Unmatched Query To Find Changed Info Between Tables
Aug 24, 2012
I am importing the updated Employee Roster information from Excel to a table called "Weekly Roster Check" (contains new info). I have a table called "Current Chit Board" that has an Employee Roster that I update every week (contains old info). I want a query to find employees who are promoted and their title has changed. then I want to run an update query to update these results to the Current Chit Board table.
Every method I try, returns either no information or information that is not what I want.
I need constructing a find unmatched query. I don't really know what I'm doing with SQL and I think that I can only take things so far with query design view.
I have two tables. T_Productions and ProPro (see attached). In Access query design, I can only specify one matching criteria. I need a query that will show me records from T_Productions that don't have matching Production_Code (PpNum in ProPro), Avantage_Product_Code (PpPrNum in ProPro) and Step (PpEtape in ProPro) in ProPro.
What I have now only gives me the records where Avantage_Product_Code don't match PpPrNum.
Code: SELECT T_Productions.ID, T_Productions.Production_Code, T_Productions.Avantage_Product_Code, T_Productions.Step, T_Productions.Quantity_Required FROM T_Productions LEFT JOIN ProPro ON T_Productions.[Avantage_Product_Code] = ProPro.[PpPrNum] WHERE (((ProPro.PpPrNum) Is Null));
I need to design an unmatched query on 2 tables to identify employees names that exist in 1 table but not the other (or names are misspelled, etc.). The tables exist in on a server and I do not have the ability to change either. Table 1 has the following structure:
EMPLOYEE NAME: Doe, John ID-12345 Table 2 has the following structure: LAST NAME: Doe FIRST NAME: John
Since the field names are not equal, the unmatched query wizard (as far as I know) will not work. I've tried using "NOT LIKE", LEFT JOINS, RIGHT JOINS, NUll Values, etc. in the SQL but nothing has worked as yet.Here's the SQL I've been working with but this returns all values (haven't figured out why):
SELECT DISTINCT [Table 1].[EMPLOYEE NAME] FROM [Table 1], Table 2 WHERE ((([Table 1].[EMPLOYEE NAME]) Not Like "([Table 2].[LAST NAME]*"));
I thought this would be relatively simple task to complete but its proving tricky.
I have two tables with the same data: E1 and E2
E1 has two columns and is as follows
A 1 B 2 C 3 D 4
E2 is similar except for one record '5'
A 1 B 2 C 5 D 4
Now the task is to show those records that do not match...in this instance
E1.Field1 E1.Field2 E2.Field2 C 3 5
Now I've used the find unmatched wizard and this is the SQL: SELECT E1.Field1, E1.Field2, E2.Field2 FROM E1 LEFT JOIN E2 ON E1.Field2 = E2.Field2 WHERE (((E2.Field2) Is Null));
this is giving me partially the right answer as in E1.Field1 E1.Field2 E2.Field2 C 3
I have an access database with several linked tables (linked to MySQL database) and several local tables. The theory is that if there's ever a connection issue, the device connected to the computer will continue logging data to the local tables. Once a connection is re-established, the linked tables should be updated with all the missing records which appear on the local tables.
I found several possibilities which I outlined below, but I've been asked to investigate whether there's a built in function in access that does this for you and use the other options as a last resort. Does access have any program feature that updates one table with missing data from another table, or will I have to write VBA code to do that? Options I've discovered:
1) Write unmatched query and insert missing data into table.
2) Create a linked table on MySQL that will link to the local tables on access, then compare the records there.The boss isn't happy with those options because he wants to keep the amount of code we add to a minimum. Ultimately, we hope that a program feature that does this is built in to access. If not, I have no problem adding code to do this instead.
I just can't figure out how to solve my next problem. What I need to do is to make a query showing all the country's next to germany(nr.5) with their capitals. There are three tables which I can use, nr.1 showing the country_id's with their "neighbour country's", nr.2 showing the name of the country's with their capital_id's and nr.3 showing the name of the capital with their corresponding country-id. Is there anybody who could help me with this problem, or has some suggestions? If you find this message unclear, i would love to e-mail you the tables. As i am dutch my english isn't that good. Thanks in advance
i have a columns as 1. contactname, 2. firstname 3. lastname 4. email and in this columns some emails are not matching with the contactname or some time firstname or some time lastname so i need the to find out the un matched contacts from the database.
I have many queries for separate types of income that when criteria is entered on the switchboard, a report is created for either a specific month or range of dates. This works fine. Now I need to create one report that shows all 7 types of income in one spot, but once again based on a specific month or range of dates. I have a query that produces the entire income for all dates, but can't get it narrowed down to the specific criteria.
Hi guys. For my coursework I was told I need complex queries to gian high grades.
This is my problem: I have many many tables all identicle. They have the same field names just different information on them. I wanna be able ot query ALL those tables to bring 1 result which I will then make a report out of.
I have tried everything, I fidled with the relationship but can't understand it.
Oh, and the tables have been linked form excel. I know i can't edit it then, but i dont need to.
I would really really apretiate all responses as this needs to be done asap.
I have DB used for inventory for many different categories. I have a table and form for the following: Location, Printers, Pc's and many more.
What i am trying to accomplish is to have a advanced search form that will display how many pc's and there makes and model from selecting the location name or Cost center from a combo box.
