Union Queries - Results Showing As Text & Not Numbers
Dec 13, 2007
To cut a long story short, i've got a union query that is a full outer join of 2 tables.
Anyway, the results i have got back needed formatting to no decimal places.
How do i do that?
I've tried leaving it as it is and formatting it in the report, but it still doesn't format and i can't total it up.
It's like it is showing as a text and not number.
Is there a way of converting the result to a number, particularly in a sql query.

I have created a database for my hobby of being an (American) football official. I have one table of officials and another for matches to track the matches that I have worked. There are 3-7 positions that officials can work in any one match.
I want a query that will tell me which officials I have worked with and in how many matches (in total regardless of position). I have created a union all query to give me a list of officials names each time they appear. Rather than giving me the result as the names it comes back as the ID numbers from the Officials table.
The SQL query is:
SELECT Ref FROM Matches WHERE Ref Is Not Null
UNION ALL
SELECT Umpire FROM Matches WHERE Umpire Is Not Null
UNION ALL
SELECT LineJudge FROM Matches WHERE LineJudge Is Not Null
UNION ALL
SELECT HeadLine FROM Matches WHERE HeadLine Is Not Null
UNION ALL
SELECT BackJudge FROM Matches WHERE BackJudge Is Not Null
UNION ALL
SELECT SideJudge FROM Matches WHERE SideJudge Is Not Null
UNION ALL SELECT FieldJudge FROM Matches WHERE FieldJudge Is Not Null;
The field used in each position is a full name field ([Surname] & ", " & [Name])

I have a simple union query that looks like this:
Code:
Select DPTag from tbleqDP UNION ALL select ESGTag from tbleqESG
It is returning all the tags from both tables but putting them all under "DPTag." What I want is two columns in a report. One would have the header "DPTag" and all the values under it would be the tags from tbleqDP and the other would have the header "ESGTag" and all the values under it would be from the table tbleqESG.
What am I doing wrong such that it is returning all the values under the header DPTag?

I have a query that i can type in an item number and it Sums all the locations and tells me how many i have in the building. If i do not have any in the building then there is no record of it in the table and comes back blank. How do i make it show a show 0 instead of blank if there is no records to sum?

I have a query that is showing two results for one product and I have no clue why. I have my tables in a one to many relationship and if I click on the + it shows the correct data for the product in question. Im guessing I have my table set up wrong its the only thing I can think of.
The table tbl_Carton has two entrys for a product (Flex Tape 2-1/16") (Product_PKEY #21) mabe I have it set up wrong? If I run my (qry_Switchboard ) and enter (21) its giving me an extra result for each of the two results thats suposed to be there.why?

I am running Access 2013. I have created a search form with about 10 different categories from a single table. I will only show 5 fields for this example The form is called FrmSearch with
Description
CarNum
SerialNum
Category
Condition
In the query, I have the criteria, Like "*" & [Forms]![FrmSearch]![description] & "*" and have this same criteria for all fields with the proper text field entry. (CarNum, serialnum, category, etc)
The problem I have is that I have over 200 items listed in the Description column but only 2 entries in the CarNum column. When I run the search with nothing in the FrmSearch, it should show all data but it only shows the 2 CarNum. If I put something in the Description, only the two items that show CarNum. I tried to use Is Null and Is Not Null but still doesn't work. I take out the "Like" criteria from the CarNum and it works. So, it seems that it does not pull up all the records because the CarNum has empty fields.

Sales will make calls and record data using a form (frmEnquirySpeak) which will save to tblSpeak. If the call results in a meeting being booked then it also updates tblMeeting with a date of the meeting (simple stuff so far!).
A sales person might record up to 14 types of action per day, qrySpeakPerAction counts the different types of call made on a day by day basis for reporting. qrySpeakGroupedAction summarises this down to 8 categories and applies a date filter selected on a reporting form (and this works well).
I now want to include the qryMeetingsBookedPerDay (counts m_date_raised and groups by m_date_raised...eg 2 on 24/12/14, 4 on 28/12/14 etc etc) with the qrySpeakGroupedAction...
My effort so far has resulted in only dates which appear on BOTH queries showing. This may not always be the case.
Every day calls will be made, this may or may not result in a meeting. So I see there being 2 options:
1 - Query to show the count of calls on a date or date range and number of meetings booked each day that calls are made (prefer this method, it sounds simpler)
2 - qryMeetingsBookedPerDay should auto populate days which dont appear as 0 (this sounds messy and not sure what capabilities/speed are like when managers want to spot patterns/trends over multiple years?)

I have a query (that gets it's data from several other queries) with a column called "max." The data in the column is correct, but when I call on the query in VBA, it shows me incorrect data.Here is where I call the query:
Code:
Dim db As DAO.Database, qdf As DAO.QueryDef, rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim strReport As String
Set db = CurrentDb()
Set qdf = db.QueryDefs("7-ErrorsReport")
qdf.Parameters(0) = Forms!frmmain!dt1.Value
qdf.Parameters(1) = Forms!frmmain!dt2.Value
qdf.Parameters(2) = Forms!frmmain!d2.Value
[code]....
The query looks at a table of employees and finds out if they have been issues a warning letter before, then prints out a corresponding report based on the "max" warning level they are at.The problem arises when an employee graduates from a 6 month probation period - all letters in that period should be ignored. As i said, they are ignored correctly when i run and view my query ("7-ErrorsReport") because they are filtered out at that point, but for some reason when this code runs, it somehow sees the previously issued letters which are stored in a table and likely in some of the other queries.
I am not sure if there is some issue with the query tree I have set up which is necessary to get the results I need, or if something is wacked with the was I am using it as a recordsource.

Access 2010. This has worked before but I don't understand why this is not working for me now. When i select an item in a combo box in a form and click on a button to run a query with the results, the query is blank. If I run the query alone, it prompts for an item, I can type it in and it works. I have even tried the DoCmd on the combo box but still same results. Attached is a dummy down DB. If you run the query, it will prompt, select Paper or Rock, see results. But run the form, the drop down will not show the results. What am I missing?

I am trying to create a query to find missing sequential numbers in a text field. I am using this specific field as a case number which is designated as two letters, the # sign, two digits indicating the year, a dash, and then a four digit number; For Example: AB#13-1234.
The reason for this query is to tell the user of this database that a specific case number has yet to be entered and needs to be. The case numbers are unique and will never be referenced more than once.
My table name is "MainDataTbl" and the field i'm trying to find the missing case numbers is titled "CaseNumber".

I have a large database which runs various reports however i am struggling with the last bit to get this report working.
Under each "Works Order" is a set of scrap which is associated with this batch. Instead of rows of data i would like to add all the "reason for scrap" to a single text box for each works order:
i.e. WO: 259953 | Scrap: Sub contract inner open; Untraceable short; short to plane etc etc.
I have attached an image in its current format.

I have some code in my database that will open a form based on the result of , I think, a union query.
Private Sub resultbox_DblClick(Cancel As Integer)
'Open report based on the ID from resultbox listbox
DoCmd.OpenReport "ResultsStan", acViewReport, , "[ID] = " & Me.resultbox, , acDialog
'End If
End sub
What I need to do is open one of a number of reports. The report that needs to be opened depends on another value that is passed from the union query - DOCCAT
Being still a bit of a novice I tried...
'If "[DOCCAT]= " & Me.resultbox Like "Standards" Then
DoCmd.OpenReport "ResultsStan", acViewReport, , "[ID] = " & Me.resultbox, , acDialog
'End If
Needless to say it didn't work.

I have a table that has several fields including CallID (autonumber) and SKU (text)
SKU can be anything up to 9 characters, sometimes numeric sometimes alphanumeric. For example: 24300, AA23145, G58d444, 24999, 89332,...
Based on the Count of CallID I can easily get the top20 calls on each SKU. This is the query I use for that:
Code:
SELECT TOP 20 Count(Calls.CallID) AS CountOfCallID, Calls.SKU
FROM Calls
GROUP BY Calls.SKU
HAVING ((Not (Calls.SKU) Is Null))
ORDER BY Count(Calls.CallID) DESC;
The problem is that now I have been asked to create two different lists. One that has the top 20 SKU that range from 24520 and 24599 and another one that does the res tof the SKUs.
Obviously my problem is that the SKU field is text, not numbers so I can't just limit the results in the query by using "Between 24520 and 24500" in the query criteria.

Ok so in excel I have some numbers that are stored as text. The reason being that they are zip codes and some begin with 0 and excel doesn't want numbers to start with 0....so when I import these into an access field that has an input mask for zip codes...will it convert these correctly since the field is a text with input mask?

