I was working on an update query while joined to another table - and the error I was receiving was the query was not updatable. Er... The table that was being updated sure seemed able to be updated...
Then I wondered if the reason this didn't work was because the other table I was updating from was a query whose records were sum'd and group'd by..I ended up testing the idea by inserting the query's records into a temp table and then did the update to the target table from the temp table... which worked fine.
I have 2 tables that are joined by a many to many table:
tblProductInfo - ProductID
tblProductLinerMM
- PLProductID (FK to [tblProductInfo].[ProductID]) - PLLinerID (FK to [tblLiner].[LinerID])
tblLiner
- LinerID
I have a range of products that each use 2 liners. An inner liner and an outer liner. I need to add 2 records per product to the tblProductLinerMM table.
for example
tblProductInfo has the following records:
- 2138557 - 2378954 - 4387657
tblLiner has 2 liners in particular that relate to these products:
- L5475 - L5468
I need to create the following records in tblProductLinerMM preferably with the use of a query :
I have a query with an INNER JOIN and ORDER BY that is working great. Now, using the same JOIN, I need to update values in one table with the values in another. I thought it would be simple until I learned you can't do an ORDER BY with an UPDATE. Is there another way to achieve the same result? If you remove the 'ORDER BY', the statement below doesn't produce an error but the results are not correct:
UPDATE TableA INNER JOIN TableB ON (Left(TableA.CDN,6))=(TableB.CDN) SET TableA.HCC = TableB.HCC WHERE TableB.HCC Like '241*' AND TableB.BBB = 'X' AND TableA.CCC = "1234" AND TableA.HCC IS NOT NULL ORDER BY TableB.HCC, TableA.CDN;
I have a table that is basically a survey form. The same series of options was available for 35 questions, and the table used to have a text string written for each answer. Because of all the repetitive data, I created a second table that assigned a number value to each of the nine possible options in these 35 separate fields. What happened is that, instead of the same text strings repeated over and over (and taking up real estate), now each of the 35 columns had a single number in them.
Now comes the day of reckoning and TPTB want a query with the raw data and the original text strings back in instead of the numbers. I was thinking doing something along the lines of a DLookup, but I can't seem to make that work in a query correctly. Apart from calling the same table and linking it over and over to the different fields in the original data table (see photo for how insane that is).
Now I require to join these both, the table and the output of the query on the condition where query.fileName like table.fileName.
There is no key in this field. Why I need this because the table has the sort order which the user can change when needed, if I put the sort order in the query then each time there is a change then the query needs to updated which the user can go wrong. Also the filename in the query has date associated which changes every day so I need to pick the unique part of the file name and associate it with the query to get the output from query and sort order from the table.
I am fairly new to Acces 2010.I have two seperate tables hat I need to use to compare data. As you can see table A and table B have some of the same item numbers but they also have different item numbers that are not other table. Also some of the item numbers are duplicated in each table but that is okay because the cost of the item is different. Both tables contain item numbers for the products. I want all of Table A item numbers including the item numbers that are in table B. But I also want Table B item numbers except for the item numbers that are also in Table A. In the real raw data file some of the item number fields are blank but the other fields have values. How should I query these tables so that I achieve the correct results?
Table A Item Num Costof Item Supplier Sales Tax Purchase Month 1234 $1.00 Walmart $2.00 Dec 2013 2222 $4.00 Walmart $1.00 Dec 2013 2222 $2.00 Walmart $1.00 Dec 2013 1276 $3.00 Sams club $1.50 Dec 2013 7898 $5.00 Texaco $5.00 Dec 2013 4567 $3.50 Food Lion $1.00 Dec 2013
I am trying to do an update on a table with a query which has a join as follows but getting an error:
UPDATE RoleObjects SET AccessType = 1 FROM RoleObjects INNER JOIN Objects On Objects.ObjectID = RoleObjects.ObjectID WHERE (RoleObjects.RoleID <> 1) AND (MID(Objects.ObjectName, 4, 2) = 'SR')
I tried to debug the code and found that the following part of the code with the Select clause works fine.
SELECT * FROM RoleObjects INNER JOIN Objects On Objects.ObjectID = RoleObjects.ObjectID WHERE (RoleObjects.RoleID <> 1) AND (MID(Objects.ObjectName, 4, 2) = 'SR')
I need help with an update query. I download several data tables from SAP that I would like to join again in Access. I have set up an updae querry but not all the records are unique. I thought I had fixed this by using a flag to update to -1 processed when running the query and set the criteria on the flag 0 to process items. But the whole querry processes before setting the flags at the end and I want the flag to be set so that it excludes processed items when each line of he query is executed. Can anyone help?
I have 2 tables that hold similar data. In one table tblMultiSchedule I have a few blank columns. I want to update each column(ActualCost*) with the correct data which is stored in tblOrdersItems. the corresponding fields in each tbl are
I have created the tables I need for my Access Web App.I would like to create queries.I cannot update fields that show in the query (fields have a grey frame and cannot be edited) . I have even created a completely new app with only 1 table (no relationships whatsoever in case this may influence). It is still not possible to edit any field in a query (that would update the underlying table). Are there any general settings in Access I need to enable? Is there a setting in Sharepoint I need to enable?
I have a table with a field I want to update with the value of a Union Query
The field I want to update is Yes/No format and I can update using 0 or -1 OK.
However, when I link in the union query (and check that I only have 1 update result which is either 0 or -1) I get an error message saying that Operation must use an updatable query.
I guess this is referring to the Union Query (although I am trying to update the table and not the query.
In short - I want to update a table based on the value of a union query.
Code: UPDATE tbl_StaMe_NGR_Subscription INNER JOIN qry_QDF_QRYDEF1 ON (tbl_StaMe_NGR_Subscription.EmailType = qry_QDF_QRYDEF1.Type) AND (tbl_StaMe_NGR_Subscription.AgentEmail = qry_QDF_QRYDEF1.Email)
Code: SET tbl_StaMe_NGR_Subscription.Subscribed = [Subscription];
They are related with a one-to-many relationship. The related field is "InvoiceId"
I want to create a query that shows selected fields from tblInvoice and the sum of field "PrepaymentValue" from table tblInvoicePrePayments.
I want to be able to edit the fields from tblInvoice in the query.
If I create a totals query (qryInvoicePrePaymentsSum) on tblInvoicePrePayments, using the fields InvoiceId and PrepaymentValue, and then create another query with tblInvoice & qryInvoicePrePaymentsSum, the fields in tblInvoice cannot be updated!
I have a table that is updated from an update query which gets its data from a table, which gets its data from a form. I have set the query to only update the current record, this is done by a macro when the user exits the input box. The problem arises when a user goes to visit past record, I would like it to not overwrite the old data with the new data. If the query was only allowed to ADD data and not overwrite then this would fix the problem!
I am currently working on ODBC linked tables to our webend system. I need to create a join to a lookup table but I cant seem to get it to work as it only seems to show me results from one of the tables not both? Ive tried LEFT and RIGHT joins plus INNER JOIN.
Now, I know that something in the UPDATE statement does not match my select statement.What should my Update Statement be, in order to update all the columns in the joined tables?
I have a database that needs data to be reentered every school term, at the moment i am having to delete selected data fields manually. im looking to create a query so that the data is deleted by running it. The data would be returned to a blank field. I have tried using a delete query but it is asking for the selected table, even though a selected table exists. Using the update query i am faced with updating the query to a typed word however i just want it blank.
I have a created a query which I want to update a table. The field is called DTP. I have the Workingdays2 module in place as well as the Holidays Table. The dates (date only) are called Time in and Transaction date. I want the table to update records only if the entry in Completed is Yes. I have attached screenshot of what I have in query. I am no good whatsoever at VBA so I used the Query design view. It shows how many records will be updated (which is a valid number) and shows me which field will be updated. However when I run the query and then opend the Table the DTP field is empty.
I would like to have a table update query populate cells in a field, based on an IIf statement (below), but states that the IIf statement arguments still need to be enclosed in parentheses. I don't understand what the problem is, I have two sets of opening / closing parentheses.
Let's say Table (T1) has fields F1 and F2. After a massive update to T1, there are some records with F1 = "" because a Dlookup using F2 as criteria to another Table (T2) resulted in a null. I created a select query to show unique T1F2 values where T1F1 = "". The user can use this query to find out which F2 values need to be added to T2.
How do I create an update query that will update T1F1 with values from T2 using the T1F2 results from the select query to again use the Dlookup to T2 (of course after T2 has been updated to contain the missing F2's)?
and what i need to is something that will link all sku 1 category names in a new field with a | divider and then all the sku 2 category names together with | as a divider and so on. the amount of categories is different for every sku.
And if this is easy enough, its not that important though but to delete duplicate category names when it transfers them across to a new field joined together.
I have my main linked table VI, and 4 of VI's fields are to be filtered in a query.
To do so, I have 4 very very tiny local tables (less than 20 records) called respectively "soff", "skus", "warr" and "typ", in which the user will only put what he wants in the result, and by doing Inner Joins, I filter it easily.
Problem is, doing more than 1 Inner Join slow the query so slow it's unbelievable.
If I run the query:
Code: SELECT VI.* FROM VI INNER JOIN SKUS ON VI.Sku= SKUS.Sku;
It runs in 0.7 seconds. It's about the same if I replace SKU by SOFF, WARR, or TYP, the query takes about 0.5 to 1.5 sec.
Now if I run:
SELECT VI.* FROM (VI INNER JOIN SKUS ON VI.Sku= SKUS.Sku) INNER JOIN SOFF ON VI.SOff = SOFF.Soff;
It takes either 15 seconds, or up to 100 seconds.
I tried by doing 4 successive queries, it's the same. The 1st query runs well, and then it grinds to a near-halt.
Running either the 4 queries or a query with the 4 inner joins takes me about 200 seconds, sometimes 400-500.
It's not even a hard query, VI has only almost 1mil rows, and the fields are indexed. The result is 800 rows.
If each join on VI takes 1 second, it should do 1sec+1sec+1sec+1sec, taking in account the fact that the left side of the join grows smaller at each step, it should even do something like 1+0.8+0.5+0.2, or something. Why does having these joins together, or follow each other, make things so damn slow?
I am looking to create a query using a main table and 3 related tables to produce a count of evaluations completed and evaluations passed by month (using the 3 related tables) and site location (using main table) which is joined by agent name. I have the following so far but:
Code: SELECT [MainTbl].Location, Format$([Tbl1].[EvaluationDate],'mmmm yyyy') AS [EvaluationPeriod], Count([Tbl1].[Agent Name]) AS [NoCompleted], Count(IIF([EvaluationScore]>=0.9,0)) AS [NoPassed]
trying to create an update query to Budget table using the Access Design View:
Field: PctSls (in tblBudget) Update to: [Expense] / [Sales]. The update query always returns 0. However, if I create a Select query using the same calculation, the correct results is displayed. PctSls is defined in the Budget table.
I haven't worked with Access (2003) for several years but this seems too simple to be causing me such frustration. (Was only a casual user even then).
