Querying A Memo Field Only Returns Part Of Info
Jun 8, 2005
Hello All
Has anyone ever encoutered a problem where when running a query to return a dataset which includes a memo field, the query only returns part of the info contained in the memo field?
Do queries limit the return of memo field data to 255 characters? I have run other queries on other memo fields in the past, and do not recall ever having this problem.
FYI, there is no indexing, criteria or joins/relationships on the memo field - whilst returning other fields, I purley wanna return whatever is contained in the field.
Any ideas?
Cheers

Hello There,
I wonder if someone can clear up a problem I am having. We have a system under development which is heavily dependent on an existing MS Access database. Some of the queries in the Access version of the application query Memo fields and they work fine within Access.
If I try to use exactly the same query from an ASP/Vbscript web page the query does not return the expected results. I am using ADO and an ODBC DSN connection, all of the other queries seem to work fine.
I have a vague recollection of being told that you can not query Memo fields through an ODBC DSN, or that not all of the Memo field is queried, only the first 255 characters. Can anyone confirm this is true. I have tried searching the web, and some references that I have available, but it seems that there is nothing out there to confirm my suspicions.
Any direction anyone could give me would be hugely appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

I am trying to perform a search function query in access but am having trouble. I have two tables. One table has a column in which I need to search the contents of this field by referencing data in another field/table. I am able to write the query searching the data manually (not referencing the other table) but can't seem to get the query right when referencing the other table!
this query works =
SELECT *
FROM Sample_Data
WHERE (((Sample_Data.[Affected_Frequencies]) Like "*451.425*" Or (Sample_Data.[Affected_Frequencies]) Like "*451.400*"));
but, i put together a frequency table (Table name = Frequencies) and the column within that I am searching for is called Frequency. im trying to reference Frequencies.Frequency using a LIKE statement.

I have a field in my query which returns results based on a formula that is a function of other fields. The results are: Pass and Fail.
I want to make a query that returns only Fail rows. When I enter Fail as the criteria, a parameter box pops up requesting information be entered before continuing.
How can this problem be rectified?

Hi,
Need some help. Here's the problem:-
I've two fields in a table (A & B)
A B
1 Null
2 Null
3 1
4 2
5 3
6 5
7 Null
8 4
9 6
The fields are somehow related where values of B (unique) is taken from A(unique).
I trying to do an SQL such that if I input a single value A=9 or 6 or 5 or 3 or 1, the following should be the output:
A B
9 6
6 5
5 3
3 1
1 Null
Or in another case where I input a single value A=8 or 4 or 2
the following should be the output:
A B
8 4
4 2
2 Null
How can I do that? Many thanks in advance!! :D

Hi,
I use a query to return values between two dates, here's the code I use:
Between [Select Start Date:] And [Select End Date:]
However because my dates are time stamped (they need to be!) the query omits anything on the end date, for example:
Between [01/09/2007] And [05/09/2007] will return values for the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th but not the 5th - because (I think I'm right in thinking this but I might not be!) it only returns values upto midnight on the 4th? so 05/09/2007 13.42pm won't show up because it's after 11.59 on the 4th.
I can't ask people to enter in an extra day because quite alot of people who use our database won't remember and it'll cause alot of problems when they forget and get the wrong figures.
I've tried adding the following:
" & "11:59:59""
onto the code but Access says the expression is typed wrong or is too complicated to be evaluated.
Does anyone know how to fix this code please??
thank you for your time

I have what I think is a difficult problem to overcome...
I am designing a form to create an invoice. The user will select a workstream and a date range in form frmInvByHrs. Within this I want two sub-forms, one is frmInvByHrsTsht and the other is frmInvByHrsBill. I want the first one to display all the staff and their hours done, and the second one to be in data entry mode where you can enter the hours you want to bill. Each sub-form is based on a separate query.
Is it possible to do this? ie. to have one sub-form in data entry mode, and the other not? It seems to me that the data entry mode is controlled by the MAIN form regardless of the sub-form settings!
If this is not possible, do you know how I can acheive this?
Thanks

This is at least the 3rd time I've come across something that is, to me, an extremely serious bug in Access. Anyone else seen this, and anything I can do to avoid it??
In a query, I ask for the values from Field A.
The query returns the values from Field B, but still calls it Field A.
This is in a fairly complex query. If I delete one particular field from the query, the bug disappears. If I put that field back, the bug returns.
Here is my current query:
SELECT ByPN_1.PartNumber, ByPN_1.LostPerSetup, ByPN_1.ActualMachine, ByPN_1.PermQty, ByPN_1.FirstOfFeederSize, ByPN_1.Leaf1, ByPN_1.FirstOfType, ByPN_1.NonPerm, IIf([nonperm]*[concurrentsetups]<1,1,CLng([nonperm]*[concurrentsetups])) AS QtyIfDed, [nonperm]*[setupsperday] AS MaxLoadsSavedPerDay, [qtyifded]*[setupsperday]/[concurrentsetups] AS DedLoadsSavedPerDay, IIf([maxloadssavedperday]<[dedloadssavedperday],[maxloadssavedperday],[dedloadssavedperday]) AS LoadsSavedPerDay, [loadssavedperday]*[laborrate]*[loadunloadperfeeder]*250/60 AS Labor_Annual, master_attr.STD_COST, [loadssavedperday]*[lostpersetup]*[std_cost]*250 AS Parts_Annual
FROM (ByPN_1 LEFT JOIN FeederCost1 ON (ByPN_1.ActualMachine = FeederCost1.Machine) AND (ByPN_1.FirstOfFeederSize = FeederCost1.Size) AND (ByPN_1.FirstOfType = FeederCost1.Type)) LEFT JOIN master_attr ON ByPN_1.PartNumber = master_attr.ITEM
WHERE (((ByPN_1.PartNumber)=107573));
HEre's the pertinent part of the record from BYPN_1:
PartNumberLostPerSetupFirstOfFeederSize
107573 3 12X4
But here's what the query returns:
PartNumberLostPerSetupFirstOfFeederSize
107573 12X4 12X4
Now, if I just delete the "parts_annual" field from the query:
SELECT ByPN_1.PartNumber, ByPN_1.LostPerSetup, ByPN_1.FirstOfFeederSize, ByPN_1.ActualMachine, ByPN_1.PermQty, ByPN_1.Leaf1, ByPN_1.FirstOfType, ByPN_1.NonPerm, IIf([nonperm]*[concurrentsetups]<1,1,CLng([nonperm]*[concurrentsetups])) AS QtyIfDed, [nonperm]*[setupsperday] AS MaxLoadsSavedPerDay, [qtyifded]*[setupsperday]/[concurrentsetups] AS DedLoadsSavedPerDay, IIf([maxloadssavedperday]<[dedloadssavedperday],[maxloadssavedperday],[dedloadssavedperday]) AS LoadsSavedPerDay, [loadssavedperday]*[laborrate]*[loadunloadperfeeder]*250/60 AS Labor_Annual, master_attr.STD_COST
FROM (ByPN_1 LEFT JOIN FeederCost1 ON (ByPN_1.ActualMachine = FeederCost1.Machine) AND (ByPN_1.FirstOfFeederSize = FeederCost1.Size) AND (ByPN_1.FirstOfType = FeederCost1.Type)) LEFT JOIN master_attr ON ByPN_1.PartNumber = master_attr.ITEM
WHERE (((ByPN_1.PartNumber)=107573));
Now the query returns what I expect:
PartNumberLostPerSetupFirstOfFeederSize
107573 3 12X4

I'm quite new to Access and have inherited a database from a colleague. It is a database of references from which we have extracted pesticide active ingredient, pest species and crop species using forms. I am trying to create a query that will allow us to search and return unique active ingredient x pest x crop species combinations (but which will return all instances of this combination).
The complication is that the pest and crop species names are within the same field ('taxa'). They are distinguished by a label ('pest' or 'crop') in an associated field ('PestorPredator'), but a query using 'OR' will only return a crop OR pest, whilst a query using 'AND' will return no records (because something can't be a pest AND and crop).
I want to be able to create a table that shows the active ingredient, associated pest species AND the associated crop species each in separate columns. We have tried a couple of methods, including UNION and UNION ALL....

I have a db tracking vacation times for staff. One of the fields tracks a members vacation start and end dates. I need a way to pull a report to see who is on vacation based on Date() (today).
For example:
A record for John Doe has him start vacation 08/19/2014 and end vacation on 8/28/2014. If I wanted a report that shows who is on vacation today, 08/25/2014, using the date() function), how would I do this?

I have a query, and when I execute it, the correct data set is returned. However one field shows "DELETE" as the value for all records.
when I ran it on the SQL server management studio as a test it ran fine. End user does not have access to the tables, so I created a small MS Access application. When I ran the query in MS Access, then connected table dbo_DocRef > Notes shows a value of DELETED.
What am I missing?

Hi everyone,
I have refined my query from previous threads to involved a module function. This calculates more acurately no of working days between dates and takes into account a holidays table. (All credit to Arvin Meyer on the module:) )
However because the Leave Year starts at the 1 July and finishes 30 Jun I need to compose the date for any current year Year(Now())
Enclosed scrdmp shows my query design. I can easily get it to work as you see it, but obviously as each year rolls over, the year needs to change.
Have looked at many posts but can't find what I'm looking for. This one will get me over the hurdle.
Many thanks,

Hi,
Apologies, I have no idea if this should go in reports, queries, macros or modules and VBA as I'm a bit stuck but hopefully it's fairly simple.
I've been teaching myself access and it's been going well. What I have now been asked to do is produce a report that generates the shift patterns for everyone in the office as an HTML document. Now, the data is all exported from another program and I've had no problem getting the data into access easily. The problem I have is the format some of the data is in.
The major one that I need to solve is showing what time people are meant to take their lunch break each day. The field for break is filled in in the following format.
07/04/2008 12:45:00
Now, I have the date from elsewhere so I really don't want the date to show up so I need something that removes the date from this field. Is this going to be easy to do? (Ideally I'd like it so that the above example actually just returned 12:45 but if it has the 00 on the end that would not be the end of the world)
Apologies if this is in the wrong part of your forum.

I found a thread from last year that is close to solving this question but not 100% so I'll post this new thread.
I have a field called ITEM_NUM in a database with the following structure:
XX-YYYYYYYYY
XX-YYYYY
XX-YYYYYYYYYYYY
I need to extract the Y portion of the data and a Query format would be the best.
FYI, the X portion consists of 2 Letters/numbers then the Hyphen and the Y portion is variable in length.
thanks for your help!

I have joined 3 tables using the query design and I have 3 different fileds. There are fields that have information that I don't need. e.g. I don't want the first 10 characters of field 1. How do I do this in query design (even in SQL view). Or do I need to do this in the table itself before joining the table. Hope my question makes sense. Thanks for any input.

I have a table with names in a field called [Name] in the format Mr John Smith
I need to append the names to another table but to 3 separate fields for title, initial, surname
I know the format for example Left([Name],1) to take only the first letter, but how do I tell it to take from the left up to the first space for the title, how to take between the first and second spaces for the first name etc?
Any help gratefully received

Hi all,
I am trying to update the value of a field from say, "Word" to "Test120+". I am using the SQL code as below....
UPDATE tblTable SET tblTable.Field = "Test120+"
WHERE (((tblTable .Field)="120") AND ((tblCurrent.Field02)="TT"));
But the end results are that the value has been changed to just Test120 !! The plus (+) sign has been excluded. Is there anyway I can force the plus sign to be used in this update query or has Access some sort of bug because the plus sign is used as an arithmetic character that prevents it from being used as a value in a query ?
Any workarounds or advice greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Mitch....