I have two database tables, one of information of members and one of staff. I want to do a query to show all members and staff that have the title of 'Mr' in the database.
There are only 5 staff details in my staff database at the moment, all with the title 'Mr'. There are 20 members details, 13 with the title 'Mr'. When i run the query i get only 8 names, 4 from the staff and 4 from the members.
The 4 staff ones i get are the 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 4th records.
The first record of the members field does not have the title 'Mr' and so it appears that this is blocking the first staff one to appear. And the members stop appearing after the 5th record too, so it appears they are stopped as there are no more staff records.
I hope this makes some sense to you, and if anyone could tell me how to get all the records to appear that would be great. Thanks.

Hi
I have a query which is made up of several other queries that total different fields (these are a base for a report) sometimes one of the queries will be empty and then the whole query is blank, how can I return 0 when there are no records to count in 1 query so that the results from the others still show?
Thanks

I have a Inventory DB and i want to integrate scanning. So far i have a table called StockInfo, this table holds information about bar codes (device type, make, model). I have a form called Scan_Barcode, on this form I want to be able to scan a bar code into a text box (text0) and use a afterupdate and requery function to display the results onto a form called EnterInventory.
Not only just the results but I want certain columns from the query to display in certain text boxes on this form. I have a query called FindProduct. that filters the criteria by whats entered on the Scan_Barcode text box (text0). So when i scan a certain bar code i can get the query to display certain product information for the bar code. I just cant get the results onto the HarwareStock form.

Does anyone know how to do a query so that the user can find all the things that will expiry at the end of the current month?
The user will click on a command button and it will show the results of a product that will expiry at the end of a current month.
Have tried with parameters to which the user manually types the end date in and then it will show the results but having problems.
Cheers

SELECT Training.ID, Training.StaffPIN, Training.Module, Training.DatePassed, Training.DateExp, Training.Comments
FROM TrainingModules INNER JOIN Training ON TrainingModules.[TrngModule] = Training.[Module]
WHERE (((Training.StaffPIN)=[Forms]![TrainingFrm]![StaffPIN]));
Does anyone know why this query isn't working? It doesn't throw an error, it's just not showing any records.
The only thing I can think of is:
Training.StaffPIN is a long int
When it prompts me for [Forms]![TrainingFrm]![StaffPIN] I enter '12177' in the message box, is that taken to be an int or is it actually a text string?
It might not be this as when I use the form [TrainingFrm] to pass the perameter, it's taken from a combobox ([StaffPIN]) where it IS an int, and the query is still blank. :confused:
TrainingModules is a table that stores all the possible modules or subjects that a member of staff can be trained in
Training is a table that stores which staff member has passed which module or subject.
I want the query to pull all the info on a staff member from Training to be later used as a subform.

I'm having multiple problems with my database like things such as -
i'm currently working on the Query 2 - On the Phone database (ignore Query 1) and i want to search for multiple plot numbers preferably in one parameter prompt with a comma to seperate numbers. (this could be a multitude of numbers so i would like to be able to input as many as needed). Also when i do search on this query since the Criteria is a 'Between' Value i would expect everything between the 2 numbers input to show up - but a lot of numbers out of the range show up too - why is this? (The Numbers are like "69 to 136" and they will show up - but 1-69 and 136-170 would too
I would also like to implement the search results from Query 2 into the Form i currently have made but it just opens up a access table when the search is made?
i cannot link my database as it is too big for the server - But here are the Criteria for Query 2:
Plot No - (criteria = Between [Enter First Plot No:] And [Enter Last Plot No:])
Site - (criteria = Like "*" & [Enter Site:] & "*")
Product - (criteria = Like "*" & [Enter Product:] & "*"
The Query is the one im most concerned about , i can live without a form.

I have googled and search for this subject and am more confused now...
I am running an offline A03 db with XP and have a hosted website. Right now I have a separate db online that is used for the results on the website, and it works correctly. I used frontpage to create the form.
Now with our offline db I would like to enter the information on a form, and have the results show up on our website, to avoid keying the same info multiple times.
The data that shows up on the website will not be edited, but the table offline will have some fields for edit, that will not show up online.
Is there a way to connect an offline table/query to show up as results online? And if so how or examples? Thanks in advance.
