String Concatenation

Sep 14, 2007

In the table, i already had a few columns:

string1 string2 string3
001 1 1.5
001 2 6.4

I'd like to add a new column and concatenate the strings in previous columns with additional characters:

string1 string2 string3 string4
001 1 1.5 c-001-b01_1_5x
001 2 6.4 c-001-b02_6_4x
002 3 7 c-002-b03_7x

Is there a good way to do this? Thanks in advance.

String Concatenation Into A Textbox

Dec 13, 2005

This really is more of a VB than an Access question, but I need it answered, and I don't know a good VB forum so....

I have a text box that I'm trying to add text to, I have a loop, and every time through the loop it's supposed to concatenate new text into the text box by appending it to the end. I can't seem to be able to find a way to do this. I can't use the <&> operator, and VB doesn't have a <+=> operator (I wish I could do this in C/C++, but oh well). Any ideas? Or do I have to set the existing text to a string, concatenate the new text onto that, and then set it to the textbox?

Concatenation

Dec 20, 2005

Hi,

Just wondered if someone could help me with this prob?

The following text appears in a text box on a report

=[HirerCurrHouseNo] & " " & [HirerCurrAddress1] & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & [HirerCurrAddress2] & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & [HirerCurrTown] & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & [HirerCurrPostcode]

My prob is that if say "Address line2" is blank, I get horrible blank line in address (which looks rubbish when pirnting a letter!). What I would really like to do is move the lines up so they show as a proper address..

eg
Mr Joe Bloggs
29 The Street
Anytown
HD11AG

Not

Mr Joe Bloggs
29 The Street

Anytown
HD11AG
Thanks - And Merry Xmas!

Please Help With Concatenation Query

Mar 8, 2006

I have a table that I need to query that looks something like this:

ID Type Product ID
123 Health 323
123 Health 424
123 Dental 424
124 Health 323
125 Dental 323

What I need to see is something like this:

ID Type Product ID
123 Health 323 + 424
123 Dental 424
124 Health 323
125 Dental 323

In other words, I need to have the Product ID field concatenate for like ID and Type. I know it would likely involve writing some code but I am a total beginner in that respect and I don't know where to even begin. I could really use some help. Of course I need this as soon as possible! :(

To make matters worse (well, maybe it does), I am using Access 97.

Thanks so much!!!

Concatenation Frustration!

Jul 26, 2007

Hey everyone,
Well i've searched, and have been trying to use 'fConcatenateFldGroupBy' in a query in order to perform the following combining of data with a criteria requirement...

All data is in one table: (frequently re-imported, so no relationships)
Obviously data needs to be stored more efficiently, but I have no control over the imported data structure. Here is what I'm after:

Table structure:
ID - Name - Status - Comments
1120 - One - Pass - uniquecomment1
1120 - One - Fail - uniquecomment2
1120 - One - WIP - uniquecomment3
345 - Two - Pass - uniquecomment5
345 - Two - WIP - uniquecomment6

Need a query to format data as:

ID - Name - Status - Comments
1120 - One - Fail - uniquecomment1, 2, 3...
345 - Two - WIP - uniquecomment5, 6..

As you can see comments need to be concatenated with commas seperating them.
As for the Status determination, it needs to be determined for the ID based on certain conditions. If at least 1 is fail, all fail. Iff all pass, all pass. If no fails and 1 wip, WIP, etc.

I have wasted too many hours trying to figure this out on my own, so I'm seeking your help! Any input would be appreciated. Thank you.

Aggragate Concatenation

Aug 22, 2006

I have some data and I want produce a summary report. The trouble is that I need to combine F2 in to one value. AggOfF2 is produced by taking the distinct values for F2 in the group, and concatenating them together with a "/" seperating each element. I don't believe there is a built in function to do what I want, but can I create a function in VB? If so, how?

SOURCE
F1 F2 AMT
1 A 1
1 A 1
1 B 1
2 C 1
3 D 1

SELECT F1, AggFunc(F2) AS AggOfF2, SUM(AMT) as SumOfAmt
FROM SOURCE GROUP BY F1;

SUMMARY
F1 AggOfF2 SumOfAMT
1 A/B 3
2 C 1
3 D 1

Thanks,
David

Aug 19, 2005

I have a fax number field iwhich has a mask. +(000)-00-000-000 in a table of many records.

I need a query that can Update this Fax_Number field where the length of the string is less than 7 digits.
Some thing like UPDATE Contacts SET Contacts.Fax_Number = ""
WHERE ((Len("Fax_Number")>"6"));

How can i do this. Thanks.

How To Split Up This String

Sep 15, 2005

I have a string:

Cars > Car Import > Car Import: Car Import

The first section is the Category, the second is the Product, the third is the SubProduct and the fourth is the keyword.

What is the best way to split each of these words into its own variable? I think I can do the first and end one but not the Car Import and Car Import one.

Thanks,

Dave

Need Help With String Formatting

Dec 15, 2005

Hey everyone, I need some help with formatting a string for use with the DoCmd.RunSQL() method. I can't figure out how the hell VB deals with escape characters for the purpse of variables inside strings. I have this line right now.

strSQL = "INSERT INTO OS (OS) VALUES(" + OS.Value + ")"

This is supposed to insert one row into the "OS" Table, in the "OS" field. In my form there is a textbox called "OS" and I'm trying to insert that value into the DB table.

Two things.
1) Yes, I know, I have a lot of things named "OS"
2) Yes, I know I don't need to use a string here, but I'm just presenting this is an abbreviated example, in my full program I do in fact need a string.
