Getting Query Criteria To Select All Records Or Specific Records In Query Design Section?
Jun 16, 2014
How can I get a Query Criteria To Select All Records or specific records in query design section.
I have a table that shows many departments with credit card transactions. I like to run a query to see specific department, or have an option to see all the departments when the query is run.
While I am not new to Access, I am not well versed in its abilities as far as combo boxes go. What I have is a Form where a combo box allows you to pick from a table records 'record ID #' in order to fill in the data of that record to the rest of the form.What I want to do is use a query to select specific records from this table and allow the combo box to show only these 'selected Record IDs' for user selection.
I am developing an Event Management DB for business training courses. I have an attendees table with a link to CompanyNames. I wish to be able to produce an attendees report based on the CompanyName ie all attendees from the selected company. I have done this by using a dropdown of companynames on a Criteria selection form. This works well. What I would also like to do is print the same list without the companyName criteria. I am aware I could make another query but was hoping that maybe there is a way of setting up the criteria in the companyName field so that it could accept either a company name or ALL company names.
In an Access 2010 form is it possible to export select records and fields in those records to a specific location?
Code: Set objDialog = Application.FileDialog(4) With objDialog .AllowMultiSelect = False .Title = "Please select a File" .InitialFilename = "C:" .Show If .SelectedItems.Count = 0 Then MsgBox ("Action Cancelled") Else
[code]....
The user can select the directory using the code above, but can specific fields in records be exported to a excel workbook in that selected directory?For example, if the are 5 records in the database can the fields LastName,FirstName,BirthDate in records 1,2,3 be exported to Setup.xlsx in that selected directory?
I'm sure this has a simple solution, but iv searched this forum and every solution that i get is filled with code that goes over my head! Well here goes...
I have a main form called expense... which contains a tab control. the tabcontrol in turn has three pages containing a subform each. (lets call them sbfrm1 sbfrm2 and sbrm3.) All three subforms are based on three different queries (say Qry1 Qry2 and Qry3) but the three queries are based on the same table. this table contains all the expenses incurred over the months across three categories (hence three queries). the subforms are to display these expenses according to categories.. i.e. sbfrm1 displays records pertaining to Category1, sbfrm2 for category2 etc.(the queries ensure that!)
when the main form opens, the subforms display all the records in the table according to category...but not according to the month in which the expenditure was incurred.
I now want to add a feature that enables the user to choose records pertaining to a given month at the click of a button.
for eg. if there is an option group named month, (with toggle buttons as the month names), then if the user selects the month Aug, then immediately the subform1 displays records under category1 for the month Aug? However I want to include an "ALL" option as well whereby all the records are displayed for all months (the category criteria must be maintained at any cost!!!! Is there a solution that will not use too much code!
Trying to build a CRM system for the office but am getting stuck with the below...
Each company (tblCompany) in the database has at least 1 enquiry (tblEnquiries) linked to it and normally at least 1 (sometimes 0) people (tblPeople).
I have a form which loads company specific information e.g. notes/quotes/orders/people/enquiries. All data is loaded based on the company unique id (c_id).
The attached image shows Company 1 (c_id = 1). It has 6 enquiries. However the subform only displays 5 of these. It does not display any which do not have a person (or p_id) linked to it - this is consistent throughout the database. I have included the table relationships and the enquiry as well in case they are needed!
Searching the net seems to suggest 2 possibilities:
1 - the relationship join type needs to be set to include all from tblEnquiries and only those from tblPeople where joined fields are equal, however changing the join properties does not appear to have an effect. 2 - table field types do not match (all _ID fields are set to number, unique numbers only).
[edit]: am using Access 2010!
I have re-designed the query to pull through tblEnquiries and tblPeople data based on the c_id field on the open form, which is now showing all records, including those not assigned to a person.
However, in the form I can select one from the query datasheet and open to see additional info. Those without a blank p_id number do not open, I receive the error:
"Run-time error '2113': The value you entered isn't valid for this field.
All _id fields are set to numeric so am not sure how to correct this?
In the Owner Name field, I am looking for a way to pull out all estates. They are abbreviated with "EST" or "Estate". The problem is throughout the database, if you do a simple filter for "contains est" it will include names such as "Forester" or "LHB Investments".
How do I query, or filter this database such that it only returns the estates abbreviated with "EST" or "Estate"?
Hello, I am sure this is quite simple, however I cannot figure it out. I have a query that shows tblPartNumber and tblAverage. The average is calculated in the query by taking the total minutes to assemble the parts, divided by the number of parts completed. What I am trying to do is run a query that will show me the most efficient (lowest average), time for each Partnumber. Ideally the query would show me something like this;
Part # Average 1234 .72 1234 .86 1234 .94 etc...
I searched on here and it seemed like the Top 10 is used, but in my application that ommits all of the other partnumbers because it only shows ten of the records for the first partnumber. I only want to see the five most efficient averages. Any help is greatly appreciated.
I have two tables, bad design, not my choice of the way it's set up.
Table a has Fields 1-2, dups allowed in all fields. No pk was originally assigned. Table b also has the same fields 1-6, but also has field 6.
