I've imported an Excel file into a table and now I've created a Query from it.
I now need to Add Fields (names are not in the table) and calculate totals for these renamed fields some of the answers are going to be the result of two or three fields.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks
My training database requires me to identify each training record in the tblEmpTrainHist table as either "Compliant" or "Delinquent". I thought a simple calculation in my query:
would do the trick. However, I did not consider the records where the employee has not yet completed the training and the field [DateReceived] is Null. There are two considerations: those employees who have no [DateReceived], but have not yet reached the DateDue (Compliant); and those employees who have exceeded the DateDue (Delinquent).
I have fought hard to try and figure this out and I have gotten 50% there.
I have a query that generates the following calculated fields through numerous calculations etc....:
[De-Merit Marks] [No Del with Major Faults]
Now the way it should work is that a supplier gets a rating (A-D) depending on both their De-Merit Marks score and the amount of deliveries with major faults. I used the following function in the query and it does the de-merit mark grading.
However I have no idea how to integrate the Major Faults part.
Basically:
0-10 = A 11-30 = B 31-50 = C 51-100+=D
If the supplier has one major fault, the rating should drop one from that reported using just the de-merit score. Two means it drops two ratings (so if an "A" on just the demerit, they would drop to a "C" and so on. Obviously a supplier cannot drop below a "D".
Can anyone suggest how these maybe acheived? I fear it requring VB code, but I am not that good with VB hence why I have relied on queries for this.
Hi everyone I'm a very very new access user so many apologies in advance for when I have no idea what I"m talking about.
I'm working on creating a report that will display multiple expiration dates. Currently I have an employee database, not created by me, that has all of our employees professional licenses listed.
Prof license, auto license, liability, etc.
I want to create a report that will tell me what has already expired or will expire in the next 30 days.
I did use this Between DateAdd("d",-30,Date()) and Date() and it is bringing back info up to 2009. which isn't what I need. I'm sure I'm doing something wrong here.
I want anything that has expired regardless of the date from today, before today, and 30 days from today but I don't care about anything more than 30 days from today's date.
I noticed that when I looked at the existing database that the fields are set as text fields. I tried to change them to dates and it gave me a "deleting 106" records error message. Yikes!
Any help would be appreciated. I don't really understand expressions and I don't understand if I'm supposed to put the actual date in parentheses or what. Please pardon my ignorance.
I have 10 tables, 30+ fields on each table (every table has the same 'account number' field). I only need from 5 - 20 fields from each table. How do I get the certain fields from each table and put them in a table, query or report?
I have two tables - Hours and Employees. Employees table has these fields: EmpID, and First, and Last name. Hours table has these fields: EmpID, Hours, Funding Source, Nature of Work, Pay Period
I need to produce a report or a query that will display these results: A column with a list of all the employees and all the Nature of Work categories going across with the sum of hours for each Nature of Work. I'm attaching an Excel spreadsheet that shows kind of what I need. Also, these reports need to be produced for each Funding Source and Pay Period, so something like [Enter Funding Source] and [Enter Pay Period]
My question is that I don't know how to make a report that will just list a column with all the names and count the sum of hours for each Nature of Work.
Hope this is not too confusing, and any help would be greatly appreciated. thank you!
Ohh Stress. Need Help....I have a mainform that contained two subforms in it. MainForm called "Employee", the two subform called "vac", and "Prevac". There is a field in my mainform called "Hours", that I'd like to use to Add with a field in Vac subform called "VacA" and a field in Prevac called "FHours". I'd like to display the total (sum of all three field on the same mainform. Is there anyone have any idea? Thanks in advance...
i have two text boxes in a form: 1) Todays Hours 2) Total Hours
when i enter a number in text box todays hours i want the value in the text box total hours to increment by that amount. this operation will be done on a daly basis for a internet cafe where the user comes and i put in the hours. it seems simple but i really do not know. could someone help me please :confused:
(When I get this working I'll make a field in the table so there is no need for the text-box.)
This is basically, three types of commision that I want to total at the end in a "total". The amounts of commision are obviously different for each record but when I click in the "TextBox" it totals the values for the record that box is in ONLY, and all records show the same value in this field. I will click in a different box, and it will change, but ALL of them will change. How do a make it so that all "TextBox" field will show their own value.
I'm trying to create a database for a Cattery business.
One thing I'd like to include is a query that calculates how long a cat has been staying at the cattery and then calculating the amount owed by the owner.
I don't have a cost field in any of my tables, so I need to create this on every run of the query.
So for example
A Cat resides in the cattery from the 22nd of Feb to the 28th of Feb. So 6 days (not including the day the cat is brought into the cattery) at a cost of 4.95 a day equals 29.7
Heres what I have so far http://www.tdh1987.co.uk/pics/query.JPG
Bear in mind I'm from the UK, so the date field is in a different format to yours.
I have a table for invoices that need to show Nett, VAT & Total. I have set up a form and have included a calculation on both VAT (Nett*17.5/100) and Total (Nett+VAT) which works well in the form. Because these calculations are in the ControlSource, I do not know how to have these fields bound to the original table.
I am new to Access and have made a databse using Access 2000. This is used for a dart league.
In one of the Tables called Members each "record" is made up of the persons details (Name,address, etc). Included in the Row record I have "fields" (columns) that keep track of the points each person hits on a nightly basis. I also have a Total Field.
Exampleof fields)
ID#,First Name, Last Name, Address, Phone #, Week 1, week 2, week 3, Total
How do I get the Total Field in the record to add up the nightly points in Week 1 + Week 2 + Week 3.?
In Excel it would be a simple calculation (e.g =sum(a1+b1+c1) etc.
As I said I am new to this database and it is very frustrating at the moment. I have used the help function but it mostly double dutch to me.
I have a Size Breakdown with 8 Buckets..I'd like to Sum the contents of the buckets and divide that to Total Yards then have the result saved to a field(Per Garment) in a table (Marker Details Table).Per Garment = Size Breakdown / Total Yards (25 / 7 = 3.57).
I am working on a system to store financial information. I will be extracting our accounts payable journal entries on a monthly basis into Excel. I want to import that data into an Access table. I have several calculations to perform to create new datafields that I need to store in my Access table. Is it possible to perform these calculations as I load the data? If so what the best method to do this? Here is an example. I will be downloading our monthly hardware depreciation and need to split it among departments based on % stored in another Access Table.
I have created a form with a subform and I want to subtract the total of the subform from the total of the form to get a balance; i.e. I have a total of expenses on the form and the subform is a record of payments against the expenses and I want to show a balance.
I have been all over this one and can not make the expression work. I have been working in Access for some time but this one has me stumped, I am probably over thinking it or just can't see the forest for the trees.
I have gone into the expression builder and created the formula but when I complete the process I get the #name? error statement in the field.
Can anyone help me with this problem? Thank you in advance. You can send responses to sharon.dunn@newmont.com.
When a form needs a calculated field. Say something simple, like
TotalCost = Quan*Cost
Is it better to create a query? Use a table and create the calculated field in the query builder? Or use a table and create a new unbound field on the form with the formula in it?
I never really know which one to do.
Lately I’ve been using saved queries for almost everything and now I have several dozen in this data base and its only half way done. Soon I’ll have to create a data base just to keep track of the queries in this one.
I am trying to create an expression that determined by text fields. The field is a PASS for FAIL field. The result needs to =PASS if 70% of the total column is PASS.Can this even be done using an expression?
I am terrible with databases, but have designed a database that uses two text field types and 48 Yes/No check boxes. The two text fields describe documents (name and location), and all the check boxes indicate what types of documents they are.
What I need to do is to be able to run queries or reports where I can select CERTAIN of the Yes/No field types. For example, some of those check box fields are named 1A, 1B, 1C, 2A, 2B, 3A, 3B, 3C, 3D, 3E, 3F, 3G, (up through 8E) etc.
How can I get the query or report to bring up all of the records that have a check mark in either 1A, 1B, "or" 1C plus list the Field 1 and Field 2 that are text fields? I don't want it to list every record in the database, which is what is happening, because I want to then be able to sort the results.
I know it USED to be in my head how to do this, but I just can't seem to get it to work!
My task is to compare our master membership table with a second table, removing matching names in the second table from the master table. (The second table are those individuals who chose not to receive a paper newsletter, so we want to save money and trees :) and not send them one.)
So to remove those names I tried the find unmatched query wizard but that only allows me to chose on one field it seems. There is no single unique identified field that would do this for both tables.
I thought if I built an unmatched query using the fields 'Last_Name' and 'Address1' and 'PostalCode' that should be sufficient for the task.
Here are portions the individual SQL statements that I need to get into one query.
FROM tblAllMembers LEFT JOIN qrySeekbyGroup ON tblAllMembers.Last_Name = qrySeekbyGroup.[Last Name] WHERE (((qrySeekbyGroup.[Last Name]) Is Null));
FROM tblAllMembers LEFT JOIN qrySeekbyGroup ON [tblAllMembers].[Address1] = [qrySeekbyGroup].[Mailing Address Line 1] WHERE ([qrySeekbyGroup].[Mailing Address Line 1] Is Null);
FROM tblAllMembers LEFT JOIN qrySeekbyGroup ON [tblAllMembers].[Postal_Code] = [qrySeekbyGroup].[Postal Code] WHERE ([qrySeekbyGroup].[Postal Code] Is Null);
How is the SQL written so the find unmatched query will use all three of these sections in on query.
Quick questions and I'm sure this is easy enough to warrant a quick response:
I have a query. I have 12 different fields that may or may not have the value "Sabbatical". I want to view only the records that have the value "Sabbatical" in AT LEAST one of those 12 fields.
I am new to MS Access. I am creating a small database for motor vehicle clearance. I have a SEARCH form where i want to put the fields for searching query table:
VEHICLE MAKE:
REF No.:
BEGIN DATE: END DATE:
I need it in such a way that even when only one of the above fields is supplied with data it should still return correct data from the query table.
For dates (BEGIN DATE, END DATE) i tried: Between [forms]![search]![begin date] and [forms]![search]![end date]
This worked well when placed alone of the SEARCH form. But when i added more fields (VEHICLE MAKE, REF No.) the query returned nothing but a blank query table.
Hi! My question is similar to Hondasteed earlier today but a little different. I have a database that has 6 date fields. I would like to develop a query where the user enters a start and end date and the query checks all six of those fields for the appropriate dates and shows only those records who have dates in that range. The dates would change each month as we ran the query again. I would appreciate any help as this has really had me stuck and I'm guessing it's a simple solution. Thanks!
In this table I have two fields Seats Available and Seats Remaining
When I register a student to a Course in the Courses table I would like the corresponding Seats Remaining field for that course to decrease automatically.
I can, of course, run a report or a query to see how many are enrolled in the course and then manually update the Seats Remaining field (which is what I currently do), but I would like this process to be automated each time I register a new student.
