Tables :: Joined Two Tables - Unable To Filter / Lookup On Second Table?
Feb 18, 2013
I have an Access Table with about 28,000 Automobile dealerships across the country shown. I've joined a new/small phone contact table to this to keep up with our phone contacts with the dealership and followup efforts. When I search/filter on the dealership table all is fine. However when I search/filter on the phone contact table with a few test entries, I get nothing at all. I supposed that after joining the tables, I'd be able to do a search on the field named follow up date and find/filter today's date or other dates and locate which dealerships to contact when the correct date arrives. But nothing.

I've created a table (Films). One of the fields is linked to another table (People). The table 'People' is a list of people with a categorization next to them (e.g. actor, director etc)
Is there a way that I can create a field called 'Actors' in the table 'Films' and for the drop down only to display those people who have been categorized as an actor?

If I use order by on a query that has two linked tables I keep getting an error:
This is the query
SELECT d.PDetailsID, d.po_id, d.po_uniqid, d.job_id,

What I'm trying to accomplish is probably really simple that I just can't get it to work. I have set up the relationship properly, I think. Here is what it looks like:
tblProjects(ProjectID[PK],ProjectName, ProjectType, ProjectDate)
tblMembers(MemberID[PK], MemberName)
tblRoles(RoleID[PK], RoleName)
tblProjMemb(ProjMembID[PK], ProjectID[FK], MemberID[FK], RoleID[FK])
Each project will have three different member roles. Here is what I'm trying to get from my db:
myQuery(tblProjects.*, tblMembers.MemberID As Role1ID, tblMembers.MemberName As Role1, tblMembers.MemberID As Role2ID, tblMembers.MemberName As Role2, tblMembers.MemberID As Role3ID, tblMembers.MemberName As Role3)
I need Role1ID = Role1 If when tblProjMemb.RoleID = 1. I need to create a column for each of the three member roles and have the name of that person in that column.
I'm not sure how to accomplish this. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks!

I have two tables in my database
Agents
Zip Codes (linked table)
If I create a query and then a form off the query that includes fields from both tables - Access will not let me add new records.
Ultimatley what I am looking to do is have a zip code field in the Agents table that I fill in and then it will automatically look at the zip codes table and then fill in the zip code, county, & state in a different area of the form.
I tried using fields from both tables and tried a query using fields from both tables and it will not let me add new records.
I have a relationship between the fields in both tables.
What am I doing wrong. I know this can be done.
Any help would be great!!!

Hi,
I have problem with pdf-ing a report that has record source coming from a query namely from the two tables joined based on the same of several fields (foreign keys).
I have PDF coding that would turn Access report to PDF report. It has no problem when the report's record source is from one table only.
Just wonder if anyone who might have a similar issue would like to share with me some help. Is it normal that PDF doesn't work if the report comes from joined tables in Access?
Thank you in advance

I am using the following query to identify rows in one table that have no match in another:
SELECT MAS.MASID
FROM MAS LEFT JOIN IVT ON MAS.Field1=IVT.Field1
WHERE ((IVT.IVTID) Is Null);
MAS is one file with MASID as the key.
IVT is the other file with IVTID as the key
This provides me a list of the rows in MAS with no match in IVT.
I now want to delete these rows in MAS so we can process the other fields in the table.
what is the syntax for the delete statement? I can't get the join to fit in correctly.
Help!

Hi,
I am getting information on products stored in a query. I want that query to check a couple tables to see if an item is linked through all of them. If it is not listed in the last table (catalog) I want it to be shown.
Code:Catalog tableVolume Prefixprodno Price15 - CE 0218 9.9915 - CE 0722 3.7215 - CF 0218 12.3615 - CF 0091 14.00Source TableSource MediaCM70904 15 - CE
Code:Batches QueryCustomer Number Prefixprodno Source716933 0218 CM70904716933 0408 CM70904
This is the Select Statement I'm using, which gets the 0218 but not the 0408 I want
Code:SELECT (fieldnames......)FROM [Batches] INNER JOIN ([Source] INNER JOIN [Catalog] ON [Source].[Media] = [Catalog].Volume) ON ([Batches].Source = [Source].[Source]) AND ([Batches].Prefixprodno IN ([Catalog].Prefixprodno))WHERE [Batches].[Customer Number]=716933;
If I do NOT IN I get both 0218 and 0408. I just want 0408. I'm sorry if this seems confusing but any help would be amazing at this point =/

