Automatic Count Of Field Contents
Jan 11, 2007
My company requires a query to aid distribution, however I am experiencing some problems implementing the system.
We have purchased a large database of addresses and need to be able to query a town/street to find out how many houses are in that street.
I have the query and form set up to display the street/town and list of house numbers when searched for, however the houses are grouped by postcode rather than street, with multiple house numbers in the same field (see example).
Street
Main Avenue
POSTCODE
HG23 0DF
Houses
89;91;93
POSTCODE
HG23 1DF
Houses 95;97;98
----
Basically, I need a total of how many individual houses there are in a street, regardless of postcode. In this case, it should treat the ";"s as dividers and return the result of '6'. Or in some cases ignore the semicolons as some fields look like ";;;;;;;;13". It should then add both the total for one postcode to the other postcode to display a complete total of houses in one road.
Can anyone make any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Matt

Hi,
I'm making a form where the contents of a field is determined on the contents of another field in another form. I thought an IIF function would work, but when I tried it the contents says #NAME.
I put it in the control source.
IIF([Forms]![Frm_NewBusiness]![Page4]![Child51]="NTU",NewBusiness_Date_Issued="NTU",NewBusiness_Date_Issued)
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Ben

the project I have comprises four seperate databases all linked but kept apart for logic and data reasons. I must have rapidly approaching 300k records across all of them. As a result I am trying to extract on a regular basis (monthly) the dimensions of each database. Specifically, I want to be able to produce for each database;The number of tables (I have two types data and reference, it would be nice to be able to split the result).The number of fields per table.The number of records per tableI am not really interested at this point about other database objects, such as queries or reports.

I am trying create some code that checks if the contents of the status field in a table is "Authorised" where the ID = something specific for multiple records. If all records witht the specific ID are "Authorised" Then generate a new record in another table. Where to start, perhaps a Dlookup?

I have a report that has multiple fields - 3 of which matter for this discussion -
1.) employee
2.) employer
3.) rateofpay
The employer field contains 1 of 2 options. For the sake of this conversation, lets call it ABC123 and XYZ123
I need to be able to calculate the average rate of pay for ABC123 company, and exclude the rate of pay for XYZ123 company in my report.
I am calculating this in a section footer.

I am trying to perform a search function query in access but am having trouble. I have two tables. One table has a column in which I need to search the contents of this field by referencing data in another field/table. I am able to write the query searching the data manually (not referencing the other table) but can't seem to get the query right when referencing the other table!
this query works =
SELECT *
FROM Sample_Data
WHERE (((Sample_Data.[Affected_Frequencies]) Like "*451.425*" Or (Sample_Data.[Affected_Frequencies]) Like "*451.400*"));
but, i put together a frequency table (Table name = Frequencies) and the column within that I am searching for is called Frequency. im trying to reference Frequencies.Frequency using a LIKE statement.

Is there a way to make the value of one field change dynamically based on the values in other fields on the form?
Here's the general idea. I have two tables.
RecordTable
--------------
SiteID, etc.
SiteTable
-------------
SiteID, SiteBlurb
I want have a form, where you can change the SiteID value in RecordTable, and have the SiteBlurb change (i.e. the form pulls the information from SiteTable) dynamically once you have entered the new value.

is there an alternative to making a field blank, other than my old trusty <Me.Field1 =""> ... ?
(my use of the < and > are purely for demonstration purposes, and do NOT get used in code)
I'd like some fields to be native, virgin, blank, et cetera... I do find sometimes I have to overly complicate a VBA statement by putting.. <If IsNull(Me.Field1) or Me.Field1 = "" then> because I have made that field value = "" to blank it out.

HI
Is there a way that i can split the fields based on the delimiter that i will set in a query?...
for example : 088H-FJAKSDF-SAFN-F
in that case additional four columns will be added becuase it will be separated by a dash (-)
thanks so much for your help.

Here is one that I could use some help with.
I have an Updates field in all of my tables. It, of course, holds my audit trail. Im tryiing to figure out a way that I could run a single command and clear the contents of all the Updates fields on all the tables in my db. Ideally, I'd like to auto generate a report for all the update fields on all the tables, then do a purge.
Any ideas?

I'm an excel user and in using excel I can take two fields and combine their data in one field. I've got about 6 database files with anywhere form 1000 to 3000 records that have already been prepared and imported into access database files .mdb and I realize that the firstname lastname fields need to also be combined into a contact field with both names. In Excel it's easy in access I'm a little lost. I was looking to an update query however I can't find instructions on what I'm trying to do.

tblAppointment will take register appointments.
tblTreatment contains Cost for different AppointmentTypes.
The above two tables are linked as 1-M relationship (1 Treatment can have Many Appointments)
Entering data in the tblAppointment - AppointmentType and AppointmentCost are the fields in tblAppointment. AppointmentType a drop down box, so that a specific AppointmentType can be selected.
Problem: Now depending on the AppointmentType selected the AppointmentCost field should automatically display the correct Cost.
Can anyone help please?
Thanks

I want to print text based upon the content of the field but need more than the IIF statement. For example, if the field contains an "A" I want to print "Active", "C" I want to print "Closed", "N" I want to print "New", etc.
Thanks in advance for any help. You guys have always had an answer in the past!

I am trying to view the contents of a text field in a form. The field can only be a limited size in the form, but I want to store a lot of text in the field and have it visible without having to enter the field and use the arrow keys to view the contents. Is it possible to programme a function that shows the contents of a field when I roll the mouse over it or something like that? The "Control Tip Text" is the principal of what I am trying to do except this gives a fixed value. When used in web page development I think this function is refered to as "Alt tag"

Hi,
I have some queries that I created in 97 and convert to Access 2000.
However, when I go to query DESIGN view, I would like to see all the contents of long functions (iif) that I wrote for some fields as a result of running the query, but each field only shows a portion of it (as if it was truncated). I also use the "Zoom..." of that field or Shift+F2, still the same thing, only shows portion of it, the last portion was truncated.
Do any of you know HOW to show all, so I can check and revise if I need to, pllllllease.
Thank so much,

I am in the process of revamping an old database. I have a main table that currently has two fields "Name" and "Job" but will have more. I have another table with the same fields. I want to use as a lookup to populate the main table with a user form from the second table. I can populate the "Name" field using a combo box, but my problem is how to autopopulate the "Job" field. E.g. If the user selects Mr Smith from the "Name" drop down list, the corresponding "Job" populates the second field.

I have a table tblBookings.
In this table it has a bookingID, CustomerID and some other none relevant details.
The CustomerID comes from table tblCustomer. i.e a customerID must exist in the customer table to be allowed in the bookings table tblBookings
A customer can exist in tblCustomer without existing in the booking table.
I am trying to write a query that will list each and every customer ID in the tblCustomer and count the number of bookings that that customer has (even if it is zero).
I have a query that will count the bookings if they exist in the booking table and display the number of times that a customer appears in the bookings table.
SELECT tblBookings.CustomerID, Count(tblBookings.CustomerID) AS NoOfBookings
FROM tblBookings
GROUP BY tblBookings.CustomerID;
How do I create a query that will do this but list all customers even if they don't exist in the bookings table (but obviously occur in the customers table)
I am trying to create a similar query where all bookings per hotel are listed even if no bookings are made for that hotel. I am guessing the answer is the same as above.
The Ritz. Bookings 0
The Hilton. Bookings 3
The Carlton. Bookings 0
The Lowry. Bookings 2
For every hotel.
That kind of thing.
If you need more information please shout.

Running 2007
I never ran into this problem before.
I have a qry, with showing totals (group by). One of the fields is called comments, which is a memo field. I am only seeing partial comments.
When I redesign the query and take out the "totals", I see the entire comments.
Is there a fix to this?

Hello,
I have two tables which contain the following fields (simplified);
Table 1:
ID
Startdate
Enddate
Table 2:
ID
Unitdate
Treatment
The tables are related (one-to-many) through the ID field.
In operation, the user first enters the Startdate and an Enddate for a patients' hospital stay in Table 1. Following this, the user enters the Startdate again in the Unitdate field in Table 2 and selects a Treatment from a drop-down list. After this, the user enters the following in the Unitdate field and selects a treatment. This is repeated in consecutive order until the Enddate is reached.
The end result looks like this;
Table 1:
ID Startdate Enddate
123456 01/01/2005 04/01/2005
Table 2:
ID Unitdate Treatment
123456 01/01/2005 Ventilation
123456 02/01/2005 Ventilation
123456 03/01/2005 Haemofiltration
123456 04/01/2005 Ventilation
Does anyone know if there is any way to restrict the Unitdate field in Table 2 to only allow dates to be entered that are between the Startdate and Enddate fields in Table 1? Ideally, I would like the Unitdate to populate automatically with the dates, starting with the Startdate value and ending with the Enddate value and filling in all the intermediate dates. Also I would like to make sure that there is no way of having duplicate dates in the Unitdate field.
If anyone can help, I would be extremely grateful.
Best wishes
Russell

I've got some code that loops through a record and copies the non-null fields to another record. This is the partial code:
For Each fld In tdf.Fields
If Not IsNull(Forms!contact_lookup![Contact_sub subform1].Form(fld.NAME)) Then
strSql = "UPDATE tbl1 SET tbl1.[" & fld.NAME & "] = '" & Forms!contact_lookup![Contact_sub subform1].Form(fld.NAME) & "' " & _
"WHERE tbl1.[FC_APN] = '" & Me.txtApn & "';"
DoCmd.RunSQL strSql
End If
Next fld
This works fine until it encounters a field whose contents has a reserved character, like a single quote (" ' ") in it, for example, "What's the what." At that point the SQL thinks there's a " ' " missing in the statement, and I get an error 3075 (syntax error: missing operator).

Imagine that you see a column of values and then a total at the bottom. The only issue is that the total value does not appear until you click on it.
Any setting that would cause a total value in a footer section to not appear automatically?
Behavior is noticed on reports as well as subreports. An image is attached.. Imagine the $37,000,000 simply not appearing until it is clicked with the mouse.

I am very new to access less than 1 week since i started trying to build an horse racing database, i am trying to link data from 2 different sources via the horses name however one source displays this with the horses country of origin in parenthesis foe example FRANKEL(GB) and the other source displays the name as just FRANKEL, to be honest i haven't yet tried the link but guess it will fail.
I am therefore looking to get rid of the parentheses and their contents from an access table field and create another field without them.
In Excel i use the formula B1:
=TRIM(REPLACE(A1,FIND("(",A1&"("),FIND(")",A1&")")-(FIND("(",A1&"(")-1),"")) and that works fine.
I guessed the solution for Access would be newname:
TRIM(REPLACE([frhorse.NAME],FIND("(",[frhorse.NAME]&"("),FIND(")",[frhorse.NAME]&")")-(FIND("(",[frhorse.NAME]&"(")-1),""))
But this doesn't work as in returns undefined function "FIND" in expression error.
