Hello all,
I have a field in a database that has people's full name (e.g. Jane B. Doe). I would like to sort by their last name. Can I build a query that looks at everything after the last space in their name? Thanks in advance.

I have a datasheet on a form that is unable to show all records in the size allowed. Consequently it has a vertical scroll bar. However, the scroll bar allows scrolling to the bottom whereby there is white space almost the same size as the data records. The horizontal scroll bar does much the same.
Is it possible to just show the records and only the width of the data in them.? No extra records exist in the table to cause this.
I'm new to this but I am currently working on a DB for work. We are tracking employees that are trained by using an "X" in a Field to signify that they are in the process of being trained. Once they are trained they will enter the date it was completed. I need a query that will give me the number of "X"s and the number of dates. Currently it only gives me the total for all "X"s and dates. Is it possible to split the fields in a query and further receive the percentage of each including how many employees do not have any "X"s of dates? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I hope that this make sense.

Pretty straight forward question but I can't seem to find the answer anywhere on the net. I have a table with a text field that's values are pulled from another table via the Lookup Wizard. Everything works fine, and I now have a drop-down box that displays all of the fields I have set up with the Lookup Wizard.
But, how do I sort the records that appear in that drop-down? They are not ordered in the same way that the table they are pulled from is, nor do they seem to be ordered based on any one column.
Any help is much appreciated.
I am having a problem sorting records in a query. I have about 5, 000 entries in a table and when I build my query based on certain fields, the numbers in certain columns are not in order although I use the sorting feature. ( e.g.) I have 5 columns with numbering data contained in the columns, and I have it set up to sort in ascending order, which it did, but I noticed that the Volume # column sorts the Volume numbers differently (see example below):
V. 1
V. 10
V. 11
V. 12
then it goes back to
V. 2
V. 3
V. 4
V. 5
V. 6
V. 7
V. 8
V. 9
It looks like it sorts anything with a 1 first then the rest later. How do I fix this?
Thanks.

Thanks!
I have an ASP file that retrieves records from an Access database and displays them in the browser. The problem is that the records come out unsorted. I need to sort them by entry date. I have a field in the table called "EntryDate" that is in the format MM/DD/YYYY. Can I sort by this field? If so, what would the SQL statement be? Thank you.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to Sort records in a report by a Report total? I have a report that is created by a crosstab query that sums orders by Billing Client but the query also has a billing client qroup which can contain many Billing Clients. Since the report total (Counts) are by Billing Client I do not have the actually totals per client group in the query to sort by. I know how to do this in Crystal Reports by the report would needs to mulpiple workstation, which have the crystal reports engine but not the actually designer (In other works I don't know the code to print a crystal report from Access with only the crystal reports engine on the workstation).

Is there a way to do this?
I know you can list the way you want in a combo, but not sure how you do this in a bound textbox.
Thanks

How to sort entered records in a subform by combo box. Notice combo box has integer value not text. I want to bo sroted by text visibled ASC. The code must be in Command control SORT (See pict enclosed)
View 2 Replies View RelatedCan you have a saved (unsorted) query as a row source for a combo and then add some code to enable the combo to sort the list?
Reason is, I want three combos to use the same query for finding records in different ways, but need the query to be saved, not a query built by the query builder that access takes you into from the row source on the combo data tab?
I only need the data listed in each of the combos to be sorted by one column in each of the combos.
Have seen something about bubble sorting, but not sure if this is OTT or even could be applied to this?
FYI, this is not a cascading situation.
I'm doing a query and I want it to show records from this week only.
Is there a formula I can use in criteria?
Hi all.
I've created a database which contains information about stores. I want to have the forms automaticly sorted by the department number.
I've tried to sort the table by department, but when I try to add a department, the sorting doesn't seem to affect the form at all.
Lets say I have department 1,2,3,6,7,8 in the form, and I add department 4, it will be the last post in the form. I want it to be the fourth, and so on..
I'd apreciate some help with this :) Thanks
Here's the database (http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=12934&stc=1&d=1142018915&PHPSESSID=f730b7f11f6983965698faeacbe5a1ee)
I have a query that pulls information from two different columns in a linked table, and places them together in a single column in a new table. The expression that i use in the query is: Expr1: [ARTINAME]+[ TITLE]. I need to put a space between the two. Is there a way to put a space in between these two when written to the new table?
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi everybody,
Amongst many other things i would like to be able to see which teams in our company have access to which database. We currently use up to seven!!! different Databases which makes for tremendous fun...just kidding.
Since every Team has access to more than one Database andevery Database obviously gets used by a multitude of Teams, i thought the best way to go would be a Junction Table. Whilst building this, however, it occured to me that i could have just created fields for each Database in the Team Table which then can be ticked.
So here's my question, is it more space consuming to create a junction table, it certainly appears to be more work right now...
Thank you very much,
Dan

Hi there
I would like to know how to find out how much space a table uses within an MDB. is there a analyser of some kind available that you know of?
Thanks
I need an expression which finds the first space from the right and returns the text (variable length) to the right of it.
Ex.
AMINOPH, THEOPHY. INJ
expression should return INJ
I am trying to break out a field where city, state and zip codes have been consolidated. I want to create a field where I am able to ready the consolidated right either right or left until the first blank space. For example:
"pittsfield ma 01201"
I want to read the field to break out "pittsfield"
Thanks in advance for any help I can get on this :)

Hello Everyone :cool: ,
In access, I have a field in a table that I need to fix. The field contains a charge(money) value, with a code attached to it. For example:
[2345.0020680]---> The (2345.00) is the charage amount & the (20680) is the code.
[17580.04PPO]----> (17580.04) is Charge; (PPO) is the code.
**Every charge amount is different, and every codes length is different; so there is no consistency in this field.
I need to add a space, comma, backslash, or something two places after the decimal, to split the two. Once I do that I'll export to excel, and split the field into 2.
HELP!:confused:
Thanks in advance everyone,

Hey all,
I got a massive lump of WORD documents with Avery Mail label tables -- each avery mail label template/table has a mailing address. This how these people store their data. :mad::confused::mad:
So I went through and over a couple days transfered all 458 records to an excel spreadsheet for easy importing to my access mailing database. Problem is that I forgot to clean up a couple of the fields and now I have all these values with unnecessary spaces as the first or last characters for a lot of values.
My question:
Could anyone help me remove the first and/or last character of these values if the character is " "? Would it be easier to do this in excel and just re-import?
Hi!
I have a field that has to be 20 Characters long. Most of the time data for this field is less than 20 characters, so the remaining has to be filled with spaces to make it 20. e.g. if there is a record xyz1234567, then the rest of the record should have 10 spaces like xyz1234567ssssssssss, meaning if i click on this record then the cursor should not blink after 7 but after the spaces. Hope I am making sense.
Thanks for any input.
