Hard For Me, Easy For You!
Jan 17, 2006I really have got a mind block!
I am creating a small DB for a vast CD collection and have 3 related tables at present.
I want to have 1 table with the artists, but have it updated when I add a new artist on the main table/form.
So the form does not have the artist. I add that artist, and it is added to the artist table for future use.
Sure I can do this, but cant rememebr how. Please help :)

Too Hard For Me...Help
May 16, 2006hi all,
I'm just beginning to know the world of Access so maybe the solution for my problem is pretty simple.
I have a huge database with Itemcodes, Costprice of materials and EffectiveDate (date on which new prices are valid). These dates represent past dates as well as future dates. The one that interests me the most is the most recent date in the past.
What I would need is a query that filters out the most recent date per itemcode because right now there are several prices with several validity dates. Eventually it should result in a database that shows an item with one validitydate and one price.
Right now the same itemcodes are repeated because different validitydates are related to it.
I really hope somebody can help me out on this.
Thanks in advance.
Need Help With Hard Query
Jul 8, 2005My DB has a table named noldba.int_member_history, which contains the following fields:
member_id,
date_start,
date_end,
member_status,
iva_case_id,
case_id,
It is possible for the member to have several lines of data under their same member_id like this:
member_id date_start date_end member_status iva_case_id case_id
20125626 12/1/1990 2/31/1990 N 21116625 20002717C
20125626 1/1/1991 4/30/1992 A 62574431A 20002717C
20125626 5/1/1992 8/31/2000 N 20006625 20002717C
20125626 9/1/2000 12/31/9999 M 21116625 20002717C
20125626 8/1/2000 12/31/9999 M 20111832 20090698C
So this member had 4 start and end dates under case 20002717C
and only 1 start and end date under case 20090698C
I'm trying to write a query which is looking for member_id's along with a case_id which only has one member_status returned from the query and the
member_status must be M. In this case the member has two cases which have the M member_status, but case 20002717C has other types of member status so I would not want the query to return the 20002717C case, only the 20090698C
I'm sure Im asking for something that can't be done...but I'd never know unless I asked. Thanks

Any help would be appreciated.
Year Only -haw Hard Can This Be!!!
Aug 24, 2006I want a field in a table that is a date but that is the year only.
I only want this because I want to be able to filter my charts to show one or a span of years for comparison. I have criteria in a query that states between [forms].[charts].[begin] and [forms].[charts].[end] and the corresponding form that my user puts the desired begginning and ending dates into before pressing buttons that bring up the charts based on the query.
My problem is that I can't even get the table to take a year only date. If I leave the date field as text the between clause in the query won't work. I tried it as a number with >= etc. and that didn't work either.
How hard can something this simple be?
Please help me oh cyberspace wizards.

A REALLY Hard Query Question
Aug 12, 2005Hi,
Currently I have one query that prompts the user for a beginning date, and end date of a week. It then proceeds to show the user all records in that time frame and makes a table. Now I need another query that looks at the dates the user had entered and gets all the records from the week before the user's dates. This query would also be a table query, but separate from the first one.
If anyone at all is able to help me out, I will be deeply impressed and eternally grateful! :)
Thanks,
Chris C.
Having A Hard Time With LIKE Operator
Sep 3, 2005I want to create a query that extract rows that has a specific word.
i.e.
select * fro table where field like "*ART*"
however it should not retrieve "DART" or "ARTI"
i tried using the following [!a-z] and * like this:
SELECT * from DLs where DLName like "*[!a-z]ART" or DLName like "*[!a-z]ART[!a-z]*" or DLName like "ART[!a-r,s,!t-z]*" or DLName like "ART"
it is very long and complicated - cant i cover it all with one like ?
Also the fact that i also want it to get ARTS (i dont know how to say !a-z expect 's')
Thanx in advance
Help With A Query... Hard To Explain
Mar 29, 2008Hi all!, i would really appriciate it if you could help me out. I have this complex query... in one table i have dates and costs associated that show when fuel was put into the system
such as:
1/1/2008 -- $200
1/20/2008 - $100
1/25/2008 - $150
I then have another table that has data when fuel was taken out of the system
such as:
1/2/2008 -- ($50)
1/3/2008 -- ($20)
1/4/2008 -- ($10)
what i need is a query that is able to show a running tab on the fuel tank and how much fuel is in it...
so for example if it could spit out a result such as
1/1/2008 -- $200
1/2/2008 -- $150
1/3/2008 -- $130
1/4/2008 -- $120
If this is convoluted i can upload a little database..
Thanks! (Here is the current query i am using but its not working right.
SELECT DatePart("yyyy",[purchase_Date]) AS AYear, DatePart("m",[Purchase_Date]) AS AMonth, DatePart("d",[Purchase_Date]) AS ADay, DSum("gallons_purchased","purchase_fuel_tbl","DatePart('d', [purchase_Date])<=" & [ADay] & " And DatePart('m',
[purchase_Date])<=" & [AMonth] & " And DatePart('yyyy',

Unique Hard Drive Serial
Dec 8, 2005I have seen some API that gets the serial of the hard drive, but this information is not unique and changes when the volume is formated.
Does any one know of a way to return the orignal manufucture's information/serial which is unique(GUID) to the volume.
Any Idea will be highly appreciated.

Oct 11, 2004I have a split database on the network, but I believe it contains hard links (i.e. H:path odb). So, if others use it, if they don't have their H drive mapped the same way I do, they'll get errors. How can I fix this so that it maps to the full path (i.e. \path odb)?

View 1 Replies View RelatedPlease Help Me Figure This Out How To Do This...
Nov 26, 2007Hi,
I'm creating a new database for an investment brokerage company. The company invests clients' funds for a specific length of time and pays out a return on their investment on a weekly basis for the duration of the investment.
This is my first real database so I'm gonna need all the help I can get. The company has some pretty huge requirements but right now I'm focusing on phase 1 which will be very simple.
Right now I'm working on the database design but there's been one thing which has been bugging me for a while so I figured I'd ask you guys to help me get my head around this.
Let's say we have a table called Investments. This table will include data on the amount invested, the number of weeks invested for, and the ROI percentage. For example...
Investment Record Example
Amount: £10,000
Weeks: 10 weeks
Percentage: 10%
One of the requirements of the database is to produce a report that will list each week of the cycle and the amount paid to the client. This will require calculations in order to produce this data. Here's an example...
Payment Report Example
Week # | Payment Date | Payment Amount | Notes
1 | 1/1/01 | £100 | Enjoy your first payment! :-)
I can see how this can be easily done by producing a query and then a printing a report based on it. However, here's the tricky bit... for various reasons, the payment date or the payment amount for a certain week may need to be modified, and a note value may need to be added for particular weeks.
Of course, I could just create another table called Payments to contain this information, but I don't want to have to enter the data manually. It would be a lot more productive to have the database calculate these values, but somehow let the user modify these values, if necessary. That's what I need to figure out!
Can someone advise me how this can be accomplished? I've been reading up on the Make Table feature, will that do the job? Note that I do NOT want to create a payments table for every client so I'm quite sure.
I look forward to reading your replies.
Thanks in advance.
Warmest,
Zahid

Jun 30, 2006This is probably a long shot, but I figured I'd post it anyways. We have a form that is used to input customer data. It was written about a year and a half ago and uses some programming in it. It's worked fine on the people's computers it was originally installed on, but recently we've tried to put it on some of the newer computers and when we run the form, it just freezes Access up instead of going to the form log-in screen. The weird thing is, it works on some of the new computers. They all have the same version of windows and the same version of Access, and the code in the form itself hasn't changed at all. I was thinking maybe the form was looking for something that wasn't there, and freezes because of that. Anyways, any ideas would be appreciated.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHow Do I Do This? Cant Figure It Out
Aug 9, 2006Situation: I have to seperate tables(table A and B), both have a part numbers field, manufacture field, and manufacture p/n fied. But only one of the tables(table B) has manufacture and manufacture p/n filled in. Also, some part numbers are missing from table A that need to be in B and some are missing from B that need to be in A.
Goal: My question is how do I make a query or whatever i need to tell access to find all the manufacture and manufacture p/n info(related to its designated part) in table B and put it into the fields in table A respectively. I guess i'm basically trying to join two fields in two different tables, i mean i need to the manufacture and manufacture p/n copied over to its related records in table A.
The reason for this is because we are migrating from Quickbooks to a program called Shoptech E2(access based) to do all our supply chain management. Things were correctly imported from QB except for the fact that the manufacture and manufacture p/n was not imported for some reason. Now E2 only looks at table A to pull its info and does not see the relationship, thats why i need manufacture and manufacture p/n copied over to table A to its respective parts.
Wireless Network Hard-drive Back-End
Mar 18, 2006Does anyone have any experience with placing a multi-user back-end access database on one of these inexpensive "external network hard drives"?
I have a situation where I'd like to share my database with multiple users, but the corporate IM rats have pretty much eliminated all means of allowing us lowly employees of doing that with their network. We have no file server. We do have sharepoint services, but we only have Access 2000, which as far as I know is not capable of exploiting the sharepoint/xml back-end database features. Also, no one in the office here can share a directory on their workstation because they won't grant us administrator priveledges.
So thats how I came upon the idea of buying or creating cheap (<$250 USD) wireless network hard-drive on which to put the back-end. I'm mainly interested in knowing if it will work, and that the performance isn't going to be absolutely pathetic. I'm only looking at having 3 or 4 users at any one time, and the entire database will only house a couple thousand records.
How To Replace Hard Coded Path Of Current Db
Aug 2, 2006I have something like this
Code:'sets generic workspace Set ws = DBEngine.Workspaces(0) 'sets target database from workspace ******NOTE hardcoded path****** Set db = ws.OpenDatabase("E:Status ReportstatusReport_Test.mdb") 'sets Recordset to deliverablePercentComplete sql statement for target database Set rs1 = db.OpenRecordset(deliverablePercentComplete)
is there a way to replace the path in the set db call, basically it is the current database that is being worked on, thus it is the current database that is opened, is there a way to say something like...
set db = ws.OpenDatabase(currentDB)

Need Help To Figure Out Where Event Came From
Sep 8, 2005OK, this form has a series of buttons that lead to other forms or open up into reports. The problem is I can't figure out how they do that. On the click event procedure of one of the buttons it says =HandleButtonClick(1) .
This is NOT a macro.
I don't think it's a command button either usually those say [Event Procedure] in the click event.
I can't figure it out. Anyone have any suggestions please?
