I have to get the Top 5 for each Col, grouped by group, but all in one table. What I did was split Col1 to one query with a return of 5. And also did that with Col2. But now I have to join them, and only a few records pop up, those which have the same group name, all others were excluded...what can I do?
I have a client database that has recently had multiple duplicate entries. I need to reduce or negate this erroneous activity. I have a client table where I record amongst others, the following;
key [christian_name] [family_name] [dob] ......
I believe that to prevent duplicate entrie via form I have created an additional field called "unique" given it as a unique index which I want to have populated with the joined fields first_name & last_name & dob (IE johndoe01/01/90), and then as user enters a new client it wont allow a duplicate.
However I need to fill all the existing customers (3600+) with the relevant joined existing data. If I create an expression I can cajoin the fields in a select query but when I try to make an update query the same syntax comes up with empty fields.
select query sql that worked to show field ...
SELECT divers.christian_name, divers.family_name, divers.dob, [christian_name] & [family_name] & [dob] AS Expr1 FROM divers;
update query that was empty ..
UPDATE divers SET divers.[unique] = [christian_name] & [family_name] & [dob];
Linked as indicated, (all from tblSurvey to those matching tblJobs) with criteria, WHERE jobcode is null Ie. an unmatched query between tblSurvey and tblJobs.
Now I want to delete those from the survey where there is no jobs.
But when I change my select query to a delete query, I get the error: Cannot delete from specified tables
My SQL (access generated) looks like this:
DELETE tblSurveys.*, tblJobs.JobCode FROM tblSurvey LEFT JOIN tblJobs ON (tblSurveys.Grade = tblJobs.JobGrade) AND (tblSurveys.PayType = tblJobs.JobPayType) AND (tblSurveys.Survey = tblJobs.JobSurvey) WHERE (((tblJobs.JobCode) Is Null));
That first line looks wrong...
Anyway, if someone can help me to delete these I will be forever grateful.
The way I understand it, a delete query should look more simple... ie delete * from tblName where (and type the intricate stuff here)
Thanks in advance Reenen
(BTW: I posted this on Ozgrid as well, but they are bigger on Excel there, and response times are better here. Apologies in advance)
Hi, I have two tables A and B that I joined using a LEFT JOIN. I know that some rows in table B will not be joined. How do I count how many will not be joined and how do I return those rows? Thanks ClaudiaM
If I use order by on a query that has two linked tables I keep getting an error: This is the query SELECT d.PDetailsID, d.po_id, d.po_uniqid, d.job_id, d.p_qnty, d.p_desc, d.p_unitp, d.p_units, d.p_extend, d.p_qos, d.p_grec, d.p_done, d.cocreq, d.est_id, d.line, d.class, d.selected, d.itemid, d.category, d.GroupID, d.p_qosextended, d.late, d.lastsavedby, d.matid, d.customer, SQLACCESS.tblctpur_d.jobid, d.DTime, d.Notes, d.DescDetails, h.pur_ddue FROM SQLACCESS.tblctpur_h as h INNER JOIN SQLACCESS.tblctpur_d as d ON h.pur_id = d.po_id ORDER BY d.line
The error is : The colum prefix d does not match with a table or alias used in the query
What I'm trying to accomplish is probably really simple that I just can't get it to work. I have set up the relationship properly, I think. Here is what it looks like:
Each project will have three different member roles. Here is what I'm trying to get from my db:
myQuery(tblProjects.*, tblMembers.MemberID As Role1ID, tblMembers.MemberName As Role1, tblMembers.MemberID As Role2ID, tblMembers.MemberName As Role2, tblMembers.MemberID As Role3ID, tblMembers.MemberName As Role3)
I need Role1ID = Role1 If when tblProjMemb.RoleID = 1. I need to create a column for each of the three member roles and have the name of that person in that column.
I'm not sure how to accomplish this. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks!
I have two tables in my database Agents Zip Codes (linked table)
If I create a query and then a form off the query that includes fields from both tables - Access will not let me add new records.
Ultimatley what I am looking to do is have a zip code field in the Agents table that I fill in and then it will automatically look at the zip codes table and then fill in the zip code, county, & state in a different area of the form.
I tried using fields from both tables and tried a query using fields from both tables and it will not let me add new records. I have a relationship between the fields in both tables.
I have problem with pdf-ing a report that has record source coming from a query namely from the two tables joined based on the same of several fields (foreign keys).
I have PDF coding that would turn Access report to PDF report. It has no problem when the report's record source is from one table only.
Just wonder if anyone who might have a similar issue would like to share with me some help. Is it normal that PDF doesn't work if the report comes from joined tables in Access?
I have created a query that show all the records form Material Estimation table that the job number matches in the Production Table, that the AssDate is between the frm_Export_Data dates.
This the SQL view of the query.
DELETE [Material Estimation].*, Production.[AssDate] FROM [Material Estimation] INNER JOIN Production ON [Material Estimation].[Job Number] = Production.[Job #] WHERE (((Production.[AssDate]) Between [Forms]![frm_Export_Data]![FromDate] And [Forms]![frm_Export_Data]![ToDate]));
I want to delete all the records in the Material Estimation table that show up in this query.
I am getting information on products stored in a query. I want that query to check a couple tables to see if an item is linked through all of them. If it is not listed in the last table (catalog) I want it to be shown.
Code:Catalog tableVolume Prefixprodno Price15 - CE 0218 9.9915 - CE 0722 3.7215 - CF 0218 12.3615 - CF 0091 14.00Source TableSource MediaCM70904 15 - CE
Code:Batches QueryCustomer Number Prefixprodno Source716933 0218 CM70904716933 0408 CM70904
This is the Select Statement I'm using, which gets the 0218 but not the 0408 I want
Code:SELECT (fieldnames......)FROM [Batches] INNER JOIN ([Source] INNER JOIN [Catalog] ON [Source].[Media] = [Catalog].Volume) ON ([Batches].Source = [Source].[Source]) AND ([Batches].Prefixprodno IN ([Catalog].Prefixprodno))WHERE [Batches].[Customer Number]=716933;
If I do NOT IN I get both 0218 and 0408. I just want 0408. I'm sorry if this seems confusing but any help would be amazing at this point =/
I can not, or not allowed to enter data in fields in a query built from three tables that are jointed by a common field with the same name. The parent table is linked to another Access data base as is one child table the other is local data. Also, I am not able to view the child table data when viewing the parent table.
I have a query I'm creating that is using a joined view. I'm joining two tables and whereas the first contains unique data to each field the second contans class information so for example while all users are unique many may be assigned to the same class. When i use the join it therefore dupliactes all the class information in the query.
how can i set up the query so that the class information is only output once and not duplicated along with a user every time ?
I have at least 3 relates tables in my access database.the first(sessions) table stores session detailes like id,date,time
The second one (tblemployees) contains our employees details like name, idp ,the third (attreq) relates the first table to second it stores ids of sessions and ids of personals that which determine which personals have attended in special sessions.
Now,my problem is that I want when a personnel log in and opens "confirmed session"form ,the access check and open records that this person have attended. How can I do it?
I have made a crosstab query that is sporatically making duplicate counts. I'd like to know how to fix the problem, but more importantly - I'd like to know why and how my query is giving me these results so I can avoid making this same mistake again.
The relationship is set up so that all records from one table are returned, with only matching records from the other - so no problems that way as far as I can see. This is my crosstab query that is giving some counts of the same record as being matched sometimes two, three, or even four times:
TRANSFORM Count([Testing DB].[DB_ID]) AS [CountOfDB_ID]
SELECT [Testing DB].State, [Location].[North], Count([Testing DB].[DB_ID]) AS [Total Of DB_ID]
FROM [Testing DB] LEFT JOIN [Location] ON [Testing DB].[Address] = [Location].Address
WHERE (([Testing DB].[Window Length]) Is Not Null))
GROUP BY [Testing DB].State, [Location].[Size]
ORDER BY [Testing DB].State, [Location].[Size]
PIVOT Format([Date],"mmm-yyyy");
When I do a simple query for a list of the records being counted by this query, I can see the duplicate entries and can eliminate them simply by adding "Distinct" to the select statement - but I haven't had any luck adding any kind of distinction with this crosstab that will do the same.
How can I eliminate duplicate counts of records in my crosstab? If anyone has a suggestion, it would be much appreciated.
I have a query, that I have a criteria to show appointments in the past (< Date()) but one result doesn't show up although the appointment end date is a past date, it only shows up when I fill in a field that is in another table that is joined and part of the query. But there's no criteria there for it to not be null.
I have a Table with 6 fields, 2 are named Initial and Surname. Is it at all possible to have a combo box on a form with these to fields "joined" with the alphabetical order on the Surname. I understand that using a query will not work as the result is based on an expression
I have an Access Table with about 28,000 Automobile dealerships across the country shown. I've joined a new/small phone contact table to this to keep up with our phone contacts with the dealership and followup efforts. When I search/filter on the dealership table all is fine. However when I search/filter on the phone contact table with a few test entries, I get nothing at all. I supposed that after joining the tables, I'd be able to do a search on the field named follow up date and find/filter today's date or other dates and locate which dealerships to contact when the correct date arrives. But nothing.
Im trying to work on an db in Access 2007 that was migrated from Access 2003 (in fact its been migrated several times starting from Access 97). It executes and runs with no problems in both versions. The problem is when trying to open some queries (not all) - Access is unable to open the query in design mode and gives me this error :
" is not a valid name. Make sure that it does not include invalid characters or punctuation and that it is not too long.
However, as I cant open it - I cant check it. Im pretty sure none of the fields have invalid characters (they do have spaces) and Im not sure how long is too long....
We currently manually run 5 different queries then copy and paste this data into 5 separate tabs on 1 workbook, I'm trying to automate some of this process if possible.
I am trying to use the 'transferspreadsheet' action within a macro to run a query and post it into a template excel file, using this code:
Trasfer Type Export Spreadsheet Type Excel 8-10 Table Name (query Name) FIle Name (FIle location) Has field names No Range Blank ---- This does seem to work and puts the data on a new tab on the specified workbook.
However I have a few questions:
1. Can you specify which query gets put onto which tab in excel? The tabs have different fixed names.
2. Can you specify which Cell the data gets pasted into to? As each tab has a set of headers and titles which need to remain.i.e would need to get query 1 to start in cell A4.
3. How would you expand the above out so that it runs all 5 queries, would you just add in multiple transfer spreadsheet actions in the same macro?
I have 3 cross tab queries that are completely identical with the exception of the field that they pivot. Each field is searching for the same values just in different columns, with the end goal being to get the sum of the values for each pivoted column. I'm wondering rather than having 3 almost identical queries is there a way to use a crosstab to sum the values from each of the three fields rather that having 3 queries which then have to be aggregated in a fourth?
QUERY1
Code: TRANSFORM IIf(Count(PT_LEVEL.UNIT) Is Null,0,Count(PT_LEVEL.UNIT)) AS CountOfUNIT SELECT PT_LEVEL.INF_YEAR, PT_LEVEL.INF_MONTH, PT_LEVEL.UNIT
I have a crosstab queries which uses the date query parameters. However, when I go to my Export command (code is below), it ask me to enter the date parameters (start date and end date) twice. What do I have to do so that the system will ask me to enter once only?
Code: On Error GoTo Err_cmdTest_Click 'Must 1st set a Reference to the Microsoft Office XX.X Object Library Dim dlgOpen As FileDialog Dim strExportPath As String Const conOBJECT_TO_EXPORT As String = "qryEXPORT"
I have 3 queries named Mech Final Equipment 3 Mth, Mech Final Equipment 6 Mth, and Mech Historical Final Equipment.They all have two fields-Final equipment and Sum of Sum of Down (calculating the number of minutes each piece of equipment was down in the time period selected).
My ultimate goal is to join the three queries to display a pivot chart that uses the Final Equipment as the category field and 3 Mth, 6Mth, and Historical as seperate data fields.What I have is a join query (Which I have named Mech Final Equipment H63 Joined)
Using this SQL:
Code:
SELECT DISTINCTROW [Mech Final Equipment 3 Mth].[Final Equipment], Sum([Mech Final Equipment 3 Mth].[Sum Of Down]) AS Duration FROM [Mech Final Equipment 3 Mth] GROUP BY [Mech Final Equipment 3 Mth].[Final Equipment] UNION
[code]...
Which returns a table that looks like this:
Final Equipment, Duration
Ancillary Equipment, 225 Ancillary Equipment, 401 Ancillary Equipment, 1787 Brush Unit , 1252 Brush Unit , 2519 Brush Unit , 8004
And so on.What I need the table to look like is this
Final Equipment, 3 Mth, 6 Mth, Historical
Ancillary Equipment, 225, 401, 1787 Brush Unit, 1252, 2519, 8004
And so on, like a cross tab.I tried to do a crosstab query but I don't have enough fields.
I am trying to add calculations to queries based on columns in the query... it seems to randomly expect 'Expression' or 'Group by' as column types, and Im having to create 3 sets of queries following on from each other to de-dupe data and allow filters on calculated values.
Also I've got a function which turns a date into a quarterly cohort, e.g. Oct 2013 -> 20134. I use ot on a lot of dates. I created a VBA function, CohortQ used as follows in queries:
Code: Function CohortQ(InputDate As Date) As Integer If InputDate = 0 Then CohortQ = 0 Exit Function End If
[Code] .....
But when I run it on a date field, it gives me a data mismatch error. I can't step through as it's working on 600K rows. If I put the function into the query,
