I have a table of products and a table of orders
Each product requires multiple processes to complete
Can I make a query that will lookup the products in the orders table and show a list of all the processes that need to be done to complete all the products on order?
The bit I dont get is how can a query return multiple rows for each product?
For each record in my database, there are observation periods which are recorded in the format dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm:ss, titles as follows
1st Obs Start
1st Obs End
2nd Obs Start
2nd Obs End
3rd Obs Start
3rd Obs End.
I have been asked to create a query that will quickly show how many obervation periods commenced in a particular month. What I am trying to do is create a column that will be named Obs Start, and another, Obs End. For each record ID, this would then show as follows:
ID......Obs Start.............Obs End........
1....[1st Obs Start].....[1st Obs End]....
1....[2nd Obs Start]....[2nd Obs End]....
2....[1st Obs Start].....[1st Obs End]....
2....[2nd Obs Start]....[2nd Obs End]....
2....[3rd Obs Start].....[3rd Obs End]....
3....[1st Obs Start].....[1st Obs End]....
4....[1st Obs Start].....[1st Obs End]....
etc.
I could then quickly count how many obs periods started within the desired month.
In a situation where I imported an excel file with so many columns and split them into two temp tables and they are linked using a key.
the data has a fixed part lets say
Field1....Field2.....Filed3.....Field4...then Field5.....Field6.....Field7....Field8 is the same data range as Field9...Field10...Field11...Field12. I would want to split this data into multiple rows like this
Field 1 Field2 Field3 Field4 Field5 Field6 Field7 Field8
Field 1 Field2 Field3 Field4 Field9 field10 field11 field12 and so own...
What is the best approach?
I want to count based on 1 (same) field from each of two tables, based on if ID is in "X".
select a.groupid, count(a.id), count(b.id)
from ta a, tb b
where value in ('a','b','c')
group by a.groupid
Thats sort of the psuedocode but Im not getting the right results.
Any help would be appreciated.
Hello everybody....
I was given a task by my boss to create an appraisal system for our department here in one of the local schools in the Philippines.
Anyway, what I created first a form from which all subjects being offered will be displayed. I did this by having a main form (bind to personal info table) and a subform that displays all the subjects (bind to subjects table). Then, the user will simply click on the appropriate rows bearings the subejct that the students wish to enrolled and when the save button is click, such will be saved into the enrol table.
My questions is, what control will I use to allow me to select multiple rows? and how will I be able to save selected rows into the enrol table?
Thanks in advance and more power...

I'm trying to insert multiple rows into a table at once, but I'm having problems.
I've tried a syntax like this:
INSERT INTO [TABLE] ( [FIELD1], [FIELD2], [FIELD3] ) VALUES
(( '1', 'A', '1' ),( '2', 'B', '2' ));
..but with no success.
On a site I even found this other way, but with no success either...
INSERT INTO [TABLE]
SELECT '1', 'A', '1'
UNION ALL
SELECT '2', 'B', '2';
Is it possible to insert multiple rows and I'm just missing the syntax, or is it not possible with Access?
I want to use a form that will put info from different drop down fields into the same column of a table.
Example:
(The information of the drop down boxes comes from table TopicNames)
Form: Caller
topic 1 topic 2 topic 3
wheelchair dancing Alzheimers behavior
to table "Topics"
wheelchair dancing
Alzheimers
Behavior
When I select the first topic the others change to the same
topic 1 topic 2 topic 3
wheelchair dancing wheelchair dancing wheelchair dancing
What do I need to do to make the form accept different input?
Could somebody please help me! I am new to access and trying to create a database that brings together information from a number of different sources, into one large database.
I need to import a large amount of data from another access table and I would like to just cut and paste it into my table.
BUT, I can’t figure out how to add multiple rows at once to my existing table. The data that I am importing contains about 6,000 rows and 4 columns. Can anybody tell me how I can do this without having to manually create 6,000 rows, one at a time? I really do not want to do that. Thank you for your help.
