creating mailing labels starting with an Excel Workbook imported into Access. When I get to the point of previewing the labels, there seem to be maybe 10 blank labels. I don't have a clue how this could happen but I obviously don't want to waste the ten or so labels (out of about 90 total). setting the print area and removing empty Worksheets, but nothing works.

Hi all,
I have been trying to create a database that looks after staff holidays.
Here's how it looks at present
TBL_Holidays:
Staff_Index
Staff_Name (From a lookup)
Start_Date
Number_of_days
TBL_Holidays_Booked:
Staff_Name
Dates_Booked
Once the form (FRM_Holidays) is filled out I had (until I gave up and decided to ask for help - 2 weeks) a button that went off and run a append query.
Here's my problem. Once the button is pressed I need the TBL_Holidays_Booked to fill with the Dates_Booked.
ie.
John Smith wants his holiday to start on the 1st August for 10 days.
The resulting TBL_Holidays_Booked would look like the following:
John Smith 01/08/06
John Smith 02/08/06
John Smith 03/08/06
..
John Smith 10/08/06
Is there a way to do this? or is there a simplier way of doing it?
Regards
Mark
Hello
I have a back-end database which imports a spreadsheet which is automated. Every-time the spreadsheet is imported a large amount of blanks appear above the information i require.
Is there away i can automatically stop this from happening?
HELP?
I have co-workers cutting and pasting names into the database name field and some of them are having an empty space in front of the name. Is there a way to get rid of the space or add a valadation for this? What is wrong with these people, this is just laziness at its best!
When a search for names is brought up, they are not shown due to the space so they are not in A - Z order...
In a query, I'm using concatenation to join multiple address fields (organisation, building number, street address, etc) into one field. I'm also inserting line breaks to create a formatted address and then creating a form on the query so the formatted address appears in a text box and can be copied and pasted straight into my label-writer software to print address labels.
This is the concatenation code I'm using:
Expr1: [Organisation] & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & [Building Number] & Chr(13) & Chr(10) etc.
However, one problem with which I am now presented is where a field is blank. E.g. if one of my contacts is retired, then they don't have an organisation listed in the "Organisation" field. This means that a blank line is left between their name and the rest of the address.
When running a mailmerge there is the option of skipping blank fields so that a blank line is not inserted in such cases.
How can I achieve this within the above code?

I want to combine six different memo fields into one. I found this code and it works to combine two fields so I edited to add a third and it does not do anything.
Code:
Comments: [QAComments1] & IIf(IsNull([QAComments2]),"","; " & [QAComments2])
This is my edited code to add a third field:
Code:
Comments: [QAComments1] & IIf(IsNull([QAComments2]),"","; " & [QAComments2] & IIf(IsNull([QAComments3]),"","; " & [QAComments3]))
What am I missing to add the other fields?
I have five address fields:
add_1
add_2
add_3
city
county
zipcode
What I want to achieve on my (Word) letters, forms, reports etc is a concatenated list that does not have any blanks!!
city, county and zipcode will always be filled however it is possible that add_2 and add_3 could be blank. I hope I am explaining this correctly?
How do I achieve this? I envisage a query which produces just one list that I can just add to my documents but I am struggling with the formula to ignore the blanks.
I'm using Access and VB for the first time, trying to develop an application for hobby use. I built and populated my database, and I'm building my first module. Unfortunately, one of the most simple actions is tripping me up. I'm attempting to perform an action only if a 255-character text field in a file doesn't contain data, but comparing it to " " or "Space$(n)" doesn't yield the actions I'm expecting.

