I'm not really looking for code, just a clue as to what to read up on as I have been beating my head against the wall with this one. I can do it in about three steps but I am trying to do it in one. :confused:
The first table1 is like this:
id Field1 Field2 Field3
1 TagNo44 Y Yes
2 TagNo5 C No
3 TagNo127 Q Maybe
4 TagNo4 T Perhaps
5 TagNo88 Z Probably Not
6 TagNo17 P Could be
The second table2 is like this:
id Field1 Field2 Field3
1 TagNo44 Outfit6 30
2 TagNo44 Outfit14 70
3 TagNo127 Outfit14 100
4 TagNo4 Outfit3 100
5 TagNo88 Outfit3 50
6 TagNo88 Outfit8 50
7 TagNo5 Outfit7 100
8 TagNo17 Outfit92 100
Output table to be like this
id Field1 Field2
4 TagNo4 Outfit3&100
2 TagNo5 Outfit7&100
6 TagNo17 Outfit92&100
1 TagNo44 Outfit14&70&Outfit6&30
5 TagNo88 Outfit3&50&Outfit8&50
3 TagNo127 Outfit14&100
Table1Field1 is in a one to many relationship to table2.field1
All fields are strings.
hi friends, i have tried had to connect sub type tabels (Saving, Checking, Loan... they have their own ids...) with super type (Account...it has account id...) on the condition of account_type (either "S","C" or "L") attribute in ACCOUNT entity. how to joint them??? with query or with expression?? i expect help from you.........please. ........thanks.
This is a bit confusing, so I'll try to explain it well.
Two tables. One has a list of metals. The other has a list of submetals, and what basic type of metal it is. It's grabbing the second column from the first table. Makes sense, right?
Now, I have another table, with links to both of those fields. What I want it to do is when it picks the metal type, to filter the subgroup to only the types it has associated with it to the basic metal type. Not sure if that makes sense. I'll supply an example.
Table 1 Aluminum Brass Copper
Table 2 Subgroup Basic group License Plate Aluminum Iron Aluminum Aluminum Yellow Brass Brass Copper Wire Copper
Now, if in Table 3, they choose Aluminum from the drop down box for basic metal, I want the dropdown box for the subgroup to have only License plate, and Iron Aluminum. For Brass, only Yellow Brass, and the same for copper.
I have a query that is trying to match two tables, one in MSSQL2000 and the other in Access 2003. The matching field in MSSQL is a Text field and in Access the field is a long integer. When I try to run the query it gives a Type Mismatch error.
I've tried all the functions that I can see to convert either of the fields data types but to no avail.
But field1's data type is Number and Field2 is Text. (Field1 is fed by a lookup table). Am I doomed to go through the 700 or so by hand, gurus, please?
in "InternalCall" there is either a "0" or a "1", these represent external and internal calls
So I want to turn the "1" and "0" into "internal" and "external"
I've done half of it, but I can't use an "else if" statement in the query, the only other option is to have one field for internal and one box for external with seperate iif statements which I want to stay away from...
I am trying to do a basic query and I keep getting a "Type Mismatch" error and the query will not run. If I only do a query on one table, it works no problem so I know it must be related to my Join between tables.
For the two tables that are joined (it is one-to-many)- the first table is a clients table and I created a field called ClientNumber that is an AutoNumber. The second table is called TrainingRequests. This will store the training requests for each client and each client can have multiple training requests. I created a field called ClientNumber in it as well (this is what field I linked the tables by). But I set it to text instead of AutoNumber.
Is there a way to do a query with the two tables? Or will I have to change something in table design? I already have some data in the tables so I am not sure what direction to take.
Thanks for any help someone can provide. It would be greatly appreciated.
I'm sure this must be an easy one, I haven't used access for years and I've forgot how to do everything.
I'm designing a query based on a linked table which belongs to someone else. Unfortunately they appear to have stored a cost value (eg. 12030.30) as text.
I need to group the table records together and sum the cost value but I can't because its a text data type. Can anyone help me convert the data type within the query so that I can sum the costs, I've tried to build the expression using the cdbl() function but got stuck when it asked me for a parameter.....
I've been struggling with this for awhile now. I've been trying to research a solution but I'm not even sure what to search for.I have the following table structure:tblContactsContact_ID (PK)First_NameLast_NametblBidPackBid_Pack_ID (PK)Bid_Pack_DescriptiontblDistributionListList_ID (PK)Bid_Pack_ID (FK) (1-M)Contact_ID (FK) (1-M)What I would like to do is create a query to display all of the contacts from tblContacts that are not associated with a certain Bid_Pack_ID. My end goal is to create a form where I enter Distribution List Information. I want a listbox on the left with all of the contacts from tblContacts and a listbox on the right with contacts that have been selected for a particular Bid_Pack. When the user double clicks an item on the left it should show up on the right and be removed from the left. I'm looking for the same functionality as when you use the design wizard and you choose fields to include/exclude.For example, let's say I want to add contacts for distribution list "A". My thought is the box on the left would show all the contacts from tblContacts that aren't selected for distribution list "A" and the box on the right would show all of the contacts that are part of distribution list "A". As you double click an entry it would perform the appropriate record creation/deletion and each box would be required.So back to my original question, what is the correct method (relationship, join, querydef) to select all of the contacts from tblContacts that haven't been assocatied with a particular bid pack?Thanks for any help you can provide. Even a nudge in the right direction would be appreciated.
ID (Type Text) Title (Type Text) Remarks(Type Text) Formatted: FormatTitle([title],[Remarks]) Expr1: InStrRev([Formatted], "~")
public functionFormatTitle(ByVal sTitle as String, ByVal sRemarks as String) as String 'do process code here very complicated an long, but works find in the end 'creates a Multi-String delimited by | (pipe) end function
The above works, and Expr1 does give an accurate value for the position of a "~" (tilde) in the string Created by the FormatTitle() function.
However, If I put a Criteria >0 on Expr1 it asks for the value of the [Formatted] field as if it was a parameter. If I put a criteria for Formatted: Like "*~*" I get a Data Type Mismatch in Query Criteria
This Query Also produces the Data Type Mismatch in Query Criteria pardon me, but WTF? If it isn't a STring, than InStrRev() should produce an error, not an accurate response, and if InStrRev() produces a number why can't i compare it to 0 (zero)? This is indubitably messed up that I'm getting this error. There is no data type mismatch, on either of these tests, one is a string and I criteria-limit it by a string operation, the other is a number and I criteria limit it by a number, WHAT IS GOING ON!!!
Thanks Jaeden "Sifo Dyas" al'Raec Ruiner - The Frustratedly Confused
Apologies for imposing on you all but I was wondering whether or not you could help me out??
Would you be so kind as to kind as to show me a practical example of how to incorporate a facility into my attached Database which serves to select an equal ratio of my field “SectionHeadings” such that out of the 30 “random” questions that it currently generates it will provides me on completion with the following:
5 From Set1 5 From Set2 5 From Set 3 …..etc etc
It currently generates the 30 questions that I need without a problem; however it routinely selects any number of one particular type, sometimes more from one subject and less of another.
All subjects headings are of equal importance to me and as a consequence would be very grateful if you could look at what I’ve already done and show me what needs to be done in order to achieve my aim.
I hope my request is possible - Any help you could give me would be very much appreciated. Thank you very much.
Working with two tables - tbl_A_OrdData & tbl_B_ShipData tbl_A have all the orders placed, but tbl_B only have the orders that got shipped. I'm trying to create a query that will show me all orders that got placed for a particular criteria and if the order find a match in tbl_B to give me the ship date too. A left joint query get me the data I need. But my dates are in YYYYMMDD number format so in the query I am putting the DateValue function. And that error out as "data type mismatch" because it cannot find the shipdate for certain records. I tried this but didnt work. ShipDt: IIf (IsNull ([PSHPDT]), "", DateValue(Mid([PSHPDT],5,2) & "/" & Right([PSHPDT],2) & "/" & Left([PSHPDT],4)))
I have a table with a field with names set to text data type and i want to change it to number data type but when i do it in design view the data get lost. I want to know if there is a way to convert the data in the field as number type and keep the data in the field.
I have a list of PC SN#s in tbl1; I have a list of other PC SN#s in tbl2 I want to display ALL records of tbl1, AND ALL records of tbl2, matching up the SN#s (where there is a match) - but I want to display all records whether they match or not.
SELECT SubscheduleID, EventID, WeekOrder, DayID, StartTime, EndTime, Priority, CanJoin, PatientTitle, PatientNickname, IncludesPatient, IncludesAftercare, Letter1 FROM [qryScheduleCombinedDetails] WHERE (SubscheduleID = 1 AND IncludesPatient = -1 AND DuringAftercare <> "AC only" AND (WeekOrder = "All" OR WeekOrder = 3 OR (WeekOrder = 1 AND Letter1 = "XYZ")) AND DayID = 2 AND StartTime <= #8:00:00 AM# AND EndTime >= #8:30:00 AM#);
When I try to run it, I get a "data type mismatch" error. When I put the same code into a query, I get the same error. However, it will run if I delete either condition from within the (WeekOrder = 1 AND Letter1 = "XYZ") pairing. I can't figure why it can run with either of those, but not both together.
WeekOrder is defined as String. Letter1 is calculated as Cstr(Nz(IIf(Letter,"XYZ","ABC"))) within [qryScheduleCombinedDetails], because I wanted to make sure that it would be recognized as a string.
Here's my Goal: To open a saved query that has a parameter, setting that parameter via a VBA sub.
Here's my Problem: I was getting various errors, but after debugging my program a bit, it comes down to a "Data Type Conversion Error"
Here's my Code:
Set db = CurrentDb Set qd = db.QueryDefs("qryMY_DATA") qd.Parameters(0) = Me.txt_ReferenceID Set rs = qd.OpenRecordset("qryMY_DATA", dbDynaset)
Code: '*** Database Variables Dim db As DAO.Database, rs As DAO.Recordset, gq As DAO.QueryDef, prm As DAO.Recordset
I've been all over the forums and tried several different approaches, all to no avail. The Query runs fine in the QDT, but kicks back an error when I try to run it from my sub.
I have 4 queries in which data needs to be connected from the date and shown as a single date showing each sections entry in a row and a cumulative total is maintained as the balance .
I'm receiving an error indicating there is a data type mismatch when running a query named qappInventoryTakeOn.
Data is entered into the Inventory Transaction Form. If the transaction type is "Take On", when the update button is clicked the record will be saved to tblInventoryMovements and then qappInventoryTakeOn should run to update tblInventory, but I keep running into the aforementioned error.
I have an update query for tGLCashAccount where it adds a value from another table with the BeginningBalance to arrive at CurrentBalance.
Here's what it looks like in design view:
Field: CurrentBalance Table: tGLCashAcct Update to: [tMakeNewCashBal].[TotalPrice]+[tGLCashAcct].[BeginningBalance]
Here is SQL code: UPDATE tGLCashAcct, tMakeNewCashBal SET tGLCashAcct.CurrentBalance = [tMakeNewCashBal].[TotalPrice]+[tGLCashAcct].[BeginningBalance] WHERE (((tGLCashAcct.GLCashAcctID)="102"));
I get the error: data type mismatch in criteria expression when I run it.
I found the attached example a while back (can't find the site again though ) and it calculates a moving average. I've hacked out the parts I need for my own work and I can create my moving average query without an issue.
However, I need to extract the MA data into a table so planned on using append. I kept getting type errors so I tried make table to see what type it was creating and it appears to be Short Text rather than a number.
I've added an extra button and Make Table query to the example.
As far as I can tell from the code, the moving average value when calculated is a Single. However, when I write it to the table, its a Short Text.
How do I make the created Table use Number Type for my calculated moving average?
I want to be able to type a nickname for a contact and it populate the full name in a query for a report. Is there a way to effectively get this done? I have tried combo box and I am not sure how to use the drop down list function.
I am trying to construct a crosstab that averages a calculated field from a previous query. It is returning a "Data Type Mismatch" message.
The field I am trying to average is a subtraction of dates to find total days. I assume my field is not a number so I have tried to wrap it in CDbl() to change the type.
The formula is
Code: CASE_DAYS: CDbl(IIf([Actual Close Date]-[Creation Date]>=0,[Actual Close Date]-[Creation Date],""))