I am trying to insert multiple rows to a table using the query
insert into rvp (rvp, rvp_name, controller_id)
values (1200, 'rvp1', 10), (1201, 'rvp2', 10)
But I am getting an error "Missing semicolon( at the end of SQL statement" and placing a semicolon at the end isn't helping either. I can insert a single row so column type or primary key isn't a problem.
Here's the table structure,
rvp - number (pk)
rvp_name - text
controller_id - number
Can someone please help me out.
Is there a way to select several rows of records in a datasheet view of a table and delete all of the selected records?
Every time I try to delete more than one record at a time, I get the following message: "The Micorsoft Jet database engine stopped the process because you and another user are attempting to change the same data at the same time."
Then it will let me delete one record out of the selection.
I am the only one in that particular table at the time I am trying to delete the record.
Thanks in advance for your help...

Hello:
I'm new to Access but not SQL, and am having difficulty coming up with a solution to the following problem:
I have one table for all Strings used in all other tables (to make Internationalization easier). The fields are: zId, zType, and zString. zId is an AutoNumber field. zType is a number which defines what type of string it is ( Item Name, Person Name, etc. ). zString is a text field with the actual text string (can be empty).
I have another table for Items, which have (among other things) Names (field name= zName). zName is actually a lookup into the Strings table and stores just the ID.
I want to create a form for people to enter a new Item. When creating a new item using this form, they will have to give it a Name, which will need to add a new entry into the Strings table with the appropriate type (ie, Item Name).
So, my question is "How to do the following..."
* on my form to enter Item Data, when a user goes to create a new Item, I must first create a new entry in the Strings table with the correct value for zType. Then, I must get the value for zId for this new entry and assign it to the zName field in the Items table for the new record that I am creating.
Any help is appreciated.

Hello,
I am trying to find a way to combine multiple rows into one (field). I have 2 tables. One table is data the other table is notes. The notes table has a new record created for each new note. Both tables have the Account Number and and Sub Account Number. I am linking the two tables on these account numbers with a left join normally. There can be records in the data table and no records in the notes table. I guess what I want is a query or sql statement i can use in vba that will display all the data from the data table and all the notes from the notes table in on field.
This data is used in a large report. Right now I have the data table set to the report by itself and code on the report to pull the notes from the notes table using a ADO recordset with a do while that just adds each note to a single variable. This works fine and does the job. The only problem is the time it takes to run the report now. If the report has 1000 records with notes on 90% of them and each of those has multiple notes that recordset code has to run thu ALOT. I use to have all the notes just compile to one field in the data table and the report ran very fast that way. I had to change this since I need it this way as to filter notes by time and archive them after a period.
I have read thru so many posts and see lots of code functions to do this but its just the same thing I already have with the recordset code building the combined field. Any other way to do what I am trying? I think I have just been over thinking this stuff at this point an maybe a fresh set of eyes will help. Below are some simple table layouts for the 2.
**Account Number and Sub ID fields in both tables are not unquie.
Data Table: (this table has alot more data but this gives you the idea.)
Account_NUM - Sub_ID - Data1
1234 | 3 | 123 N Inc.
1234 | 3 | 666 DRN
4567 | 4 | 543 S Way.
7890 | 5 | zzz ABC
Notes Table: (Yes the notes field is a MEMO field)
Account_Num - Sub_ID - Notes
1234 | 3 | notes1
1234 | 3 | notes2
1234 | 3 | notes3
The output I am trying to Get:
Account_Num - Sub_ID - Data1 - Notes
1234 | 3 | 123 N Inc. | notes1 notes2 notes3
1234 | 3 | 666 DRN | notes1 notes2 notes3
4567 | 4 | 543 S Way. | NULL
7890 | 5 | zzz ABC | NULL
Thank you for any advice or thoughts.

I am trying to concatenate multiple rows into one record. I googled it and found many functions in VBA that do the job. However my problem is that my query will be linked directly to Excel file and then I get an error message saying that Excel could not recognise this function. I could potentially insert data into new table and link that table to Excel but I need to avoid end-user exposure to Access as much as possible.
