UPDATE Table From Query Results?
Jun 9, 2006
Alright, i'm almost sure this isn't the best way of doing this,
But i wanna build a scoring system out of three criteria. cost, delivery, and qaulity. I have those tables built along with a contact table where there over all score will be tallied up. Each contact can have more than one entry in the criteria.
So what I did was i built a query to make a new table for each contact to generate the score and the contact id, then using that ID, i update it to the contact table using the UPDATE function...however wheni have 3 criteria, and 400 contacts..this obviously becomes painfully slow.
The question is, is there a way to directly pull the sql query results (summing the total of each contacts score for each criteria), then storing it into the contact table without making a new table in the process?

Let's say Table (T1) has fields F1 and F2. After a massive update to T1, there are some records with F1 = "" because a Dlookup using F2 as criteria to another Table (T2) resulted in a null. I created a select query to show unique T1F2 values where T1F1 = "". The user can use this query to find out which F2 values need to be added to T2.
How do I create an update query that will update T1F1 with values from T2 using the T1F2 results from the select query to again use the Dlookup to T2 (of course after T2 has been updated to contain the missing F2's)?

Hello,
my problem is, I have a form with a sub-form that displays results of a certain query. Now, on the main form I have buttons that manipulate this query.
What I want is, after the SQL of this query has been changed, the sub-form to show updated query results based on the changed SQL. When I close and re-open the form, the sub-form shows the most recent query results, but I want this without having to close and re-open the form, how?
In the VBA code, I already the "Requery" method of the sub-form but I guess I need to do something with the querydef object, too....
Thanks in advance!

I run a physical therapy office and patients come in for treatment either 3, 4 or 5 times per week. My database is used to track these frequencies (among other things).
I have 3 queries which count how many patients come in 5, 4 and 3 times/week.
In my main table I have fields called "how many 5's", "how many 4's" and "how many 3's".
I have tried to design an update query which will update those fileds in my main table to reflect the counts in the 3 queries mentioned above.
(I'm not using SQL view, I'm using the query design view)
In the "update to:" row, I use the Build function and locate the count I'm looking for.
Problem: when I run the query I get the error: Operation must use an updateable query.

I created a main form containing list boxes and a subform. What I want to do is to select items in the list boxes. Then, by clicking "Search" button, the data filtered by the selected items will be shown in the subform. But the subform cannot work and show the query results. I think I miss some VBA codes.

Hello,
I have a query that prompts the user for input to generate a report.
I would like to in essence copy that same record set and append it to a different table (archive table).
Not quite sure how to go about it.
Thank you

I have a query that checks an expiration date field and displays the word "Expired" in another field if applicable. This query is used to look up items, then the user would enter whether or not it is approved right in the resulting data grid thereby entering that approval into the table being used for the query. Can I do something with the query so that if the item returned has expired, a user would not be able to enter anything into the approval field? Something like, if field1 = "expired" then lock the table? I can't use a form, I have to just do it in the basic query or forget it. I would very much appreciate any suggestions!

Advanced apologies for the long question.
I have a table providing a list of all members of a local bowling club, with the following fields - MemID, MemName (table is tblMembers)
I also have two more tables providing details of matches we play in a local bowling league. The first table holds the basic match information (called tblMatches) - MatchID, Date, Opponents, ScoreFor, ScoreOpps. I've used a MatchID field as more than 1 match can be played on a single date.
The other table provides details of who played in what match and on what bowling rink and is called tblMatchDetails, with the following fields - MatchID, MemID, Rink (numeric), Result (numeric - 1 for win, 0 for loss). Each match uses different rinks, and not all rinks are used in a match, however, each rink can only be used once in a match.
We have 10 rinks, and I was looking to see if I could get a table to show me the match details along with the rinks in numerical order with who played on them in what match and their result.
For example:
Field Row: Date - Opponents - ScoreFor - ScoreAgainst - Rink 1 Player - Rink 1 Result - Rink 2 player - Rink 2 result - [and son on upto] - Rink 10 player - Rink 10 result.
Row 1: 01/01/2005 - Example BC - 4 - 3 - [blank] - [blank] - Fred - 1, etc
Row 2: 08/01/2005 - Other BC - 5 - 2 - John - 0 - [blank] - [blank], etc
I produced a query for each rink in turn which looked in tblMatchDetails and provided the following (the queries are called qryRinkOneDets - or whatever rink numebr was used):
MatchID - PlayerID with a criteria field of rink = "1" or whatever number rink it is for.
I then produced a second query providing a link of the matches (tblMatches) and the rink queries (qryRinkOneDets, etc), with the joins between the MatchID fields in tblMatches and the individual queries to provide every record from tblMatches and only those records from qryRinkOneDets where MatchID was equal.
However, the results I got only showed the match details and no info from the Rink query. If I change the join from RIGHT to LEFT, then I get the records from the Rink query but not from the Matches table. If I then do a join where only the MatchID's from the table and query are equal (an INNER join) then I get no records at all.
Can anyone figure out what I'm doing wrong?
Many thanks in advance

I have a query that outputs results like:
Company ID | Data A | Data B | Data C
101 | results |results |results
102 |results |results |results
103 |results |results |results
104 |results |results |results
105 |results |results |results
In another Table containing additional company information, I have the primary key as the company ID, and I want to make the query that outputs the above table, auto-fill the blank fields in the existing Company information with the same headings as Data ABC etc.
However, I don't want the query to add full new records (which I think is the Append Query?), instead I want the existing company records have additional fields (Data ABC) added, with information from the Query added.

Basically, I originally wanted to create a form which I can input data into Access with by using a button (I was unable to get Access to append the information from the forms to the table, so it didn't work out!). I did not want the fields on the form to be linked to a table, as then a record (and most importantly an auto-number) is created as soon as somebody starts typing. Should somebody stop typing halfway through and quit the form an autonumber will have been generated, which makes the number of "users" seem higher than it actually is. I got around this by changing the field from autonumber to number and then creating a query that selects the maximum value of ID in the table, then adds 1 to it (which is essentially the lowest unique number. I tend to call this newID).
The problem I now have is setting this to be written to the table alongside the data from the form (the rest of the fields on the form are now connected to the table, as I am no longer using an autonumber). I have tried the following: Setting the form to run the expression "[ID] = [qryMaximumUserID]![NewID] " on load. This returns the error "The object doesn't contain the Automation object 'qryMaximumUserID.' Setting the control source of the text box to be dLookup. This fills the textbox with the correct value, but then it doesn't write it to the table! Setting the default value of the field to be 0, then running an update query to update any ID of 0 (criteria "0" to the value of newID "update to: [qryMaximumUserID].[NewID]. "). However this doesn't work as whenever the query is run it asks for a parameter to be entered, rather than just taking the value from the other query. Writing a macro that is run on load to SetValue of item:[ID] to expression: [Forms]![qryMaximumUserID]![NewID]. However this returns an error "Microsoft Access cannot find the referenced form 'qryMaximumUserID' you entered in the expression.

I have a form that users can input data into and based on that data it runs a query and generates a report. These reports can be different based on user entered data on the form. My issue is within the report I would like to sum certain fields. The problem with trying to sum theses fields is that they show up on each row so I have hidden duplicates but when trying to sum the field it still trys to count the hidden duplicates thus giving a value that is of no use.
I have tried many methods to sum but one of the problems I continue to run into when I create a text box and build an equation and reference the field I would like to sum is when the report runs it is asking for a value to be entered for the field I am attempting to sum. I shouldn't need to enter a value as I am trying to obtain the value.

I have successfully used VBA to populate select query results into an excel worksheet on open, for a co-worker. Now I am trying to populate the records from an append query to the bottom of those results, which are now in a table on an excel spreadsheet, Contractor EIF. I am trying to make this work because my co-worker modifies the results in the table, deleting rows, adding fill color etc. and as new projects begin he would like those added to the projects already in the table (without rewriting the entire table).

