel=[tempMotorPalletLabel].PalletLabel;

Concatenated Fields And Writing To Original Table

Nov 3, 2014

I concatenated 2 fields CR_Numbers: = CR_Number & [Sub Number] to display 12.01: from 12 and 1. I am now wanting to lookup the CR_Numbers to edit or add information into other fields.

I want to use a pop up form to edit/add data without having the form add an entire row to the table. How do I reference the Table ID so that it will go to the equivalent row to add the data in?

Main Table = Change Request
Email Table = AORB_Email
Fields in Form!AORB_EMail: Change Request (CR_Numbers), Priority (Pri_Name), Hours (Hour)

I plan on using the Priority and Hours in the email to set some dates and expiration times as well as in the subject of the email. I have figured out the email setup, and if I manually fill in the Priority and Hours fields everything works as it should.

Make Table Queries And Concatenated Memo Fields

Jul 13, 2006

I have a Make Table query that includes a new field concatenated from a numeric field and a memo field, with some assorted text elements -
Issue Description:"("&[number]&") "&[Description]

When I run the Make Table, the new field "Issue Description" is created as a text field, NOT as a memo field.

Is there any way to insure that this field is created as a memo field.

Thanks.

Queries :: Slow Query Filtering On Concatenated Variable

Jul 9, 2015

I am trying to use a criteria to filter out nulls in concatenated variable, which slows the query considerably.The part that makes it slow looks like this -

WHERE ... AND (([tbl1].[x] & [tbl1].[y]) <> "") AND ...

If I work them individually, it's not a problem, the query is fast, but I have to combine them first in order to produce the correct output.

I am attempting to create a printed label with a concatenated field. I want the field to abbreviate several shapes and colors but i will just start with the shape.

=IIf([Shape]="round","RD","TH")

This is what my basic statement says. I am attempting to nest other options inside of this.

=IIf([Shape]="round","RD",IIF([Shape]="oval", "OV", IIF([Shape]="triangle", "TR", "TH")))

Is this the correct syntax? I can not seem to get it to work.

Reports :: Class Roster - How To Sort Concatenated Fields On A Report

Mar 16, 2015

I have a class roster report in which the Employees' names are concatenated in a text box. When I select to sort the concatenated names alphabetically, it is sorting by the Unique ID, which is a letter and four numbers. The letter used to match the last name, but newer IDs are random. So most names are still in order, but some are not.

The Employee field Row Source is:

SELECT [Last_Name] & ", " & [First_Name] AS Employee, tbl_AM_Operators.User_ID FROM tbl_AM_Operators ORDER BY [Last_Name] & ", " & [First_Name];

What do I need to change to have the Employees' names alphabetized on the report?

Forms :: Place Values Of A Concatenated Combobox In Respective Fields

May 15, 2013

I have a form in which I have a combobox. The code in the row source is:

Code:
SELECT [tblBooks].AuthorFirst & " " & [tblBooks].AuthorLast AS Expr1 FROM tblBooks GROUP BY tblBooks.AuthorLast, tblBooks.AuthorFirst HAVING (((tblBooks.AuthorFirst & " " & tblBooks.AuthorLast)<>"") And ((Count(*))>1)) ORDER BY tblBooks.AuthorLast, tblBooks.AuthorFirst;

This is an unbound box.

The rest of the form contains bound textboxes and other bound comboboxes.

This form is processed by the following VBA code:

Code:
Private Sub cmdAddBook_Click()
'Place the authors first and last name in an array
splitAuthor = Split(cboAuthor.Value, " ")
'Create a new record with the form information
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec

[Code] ....

What happens is that it places all the records (Except those in the array) in a field and overwrites the values in that field.

I have used the same GoToRecord statement on other databases and it works just fine. I suspect that it is due to the unbound combobox.

What I need to find a way to place all the data in the corresponding fields of a new record including separating the author's first and last name when retrieved from the combobox. I just need to figure out how to get the data in the table somehow.
