Hi All,
I need to make a search criteria within the same field,
for example here 'Demo' should selected from 'xxx' to 'xxx' number.
Thanks for reading, any suggestion would be appreciated
good day :-)
1. I created a form with some search-fields which are related to a query. Then I added a Subform in which I put some more Search criteria (So that I can easily hide and unhide those additional searchfields). It sounds strange but is necessary ;-). Now I related those searchfields in the subform to the same query. When I run that query a window pops up that I should put in a value in all those searchfields which are in the subform. But I told Access that it should display all rows, if there is no value in those searchfields. Just as I did it with the Searchcriteria in the Main form. Do I have to do something special, when I have a query which is related to two Forms?
2. I want a searchfield to search in three different columns. Usually the value will just be found in one of those columns. As the Table I search is very long and has many searchfields and multiple of those will relate to more than one column, is there an easy way to do it in VBA? As I did it by using the "or" field when designing a query, but this seems very slow and unstable.
I want to ba able to search for only part of the field in a query. I want to run a reort from a query where the user only needs to enter part of the information from a product list ie the items listed may be as lisetd as make model in the same field. the user won't be able to get to the query to alter the criteria. i have tried:
Like "*" & [Enter Product Name] & Like "*" Which I found on a previous post but this returns a syntax error, and highlights the second Like
I need to be able to print records for certain students showing their best and worst results for each exercise. Must be printed in portrait A4. Each student must be on a new page. I am trying to create a query which will find the results for studentID AA111 and DS1119. For each student:
- Find the best and worst RepsOrTime for each exercise
- Display studentID, StudentSurname, StudentForename, ExerciseID, Description, Best and worst RepsOrTime
- Name best records "best"
- Name worst records "worst"
Please see attached document.
I can find the result for one student id but when i try putting both student ids in it returns no result, also, I do not know how to rename best records best and worst records worst.For this i have two headings shown as RepsOrTime and it shows the max and min value for each exercise.
I am creating a a text box where the user enters a text then clicks an option from the option that is used as the criteria for the search e.g. Last Name, Phone , address then a command button wil run a query.

I have a search query (query by form) which is picking up keywords from a form and displaying matching results.
I want to add a tick box to the form, and if this tick box is ticked, I want the search to only include results which have a certain field NOT blank.
ie.
frmSearch will have tick box named "Website"
If "Website" is ticked on the form and the QBF run, the query will only show those records which have information in the field "Website Address" in the table tblPublication.
If the "Website" tick box it NOT ticked, the query will show all records, regardless of having information in the field "website address" or not.
can i do this in the criteria of the query?
I don't really want to do it by having a seperate query which is run by a seperate "Search" button on the form - this would be possible by having a 2nd search button (titled "Search for results with website") run a different query which has the critera that the field "Website Address" is not null.
I dont really want to have a seperate button and query as it makes it a bit messy - would rather the one query look up if the tick box, and if "ticked" then display only those with content in "website address" field, and if not ticked, display all regardless of content of field "website address".
any ideas?!

Wonder if you guys can help me with something. I have a table with about 1200 guests, what I want to do is to search the table base on different criteria (or combination of criteria), namely phone #, name, street name, and postal code. Not everyone has all this info, and their names aren't separted into proper lastname or firstnames (old data).
What I want to do is to be able to type in a person's first name, last name, or both (an maybe other info if the first search wasn't successful).

What should I do to implement this? I was thinking of running 4 different queries, and interesect them into the final query. What do you think?
Hi
I have the date on my table as 01/02/2006, there are others like this, i'm wondering how i can search for the whole month, something like **/02/2006. i have tried that way and didn;t work.
Any ideas??
Thanks
Hi guys,
Cant seem to work this one out. I have quite a complex search form. The underlying query displays the results in a list box on the same form.
So far I have used the following expression for all the fields on my form (whether text or integer values):
Like "*" & [Forms]![Frm_FrmSearch]![AssetName] & "*"
This appeared to work correctly. However, now my Asset Management System is storing a number of Equipment Type's. As one of the query criteria is Equipment Type ID it means that selecting PC (1) also displays the details for Printer (11), Scanner (12) etc......
I know why it does this (because these numbers start with a 1 and I am using a like expression). However I cannot seem to get it working.
The equipment type value is present in every record so I dont think I can use =FormValue or FormValue Is Null. I did try:
=[Forms]![Frm_FrmSearch]![EquipmentType] Or
Like "*" & [Forms]![Frm_FrmSearch]![EquipmentType] & "*"
but it seemed to skip the first parameter and still displayed printers etc. as before.
Any ideas?
Sorry if this is an easy question, but I've been racking my brain trying to get this one.
I have a reference table of sales agents and assigned territories. Ex -
Agent Territory
Tom Smith IN, MI, TN, AR
Deb Jones IA, KS, NE, MO
Now I want to assign agents to a list of prospects based on their state id. However, I can't just join the state field from the prospects table to this reference table. How can I get this to work? Any help is greatly appreciated.
How can I search a department field by the start of the data in it...
For example, I have departments Purchasing, and Purchase..i want to search "Pur" and get both.
**but, i dont want to get any other matches with the letter "pur" unless they start the field.
Hello,
I have a feeling this may be easier than I expect however I am at a standstill.
I have a Query that is called from an unbound list box when data is typed into one or all three unbound txtBoxes "txtLastName" ,"txtFirstName", and "txtVIN" the query populates the listbox almost as it should..
The purpose is to identify duplicate entries based on three critera, last name, first name and VIN with the VIN bieng an execption meaning that if the VIN does not match I still want the matched first and last names to remain in view..
When I open the form where the list and text boxes are all records show in the listbox and as I begin to type the last name all records that do not match that critera are dropped, the same goes for the first name this works great. Once I get to the VIN however if there is no match I loose all three and the listbox is empty.
Is there a way to maintain matched names in the list view eventhough there is no match for the VIN?
Below is the code I am using in the Query Design, it is the same for all three fields Lastname, FirstName and VIN.
Like "*" & [Forms]![frm NewOrderVINVerify]![VinToFindFen] & "*"
Thanks!

I have a form with drop down boxes that list 3 related fields and I have a search button that will requery based on the the input from these boxes. These boxes are all prepopulated with the data and I want to be able to select something from Box1 and then based off Box1 change whats populated in Box2 and Box3. Any idea's???
I already have a query setup like this to requery a query I make:
( I have a button that initiates the requery based off what input is given)
Box1:
IIf(IsNull([Forms]![FormName]![Combo1]),[Field1],[Forms]![FormName]![Combo1])
Box2:
IIf(IsNull([Forms]![FormName]![Combo2]),[Field2],[Forms]![FormName]![Combo2])
Box3:
IIf(IsNull([Forms]![FormName]![Combo3]),[Field3],[Forms]![FormName]![Combo3])
Problem with this is that is does not requery correctly and it only filters on one of the criteria ( Field1) and spits out all records for the other two?
So I figured since I already populate the drop downs with the records why not just change the contents of the drop downs?
If anyone can give me some insight it would be much appreciated?
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
I have a form on which I have about 6 combo-boxes and a set of 3 radio buttons.
I'm to the point that all the querys that fill these combo-boxes are in place.
What I want now is a search button that updates a datagrid under it when clicked. The query in this datagrid needs to be parameterised with the selected values in the comboboxes or radio buttons.
It should be possible to only select one combobox before pressing update.
At this point I placed a subform in the form to bind this query to. ( the datagrid I need).
Is a subform the correct object for this or are there other possibilities?
For some boxes only a line to the where clausule of the SQL statement needs to be added. For some other (one) and the radio buttons a join needs to be made with another table.
So I will have to build my sql statement dynamicaly in some vba code, run it when the search button is clicked and refresh the datagrid.
Does ab has a sample database in which such a search form is being used?
I must have downloaded like 10 sample DB's now but nothing I can use...
all help or advise greetly appreciated.
Hello,
I have been trying to produce a front end for a multi criteria search. I have used one of the sample databases from the site and amended the code as necessary, but obviously not correctly. I can't get it to show me the records based on my search criteria.
I would be grateful if somebody could have a look and let me know what I've done wrong (cut down DB attached). If I can crack this I want to do another multicriteria search for other parameters.
One other question - is it possible to take those filtered records and dump them into a report? For example, say I select one parameter and want tpo print all records associated with that parameter?
Thanks
I am using the below code to open a form from a search form. This code works well because I could leave a search field blank, and the code would treat the blank search fields as a wild card search. Here is the problem; I want to be able to search a range of ages in addition to lastname and first name. I added two fields (“AgeStart”, “AgeEnd”) in the search form and added ([age]>= '" & Me.AgeStart & "*'and and [age]<= '" & Me.AgeEnd & "*'") to the end of the stLinkCriteria. This addition works well if there is an age range is entered into the search fields. If nothing is entered into the age range fields of the search form, access does not treat the empty age range fields as wild card like the other fields. I would like Access to treat the empty age range fields as a wild cards search. Is this possible, and if so, how would I go about doing this? Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Dim stDocName As String
Dim stLinkCriteria As String
stDocName = "Personnel_frm"
stLinkCriteria = "[last]like '" & Me.lastname & "*' and [first]like '" & Me.firstname & "*'"
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, acNormal, stLinkCriteria
Hi all:)
Has anyone ever come across an example of a form where you can carry out a multi criteria search which not only displays the results on a subform but when you select an item from that subform the details can be displayed in text boxes etc on the main form.
I have tediously searched this forum and the web but all search examples only display on a subform only, is it even possible if so has anyone found any examples or how would I go about achieving this
Thanks Jackie
Hi all,
May I know what is the easiest way to search for records using 2 fields wich are not primary keys? and then return a boolean value whether it is found or not...
These 2 fields are of integer type.
Recordset.Find can only find record with one field and not two.
Is there any codes available for this?
Thaks a million in advance
Hi,
Is there a way to search for queries that use specific criteria?
Let's say I have 60 queries in total, but only 35 of them use the "Province" field as criteria. The criteria is set to retrieve all records that are in Province AB, SK, ON.
Suddenly we need to also include Province MB to all of these 35 queries.
Is there a way to identify these 35 queries (all the queries use criteria in the "Province" field). These are the queries that would need to be modified to include "MB" as part of the criteria.
I hope my explanation is clear.
Thanks upfront for any suggestions!

I have a multivalue criteria inside a listbox that I need to use to filter several data out of a table by using a query. The multivalue textfield is the 3rd column of the listbox (eg. John Jonson,Tom Boost,Kim Moore). When I select a row inside the listbox, I want all the adressess of the people that are mentioned in the 3rd column when I click on a button.
How do I make this criteria for a query to get the information I wanted?
Hi all
I have a query linked to a report that prints a worksheet specific to a individual work item. This report/query picks up the Work_ID value on a form. I have 2 other forms displaying the same work with different amounts of detail. Rather than create a new report/query to run from each form, I am trying to use the one query/report from each form.
The problem is that I cannot get Access to recognise the Work_ID value from the other forms. I have tried the following:
In the Work_ID criteria field building an SQL statement as below
[Forms]![frmVCRUpdate]![Work_ID] Or [Forms]![frmVCRShort]![Work_ID] Or [Forms]![frmVCRLong]![Work_ID] - This does not work, it keeps asking for the frmVCRUpdate Work_ID value when I try to run the query from the other forms
Adding 2 extra Work_ID Values to the query and on the 2nd and 3rd criteria lines specifying that it look for the Work_ID value from the other forms but I get the error above.
Any suggestions on how I can make this work would be appreciated, I'm not sure what else to do.

Hi there i am building a search form and I want it to be able to display results from multiple criteria......Currently I am able to display results in a listbox, whenever the user types in a id number in a text box. So if a user types 63 in the ID text box the record with and ID of 63 will appear in the list box or it will wont if the record does not exist..... What i want to do is be able to search on multiple criteria. Sof if a user wants to search based on a name instead of a id number they woudl be able to. What I am struggling to grasp is how to invoke a OR in the criteria box. So that the list box will display results based on either the ID text box OR the name text box.
Any thoughts?
I'm setting up a customer database. I'm used to using ASP to query and manipulate data within databases, but this time the database is to run on friends work laptop and he wants it accessed directly using access.
Basically, in the sql statement to get it to search for a whole string i simply put
WHERE tblCustomers.CompanyName=[Enter Company Name]
However, he wants to be able to just enter the first few letters of the company name, and get results based on that. Is this possible from a query or within a form?
I did also try an OnUpdate which read as follows:
ACCESS 2010, I have a from and to date in a query. How do I get these two dates to show in the report header ?