So I am desperately trying to find a way of doing this without VBA code.
Example of data:
Customer Name |Order Number
Smith |O101
Brown |O102
Smith |O103
Green |O104
Brown |O105
I am trying to achieve below:
Customer Name |Order Number
Smith |O101, O103
Brown |O102, O105
Green |O104
I have a table where and account could have multiple rows with different data like Applied_Date and Trans_Code, and AMOUNT. The AMOUNT in two of the rows will be a positive and a negative and will be zero each other out. I am trying to create a query that will only return the the rows that do not offset each other. Here is an example of my table:
ACCOUNT CODE APPLIED_DATE AMOUNT
292020 M 5/11/2012 ($33.95)
292020 11 5/14/2012 $33.95
292020 A 5/30/2012 ($33.95)
the assignment is to delete rows in a table that consist of employee ids 202 - 205
I input the following code:
delete from sec0412_foods
where employee_id between '202'
and '205';
And then I come across this error:
Where am I making a mistake?

I have created a database to track requisitions of Office Supplies. I have table full of the requisitions which contains multiple rows for each item we have in the store and the quantity requisition on each occasion.
What I want is a query that will calculate the total quantity of each item requisitioned in a month. Is there an easy way to do this??
Hello All,
I am trying to figure out the best was to combine fields from multiple rows into one row & field.
Example: I have a table that contains footnotes and products. With a simple query I would get the following 3 rows:
Product........................................... .......Footnote
V.I. Capital Appreciation Fund.................3
V.I. Capital Appreciation Fund.................5
V.I. Capital Appreciation Fund.................1
What I want is one row and the 3 footnotes combines into one field:
Product........................................... .......Footnote
V.I. Capital Appreciation Fund.................3, 5 ,1
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have one table, I want to update multiple fields in that Table with values.Currently I have on update query for each update.So for exampleRows: Commercial Quotes, Cover Notes, Personal QuotesWill have the values: Yes, No, Yes in them.I need to update those fields, if they say Yes to Commercial Quotes, Cover Notes or Personal Quotes depending on the field obviously. And blank them out if it says No.Currently I have 30+ different queries I have to click individually one after the other to update each row. I was wondering if theres a quicker way of doing this all in one hit.I have a tiny bit of SQL knowledge.So one of the queries I've figured out I've converted to SQL but again it only updates one instance...UPDATE Enabler_Data SET Enabler_Data.[Commercial Quotes] = "Commercial Quotes" WHERE (((Enabler_Data.[Commercial Quotes]) = "YES"));I tried whacking an OR replacing the ; and repeating that statment replacing Commercial Quotes with Cover Notes but it errored out on me.This is where I get completely stuck and my meagre knowledge fails me so any help would be useful.Thanks in advanceMatt

I'm very new to Access , but I need to do this and I can't figure it out. I have a form that looks like this :
http://img64.imageshack.us/img64/5566/formemail4qz.jpg (http://imageshack.us)
I'm trying to add up all the emails in a single string , but I can't access the records one after the other. The best I can do is display the currently selected record's adress ( The one with the black arrow in front ) . I tried browsing through the Fieldname.Value propertie ( in this case Me.Courriel.Value ) . I though I could cycle through all the Controls in the form , but Me.Controls.Count returns 3 , so I figured all the records must've been embedded into one control. Can anyone help me :( ?
(Sorry if this is a documented question , I've tried searching but couldn't find anything )
I have three tables, with the following data (fields separated by "-" here):
Unit - Customer Number - Customer Name - Type of A/R - Total A/R
Unit - Customer Number - Customer Name - Type of A/R - Total Overdue
Unit - Customer Number - Customer Name - Type of A/R - > 90 Day Balance
I would like to combine these tables into one table with the following field names:
Unit - Customer Number - Customer Name - Type of A/R - Balance
When I append the data, it comes out like this:
Unit - Customer Number - Customer Name - Type of A/R - Total A/R - Type of A/R - Total Overdue - Type of A/R - > 90 Day Balance
I would like this new table to include all rows from the original tables, sandwiched on top of each other. As far as I can work it, the Append Query only adds the data as add'l columns; not as add'l rows. I tried changing the field names entirely, so that the final field in each table is called "Balance." However, I still get the same result as above - the columns are added, instead of rows. I swear there's a way to do this, I just can't remember it!