I have been asked to design a database to replace our old excel sheet to log one of our customers server builds. It a four noded system and i require a seperate log for each node serial models of parts etc, qa checks.
I intitial started by just using one table but forgot the limit was 255 rows, i need about 600 - 700. So my plan is now to transfer to indivial table for each node. Then, a general table named Main for all my other details.
Although this seems simple, i now have the annoying task of being able to link them all together and produce a single PDF file to send to our customer whilst only entering our system serial number once to produce this.
My basic understanding will be to create a System Serial Number field in each table a link it via relationships, but if i produce a report with everything i need would it input my details for all four nodes? If so how would i set this up?
I will be splitting the database once completed and then making a ACCDE file for my techs to use.

I can not, or not allowed to enter data in fields in a query built from three tables that are jointed by a common field with the same name. The parent table is linked to another Access data base as is one child table the other is local data. Also, I am not able to view the child table data when viewing the parent table.

I a report based on query based on joined tables. Im using FK and PK accordingly in the tables and have a junction table.
I've attached a sample (removed all unique identifiers for privacy in case you're wondering).
Table structure as follows:
Employees tbl - Junction (License Link tbl) License No tbl, License Class tbl, Endorsements tbl
So the query runs on all of these tables.
When I build a report on the query, Simon shows up Six times. I suspect because he has six endorsements.
How do I produce a report on this table/query structure so that I get:
Simon.
Class, 1,2,3,4,5
Endorsement F,R,T,W,DG

Hello all,
I have made a crosstab query that is sporatically making duplicate counts. I'd like to know how to fix the problem, but more importantly - I'd like to know why and how my query is giving me these results so I can avoid making this same mistake again.
The relationship is set up so that all records from one table are returned, with only matching records from the other - so no problems that way as far as I can see. This is my crosstab query that is giving some counts of the same record as being matched sometimes two, three, or even four times:
TRANSFORM
Count([Testing DB].[DB_ID]) AS [CountOfDB_ID]
SELECT
[Testing DB].State, [Location].[North], Count([Testing DB].[DB_ID])
AS [Total Of DB_ID]
FROM [Testing DB] LEFT JOIN [Location] ON [Testing DB].[Address] = [Location].Address
WHERE (([Testing DB].[Window Length]) Is Not Null))
GROUP BY [Testing DB].State, [Location].[Size]
ORDER BY [Testing DB].State, [Location].[Size]
PIVOT Format([Date],"mmm-yyyy");
When I do a simple query for a list of the records being counted by this query, I can see the duplicate entries and can eliminate them simply by adding "Distinct" to the select statement - but I haven't had any luck adding any kind of distinction with this crosstab that will do the same.
How can I eliminate duplicate counts of records in my crosstab? If anyone has a suggestion, it would be much appreciated.

I have a query, that I have a criteria to show appointments in the past (< Date()) but one result doesn't show up although the appointment end date is a past date, it only shows up when I fill in a field that is in another table that is joined and part of the query. But there's no criteria there for it to not be null.

I have problems understanding lookup tables, especially how to populate them with data. I'm working on an exams database, and have many such tables...
Table for Students
Table for Subjects
and a lookuptable for studentsubjects
Table for Classes 1, 2, 3, 4
Table for Subjects Eng, Math, Geo, Chem... 11 subjects in all
and a lookuptable SubjectClasses
Having inserted data for all subjects and all classes, should I then go ahead and Insert data for SubjectClasses? There will be 44 items!
Even more appalling, studentsubjects table will have (no of students * 11) for my small school, it will be 1,760

I know experienced DB developers say never to use a lookup in a table for a foreign key and instead to use it on the form level. For this reason, I am going through my tables and removing lookups from the table level now.
But how do y'all feel about lookup value lists? (so the list is typed-in instead of looking up a table value)
If you think they shouldn't be used then what should I do instead? Should I make a table for the handful of values and link with a FK field?
Or is there a better way? I would rather not have to make a million tables for these short, stable value lists.