So an example would be I want to select MPP-WDF from the combo box click a button and it will return the number of PC and there makes of model's and some other information in a list of records.
Hi all, im hoping someone can help. This is the problem.
I have 3 tables that have tax payer information for 1 year broken up into 4 months, 1 table for each 4 month chunk. all 3 tables mostly have the same taxpayers, but each table has payers that are not in 1 or both of the other tables. each table has a 2 part primary key, the business number is the first part, and branch number for businesses with chains. the next 4 fields are each month of taxes paid. heres the design of each table.
is there an easy way to merge all of this data into 1 table easily. ive tried using make table or append queries, but it only addes the information where the IDs are in each table. this leaves out the ids that are in only 1 or 2 tables.
if you need me to clarify or explain anything else, please let me know. i can post screenies or the design, but obviously, not the data.
I was able to create a query that selects records from one table that have several fields which don't match with another table.
The end-game with this query is to have it delete the records in table 1 that don't match records in table 2. The delete query tells me that it could not delete from specified tables.
I've attached the select query, the delete query and the error, and the relationship table for the db.
In Access 2010, I have a database with 2 tables "group" and "member". They have a many-to-one relationship with nultiple members per group. Group has identifier "ID" and Member has field "Group Code" that matches with "ID". Formerly we called this field "Bulgiin kod" but needed to translate it. When we changed "Bulgiin kod" to "Group Code", now when we expand the group records (click the + button next to the row) it gives "enter parameter value" box. I tried deleting the relationship and re-creating it but without success. If I change the Group Code back to its original value, everything works fine.
Here is another thing I noticed: if I enter the value of ID into the parameter value box, it just shows the entire Member table, regardless of the actual matches. So if I expand ID #15, and enter "15", the whole Member table displays under the record.
I have a SQL database with an Access front end that keeps giving me an error "The data has been changed... another user has edited the record.I'm the only user on it, and I'm trying to edit it directly from the table. I already checked my indexes and changed all the bits to ints.
I have a single table database for inventory. Every 3 months or so, some records get changed or updated. My manager wants to keep an archive of all of the records that have been changed so we can go back and look at an history of all of the records. So, My thought is to create an "Archive" table, appended all of the current records to it. Then, when changes are made, create an Append Query, or what ever works, to copy just the changed records from the Main to the Archive table. There are only 200 items in the inventory so it is not a large database.
I created a database with 10 tables and 8 relationships. Then, I learned about the Autonumber field type and decided that I wanted that to be the primary key of one of my existing tables, for a field that was already linked to 2 other tables. I had to delete the relationships and the original field to make the change, and Access said it had to delete an index, too. Now, Access won't allow me to re-establish those relationships.
I found that I had to change the fields in the other tables to match the Autonumber type and name of the original field, but now I am getting an error message stating, "Invalid field definition 'CustomerID' in definition of index or relationship. What does that mean? The field types and names are all the same.
Employees submit information into a form which translates the information into a table. The table has been in use for years. By accident some employees were writing to an archived table while others were writing the the active table. This resulted in a field called "WorkID" being duplicated across the two tables.
Bottom line I am trying to write a query finding duplicates across tables but basing the duplicate only on certain columns.
I Have made a change to a field in my tables. it was was based on ethnic background and originally i had just created the field but had not added in the options ( via adding it into the row sources).
So now the tables field have been updated but unfortunately on the form it has not updated into the dropdown i had created containing the options..
I created an unmatched query with the wizard and it works fine - when I want to compare with only one field. Is there anyway possible for it to compare two fields? I need for it to look at field1 and field2 when checking for unmatched records. Any ideas?
I have a query in an Access 2003 database that list fields from two tables. I want a query based on this query to pull out records where the interest rate does not match the PrimePlusMargin. See code below:
SELECT [95_1324].ACCOUNT, [95_1324].[CLIENT'S NAME], [95_1324].[OPEN DATE], [AR PlanDefinition].[ARL Plan], [95_1324].[Interest Rate], [AR PlanDefinition].Margin, 6 AS Prime, [Prime]+[Margin] AS PrimePlusMargin FROM 95_1324 INNER JOIN [AR PlanDefinition] ON [95_1324].[ARL Plan] = [AR PlanDefinition].[ARL Plan] ORDER BY [95_1324].[OPEN DATE] DESC;
I think I figured it out but it doesnt work completely. I created another field called "No Match" and set the criteria to "No Match" See code:
When I run the code, the pop up parameter asking for PrimePlusMargin. I know I spelled it correctly. If I just say ok, it returns all records. PrimePlusMargin is an alias field. Does this matter?
Many sessions can have many employees - thus the joining table has been included.
When trying to delete an employee from the database using a form, I encounter the error:
The record cannot be deleted or changed because table 'tblEmployeeSessions' includes related records
Is there a problem with my table relationship structure? Or is it 'correct' that as the employee is supervising a session he/she cannot be deleted as this would interfere and maybe mess up the session record?
In table 1 I have some document #s e.g. 320 321 322 170 171 172 151 152
In table 2 I have some document #s e.g. 170 171 151
I would like to create a query, that will look at the document #s starting with 17* and 15* in table 1 and look for it in table 2, if the document #s do not exist, I would like the query to spill out the following:
