WHERE *='blah' ----- How Would You Make This Work?
Mar 22, 2006
Hi Guys,
I basically want an SQL statement that will search all fields of a table for a certain value. At first I thought that tihs might work..
Code:SELECT * FROM tblExample WHERE *='blah';
But it doesnt :-/
So, is there any other method of doing this? I know that I could just include each individual field name, but Im lazy - and its a big table (plus I want to use a similar query on a few other tables, so I want it to be fairly generic).
My db works well, it has been compressed/repaired & the code complied without any problems until I convert it to an Mde :confused:
The problem I have is that for some reason three of my sub forms will not function properly without getting this on click warning
The expression on Click you entered as the event property setting produced the following error:The expression you entered refers to an object that is closed or doesn't exist.
Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) encountered a problem while attempting to access a property or method. The problem may be one of the following: A reference is missing. For help restoring missing references, see the Microsoft Knowledge Base article 283806. An Expression is misspelled. Check all expressions used in event properties for correct spelling. A user-defined function is declared as a sub or as a private function in a module. Expressions can resolve a user-defined function only if the function is declared as one of the following: - A public function in a module - A public or private function in a code module of the current form or report Security in Access is set to Medium or High and the Microsoft Jet 4.0 SP8 update is not installed. A more recent verion of Jet 4.0 must be installed for Access to function properly when security is set to Medium or High. To obtain the latest version of Microsoft Jet, go to Windows Update.
I don't understand why there is a problem if it works fine without converting it to a Mde.
The 3 subforms do have one thing in common though
they have a cmd button that moves the focus to another object on the form & then the subforms visibility is set to false.
[Private Sub CmdClose_Click()
On Error GoTo 0 'Err_cmdClose_Click If DCount("*", "tblTaskScheduleRates", "[SRLINKTask] = " & Me.Parent.TaskID) = 0 Then Me.Parent.frmFlashRates.Visible = True Me.Parent.cmdViewRates.Visible = True
If DCount("*", "qrySubbyFlash", "[TaskID] = " & Me.Parent!TaskID) > 0 Then Me.Parent!cboTaskStatus = Me.Parent!cboTaskStatus.ItemData(1) Else Me.Parent!cboTaskStatus = Me.Parent!cboTaskStatus.ItemData(0) End If
If DCount("*", "qryOperativeFlash", "[TTLINKTask] = " & Me.Parent!TaskID) > 0 Then Me.Parent!cboTaskStatus = Me.Parent!cboTaskStatus.ItemData(1) End If
End Sub
Private Sub cmdSave_Click()
If DCount("*", "tblTaskMessage", "[TMLINKTask] = " & Me.Parent.TaskID) = 0 Then Me.Parent.frmFlashMessage.Visible = True Me.Parent.cmdViewMessages.Visible = True End If Me.Parent.cmdNotes.SetFocus Me.Parent.frmTaskMessageSubForm.Visible = False Me.Parent.frmTaskMessageViewSubForm!lstMessages.Re query Me.Parent!lstRevisedCost.Visible = True
End Sub
it works just fine as a normal database but for some reason it causes problems as an Mde.
this DB should transfer records from table to another table and vice versa, somehow i cannot make the other command button works. it took me a week to figure it out what is wrong with the code.
pls help me with my DB.
Somebody out there!
ill attached the DB if someone replies my request.
Ive been trying to make a form that has a report list for filtering. Everything I research and do just isnt working for me. Ive followed a video about it and visited these sites.

Hi, all! I need some help. I am trying to figure out how to enable the subdatasheet in my subform. I've already told the root query to include the subdatasheet, and it works. My subform only allows datasheet view, and I've enabled the subdatasheet visible property in the subform. What am I missing? I really need it to show up. It would be SO cool if it would work. Thanks!
The user currently manual checks the Use Part? box but would I would like to automate with an update query. I have this query that needs to be updatable but has a group by and min to get the correct results. I plan to run this query by another update query to update the table, but its currently not updatable. Is there a workaround or does anyone have another scheme to go at it. Here is my current queries.
SELECT [t_BOM Part Cross].[Customer ID], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Assembly #], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Quote #], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Line #], Min([t_BOM Part Cross].[Alt Unit 1]) AS [MinOfAlt Unit 1], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Use Part?] FROM [t_BOM Part Cross] GROUP BY [t_BOM Part Cross].[Customer ID], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Assembly #], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Quote #], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Line #], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Use Part?] HAVING ((([t_BOM Part Cross].[Quote #])=[FORMS]![Parameter]![Quote #]) AND ((Min([t_BOM Part Cross].[Alt Unit 1]))>0)) ORDER BY [t_BOM Part Cross].[Customer ID], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Assembly #], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Quote #];
I have another query that I used a SUB SELECT ON THE [Alt Unit 1] but does not group the other fields to get the results but it is updatable.
SELECT [t_BOM Part Cross].[Quote #], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Line #], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Alt Unit 1], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Use Part?] FROM [t_BOM Part Cross] WHERE ((([t_BOM Part Cross].[Quote #])=[FORMS]![Parameter]![Quote #]) AND (([t_BOM Part Cross].[Alt Unit 1])>(SELECT MIN([Alt Unit 1])>0 FROM [t_BOM Part Cross]))) ORDER BY [t_BOM Part Cross].[Quote #], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Line #];
how I can make an Array and For Each statement work together. I normally don't use either, but it would be good so I could write less code where plausible. Here is the example I have:
Code: Dim Named As Variant Dim Ctl As Control Named = Array(Me.Namee, Me.ID, Me.Title)
[code]....
I am unsure how I include the array in this statement. I have tried replacing "Me.Controls" with the array name, but I get a 424 runtime error (no object). What I am trying to accomplish is for each item in the array I want to make it not visible if it has a null value.
How do I make the windows default navigation work to the following:-Next record that navigates to next, but does not create a new record when at EOF. New record that creates a new record.
I've tried turning off 'Allow additions' for the form, but that turns off the 'New Record' button, so that's not right Perhaps it's me but the default way in which the navigation buttons work is strange. I would have thought the next button would only go next and wouldn't do new.
We are creating a simple database to maintain driver license information for faculty, staff, and students who use cars from the university’s motor pool.
To do this, I have created two tables: tblDRIVER and tblLICENSE.
The fields in tblDRIVER are: pkfDriverIndex strLastName strFirstName strInitial strAddress1 strAddress2 strCity strState strZIP datBirthDate
The fields in tblLICENSE are: pkfUpdateIndex fkfDriverIndex datDateUpdated strState strLicNumber datExpirationDate ynViolations ynActive
Information about the driver is stored in tblDRIVER and the driver’s license information is stored in tblLICENSE. Periodically, we run a report that identifies drivers whose licenses are due to expire within a certain number of days. All this works fine.
My problem is that I am trying to create a lookup form that will load from a data entry form that will permit the Motor Pool Clerk to look up a driver by name and review the licensing information (which appears as a subform).
All this sort of works- I am using a combo box (based on a query) to look up a driver’s last name (which it does) and to populate all the driver’s information on the look-up form (including license information in a subform). Currently, the combo box locates the driver (including the unique index, last, and first names), and populates the form with first and last name but the rest of the information is not displayed on the look up form. Worse still, sometimes one driver’s last name matches up with the first name of the next driver listed in the table! This seems to happen only if a look up is attempted more than once. What gives.
I have an expression in one column of my query and It keeps returning a negative result and there are no negative numbers in the source data. Can anyone help. I just want to sum the sums the two IIf expressions, but its not working. Thanks
Other Qty: Sum(IIf([QSum]![ACCOUNT]=2 And [QSum]![ICUNIT]=95 And [QSum]![UNITS]="ITEM(S)",[QSum]![QUANT],Null)) Or Sum(IIf([QSum]![ACCOUNT]=2 And [QSum]![ICUNIT]=100 And [QSum]![UNITS]="ITEM(S)",[QSum]![QUANT],Null))
I'm currently working with a form, which is in datasheet view. I have many rows which are combo boxes (yes/no), and the name is rather long. So each line (each row) spreads on to 2-3 pages to the right.What I would like to do is make the namebar, on top of every column, a little bit higher, so the name would be split into two lines, or three. Allowing me to make the width allot smaller.Here is an example of my problem:http://213.213.137.96/~terminal/columns.jpgSo my question is, can I change the height of the column name? Or is there some trick I can use?regardsFrímann Kjerúlf
Would it be ok just to make a copy of the BE file (every so often) rather than to make a copy via code?The user can then just paste over the original if it becomes corrupt.
