How do I write a query to find the last audit date?
Let's say the table looks like this (year,company,audit date):
2004, Company1, 6/3/2004
2005, Company2, 2/2/2005
2006, Company3, 3/7/2006
2008, Company4, 3/2/2008
Let's say I want to add a new record (in the year 2010) and pull up the last audit date. How do I do that?
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 a form containing two memo fields - Fld_Note and Fld_History.
What I was aiming for is that when someone enters info into Fld_Note, that either automatically when they leave the form - or when a button is pressed - the text from Fld-Note is copied to Fld_History and date stamped.
Any future notes are also date stamped and appended to the info in Fld_History (ideally most recent first) so that users have an audit trail in Fld_History of what notes have been added and when e.g.

Hi! I have a problem. The code seems ok to me, cant understand it! I cant write out all records between to dates. The dataarea in the table are in the format: General date
Can someone help me?
SELECT * FROM Feil_problem WHERE Feil_problem.dato >= '01.01.2005 00:00:00'
AND Feil_problem.dato <'01.01.2005 00:00:00'
I'm trying to query to find the latest date of a file that has multiple dates. I need the criteria to be the last date, and not just display the last date so I can find the transaction. I thought Dmax may work, but I don't know what my criteria would be. I put an example below. I'm looking for the last date, which would be 5/5/2014. I can't put in the date as the criteria since I am using this for a large amount of files, and the dates differ.
File #
setupdate
transaction
100001
1/1/2014
1
100001
3/5/2014
2
100001
5/5/2014

I'm having a very strange problem with access. In vba I have an sql statement "select StudentID, CourseID from tblAttendance where AttendanceDate = #Whatever Date#".
Now this works for all dates (as far as I can see) before 01/07/2013 but after that it just doesn't find any records. I have manually added dates and checked and it didn't work.
How this could be possible? The date field is not in any relationship and it is Date/Time format. I don't even know how to go about troubleshooting this as it makes no sense to me.
It thinks these records have a date below 1/7/2013 and it can find dates after 1/12/2013.
I am trying to create a select query on "ApprovedDate" where no approval is recorded. IsNull returns an expected type mismatch. Any ideas?

I have a form that has four textboxes, date dropdown box and a date box. I am trying to get the form to do the following: Block user from writing in the textboxes if they have not selected a date in the date box.
Get the datebox to look at the behide screens records to see if there has already been a documented date (duplicate date) and inform the user that this date has already been used. Then auto them to the date dropdown.
I'm trying to create a report for how many "nasty grams" (rejection notices) my company has sent to people who keep sending in paper forms when they are supposed to file electronically.Every letter that goes out has information recorded based on whatever they sent to us - so the only remotely reliable way to count how many each person received is by the address on the envelope (people use different names, different business names, use different telephone numbers on the forms, etc).
I just built several queries that feed into a report that gets sent to my boss on a monthly basis to show the people who've sent in more than one paper form and have received our rejection notices more than once.I'm not the greatest at SQL, but I've been trying to find a way to use DISTINCT Addresses, leave all other fields the same (not DISTINCT), to:
1. Only return people who have received 2 or more letters
2. If at least one of the letters was sent more than 90 days ago
AND If at least one of the letters was within the last 90 days
-If at least one was within the last 90 days, only display the most recent send date of the letter (lots of people get back-to-back letters).
3. Display their names, addresses, telephone numbers, the date of the most recent letter sent, count of the total letters ever sent to that person. (the report will already do this, just need Max date)
My first query counts the number of times each address appears in the main table and simply only has [Address] and [CountofAddress]
My second query has the [Name], the [LetterDated] >=Now()-90, and the qryCountofAddress is linked to the main table by [Address], using [Countof Address] >=2...I have tried Selecting Unique Values in the Properties tab. Yes, I have tried INNER JOIN (but can't get the rest of my fields to display once I make addresses distinct).
I am using an audit trail on my database that works perfectly. My question is, can I run an update query and still log any updates through the audit process?
I suppose the update query is not a necessity, but it would be nice to retain it if possible.

OK, I have two tables that have pretty much the same data in them, but, the first table has SOME data that the second table doesn't and I need to get that data into the table that does not have it.
Here's a description of what I want to do:
Table #1 has about 10,000 lines of data with the employee SSN as the ID for the records. In this table are two extra columns of data (HRContact)and(HR ContactCode) that are not always populated in Table #2.
Table #2 has about 300,000 lines of data with the SSN as the ID field. Some of the records that match the SSN's from Table #1 have the data HRContact and HRContactCode, but not all of the records have those fields populated.
So, what I need to happen is for the query to go through Table #1, find the SSN of a record. As it finds each SSN, it goes to Table #2, finds that same record with the same SSN, then looks in the HRContact field to see if there is data there, or if it is Null. If there is data in that field, then it goes on to the next SSN in Table #1 and repeats the preceeding process. If the data in HRContact is Null in Table #2, then it goes back to Table #1 and grabs the HRContact and HRContactCode data for that record and writes it into the HRContact and HRContactCode field for the record in Table #2. the query would repeat this process until it reaches the end of file in Table #1.
I hope this is clear and if you have any questions, please ask me...
Thanks for your help,

I'm reworking a db to make it web compatible. Right now I'm working on my Price and Sales tables.There are about 900 Sales records, 450 Price records (for about 45 Items).
I have re-done my Price table with an Autonumber Key field. (It had a multi-key which I understand web db does not support.) Each autonumber key represents a Date with new Price for a Company/Item. The Price change Dates are random.
I have put a Foreign Field in my Sales table for the Price key field.
My dilemma is matching the Sales with the Prices.
When the Price Date and Sales Date do not match (at least half of them don't match), I need to look back in the Price table to the max Date BEFORE the Sales Date in the Sales table for that Company/Item in order to select the correct Price key.
I want to find out the last 6 months date from todays date. So as todays date is 27th january 2015 so the code should give me the date which is 6 months back from todays date so it will be something like 27th July 2014.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a query called VOLTEST that is not bound to the form. VOLTEST sums a field in a table from a subform. When the input is finished in the subform and control goes back to the main form, I want the total from the VOLTEST to show in a field on the form that is not a tab stop. Basically, this is just for reference.
I have tried to put =[VOLTEST]![SumOftest_value] in the control source of the field on the form but I keep getting "Name?" as the result instead of the sum total.
I can run the query in the gotfocus of the first field in the tab order after the subform and I get the correct result in a datasheet view. So, I know the query is working correctly. I just need it to show the result in field on the form.

I wrote a basic query that allows 1 field to search another, and if there is a match, it spits it out, however, I am getting 20,000 matches. I want to add another level of query to reduce the 20,000 matches down to 1 or 2 or none...
So I consolidated a government list, publicly available, into 1 field, and created a table that I can use as my query against the large government list:
SELECT [Consolidated Denied Party Report].*, [Consolidated Denied Party Report].[31]
FROM [Consolidated Denied Party Report]
WHERE ((([Consolidated Denied Party Report].[31]) Like "*" & [Please Enter Your Search Term] & "*"));
this allows me to search for a word, like, create, and it gives me every single result however it also gives me hits to words like PROcreate, which is fine on one hand because it shows possible false flags, but it would be nice to also be able to query down a level.
I now want to have the query look at the word "create" but also look at another column that is say the country... Germany.. and if I have text in the second column, only give me a result if the word create and germany are in the same field.. if create and Italy were in the same field, it would not be a hit.
I have a table linked to SQL Server 2014. As SQL Server 2014 does not support calculated fields I created a query to use formulas. Now I want to write formulas on the existing fields ( TotalMarks ) of table Not to create new fields.
View 1 Replies View RelatedBasically, I originally wanted to create a form which I can input data into Access with by using a button (I was unable to get Access to append the information from the forms to the table, so it didn't work out!). I did not want the fields on the form to be linked to a table, as then a record (and most importantly an auto-number) is created as soon as somebody starts typing. Should somebody stop typing halfway through and quit the form an autonumber will have been generated, which makes the number of "users" seem higher than it actually is. I got around this by changing the field from autonumber to number and then creating a query that selects the maximum value of ID in the table, then adds 1 to it (which is essentially the lowest unique number. I tend to call this newID).
The problem I now have is setting this to be written to the table alongside the data from the form (the rest of the fields on the form are now connected to the table, as I am no longer using an autonumber). I have tried the following: Setting the form to run the expression "[ID] = [qryMaximumUserID]![NewID] " on load. This returns the error "The object doesn't contain the Automation object 'qryMaximumUserID.' Setting the control source of the text box to be dLookup. This fills the textbox with the correct value, but then it doesn't write it to the table! Setting the default value of the field to be 0, then running an update query to update any ID of 0 (criteria "0" to the value of newID "update to: [qryMaximumUserID].[NewID]. "). However this doesn't work as whenever the query is run it asks for a parameter to be entered, rather than just taking the value from the other query. Writing a macro that is run on load to SetValue of item:[ID] to expression: [Forms]![qryMaximumUserID]![NewID]. However this returns an error "Microsoft Access cannot find the referenced form 'qryMaximumUserID' you entered in the expression.
Access 2007-10
Listbox created: List62 (I know I need to rename it, but for now)
Multi-select: Extended
Row Source Type: Field List
Row Source: qryFieldList
Open Query: qrySelectedFields (I added primary key to first column, just to have at least one destination field).
Goal: to select multiple fields within listbox, click on command button to open query "qrySelectedFields" with selected fields from list box.This is the code I have on the command_click:
Dim varItem As Variant
Dim strSQL As String
If Me.List62.ItemsSelected.Count = 0 Then
MsgBox "Please select one or more fields.", vbExclamation, "Healthcare REIT"
Me.List62.SetFocus
End If
[code]....
It does absolutely nothing - doesn't add the fields to "qrySelectedFields", doesn't open the query, notta.
I have a query based on an SQL database that our company uses to document problems and resolutions. I need to run a report that will show all the reports that were completed in the last 30 day. The field that the approval date is documented is called dbo_approved. Sometimes a report is approved and then at a later date reopened to add something then approved again. The design of this database is such that the first approval is one record and the second approval is a different record. So, using a normal query I will find some records that were previously appproved which I don't care about. I only want a list of reports that were approved for the first time within the last 30 days. Is there a criteria I can use in my query to only look for the first approval date?
As always I appreciate the help.

I've got an invoices table in my database, and I've got a payment approved checkbox that is false by default and a decision date field.
I want to find all outstanding invoices, and thought the best way to do this would be to check if the decision date is null, but that doesn't work.
How do I check for a blank field?
