Trouble With Between Criteria In Parameter Query
Oct 8, 2007
In MS Access 97 I have a basic query based on a single table. When I use "Between [Start Date] and [End Date]" as the criteria in a date field it returns incorrect records.
It works correctly on date fields that are not calculated but not on the date field that is calculated. If I type in the actual dates in the criteria (instead of the prompts) it returns the correct records.
Is there a solution to this behaviour? I need the users to be able to input the dates.
Thanks.
P.S. I have tried using the base query as a subquery but I still have the same issue in the second query based on the subquery.

It is possible to create a parameter query in Access that will search for records that match the parameter entered by the user AND contain all other records that have that value plus other text.
For instance you may want Access to return all records that begin with the letter Q.
To do this you need to enter the following expression into the criteria row:
Like [Find records beginning with:] & "*" Or Is Null
The user can enter a Q and the criteria concatenates the wildcard character * to this parameter value, to find all text strings that begin with a Q.
By also using Or Is Null in the criteria the user can enter a blank value into the parameter query to return all records, even if this field is blank.
But how do I search if i want all the records with John anywhere in the field???

Hello Everybody,
I have an append query that contains a parameter [PTIdent] under the field named PTID. I would like to be able to set the parameter through VBA from a control on a form eg Form!PTID
I use the following code as normal
Private Sub Command19_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_Command19_Click
Dim stDocName As String
stDocName = "apNewPres"
DoCmd.OpenQuery stDocName, acNormal, acEdit
Exit_Command19_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_Command19_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_Command19_Click
End Sub
Is there a way within this code to do this? I realise I could set the form criteria within the query itself. However I wanted to be able to use this query from multiple forms.
Thanks for any help

I have a table that has three columns: Nationality, Gender, and Date. First I had the problem of grouping the Nationality column by Gender. That i resolved by creating a crosstab query. Now, I want to put a criteria on Date field so that when the query is run it will ask for the date input and will only show the Nationality and Gender result for specific dates. But when I write something in Criteria field it shows an error saying: "The Microsoft Access database engine does not recognize "[Registration Date]" as a valid field name or expression"..

I had an issue with writing LIKE statements in query criteria yesterday [URL]....
The answer they gave worked perfectly when I only used a single table in the query. But as soon as I did an INNER JOIN with two other tables, now I get parameter value prompts when I open frmSearch, and instead of seeing ALL my records when the controls are left null, I get only the first record in the table.
Here's the SQL of the query, can you point out what I messed up? NOTE that this SQL was 'written' by Access.. as I used the Query builder to set all the 'Like or Is Null' statements, then clicked SQL and sorta formatted the code so I can see what I'm looking at (instead of superthick wall-o-code):
Code:
SELECT tblPeople.name, tblPeople.num
FROM (tblPeople INNER JOIN tblAddresses ON tblPeople.name = tblAddresses.name)
INNER JOIN tblPets ON tblPeople.name = tblPets.name
[code]....
Basically, this is a searchable database of participants in a pet-adoption program, along with the participants' pets history and address history (hence the linked tables as opposed to additional columns in one single table for pets and addresses... there are more than one in some cases). The frmSearch allows a person to run quick searches based upon ANY item in the database, such as name, pets, addresses, pet age, pet type, county of residence, etc. I need to be able to pick ANY field on frmSearch and type a value, and have the qrySearch return records for ANY record's related column wherein any part of it matches what I typed.
The statements as written worked PERFECTLY right up until I added the INNER JOIN. Now I get a set of parameter value prompts for every field on frmSearch that's referenced in the SQL for EACH table I linked to tblPeople, and if I leave everything null and click Search, I want to see EVERY person, but I'm only seeing the very FIRST person in tblPeople.

I've created a farm database, with a form (frmSearch) that will allow user to filter data. The form comprises of combo box and list box etc... for the user to input their own criteria. The subform below has a datasource. The data source is based on a query (qContractionSearch) which is basically a parameter query with 3 tables. The problem is, however, that it won't work with 3 tables... but will work if data source comprises just one table.
See the farm database attachment...and go to frmSearch...then go to Contraction tab. (The Cattle tab filter works fine-it only has a single-table datasource).i have a requery macro which runs whenever the user clicks 'search'.

