Non-Updatable Query Due To Sums
Aug 14, 2007
I'm struggling with a non-updatable query issue. I have a table at the category level that should allow entry but it needs to pull in information from another query. In this 2nd query, its doing group by/counts/sum's from an item level table. From reading about the dynasets and trying to fix it, it looks like this the major problem.
The item level table has information that is changing based on other user input so I don't think using a make table would work. I tried setting the queries/form to dynaset (inconsistant updates) but no luck there. It still wouldn't allow any changes to the entry field. Any clue on how I could get around this?
Main Table
Category Entry
A. . . . ._____
B. . . . ._____
Item Table
Item Category Sales
1. . . . . .A . . . . $10
2. . . . . .B . . . . $15
3. . . . . .B . . . . $10
This query built using the main table joined with a group by/sum of the item table.
Goal Query for Updates
Category Sales Entry
A. . . . . . . $10. ____
B. . . . . . . $25. ____

I have a query which performs a calculation calculating totals of many fields linked by BikeID This is not updatable due to the calculated field. Now i want to join this query to the BikeDetails table to create a form. So this means that i would have all the data from the table which i can update and the calculated field which i cant. But when i join the two tables/query all the data becomes non updatable.
Thanks

Ok ive been having this sort of problem for a while. Ive been trying to display updatable and non updatable data in a datasheet form. The problem is that i couldnt update any of the details with a calculated field in the table. Therefore i have put the calculated field in a subform thanks to someone on the forums request(sorry i cant remember who it was). After referencing the subforms text box i can display the correct information in form view however i cannot display in in datasheet view without expanding the subform [+] for the form to do the calculation. I need the form to go through all records once it opens unless anyone has a better solution. Hope sumone can help,
Thanks Sci

I have the following simple query. The query joins the data in two tables and I use it in a bound form. This has worked fine for a couple of years, but today the query is saying it is a non-updatable recordset. This stops users changing any data in the form. I have tried the following to no avail:
compact/repair
recreate the query
copy the whole database into a different MDB file
Is there something silly I might be missing??? I did not changed any of the table structure this problem has just appeared.
Code:SELECT tblWorksOrders.*, tblLocations.* FROM tblWorksOrders INNER JOIN tblLocations ON tblWorksOrders.WOLocationId = tblLocations.LCNIdentifierORDER BY tblWorksOrders.WorksOrderNo, tblWorksOrders.InstructionNo;

Hi,
I'm having a lot of trouble creating a parameter query that will work when i sum a column.
I can get it to work without a seum (code below)
SELECT "Daily VDNs".Date, "Daily VDNs".ACD, "IVR VDN Filter".NSWCTP, "Daily VDNs"."Inbound Calls"
FROM "RSS Data".RssUserRW."Daily VDNs" "Daily VDNs", "RSS Data".RssUserRW."IVR VDN Filter" "IVR VDN Filter"
WHERE "Daily VDNs".ACD = "IVR VDN Filter".ACD AND "Daily VDNs"."VDN Number" = "IVR VDN Filter".VDN AND (("Daily VDNs".Date=?) AND ("IVR VDN Filter".NSWCTP Is Not Null))
But I cant get it to work when I change "Daily VDNs"."Inbound Calls" to a sum (code below)
SELECT "Daily VDNs".Date, "Daily VDNs".ACD, "IVR VDN Filter".NSWCTP, Sum("Daily VDNs"."Inbound Calls") AS 'Sum of Inbound Calls'
FROM "RSS Data".RssUserRW."Daily VDNs" "Daily VDNs", "RSS Data".RssUserRW."IVR VDN Filter" "IVR VDN Filter"
WHERE "Daily VDNs".ACD = "IVR VDN Filter".ACD AND "Daily VDNs"."VDN Number" = "IVR VDN Filter".VDN
GROUP BY "Daily VDNs".Date, "Daily VDNs".ACD, "IVR VDN Filter".NSWCTP
HAVING ("Daily VDNs".Date={?}) AND ("IVR VDN Filter".NSWCTP Is Not Null)
However, I can use the above code without a parameter query and define a value. But life would be so much easier with a parameter query.
Any assistance is greatly, greatly appreciated!!

I have a query which returns records in 5 different fault categories; mechanical, service, electrical, damage and retrofit. The values the query return are based on another query and are a sum of the amount of money spent in each category.
I have put a sum fuction in the 'field' box like this; total: ([Mechanical]+[Service]+[Electrical]+[Damage]+[Retrofit])
I also have a criteria set up where every time the query runs a specific id has to be entered.
The problem is when i run the query with the function shown above i have to enter the id to run the query then it asks me to enter the id again for the 'Retrofit', it then runs the query but adds the value i have entered in the criteria for retrofit to the totals of the other fault categories!!!
If i remove the retrofit part of the sum funtion it works fine
Please help this is very frustrating
Thanks

I have a DB where I run two queries every week that extracts data from a Datawarehouse and appends records to a table. Then i run an update query that updates a policy status on the same table the appended records are added to.
For some reason this week when i try to run the update queary i get the following message:
Operation must use an updatable query.
Anyone familiar with this error? The table in not read-only and no other users are in the db

I have the following update query:
UPDATE DISTINCTROW MVADMP_SECURITY INNER JOIN Activity ON MVADMP_SECURITY.CUSIP_NO = Activity.[CUSIP#] SET Activity.[Wire Date] = [BK_ENT_DT]
WHERE (((Activity.[Fannie Mae Loan #]) Is Null));
which works fine in the production environment. However, in the test database, I get an updatabale query error.
The Activity table is a table that is local in each database, while the MVADMP_SECURITY table is in the back end and is used by both the test and production environments. Both Activity tables have the same keys and indexes. I have write permissions for Activity table in both environments, while no one has write permissions to the MVADMP_SECURITY in either environment.
I have tried both copying and importing it into the test environment and the result is always the same; updatabale query error. Does anyone have any idea what's going on?

The user currently manual checks the Use Part? box but would I would like to automate with an update query. I have this query that needs to be updatable but has a group by and min to get the correct results. I plan to run this query by another update query to update the table, but its currently not updatable. Is there a workaround or does anyone have another scheme to go at it. Here is my current queries.
SELECT [t_BOM Part Cross].[Customer ID], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Assembly #], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Quote #], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Line #], Min([t_BOM Part Cross].[Alt Unit 1]) AS [MinOfAlt Unit 1], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Use Part?]
FROM [t_BOM Part Cross]
GROUP BY [t_BOM Part Cross].[Customer ID], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Assembly #], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Quote #], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Line #], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Use Part?]
HAVING ((([t_BOM Part Cross].[Quote #])=[FORMS]![Parameter]![Quote #]) AND ((Min([t_BOM Part Cross].[Alt Unit 1]))>0))
ORDER BY [t_BOM Part Cross].[Customer ID], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Assembly #], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Quote #];
I have another query that I used a SUB SELECT ON THE [Alt Unit 1] but does not group the other fields to get the results but it is updatable.
SELECT [t_BOM Part Cross].[Quote #], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Line #], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Alt Unit 1], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Use Part?]
FROM [t_BOM Part Cross]
WHERE ((([t_BOM Part Cross].[Quote #])=[FORMS]![Parameter]![Quote #]) AND (([t_BOM Part Cross].[Alt Unit 1])>(SELECT MIN([Alt Unit 1])>0
FROM [t_BOM Part Cross])))
ORDER BY [t_BOM Part Cross].[Quote #], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Line #];
thanks for any help available

I recently inherited an MS Access application. To bring it up to company standards, the data needed to be rehosted in DB2. The screens remain in MS Access. To accomplish this with no/minimal code change, I followed these steps:
1) For each access table, I created a DB2 table with the same structure. (table name and field names changed based on company standard)
2) Created a link table in access for each DB2 table
3) removed each Access table and replaced with a query (based on link table) with same name. The query maps field names us AS clause.
The reports and screens paint fine but any update operation results in a 3073 error. 'Operation must use an updateable query'. There are no joins or aggregates in the query.
Any suggetions?
thanks

As I usually concentrate on building the tables and fields in my initial stage, and do some experimenting to analyze the relationship.
However, when I'm done, I find it quite a hassle to go manually through the tables to add description to each field for documenting.
What I would like to do is create a query that will list all fields and its description. Now, I have found codes to retrieve either table or fields properties, including the description property, but am kind of stumped on how I can make it a SQL statement so I can create a temporary query, which will be pretty be one time thing, that can read all fields' description and allow me to type in it, save it.
If that's not possible, I suppose I could write code, using Allen Browne's example, that would loop through the fields' description, debugging to the immediate window and prompting me if I would like to add something to the blank description. However, this isn't exactly greatest as I need to see all fields so I can be sure I'm giving good descriptions.
I figured someone may have had this same problem and maybe came up with a solution?

I have a form that stores information about attendees for a given class. In this particular instance, I only store one address, one contact information both which are optional. I've used subforms, but that has bought problems (one notable problem is that one field from tblAddress is required for *any* attendee, which is county they resides in, whether they give out an address or not. At this point my VBA codes to work around this is simply too buggy and a major hassle.
Therefore, I am now considering two possibilities: 1) make a unbound form and do everything manually without any subforms or 2) create an updatable query somehow that can pull together the needed information. The latter, I'm not sure if that is feasible, so I'm asking you about that.
Address and Contact Information are kept as a many side tables, and different queries I've made in past only is either non updatable or partially updatable, which does no good. If anyone can show how one can retrieve only one record from the many side and keep it as updatable, that'd be great.
TIA.

I tried to update a column in a table (tblReservedPart) from a query (qryF4101) using Update Query. Here is the code:
UPDATE tblReservedPart INNER JOIN qryF4101 ON [tblReservedPart].[PN]=[qryF4101].[PartCode] SET tblReservedPart.strProductLine = [qryF4101].[IMGLPT]
WHERE [tblReservedPart].[PN]=[qryF4101].[PartCode];
I received an error "Operation must use an updatable query." I am not updating the query. What is the error complaining?
Thanks.

Hey all! This is my first post. Been searching through the net all day trying to find a solution to this problem. Basically i have a table that looks like this (regular text is what i have and bolded text is what I need:Name Date Qty MOBrad 12/12/2007 23323 4423John 12/11/2007 3445 4432 John 12/11/2007 344 4432 John 12/11/2007 45 4432 John 12/11/2007 44 4432 John 12/11/2007 3445 4432 Grand Total: (Qty)And then I'd like to be able to carry this over and display a grand total at the bottom of every page of a report that I would need to generate. Our company produces forms and we sometimes have 60 - 70 people working on a single job. We want to see their hours individually but we would also like to see a grand sum of all their hours. If someone could help with this or needs more info let me know. Thanks for all your help!

I've been trying to use a sum in a query to add up the currency of several records in a field from another table but as yet have had no success. The sum simply shows all the records but on there own and not in one total :confused:
I also need to use a count to total up the number of records in a table with a certain piece of data, in this case a 1, but again it does the same as the totals and simply shows each record on its own
If anyone knows what I am doing wrong I would greatly appreciate some help and advice
Thankyou

This has got to be really simple but I just cant figure it out because Im a novice.
I have a dbase based on clients and each client has a subform for where you can enter payments owed and payments received.
The queries run smooth when there is data but if there are no records for the payments owed or payments received, I get an nothing and #errors when I try and manipulate the data.
Im guessing this is a null value error and Ive tried the IsNull and Nz fuctions but I cant get them to work for me.
Should these functions be placed in the query which calculates the sum?
If so, how?
For example, my query is
Field:Hearingwcb
Table:HearingShowQuery
Total:Group By
Criteria [Contacts]![wcb]
This extract the appropriate records for the current client
Field: HearingFee
Table: HearingShowQuery
Total: Sum
This sums them up.
Im guessing because the sum is null, I am getting nothing. How can I get this to return a 0. I think that should take care of my problem.
Thanks so much...its driving me crazy!

I have a report that is broken up by invoice number. I want to create a text box that will sum the lines for each invoice number. I have the text box set to add the lines, but currently it is grabbing the first value for each multiple line invoice. Confusing, I know. See below:
Invoice number Date Amount
123456789 5/23/05 23,100.00
123456789 5/23/05 1,000.00
Amount: 23,100.00 <--- I can get this to = the first line for each invoice number but not total (should = 24,100.00)
Invoice number Date Amount
987654321 5/24/05 525.69
Amount: 525.69
Can anyone help me?

I'll see if I can make this clear and concise.
I basically want to sum totals(or rather subtract totals) from groups in a report. The problem is that all my numbers are positive and need a way if possible to change some to negatives.
I have 3 categories set up e.g
Account Payable , Accounts Receivable and Non-Revenue
In the form used for input , there is a drop down box in which you select 1 of the three account types. There is second box in which you input the amount (always positive). This second box is common to all account types therefore no matter the account you input the dollar values into this second box.
Right now the report is summing all values in the group so that it's not subtracting account payable amounts from account receivable amounts...Any help would be appreciated, and hopefully it will be a simple solution. NOTE: i would like to stay away from writing or editing any code. Thanks in advance

I did a search for Gouping and sums, but nothing really helped me.
What I am trying to figure out: I have a table where I am trying to use 4 fields in a query.
Vendor, items, Cost, Date1
- I am trying to Group by Vendor, Sub-Group by Items (Easy, I did this)
- Now I am trying to Filter this by date1 (Easy, I did this)
But I would like to sum the Cost for the Groups, but not list every repeated item. For Example:
Vendor A Brush 100 1/1/2005
Vendor C Book 50 1/2/2005
Vendor A Brush 100 1/3/2005
Vendor B Pencil 10 1/4/2005
Vendor A Hat 50 1/5/2005
Vendor B Pencil 10 1/6/2005
Vendor B Pen 10 1/7/2005
Vendor B Eraser 10 1/8/2005
Vendor A Shoe 40 1/9/2005
Vendor D House 1000 1/10/2005
Doing a search from 1/1/2005 - 1/9/2005 we get:
FORM OUTPUT:
Vendor A Brush 200 2
Hat 50 1
Shoe 40 1
Vendor B Pencil 20 2
Pen 10 1
Eraser 10 1
Vendor C Book 50 1

I have a query calculating the sum of checked boxes of field 'A' ('letters sent') and the sum of checked boxes of field 'B' (letters received). My sum field is counting the boxes that are checked but showing the values with a negative sign in front?? How do I correct this? Also - could I create an additional field in this query to calculate the percentage% (success rate) #B's checked/#A's checked?

well i created a relationship between 2 tables where:tableA = invoice datatableB = company IDsi have 2 questions that i have been unable to resolve on my own. 1. i want to create a query where i am able to find all of the invoices from a single company using it's ID and add up all of the account payable/recieveables i learned how to add all of the values on a field but i don't know how to add the values on a specific row. so while i can add all of the ap/ar on the table with all of the information, i can't add the ap/ar of a single company despite the fact that my table sorts them apart (because i don't know how ><)would a code like iff([company id]= "#",add) be close to what i'm looking for? because that's all i'm been fiddling with to try to get my query to do what i want. so far i'm stuck with: AR: IIf([company ID]=1,[AR$$],0) whereas 1 is the ID of the specific company i'm trying to pull records for and AR$$ is the field that i'm trying to pull the information from.2. find a way so that i can get my table to print all of the records for a specific company based on the ID. so for example, if i wanted all of the invoices from company #9 then i would pull them out and print them. i tried expanding the + sign on the company ID table and printing it, but it obviously failed -.-"i would really appreciate any help that can be provided to me! i just started access so anyone that can link me to an article related to this would be greatly appreciated because i don't know the terminology/keywords that i should be searching for in the article page that i'm using for this case.

Good afternoon,
I am trying to figure out how to create a cumulative sum field for a test report I am working on. On a very simple level, I can run queries to get my data into the following format:
Test # | Article # | Test Time | Test Parameters
1 | 1 | 8 | A,B,C
2 | 2 | 5 | A,B,C
3 | 2 | 7 | A,B,C
4 | 2 | 9 | A,B,C
For each test number, I want a separate report page showing the article number, test time, and test parameters. Also on each page, I want to display the cumulative test time for all test numbers up to the displayed test number, but only for the article used in that test.
For this example, page three would have test number 3, article number 2, test time 7, test parameters A,B,C, and cumulative test time on article 2 of 12 (5+7), while page four would have a cumulative test time on article 2 of 21 (5+7+9).
How can I convince Access to do this for me? So far I've only been able to have a cumulative test time for all test articles, not just the test article related to the test number. To make this more complicated, Access needs to be able to have another article added at any time without having to rework the code to create the test reports.
I appreciate any help you can give me that will get me on my way.
Thanks!
Erik
