| Sort customers by postcode and print reports . Julian 23:35:03 |
| | Hi, I am a very beginner in databases. I created a database table in Access 2003 and OOo 2.03 that includes name, address, postcode, phone numbers etc of our customers. I would like to sort customers by areas of London, UK by the first part of the postcode. The London postcodes are the form of E19 4PR, NW5U 4RT. So I would like to print a report (customers arranged into Word tables - normal tables, not database tables) for example which includes the following zones of London: North East, East and South London and which are represented by the following postcodes E(1-18), SE(1-29), SW(1-29). Thanks, Julian

| Remove blank fields from a calculated text box Olveres 20:31:25 |
| | Hi,
I have managed to work out how to add new lines into a calculated text box. However in this text box some of the outcome fields are empty however when previewing the report it includes the blank fields, so each section of the report is the same size, my field is set to can grow/shrink, but I think my inclusion in the code for the calculated box of all 15 outcomes (I have no choice) is what's causing each calculated box to be the same size on the report. Is there a way of making it only select fields where there is text? So some questions will have three outcomes, and be three lines deep, whereas others with more outcomes will be larger boxes in preview, at the moment each box is 15 lines deep regardless of how many of the outcomes actually contain any text or not.
Thanks for any help that comes my way, I'm not the most well versed access user.

| Problem quith query criteria Icony 19:20:09 |
| | Hi everyone,
I have this slq code
slqtext = "SELECT [total_installs].[UnitГ© Administrative] From total_installs, uachoisi WHERE ((([total_installs].[UnitГ© Administrative])='*afe*'));"
which makes a query that only accept values containing "afe". It works perfectly.
Here's the problem : I would like to change the "*afe*" part for the value of a table. Something like "*[table].[value]*" cause the value changes while my program is running. Any ideas ?
Plz excuse my poor english.

| | Hello Access user, do you still use Access 97 and have the problem with permanent 100 percent CPU usage (see MS-KB Q160819) ? This could be very anoying on notebooks or fast machines with loud cooling fans.
I wrote a patch for Access 97 witch addresses this issue.

| Email from Access Guest 18:07:12 |
| | Hi - I am trying to hyperlink to an email address from the fields in my access table. I am sure this must be simple but I can't find it anywhere.
If I set the properties of the field to Hyperlink, it just liks to a webpage. If I prefix the email address with mailto: it works, but I can't expect my users to remember to do that (and I have about 15,000 email address already in there!).
Anyone got any ideas on how to achieve this?
Many thanks

| False row selection in subreport Richard 14:53:32 |
| | I have a Report and subreport where the rows in the Report are selected on a three part primary key. ID,YEAR,PERIOD. The subreport has a data select statement on a second table related to the first with the same three columns ID,YEAR,PERIOD
I have an problem when there is no data for the subreport on PERIOD but there is data for ID,YEAR but the previous PERIOD this is selected. When data exists for the correct PERIOD the previous PERIOD data is not reported (correctly).
I wonder if this might be to do with the underlying relationship in the SQLServer database. I found this did not pre-exist the report creation on my production system (though it exists now)?
Any clues?

| Strange Report Problem Karl Irvin 12:00:41 |
| | When a customer previews an Access report there are no numbers on the report. All the text is there but the numbers are blank. (there are numbers that should be printing)
The font is Arial TT and the report previews/prints OK on many other computers.
I had him check the font on his computer and on the sample numbers printed OK.
Reinstalling our program and Access was no help.
It's an A2000 mde that the customer is using and he has A2003
Any ideas?

| Question about filtering in Data Access Page using a Command Button Guest 11:29:23 |
| | Hi,
I made a simple data access page with a search button that does work properly, but now I would like to add a filtering to the command button also.
Ideal solution would be like this:
When you press the command button it prompts you a search word (text string) and then it filters the record set and shows all the records that match for that search word. I also would like to use wildcards for partial matches. Is this even possible with a command button?
I know that the "Filter by selection" button on the navigation bar does basically the same thing, but the problem is I need to use partial matches (and thus wildcards) because the record text strings are not all similar even if they mean the same thing.
I would also like to know if it's possible to use command button as hyperlinks?
Hopefully somebody can help.
- A.J.

