Tables :: 2 Table To Generate Separate Matrix Table
Mar 9, 2014
I have 2 tables
- Staff Position(Unique Position Name, Description, Hierarchy)
- Training (ID, Name, Description etc.)
I essentially want a table with Staff Position as the Field, and Training as the Rows. The intersecting entries/matrix will be Yes/No to say whether that staff positions requires that training.
Simple Example
..................... Worker ........ Senior ........ Principal
IT Training ......YES ............. YES .............. YES
Accounts ......... NO ............. YES .............. YES
Management ... NO ............. NO ............... YES
I need the user to be able to add as many training entries and as many staff positions as they want. It doesn't HAVE to be that sort of format...

In my DB there is a set of company-running rules that are addressed to different groups within the company, like drivers, bookkeeping, warehouse, electricians etc. Both groups and workers scope and number might change from time to time. I need to make a table that holds which worker belongs to which of these groups (one worker to one or more groups). The easiest way of setting this for the user would be kind of a matrix-look form where lines would hold the name of workers, columns would hold the groups and at the cross points there would be check boxes to set or unset membership. However I can't find the way in what table sturcture this could be utilized.

I have to redesign the database as things has changed. I've already built a table holding records of Clients along with their address information and some attributes that relates to Clients.Now, I need to create a table for our Business contacts. This will also need to store address info and then some attributes relating to businesses. The problem is I'm not sure if I want to take address out of Client table and have Client and Business table link to Address table to follow the rule of not having any repeating data or simply allow Business table to store address.What would be the best thing to do here?Thanks.

I Have a table with 15000 entries. This table lists components we use. This table is used to generate queries/forms. I have been asked to add a hyperlink to this table to link to a drawing of the component. All the drawings are in PDF and in the same folder. I am looking for a way to automatically update the hyperlink fields all at once. The Hyperlink will be in the format of servershareddrawings12345.pdfwhere 12345 is the component name from the table.
But there are a few small problems with the component names.
1. If the component begins with a B- . The drawing name will be all the characters except when there is a second dash in the component. So if the component is B-12345-678 the drawing name will only be B-12345.
2. If The component begins with AB, The drawing will be the first 5 characters regardless of what follows, e.g. AB123.
3. Finally for all other components the full component name will be the drawing name.
Putting the naming to one side, how to go about auto generating the hyperlink. I have posted this in the table section, but maybe this should be in another section like queries or VBA.

if I got a 4 x 4 matrix table - 4 rows and 4 columns - MS Access 2007/2010 the values should exist as below with no repetition of any number in any of the cells.
1 2 3 4
5 6 7 8
9 10 11 12
13 14 15 16
a number should not repeat in any of the cells.I set a primary key on cloumn 1 and defined unique on all the fileds but that doesn't work since 1 columns does not know what the other cell contains and no relationship exists.

I am building a simplified re-order point system - if inventory position drops below a certain level (the yellow level is this case) one or more purchase order lines has to be created in another table.
I have one table with the following field and data:
ItemId Red Yellow Green Multiple Inventory position
0001 10 30 50 5 45
0002 5 40 47 5 23
0003 11 20 30 10 5
I would like to generate new records (in another table) based on the above fields and three records.Basically the end result should look as the following:
ItemId Qty Start inv Aggregated inventory Prioritization
0002 5 23 28 Yellow
0002 5 28 33 Yellow
0002 5 33 38 Yellow
0002 5 38 43 Green
0002 5 43 48 Green
0003 10 5 15 Red
0003 10 15 25 Yellow
0003 10 25 35 Green
The logic is quite simple - if inventory position is less than the yellow value new order lines should be created in multiple qty (based on the multiple field) until the aggregated value (in table 2) is above the green value.The priotization value should be based on the start inv (in tbl 2) compared to the values in red, yellow and green in tbl 1.

I have a training matrix that lists employee names and certifications on various operations. The objective is to choose an operation and run a query to display everyone who is certified on that op. There are additional variables.
Code:
Name EMP ID OP1 OP2 OP3 OP4 OP5
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
John Doe 526261 C C C
Bob Doe 555622 C C C
Sheila Doe 066600 C C C
Okay that looks about right for the data itself. The listbox has all the ops, you choose an op and hit a button and it goes and finds everyone who has a 'C' in that op column and pulls their record.

