Queries :: Cannot Sort Query - Enter Parameter Value Error
Sep 16, 2014
I cannot sort below query in descending order by absolute value. If I do not use sort, all works fine but as soon as I try to sort by absolute value I get message to 'Enter Parameter Value'. I tried to replace Abs([Variance (W2 - W1)]) with filed name AbsoluteValue and still the same result ;(
Code:
SELECT [Query Union].[Stock Code] AS SKU, [Query Union].[Pallet No] AS [Pallet No], [Query Union].[Batch No#] AS Batch, IIf(IsNull([qW1 SOH].[Physical stock]),0,CDbl([qW1 SOH].[Physical stock])) AS [W1 Qty], IIf(IsNull([W2 SOH].[Good Stock]),0,CDbl([W2 SOH].[Good Stock])) AS [W2 Qty], [W2 Qty]-[W1 Qty] AS [Variance (W2 - W1)], Abs([Variance (W2 - W1)]) AS AbsoluteValue
I have a list (table) that I've created in sharepoint 2010.I link to the sharepoint table with Access 2010 to update mass amounts of items at once. Some of the queries have no problem updating the sharepoint items, but other queries require me to "Enter Paramater Value."
In this particular queries; I'm trying to populate field A with dates from field B, when field A is null.
--------------------- UPDATE Table 1 SET Table.[FieldA] = [FieldB] WHERE (((Table 1.[FieldA]) Is Null)); --------------------
When I run the above, I receive the "Enter Parameter Value" input box.All records have Field B populated (it's actually the created date.)
The goal is for field A to be populated with the values in Field B, without the query asking for parameters.
Note; I can go in each individual record and update them via access, one at a time. But it's the running of the update query that failing.
Whenever I open the form 'TrainingF' I get the 'Enter Parameter Value' msg box. I tried to look online but could not get rid of it. I have attached the file.
I have a crosstab queries which uses the date query parameters. However, when I go to my Export command (code is below), it ask me to enter the date parameters (start date and end date) twice. What do I have to do so that the system will ask me to enter once only?
Code: On Error GoTo Err_cmdTest_Click 'Must 1st set a Reference to the Microsoft Office XX.X Object Library Dim dlgOpen As FileDialog Dim strExportPath As String Const conOBJECT_TO_EXPORT As String = "qryEXPORT"
Every time I run a query that I have created it asks me to input Expr1 and Expr2 in an enter perameter value pop up box. I don't enter anything, just click okay and the query runs as expected.
Is there a way to get rid of these? (and maybe more importantly, why do they appear?)
I have created a db with 10 linked tables from 10 db's. I then build 10 queries associated to these linked tables. The 10 queries filter data by start date and end date. The data generated from each query is then exported to excel (each query has its own sheet in the woorkbook).
I am trying to mail merge from word 2013 to a query in access 2013. I initially had problems displaying the query until I came across a solution regarding connecting via DDE. I can now link to the query but it then asks me to 'enter parameter values' from the query. I have already run these values into the query via a form which ends up in a report. (incidentally I have left the report open). If I manually enter these parameters it works fine.
I have a form and it is related with a query and by clicking ok I got the required results in Access 97. But now I have converted to Access 2002 and whenever i enter values in the form and click ok I get a Dialog Box "Enter Dialog Box". I read MKB article but it did not help me at all. Please help me out I am not getting any idea at all to solve this problem?
I have searched other threads and cannot find one that helps solve my problem. So, I hope someone can help.
I have a query which runs ok until it is filtered. I have tried using criteria to filter the info I need but this returns an 'Enter Parameter Value' message. Running the query without using criteria works okay but using a filter in the report itself returns a 'Data Mismatch' message.
The report filters fine on fields until it gets to one that has been changed from text to number. It also includes an Nz formula. The formula in the is field is: CLng(Nz([order_no],0)). Other fields related to this also appear to be affected.
I need the CLng formula as the field is needed to calculate other fields using a zero instead of a null which would otherwise cause an error. I was given the formula on this forum yesterday, (thanks Bob Larson and AlanJ10), which was great in solving the other issue but is this is what is affecting filtering, (ie. a confusion between text and number?!?!) I have also tried converting the result of the calculation I want to filter back into text using CStr but this does not make any difference.
I have checked the field names and also renamed fields that were 'Expr' (as in default names for calculated fields), and cannot see any problems.
I have a query and one of the fields/headings i have it create is a "cost" total where it does a dlookup from a defaults table.
I then have a "listprice" which is antoher field in the querry of which the data table sits.
I want to take the [listprice] and minus the [cost] without re-creating the dlookup function...
I need this to help with an APR calulction using the RATE function which if i have it do all the dlookups it says I have exceeded the limitiation and will be trumcated. So if i use the name [cost] it works but i have to hit enter because it says "Enter Parameter Value".
I have the following query that gives me this halt. If I enter without responding to it it opens in Datasheet view as intended. It wants me to enter Query2.EmpID. This is my SQL statement.
SELECT qryPolicyByDriverName.CWSPolicy, qryPolicyByDriverName.EmpID, qryPolicyByDriverName.DriverName FROM tblTrainingPoliciesNotCoveredDrivers INNER JOIN qryPolicyByDriverName ON tblTrainingPoliciesNotCoveredDrivers.CWSPolicy = qryPolicyByDriverName.CWSPolicy;
I don't know why this is happening. Thanks for looking at my problem.
ok im am not sure if this is in the right place but it seems to be a form problem. i have a form that has a textbox(text1) which is used to enter a supplier name, the user then presses enter and another form opens up with all the supplier details.ok. the code i have to do this is on the afterupdate of text1 which is unbound is DoCmd.openform"SupplierDetails",,,"[Supplier Name]=" & Supplier name when i use this code and the enter key is pressed an `Enter Parameter Value` dialog box appears with the supplier name under the blue title bar.if i then enter the supplier name again it opens the second form and displays all the details i want. If i use the code DoCmd.openform"SupplierDetails",,,"[Supplier Name]"= me.Supplier_name it opens up the second form without the dialog box but it doesnt display any details. is ther any way to adjust the first code so the dialog box isnt displayed and just goes straight to the second form and displaying the details. i have gone through as many posts as i can but cant seem to find a fix.
Does anyone know if it's possible to edit the contents of the "Enter Parameter Value" Box...for starters, I'd like to delete the phrase "Please Enter Parameter Value" as it means nothing to most users of Access; also, I'd like to format the text that I've entered in the query itself, i.e. make it bold, increase the size of it.
Incidentally, I did go down the route of linking my query to a form but this caused problems as I want more that one user to be able to view their particular parameter value at the same time.
I have been looking everywhere on a search form and its related queries / tables for a missing value / error that causes this pop up:
Enter Parameter Value =Date()
The report opens fine once that parameter error is cleared, and I cannot find what it is refering to at all. Does Access have any tools to help me track that down instead of blindly looking at every component piece by piece and hoping to stumble upon it?
I found the code below to clear P.V. errors (I think anyway - I would rather figure out what is causing it, but after way too much time spent on it, I still have had zero luck), and I have toyed with this and am having no luck:
Private Sub Report_Open(Cancel As Integer) On Error Resume Next
Dim ctl As Control Dim var As Variant Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
Set rst = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset(Me.RecordSource)
For Each ctl In Me.Controls var = rst(ctl.ControlSource)
If Err = 438 Then ' Control has no Controlsource-property Err.Clear Resume Next End If If Err = 3265 Then ' Controlsource doesn't exist in recordsource ctl.ControlSource = "" Err.Clear Resume Next End If Next ctl End Sub
I am trying to create a report, filtered on a combo box(txtname).This combo box is having a list of names.I have one query(mainquery) based on a single table(maintbl).I created a blank form(GenerateReport) with abovementioned combo box(txtname) and a simple button, which will open a simple report.In mainquery, under names column i am defining the criteria:
[Forms]![GenerateReport]![txtname]
Report is being filtered accurately.But when I open query i receive error 'Enter parameter Value'
why I get a pop up asking for parameter value of fields I no longer have in my table? It says this when I open my form. I deleted the fields from my form but it's still asking for it.
Dim str As String str = "select combination from tbl_userinformation where Username= txtuser.value AND actualdate=txtdate.value ; " If DCount("*", "tbl_userinformation", " [05-Henrichpiramid]=true AND " & _ "Username = '" & Me![txtuser] & _ "' AND [actualdate] = " & Format(Me![txtdate], "#mm/dd/yyyy#")) > 0 Then DoCmd.RunSQL (" update tbl_userinformation SET combination = str &'05-Henrichpiramid' where Username= txtuser.value AND actualdate=txtdate.value ;")
but when i run it it asks me for enter parameter value for str
I have a command button that opens a report.In one of my reports, this macro works:
Code: ="[eEmployeeID]=" & [eEmployeeID]
However, in another command button that should open another report, the code below does not seem to work:
Code: ="[echEmployeeID]=" & [eEmployeeID]
It just keeps giving me errors saying that there's a mismatch, etc. The field in my report that holds Employee ID is named echEmployeeID. If I write this code:
Code: ="[echEmployeeID]=" & "[eEmployeeID]"
it sort of works, but Access asks me to enter parameter value first before executing the where condition. I already tried to change [echEmployeeID] to [eEmployeeID] both in the source table, and the report but it just doesn't work.
I have a query with several different columns. One Column, CodeNum is built based on the values in Expr4. When I try to set a criteria for CodeNum (Like "8*"), and I run the query, I get a popup for Expr4 ("Enter Parameter Value | Expr4). I want to get all values of Expr4 when CodeNum starts with an 8.
CodeNum is built as follows: JCC: Left([Expr4],InStr([Expr4],"/")-1)
I have Created This Macro (Photo1) to Display Clients Home Address on A Bing Map, however, When I run Code I get A "Enter Parameter Value" Pop-Up. (Photo2) When I actually enter ClientID number in this case 5 it Does what I want See (Photo3). How do I get it to open directly to form with out Enter Parameter Value popup?
