Hi,
I think I know my way around a database, but my new employer has me doing kart-wheels. There is an Excel sheet of values which I have imported to Access tables, the table contains ledger values on it and the account numbers are in the fields as column headers.
I want to reflect those field values as part of the actual record in a summary query.
I think this can be done with just a few steps without creating more than one table or query???
Hello. Im new here and also new to both Visual Basic and Access so please be patient with me :)
I've downloaded SearchDB.zip uploaded by agehoops. Its works exactly like its supposed to but I need to update it a bit.
Im making a MovieDatabase and have a table with Orginaltitle, SwedishTitle, Director, Actors and so on. When I search in "Director" for "Francis Ford Coppola" or just "Francis" the movies which is related to him comes up. But when I search for "Ford Coppola" or only "Coppola" nothing comes up. I want the user to have that possibilty to search using the last part of the name too. Is that possible?
When searching with the binocolor icon it works fine when chosing "part of record", i think thats the english translation for "Del av fält". I have a swedish acces version so im not so sure but anyhow I think you understand what I mean.
To sum it up I want the ability to search writing only a part of what the record contain including the last part and not only the first part like it is right now.
I have what I think is a difficult problem to overcome...
I am designing a form to create an invoice. The user will select a workstream and a date range in form frmInvByHrs. Within this I want two sub-forms, one is frmInvByHrsTsht and the other is frmInvByHrsBill. I want the first one to display all the staff and their hours done, and the second one to be in data entry mode where you can enter the hours you want to bill. Each sub-form is based on a separate query.
Is it possible to do this? ie. to have one sub-form in data entry mode, and the other not? It seems to me that the data entry mode is controlled by the MAIN form regardless of the sub-form settings!
If this is not possible, do you know how I can acheive this?
I am creating a database that tracks the selling of products amongst other things.
The user will enter in an order and may delay invoicing until the customer approves the quote - at which time the order is turned into an invoice.
In the transactions table the OrderID, ProductID and CustomerID constitute a composite key.
I want to be able to view the order and change it by either deleting or adding ordered items (obviously prior to invoicing) but because the ProductID is part of the composite key I cannot delete a line item.
Perhaps the solution is to remove ProductID from the index or is there a better way?
I am needing to compare some information in a way I cant with the normal Unmatched Query.
I have 2 tables with the fields:
| PHONE1 | PHONE2 | FIRST | LAST |
What I need to do is have Table 2 check against Table 1 to see if any of the 'PHONE1' records match 'PHONE1' or 'PHONE2,' and if they do have them remove just the information from PHONE1, not the entire record.
Then I would have to repeat the process to do this with PHONE2. Having it check against 'PHONE1' and 'PHONE2' in Table1.
If both PHONE1 and PHONE2 have a match, the entire record would be deleted. If not, it would keep whichever did not match.
I am currently having to do this manually, because if I just run an Unmatched Query it gets rid of the whole record regardless of if PHONE2 is a good number or not.
If any more information is needed, let me know. Like I said, Im relatively new to working in Access and dont know much.
I have refined my query from previous threads to involved a module function. This calculates more acurately no of working days between dates and takes into account a holidays table. (All credit to Arvin Meyer on the module:) ) However because the Leave Year starts at the 1 July and finishes 30 Jun I need to compose the date for any current year Year(Now())
Enclosed scrdmp shows my query design. I can easily get it to work as you see it, but obviously as each year rolls over, the year needs to change.
Have looked at many posts but can't find what I'm looking for. This one will get me over the hurdle.
I am attempting to append 2 fields from one table and one record to another table. I have been using DLast("field","table") in an append query to get this done. However, it blows up occasionally and points to the wrong record.
How does one easily and reliably select the right record to use for an append?
I have a table whose key is two fields. I am having no luck in selecting a given record from a form and deleting it. No problem in a table with a single field key.
I have created a database which has 9 tables, the first table being the contact information, but in all tables there are fields for firstname, lastname. Is there a way when you enter the firstname/lastname fields into the main table that it can populate the same information in to the same fields in the other tables? If so how?
I have a table with multiple fields and each record in the table may not have data for all fields. I need to write a query that will pull only the fields that are populated for each record from the table.
Stuff. ItemNo Name ImageName 123 Foo 00123.jog 123 Foo 00FOO.jpg 123 FOO FOO123.jpg 456 bar 00456.jog 456 BAR 00BAR.jpg 456 Bar BAR456.jpg ...
I want to do a query to return just one row per unique ItemNo
So the query would return ItemNo Name ImageName 123 Foo 00123.jog 456 bar 00456.jog
I don't care which one it grabs, the first is as good as the last, as they are essentially different names for the same thing coming from different systems.
I know there's gotta be an easy way to do this, but I've tried things like TOP, DISTINCT, etc and none of them work for me.
We have a form with a field Drawing No from the Table Job Register
I want to be able to take the first part of the drawing number and display all matching items from the quote details table.
Aesthetics I can sort later.
I've created a query Item History.
My intention is to have a command button on the form Job Register that runs the query qryQuoteHistory displaying matching results.
My issues are as follows: drawing numbers are sporadic in length and information ie: kk80 a2-19520 a2-19520 rev a e8 1128215 issue d
Retrospectively I would have had issue or revision number in a separate field, or better yet have a products table and link the info there. Unfortunately this isn't the case.
I want to take the first 15 characters from a field in my table and place those 15 characters into a new field in the same table , assuming i can do this with a query.
I'm building a DB where I have multiple users. I would like to have all data in 1 table but only give access to records created by the individual user. Is this possible?
Alternatively, if each user has it's own table, how can I report on the sum of all tables.:confused:
hi everybody, im have a database with table called "project". there are many column in this table. my user want to export this table to Excel, but only some of column, with particular order ( depend on him) to analyze in Excel. he asked me to build a form with a list box, drop box,somthing like this, so he can choose what column to export in what order. i try to make a query like this: " Select Forms!UserInput.combobox1.value , Forms!UserInput.combobox2.value,etc, From Project" but it wont work. Dou you have any idea. thanks in advance
I have a master list of projects, with project reference number, project name, and nature of project.
I have also got a form for individuals to fill in details of project events, with date, time, name, and two or three other fields - also included are project reference and name. I'd like the name field to be auto filled when the user selects the project reference from a combo box; I think? (the list only shows open projects).
I'd did something similar some years ago in Access 2003 (I think) but cannot figure it out in the version I'm currently using 2010.
The fields we want to focus on is "AccNo" and "TestCode"
Now i want to filter based on this condition:
If "AccNo" AND "TestCode" BOTH have duplicate data in a record. Show that record only once. Remember. . . "AccNo and TestCode, both these fields have to have duplicate data in a record.
Example: MethodCode..... AccNo .....PatientName.....MR..... TestCode ..... etc, etc CAPT.....M566679.....John Blue.....123456.....CBCA CAPT.....M566679.....John Blue.....123456.....CBCA the example above should only display once because of the repeated AccNo and TestCode
Example: MethodCode..... AccNo .....PatientName.....MR..... TestCode ..... etc, etc CAPT.....M566679.....John Blue.....123456..... CBCA CAPT.....M566679.....John Blue.....123456..... LIPID the example above is just fine because the TestCode is not matching
How do i create a query to accomplish this? someone please help, i've had troube with this for the passed couple weeks . .. .
Every quarter I run a report that pulls loans that meet specific criteria.I export this report into excel (the loans fall into column A)I add a file number and box number in columns B and C.I import the excel spreadsheet to table 2 (they're linked so I don't need to import, it's automatic)
Now that I have the updated information back into the database (table 2), how can I get this information back into table 1? The excel spreadsheet only contains a few loans that need to be updated in table 1. I have tried creating an update query with both tables linked and use the "update to" field. However, when I tried to run the query, it says I have 0 records updated.
My update query is as follows:
Field: Access Bar Code Table: Table 1 Update To: [Table 2].[Access Bar Code]
Field: Access Box Number Table: Table 1 Update To: [Table 2].[Access Box Number]
Basically I'm trying to have the query update specific fields in table 1 based on the information from table 2.
I don't have any database experience whatsoever so please go easy. I'm guessing this kind of this is extremely simple for all of you.
I'm constructing a database of network resources and devices and I'd like to automatically update the values in one field based on the values of a field in another table.
The first table is called "IP" and the fields are called "Address", "IP Type" and "Device". The second table is called "Devices" and contains the fields "Name", "Description", "Asset Number" and "IP".
Here's an example of the tables: (ignore the "code" tag. i've only used it to align my columns properly)
What I want is for the Device field in the IP table to automatically update it's values based on the values found in the Devices table. In this case, the values that should appear in the Device field in the IP table are "Xserve" and "ProliantX".
I've searched through but haven't found a complete solution, just little pieces which I'm too inexperienced to put together myself.
I created a form in Access that retrieves data from a table. Inside the form, I am able to access/populate data fields with data from the table. I also have data fields, inside the form, that requires key-in data. I have some how lost the ability send all data field information to a second table and clear existing data fields for new entry.
Questions: What settings, code or buttons can I use to send/store data field information to a new table? What settings, code or buttons can I use to automatically clear all data fields from my form once data has been sent to the new table?
I have a totalquery that runs fine and give me the sum for both fields I'm looking for but I can't get the outputs to fill the fields on the form. I have tried the Dcount query in the control source but that just returns an error and locks up access.
Code: SELECT [Tble-wcDelays].Causedby, Sum([Tble-wcDelays].HoursDelay) AS SumOfHoursDelay FROM [Tble-wcDelays] GROUP BY [Tble-wcDelays].Causedby, [Tble-wcDelays].LinkingID HAVING ((([Tble-wcDelays].LinkingID)=[Forms]![Frm-ePlusCent]![cleanID]));
I have a database that will register the emails coming in and what time, also the time, date out and person.
I have a form with the fields to be filled in and a submit button. There are some fields that are automatically filled in and others need manually fill in.
below that part is a sheet (subform in the form of sheet) that should be filled in with the above data. Once it is there, it should empty the fields so they are ready to be filled in again. If I fill new data and press the submit button, it should go to the next available row.
