Is there a way, aside from using auto number, to find a records postion. I am using a list and want to be able to double click an entry and have it open a form and go to that record. However I can't use auto number because I allow for the deleting of records, and once deleted the auto number no longer corrilates to the records position.
If anyone knows of a different sytem that renumbers after deleting a record that would be great if you could share it with me. Or if there is a way to open a form and use goto record but instead of using record postion use where statement.
If anyone has any other ideas on this please share. Thanks.
I have a database I want to load tire and brake measurements into. I have created a table which I enter records into, including the date, measurement, the wheel position and the item (tires or brakes) being measured.
On the form I have a picture of a tire and a brake at each wheel position and I would like to be able to display in the control by each item the latest measurement in the main table that matches that wheel position and item.
I've got 2 tables, same structure, one [T-temp-Target] holds number of training units split by module a trainee needs to finish the course, the other [T-temp-Actual] holds what they've completed so far.
Both tables have structure TRAINEEID MODCODE CountOfUnits
I'm trying to find the modules that they've not done yet so I can add up the units for them, only modules that have been started are recorded in the table of what they've done [T-temp-Actual], modules they haven't started yet aren't included in it. Here's the SQL
Code: SELECT [T-temp-Target].TRAINEEID, [T-temp-Target].MODCODE, [T-temp-Actual].MODCODE FROM [T-temp-Actual] INNER JOIN [T-temp-Target] ON ([T-temp-Actual].TRAINEEID = [T-temp-Target].TRAINEEID) AND ([T-temp-Actual].MODCODE = [T-temp-Target].MODCODE) WHERE ((([T-temp-Actual].MODCODE) Is Null));
I have a database for work where I have a table of meters and a table of Faults which has a list of all faulty meters at one time. When a fault is repaired, I have a macro which updates the Meter Status to Working, adds a Fault Closed date, appends the record to the Closed table and then deletes it from the Faults table.
The user runs this from a form by clicking the Closed Fault button which activates the macro. I've added Echo on and off to hide that the form is temporarily closed while the Append and Delete queries are run and then it is re-opened again.
My problem is that the Form always opens at the first record in the Faults table. I would like it to open to the record which would have been next after the one that has been moved to the Closed Faults table.
Below is the code I have been using to test the Copying Meter Reference, closing and opening of the form and finding the correct record:-
Function CopyTest() On Error GoTo CopyTest_Err Dim strMeterRef As String DoCmd.SetWarnings False DoCmd.GoToRecord , "", acNext strMeterRef = Meter_Reference
[code]....
As you can see I am trying to go to the next record, copy the Meter_Reference by setting it to strMeterRef and then Find strMeterRef when the Faults form is re-opened.
I have a Macro embedded in a button which calls the above Function by using RunCode but nothing happens.
I have a table where csv files get imported to on a daily basis. The key fields I am working with are a supply number and date. The problem I have is that sometimes the csv file will contain information that is correcting/updating information held in the table. This is creating duplicated records.I need to either create a query to find records that have the same supply number and date or find a way of overwriting the records in the table with the new data.
I have a table listing xxx reasons for dispute - Users will check boxes. How do I build my query that would list all the entry numbers which have a text box?
Might sound stupid but what would be the criteria? Think it would be easier to get these results into a report and sum.
I have a database table which is basically a calendar containing 4 columns (i) the date, (ii) special info about that date, (iii) morning volunteers and (iv) afternoon volunteers.When I go to this table the cursor is positioned at the very first date and i then have to scroll though record after record to get to the current date.How can I get it to remember the last date used?I am using Vista and Access 2003
Hi, With a table in open view can a record be moved to a different position, i'm using access 2003. Also is there any way to sort besides ascending or descending? I've got a lot of tables to make and if I forget a single column/field and have to add it later (like I have done all ready numerious times) I'm almost having to recreate the table again in order to have the field fit in the correct spot in the table. These tables are bound to combo boxes so its important every thing is grouped for easy choosing.
I am looking for Idea's of how to create a report.
Basically the report is a league table showing Month and YTD, this is the easy bit.
The part I need suggestions and guidance on:
The report also needs to show peoples movements in the league table i.e: whether they have moved up, down or not moved at all from the previous months position.
I was thinking of creating 2 tables: Current Month + Previous Month, in each table the persons position is indicated (an ascending record number is created throughout the table - not sure how to do this yet)
Then using code, lookup each persons position in previous month and write that position number against the persons UID and current position in current months table.
Am I on the right tracks or does someone have an easier solution?
I've created several Split forms that have the data input fields in the form with the relevant query datasheet shown below. As you tab through the form fields, the various cells in the datasheet are highlighted and move across the data row (as one would expect!). I want to put a particular field / Column at the start of the datasheet so that it's always available for view, but it seeme that what ever I do the column ends up back at the very far end of the data row!
I've sussed out the "Freeze Fields" facility which will keep the first column visable whichever cell is highlighted across the data row.
The column I want as the first column currently sits at the far end of the data row. So far I have dragged the row to the first column position; I've arranged the Query driving the form so that the column is at the front of the row, both in design view and in datasheet view, but to no avail. Everything I do to put the column at the start of the row in the datasheet shown below the form ends up with it back at the far end of the row the next time I open the form.
Hi! Is it possible to make such query which will find all records that have name like keywords. These words are collected as s dictionary in another table in column name. Is it possible to make just one query or vb script that will search through all records using all of keywords given in dictonary? example dictionary: abaccus dolphin...... ..... query find records wich name is like abaccus or dolphin or........
Thank You in Advance for any advice cause i have big problem how to figure out.....I have to do this in my job......
Ok, let's say I have 3 tables with the following data
T1 T2 T3 1 , 1 , 1 2 , 2 , 3 3 , 4 , 4 , , 5
I'd like to be able to create a query that has the only record as its result as 5 as it is the only data item the does not exist in Tables 1 and 2. I don't just want to search for 5, I can do that :) I would like to be able to write a query which finds all the records that are present in one table, but are not present in x number (in this case 2) of other tables.
I don't seem to be able to find any simple way of doin this and there doesn't seem to be a definitive answer on any forums. Anyone got any ideas?? :)
Hi I'm have created a video database with a genre field. Is there a way that when i click a button a list is displayed of all the records which are the same genre? Thanks Aden
How would one go about comparing 2 tables and finding those records that are not common to both tables? For instance, I have a table that I suspect some records have been accidently deleted by the user. I would like to compare that table to an older version of the table, and list only those records that exist only in the older version of the table. Thanks.
Iv'e looked through several date functions but cant figure out which one to use or how. I want to produce all records for a period of 1 year, for 1 year ago. i.e if I run the query during any month of the 'current year' (obvously) if its after August it will show me the previous year of August to following July. My Start date is always August 1st of any year through to the following July 31st. It is relatively straight forward (I think)if it's from January to December because year part is the same but this becomes more complicated when you cover two different Year parts. I dont want to have to use a parameter Query of 'start date' and 'end date' I want to be able to run the query based on the system date now(). Any help would be appreciated thanks.
Hi, I have a table contains 5 fields are shown as below, how I can write a query to find out the duplicate of the records? I have created a couple of queries by using Find Duplicates Query Wizard to do it. But the results are not accurate enough.
Field 1: ID Field 2: Trading Name Field 3: Location No Field 4: Location Street Field 5: Location Suburb
IDTrading Name Location NoLocation StreetLocation Suburb 41350Arabica Café Grey St 263Arabica Cafe` 1GREY STREET 41294Arashi Japanese Resturant41Courtenay PL 150Arashi Kushi Yaki Bar41COURTENARY PLACE
From the data sample, I could like to find out the duplicated records. One of the queries is shown as below. But they cannot pick up these records. Any better way to find the duplicated records? Please help.
SELECT DISTINCTROW [C&B-will].[trading name], [C&B-will].[location street], [C&B-will].Field1, [C&B-will].[location no] FROM [C&B-will] WHERE ((([C&B-will].[trading name]) In (SELECT [trading name] FROM [C&B-will] As Tmp GROUP BY [trading name],[location street] HAVING Count(*)>1 And [location street] = [C&B-will].[location street]))) ORDER BY [C&B-will].[trading name], [C&B-will].[location street];
I have 2 tables. I want to find all the records between the two that match and then replace the contents of another field with a value such as "*" to signal the matched records.
If I were using dBase I would set a relationship between the two and repl all "fieldname" with "*" for seal = seal.
I have no idea where to start with this in Access. I was thinking it may be a query but I am not sure. It seems that if there is an Unmatched Query there may be a matched query. The replace seems to be more what I am trying to figure out how to do. I have searched on Replace but all I come up with is the basic Find/Replace.
I want a report to tell me a percentage of records. i have a report that records "records that are past date". I want the report to tell me the percentage of total records that are past date. I have a query that shows only past date records and a query that shows all records how do i do this?
I thought this would be relatively simple task to complete but its proving tricky.
I have two tables with the same data: E1 and E2
E1 has two columns and is as follows
A 1 B 2 C 3 D 4
E2 is similar except for one record '5'
A 1 B 2 C 5 D 4
Now the task is to show those records that do not match...in this instance
E1.Field1 E1.Field2 E2.Field2 C 3 5
Now I've used the find unmatched wizard and this is the SQL: SELECT E1.Field1, E1.Field2, E2.Field2 FROM E1 LEFT JOIN E2 ON E1.Field2 = E2.Field2 WHERE (((E2.Field2) Is Null));
this is giving me partially the right answer as in E1.Field1 E1.Field2 E2.Field2 C 3
I have a query which combines several linked tables, the query has about 10 columns, I need to show only the records which have one or more empty fields.
Some records may only have one missing field others may have several.
Hello, I am trying to generate some query result on a form. My DB consists of the following fields : tradeID and profit/loss. How do i make a query to find the Maximum consecutive number of wins and losses in the database and display the results on a form?
Would really appreciate it if any of you have tried to sort and display results for finding consecutive number of events in any database!