I have a report that is fed by a parameter query. When a command button (Command23) is clicked a parameter box opens and the user enters a subsystem number. A report for that subsystem then opens.
I want to open the report with VBA and show a message if the user has failed to enter a subsystem number in the parameter box and just clicked OK.
The problem is I don't know how to refer to the parameter box and detect if it has been left empty before clicking OK. I first tried to use IsNull in an If statement with Command23.Value, but now realize it is the value in the parameter box I am after, not the "value" of Command23.
How can I change my code to detect if the parameter box has not been filled out?
Private Sub Command23_Click()
If IsNull(Command23.Value) Then
MsgBox "You did not enter a Subsystem", vbOKOnly, "No Criteria Entered"
Else
DoCmd.OpenReport "rptTESTInfoBySubsystem", acViewReport
End If
End Sub

My form-based search mechanism uses controls to set the parameters for the query data source.
I have one field call quantity in stock. I could you a Between and And method to allow the end user to input the stock quantity they want.
HOWEVER, i would love it for the user to first select the Comparison Operator (e.g. > , <, >=, <=) from a combo box and then in an adjacent text box, enter the quantity.
The expression i entered in the query goes something like this.... Forms![frmSearch]![cboRange] & [Forms]![frmSearch]![txtQuantity]
When i try and run this, i get the message "THe expression is too complex to be evaluated".

I am trying to create a parameter query to return dates that have 2 years remaining.
For example I have dates for when mortgages expire, and I want to recognise the dates that have two years remaining using a parameter query but I can't figure out if I use DateAdd or DateDiff.

Hi all,
Been pulling my hair out about this for a while, so i hope someone's feeling kind:
http://www.agga.dsl.pipex.com/pics/AWF01.gif
I'm using the BHRefPrefix to build part of a reference number. The Principal and Site exist on a separate form, and i need to use both as criteria in order for the correct BHRefPrefix to be returned.
I sort of get it working using two joins, but it doesn't let me add any new records. I've tried straight queries, queries with DLookup expressions, and i just can't get what i need.

Hey I am trying to create a query that selects only certian values within a field in the based table. Easy ehough. HOWEVER, the field in the table that I am trying to select certian values from is a LookupWizard. So in that one field, there is a drop down box with one other value for a total of two values in one field.
So I am at a loss for how to properly select things using the criteria in a query. Ive tried Criteria: Like "value" for both values in the look up wizard,but no luck.
any help is appreciated!

Hi All,
I have a parameter-query and when you execute it and 'fill in' the parameter it takes a very very long time when the results are displayed on the screen.
Now, that seems normal if you have a very large table, but when I enter the parameter in the criteriafield manually it displays the results immediately. Very strange. I have indexed the field so that cannot be the problem.
Does someone know what I do wrong?

I can't believe I haven't run into this before, and since search for the forum just gave me a database error...
I have a Form, with combo box parameters that pass to a query that fills a subform. So I can see all the records from the beginning, each parameter uses a Like [parameter:] & "*" criteria.
The problem is that one of my parameters is a number and that if I select 1, it'll also give me 11, 12, 13, etc., or anything that starts with a one (same for 2, 3 and on of course). I realize that with "like" that this is by design, but how do I have it just to show what I'm looking for, but keep the functionality of show everything when nothing is selected.
Please keep in mind that I use "design" mode and never use SQL.

Problem:
I have a datediff function as a field in a query:
DateDiff("d",[ClientHistory].[Date],Now())
When I put in the criteria: >30
I get two results based on the datediff values equal to 37 and 110 for the two records.
Now problem: when I use >[Enter value] for the criteria and enter 30 at the prompt. I only get the record with 37, even though 110 is higher...
It seems very inconsistent based on the values I enter at the parameter. Have you ever experienced this or know what might be going on? All works fine if I hard enter the number in the criteria of the query, but not when I use a parameter.
I'm using Access 2000 on Vista and XP - both systems have the problem

I'm trying to create an query that has two separate expression in it and a date selection criteria. The first expression is,
Expr1: DateDiff("s", [Arrival Time 1],[Departure Time 1])/3600
and the second is,
Expr2: IIf([Expr1]>[Hours Per Day],[Expr1]-[Hours Per Day]
When I run this query it asks me for the date (which is fine) but then it also pops up a box asking for "Expr1". How can I get "Expr2" to use the value returned from "Expr1"?

I have attached a small db that has 1 query with several fields..
Here is what I'm looking to do.
In the Query there is the following fields:
SignINMemberID
GuestOfMember
SignInDateTime
AllowedEntry
Now all these are derived from tdatMemberSignIn.
What I want to do is show the name that corresponds with the MemberID in table MemberList.
That means if the SignInMemberID exists it would show First and Last Name and if GuestOfMember is blank it would show nothing.
If the SignInMemberID doesnt exist but the GuestOfMember does then it would show the First and Last name beside that field.
If the number doesnt exist it would be blank.
I entered the places I wanted to show the data in the query for your reference as expr1, expr2, expr3, expr4 for your reference.
Any help would be appreciatted.

I have set up a query to return the records of pupils with certain information, most of this information comes from a subform, (i have set up a form with multiple subforms to make data entry easier for the user) with these subforms many records have multiple subform records (i.e. Joe Bloggs has 3 different Approved hosts and 3 approved drivers) when i try to make a report it wants to print the same data 9 times (because there are 9 differnet combinations i asume) what i want to to is have the approved drivers in one list box and the approved hosts in another list box and have the report print only one!
can anyone help me!
please!

I have a form whose data source is a select query, q3, that is built from 2 other select queries. I'll call them q1, q2, and q3. q1 is a parameter query where I enter a "Cutoff Date" that the 3 queries manipulte and generate the desired results that appear in the form. The problem is that I don't know how to capture the parameter "Cutoff Date" from q1 to display on the form.

Trying to create this thing is tying my brain in knots, so I'm back for help. Hopefully I'm missing something basic:I've finally been able to normalize my database by taking it offline for a few weeks, and already the amount of duplicative/erroneous data that has been cleaned up is staggering. Right now I'm trying to ensure that our data is as complete as possible in the following circumstance: tableGroups has PK GroupID tablePeople has PK PersonID tableRelationships creates a many-to-many relationship between the two, via PersonIDLookup and GroupIDLookup. It also has its own Autonumber PK. tableRelationships also has fields that describe the relationship: For example, FormerRelationship, MailingContact, and PublicContact are all boolean fields. What I want to do is get a list of all GroupIDs which do not have any entry that is marked PublicContact. Problem is that some may have Former contacts, or privately listed ones for internal office use only; over time our Public Contacts move, die, quit, etc and sometimes they have not gotten replaced. I'll need to do the same thing for MailingContact as well, but the procedure for one should be the same as the other. No one who is a Former contact should also be listed as Public/Mailing, but I can't promise the data is that clean at this point.The only thought that occurs to me right now is to make one query that shows GroupIDs that do have at least one matching relationship, and then create a Find Unmatched query that relates to that. Is there something simpler with only one query?

This is my first time posting here and I hope you guys can help me.
I have a problem with using a crosstab query.
My original table looks something like this
VALUES
Oil_ID (PK)
Property_ID (PK)
Col_Heading (PK)
Row_Heading (PK)
Values
Oil Name
Property Name
I made a crosstab query with the columns being 'Col_Heading' and the rows being 'Row_Heading' and the values being 'Values'.
I made a form that has two combo boxes (Oil Name, Property Name). It also has a subform in which I want to display the crosstab query.
Now here comes the problem. Those two combo boxes need to be able to filter the data, but I am not able to put the code:
IIf(IsNull([Forms]![Values Form]![combo52]),[VALUES].[Oil Name],[Forms]![Values Form]![combo52])
IIf(IsNull([Forms]![Values Form]![combo66]),[VALUES].[Property Name],[Forms]![Values Form]![combo66])
in the Criteria because an error pops up saying: "The Microsoft Jet database engine does not recognize 'above_code' as a valid field name or expression.
So I created a select query, call it QueryA', that would let me filter the data. The I created a crosstab query based on QueryA, but the same error message occurs.
I am stuck. If you could help me, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks
