Unable To Return Query If A Field Is Left Blank

Dec 27, 2007

Hi all,

I am having a problem getting my query to work properly. I have read through this query section but it just got me more confused. I know some have used IIF function but it didn't work for me.

here's my code:

SELECT tblEmployee.UserName, tblODF.ODFNumber, tblQueue.Queue, tblStatus.Status, tblODF.ODFScanDate
FROM tblStatus INNER JOIN (tblQueue INNER JOIN (tblEmployee INNER JOIN tblODF ON tblEmployee.EmployeeID = tblODF.EmployeeID) ON tblQueue.QueueID = tblODF.QueueID) ON tblStatus.StatusID = tblODF.StatusID
ORDER BY tblEmployee.UserName, tblStatus.Status, tblODF.ODFScanDate;


I want everything to show even if one of the fields is blank.

Thank you

Queries :: Date Range Query - Return Lines Where Field Is Blank In Table

Aug 15, 2013

I have a single table with customer information, one of the fields is a date field "LastContacted".

I'm creating a search form with 2 date fields (txtDate1 & txtDate2) to search a date range of the LastContacted field, and I need to write this into the query that the search form uses.

I have written this using Nz so that it can still return results if the search boxes are left blank:

Between Nz([Forms]![frm_AdvancedSearch]![txtDate1],#01/01/1989#) And Nz([Forms]![frm_AdvancedSearch]![txtDate2],#01/01/2999#)

This seems to work and it returns lines from the table where there is a date entered. However some of the fields in the table have no entry in the LastContacted field. How to code this query so that it also returns lines where the LastContacted field is blank in the table?

I have tried:

like "*" & (Between Nz([Forms]![frm_AdvancedSearch]![txtDate1],#01/01/1989#) And Nz([Forms]![frm_AdvancedSearch]![txtDate2],#01/01/2999#)) & "*"

but this returns errors when I try to run it.

I'm using Access 2010.

Apr 10, 2014

I have a questions database. When user is filling out the form, the following fields are required: Questions, Author, Type of Question and Answer selected.

I only get a warning about the Author and not the Answers.

Blank Or Duplicate Return From Query?

Apr 21, 2006

I have searched for an answer and spent some hours but still not getting it.

I have played about with the query joins and still nothing?

I have never had this problem with my database in 5 years (well not that i have noticed).
Some records are fine others are triplicated and quite a lot are blank?

This is the SQL for the query.

SELECT Employee.EmployeeID, Employee.FirstName, Employee.Surname, Employee.Address, Employee.[Town/City], Employee.Region, Employee.DateofBirth, Employee.Nationality, Employee.MaritalStatus, Employee.PassportNo, Employee.ExpiryDate, Employee.Nextofkin, Employee.Relationship, Employee.NOKAddress, Employee.ContactNo, Certificate.CertName, EmployeeCert.Level, Trade.TradeName
FROM Certificate INNER JOIN (Trade INNER JOIN ((Employee INNER JOIN EmployeeCert ON Employee.EmployeeID = EmployeeCert.EmployeeID) INNER JOIN EmpTrade ON Employee.EmployeeID = EmpTrade.EmployeeID) ON Trade.TradeID = EmpTrade.TradeID) ON Certificate.CertID = EmployeeCert.CertID
WHERE (((Employee.EmployeeID)=[Forms]![Employee]![EmployeeID]) AND ((Certificate.CertName)="IRATA"));

Basically i have to solve this problem.

I have a report that is based on this query and if the employee is not displayed correctly instead of the employees Name and Surname i am getting "#Error" ?

Many thanks in advance

Combo Can Not Be Left Blank

May 11, 2005

I am wanting to ensure that a couple of combo boxes are not left empty, searching the forum I found this:

Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
If IsNull([cboBox1]) Or IsNull([cboBox2]) Then
Beep
MsgBox "Please enter a value etc ", vbCritical, "Incomplete Data Entry"
DoCmd.CancelEvent
End If
End Sub

This is similar to other solutions I came across, problem is it isn't working, I have 2 controls on my form called cboBox1 & cboBox2 so I can't see why it wouldn't work. Would be grateful for any suggestions.