Table a has all of the records in question, table b only has some of the records from table a but does not have any records that are not in a.
Something like this. Table a
Field1 Field 2 Field 3 Field 4 Field 5 John Shirt blue denim button Mark pants green straight John Shirt blue silk button
Table b
Field1 Field 2 Field 3 Field 4 Field 5 Field6 John Shirt blue denim button new Mark pants green straight used
If I query the two tables, a left join to b, then I get the correct number of total records. If I select any records from b, then the total records goes higher than there are, even for the two combined, listing the same record multiple time.
Any suggestions are appreciated. I am a blood bank lab person, not an IT person, or DBA, so simple responses are greatly appreciated.
As part of my job, each month I have to select 20 problem report resolutions and grade them on quality. Typically we have about 100 problem report resolutions per month. Is there a way I can use a query to return a random selection of 20?
I have to review 20 reports each month for quality check. I have a query that lists the reports completed within the past 30 days. Is there a way to filter this query to show only 20 random records?
If there is no way to do this, can you suggest some way of doing this so that it's impartial? For example I don't want to select the first 20 of the month because everyone will catch on and wait late in the month to post their report. Normally about 70 reports are completed in a month.
I'm having a problem get a query to select all of the records it should be.
When I filter the source table (200_STANDARDIZED NRGL) to show the data I want to see (PC2 = 6000; GAAP = 02; CGL = 0950, 2735, 2736, 3500 and 3501; STD VENDOR NAME = blanks), I get 33 records.
NOTE: Had to take the PC2 records that were not '6000' out of the dB I've attached in order to be able to send dB bu the PC2 filter is needed in the complete dB.
When I create a select query to the do the same thing, I get either:3 records (when I set STD VEND NAME to Like '') or 30 records (when I set STD VEND NAME to NOT Like '*' ) I've attached the dB - Query 1 is the subject of bullet 1 above and Query 2 is the subject of bullet 2 above.
BTW, the three records that show up in Query 1 are the same records missing from Query 2.
I'm having a bit of a situation with a select query that I set up.
I have two tables, both with a list of serial ID's.
One is table field is formatted like this:
"B0340 13 453423 X" The other is formatted like this: "=B03401345342300"
I wanted a select query that could show me the records in a universal serial like this:
"034013453423"
This leaves out the "spaces", the "B" and the " X". (Couldn't find a way to make Access generate a new field with the serial ID correctly without a query).
So I used the "Mid" expression in a select query and it worked, it showed me the first table in the correct format.I wrote the same "Mid" expression for the other table and it worked too.But, when I ask for the results for both tables in the same query, it shows me much more records than I have(all duplicates). I figured out that when in table one I have 20 records, in table two I have 5 then the query shows 120 results (20 x 5).
I have a simple select query on a SQL table from Access. The query is:
SELECT tbl_Orders.OrderID, tbl_Orders.Approved FROM tbl_Orders WHERE (((tbl_Orders.Approved)=0) AND ((tbl_Orders.Completed)<>0)) ORDER BY tbl_Orders.OrderID;
The strange thing is that sometimes it pulls 34 results, and sometimes 38. From what I can tell, it should be pulling all 38.
What can I do to make sure it gets all the records?
So I have a table with around 20,000 records and there is a field which holds a phone number for each individual within the organization, I want to run a select query that counts how many are not in the correct format
The format is 10 digits and it must start with a 0
I have records using a select query that I am sending to a make table. I would like to have those records excluded from being used again for 180 days, at which point they can be used again. Essentially, I have an ID and an email address which gets stored in the Make Table. I would need to ensure that if we send an email out in Week 1, we do not send an email again for another 180 days if there is activity from that same ID. On day 181, the ID/email address can then be resent.
I have a form which contains a listbox. It is a multi-select listbox. And I have a button on the form which runs a report. But I want the report to only show the selected records from the listbox. The report gets its records from an underlying query. But how do I make the selected records on the listbox become the query criteria?
I want to run a query on a table that holds all speed information for our trucks imported from a third party. Some of the speed alerts in that table are not correct so we set up a second table managed by the users to enter a speed exception. So if we know that Main St in Dallas TX generates false alerts for speeding we know not to call the driver, the third party db speed limit is not up to date.
So I want my query to pull all the speed data from tblSpeedData, except leave out the records where the street and zip are listed in the tblSpeedExceptions.
I created a subform that displays the records of a select query after selecting the desired data from a single combo box (for instructors name) and then using an OpenQuery macro attached to a button.
Only 1 record is displayed in the subform each time I hit the button. If I look at the query return there is no change. However, if I close the query and select a new instructors name, although I only get one record in the subform, the query when opened shows all the correct records.
I have what I think is a simple query returning the names of students that have been dismissed since September 2012 using a "WithdrawnDate" field. The query pulls a lot of information from other related tables (about 6 different ones), and has two expressions.
When the criteria is set to either "Is Not Null" or a date range (which is all I need), it does not return the complete set of records based on the data that fits the criteria in the main table?
Could there be some sort of join preventing all records from being returned?
