Criteria: Searching From Beginning

Jul 1, 2005

Hello,

Im having trouble with Criteria for a query. I have my criteria like this:
Like "*" & [Forms]![NewSearch]![txtSearch2] & "*"

The only problem is, if im trying to search for a last name such as "Aber" the search results come up with not only Aber but also anything that contains Aber, such as the last name Singaber.

How can I make the criteria search from the beginning of the Name, and not anywhere in between?


Please help, going to drive myself nuts :)


Thanks in advance for any help you may be able to provide.

Searching Using Multiple Criteria

Feb 23, 2005

I have a button with this code attached

Dim SearchStr2 As String
SearchStr = "[PROTECHNIC_NUMBER] = " & "'" & Forms![FRMPATIENT]![Frm_ICP_Select].Form![Protechnic_Number] & "'" _
And "[ICP_Code]" = Forms![FRMPATIENT]![Frm_ICP_Select].Form![ICP_Code]
DoCmd.OpenForm "FRMASSESMENTHEAD", acNormal
Forms!FRMASSESMENTHEAD.Filter = SearchStr
Forms!FRMASSESMENTHEAD.FilterOn = True

If the button is clicked it should open the FRMASSESMENTHEAD form where the Protechnic Number (which is a text field) and the ICP Code(which is numeric) is the same as the ones on the current subform.

It works great if just using one of the criteria but when i put the and command in and then add the second criteria i get an erroer message saying

Run-time error '13':

Type mismatch

hope this makes sense and can anyone help :confused:

Searching On Multiple Criteria Problem

Sep 19, 2007

i have created a form for my database where i intend to give the user the option of searhing my more than one criteria but not all.
i have used a system of combo boxes for the user to enter thier choises leaving the combobox blank for any criteria they dont know.
the user then clicks th button to open the query

in the query i have set the criteria for the fields to equall the related combo bo in the form.

however if the comboboy is left blank (0 or null) the query looks for a record where that field is also null. as a result it wont return any records.

an example

on the table tblFault there is the record

FaultID; 7
Computer id; 2
Name; c
Room-ID; it1
Date Of Fault; 05/06/07

on the form the user enters the following values into the combobox

FaultID; 7
ComputerID;
Nme; c
Room-ID; it1
Date of Fault 05/06/07

the query returns no records insead of the record above.
this is because it is looking for a record in the table where the Computer-ID field contains a null value.

is ther a way to ignore the chriteria if the combobox contains a null value????

i have tried to use vb to convert all null values to be "Like "*"" but it keeps returning a type missmatch error but still changes to combo box value to ; Like .

Select Statement Searching On Date Criteria

Feb 23, 2006

Hello everyone! :)

I've been banging my head of a brick wall with this one. Its probably straight forward... but I can't see the solution! A problem shared is a problem halved... or so they say!

Ok I have this table called CustomerComments. In it are the following columns

CustID
Comment
CommentDate

For each custID I want the most recent commentdate and its matching comment from that row... (there can be multilple comments recorded per custID)

Problem is I can't seem to get this to work.. instead its returning all rows. I have run a query that will sort and group this list. The top line of the grouping gives the most recent comment and commentdate per customer.

Does anyone know how I could just get that top line per custID rather than all rows returned?

Thanks for reading this... hope it makes sense!

Modules & VBA :: Searching For Record Using Multiple Criteria

Aug 2, 2013

I have a form where a user enters data. One of the things the user enters is a "lot size". I need this lot size field to be checked against a query in the database to determine if the quantity is acceptable or not.

The order number in this query is in certain cases missing a leading zero, so I need to truncate this from the user entered form field.Finally I want the user to be notified if they are trying to exceed the lot size in the query.My code is as follows:

Code:
Public Function RemoveFirstChar(RemFstChar As String) As String
Dim TempString As String
TempString = RemFstChar
If Left(RemFstChar, 1) = "0" Then
If Len(RemFstChar) > 1 Then
TempString = Right(RemFstChar, Len(RemFstChar) - 1)
End If
End If

[code]....

Modules & VBA :: Searching For A Variable With Date Criteria In Table

Jun 14, 2013

I'm trying to search for a variable (varCod) in a table(SerialNumberCustomer) but I want to only store the returned variable in an array if its shipDate is between 9/30/2001 and 10/1/2012

this is what my code looks like so far:

Set rst = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset( _
"Select * from SerialNumberCustomer WHERE SerialCardId = " & varCod & " AND (ShipDate BETWEEN #09/30/2001# AND #10/01/2012#) ")

The line of code works and it returns all of the values in SerialCardId where it's = to varCode but it doesn't go through with the shipDate requirement. It's instead returning all of the dates with the found value.

Beginning A Database

Apr 25, 2005

Hi,

I would like to setup a MS ACCESS database for the 174 styles that we sell. I would like the user to see the item ref, manufacturer, where the goods are packaged, bulk price, packaging costs, total costs of that item (=bulk + packaging costs), M.O.Q, carton quantity, Contact, Email address, Supplier Address.

Could someone suggest a checklist or alternatively a set of procedures i would have to follow to setup this database? I would like the user to be able to type in the item reference so that it brings up all the information stated above, which would be stored in the data table.Is this possible?

I have the the information stated above in an excel spreadsheet format if I link this to an access related database can i setup a search mechanism, if yes please advise how?

I am not so bothered about the way it looks at the moment I would just love to see it up and running.

Please advise the best way for me to approach this? If someone has a "readme" file which would help me set this up, It would most appreciated????

Thanks in advance ;o)

Delete <space> If At Beginning Or End Of Value?

Dec 4, 2007

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?

Cursor To Beginning / End Of A Field

May 26, 2006

I have done a half-dozen searches and only gotten 1 option.

There is a simple way to have the cursor at the beginning or end of a field when it arrives in a new field.

I saw the VBA code aboyt setting the length. There is an easier, simpler way to set it so that you don't have to apply the vba code to every single indiviual field.

I remember learning about it here on this forum, but now can't find it.

Can anyone remember how to do this?

Thanks in advance,

Beginning ASP With A Microsoft Database

Feb 9, 2005

Hey guys,

This is my first post here so please forgive if it seems rather elementary.

Here's the deal, I am a web developer finishing up my senior year of college. I have a client that is using a Microsoft Access database on a web site and the site is built with ASP. I have never really used these two items together before and need to write some scripts to do simple database functions.

I have a lot of experience with PHP and MySQL databases and SQL query statements but I haven't figured out the syntax to go with Access and ASP.

Is there a good beginner's site that covers this? I have scoured the web and found nothing useful.

Also, the following line of code gives me the following error:

objConn.execute("UPDATE Sheet1 SET Salutation='Jose' WHERE Salutation='Mike'")

gives the error

"
Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80004005'

Operation must use an updateable query.

/tester/tester.asp, line 22"


That is line 22. I am connected okay because I can do select statements. The table name and field name is correct as well but I don't know why I get this error.


Thanks

Show Zero At Beginning Of Number

Dec 19, 2005

I have created a table that contains banking info. I have a field for Transaction #; the Transaction # is always 4 digits. Sometimes that number begins with a 0. When I enter the 0 at the beginning, Access will not show it. I've tried setting the Input Mask (tried #### and 0000) but that still didn't work. The field type needs to be number so that my report will sort properly. How do I get the 0 at the beginning to show?

Thanks for any help you can provide!

Modules & VBA :: Search That Works Unless Beginning With I

Jul 8, 2013

I have a simple bit of code that searches for a [User Name] field the basic idea is I place a field called "search" on a form and set its on change to

Private Sub Search_Change()
Search.SetFocus
strtarget = Search.Text
If strtarget < "a" Then strtarget = "a"
[User Name].SetFocus
DoCmd.FindRecord strtarget, acStart, False, acSearchAll, False, acCurrent, True
Search.SetFocus
Search.SelStart = 100
End Sub

it takes the text entered in the search field and calls it Strtarget then resets focus on the field I want eg [user name] once the search has done it resets the focus on the search field so you can carry on typing this works very well unless the search string starts with a letter I.

Insert Date At Beginning Of Text Field

Mar 14, 2006

I have a text field called Notes - where we will add notes about the particular job. What I want to do is have it a locked field with a button 'Add Notes'. When clicked it will insert the date and the user name of the person and then let them type the notes. When they move to the next record - I want that field to be locked again.

I've got some of it down but still not right. I can get it so it inserts the date but it overwrites what is already there. How can I get it to just add the data - not overwrite? And I can't get it to lock when they move to the next record.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Jason

General :: Missing Zeros At Beginning Of Zip Code

Jul 31, 2013

I have a accdb pointed at Sql Server 2012 via ODBC pushing text from a text box back to a Sql server's column that is a nvarchar(10) to store zip codes.

Edit: I confirmed that the accdb's linked table has a datatype of text for the zip code column.

Oddly, the Access form's textbox is sending back the text, but stripping out the preceeding zero in the zip code - almost like when excel (shudder) strips the preceeding zeros away from SSNs and Zipcodes - treating them like a number - and not text.

How do I stop this?

The form object is a text box, and the sql server backend doesn't mind the preceeding zero. When I manually set the value to = '01111' using sql server management studio, the value is accepted - and then later viewable (with the zero) when using the accdb's form...

This leads me to believe the form is stripping away the zero when inserting the record. The add records button uses the following to insert the records:

Code:
Private Sub btnAddDioOffice_Click()
Dim strSQL As String
If ListBoxDios.Value <> "" And txtDioOffName.Value <> "" Then

[Code].....

Forms :: How To Know If A Button Was Pressed At Beginning Of Field AfterUpdate

Aug 8, 2013

Here is my problem

In namefield_AfterUpdate, I check for duplicate name entries and notify the user if any are found - they are prompted as to whether the duplicate was accidental or intentional and continue working. This works fine for normal circumstances.

However, if the user updates namefield so that the value is a duplicate of an existing name in the database, but then presses Cancel (or Delete), then the namefield_AfterUpdate is fired and what button they pressed. The button Click code does not run first.

How can I tell if the user updated the name, but then realized they didn't want to save, and then clicked 'Cancel' (or any button) and the code should really skip the duplicate check validations/messages?

Queries :: How To Insert Data In Text Field At The Beginning

I created an update query to a text field in a table. However, it inserts the data at the end of the string and I need to insert it at the beginning of the string that already exists. How do I move it to the front instead of the end?

This works but puts it at the end:
