I have imported several Excel files into Access to create tables in the database.
I teach online and basically I need to know how to extract certain bits of data from each table and put them together.
For example:
Table #1 is my student roster list and contains the fields: Firstname, LastName, SchoolName, and several other fields.
Table #2 is a list of schools throughout the state with fields such as: SchoolName, Registrar, ContactPerson, and so on.
There are several other tables involved but I’m trying to make this question as simple as possible and if I can get this question answered, I think I may be able to figure out the rest.
I would like to print a report out for each individual student that will include the school name from Table #1 and match it with the same school name in Table #2 and then extract the pertinent school information from Table #2 for that school.
I have more than one table with a list of schools. Should I name each field that pertains to the school name with a unique name?
To clarify….
Table#1 can have the same school name listed any number of times because some of the students attend the same school.
Table #2… Each unique school name will be listed only once.
These Excel files come to me regularly as they are updated and I am trying to find an easy way to extract the data that I need.
Can someone please tell me how to write this query?
I want to extract the date to append to a date field in a "Calls" table and the comment into a text field in the "Calls" table. Is there a way I can do this via query or code?
Code: ID studentname lectureplace lecturesubject 1 jack A Biology 2 steve A politics 3 jack B math 4 steve A math 5 jack B politics 6 joe A politics . . . . . . . . 154 Jane B Geography
We need a query to implement two criteria to extract the following records:
1-Show lectureplace A AND politics lecturesubject 2-Show only those with lectureplace B regardless of the subject
In case the query is run we will have the following result:
Code: ID studentname lectureplace lecturesubject 2 steve A politics 3 jack B math 5 jack B politics 6 joe A politics
Ok. Here's the situation. I have query setup. This query has 2 columns: 1. Agent Name 2. Sale Value
I have 2 tables. Table1: Includes Sales for this pay period only Table2: Includes all Sales From past to present.
We are setting up our system on Tiers and Each sale value is going to change. So, Here's what I need: I need to run an update query that first Looks up all the records in Table1 based on Agent Name. The field that needs to be updated is called SaleValue. It needs to be updated with what's in my Query mentioned above. Then, all the values in Table1, need to be copied (or updated) into Table2. This can be done based on the Primary Key (SaleID), which exists in both tables. So I guess we will need to run 2 separate update queries. Any ideas on how this can be done?
The Table1 holds data that is a request for a task.
ID, Request, Task_tms (the number of times the task is required to be done)
1, Make a cup of coffee,15
Table2 is my allocation of people to the tasks.
ID, Person, Task_done (the number of times this person has done the task)
1,Sally,10 1,Eddie,5
What I want to do is to limit the amounts of allocation in some way (ie in this case if I have already put 10 for Sally then I would be unable to put anymore than 5 when entering the amount for Eddie.
Additionally if I were to allocate all 15 to Sally then no additional people would be able to be allocated to this task (ID 1)
The two table are in datasheet format linked on a form.
How can i extract all the information in those tables and put all the data into one large table? I want to extract everything apart from one table?
and can I format the large table once the data have been put in i.e. insert new Columns at the start, and populate fields based on the value of other fields values?
I'm designing a database for a laboratory. There are many tables that will contain test results. They all have in common a field called ID( primary key) linked by a one to one relationship because one patient has reports in different tables. The ID is unique to each patient. For the Reports, i hit the rocks... How can i structure a report that can extract a patient's records from the different tables where they appear in the database?
Currently I have a remark field and want to just extract the amount. The data input is not in a structured manner therefore I could not use the mid function.
Example :
Remark CASH PURCHASE $50K.DEBIT 3007484701 SUB $20,000 FIRST STATE DIVIDEND AMT:$10,900(FS BRIDGE FD)NO DISC
I have a very simple question that I have not find the result or maybe I do not know what to look for! I have a query containing a field named year and one named sales, what I need is to have a single result of total sales per year. example year sales 2005 100 2005 100 2006 80 2006 70 2006 60
The result I would like to put then in a form is: total 2005 200 total 2006 210
All this by simply running a query without indicating any parameters.
OK, so i have finally got round to re-building my client's database as suggested several times by RV.
I have three main tables that I need to extract data from - tblMembers, tblModules, tblCompleteModules.
Basically its a database containing the training details of Scout Association leaders. Each Leader needs to complete 26 modules over a period of time.
tblCompleteModules contains the data for the modules that have been completed, MemberID, ModuleID Date Completed and CompletedID.
I know how I can extraxt the modules that members have completed, but how can i extract the data for the modules that have not been completed. For example I need to report on the number of people who haven't completed module number 20 for example.
I have inherited a 2003 db with unknown PIDs for the Group & User security.When trying to alter User details, I'm asked for a PID, so I'm trying to find the PID for the existing users.
I've gone to unhide the systems tables to get a dump of the data & hopefully find the PIDs but no luck so far.There is a Parent ID & if I run a query from the Users DB file, it appears as if it something like japanese writing ???
I have a word doc from which I want to import data in a Database. The word doc has a table, something like this :
Projectnumber 10700004 LSname LSTK number one POnumber 1170-LST-04 Contactname Mr. Karel van Straten Vendorname Mothercompany name S.A. Manufacturer Operating Company name Otherdata Others Mancity 46100 Hamburg Mancountry Germany Manorder 31-0111-009 Mancontact Mrs. Angela Duval Mantel 0049 2323 209 151 Manmail email@testing.de
At this stage I copy the table data and paste it into a memo field in a Dbase Query and try to manipulate the text in that query to get some of the data segregated , i.e Projectnumber : 10700004 , Mancountry : Germany , etc. However, this doesn’t work as I want.
e.g. I’m trying to get the Manmail text thru this qry : Manmail: Mid([Memofield],Len([Memofield])-InStr([Memofield]," ")) , but the output is not consistent.
Would there be a better way to get the original ( doc-table) data in the same way in my database.
Note : I could use an additional step : copy/paste to Excel and then import to Access, but that’s something I would like to avoid.
I am trying to extract data from one field and then put it into another field. I have 2 fields, Code_A and Code_B. I am trying to take the Code * data from Code_A and put it in Code_B. Any help is appreciated.
I am trying to construct a query to extract mailing addresses from a table. I have individuals entered into a table (a separate record for each person) but if they are married I want an address such as Mr and Mrs J. Doe so that only one address label is printed off so that only one letter is sent out. If one of them dies then the address should only go to the surviving party eg Mrs J.
Is it possible please to extract a tables structure and data into SQL in Access. I know how to do this in phpmyadmin (an internet based DBMS) but not so sure in Access.
What I want to do is to create an identical version of the table in SQL Server, so therefore require the structure and data in SQL format if possible.
I want to write a simple routine to enter a value into a text box, retrieve a record from a table using the value entered as a key (or display a message if it doesn't exist) and then populate a form with the other fields from that record.
So if I entered code 123 it would find the record where code = 123 and display the associated description and price for code 123.
I've created the table and the form but am struggling to do the bit that retrieves the data ! Help!
Through searching, I have seen a lot of post regarding 3rd party downloads to extract pdf data to a table, any coding or a sample database that doesnt require 3rd software?
In the end, I want to import the pdf data to the table, then attach the pdf file automatically. URL....I have a pdf form that was developed in Adobe Live Cycle. For sake of example, lets say my form object names are:
Full Name, Forename, Surname, Salutation. This data has been extracted from another database where the Surname field was not required but it is now. So i need to find a way to pull data from the salutation field into the surname field where salutation has data but surname is null. The next one when surname and salutation are null but full name has data i need to pull that across.
i cannot build a simple query and save it as reference since the number of organizations may be 25 at the minimum. this is why i want to build it on the fly, so to speak.
I need to break up part of the value in one of my fields. I can do it in Excel by identifying the position of the dash with eg. =FIND("-",D13) And then using it in a LEFT function. Or using the text to Columns wizard.
How can I do it in a query, there is no find function. If there is an equivelant what is it?
I got two tables while one table contains (sales data) and another one contains (criteria). I would like to extract sales data based on the criteria tables and export to a new table.
Which method is the best to complete this?
Criteria contains many lines like this
CustomerID, ProductID & InvoiceDt A, Guliter, 2007/10/5-2007/11/7 B, Piano, 2006/7/1-2006/12/31
I'm trying to extract invoice and payment transaction data from a very old version of quickbooks. This very old version allows for the export of customer and item lists to .iif format which I can view in Excel. However, there is no method of exporting transactions. All of my searches for how to extract the data have come up empty.
I am pretty sure that I once found a post relating to looping through the file line by line and converting the data using vba. I can't find that post anywhere either.
Any method of extracting data from a quickbook .qbw file. I'm willing to do a fair amount of manual parsing if I have to, but I need to get to the data first.
Not sure if this is possible but I am trying to extract data from a word document to set up a database.
Basically I am trying to capture data from completed forms, similar to the sample attached, the actual blank form is 20 pages long and once completed can be as many as 30 pages, or even more, although the format doesnt change (i.e. individidual cells will expand to fit the data in the cell).
I want to be able to scan through the completed forms and extract the data i.e. Full Study Title, Short Study Title, Study Type etc. into a database.
The issues: 1. Each document will have a different name but will be stored in the same location. 2. What is on page 8, for example, in one document is not necessarity going to be the same on every document (due to expanding cells) 3. Each sector is in a separate table but tables can spread across several pages. 4. Some data is stored in a checkbox format rather than text. 5. I dont want to extract all of the data, only certain sections (at least at this stage).
I am a new user to access. I would like to extract a table from a URL, it is 4 fields and has around 150 records. One of the fields is made up of png files, relatively small ones. Is it possible to extract all the text and png files straight into access without individually saving each picture and attaching it to a record?
Where the word Author= appears to extract the data between the double quotes, so in the above case I want to extract "All Saints" excluding the double quotes.And then where Title= appears extract "On & On", again excluding the double quotes.So I would end up with data in my table looking something like this
strArtist [Author] strSong [Title] strGenre [Genre] strYear [Year] All Saints On & On Pop America Venture Highway Rock 1972 Amillionsons Misty Blue Pop 2002
