What I am trying to do is split a sentence into words Like
Jocelyne Labylle And Jacob Desvarieux
This would produce 4 words as the and,&,/ Ect are removed
So I end up with:-
Jocelyne
Labylle
Jacob
Desvarieux
If all 4 words are found in a string it returns all matching records plus gets 100%
3 words again returns all matching records plus say 75% and so on
I haven't done a lot with it at the min as the first bit is quite simple IE getting the names Etc. but I can't think for the life of me how I can do the search.
I Have Tried a query With [Names] Like ""*[String Names]*""" but it seems to only work with each letter???
but my main reason for asking here is I don't like reinventing the wheel or at least trying to which will mean hours of Fun but maybe somebody knows of something I could use on the net.
I've successfully created, for the first time, a database with many attributes that is searchable by most of those attributes as well. I've finally gotten the swing of how tables, forms, queries, and macros link up and am understanding how MSA works.
I can't seem to find any information on here that tells me how to do wildcard searches. For my particular application, people enter items into the database in a nonstandard fashion, i.e. "oring," "o-ring," and "o ring." I need to enable the capability to search "ring" so my search functions are fully maximized.
Hi, i am designing a database but i need to do a query which will search for a specific word and bring up all the details regarding this this. An example is i need to search for the drug panacur to see which animal use this treatment, i then want it to bring the name and address oof the client as well as any other details. I just do not know how to search for a specific word. please help!! Thanks
Hi there, I am currently working on our intranet at work and am creating an Access database so we can record all of the box files at our storage facility.
One of the fields is called 'contents', which is a Memo field, where the person who is inputting the data will describe what is in the box. They will then use the autonumber generated by the database to label that box.
That way we can locate the boxes much easier than at the moment.
I have created a results page with a search box at the top using ASP in Dreamweaver CS3 and it works fine if I replicate EXACTLY what is written in the contents memo field.
ie: if the contents field for record number one reads
'Archived box of insurance documents dating back to 1999'
I would need to type in that exact phrase to pull that info back.
What I want it to do is if I was to put in '1999' or 'insurance' then it would return the same result (and others with those specific words).
What do I need to do in my code?
Here is the current code
Code:<%Dim rs__MMColParamrs__MMColParam = "1"If (Request.QueryString("content") <> "") Then rs__MMColParam = Request.QueryString("content") End If%><%Dim rsDim rs_cmdDim rs_numRowsSet rs_cmd = Server.CreateObject ("ADODB.Command")rs_cmd.ActiveConnection = MM_intranet_STRINGrs_cmd.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM archive WHERE content = ?" rs_cmd.Prepared = truers_cmd.Parameters.Append rs_cmd.CreateParameter("param1", 200, 1, 255, rs__MMColParam) ' adVarCharSet rs = rs_cmd.Executers_numRows = 0%><%Dim Repeat1__numRowsRepeat1__numRows = -1Dim Repeat1__indexRepeat1__index = 0rs_numRows = rs_numRows + Repeat1__numRows%><%Dim MM_paramName %><%' *** Go To Record and Move To Record: create strings for maintaining URL and Form parametersDim MM_keepNoneDim MM_keepURLDim MM_keepFormDim MM_keepBothDim MM_removeListDim MM_itemDim MM_nextItem' create the list of parameters which should not be maintainedMM_removeList = "&index="If (MM_paramName <> "") Then MM_removeList = MM_removeList & "&" & MM_paramName & "="End IfMM_keepURL=""MM_keepForm=""MM_keepBoth=""MM_keepNone=""' add the URL parameters to the MM_keepURL stringFor Each MM_item In Request.QueryString MM_nextItem = "&" & MM_item & "=" If (InStr(1,MM_removeList,MM_nextItem,1) = 0) Then MM_keepURL = MM_keepURL & MM_nextItem & Server.URLencode(Request.QueryString(MM_item)) End IfNext' add the Form variables to the MM_keepForm stringFor Each MM_item In Request.Form MM_nextItem = "&" & MM_item & "=" If (InStr(1,MM_removeList,MM_nextItem,1) = 0) Then MM_keepForm = MM_keepForm & MM_nextItem & Server.URLencode(Request.Form(MM_item)) End IfNext' create the Form + URL string and remove the intial '&' from each of the stringsMM_keepBoth = MM_keepURL & MM_keepFormIf (MM_keepBoth <> "") Then MM_keepBoth = Right(MM_keepBoth, Len(MM_keepBoth) - 1)End IfIf (MM_keepURL <> "") Then MM_keepURL = Right(MM_keepURL, Len(MM_keepURL) - 1)End IfIf (MM_keepForm <> "") Then MM_keepForm = Right(MM_keepForm, Len(MM_keepForm) - 1)End If' a utility function used for adding additional parameters to these stringsFunction MM_joinChar(firstItem) If (firstItem <> "") Then MM_joinChar = "&" Else MM_joinChar = "" End IfEnd Function%>
I have to tables, where if data in one field is in both tables I don't want the row to be shown in my query. I have triede with a IIf sentence, but I can't get it to work.
