I'm a beginner when it comes to Access. Right now I'm trying to create a movie database and need help.
I want to be able to search for a title that contains a specific word. For example, I have a movie called "the cube", right now i can only find the movie by typing the full or a part of the correct sequence of the title. For example I can find the movie when typing "the" or "the cube" but not when typing only "cube". This is my problem.
Right now my query looks like this:
SELECT Movies.Title FROM Movies WHERE Movies.Title Like Forms!frm_search_title!search & "*";
I have used Excel for many years and used the if formula. I have just started using access and need a little help. I have a table the has 20 fields. I am only concerned with about 8 of these fields for a report. I have a field named completed in this field I put a "x" if the job is complete. I would like to create a report that shows me all active jobs. Everything that does not have an "x" in complete field. Can somebody either direct my to the forums I should be in or possible give me the correct coding. Thanks for your help in advance.
G'day all, I'm a novice to Access. I'm trying to setup an adhoc query, whereby a user can select all the records for a particular month. I've tried using ([month]) in the criteria row but I get an error message??? :confused: :confused:
with id_sort = 1 -> SUM(nr_ap) = 2+5+1 = 8 with id_sort = 2 -> SUM(nr_ap) = 3+4+3 = 10 ************************************************* Table SORT: id_sort (primary key) value
Rec: id_sort, value ------------------ rec: 1, 80 rec: 2, 200
********************************************** I need do create a QUERY that for all records in SORT table, it will show only for user 'A', the rescords as in the result shown below.
NOTE: xxxx = (valueSUM(nr_ap))*nr_ap
RESULT EXPECTED ------------------ id_sort, name, ap, value, xxxx
1 A 2 80 20 (808)*2 = 20 2 A 3 200 60 (20010)*3 = 60
I've posted this on another forum, but I'm not getting any help on it. Let me know if I need to explain it in more detail.
I have one table containing a list of addresses:
Address 1301 Main St.
I have another table containing names :
Name 1 John
I have yet another table containing names:
Name 2 Chris
The primary key for the address table matches up with the primary keys in the name tables. I need to write a query that will pair the addresses in the address table with the names from each of the name tables. It should look like this:
Address..................Name 1301 Main St. .........John 1301 Main St. .........Chris
Is there a relatively easy way to output the results of a query to an XML file?
I have the file writer set up more or less: Code: Dim intFn As Integer Dim strFilePath As String Dim strOutBuf As String strFilePath = "c: emp est.xml" intFn = FreeFile Open strFilePath For Binary Access Write As #intFn strOutBuf = "<?xml version=" & Chr(34) & "1.0" & Chr(34) & " standalone=" _ & Chr(34) & "yes" & Chr(34) & "?>" & vbCrLf strOutBuf = strOutBuf & "<file>" & vbCrLf 'DO FOR EACH LOOP HERE strOutBuf = strOutBuf & "</file>" Put #intFn, , strOutBuf Close #intFn If this were a C or JAVA application, I would just write a "for each" statement similar to as follows:
Code:For Each (Row in Query){ strOutBuf = strOutBuf & "<entry>" & vbCrLf For Each (Field in Row){ strOutBuf = strOutBuf & "<" & (Column Name) & ">" & (Value) _ & "</" & (Column Name) + ">" & vbCrLf } strOutBuf = strOutBuf & "</entry>" & vbCrLf} What commands would I use in Access to get each separate row in a query? And then to get each field in that row? And how about the column names for the XML tags?
I'm currently working through developing my first database.
Basically, what I would like is for a query to run from a command button.
The query should look at a field in a table (a yes/no field) and report back the ones that have been filled in.
I know how to run the query from the access 'Query' window, BUT, I would like this query to run from a click of a command button on a form.
I've looked it up in a book, which explains about SQL, and didn't really understand it. I've also searched on here, but people talk about Macro's, and I don't know anything about them.
I want to have code that disables fields based on the value of the contents of one of the fields. I wrote this code which goes on and on but it doesn't work. Can someone help?
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
Dim Item_Number As String
If Me.Item_Number = "300123C" Then Me.Batch_Lot_Number.Enabled = False Me.Issue_Date.Enabled = False Me.Production_to_BPT.Enabled = True
I don't normally work in access so I am sure I am asking a really easy question.
I have a table that is connected to a form where users enter survey data. Currently they have a drop down form to mark the responses to the survey as "Fully Completed", "Partly Completed", etc.
On the table I want to add the text "Awaiting Completion" to all those without any entry so that we can find out how many are left to do.
I can filter the table to give me the correct records, and assumed I could paste the text directly into the column (as with Excel).
Can anyone please let me know how to update the column easily.
I have 2 Access databases setup, each containing 1 table. Let's call them A and B. These two tables contain some of the same fields.
Table A is used for collecting new client registration info through our website and gets updated by SQL.
Table B is on a different server and is used for company newsletter mailings.
Table A is the one which is automatically being updated so I don't need to do anything with that table. Also, some fields in Table A are auto-incrementing numbers so we can differentiate a clients interest and provide a more informative newsletter for them specifically on their selected interest.
Whenever an entry in certain fields of Table A is made, I would like the same fields of Table B to be updated with that same information automatically. For example...
Client subscribes to our newsletter on our site and selects their interests, the email field now contains the subscribers email address and the various 'interest' fields contain a '1' telling us they are interested in that particular area of our business. As this takes place on Table A, it needs to be also replicated to Table B.
The Salesledger has fields TransactionID and ProductID
The Salesledger is linked to the Products table by the ProductID field
The SalesLedger is linked to the Voucher Table by the TransactionID field
How do I produce a query to list all the items in the Salesledger but if there is a Product in the Products Table matching the ProductID the Product details, and if there is a TransactronID in the Voucher Table list the VoucherRef.
At the moment, it only shows transactions if there is a corrosponding TransactionID in the Vouchers Table
Probably not explaned this at all well. I will try to elborate if required.
I have a list in Xcel of approximately 1100 client #'s that I have to match to our master list of 10000's.
I can create a query to pull these Clients, but I'd like it to only pull the 1100 requested. Is there a way to import an excel file to bump up against a query so that it only pulls the requested clients?
IE do I have to create a table and bring that data in then use them both in the query?
Sorry if this is a simple question, I'm just being thrown into the fire and have very little access background.
To start: Running Office 20003. I have created a survey with Frontpages wizard. Basically It has a topic and the end user rates that topic on a scale of one to five like so:
1. Work Environment a. I enjoy my work place. 12345 b. I think my office has a good reputation. 12345
1-5 are radial buttons. It takes the users input and stores it in an access database as im sure you all are aware. Looks kinda like this:
1a 1b 2a etc. 3 5 1
What i would like to do is this: When the users are done submitting i would like to go back and take results. I.e. we had this many users select option 3 for question 1a and we had _ number of users select option 2 for 1a, etc. The thing is i was wondering if there was a way to create a query for it. I know i could just put =1 or =2 but that would require running 5 queries on each question.... not fun. Anyway, any help would be appreciated.

Hi all. I need to know if there is a way to show the last entry for a record.

I need to generate a query that pulls all the employees that ordered paper trays for their workstation. The quantity of paper trays they ordered is the data for the field "paper trays".

Hey, I need to print a report on 11x17 paper. I cant seem to find in the page setup where I could change it to this. Is there a manual way to change it to 11x17. I've checked all the network printers around here under the page setup and none give me the option for 11x17, but I know you can print this size on our printers. Thanks.
