I have a form that lists contact information for people, and also has a subform that shows their participation in different events that my group puts on.
The subform, when viewed by itself, sorts the data based on one of the combo boxes just fine, since I have the subform based on a query that is sorted correctly.
But when I view the main form, which includes the subform on it, the data on the subform is not sorting at all.
Any idea why it would sort properly when viewed directly, but not when viewed as part of the main form?
I need to order a sub form (which is a continuous form) by a Date field in decending order (so that the latest date appears at the top).
When I open the subform on its own the sort works fine by just sorting using the OrderBy property but when it is opened as a subform it doesn’t sort in the same way.
GOAL: To sort my subform data in descending order;
I have a subform off a large query... the query has other forms off it...
so on the subform I have used the Order By property...
qryDeliveries.EntDate DESC
:) sure enough when the subform is opened the continuous data is sorted in descending order by date....
:( BUT.. When I add this subform to my unbound main form it doesn't sort the subforms data? I didn't want to sort on the query because it runs other forms???
I have subform which displays correctly off a table but is there a way besides making it off a query to filter just one criteria? Such as Y instead of N? Or do I have to go through it and use a query for the source? Which is the best?
I have a sub for which is set to sort by ascending order for a given field which happens to be a text field with vales set something like abc1.1,abc1.2 ect. The problem is, is that when you get to abc1.10, and more these are then sorted as so abc1.1 abc1.10 abc1.11 abc1.2 abc1.3 ect
How can I stop this and sort it: abc1.1 abc1.2 abc1.3 ....... abc1.10 abc1.11
I have a query for a subform which is displayed in datasheet mode (see attachment). I've created a form based on a query and used it as a subform. The "casenumbers" per clients are displayed from 1 and upwards, I would like to have them sorted Descending. So in the query I sorted them that way. When I run the query they are displayed in descending order. When I open the subform based on that query however it is not. I can sort descending anyway by clicking the column on which I want to sort and do it that way, but that becomes bothersome and it doesn't need to be that way.
Record source is ok: SELECT KlantNAW.ClientNumber, CaseInfoTable.Casenumber, CaseInfoTable.DateInitialCall, CaseInfoTable.DateCaseCreation, CaseInfoTable.CaseAccepted, CaseInfoTable.[1stAppointmentDate], CaseInfoTable.DateCaseClosed, CaseInfoTable.About1 FROM KlantNAW INNER JOIN CaseInfoTable ON KlantNAW.ClientNumber=CaseInfoTable.ClientNumber;
Order by: Casenumber DESC
I thought, well, lets create a new form based on the query to see if that changes anything, maybe I've changed something I shouldn't have.
But nope, same result.
How can make the form sort descending in datasheet mode?
How to sort entered records in a subform by combo box. Notice combo box has integer value not text. I want to bo sroted by text visibled ASC. The code must be in Command control SORT (See pict enclosed)
I have a subform which tracks all the notes our personnel have entered in a specific project (which is the main form).
The issue is that I want the most current note to show in the subform when the project is "opened up". The underlying query for the subform has the [DATE] field sorted on "Descending".
It appears that the code works partially - the values in the "AOBJ" field are as they be and so are the values in "AVAILABLE" field. The values in the "ORG" and "AGFND" fields will not sort.
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)
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.
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.
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?
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?
I 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?
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!!!!! ????????????????
i need to write some type of query or report that will group the skills into the numerical categories 1-9 and then in each of those groups listthe skills autamaticall and then have a way to print it out either in word or excel looking some thing like this
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 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?
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?