I am designing a database to enter daily/monthly performance numbers for employees and department totals. However, I don't want to have to enter the month and/or day for every category for each employee entered. In looking through these forums, nobody recommends a separate date table. But it seems time-consuming to have to enter the reporting month for every sales category for every employee. To wit:
TblEmp
EmplID
EmplName
HireDate
TerminationDate
TblCategories
CatID
CatName
CatType
TblDate
MonthYr
DayMonth
TblMonthlyPerformance
AutoID
EmplName
CatName
MonthYr
Amount
TblDailyPerformance
AutoID
EmplName
CatName
DayMonth
Amount
If I don't have a table for dates, then for every category for every employee, I would have to enter the date...right or wrong? Or am I thinking flat.

While trying to "normalize" a developing database, a question has come up. I have two sets of information that will probably never change. Hair color and Eye color. Should these be put into a separate table or can I include those two fields in the table containing information about the person and then use the lookup wizard function in the table design and "type in the values I want"? I am using '97. Thanks.

I have produced a query, which counts the number of records fulfilling each set of criteria, but I can't now convert that into the matrix presentation.
I have a attached a copy of what is produced currently through Excel.
Basically each count on the query represents one of the boxes within the matrix. For example if the record Impact is 1, and the Likelihood is 1, then it would be counted within the bottom left hand box.

I've been asked to consolidate data from a number of different sources, rationalise and set up some access controls to restrict viewing/editing. The raw data is combination of personal data, cost codes and dates.
My company supply labour and materials to offshore facilities, where our staff work on a rotational basis. These swings typically run 2 weeks on/2 weeks off, but often can run shorter periods. We need to track who is offshore and at which facility, both to prevent double bookings and identify when we can book people in for training etc. This data also needs to form the basis for our timekeeping application.
I've created the base tables successfully, rationalising where possible, however I cannot for the life of me figure out how to replicate the current process of assigning people to their rotation.
The travel team currently use a matrix where the user info is broken down by trade and name in the left hand column, then the dates are displayed in a row across the top. The process of allocation is then simply colour code the dates where the person is booked on or off.

Is this possible in Access at all, or if not, is there a means of at least displaying the data like this?

I'm a novice in fact this is my first serious try at creating a database. I'm setting up a database to track contracts both potential and active for marketing. This will be converted to a SQL when I have it finished. I have a customer table setup in the fashion of a contact list. Most of my forms need to access the information in it via a list box. I want to set these list boxes to generate a new record in my customer table if the name that is entered is not currently in that list. By using the event option "On not in list" I'm able to get the form for the customer table to open but when the new data is saved and the Customer form is closed the information is not available to the list box. How do I get it to update the list box without having the user start from scratch on that particular form?

I've been doing a lot of research and reading on databases and normalization and things of that sort because I need to create database from scratch. I've been maintaining a db that someone else made, but it turns out I will have to recreat the whole thing because it's not useful anymore and the users need a more user friendly db. I have a couple of days some are:
tblTO
------
TONumber
Contract
Product Directorate <- combo box 20 items
Document Type <- combo box 15 items
TOManager <- combo box 10 items
tblTOItem
----------
Product <- combo box 13 items
JobNo
BasicDate
ChangeDate
ChangeLevel
TotalBillablePgs
TotalTextPgs
TotalArtPgs
Standard <- combo box 22 items
TemplateVersion <- combo box 20 items
SourceFormat <- combo box 15 items
SourceLocation <- combo box 10 items
The ones I have the arrows for will be a combo box on my form.
My question is should I make each of these field a table of its own?
For instance make the Product field a table and list all the 13 products there?
Or keep the Product field in the tblTOItems and in design view of tblTOItems use the Lookup Wizard and type in my values there to make a lookup column.
I have seen it done both ways, and I was just wondering which way is more efficient.

I created a report where is lists sales volume by day. I was asked to create a table where data can be excluded from this report. The exclusion table consists of only three fields:
Date Department and a check box
What do I need to do in the query to have it exclude the data listed in this exclusion table. The table only holds data we want excluded, not all dates and departments.
I originally added the table to the source query and made the criteria "False" for the check box but when the query runs it does return any data at all.
Please help!

Hi.. Junior access user here. Need help fast!
I created 2 tables. [General Info] & [Details]
[General Info] has 2 fields. Name(is a primary Key as well) & Organisation
[Details] has 4 fields. Primary Key, Name, No of products & Type
[Details] is a sub form for [General Info]
It is a one to many relationship. With Name from [General Info] linking to Name from [Details].
I can update via the table directly and [Details] links the name fields automatically. I created a form but the form just cannot register the field automatically and requires the user to type in the Name from [General Info].
I have attached the DB file. Pls help... your help is greatly appreciated!

I am designing a little database to hold physical activity log info for 2 school districts, required by a grant. Four-five times each year every kid (2000) will complete a log form for 3 days that lists separately for 34 intervals (1/2 hour each, from 7am - midnight) in which physical activity s/he engaged (59 options) and the level of effort of each (4 options, from light to very hard).
The log sheets look like a datasheet with 5 blank columns: #1 enter the activity code (1-59) and #2-5 mark an "X" in the column describing level of effort (light to very hard). There are 34 rows, each labeled from 7am thru midnight in intervals of 30 minutes. The kids **have to** enter an activity code and a level of effort on every row. They do this for three days in a row, 4-5 times during the year. (believe it or not ... federal grant requirement)
.........................#1 .......... #2 .........#3 ........#4 ....... #5
TimePeriod ......ActivityCode .Light ....Moderate .Hard ...VeryHard
7-730........ | .................. | ....... | ............ | ...... |............. |
730-8........ | .................. | ....... | ............ | ...... |............. |
8-830........ | .................. | ....... | ............ | ...... |............. |
I am maintaining survey responses (also 4-5 times a year) in this same database. I have a basic demographic table (Id, name, grade level, school). I am also maintaining eating habits (4-5 times per year) from food logs, like the activity logs, but these are for 5-7 days at a time. Finally, I will be importing number of steps walked for 4-7 days (also 4-5 times each year) from pedometer downloads, one per kid.
I have all tables and data entry forms except for this activity log set up, all data entered for the baseline period. What I would like to do with the activity log is something like a main form showing kid name, ID. I think I want to enter each row of the log (34 rows) into something like a datasheet, each row with a date field (I will use CTRL-' to copy down for one page of the paper log), and an activity code field (1-59 as codes) and a level of effort field (1-4, light to very hard).
What I think I want is one table for activity info, each record with these fields:
Kid_ID
Date_Logged
Time_Interval (these are the 34 rows, 7am - midnight, in 1/2 hour intervals)
Activity_Code (options 1-59)
Level_of_Effort (options 1-4)
I can see this in a datasheet format, but entering 2000 kids * 3 pages * 4-5 times a year [* 3 years] into Excel does not seem to be an efficient solution.
If I could open a form on the screen with a combo box to pick a kid and then pick a date, then fill in 34 rows of activity codes (1-59 as options) with a level of effort for each (1-4 as options), that would be great.
My obstacle right now is how to display 34 empty rows already loaded with an index related to the time interval, so that I don't have to enter that for each row -
Hence my subject descriptor, "data entry in matrix format". I am using Access 2007, Windows XP Pro (all service packs etc. up to date).

All,
I have a quick question that could lead into a longer one.
First off, I am trying to associate tests with a course a student is enrolled in. Would it be better to add a column in the courses table and have a comma separated list of all tests associated with each course or would it be better to create a separate table that has a column for the course and another column for the associated test with that course?
If comma separated fields would be better, how would I handle that in forms? How does one parse that field?
Thanks!

Helo…please really need your help.
I designed a small desktop database to automatically import some Log files. A sample of a transmit log file (emails sent from our rural email stations) looks like this when imported in access.
Date Time Direction SenderMessageID
03062005 133501To InternetemailX@ab.comBlablabla
03062005 125001To InternetemailQ@ab.comBlablabla
03062005 125001To InternetemailZ@ab.comBlablabla
03062005 125001To InternetemailA@ab.comBlablabla
I would like to be able to query all emails sent between one date and another. However, the date here is recorded has a string or text. I would like to automatically add a field with the date as Date/Time datatype in the Table. I think I should be able to do this with a few SQL statement like ALTER TABLE myTable ADD COLUMN NewDate AS datetime…and then another SQL statement to separate data and put it into this new field.
Then I could query for BETWEEN Date1 and Date 2 easily.
I’m pretty close but been trying for a while now and always error messages as results. I think I really NEED help this time.
Thank you,
Ghislain Bob Hachey

Hi all,
This is quite a basic question and I'm sure that it has been posted here some time ago, although I couldn't find it on using the search.
I want to update a field in one table "FieldA" using an update query. I want the update to be based on matching Field B in the updated table, and Field C in a separate table (both tables have the same design structure).
That is, I'd like my query to search each record in the Destination Table to see if its Field B matches a Field C in a separate Table. If there is a match, I'd like to Update Field A to the corresponding field A of the reference table.
I have tried to do this with an Update Query based on both Tables in design view. Thus far, it hasn't yielded any results.
Can someone please post the solution asap. Thanks so much for your help.
Regards,
Mike J.

What I would like to do is parse this string as such:
Column B:"Al"
Column C:"Peggy"
Column D:"Kelly"
Column E:"Bud"
Column F:"Buck"
Is there a simple VB funtion to accomplish this?