I should find the position of a number in a sentence and later extracted. The number is attached always to an "E". ie: E1, E2, E3,E4. The range of the number is 1-4. I have this until now:
I'm completely new to Microsoft Access. This project was thrown my way. I have an accounting database to track payables, receivables, financials, and deliquencies/collections. Is there a way to generate a report for any of the items in the previous sentence that haven't been completed to keep track of workload.
How to match 4 character word or number or combination by identical 4 characters word or number or combination in one word have 10 or 15 characters.
I have to two separate tables (Table A and Table B). Table A has one column (Tag No) and Table B has about 15 columns with one column name Tag No as below
Table A
Table B
Tag No
Tag No

They're both in MS Access.I am trying to match 2 tables - columns (Tag No) with join query, but not success. I want to match 4 characters in Table-A with 4 similar characters in Table-B (Tag No) cell.What query is suitable to compare two tables.
My end goal is to populate a pre-existing table in an MS Word document with records from a query. The easiest way I've found (through scouring the internet) is to start with the code below (ran during OnClick() even in Access) to get the table the same size as the recordset:
Code: Dim wDoc As Word.Document Dim wTable As Word.Table Dim wCell As Word.Cell Set wDoc = appWord.Documents.Add(strDocLoc) wDoc.Visible = True
[Code] ....
The code will shrink the table down just fine if the table has more rows than the recordset +1 (for header column). My hangup with this is the last line ("Selection.InsertRowsBelow 5") isn't executing; rows are not being added to the table. I get no errors -- it just does nothing. I set it as "Selection.InsertRowsBelow 5" arbitrarily just to see if it would even add rows, and sure enough it's not.
I have a combo box that is filtering a form. The combo box contains employee's last name. However, the field that it is looking up can contain more than one name (e.g., possibilities include just Smith, Smith & Johnson, Smith & Jones & Johnson, etc.).
Thus, when I click on the combo box, I want all records containing "Smith" to show up. However, I have only been able to bring up exact matches. Here is my code. Thanks in advance.
Dim strSQL As String Dim strSQLSF As String

I'm comparing two tables in a query, the tables are information that was imported from other sources. When I compare the tables, I'm trying to get a one to one result (a reconciliation of sorts). The problem is that there are duplicate line items in one of the tables that may or may not be valid, but all are considered matched. How can I create my query to match to only one line item and leave the others unmatched for analysis? I've tried everything but VBA (of which I have little experience in). Any suggestions?
I have a form that shows a customer number and a dollar amount. In a subform, I want to show all the records with that customer number that are "close" to the dollar amount. For this purpose close can be INT(amt1) = INT(amt2). But I can't figure out how to put that in the parent/child relationship on the sub-form.
I am trying to find company matches between 2 tables. The issue I have is that the spellings on table A differs from table B.Some of the differences are minimal like "St. Annes" and "St Annes". And some really big "St. Annes" and "Annes, ST London".
I have created a table which holds transactions which can be both positive and negative. To this table i have added an extra column that shows the Absolute values which end results is as follows:
I need to create a table that shows those positive and negative transactions that can be netted of. I have been able to create a query with the following SQL code:
Code:
SELECT tbl_All_Absolute.[Posting Account], tbl_All_Absolute.Jnl, tbl_All_Absolute.CCYY, tbl_All_Absolute.PP, tbl_All_Absolute.[Batch Num], tbl_All_Absolute.[Trans Num], tbl_All_Absolute.[Detail Reference], tbl_All_Absolute.Amount, tbl_All_Absolute.RFPNum, tbl_All_Absolute.[Transaction Ref 1], tbl_All_Absolute.[Transaction Ref 2], tbl_All_Absolute.[Transaction Ref 3], tbl_All_Absolute.[Transaction Ref 4], tbl_All_Absolute.Expr1 FROM tbl_All_Absolute WHERE (((tbl_All_Absolute.Expr1) In (SELECT [Expr1] FROM [tbl_All_Absolute] As Tmp GROUP BY [Expr1] HAVING Count(*)>1 )));
Unfortunately (but obviously) the code will list 3x the 50,000 transactions and leaves out the 49.995.
My knowledge in Access is not that of an expert and i am wondering if there is a way for Access to only include the first 2 transactions (the +50.000 and the -50.000)?
I have a database that keeps track of customers by last name, first name and various other information. I have the combo box setup so that I can type in a last name and it brings up my results. The problem is that it only brings up the first match and doesn't let me browse through all the matches. The last name and first name are seperate fields so if I look for a last name that more than one customer has like smith it only takes me to the first match. Is there any way to make it filter all the names that aren't matches out of the combo box as the values are typed in?
I currently have an unbound form I am using as a switchboard. When a button is pressed it loads a form asking for the user to enter their password (the swtichboard is then closed). If the correct password is entered the form opens to their details, when that form is closed, the swtichboard re-opens. I want an action that if the correct password is not used, then a msgbox lets them know and then the Switchboard they were at re-opens. So far I have the following code:
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer) If Me.Recordset.RecordCount = 0 Then MsgBox "Incorrect Password!" Cancel = True End If End Sub
This works well, but I am unsure how to write that after the msgbox I want the Switchboard to open. I tried to add "DoCmd.OpenForm frmSwitchMain" in various places, but I am unsure on the proper procedure to do this.
I have a table from an excel sheet that comes in the format above with up to 5000 rows in record groups from 1 to 10 rows in each. The repeating data is how it comes from our all singing and dancing case recording software and I can’t change that fact.
Take a group of records with the same TradingName such as “The Herriots” group, There should be one row in the group where FdInspAction = LastInspDate (in this case 06/01/2007) . In this group there is no match so we need to identify the group. The “Bloggs” group is fine (see Row 8) so can be ignored.
My feeling is it can’t be done other than by visual checking. Can anyone think of a way around this?
Hi all, I'm new to this forum. I'm having a problem with a query I'm trying to create.
I have two tables in the database: tblCustomers and tblInstallations. These two tables are linked by a field 'CustomerID'. CustomerID is the Primary Key in tblCustomers. In tblInstallations, the primary key is InstID and for each CustomerID in tblInstallations there are either 1 or 3 InstID records.
Now what I want to do is create a query with fields: Customer; CustomerID; InstID1; InstID2; InstID3. InstID1 will contain the first InstID for the CustomerID, and InstID2 & InstID3 will contain the second and third, if applicable.
I see in Query Design View in the 'Totals' line there is a option to display the 'First' and 'Last' match for a field. So is there any way i can use this method and also display the second record? If not, is there any other way to make this query work?
In my Patients table i have a field called PatientID (AUTONUMBER) as my primary key I hve another problem. Is this possible as i hve been trying for two days now. I hve tried a lot of ways but i cant get it to work right. I have a table called dependents. ID , PatientID,,Dependents,DOB,Age id being the PK AND PatientID as a number I have a table called vitals. with ID,PatientID,PatientName( which is a dropdown of Dependents), hpp,sats etc. (This is a subform in datasheet style in another form)
In my table vitals i have the follwing for PatientName . comboxbox.
SELECT Dependents.Dependents, DateDiff("yyyy",[DOB],Now())+Int(Format(Now(),"mmdd")<Format([DOB],"mmdd")) AS Age FROM Dependents;
So it selects fine in a dropdown like John 48, smith 36.
The problem i have is that it selcts all the records irrespective of PatientID.
I have to two tables and I was add data to second table only if the field matches. Lets I have two fields site and recid on both and I want to update site on the second table only if recid from the first table matches the recid from the second table.
I have a table with records for products from each sales region (4 regions, N, NE, S, W). The table has the following fields: Region, Product Name, Product Description, Category, Business Line, and Supplier.
While the Product name is consistent across the regions the description, category, bus.line and supplier may have slightly different entries in each region. I need to build a query that when any of the Product Description, Category, Business Line, and Supplier fields do not match across divisions for each Product Name will display all the records for that Product Name. Any ideas?
I have been given a list of UK postcodes, with the following format L15TG or TS14TGU.
I need to be able to match these postcodes to a list of postcodes I have stored in the database, however, my list are only UK outcodes, so L15TG is just L1 and TS14TGU is just TS14.
So I need to match the records and return the part of the string that matches i.e take L1 from L15TG.
A charity has a client file (over 700 clients) that will have records that need editing. The user is presented with a form(1) holding a text box to enter the parameter (Client Surname) for a query. They can use starting letters and wildcards to narrow a search e.g. Jo*The click a command button that opens another form(2) based on a query that uses the parameters from the first form.
This Works just as planed if matches are found. If not, it displays a blank/new record. I want to either 1) stop the blank form being displayed 2) tell the user that their query was unsuccessful. I Do not want them to use this facility to CREATE a NEW Client record.
The parameter query is working fine and form(2) shows the matching records, it's reacting to a situation where no records are found, that is my problem.
I have table A with a list of Work Instruction references (WIREF) and a Issue number (ISSNO).I have Table B wth employees and they too have a Work Instruction (empWIREF) and Issue number (empISSNO).I want to check if the Work instruction Issue has changed since the employee was trained
