Sum Of Column In Same Table?

Sep 21, 2005

Ok everyone, I need your help. I�m trying to create a simple database template for robotics teams in MS Access hopefully to be used in 263s upcoming season, if we have one. I�m using MS Access 2003 and I�m trying to create a Transaction Log table like this.

Description Amount Date Balance
--------------------------------------
Sponsorship $11,000 9/21/05 $11,000
Registration ($6,000) 9/22/05 $5,000

The thing is, I want the Balance field to automatically fill in by adding the value of Amount to the previous fields Balance value, or if it�s the first entry in the table then setting the balance equal to the amount. Is there any way to do this?

Thanks all.

Populating A Column In A Table Based On Values In An Existing Column

Mar 5, 2007

Hi all,

In the organisation that I work for employees get paid every 2 weeks on a Saturday. So for this financial year the pay period end dates have been 08/07/2006, 22/07/2006, 05/08/2006 etc

I have a column in an Access table listing various dates. I want the next column to be
populated with the next pay period end date after that date.

So if DATE is 05/07/2006 I want PAY PERIOD END to be 08/07/2006
and if DATE is 09/07/2006 I want PAY PERIOD END to be 22/07/2006 etc

How do I do this?

Kind Regards,

Matthew

Modules & VBA :: Update Column In Table Based On Another Table

Apr 24, 2015

I'm trying to use VBA to update a new column in a table with info I already have in another table.The table I want to update is an inventory details table, it has around 25,000 records. I added a column called "UnitCost", of course the column is empty for all 25,000 records so I would like to fill it easily using DoCmd.RunSQL "UPDATE" feature.

I use that through-out the program however I'm unable to connect the dots for this one.What it needs to do is update "UnitCost" in "InventoryDetails" from "Products" where "InventoryDetails.ProductNumber" = "Products.ProductNumber"

The "Products" table has all the different unit cost, it just need to be placed in the "InventoryDetails" table for every record. Of course product1 needs products1 unit cost and product2 needs products2 unit cost, etc.

How To Copy A Column From One Table And Insert It Into Another Table In The Same Db

Feb 3, 2006

How to copy a column from one table and insert it into another table in the same database

Hi, All,

I have two tables (old and new) sitting in the same database. The new table is the result of 'data cleansing' done by an external company. In the process (export and import via excel) two memo type colums in the table were truncated in excel.

To make the new table usable, I must therefore now copy/insert the two memo columns from the old table into the new table.

Both tables are already Access tables and sit in the same database. Both tables, of course, have the same number of rows.

I tried to high-light one column in the old table, clicked copy, then high-lighted a blank column in the target table, then clicked Paste, but got error msg: "This text is too long for this field. Try copying a shorter text", as if I had wanted to copy the whole column into one cell rather than one column into another column of equal length.

What is the best way to proceed?

Thanks for your help.

Adrian

Populate Table Column With Data From Another Table

Dec 23, 2004

I have one database containing several tables, two of which are associated to this inquiry:

1) tblCategories
Contains two columns: CatID and Category Name

2) tblPending
Contains many columns of data obtained through upload from a web form including a column to capture the CatID and also a column for Category Name.
I wish to populate the Category Name column based on the results of data uploaded into CatID column

How is this accomplished? This is inherited project and I have very little experience with Access so just limping along...
Specific instruction much appreciated.

Thank you.

Can I Add A Column To A Table And Give It A Name Using VBA?

Feb 22, 2008

Hi all

I am currently building a holiday planner for my employers and I would like to try and display the days of the year as rows and the staff as columns (Fields). When someone adds a new member of staff, I would like it to also add them to the calendar table as a new column and name the column the same as the individuals name. Is this possible using VBA or SQL string?

If anyone has a better idea as to how I can display the forthcoming holidays for a team I would really appreciate your comments.

Thanks

Gareth

Column Difference From Same Table

Jul 11, 2005

I have a table that contains a significant amount of data. The columns are as follows;

ID, WeekNo, Ref, Cost

What I want a query to do is only show me differences in Cost value where the Ref is the same

For example

ID, WeekNo, Ref, Cost
1, 1, ABC, 123
2, 1, DEF, 456
3, 2, ABC, 123
4, 2, DEF, 789

The query I would like, would only show me the result of Rows 2 & 4 because the value of cost is different between the weeks.

At the moment I have two queries, One that pulls out the last weeks value (WeekNo 1), and the other that pulls out the same information but for the comparison week (WeekNo 2). In the third query I created I linked the two columns from the Ref fields, but could not work the logic to only show me ones where the differences in cost were displayed.

Thanks in advance of the resolution to this. I know it is basic query work, but just have a logical block in getting it to work.

Regards

I can forsee the columns are being:

Format Column In Table

Apr 24, 2014

I know in creating columns in a table where I have date/time you can select long short, etc. But, I want my column name to be YR and the values of 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 all the way to 2020. So I end up with 7 rows. Then another date related table that houses the months. It will have a column name of MTH and the values Jan through Dec so a total of 12 rows. I have tried in format putting YYYY and MMM but when entering the data, it gives me an error saying I have to convert, click the calendar and choose a date. I don't want to choose month, day and year. I just want the year.

Adding New Column(s) To A Table

Oct 6, 2013

Assignment : Add two new columns to a copy of the departments table, sec0611_departments. One new column, a text column, will be the name of the manager department. The other new column, a numeric column, is for the annual budget of the department.

As of right now I know how to start the code, which (if not mistaken) should look like;

alter table sec0611_departments
add column ' ______ '
add column ' ______ ';

My question is, what value do I insert in place of "name of the manager" (ex. manager_id, first_name?) and same goes for the numeric column. Price? credit_limit? budget?

Autofit Column In Table View

Dec 15, 2005

We are doing a data dump where we print screenshots of the tables to .tiff's and go from there. In the DB in particular, we have about 15 tables with 20-40 columns a piece. They all have to be resized and I was hoping there might be a default or setting option to set the colums to autoformat width. Does anyone know of such an option?

Alter Table Rename Column

Jul 25, 2005

Hopefully someone can help....

I'm trying to change the name of a column in a table using SQL. I've tried different combinations but always get

"Syntax error in Alter Table statement"

SQL I've tried

alter table tblImport
rename column F1 to [Date];*

alter tblImport
rename column F1 to [Date];

alter table tblImport
rename F1 to [Date];

I've checked this out via some SQL sites & think the first version (*) is correct....can someone throw light on this? I'm using Access2000
