I create a query from different tables. With an website based insert statement I put the data from this query to another table.
Is it possible to fill the table without the insert statement. But automatic done by the database itself. So insert/update all the query data automatic into the table
I currently have tables that are in the database but they require the user to import the data from an excel file. This works fine however due to the data being imported I only require certain columns from the import, this is where I would use a query.
The data of the import will always have the same column headings. Firstname, lastname, usernumber etc..Unfortunately i'm not quite sure how I could get a script to generate a query of the selected columns after an import is completed.
I have a reasonably complex query (3 subqueries into 1 main query) which gathers data from various tables into a single dataset based on a specified date.
I now need to generate a similar dataset but across a range of dates (a month) for reporting purposes. However, I can't just adapt the query and change the parameter from a "=#<Date>#" format to a "Between #<Date1># And #<Date2>#" format
The reason being, each date has to be treated individually and has to be queried as a standalone. It's to do with the type of data I have (one-to-many relationships between tables)
So what I really need to do is run the same query multiple times, for each date in scope, then stitch all of those datasets together into one 'giant' one.
How to do that in SQL (effectively, have one query produce the dates in scope, then join that onto the other query, passing each date as the parameter - I don't even think that's possible to be honest)
The other option I can think of is to use VBA to loop through the dates in scope, then use a QueryDef object to set the parameter and read the records for each date into a Recordset object. But then I have the problem of stitching all the Recordsets together, without looping through all the fields and rows each time.
I am building a simplified re-order point system - if inventory position drops below a certain level (the yellow level is this case) one or more purchase order lines has to be created in another table.
I have one table with the following field and data:
ItemId Red Yellow Green Multiple Inventory position 0001 10 30 50 5 45 0002 5 40 47 5 23 0003 11 20 30 10 5
I would like to generate new records (in another table) based on the above fields and three records.Basically the end result should look as the following:
The logic is quite simple - if inventory position is less than the yellow value new order lines should be created in multiple qty (based on the multiple field) until the aggregated value (in table 2) is above the green value.The priotization value should be based on the start inv (in tbl 2) compared to the values in red, yellow and green in tbl 1.
- Staff Position(Unique Position Name, Description, Hierarchy) - Training (ID, Name, Description etc.)
I essentially want a table with Staff Position as the Field, and Training as the Rows. The intersecting entries/matrix will be Yes/No to say whether that staff positions requires that training.
Simple Example
..................... Worker ........ Senior ........ Principal IT Training ......YES ............. YES .............. YES Accounts ......... NO ............. YES .............. YES Management ... NO ............. NO ............... YES
I need the user to be able to add as many training entries and as many staff positions as they want. It doesn't HAVE to be that sort of format...
I'm a novice in fact this is my first serious try at creating a database. I'm setting up a database to track contracts both potential and active for marketing. This will be converted to a SQL when I have it finished. I have a customer table setup in the fashion of a contact list. Most of my forms need to access the information in it via a list box. I want to set these list boxes to generate a new record in my customer table if the name that is entered is not currently in that list. By using the event option "On not in list" I'm able to get the form for the customer table to open but when the new data is saved and the Customer form is closed the information is not available to the list box. How do I get it to update the list box without having the user start from scratch on that particular form?
I have a database that will take lots of data entered by an employee and calculate some additional data and generate quotations. Within each quote there is a possibility for 15 different metals (5 Precious Metals, and 10 Base Metals). There is also 5 fields that need to be filled out about each Metal (What the metal is, the market being used, weight, whether it is included in a different price, and the price). I currently have 75 fields to address each Metal and their 5 fields respectively. Is there a better way to Normalize this data, and accomplish what I need accomplished? I want at the form level the employee to tell the database whether they want to add a Precious Metal, or Base Metal, or Move on to other data entry.