The issue are the blanks in the rows for each Name. When I bring it up on the form, I want the columns to be the Customers but only customers with amounts. The original form is there to show the name and position and the form within the form should have 1 row for name of the person that is being selected and columns of customers WITH A BALANCE.
Hi all,Desperate for help on this.The query below ran like a charm for this years database which was full of entries, but when I did a quick test run for next year with limited entries the 'Temp' table fields were all blanked. All the individual queries, 1 through 9, work fine on their own and work fine in this linked form when there is enough data in the database to cover all the fields. Apparently if only one query is blank all the fields will be blank.For instance if there are multiple registered households, table ‘1’ would normally show a count of those households, but if none of those households have children, table '2' which counts children will be blank and in turn blank out all the rest of the fields including table ‘1’.I've tried the ‘is null, '=0" and ‘nz’ routines on the Count(Tablename.Fieldname)'s, but can't seem ‘to get them to output a value of 0 in the null fields. I must be doing something wrong. Any and all help would be very much appreciated.SELECT Year(Now()) AS ProjectYear, [1].CountOfClaimID AS Households, [2].CountOfPersonID AS Children, [3].CountOfPersonID AS Participants, [4].CountOfSponsorID AS SponsorsTotal, [5].CountOfHouseholdID AS Sponsored,[6].FamiliesWithChildren, [7].SponsoredFood, [8].SponsoredGifts, [9].SDSD INTO TempFROM (SELECT Count(Household.ClaimID) AS CountOfClaimID FROM Household GROUP BY Household.RegStatus HAVING (((Household.RegStatus)=-1))) AS 1, (SELECT Count(Members.PersonID) AS CountOfPersonID FROM Household INNER JOIN Members ON Household.HouseholdID = Members.HouseholdID GROUP BY Household.RegStatus, Members.Status HAVING (((Household.RegStatus)=-1) AND ((Members.Status) = "Child" ))) AS 2, (SELECT Count(Members.PersonID) AS CountOfPersonID FROM Household INNER JOIN Members ON Household.HouseholdID = Members.HouseholdID GROUP BY Household.RegStatus HAVING (((Household.RegStatus)=-1))) AS 3, (SELECT Count(Sponsors.SponsorID) AS CountOfSponsorID FROM Sponsors GROUP BY Sponsors.SponsorStatus HAVING (((Sponsors.SponsorStatus)=-1))) AS 4, (SELECT Count(Sponsorship.HouseholdID) AS CountOfHouseholdID FROM Sponsors INNER JOIN Sponsorship ON Sponsors.SponsorID = Sponsorship.SponsorID GROUP BY Sponsors.SponsorStatus, Sponsorship.SponsorshipYear HAVING (((Sponsors.SponsorStatus)=-1) AND ((Sponsorship.SponsorshipYear)=Year(Now())))) AS 5,(SELECT Count([Table0].HouseholdID) AS FamiliesWithChildrenFROM (SELECT Households_All.HouseholdID, IIf([Children]>0,1,2) AS FamChildrenFROM Households_AllGROUP BY Households_All.HouseholdID, Households_All.ChildrenHAVING (((IIf([Children]>0,1,2))=1))) as Table0) AS 6,(SELECT DISTINCT Count(Household.HouseholdID) AS SponsoredFoodFROM Household INNER JOIN Sponsorship ON Household.HouseholdID = Sponsorship.HouseholdIDGROUP BY Household.RegStatus, Sponsorship.SponsorshipYear, Sponsorship.FoodHAVING (((Household.RegStatus)=-1) AND ((Sponsorship.SponsorshipYear)=Year(Now())) AND ((Sponsorship.Food)=-1))) AS 7,(SELECT DISTINCT Count([Household].[HouseholdID]) AS SponsoredGiftsFROM (Household INNER JOIN Sponsorship ON [Household].[HouseholdID]=[Sponsorship].[HouseholdID]) INNER JOIN (SELECT Households_All.HouseholdID, IIf([Children]>0,1,2) AS FamChildrenFROM Households_AllGROUP BY Households_All.HouseholdID, Households_All.ChildrenHAVING (((IIf([Children]>0,1,2))=1))) as Table0 ON [Household].[HouseholdID]=[Table0].[HouseholdID]GROUP BY [Household].[RegStatus], [Sponsorship].[SponsorshipYear], [Sponsorship].[Gifts]HAVING (((Household.RegStatus)=-1) AND ((Sponsorship.SponsorshipYear)=Year(Now())) AND ((Sponsorship.Gifts)=-1))) as 8,(SELECT DISTINCT Count(Household.HouseholdID) AS SDSDFROM HouseholdGROUP BY Household.RegStatus, Household.SDSDHAVING (((Household.RegStatus)=-1) AND ((Household.SDSD)=-1))) as 9; Thanks much,aldo
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've created a report which shows zeros in various columns where there aren't any values to report. I think the report would look better and be easier to read without these zeros. I would like to suppress them and display blanks instead. I'm not sure how to do this.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI was trying to filter a word using Not Like "word" in my query cirteria, some data is blank also, From this record i want to retrieve the result. But when i use Not Like Criteria, filter is working but blanks columns are also filtered.
I want to display all records (including blanks) except what i shown in the criteria.
I have a list box on a form which uses the following SQL to pull the list items from a table :
SELECT DISTINCT tblMyTable.MyField FROM tblMyTable ORDER BY tblMyTable.MyField;
For some reason, during testing, the first two items on the list are blanks. I am quite happy for one blank to be returned at the top of the list (as this would easily identify for the user any records for which this field has not yet been completed, which is a good thing) but I can't understand why it would appear twice?
Why doesn't the DISTINCT command ensure any blank entries only appear once?
Incidentally, I have a subform which populates on the back of selections from the list boxes, so I can quickly see the corresponding records which generate these blanks. What's puzzling me is that the same records show for both blanks on the list - suggesting it is the same value repeating itself (and not, say, "" vs " ", for example, which was what I originally suspected...)
I have a field in my database that list the number of personnel folders a person has, I would like to print labels for each folder for that person. For example, if a person has 4 folders I would like to print 4 of the same label at once by clicking the command button I have set up to print the label. The default is set to 1 label but I need the number of labels to change according to the number of folders listed. Can this be done and if so how?I will be using Avery 4031-20 labels

Greetings,
Have an address list with over 600 names, and I need to create mailing labels.
Have First Name, Last Name fields, with city, state zip. BUT...
There is also a field called SPOUSE. This field is NOT always populated.
I need a query that I'll use to create the mailing labels that will;
Have the FIRST NAME SPOUSE NAME LAST NAME
If the SPOUSE field is blank, I need the query to filter that out, so that the address lable will only show First Name and Last Name, without a blank space in between.
Also need the query to put the '&' sign in IF there is a spouse.
Example 1: John & Jane Doe
Example 2: John Doe
Any assistance will be appreciated!

Uh, hi. I'm new to using access, and I'm wondering if its possible to display an autonumber at the top of a form in a label box. For example, if I had a field set to autonumber and was ading a new record to the database, could I display the autonumber field on the actual form?

Hi
I have created a report for labels using the Label Wizard, and found the code on the MS KB about skipping the labels that have already been used, and printing on the next one along.
Page on MS KB (http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=299024)
When I try using this code in Access 2003 however, it seems to go into some sort of loop, and produces 100+ pages for the report when I try and skip 1 label for example.
Can anyone help me get this working for 2003?

I have a report that is broken down by regions. Each Region could have multiple entries for each. I would like to have a Summary at the bottom that counts each Region on the report and gives a total for the report. What I am getting is it counts each time there is an entry for the region. I assume since I have the Region as a Header it still thinks it is listing it multiple times. Any help???