I've designed a database at work to collate information about locations around the world that are contaminated by conflict and military activities. I'm struggling with the use of the lookup wizard to populate some fields in one table from another table.The database is ultimately meant to be used to identify contaminated sites in various countries and also to be a source of data for an online interactive map. As such, it needs to hold a fair amount of information. I figured that it would be normal that some fields and tables would be connected to one another. So, for example:
Country table is looked up by the conflict table to provide the names of countries participating in a conflict. To do so I used the lookup wizard. Similarly, the Site information table is looked up by the Site contamination event table to provide the names of contaminated sites. The Site contamination event table. Then the Site assessment table looks up the Site contamination event table to provide the name of contaminated sites. The relationship between these three table is intended so that at any given site multiple instances of contamination and their subsequent assessment can be recorded. This is where I started noticing problems. When I tried to input some fields into the Site assessment table, specifically the 'Site name', it would only display the primary and foreign keys in the drop down menu but not the 'Site name'.
- Have I messed up by relying on the lookup wizard in my table design? This seems to be the consensus in this and most forums (I checked another thread in the 'Tables' forum here). That said, I've seen some people making a distinction between using 'Lookup tables' and 'Lookup fields within a table', but given my relative newbyness I'm struggling to see the difference!
- If the answer is yes then what approach should I take to achieve the same aim (having multiple tables that feed information to one another). Initial research seems to suggest putting lookup/combo boxes in my forms. I'm dabbling with that at the minute but so far the results haven't been as desired.
I've attached a zip file with a screenshot of my relationships diagram to give an extra idea. Note that the relationship between the 'Site assessment' table and 'Site contamination event' table isn't showing up as I removed while trying to troubleshoot, but it is supposed to be one-to-many from 'Site contamination event' to 'Site assessment'.

A field in a table can be populated by a lookup up but it has to be done manually or with a form.A "new" table can be created with a query that matches the data.
Is it possible to skip these steps and create a field that automatically populates with the data from another table based on other common data?I can do this in Excel but not sure it can be done in Access.

I am creating a table for data entry. Three fields in the table are going to be Firstname, Lastname, and Address. I want the choices for data entry to be read from a master table which contains first and last names and town of residence.
That being said I would like the choice of Lastname to be all last names from the master table, and the choices of Firstname to be those from the master table but are limited to having the Lastname as entered in the previous field, finally I want the Address field to be limited to those records which match the lastname and firstname. I have been playing around with lookup queries for each of the fields to no avail.

We have a lookup table that has a list of CLIN numbers and their costs. The contract that governs those CLIN numbers and costs will be changing to entirely new numbers. Unfortunately, I still need to have the old and new CLIN numbers linked to the other tables.
Will I need to merge all the CLIN numbers into one lookup table, or can I do it from two lookup tables?

When designing a table I've created a field and set its lookup properties to display a combobox with a row source that returns a DISTINCT set of values already entered into the field.
After a row insert or row update the combobox needs to be required to ensure its list is complete.
If I create a form to display my datasheet this is easy. But I'd prefer to enter data directly into the table datasheet directly. I need to enter simple data into about 20 different tables and I'd prefer not to create 20 forms unless it's really necessary.
The lookup wizard generated entries similar to those I'd previously created manually, except the wizard generated a couple of extra settings that appeared briefly that were not part of the regular set of lookup tab properties. These additional settings referred to 'update propagation'. Once they'd disappeared I couldn't see any way to get them back..

I have to design a price list table which is currently done in Excel.
The table looks like this :
[Headers]
Product Group | Layers | (this are quantity bands) 0-100 | 101-500 | 501-1000| etc
Test1 | 2 | £10(normal) £9(special)
The quantity band currently is fixed to 5 bands but would need to be flexible. There are also 2 prices for each of the quantity band (normal/special)
At the moment my table design looks like this:
ID
fkSupplierID
fkProductGroupID
txtLayers (value list)
intMinQty
intMaxQty
curNormalPrice
curSpecialPrice
This works quite well with the query to return price based on product group, layer and order qty. However I am not very sure if this is the best way to design this. I am just thinking about maintenance - for example when the supplier puts in a price change or when the quantity band changes. The current format (quantity band) is based on a major supplier but in the future we would like to adopt this for any supplier.

I have a table "Product" and in this table I have two fields "StoragePlaceID1" and "StoragePlaceID2". Both these fields link to the look-up table "StoragePlace"
*Attached Image "Product_StoragePlace" from the Access Relationship Window"*
When I want to add a new Product from my inter face i get the error you can see in the Attached Image "Save_Error".I think the problem is that the Relationship is defined as One-to-Many,there a way to define the relationship as Zero-to-Many.