How To Show All Records When Parameter Left Blank?

Feb 26, 2007

Hi guys, I have a query that displays records that fall between 2 dates (using 2 input text fields). How can I make it dispaly all records if the user just leaves the dates blank?

I've searched through some forums and found that I can make this happen by using IS NOT NULL. But when I tried putting it in the OR row in my date field (and all other places), the result is that the query displays all records that have a date value regardless of my other filters.

Can anyone point me in the right direction where I should actually place the IS NOT NULL? I attached my Query view for easier understanding.

Thanks a lot!

Between Function - Show All Records If Left Blank

May 10, 2013

I am creating a query which uses 2 unbound text boxes to populate a Between function for 2 date fields. If I fill in the dates, it returns the corresponding data. If I leave them blank, however, it returns no records. Is there an easy way to tweak the query to return all records if left blank?

Unable To Return To Form

Jul 26, 2006

I have a form, containing a subform.

The form displays various fields for the user to enter order details.

The subform is populated with all previous deals for the person whose deal is being recorded. This subform is purely for display purposes and the data shown cannot be edited.

The problems I have are:

1) When a user clicks anywhere on the subform. They can tab through the fields or scroll around the subform without any problems. However, when they try to return to the main form, all controls on it appear to be locked.

2) Clicking on the subform removes focus from the main form, so saves the record being edited on the form. This is a big problem, as the order may be in error and/or incomplete. I only want the user to be able to save or cancel the record, using specific buttons on the main form.

Is there any property for the sub form I can set to prevent the above from happening?

Thanks in advance.

Modules & VBA :: Subform Date Filter That Shows All Values If Left Blank

Mar 2, 2015

I am a bit of a novice when it comes to Access, but have managed to create a form with a subform embedded and various filters to show different data within the subform, including a date range filter. The code I have used for these filters is as follows:

Private Sub Command40_Click()
Dim strCriteria As String

strCriteria = createCriteria("[Introductions].Town", "List78")
strCriteria = strCriteria & " and " & createCriteria("[Introductions].Ownership", "List52")
strCriteria = strCriteria & " and " & createCriteria("[Introductions].Company", "List54")

[Code] ....

This all works fine, but I'm wondering what I need to add to this code to make it so that if the date boxes are left blank, records from all dates are displayed. At the moment I have to enter dates in order for it to work properly.

Aug 28, 2013

I have a table with Zip CODE field. I uploaded my information to this table form an excel file. There were over 120K rows of data so no way i could do this in excel.

So I found that some of the ZIP codes are either blank or have less than 5 digits.

Can I build a a query with the ZIP code field that will return all zip code records with less than 5 characters or blank. I'd like to repair these zip codes and a update query will be my next step.

I repeat excel is not an option because when I try to sort by the Zip Code column my computer explodes (okay not literally) ....

I've been given a flat-file database to 'improve'. One field is simply titled 'Room' and refers to a room number in a school. I want to create a MakeTable query that will run through all the records and make a table containing one instance of each room number (for normalizing). Hope that makes sense!

Any help much appreciated,

Query To Return A Field To Determine Value For Report

Apr 14, 2008

I have a field on a report which I am struggling to produce the right query for.

I have a table - tblTillDept which consists of a 4 fields. The first is the PK, which is the number of a till department. The second - fourth fields are names of 3 different branches of the small garden centre I am writing the database for. The values in these fields are the names of the corresponding departments. Not every branch has exactly the same name for each field.

Prior to the report being is run, a small form, frmCentre pops up asking the user to select the Centre they are printing the labels for. They select the name of the branch from a combo box (cboCentre) bound to a field list of tblTillDept. When the report is formatted, the intention is that the value of this combo box selects the field from which the value for the department is taken. I can see that I need to set the control source of this property to some sort of query, but I can't quite work out how to do it.

I've uploaded the database, written in Access 2000, here (http://www.moppy.co.uk/plants.mdb) as it's too big to post as an attachment.

Query To Return Records Containing 2 Characters In A Field

Sep 5, 2013

I have a field in Access 2010 called Section Number which generally holds two characters. The characters can be numbers, letters, or a combination. Examples are:

01
X1
KA
40

Sometimes this field holds three characters, such as:

01a
02b

I want to write a query that returns only the Section Numbers that contain two characters. The instances where the field holds three characters are too numerous and changeable to use a parameter that says, for example: not "01a" and not "02b"

Is there a way to write a parameter that means "not Section Numbers of three characters" or "not Section Numbers of more than 2 characters"?

I have the following calculated field in a query:

LoanNo:IIf([Stats].[LoanCnt]>1,[Stats].[LoanCnt] & " Loans",[Loan].[LnNo])

Within its query, it correctly displays the loan number associated with a particular loan.

However, when I run a second query

SELECT LoanNo
FROM qryLoanInfo

it comes up blank for every record (other fields are OK)

Does anyone have any idea what might be happening?

Queries :: DLookup To Return Value Of Field In Query Expression

Oct 30, 2013

I have a field created in a query expression

BirthMon: Format([DOB],"mmmm")

I would like to create another field in the query using DLookup to return the value of the BrithMon.

BrithMonthID=DLookUp("MonID","tblListMons","BirthM on = Mon")

This works good if used with an unbound text box on a form, but when entered into a query expressions, an error is returned: cannot find the name 'BirthMon'

Can I used DLookUp in a Query expression to refer to another Query created field?

Modules & VBA :: Return Rows In Query From Variant Array Return From UDF

Sep 16, 2014

I have a simple UDF that takes a string and returns a variant, which is an array of strings Example Input "Brick Wall" Return value would be a variant array with first element "Brick" and and second element "Wall" Now I have a table with a field of strings, and I want to make a query that returns all the results from the function, one per line.

So if my input table looks like this

[strField]
"kick the ball"
"return the pass"

my query result should looks like this

[Orig] [new]
"kick the ball" "kick"
"kick the ball" "the"
"kick the ball" "ball"
"return the pass" "return"
"return the pass" "the"
"return the pass" "pass"

Last time I had to do something like this I used VBA exclusively, with ADO objects, but I thought a query based solution would be easier.

With my current data the largest return array size my function returns is 27 elements but I wouldn't want to rely on that number being fixed.

Blank Date Field Default On Query Criteria

Oct 8, 2007

Hello.

I have a query that is pulling data based on a date in a table. For some records, that date field is empty. For those records, the data should be pulled based on the date of 1/1/06. I tried doing this
=IIf([Signed SLA Received] Is Null,1/1/06,>=[Signed SLA Received])

It doesn't like this at all, it brings back no data. I also tried putting 1/1/06 in quotes, but it didn't make any difference.

This is probably a totally incorrect way to get this done, but I don't know how else to try it.

Thanks!
Stacey

Modules & VBA :: Return A Value From A Separate Query / Have To Show Up In A Field On Main Form

Jun 28, 2013

I want to return a value from a separate query and have that show up in a field on my main form. The field name from the query is "Six Month Date" and the query name is "DT6Monthqry". I want to return the value displayed in the"Six Month Date" from the query, matching the CustomerID in the query result to the CustomerID that is being displayed on the main form. The CustomerID is a text field.This is the code I placed in the Control Source property for the field I want to be displayed on the main form:

=DLookUp("[Six Month Date]","DT6Monthqry","CustomerID=" & [CustomerID])

The result of this displays a flashing "Error" in the field, even when I go to a Customer that I know has a result in the "DT6Monthqry".
