I hope I can ask this question so that it makes sense.
I have a totals query that I'm using to make a Chart. The query works fine but I want to change the look abit. What I'm doing is quering a table looking for the total number of times that there is a check box in a field called PDC RTA and totaling the Hrs as well. The data comes back looking looking like this.
PDC RTA-----Count-----Total Hrs
-1 ---------- 6 -------- 53
0 -----------25 -------- 78
My problem is that when I chart this the -1 and 0 show up at the bottom of the bars on the chart. I would like to rename these to fields on the qry qrid then I can chart the new field names so that it will make sense to the user.
Is there anyway I can add a sort of count field to my query, for example what I require is the result of my query to include a column which counts the rows in the queries.

I have created a form from a query. I have then at a later date added a new field to the query. I have returned to the form and attempted to add it to the form but it doesn't show the new field within the control source options. Does anyone know why? Do I really have to start all over again with my form?
I have a make table query created from a linked to a table. i want to add field to the make table query that are not fields on the table. How do i insert a created field? Hopefully this is a basic question.....
Hi there - i'm looking for a bit of help on something that is probably obvious to experienced Access users - i've checked the forum for about 25 min or so and couldn't find a related answer to this question.
I have a select query (QRY2) that reads another select qery (QRY1), and I need to (or rather, i'd like to) add a field to QRY1 - how do I get it so i can view this new field from QRY1 in QRY2?
I have a database which tracks the performance of my team and how long it took them to send something out to the customer. We have a target of 5 minutes.
So I quite a few queries to drill down this information. I have a summary query that takes that information and tells me the total amount of things sent, the amount of things sent in time and the amount of things sent late.
My team have to get at least 95% out on time. So how would I go about adding this bit into the query. The calculation is:
The amount sent on time / the total amount * 100
But is there anyway to add this into a 4th column displayed next to these figures?
Looking around a few people have talked about SQL but I no nothing about this and it seems quite daunting, is there a way to do this as a calculated field?
I've got a fields called rev code that contain the following values:
field name: 110 131 250 255 258
field value: 7.49 6 11.25 12.11 78
I'm writing a query that pulls from the first two digits of the rev code and need to round off to the nearest dollar so in my query I'll have a column 11 with a value of 7, a column 13 with a value of 6, then I need to take columns 250 255 and 255 add the values together and round off so I get a column 25 with a value of 101.
I am writing a sports database and have a query that displays a seasons fixture list in a form. One of the fields shows the points from each game played. (either 3 for a win, 1 for a draw etc). I can not get these points to be added up and displayed in a form along side the fixture list.
I have a date picker field in my form that is used as part of a criteria in a query. I also add it as a result field in the query being that it is appending data to a table. But when the query runs it puts weird characters into the query field with expression.
The Expression is as follows:
BillWk: [Forms]![Invoice Form]![WkEnd]
My Criteria is: Between [Forms]![Invoice Form]![WkEnd] And [Forms]![Invoice Form]![WkEnd]-6
I am looking for a way to add a calculated field to the end of an existing query using VBA. Is there an easy way to do this?
The data I receive from an external supplier shows monthly data split by column with a new column added in each month. I then need to reflect this by adding a new column to the end of the query. It is currently a manual tweak, but I want to automate this with code.
I'd like to know how to add a blank filed (memo), called "comments" that is not pulled in from any existing table, in an existing maketable query which is getting it's fields from different linked tables , so that the destination table that comes out of this query, has all those data along with an extra column for me to add comments.
I'm using Access 2003...I have a query that searches a parts table by description:
Like "*" & [Enter in Part Description to search] & "*"
I need to add another search to this query, I added another field to the parts table call manufacturer. I add this field to the above query and added this parameter to it:
Like [Enter in Manufacturer] & "*"
I then added a manufacturer to one of the fields for test purposes. For some odd reason this doesn't work. If I take out the manufacturer parameter and don't enter in anything into the part description the query returns all the records. When i type a description into the part description field the query returns the proper records. When I add back the manufacturer parameter and enter through both parameters only the one record returns showing the test record instead of all of them. If I put a part description in and enter through the manufacturer parameter no records show when they should.
I've tried adding a test field to a different table and tried a different query using the like parameter. The parameter works in a field already in the table but won't work with the new field I added. I've done compact and repair.
Ok, this may be a ridiculous question to ask, and i imagine there is a simple answer, but i cant see it. maybe its coz i learnt access from the "for dummies" guide :)

I got a question about a database I'm trying to design. It's a small cable management system.
I want to create a form that shows where the port of a computer is connected to.
For example; A computer has one ethernet port. That port is connected to a switch. I can add the fields for the Unique hardware ID and for the ports of the computer. But I can't seem to chose a device where the computer is connected to.
Ive tried working with queries.. but nothing seems to work so far.
I created a small example of the database I'm trying to make.
The attachment is the database Im working on and I have a problem. I need to add a supplier Product number in there some where so I could keep the numbe as reference and so it may be easier to enter items recieved. in the form section, I will have Invoice with a sub form Invoice details. I need to put suppliers Item number somehow so it would search and if the item is on the product list it would fill out the rest of the values.
should I make a separate table for suppliers product number or should I just include that into the invoice detail? I dont want to put it in the product table since I get same Items from different suppliers.
Hi again. I finally have time to start working on my access project, and what I want to know is how could a field technician add to access from the field, either with a laptop or possible even a pda. things a tech would need to add are notes, different readings that monitor job progress, equipment placed at the job site, other things like that.
I have a field that contains various text....(It's a note field that allows 86 characters).
I want to go in to the database and add the string "Conversion 2007" to the end of every record. So leave whatever is in there but add in the string. I would like it to add whatever it will fit, in the cases where there is not enough room.
I figured this was somewhat simple, but I haven't found anything yet. Thanks.
I am using a Microsoft Access Form and would like to add some new fields and have no idea where to start. Any step-by-step help would be greatly appreciated.
I am an amateur and would need step by step so minute details would be greatly appreciated.

I'm importing a text file into Access. The file is just a string of numbers that I'm breaking apart into three fields. Once those three fields have been broken apart by the import tool I need to add a new field that just contains the year.
For example, I import the 1990 data file that is .txt format and I break apart the three fields while it's imported. Once imported into three fields, I want to add a 4th field that says 1990 for every record. This has to be a pretty simple thing to do, but I can't figure out how to add a single number as a new field to every record in the database.
I need for a valued to be changed in a row after it checks for how many rows have another value, counting how many and that number making it the amount field.
Example: Fields- Name sponsor amount
I want access to show how many people have been sponsored by Gabriel... So if 3 where sponsored by Gabriel show 3 to the amount field for Gabriel row! Any way to do this or an easier way?
I for it to check it every time a user is added incase the user added is sponsored by Gabriel add it automatically!
I'd like to add a customer type field from my 'Customer:Table' to my 'Customer Balance Report' Also, I need to create a validation rule in my table specific the legal values of SAL, SPG and WMN in my customer type field. with validation text, which I'm not sure how to do.
I have created the code below to add a new column to a table each month. This may not be the best database design but it meets our needs for now.
However I am having difficultly with the code below. The CreateField Function is unable to accept the parameter periodDate. Any Suggestions on this would be apprerciated
Function DateField() As Long
Dim colFullName As Object Dim dbsCurrent As Object Dim yearInt As Integer Dim monthInt As Integer Dim table1 As Object
Set dbsCurrent = CurrentDb Set table1 = CurrentDb.CreateTableDef("103TblCustomerBalancesCombined")
yearInt = Year(Date) monthInt = Month(Date) - 1
If monthInt = 0 Then periodDate = CLng(yearInt - 1 & 12) Exit Function End If
If monthInt < 10 Then periodDate = CLng(yearInt & "0" & monthInt) Else periodDate = CLng(yearInt & "" & monthInt) End If
Set colFullName = table1.CreateField(periodDate, DB_TEXT) table1.Fields.Append colFullName