I am designing a bead ornament database for my mom to track inventory of beads, inventory of finished ornaments and cost/pricing. I have a table that joins the Item and bead part with the quantity of each bead part needed, it has the following fields: ItemMatlID, ItemID, BeadPartID, QtySo I have multiple rows of ItemIDs for all the BeadPartID & Qtys.Now I need a query with 1 line per Item and all BeadParts and their quantities. However, I need the BeadPart to be a row data and not a column heading. So a crosstab is out, I believe since it wants to make the BeadPart the column heading and not data in the query.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have been struggling with combining multiple rows into one row for an order summary report.
Specifically, I have three tables (Products, Orders, and OrderDetails)
Products
=======
ProductID = AutoNumber
ProductName = String
Orders
======
OrderID = AutoNumber
OrderDate = Date/Time
OrderInfo = Memo
CustomerName = Text
CustomerAddress = Text
PaymentDetails = Text
OrderProductDetails
=========
OrderNumber = Number (Linked to OrderID)
ProductNumber = Number (Linked to ProductID)
Notes = Memo (Notes on product customization)
The OrderProductDetails table is in many to one relationships with both Orders and Products table. If I place an order with 3 products, the OrderProductDetails datasheet would be:
OrderNumber ProductNumber
========================
1 78 (Product 1)
1 89 (Product 2)
1 56 (Product 3)
On my report, instead of 3 entries for this order, I would like show just one entry under a column "Products Ordered" ---> Product 1, Product 2, Product 3.
I tried the Concatenate macros I found online, however, I am unable to configure them properly to use for this purpose.
I am using Access 2010.
I have a table with multiple rows per member that I would like to convert to 1 row per member. I have a table that looks a bit like this:
Member_IDDiagnosis
10000Hypothermia
10000Frost Bite
10001Fatigue
10001Dehydration
10001Exhaustion
99999Exhaustion
99999Hypothermia
And I'd like to convert it to this:
Member_IDDiagnosis - 1Diagnosis - 2Diagnosis - 3Diagnosis - 4
10000 HypothermiaFrost Bite
10001 Fatigue DehydrationExhaustion
99999 Exhaustion Hypothermia
The columns don't line up well but I am looking for each diagnosis to move into one of the 4 columns, depending on whether it is the first, second, third or fourth diagnosis associated with the member.
I am trying to merge data from multiple rows into one row for each unique ID. I can replicate on how to do this on a table, maybe a query or something like that. Attached img shows
View 3 Replies View RelatedI manage the production schedule of over 150 reports. Some of which are due daily, weekly, bi-weekly & monthly. (some reports have multiple due dates for the current month.) I have the production schedule in a table with multiple DueDate columns: DueDate1, DueDate2, DueDate3, etc. Some reports are due every business day of the week. I need to:
1.) Display the due dates (without having to enter them manually) so I can perform calculations, conditional formatting, etc.
2.) Should I display a column for each due date (31 columns accross for those that are due daily?) or show a duplicate row for that report for each day the report is due?
Row1: Sales_Report, 5/20/13, Completed
Row2: Sales_Report, 5/28/13, Pending
Row3: Sales _Report, 5/31/13, Pending
Row4: Operations_Report, 5/2/13, Pending
3) is there a formula that can be written to autopopulate the duedate fields for every instance and every month? (Sales_Report due every Mon, Wed, Fri (5/13/13, 5/15/13, 5/17)
I am currently putting these dates in manually every month and it would be a pain to continue that given our reporting production schedule will only increase.