I’m a newbie to Access, I have done some simple things but I now have to do something that is out of my league.
I work in an engineering company and I'm trying to make a database that the engineers can select a specification quickly, a specification or spec is like a table. Things like materials, ratings, pipe Schedule, etc are stored in it. The spec says how strong a pipe will be.
When selecting a spec you have to look at the service (what the pipe is caring, eg high pressure steam, or low pressure water). Services also store things like Design Temperature and Design Pressure.
You are giving the Service, and you have to select a spec that will be able to handle the Design pressures. To do this you compare the Design pressure to the Maximum allowable Pipe pressure (it is calculated at the join (flange) as this is the weakest point).
One other pike of information is the Tables that have the Maximum allowable Pressure. To find the Maximum allowable Pressure, you need to know the Material, Rating and the Design Temperature. Each material has its own table.
If you have a look at the attached file then in tables, SPec has Spec ID (Spec) which is Primary Key. Flange Material (FlangeMat) and Flange Rating (FlangeRating).
The Flange Material should take you to another table, FlangeMat. This table is used to get you to the correct Maximum allowable Pressure table.
There are 2 Maximum allowable Pressure Tables, TABLE_211 and TABLE 212. Here the rest of the information from the Spec is needed (Flange Rating (these are the field names with 150, 300, 1500, etc numbers)). And also the Design Temperature is needed of the service.
Then it looks up the Maximum allowable Pressure from the Table and displays it. I was thinking a form.
Also the design Pressure needs to be displayed so the engineer can compare the two.
So for the form, there will need to be a drop down that has the Service, A drop down that has the Spec, and the two values, the Design Pressure and the Maximum allowable pressure.
All I have done is shown on the file, I started to play around with the Relationships and tried to create a Form but I could not get it to work so. I deleted it and left it with just the tables. If possible can someone please help me, maybe even get my file to work and the post the working one, I will then be able to understand it.
The company I work for uses A97 throughout. Although on my laptop I have Access 2003. I want to design my inventory control database using A2003 not 97 for obvious reasons. I know A97 users cannot open a Acess 2003 db.My Q is: If I created a A2003 db and also built some data access pages within the database and placed it on my server, could users view/add/edit records in the db via these pages using their web browsers? This would only be required across our small network of less than 10 users.Any advise welcome. Even just a YES or NO would help Many thanks.
I need to create some conditional formatting on a field that will change the colour depending on how much money has been spent
I have MaxBilling As the Field I want to attach the condition formatting too which can be a user entered value or system updated depending on other things.
The Current worked costs total field Is Called Text119.
when a project starts The Cost will be 0 so I don't intend to assign a colour there.
when the Costs get to 50% of MaxBilling I would like to change the colour to Green
70% Chances to yellow 90% Would change to Dark Red
I can do most things but %'s and me don't mix well LOL
I have two database which are very similar. They both use the same back end table. I have a query that I developed in one db and it works correctly there. However, when I import it into the other db, I get the Ambiguous Outer Joins message. I've tried copying the SQL from one and pasting it into the other and that didn't help. I've checked the table used and they are all properly linked in the second db. Any ideas about what could be going on?
I have created a query thats initiated by a command button from a form and one of the criteria for the query is a 'Like' command.
On the form, various option buttons and combi-boxes determine the search criteria and put it into a hidden textbox. Then, the query is run based on the contents of that hidden textbox using 'Like'.
However, I cant seem to get the 'Like' command to work with the contents of the hidden [forms]![frmSearch].[txtSearchcriteria] field.
Do I need to edit the VB code on the form to format the text to include the Like '* prefix and *' suffix, or should my search box remain basic text and have the Like command in the query ??
I seem to have tried loads of variations incorporating the various components of the Like command (the asterisks, single quote marks and even the Like command itself) on either the Form field or query but nothing seems to work. Anyone have any ideas ??
I have a form with two textbox, when I type something in textbox, the second textbox is filled with database query "SELECT MAX...", this works in one PC but doesnt work in other...