Here is a Screenshot of the design view of one of my tables with too many fields : table screenshot1.PNG
Table called "Products" Field 1= "Product ID" which is a text field (PK) but numbers are used (ie 1 -20) Field 2= Products -showing our list of 20 products
When I enter a new product, currently I have to look in the table to find the last ID used then use the next one available. I have created a form to be used for data entry to enter new products
What I am trying to do is :- 1, have the form open at data entry level but still able to scroll and see all records and 2, Have the form auto generate the next number available. For example, I have 20 products entered so when the form opens to enter a new product, the ID is automatically at number 21.
I wondered if its because the field is a text field or I am trying to insert the code in the wrong place.
I'm not sure if Access is the right program to use for this scenario as I only know the basics on creating the database.
I want to be able to create a client database and then be able to generate a number of standard template letters at any particular time for selected clients.
I don't want a mail merge!!
Can access be used for this?
Ideally I would like to create a form for administrators to use to input new client info and update existing clients info and then just be able to click a button (or the like) to generate the standardized letter for a particular scenario.
I have a table with a field that contains IDs, e.g.
123 456 789
I would like to generate a single string from this table, seperated by commas, e.g. 123, 456, 789 and output to a field in an existing table. This will then be used in a SQL statement.I am new to VBA and don't reallly know where to start/
I have a table called bookings, three records within that table are;
arrivaldate departuredate breakfast
This Table (Bookings) is linked to the guest table via GUESTID..Assuming that a guest arrive on the 5th and leaves on the 10th, I am trying to create a breakfast voucher for the guest for each day of their stay.
So 5 vouchers, 1 each for the 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, and 10th.I have created the breakfast voucher as a report and a query to include data but I dont know how to propagate the new data to actually create the vouchers. All I can get is data for the arrival or departure fields.
I Have a table with 15000 entries. This table lists components we use. This table is used to generate queries/forms. I have been asked to add a hyperlink to this table to link to a drawing of the component. All the drawings are in PDF and in the same folder. I am looking for a way to automatically update the hyperlink fields all at once. The Hyperlink will be in the format of servershareddrawings12345.pdfwhere 12345 is the component name from the table.
But there are a few small problems with the component names. 1. If the component begins with a B- . The drawing name will be all the characters except when there is a second dash in the component. So if the component is B-12345-678 the drawing name will only be B-12345. 2. If The component begins with AB, The drawing will be the first 5 characters regardless of what follows, e.g. AB123. 3. Finally for all other components the full component name will be the drawing name.
Putting the naming to one side, how to go about auto generating the hyperlink. I have posted this in the table section, but maybe this should be in another section like queries or VBA.
In an event, groups of 2-5 persons may be tagged to this event by a randomly generated number (using autonumber).
Let's say Tom (social security number: 12345X) is tagged to events 2, 5 & 6. There are of course other persons together with Tom in the above 3 events.
If I would like to find out who are the persons who are in events which Tom had participated in, how do I find them using a query?
Currently, I'm thinking of using a searchform where it would return his "associates" if I just query using his social security number, i.e. 12345X.
i need to create a text field and button in a form that will show all the records for a particular JobNo in a report once the txt has been typed and the button is clicked, i.e if I type JobNo001 I need to to create a report showing all the information for that JobNo(but there can be multiple JobNo's).
Do i have to create a query for this. I am new to this so please be gentle
Using a table with employees, I created another with equipment that uses a lookup to assign each piece of equipment to an employee (more than 1 piece of equipment can be assigned to each employee)
I want to be able to select records using a form, either by checkbox or listbox of which employees to include in the report that shows what equipment each is assigned. The problem I am having is creating the form/code to create the and/or query to generate the report.
I am building a form that updates a query and then generates a report based on the updated query. I am having two problems;
1. I have successfully concatenated the "First Name" and "Last Name" fields in the query to appear as First space Last, but in the actual report I get a compile error. I've tried everything I can think of with no luck. This is what it looks like in VBA:
2. I am trying to figure out how to update two labels (lblDescription and lblSecondaryDescription) on my report with the information the user types in the text boxes (txtDescription and txtSecondaryDescription) on the form. I tried calling a variable for each label and setting it equal to the corresponding text box, but I didn't think it would work and I was right.
I would like to filter data from a table using a query (from an data input form). The objective is to output all results if input form field is empty and to output results higher or equal to the type in the field if field is not Null. The query code is as follows:
Okay I have a report (rptHorneOstbergQuestionnaire) that is based on a query (qryrptHorneOstbergQuestionnaire). In the report I have a total (HOTotal) which is the result of an expression created in the qry. Based on this result I would like to generate text in a text field (HOType) that is found in the same report.
Basically if the field HOTOtal shows any vaue between: 16 and 30 then I want the unbound text field to show the text Definitely evening typw and so on ...(see case statement below)
I thought I could do a case statement on report open but I am getting an error that my expression contains no value.
Here is the case statement
Private Sub Report_Open(Cancel As Integer)
Select Case Me.HOTotal
Case 16 To 30 Me.HOType.Value = "Definitely evening type" Case 31 To 41 Me.HOType.Value = "Moderately evening type" Case 42 To 58 Me.HOType.Value = "Neither type" Case 59 To 69 Me.HOType.Value = "Moderately morning type" Case Else Me.HOType.Value = "Definitely morning type"
I am create a database to track leave of my team.I have create the tracker and few reports, however now I want to create a report by applying filters in 2 places, for associate and for leave type or for associate and for joint leave or for associate and for Informed.I have SQL code which does not work. how can I select the other paramater with associate name using combox box in form.
Code:
SELECT Leave_Records.[Absent Date], Leave_Records.[Associate Name], Leave_Records.[Absent Day], Leave_Records.[Leave Availed], Leave_Records.[Joint Leave], Leave_Records.[Informed TL], Leave_Records.[Leave Type], Leave_Records.[Leave Applied], Leave_Records.Comments FROM Leave_Records WHERE (((Leave_Records.[Associate Name])=Forms!Report_Form!AssociateName) And ((Leave_Records.[Leave Type])=Forms!Report_Form!Leave_Type)) Or (((Leave_Records.[Associate Name])=Forms!Report_Form!AssociateName) And ((Leave_Records.[Joint Leave])=Forms!Report_Form!Joint_Leave)) Or (((Leave_Records.[Associate Name])=Forms!Report_Form!AssociateName) And ((Leave_Records.[Informed TL])=Forms!Report_Form!Informed));
I have a table and a simple query that pulls results from the table. Nothing too crazy. But, if I were to go in and change some of the data/values in the query results it will change the respective data in the table. I know that this cannot be right. What do I have to do to either prevent the ability to change query results and/or prevent any changes in the query from altering the original data in the table.
I then created a 2nd select query with inner joins to join both crosstab queries on similar fields (activity & projectname).
SELECT QUERY 2: projectname, activityname, employeename (totalhoursworked as value), employeename (calculatedcost as value)
It gives me this:
However, I want it like this:
Those employeename... refers to more employees being added after a period of time. Hence I want to know if I could use vba to generate a report every time a button is pressed on a form? I know how to link the form to the query.
I'm trying to track daily production at a manufacturing company running many different processes at different locations each running multiple parallel "lines." The tricky part is that the number of lines running and the shift schedules e.g. 2shifts 10hrs/day 4days/week or 3shifts 8hrs/day 5days/week change frequently for each process.
Right now I have a form for process data that specifies the schedule and number of lines running each day. Then I'm running an append query to a "production" table that generates blank production records associated with each item made in each process for the correct shift/line combinations.
Up to now I've been manually changing the date on the append query each time I run it. Then I have a seperate query for each process that pulls out the production records for each day. My problem is that the preferred interface for production data entry is a spreadsheet with the following layout:
--------DAYS LINE 1 DAYS LINE 2 SWING LINE 1 SWING LINE 2 ITEM 1 100 ITEM 2 2250 ITEM 3
which changes each time the shift/line schedule changes for each process. The only way to achieve this layout I know of is a crosstab query which isn't updateable. Ideally, each day the manager will specify the shift schedules and forms will be automatically generated with the correct structure and sent to the process supervisors. I'm open to different form layouts and even redesigning the database completely.