I have a table, with a related value in another table. E.g. A Items table with a batch value from another table.
I have a form to enter how many of these items has been used and from which batch number they belong.
The batch number is from a dropdown, and batches can be finished(exhausted) and marked such in the table so they no more show in the dropdown.
All this works fine, until, I go back to a entry which was from a batch that has been finished. The combobox is empty although the (Already finished) batch number is mentioned in the table. This is perfectly normal as my query for the combobox is :
Code:
SELECT ItemBatch.ItemId, ItemBatch.ItemBatchNumber, ItemBatch.Finished, ItemBatch.ItemName
FROM ItemBatch
WHERE (((ItemBatch.Finished)=False)
AND ((ItemBatch.ItemName)=[Forms]![ItemMasterForm]![ItemDataSheet].[Form]![ItemName]));
What I want is to show the current batch number as well. I tried to make this query get the current value, but wasn't successful. I tried to make a calculated field based on the dropdown and show its value.
Is there any way I can show the batch number in the datasheet? I have to use a datasheet and not a form, because there will be many sub records for the main form, and having a form will be very uneasy.

I'm using an UPDATE query to update records in one table (tblMain) from another table (tblTemp)
Here is my SQL :
Quote:
UPDATE [tblMain]
INNER JOIN [tblTemp] ON [tblMain].[MainField1] = [tblTemp].[TempField1]
SET [tblMain].[MainField2] = [tblTemp].[TempField2];
I only want to update the records in tblMain which have a corresponding record in tblTemp (linked by MainField1 / TempField1)
If any record doesn't appear in tblTemp, I want tblMain to retain the existing value for that record.
However, it appears that in such situations, the record in tblMain has it's MainField2 value set to null / ZLS.
I've tried using LEFT JOIN and RIGHT JOIN and also tried WHERE clauses but the result is the same every time.

I have a table (ANSWERS) that has the following fields:
CASE_ID, E1, E2, E3, E4. The ANSWERS table is based on the CASE_ID's in the OBLIGATION TABLE and the CASE_ID field is the only field populated.
Then I have two other tables:
OBLIGATIONS table and WAGE table and each has only one field, CASE_ID.
The WAGE table has only CASE_ID's where there is a wage assignment in place.
What I want to do is populate the E1 field in the ANSWERS table with YES for all the CASE_ID'S in the OBLIGATIONS table that that match the CASE_ID's in the WAGE table. Can someone tell me or show me how to do this?
Either I'm stupid or this is hard to explain...sorry.

How to update a table from a query. I have a database that tracks overtime, if an employee calls in sick, he is unable to work overtime for 2 weeks. I have a freeze table that tracks the employee, the date they are frozen, to the date they are available to work again.
I would like a query that when ran, will look at the Available to work Again field and if the date they can work again matches todays date, it then edit the employee table turning the freeze field from Frozen (Yes), to Unfrozen (No).
I am using two table
tblemployee and
tblFrozenOvertime
the tblemployee has the overtime Frozen field
and the tblFrozenOvertime table had the Available to work again field which is also on a frmFrozenOvertime.

Hi there.
Does anyone know how to use an update query to copy some records from one table into another?
I have table1 which has all the contact details and what I would like to do is work out a process for importing records from an excel spreadsheet.
What I have so far is as follows:
1. In access go into the queries tab and select update query
2. Open both table1 and table2
3. Drag the fields to be updated (table1)
4. In Update to select [table2].[table2 column name]
When i run this nothing appears to happen. 0 records are appended.
Does anyone now how to go around this with another solution or should I be using other SQL methods?
All comments much appreciated
Thanks

Hi all,
Simple question...I think. Is it possible to update values in a table, based on the results of a query?
For example, I have tblPRR and qryProcessed.
When I run qryProcessed, I would like the field "Status" in 'tblPRR' to update from 'No' to 'Yes'.
Could anyone advise if this is possible?
Cheers
Rob

I would like to run a query and then be able to edit that information. I want the data I change to be put into the table the info was gathered from. Right now when I edit the query data it only saves it there, not on the other table. I tried to do the copy to table but the original table was going to be erased and then written over. What should I do? thanks
