I don't quite understand this error message, and therefore cannot begin to fix it. One of my forms will not open except in design view because of a "Type Mismatch in JOIN expression" error. Can someone please tell me where to look to fix it? Thanks.
View RepliesOkay, I apologize, I'm not extremely Access knowledgeable so bear with me.
I have an Access database I created which I thought was working okay, then I realized it was missing one vendor because we haven't started writing checks to that vendor yet and probably won't for a while.
I am using a make-table-query to create a table that combines data from two linked tables. The two linked tables have a matching field (VendorID) one linked table is "History" and the other table is "Master" (these tables are SQL data from MS Great Plains if you need to know that).
Now my problem ... not every VendorID in Master table is present in History table.
I first created the join statement to say use all records in History and only those records in Master that match. This works without any error statements, however, I discovered there is a significant field of detail that is being omitted because a VendorID is in Master, but since no checks or invoices have been created for that VendorID it does not exist in the History table yet.
I decided to change the join properties to say "include all records in Master and only those records in History that agree". When I try to run the query I receive the error message "data type mismatch". I feel certain it is because several of the fields have no information to draw from on the vendors that don't exist in the History table.
What I need the query to do is go ahead and use the information from the Master table and when there is no matching VendorID in the History table use a zero for those fields.
I used to program and know a little C+. I understand "if" statements and feel like a sql if statement could work around this (for example, if History.VendorID does not exist zero, else History.[fieldname], but I don't know how to go about doing it. Any help for a novice would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance
Looks like mismatched join types has caused others plenty of headaches in the past!!
I am trying to create a query that connects 2 separate areas of our factory.
The first table (Table 1) has a field called prod_code which is a text field and this code (5 digit number) describes a manufactured product.
The next table (Table 2) also has a field called prod_code which is also a text field, is a different 5 digit number, and describes the same product but after packaging.
There is a 3rd table which I want to use to link both of these tables, but in table 3:
table 1. prod_code = table 3.item_code, and is a long integer. and table 2.prod_code = table3.item_code_prnt, also a long integer.
I need to be able to use table 3 to correlate data from tables 1 and 2.
I suspect I need to use Clng or similar but am unsure how to apply it.
Have been trying to construct an expression but continually get error (bracketing error, join mismatch etc, etc)
Any clues?
This is an Access 2000 question.
Now, I know what the error message is supposed to mean, despite my total newbie-ness. My table Product has p/k ProdID (autonumber, long integer) and my table Items has ProdID (number, long integer) as a f/k. It's a one-to-many relationship (each Item is only one kind of Product, but each Product may have multiple Items.) But when I try to run a query in Access, I get the "Type mismatch in expression" error. The only relationship is between a number and an autonumber as described above.
Does anyone know what might be going on?
hey,
can someone pls tell me why i get an Type mismatch in expression err with this code:
INSERT INTO tblACAD ( PROIZVAJALEC, TIP, DN, KOSOV )
SELECT tblsifrant.Proizvajalec, tblsifrant.Tip, tblsifrant.DN, tblsifrant.Kosov
FROM tblsifrant, tblACAD
WHERE (((tblsifrant.Sifra)=[tblACAD.TIP]) AND ((tblsifrant.DN)=[tblACAD.DN]) AND ((tblACAD.KOSOV)>0));
If i remove one criteria to get this code then there are no err, but thats not what i want:
INSERT INTO tblACAD ( PROIZVAJALEC, TIP, DN, KOSOV )
SELECT tblsifrant.Proizvajalec, tblsifrant.Tip, tblsifrant.DN, tblsifrant.Kosov
FROM tblsifrant, tblACAD
WHERE (((tblsifrant.Sifra)=[tblACAD.TIP]) AND ((tblACAD.KOSOV)>0));
I create this code in design view so all the names and tables are correct.
So does anyone have any ideas?
Thx
Hi all,
I'm using DB to run a small poker league, here's my setup.
Tables:
players - player_id (autonumber), player_name (text)
tourn - tourn_id (autonumber), venue (text), entry_fee (number, currency), tourn_date (date/time, medium date), n_entrants (number, integer<>0)
status - status_id (autonumber), player_name (from players table), tourn_id (from tourn table), position (number, integer<>0), winnings (number, currency)
I'm trying to create a query, that groups by player name, the count of tourn_id, victories (count of position=1), cash_prizes (count of winnings>0), sum of winnings, sum of entry_fee, net winnings (sum of winnings - sum of entry_fee)
With the help of someone else, I get this, but I keep getting error msg "type mismatch in expression"
SELECT P.player_name, Count(T.tourn_id) AS CountOftourn_id, Sum(S.winnings) AS SumOfwinnings, Sum(T.entry_fee) AS SumOfentry_fee, (SELECT Count(position) FROM status WHERE position =1
AND status.player_name= P.Player_Name) AS victories, (SELECT Count(winnings) FROM status WHERE winnings>0
AND status.player_name= P.Player_Name) AS Cash_prizes
FROM tourn AS T INNER JOIN (players AS P INNER JOIN status AS S ON P.player_name=S.player_name) ON T.tourn_id=S.tourn_id
GROUP BY P.player_name;
What's wrong with the above?
Thanks in advance

I am getting the error "Data type mismatch in criteria expression" when I put sorting on the following field in a query:

If I remove sorting the query works fine. When I add sorting to this column in the query design grid, I get the error message.
Any ideas?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to set a recordset, and I keep getting this data type mismatch error, but I cannot see what the problem is. Here's my code:
Set rstAccounts = dtbCurrent.CreateQueryDef("", "SELECT [Account ID], [Balance] FROM tblAccounts WHERE [Account ID]='" & txtAccountID.Value & "';").OpenRecordset
txt.AccountID.Value is 1, and when I hard code the value as 1 it works, so I'm not sure what the problem is. I've tried using CStr() to convert it to a string, CInt() to convert it to a integer (even though it already is one), with using both quotes, with only double quotes, and with only single quotes. It's driving me crazy, because i'm sure it's something really simple, but I'm not sure what else to try.
Thanks in advance.

I have a query which runs fine until I set a criteria (of True) in the field
Code:
chase_it: prevwd([practice_bacs_submission_date])<Date()
So without the criteria, I have
Code:
SELECT prevwd([practice_bacs_submission_date])<Date() AS chase_it, practice_bacs.practice_bacs_submission_date
FROM practice_bacs
WHERE (((practice_bacs.practice_bacs_submission_date)>#1/31/2013#));
and in the query results I see 0 and -1 as expected for the 'chase_it' expression BUT When I add True (or -1, or 0) as a criteria for 'chase_it', I get the "Data type mismatch in criteria expression" error.So the sql that fails is
Code:
SELECT prevwd([practice_bacs_submission_date])<Date() AS chase_it, practice_bacs.practice_bacs_submission_date
FROM practice_bacs
WHERE (((prevwd([practice_bacs_submission_date])<Date())=True) AND ((practice_bacs.practice_bacs_submission_date)>#1/31/2013#));
In case it's relevant, my function prevwd is:
Code:
Function prevwd(dt As Date) As Date
10 On Error GoTo prevwd_Error
20 dt = dt - 1
30 While Weekday([dt]) = 1 Or Weekday([dt]) = 7 Or IsBankHoliday(dt)

and this function is used extensively and always works perfectly. I have tried using DateAdd instead of dt = dt - 1, but that made no difference.

I have two tables in a query joined by a ID field. The problem is in the one table the ID fiels is a text format and in the other table its a number format so the query builder doesnt like that and gives me the Type mismatch in expression error.
There's no way around it though; i need it to be those formats in its respective tables for reasons i wont go into here for simplicity.
"Data type mismatch in criteria expression" Error 3464
I get this on the <DoCmd.OpenForm "frmWrittenStatements"> in my code.
How on earth are any criteria attached to this?
I am working on a fairly ancient manufacturing database that identifies items using a combination of letters and numbers. The usual format is to have a letter (which suggests something about the item type) followed by a sequence of numbers.
I am trying to write a query that looks up all the records beginning with a prefix or arbitrary length, strips away the text, and finds the highest number.
Code:
SELECT Right(LocalID,Len(LocalID) - 1) As IDSuffix
FROM tblItemIDCrossReference
WHERE Left(LocalID,1) = 'T' AND IsNumeric(Right(LocalID,Len(LocalID) - 1)=True)
This query produces the error given in the title of this thread, whilst the following works:
Code:
SELECT Right(LocalID,Len(LocalID) - 1) As IDSuffix
FROM tblItemIDCrossReference
WHERE Left(LocalID,1) = 'T' AND IsNumeric(Right(LocalID,5)=True)
This related query also works and shows a load of -1s and 0s correctly
Code:
SELECT Right(LocalID,Len(LocalID) - 1) As IDSuffix,
IsNumeric(Right(LocalID,Len(LocalID) - 1)=True) As Alias
FROM tblItemIDCrossReference
WHERE Left(LocalID,1) = 'T' AND
But once again shows the error message when I try to filter the field Alias to -1 or 0 only through the right-click menu.I have tried piping Len(LocalID)-1 through CLng, CInt, Int, CDbl and CSng; this changes the error to 'Invalid Use Of Null' I have also tried removing the '=True' from the IsNumeric() term.
I have an update query for tGLCashAccount where it adds a value from another table with the BeginningBalance to arrive at CurrentBalance.

Here is SQL code:
UPDATE tGLCashAcct, tMakeNewCashBal SET tGLCashAcct.CurrentBalance = [tMakeNewCashBal].[TotalPrice]+[tGLCashAcct].[BeginningBalance]
WHERE (((tGLCashAcct.GLCashAcctID)="102"));

I've been toiling with the issue of WHERE clauses on the "Right" side of Left Joins. I'm aware that you need to use JOIN ON......AND.... rather than JOIN ON....WHERE.... if the WHERE relates to the Right Hand table.
I've even got an example in my DB where the above works, but now am struggling to use the same theory for other tables. Therefore, I went and created two Mickey Mouse tables to test the logic but am getting an error.
I have
Table 1 with one field called Field 1 - values A, B, C
Table 2 as follows
Field 1.....Field 2.......Field 3
A.............100
C.............200..........XXX
I hoped to have a query that finds all records on Table 1 and records on Table 2 where Field 1 matches on the two tables and Field3 = XXX
My SQL is
SELECT Table1.Field1, Table2.Field1, Table2.Field2, Table2.Field3
FROM Table1 INNER JOIN Table2 ON Table1.Field1 = Table2.Field1
AND Table2.Field3="XXX";
but I get Join Expression not supported
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks

Hi
I posted this on the end of the audit trail thread but nobody was really looking at it. I have used the script for the audit trail, and when I start changing any of the records, it comes up with the error:

When I ctrl - break, and debug, it highlights the last line of the script:

Call Audit_Trail(Me)
Form_BeforeUpdate_Exit:
