Queries :: Make A Nested If Then Statement In A Query Field
Apr 27, 2014
I'm trying to make a nested if then statement in a query field, and I can't figure out why I can't get my formula to work:
Volume: IIf([MethodCode]="K",[total]*12.54*0.026873,IIf([MethodCode]="S",([length]*[width]*[depth])/2,IIf([MethodCode]="M" And [Location]="SH",[total]*5.08*0.026873,IIf([MethodCode]="M" And [Location]="C",[total]*18.58*0.026873," "))))
I keep getting the "data type mismatch in criteria expression" error. If I separate out all the individual if then statements individually, they work. But if I connect them all as a nested if then it doesn't work.

I've been using a SELECT INTO statement to import data from a linked text file into a temporary table in Access. Something along the lines of :
SELECT [tblLink].[fld1] AS Field1,
[tblLink].[fld2] AS Field2,
[tblLink].[fld3] AS Field3
INTO [tblTemp]
FROM [tblLink]
(There's an INNER JOIN in there and some Nz / CLng functions but just want to keep it simple...)
Now - I've just realised I also need to create a couple of extra 'dummy' fields in my temporary table (for later on in the show) and I need them to be Yes/No format (will set them to False at first, then run some separate queries later to update them)
I tried this :
SELECT [tblLink].[fld1] AS Field1,
[tblLink].[fld2] AS Field2,
[tblLink].[fld3] AS Field3,
False AS Field4,
False AS Field5
INTO [tblTemp]
FROM [tblLink]
But this sets Field4 and Field5 as Number fields, with each record given a value of 0. What syntax is required in the SQL to make these fields Yes/No rather than Number?

I am trying to calculate the time between two dates where one date field might be blank or not. Where the field is blank I want to use the current date to perform the calculation. So far I have the following but I keep receiving an error message saying that the expression has a function with too many arguments. Is there a simpler solution to this?
IIF([LastOfEnd_Date] IS NULL,(DateDiff(w,[LastOfDischarge_Date],NOW()))/4, IIF(Not isnull([LastOfEnd_Date], Abs(DateDiff("w",[LastOfDischarge_Date].[LastOfEnd_Date]))/4

I'm wanting to run an update query but first I want to see the results by using a select query to make sure that I'm getting the correct results.
See the following query statement:
SELECT ([Goodrec - All] INNER JOIN WH_ACCTCOMMON ON [Goodrec - All].ACCTNO = WH_ACCTCOMMON.ACCTNBR) INNER JOIN [Trial-GL-Reference] ON WH_ACCTCOMMON.CURRMIACCTTYPCD = [Trial-GL-Reference].LOANTYPE SET [Goodrec - All].GLCODE = [TrialTotals].[glcode], [Goodrec - All].CURRBAL = IIf(Not IsNull([chgoffamt]) And Not IsNull([partsold]),CCur([grossbal])-CCur([chgoffamt])-CCur([partsold]),IIf(Not IsNull([CHGOFFAMT]),CCur([grossbal])-CCur([CHGOFFAMT]),IIf(Not IsNull([partsold]),CCur([grossbal])-CCur([partsold]),[grossbal]))), [Goodrec - All].PCTOWNED = IIf(Not IsNull([origamt]) And Not IsNull([partsold]), CCur([origamt])-CCur([partsold]/CCur([origamt]), IIf(IsNull([partsold]), [grossbal]));
This is the error that I receive each time I attempt to run it and I'm not sure what I'm missing.
Error message:
MICROSOFT OFFICE ACCESS
Syntax error(missing operator) in query expression '([Goorec-ALL] Inner Join WH_ACCTCOMMON ON [Goodrec-All].ACCTNO=WH_ACCTCOMMON.ACCTNBR) inner join [TRIAL-GL-Reference].LOANTYPE SET [Goodrec - All].GLCODE = [TrialTotals].[glcode]'
Any help with this issue would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

I am trying to get an IIf statement to work, but I am not quite sure how I can lay it out properly so that it works.So this is what I need
(IIF(([PAON_TEXT]= "Abbey Parade" AND [SAON_TEXT] AND [SAON_START_NUM]), (THATS THE CONDITION)
[SAON_START_NUM] & " ", (THATS THE TRUE PART)
(IIf(Not IsNull([SAON_TEXT]),[SAON_TEXT] & " ","") & (IIf(Not IsNull([SAON_START_NUM]),[SAON_START_NUM],"") & IIf(Not IsNull([SAON_START_SUFFIX]),[SAON_START_SUFFIX] & " ") & IIf(Not IsNull([SAON_END_NUM])," - " & [SAON_END_NUM] & " ","") & IIf(Not IsNull([SAON_END_SUFFIX]),[SAON_END_SUFFIX] & " ","") & IIF(([PAON_TEXT]= "Abbey Parade" AND [SAON_TEXT] AND [SAON_START_NUM])," ","") & iif(NOT IsNull([PAON_START_NUM])," " & [PAON_TEXT],"")
(ALL OF THIS THE FALSE PART)
I know the syntax for the FALSE PART is wrong how can I make the whole statement to work?

I am trying to get the output of several nested IIF expressions to show in only one filed in the table created. The output needs to be captured in a table. I am staring with create table to get it to work before I go ahead and use the sql to update the original table (the table the data is from)
I can get each to run fine independently and the whole thing runs too, the issue is it wants to put each expression in a new column, thus it is forcing me to label the expression.
Can I change this to only output in one column or add some more sql to do so?
Here is the SQL (table and filed names have been changed to protect the innocent)
BTW, I cannot change the Table the data comes from, I am stuck with the single table structure (BOO).
************************************************** *************
SELECT TABLE1.ID,
IIf([TABLE1]![STAGE]="D",
IIf([TABLE1]![PROJ_ACTUAL_D_DATE] Is Not Null,"Tier 1",
IIf([TABLE1]![APPROVAL_D]="Y","Tier 2",
[Code] .....

Hello,
I have been working on a query for a few hours now to create a new field based on data in other fields in my table. Here is the code I am using:
MBkt: IIf([Table14].[OWNERGRP_1]<>"",IIf([Table14].[OWNERGRP_1]="ADVO",IIf([Table14].[PRICINGMKT]="SHAREDEX","SEZ"),IIf([Table14].[PRICINGMKT]="REP","REP"),IIf([Table14].[PRICINGMKT]="RIP","REP"),IIf([Table14].[COV_FREQ]="Weekly PCD","PCD"),IIf([Table14].[COV_FREQ]="Weekly","ADVO WKLY","ADVO MULTI-WEEKS"),IIf([Table14].[OWNERGRP_1]="ANNE",IIf([Table14].[OWNER_1]="MMSI/MAIL MARKETING/ANNE","ANNE MMSI","ANNE"),"SOLO"))
Unfortunately, I am unable to get this to work. Any help that anyone can provide is greatly appreciated.

I have a table of dates that store all the Sundays of a year, as that is what all of our records are based on (how many items an employee sold on the week ending on such and such a date). The table is called WeekEndDates and the column is called WeekEndDate. I want to automate adding a new week, so I have a command button that has the following VB code:
DoCmd.RunSQL ("INSERT INTO WeekEndDates (WeekEndDate) VALUES (DATEADD('D',7, SELECT Max(WeekEndDate) FROM WeekEndDates)")
Any help would be appreciated, I don't know of another way to do this. I'm not sure if this is a SQL question or a VB question, so sorry if this is in the wrong spot.

Hello,
I'm new to working with Access Iif statements. I'm attempting to change data values in an existing table for column named "Status." Some of the data in this column has the correct value (Active) that needed represented, while the rest is populated with either a "J" which is Active or "T" which is inactive. I needed an update query that will ignore any values that are already "Active," and convert any values that are "J" to Active and values that are "T" to "Non Active." Any help would be greatly appreciated. Below is the function I have written that's full of syntax errors:
IIf(([STATUS] T,"T") = "T", then "Non Active"), IIf([STATUS] J,"J") = "J" then "Active"), else Active = "Active"))

I have done smoe baisc queries to sort, filter and report on data.How do I create a nested query where I don't repeat all the information across the query results line? Is there a way I can build a nested query to give all the SMCode codes associated with each appointment in one column separated by a coma?I have a table with appointments (APPTS):
RecID
ADate
ATime
Durantion
PVID
Desc
Case#
Then I have a table with Orders related to these appointments (ORDERS):
RecID
Case#
SMCode
SMDate
Here's my query:
SELECT DISTINCTROW Appts.RecID, Appts.ADate, Appts.ATime, Appts.Durantion, Appts.PVID, Appts.Desc, Orders.SMCode
FROM Appts INNER JOIN Orders ON Appts.[Case#] = Orders.[Case#];
My results look like this:
RecID ADate ATime Duration PVID Desc SMCode
RecID ADate ATime Duration PVID Desc SMCode
RecID ADate ATime Duration PVID Desc SMCode
I need my results to look like this:
RecID ADate ATime Duration PVID Desc SMCode,SMCode,SMCode...

I have different product groups and they can have one of 3 rental rates(5,4,3%) I have written a nested query but I keep getting parenthesis errors, the last one I got told me I must enclose iif functions in parentheses. I know its probably a small thing but I just cant see it. By the way the server is German so ; need to be used instead of ,.
IIf([view_India]![Sub_Group] In (1730;1810;2870);5;iif Left([view_India]![Sub_Group];2) In (01;02;21;24;29)

What is the best approach to returning calculated results in a query. I have been using nested IIf statements that include DateAdd but I think that I am at a point where there must be a better way.
I want my query to calculate a date based on:
1) A Type field from my table
2) A calculated date based on other query fields.
My query has the following fields:
[Type] [Action 1] [Projected Action 1] [Projected Action 1 Revised] [Action 2]
I want to create a calculated field for [Projected Action 2] that says:
If [Type] is "A" then
if [Action 2] Is NotNull, Null
if [Action 1] is NotNull, [Action 1] + 10 workdays
if [Projected Action 1 Revised] is NotNull, [Projected Action 1 Revised] + 10 workdays
if [Projected Action 1] is NotNull, [Projected Action 1] + 10 workdays
[Code] ....
I would like to keep using nested IIf but I keep running into problems and I thought that there is probably a better way.

I have a form in my Access database that has 3 input boxes by which a user can locate a record by. The problem I am running into is that I can not get a nested IF statement to work properly to first check which of the search boxes are filled in and second search by whichever is filled in. I have come up with the following code that seems to be only searching by the first input box. If the first input box is blank it does not move to the second or third numbers so I imagine there may be something wrong with the order of my IF statement or the syntax is off.

Some essential background first. I have a Balances table which records balances by date. I also have an Issues table where problems are logged. There is a one-to-many relationship between Balances and Issues (i.e. each Balance can have multiple Issues). I also have a Comments table where updates for each Issue are recorded. There is again a one-to-many relationship between Issues and Comments (i.e. each Issue can have multiple Comments)
There are two key date fields in the Issues table :FlagDate (the date an Issue was flagged by a user for investigation)
ResolveDate (the date said investigation was brought to a conclusion)
There is also a date field in the Comments table :UpdatedWhen (the date any given comment was added)
So the basic flow is that an Issue gets flagged (FlagDate), then various comments are added (multiple UpdatedWhen's) and finally the Issue gets resolved (ResolveDate)
I need to incorporate a trend graph which will show the counts ofNew (i.e. new issues flagged as of each day) Cleared (i.e. issues resolved each day)
Updated (i.e. issues not yet resolved but updated each day)
Unchanged (i.e. issues not yet resolved and not updated each day)
Outstanding (i.e. all unresolved issues as of each day)
This is the SQL I've put together to get that table of information on which to base my chart :
Code:
SELECT [tblBalances].[BalanceDate] AS AsOfDate,
(SELECT COUNT([tblIssues].[IssueID])
FROM [tblIssues]
WHERE [tblIssues].[Flag] = True
AND [tblIssues].[FlagDate] = [tblBalances].[BalanceDate]) AS New,
[Code] .....
The subqueries for 'New', 'Cleared' and 'Outstanding' work perfectly; the resultant dataset gives me one record for each date in the Balance table and correctly counts the number of issues falling into each of those buckets.
The problem I have is with the 'Updated' bucket. If a flagged issue happens to be updated twice on the same day (which is perfectly acceptable), it counts this twice as well. I don't want this as I just want to know how many issues were updated on any given day - not how many updates there were.
I tried using COUNT(DISTINCT) in the 'Updated' subquery but it gives me a syntax error - on further research, I don't think it's possible to use the DISTINCT keyword in a COUNT subquery (at least not easily)
I also tried grouping by IssueID within that 'Updated' subquery but it still gives me the duplicate count within the same IssueID (and returns nulls rather than zeroes for those days where no updates occured)
I think I need to add a subquery within the subquery () to only return the latest comment as of the date in question - something along the lines of :
Code:
(SELECT TOP 1 [tblComments].[UpdatedWhen]
FROM [tblComments]
WHERE [tblComments].[IssueID] = [tblIssues].[IssueID]
AND DateValue([tblComments].[UpdatedWhen]) <= [tblBalances].[BalanceDate]
ORDER BY [tblComments].[UpdatedWhen] DESC) AS UpdatedWhen
But how to do this, nor if it is even feasible in Access to begin with.

I have a simple nested query that is not working as expected. My inner query returns 102 records but when I run with outer query I only get 96 records. Below is my query, I don't really want to pull the same fields from both tables but I was doing to test. The values that are missing are those that don't exist with the monthenddate 8/31/2014 - a left join should fix that but doesn't seem to be working ..
Code:
Select distinct a.entity, a.gl_account,a.profit_center,[Open Items_1].profit_center,[Open Items_1].gl_account,[Open Items_1].entity
from(
SELECT DISTINCT [Open Items].entity, [Open Items].gl_account, [Open Items].profit_center
FROM [Open Items]
)a
left outer JOIN [Open Items] AS [Open Items_1] ON
(a.profit_center = [Open Items_1].profit_center) AND (a.gl_account = [Open Items_1].gl_account) AND (a.entity = [Open Items_1].entity)
Where ([Open Items_1].MonthEndDate=#8/31/2014#)

I am working on a hired plant database and want to limit the combo box on the hired form to only list items not on hire.I thought I could do this using the IssueDate and ReturnDate fields within a query with an IIf statement forcing the Yes/No field to choose Yes when there is a date in the IssueDate field and No when the ReturnDate field has a date entered.

I am trying to create a query that ONLY shows me the total count of each combo box choice for one field. It sounds very easy and I'm sure it is but everything I try tells me I am using the wrong syntax, or requires me to have rows when I only want column totals.
I have a combo box with a dropdown of 10 common places that people travel to. I want the report to ONLY show the total number of people who chose place 1, place 2, place 3... etc. But I always have to do according to date or time or something. I want it to look like this
Place 1 Place 2 Place 3 Place 4
13............36.........3........77
So essentially there would only be one row. But access will not let me. Is there something I'm doing wrong? Or is this not possible?

I am building a form that uses list box selections on the form to make a temporary query and open the results in Excel.
It mostly works in just trying to make it more functional.
Currently the listbox that contains the first and last names of the personnel also has a unique shorttext 'number' as a primary key for the table (bad choice in my opinion but I didn't design the database I just have to work with it).
The short text primary key is hidden by an option given in the listbox wizard that let me set that field width to zero but still search on it. This is how I currently build the query's where clause when it involves names. I search the primary key.
I would like to update the names list box based upon which cities and locations are selected (both are multi-select).
Do I need to change how I make the "where" clause to use first and last names or an I use the same query and just hide the USER_ID
The query looks like this
Code:
SELECT DISTINCT t_asset_personnel.LAST_NAME, t_asset_personnel.FIRST_NAME, t_asset_personnel.USER_PHY_ID
FROM t_asset_personnel INNER JOIN t_asset_master ON t_asset_personnel.USER_PHY_ID = t_asset_master.ASSIGNED_TO
ORDER BY t_asset_personnel.LAST_NAME;
And the list box wizard hides USER_PHY_ID
By setting the width to zero
If I make my own query in the City_After_Update()
Can I do something like this
Code:
SELECT DISTINCT t_asset_personnel.LAST_NAME, t_asset_personnel.FIRST_NAME, t_asset_personnel.USER_PHY_ID
.fieldWidth(0)FROM t_asset_personnel INNER JOIN t_asset_master ON t_asset_personnel.USER_PHY_ID = t_asset_master.ASSIGNED_TO
WHERE [forms]![myform]![citylist].[itemsSelected]'obviously more code is needed here this is just for conceptual illustration
ORDER BY t_asset_personnel.LAST_NAME;

I'm having trouble with using a where statement linked to fields when the field is empty. I need a way to say if field is null then 'do nothing'/'select all' else use the text from the box.
I have a form (ServicesRCSSearch) which has 3 combo boxes (Location1, Location2 and Location3). These fields are linked to a query. The button on the form generates the query.
My SQL for the query is currently:
Select Services.Key, Services.Location, Services_1.Location, Services_2.Location
From Services, Services_1, Services_2 (copies of the same table all left joined)
Where
((IIf(forms!ServicesRCSSearch!Location1 Is Null,"",services.Location=forms!ServicesRCSSearch! Location1))<>False)
And ((Services_1.Location)=IIf(forms!ServicesRCSSearch !Location2 Is Null,forms!ServicesRCSSearch!Location1,forms!Servi cesRCSSearch!Location2))
And ((Services_2.Location)=IIf(forms!ServicesRCSSearch !Location3 Is Null,forms!ServicesRCSSearch!Location1,forms!Servi cesRCSSearch!Location3))
This works in that it uses the fields to filter the query but when Location1 is empty there are no results as you can see from the code.

I can add to my make table query UDate: Date() that will add a populated field to the output table that has today's date in it.
I can also add something similar like this for example V_Num: [V_Number] and when ran, will prompt with a dialogue box to add some data, it will then create the table with that new field name and populated with the text from the dialogue box.
But how can I automate this to skip the dialogue box and just add it to the expression?

I am developing a calender to display HOTEL room occupancy (past,present) and combine with future "outlook" dates and 1/0 values from active registrations that go beyond the present date.
I am working with MS ACCESS 2007. My problem is ONE SPECIFIC QUERY AND IIF STATEMENT. I want to concatenate some text (using &) along with numbers converted to text (using the CSTr function). I am using iif function and I want to use the full text string as a variable argument to be executed in the iif function. The result of the &concatenate is a text field like [p1] or [p2] or [p#] with numbers 1-31.
But, I do not want the final result as the argument. I want the query and iif to use the string expression written into the argument as the variable argument that can be calculated based on OTHER numbers that change everyday in the daily run of the calender.
The field in the statement [calc number] is a date conversion factor that changes everyday.
I want the iif statement to execute using the string as a variable argument. I am writing only within the QUERY to define the query object. I am not writing into any SQL module or code. My field definition and iif statement is below (calc number changes everyday)
CalDate18: iif(18 greater date();"[p" & [calc number] & "]";0
I do not have greater-than key on this international keyboard !
When I use this in an update query, I get format conversion error. When I use the same definition in MAKE-TABLE query, it gives the resolved value "[p1]" for the value of [CalDate18] ......... that is not what I want.
I want the string to be taken literally and executed. Seems there may be a special character to precede the argument or WRAP the argument such as done in Excel. Example # "[p" & [calc number] & "]" #

Hi again everyone,
I'm stumped again.
I have two tables that my query is looking at.
1. tblProgramActByDay
And the other is:
2. tblProgramByProductByDay
I’m trying to tell the query to
A: Look in the Program ID Field
B: if the Program ID Field = 1667100
C: Go to the table tblProgramByProductByDay
---- In that table look for the criteria---
The Field Program ID must = 0
The Field Product ID must = 38648800
The Field Locale must = en_US
The Field Report_Date must = The Current Month
If it does
Total the amount in the Sales Field from the table tblProgramByProductByDay
If not
Take the total sales for the current month from the table tblProgramActByDay
