Combining 2 Tables Into 1 Using Queries
Nov 13, 2006
I've been asked to make a DB for our production. We have 2 sources, of which have similar field names and collect completely different data, but can not be linked. I don't want them to be linked either, I don't think. The only thing I want to do is to take the 2 tables I have from my 2 sources and combine them into one. I'm using the first table in a make table query and then creating blank fields in the query also, so I can append the data from the second source in the "all production" table. The only problem I'm running into is that I can only get to 26 fields in the make table query, I need 31 fields to get everything. I tried creating a new query and not using any tables, and I was able to get to 16 fields. Is there something I'm doing wrong, or is there another way I can get a table created will all fields I need and append the data from both sources? I would need to be able to re-run this daily which is why I was trying to do it through a query. Thanks for any help/ideas. It's greatly appreciated!

I have an invoice form that is from tblInvoice, and on that form i have 5 subforms all tied to 5 tables, tblRepair1, tblRepairs2, etc. When we get service done at a shop the user can enter up to 5 repair types, which all five tblRepairs are joined to the InvoiceID of the tblInvoice.
the issues is one user might put oil change in repair 1 and tire rotation in repair 2 and the other 3 repairs not used. another user may use all 5 repairs and put oil change in the repair 5 field. What i want to do is query a repair type, Oil change, and get every InvoiceID record that has oil change in it regardless of what repair table it was stored in, or in other words regardless of if it was entered in repair1 or repair5.
i have tried to "step down" the criteria referencing the cbx on the search form but if queries blank. I only want the records that have an oil change in them but still want to see all the repairs that were done with it.

I have 3 cross tab queries that are completely identical with the exception of the field that they pivot. Each field is searching for the same values just in different columns, with the end goal being to get the sum of the values for each pivoted column. I'm wondering rather than having 3 almost identical queries is there a way to use a crosstab to sum the values from each of the three fields rather that having 3 queries which then have to be aggregated in a fourth?
QUERY1
Code:
TRANSFORM
IIf(Count(PT_LEVEL.UNIT) Is Null,0,Count(PT_LEVEL.UNIT)) AS CountOfUNIT
SELECT
PT_LEVEL.INF_YEAR,
PT_LEVEL.INF_MONTH,
PT_LEVEL.UNIT
[code]...

I have just started using MS Access to enter customers into a database. I constructed the database and delegated the .mdb file to my coworkers so that they can enter their customers as well. Now I would like to combine all the customers entered by all the employees into one general table/database containing all of the customers entered by all of the employees. If anyone knows how I would go about doing that I would really appreciate the knowledge. Thank you.

Hi,
I want to join (combine) two tables that have only identical column fields in common into one master table. There is no relation between the two tables. This master table I will use afterwards as basis for a excel pivot table. How can I do this?
Suppose I do not have identical column fields. Is it still possible to combine the tables and that in the new table the missings are filled with eg zero's.
Thx,
Agamemnon

:confused: I need help desperately. I have two tables I am trying to comine in a query. Seems easy enough right? Yet the simple task has become impossible. I have two tables with the same feild for data, both containing 8 coulmns. Ex:
Table A-January
Columns
A B C
Data: 1,2,3
Table B-February
Columns
A B C
Data: 4,5,6
I'm trying to create a query that will contain the data 1,2,3,4,5,6 but am getting 11111111111,222222222,33333333333,4444444444,55555 55555,6666666, or getting 1,3,5. I've tried refining the data in many ways, even tried just created a table. Hand keying it in seems rediculous due to the end numbers being over 10,000. Any advice??? Please??? :(

I have two queries, one base upon the other. I would like to combine them (If Possible) into one query so I can embed them into a form or report. I have tried without success at finding the answer on the forum as well as searching the web.
The table lists employee numbers and dates they worked. I need a count of how many employees worked each year, based upon the paycheck date, not the actual date worked. Pay check dates are two weeks apart. An extreme example, is the first pay check date of 2010 was on 1/1/2010, but all the days worked were in 2009, this would have to be included in 2010 not 2009(See the query for further date calculation understanding). Anyway, the date calculations are not the issue here.
I only have one table, so if I am not mistaken, I can't use the WHERE (SELECT... JOIN) feature. I also was unsuccessful at using SQL DISTINCT.
I am running ACCESS 2010 Tables are ACCESS 2007.
OS is Windows 7 Ultimate.
I have included a same database with the queries. qryEmployeesAnually2 is the results I am trying to achieve.

I am working on a report that has some special characteristics.
Let's say I have a list of groups of Vendors in a table, complete with VendorID. I have 3 other tables that use the VendorID: Complaints, Complements, and Terminations.
Each of these tables has a date that the Complaint, Complement, and Termination notice was received.
Every Fiscal Quarter, a report is pulled that looks back over the 4 preceding quarters to determine if a 5% threshold has been crossed by any of the vendor-groups in regards to the amount of Complaints they received.
The equation used for that is : (complaints/vendors_in_group)*100
It is imperative that the information has the current fiscal year and fiscal month (which I am tracking with functions from MS website), and I need to be able to store the information attached to the fiscal year and month.So when a user goes to the form and inputs the desired Fiscal Year and Fiscal Month, the database can display the 4 previous quarters of information...split into Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4.
What I would like to have happen is to be able to have one table where the information is stored, quarterly, so that it can be retrieved for the report.
Questions:
1. Is it possible to have one line, per VendorID, that has the total number of Complements, Complaints, and Terminations, as well as the threshold percent stored in a table? Right now, I am getting LOTS of duplicates and blank lines when I try to put them all together. It has the right data, but takes about 10 rows per VendorID.
2. It is very important that the total number of Vendors in a group be captured on that quarterly report, so maintaining that number, in the same table, is essential and must be tied to the VendorID.
3. I have looked at Union Queries and Crosstabs, but I just dont know enough about them to make it work.

As the title suggests I would like to combine the data from two tables.
The first table records customer orders in fields - Part No / Quantity / Reqd Date Of Delivery
The second table is an output from a scanning s/w package we recently installed.
This provides the following data - Pack Qty / Part Number / Date Scanned.
The first thing I did was create a simply summing query to add up all the pack qtys for a specific part on a specific day.
Now comes the hard part.
What I want to do is sort and combine both tables in chronological order.
Where the part number & date for an order and a delivery match, I require the record to be combined to one record (in this query).
Where it does not match, then it should remain as two seperate records.
So for example if you ordered 100 footballs for delivery on 11/11, and we delivered 110 footballs on 11/11, the query would return:
Footballs 11/11 100 110
If the delivery was early / late we would get:
Footballs 11/11 100 0
Footballs 12/11 0 110
Now this last bit is where my queries (simple cross table queries) falls down as I only have three options when creating the join properties, ie both match, all from left table or all from right table, whereas I want all from both tables even if they do not match.
Maybe a query is the wrong way to go, but as the table from the scanner s/w is updated on a daily basis it would seem to me to be the best way forward.
Can anyone help?

I am rather new to access and only have a public education, so be gentle. My problem is I have made two tables within access. The first one is names and other information (5800 accounts). The second one is names and phone numbers (2300 accounts). The names are in the system exactly the same for both tables. All the names on the second list are contained within the first list. I need to create a table or query that will match the names with the phone numbers and also show me the names that I do not have the phone numbers for. Basically I need a list that has 5800 accounts, shows who has a phone number and who does not have a phone number. I have made a relationship between the two tables based on the person’s name. I used the code below and put the code in the “criteria” and “name” block. However, I received no results. When I remove the code from the query I receive only the results from list 2 (2300 accounts) and no data from list 1. Any Ideas?
FROM [5480 Master Data] INNER JOIN [5480 Meal Collection] ON [5480 Master Data].name=[5480 Meal Collection].name

Hello all,
I have two MS Access tables; table1 contains installing records (fields = serial, installdate) and table2 contains de-installing records (fields = serial, deinstalldate). Tables are structured as followed:
Table1:
serialX installdate1
serialX installdate2
serialX installdate3
Table2:
serialX deinstalldate1
serialX deinstalldate2
I'd like to combine the above two tables to get:
Table3:
serialX installdate1 deinstalldate1
serialX installdate2 deinstalldate2
serialX installdate3 null
Is it possible? Right now, whenever I joined the two table on serialX I got 2 deinstalldate's for each installdate, e.g.:
serialX installdate1 deinstalldate1
serialX installdate1 deinstalldate2
serialX installdate2 deinstalldate1
serialX installdate2 deinstalldate2
..........
Thanks in advance for your time and help! I'd appreciate it!
Best regards,
Andy

I'm creating a database which would automatically assign a unique workorder number in the "WorkorderNumber" field of the "Workorder" table. Note: this will not be the Primary number for the work order.The WorkorderNumber will be developed by combining fields from the "System" table. Fields used to create the WorkorderNumber from the "System" table are:
1) Location [currently in the field is "MAX"]
2) CalendarYear [currently in the field is "2014"]
3) NextWorkorderNumber [currently in the field is "1"]
I need the following to happen to the "WorkorderNumber" field of the "Workorder" table:
a. I need the field to read as followed: Max-2014-00001
b. I need the number 00001 to autonumber to 00002 on the next entry of a new request. [MAX-2014-00002].
c. I need to be able to control how the "WorkorderNumber" field populates by changing the "CalendarYear" and "NextWorkorderNumber" fields within the "System" table without messing up prior workorder numbers already populated.

Hi there,
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.

I have two queries:
1. a sum of payments by individuals
2. a sum of charges of individuals.
I want to combine these queries to create a report that shows the sums for each person of the charges and payments and calculate the balance. However, it is only showing me those individuals that have both a charge sum and a payment sum, while some individuals will only have a charge sum. How do I get those individuals to show and show with a zero payment balance if they are in my charge sum query but not my payment sum query and vice versa (some may have made a prepayment even though they have not been charged yet).

Im trying to join two queries as I am unable to use just a single query but I cant use a union query as the query fields aren't exactly the same.
Both queries have a PO_Detail field as every PO has a PO_Detail number assigned to it. 3 of the same records are in both query results but one query is missing the other two results.
If I create a join between the two queries based on this field I don't get all the results. Unfortunately I cant upload the database as it has sensitive data which would take me ages to clear out but I can show a picture of the results.

I trying to combine three columns that I have into one column without combining fields.
Currently what I have:

What I want:
ID-----MOC
##----name1
##----name2
##----name3
##----name4
##----name5
etc
The list I have will be much longer and will be changing frequently, which is why I can't just go on excel and manually do this.

I have three tables, with the following data (fields separated by "-" here):
Unit - Customer Number - Customer Name - Type of A/R - Total A/R
Unit - Customer Number - Customer Name - Type of A/R - Total Overdue
Unit - Customer Number - Customer Name - Type of A/R - > 90 Day Balance
I would like to combine these tables into one table with the following field names:
Unit - Customer Number - Customer Name - Type of A/R - Balance
When I append the data, it comes out like this:
Unit - Customer Number - Customer Name - Type of A/R - Total A/R - Type of A/R - Total Overdue - Type of A/R - > 90 Day Balance
I would like this new table to include all rows from the original tables, sandwiched on top of each other. As far as I can work it, the Append Query only adds the data as add'l columns; not as add'l rows. I tried changing the field names entirely, so that the final field in each table is called "Balance." However, I still get the same result as above - the columns are added, instead of rows. I swear there's a way to do this, I just can't remember it!

My Approach database contains records relating to nearly 800 sites in London. There are radically different amounts of data held about each site. The database contains a lot of different tables, each containing a different class of information. Not all the sites listed in the database have information in all of the tables.
The unique thing that holds it all together is the unique site reference number. Unfortunately this is split into two separate columns in the Approach database, "Reference" and "Suffix". Not all sites have a suffix. (The purpose of the suffix is to identify sub-sites which are subordinate to the main site reference, but need to have their own individual records.) Because many sites have no suffix, most of the fields in the second column are blank.
In order to link all the tables together in access I need a Primary Key which is unique to each site. In this case the reference/suffix number is the obvious (only) candidate. There is no problem using two different columns to create a primary key. The problem I face is that it doesn't like the fact many of the fields in the second column are blank.
My solution to this is to combine the two columns into one. That would give every site a unique reference, and none of the fields in the combined column would be blank. Can I work out how to do it? All I want is a new column that displays the reference and suffix (if any) in a single field, no spaces.

How i would best combine values in a table to produce a 'primary key id number.'
For example: the first letter of a city in the ID and the next number available/auto number - Portsmouth -> P233
I know i can create this in a query however i want it as the unique ID for that record entry in a table. If that doesn't make sense i can try to elaborate some more.

I have a database that uses a field for the year (but I'm using a fiscal year that will end June 30, 2013) and another field as an autonumber. I use the year and autonumber as my reference number (i.e 2013-0001). I'd like to be able to combine these fields to generate the entire number. Also, I'd like for the year to add 1 beginning July 1st of each calendar year, and the autonumber start over at 0001 (i.e. 2014-0001 on July 1, 2013). Is this possible, and if so, how can I do it?

Thank you in advance for your assistance.
I've read through the other threads but can't seem to find anything that is simple (not an experienced SQLer so can't really tweak too much) and that would work for my problem.
I have a Project table linked to an Invoice Table (1 to many respectively)
The Invoice table linked to a Transaction table (1 to many respectively). 1 invoice can be paid out to many different cost centers and amounts.
I also have a Reclass table that is linked to the Project table.
Basically Invoices can be processed to multiple cost centers originally. But can also be reclassed at a later date to other cost centers.
The way the database is setup is so that if there are 10 invoices each having multiple records in the Transaction table (charging 1 invoice to multiple cost centers) AND we need to reclass them. We don't want to reclass each an every invoice and transaction record. It setup so that we can take the total invoiced amount for the project (sumed up all the invoices for that project) and reclass one total amount.
The problem is now I have 2 separate "financial" tables. One for the original invoice payment transaction (Transaction table which has the original cost centers and amounts) and a Reclass table with the "new" cost centers and amounts.
I need to combine them so that the financial reporting will reflect the reclasses (moving dollars from one cost center to another).
I tried creating a separate table (All Financials Table) that I can append the "original" Transaction table and Reclass table to use for reporting. I have this working but I can forsee possible problems going forward (i.e. user may append multiple times by a button click).
Is there a simple way to do a combined query on both the Transaction and Reclass table. Both queries have the following: Project ID, Cost Center and Amount. The problem I'm having is that if one table has 10 records of say cost center 123456 and the other has 3 records of 123456. The query ends up giving me 30 records.
I know my explanation is long but I think it will help paint the bigger picture.
Thanks again for reading this!

I have a query called Spans1 that calculates the difference between dates:
SELECT [Rasp].[Issue Number], [Rasp].Issues, [Rasp].Status, [Rasp].Date_Received, [Rasp].Date_Resolved, DateDiff("d",[Date_Received],[Date_Resolved]) AS Span
FROM [Rasp]
WHERE ((([Rasp].Status) Like "*" & [Enter status]));
I have another query called Average_Span that gives me an overall average number of days between the dates in the above query:
SELECT Format(Avg([Span]),"0.0") AS Expr2
FROM Spans1;
Is there a way to combine the 2 so that I get the spans and an overall average? Any help is greatly appreciated.
