hey
Is it possible to use sql case statements in access ?
I have used them in sql server all the time and they are really useful!
I mean statements like this one:
"SELECT iOrderID,dOrderDate,iTotalBeforeVat,iShipTotal,iVa tTotal,iTotal,
CASE sOrderStatus WHEN '9' THEN 'Canceled' END FROM tTmpOrderRpt"
thanks!
Hi,
I am trying to run the following query and getting an error. It looks like its because of the Case Statement.

CASE MID(Objects.ObjectName, 4, 2)
CASE 'SR'
0
CASE ELSE
2
END AS AccessType
FROM Role, Objects
WHERE (Role.RoleID > 2115)
Can you give me suggestions plzzz
Thanks,
Hello, I'm attempting to use a case statement in order to select fields from a column that have names and addresses mixed. I'm wanting to select only the fields that contain names. For example some fields start with an address of "1998 Sky Rd" or PO BOX, or Suite at the beginning of the field. I would like to first select all fields with names in the field and then use an update statement to move/switch fields to another column. The only problem is that I can't seem to get this query to work. Please help!!!
Thank you!!!!!!!!!
SELECT address1, name3=address1 as expr1
Case [address1]
When mid([address1],1,1) Like [A-Z] then [address1]
When [address] is null then ""
When [address] = "" then ""
Else 'Null"
End,
FROM Exercise1;
:confused:
Hi everyone, please help, i am in depserate need here. Am i right in thinking nested IF functions are limited to 7 variables, i need to choose from 12, so i need to use something different
it seems like a CASE function could do what i want it to, but i really have no clue where to start, shall i enter this into a query criteria box, or on the form itself ina new field box...??
Can you give a few hints as to what the code would look like, i have two fields, obviously. One is 'lesson_type' and one is 'cost' i want the cost to change depending on what is selected in the lesson type box.
LESSON TYPE ----------- COST
Beginner 1hour ----------- 15
Beginner 2hour ----------- 29
Beginner 3hour ----------- 42
Test Retake 1hour -------- 13
Test Retake 2hour -------- 25
Test Retake 3hour ---------36
Disqualified Retake 1hour -- 25
Disqualified Retake 2hour -- 49
Disqualified Retake 3hour -- 72
Advanced 1hour ---------- 10
Advanced 2hour ---------- 19
Advanced 3hour ---------- 27
Is it possible to do that, change the cost correpsonding to what one is entered in lesson_type...??? And where do i put it??? What do i do with it??
Thanks, dragon2309
Does anyone know if its possible to perform a CASE Statement in a SELECT statement in Access and if so what the syntax is? Thanks in advance.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am trying to make a field in a query which displays a date based off of the criteria below. I tried nesting IIF statements but I couldn't get it to work so I tried a Case WHEN statement.
CASE
WHEN [Appfrom] Is Null & [Fundfrom] Is Null THEN "7/7/1999"
WHEN [Appfrom] Is Null & [Fundfrom] IS NOT NULL THEN [Fundfrom]
WHEN [Fundfrom] Is Null & [Appfrom] IS NOT NULL THEN [Appfrom]
WHEN [Fundfrom] IS NOT NULL & [Appfrom] IS NOT NULL THEN "7/7/1999"
END
Here is the IIF statement
IIf(IsNull([Appfrom] And [Fundfrom]),"7/7/1999",(IIf(Not IsNull([Appfrom]) And IsNull([Fundfrom]),[Appfrom],(IIf(IsNull([Appfrom]) And Not IsNull([Fundfrom]),[Fundfrom],"7/7/1999"))))))
Neither one works and have no idea how to fix it. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Here is my CASE WHEN statement in SQL. What would the If statement be in MS access?
CASE WHEN LEN(Serial) = 9 THEN Serial
WHEN LEN(CAST(Serial as Varchar(255))) = 8 THEN '0'+Serial
WHEN LEN(CAST(Serial as Varchar(255))) = 7 THEN '00'+Serial
WHEN LEN(CAST(Serial as Varchar(255))) = 6 THEN '000'+Serial
ELSE 'Error'
END
AS NewSerial
Thanks for your help!
Can someone simplify my feeble scratching at a Case Select statement, please?
I have two fields in a table (True/False): IsActive and IsDefault
I would like to convert some If...Else...Then statements to a Case Select statement which details what should be done when any of the possible states of the two fields exist.
Semi-Psuedo example in the (subform) Form_Current Event:
With Me
If !IsActive = True And !IsDefault = False Then
Do Something on the Parent form
ElseIf !IsActive = True And !IsDefault = False Then
Do Something Else on the Parent form
ElseIf !IsActive = True And !IsDefault = True Then
Do Something Else Again on the Parent form
Else
Do Something Entirely Different
End If
End With
What blows my mind is the Select Case Expression bit. I can't figure out how to write this. Any help is greatly appreciated.
If I write a select case statement for a field X i.e. 6 to 7 for example will this:1. Select any fields X where the number is greater than or equal to 6 but less than (and not including) 7B. Select any fields X where the number is greater than or equal to 6 but includes decimels of 7 i.e. 7.5 ORC. Select any fields X where the number is greater than or equal to 6 but includes but literally only includes cases where the the whole number 7 appears>I only ask because in an example in a book I am looking at says:Case 10000 to 20000......Case 20001 to 30000I would have through the word "to" means until but not including but in this case the field that equals 20000 would never be selected?

I have a boolean array, foundState(3), whose 4 elements correspond to 4 variables describing conditions that will dictate what action is taken upon closing a form.
There are only 6 possible outcomes for the array, and they can be divided into just 4 cases:
Case {T,T,T,T}
Case {T,T,T,F} OR {T,T,F,F} OR {T,T,F,T}
Case {T,F,F,F}
Case {F,F,F,F}
What the proper syntax would be for this if I'm trying to create a "Select Case" statement for these 4 cases.
I am trying to get a Case Statement to evaluate multiple conditions. Example: below when I get diagnosis code 20400 and the age_at_diagnosis is 40 the code is basically ignoring the second condition of the Case "And rs![Age_At_Diag] < 18". How do I get the code to recognize both conditions?
Code:
Private Sub cmd_Update_Conditional_Codes_Click()
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim rs2 As DAO.Recordset
[code]...
I have a lengthy CASE statement in my database that displays specific text in a field based on the value of another. Simple stuff but for some reason it randomly will not work on certain values, and never the same one twice. Is there a commonly known cause for this? I have verified that the spelling and spacing etc. are correct in my code so that shouldn't be causing the problem.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a simple SELECT CASE query. I'm not sure how the syntax goes and I want to learn about it.
In the attached file, if you click on "cohort table", you will see the categorization for each unit under "field1".
how will I be able to use a SELECT CASE statement in a query to populate each unit with assigned category?
Details:
I have a Profile form that tracks the expiration date for each client's various certifications. These dates are set up in the Short Date format in the table design of Access.
Problem:
When a user accidentally presses an alphabetic key while updating an expiration date, an Access error message is triggered. This is confusing to my users as these messages are written in Access lingo. I would rather that nothing occurs at all. I wrote a case statement to disable each letter of the alphabet and applied it to the On Key Down Event for each expiration date control on my Profile form to solve this problem, but this must be applied to 28 separate controls. I would rather call a function that disables alphabetic keys for each date control in my form when called.
Questions:
How do I transform my Disable Alphabetic Keys Case Statement into a function that I can call for each expiration date control? I know that when writing a function certain variables have to be declared and/or initialized.
Also, will I need to create a function to re-enable alphabetic keys or is this unnecessary because the disable alpha keys function will only be called for specific controls, not the entire form?
What I Have Tried:
I have tried copying and pasting my Disable Alphabetic Keys Case Statement into a module to attempt to create a function, but it needs work.
Below I have included 2 types of code:
(1) The original On Key Down code applied to each date control on my form
(2) The same code written as an attempt at a function
Original Profile Form Code to Disable Alphabetic Keys in the On Key Down event for each date control
Private Sub txtCert1ExpDate_KeyDown(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer)
Select Case KeyCode
'All message box text is for me to test the code, not for the user to see
Case vbKeyA
MsgBox ("you pressed the A key")

lowercase - but i need it to be Title Case, any one know
how I can do this....
My database is now live within our office and is working fine.
The databases which I have imported the data from, where done by my dad, who being old fashioned, used CAPS for everything he typed. So for quite alot of the data, its all caps, and it would be great, but not essential if we could revert the text to normal sentences.
Is there any trick or code that I could run that would go through certain tables and reformat the text in to a better format??
I have an Access SQL statement (Using Access 2000)that contains the line:
WHERE ((([tblResupplyOrder Numbers].[Our Order Number])=[Forms]![frmEditOrder]![Combo51])
This query is used to populate a report, but being conditional it only works when I drive it from form [frmEditOrder].
I want to wildcard [frmEditOrder] so that any form with a Combo51 can drive the query and the report.
Otherwise I have to replicate the query and report with a new form name for each one.
Thanks in advance for any help.
I'm trying to do this statement from excel in an access query.

How do you do this in Access.
Thanks
Im trying to help out a fellow colleague of mine with a query. She is trying to setup an iff statement which looks at a field in a query called DaysInForce. If the policy was inforce for 1-365 days she wants the new column to show Dur 1 and 366-720 will be Dur 2 etc etc. This is what she got so far
Exp1:IIf([DaysInforce] >=1AND<=365, "Dur 1", "Dur s",IIf([DaysInforce] >=366AND<=730, "Dur 2", "Dur Z"))
For the Dur s and Dur Z do we need those as fillers? Weve been reading that iif statements need 3 parts to them so we put those there as place holders allthought ive seen some queries skip them. When we run the query it says something about commas and points to the <= signs. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Noob alert.
What I am trying to do is write either a 'yes' or 'no' to one of my access tables based on the criteria of a linked table. When I build my query, I input the following into the field:
Expr1: IIf(([5WellInformation]![LowPH]<5.5) Or ([5WellInformation]![HighPH]>10) Or ([5WellInformation]![Temperature]>75) Or ... , "Yes", "No")
My query type is 'Append Query'
The problem I am encountering is that I require 39 different criteria to come up with either a Yes or No. If anyone of those 39 criteria fail, than a Yes is written.
When I place the entire expression into the query, half of it is cut off because the expression is too long.
Any Ideas? Am I doing this right... or is there a different way I should approach this.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help!
I need to create some sort of statement, that will activate a macro under the following condition.
That the [Stock Level] is <= [Stock Reorder level]
So for example, if the stock level goes below the re order level, then i would like a msgbox to flash (on and off) on a form.
I dont know what type of code i would use. And also you would need to take into consideration The specific paper ID that is actually under the Re order level.
Eg.
Paper ID Stock Level Reorder Number
A4 White 20 19
A4 Black 20 19
A4 Blue 15 19
Hence on the issuing of paper (from Frm Issues) I would like a msgbox flashin on a form indicating that "A4 Blue-Low!"
Thanks for yor time