| Embedded printer addresses nrandell via AccessMonster.com 07:51:53 |
| | I'm running Access2000 Have a front end app with 20 users scattered around the state with a back end server db centrally located. Takes a long time for outlying users to load the app. Eventually a message "Cannot find the file ('hull') (or one or its components).Make sure the path and filename correct and that all required librarys are available" displays. When you OK thru this, the app eventually comes up (sometime 5-10 minutes total). In looking inside the app .mdb file, I can see my local network printer (used in development) address embedded 30-40 times. I'm wondering if my outlying users app is trying to locate/attach to my development printer and that is what is causing the error & delay? Any ideas on this? And how would I prevent the front app from carrying my development printer address. I'm lost - thanks for any help.

| Make a single label Chris_huh 03:18:09 |
| | Using the Label Wezard you can easily make labels for all the records in the table, but is there a way to make just one.
I have a form that shows the data from a single recordset and on that form i have a button that i need to be able to link to a label for just that records data.
How can you get the ID for that record to be passed to the label report so that only that one is shown.
Also, i don't know if it is possible, but is there a way to allow the user to select the label to print (i.e. where on the page the label will print) so as to save paper?

| How to retain information from a table that is purged and imported daily. Afr0ninja 03:16:28 |
| | Hello!
I'm fairly new to access, but I'm starting to get the hang of it. This will be a bit lengthy but hopefully it'll have enough information for some kind soul to help me out. I'm currently working on a database where I export data from another program, import the data into access and then run various queries and what not to generate information needed for business planning. I can't link directly to the existing program, so I need to export about 10 reports that I import into Access.
My problem is that in order to keep the data current I have to purge my tables and then import new data to replace the old at least once a day, sometimes twice a day.
To try to track some trends and what not, I need to save some of the information (generally from queries) So I guess my question is... When I import my daily information to the table, how can I take a 'snapshot' of the various queries I run and then store the data into another table? Best ideas I've come up with so far is perhaps making a macro that copies the data into a new table, however if I do that, then I'm going to generate a ton of new tables which would take up a ton of space and would probably prove to be difficult to merge back together if I wanted to make a monthly or yearly summary type report. I've also thought about doing the same thing with excel sheets, but again, ton of sheets, pain to consolidate.
My final thought (and I don't know if this is possible, though probably the easiest solution) is that when I update my reports the main reason for purging the current data, and importing the new is because the new reports generated will have some of the same information as the last report. Each new report could have anywhere from 1 to 1000 new lines of data in addition to the information contained in the last report. Is there an easy way to import the data, have it compare what is already existing in the table, and then append only the new information?
Sorry for the obnoxiously long post, any suggestions or information would be greatly appreciated.

| Minimize Access 2007 Ribbon Guest 03:15:18 |
| | Hi Everybody
I have a 2003 application that I am trying to run under 2007, The code seems to work OK but the Ribbon is a big problem. It just takes up too much space away from the application.
Does anyone know a quick and easy way to code a 'minimize' of the Access 2007 Ribbon when the application starts so that the user cannot restore the Ribbon or use any part of it?
I would have prefered the Ribbon to be made invisible, but I read that this is impossible. Is this true?
Thanks

| IIF statement in query field name expression builder Sbowman 02:03:04 |
| | I'm trying to get a query in access to give me a parsed string if the field contents are not null and the value from another field if the field contents are null. I have the following in the expression builder:
ADID: iff([User Logon Name]<>"", (Left$([User Logon Name],InStr(1,[User Logon Name],"@")-1)), ([Pre-Windows 2000 Logon Name]))
I keep getting the error "undefined function 'iff' in expression"
It's been a looooooong time since i've dealt with Access...please take pity on me!!

| Access ability to create table aliases Rudodoo 00:43:00 |
| | My company uses coldfusion to create web applications and we currently are using TOAD as a front end to creating SQL queries. I was wondering how is Access compared to TOAD on its ability to provide a front end to an Oracle database
Also, does Access have the ability to create table Aliases for whenever you create a query in design view and then view it in SQL view (or does it have the ability to assign table aliases at all)
My dept. uses access 97 but there are others who have access 2000 installed so if you could provide some suggestions using 2000 as a model

| Correllated Subquery, unresolving outer references Guest 23:41:59 |
| | I'm trying to form a correlated subquery (right now, it's MS Access running to linked tables in MS SQL, although I have tried to make the same query against the MS SQL tables directly).
The goal in the query below is to filter out near-duplicates.
What I have is similar rows in my database, and the differences between the different rows lies in a date field. I want to be able to filter out the "newest" dates
What happens is that Access treats all of the references in the subquery as variables to be filled (and so prompts me), but if I use the full table name, it defeats the purpose of a corellated subquery (namely, to be able to use an outer reference).
SELECT dbo_ace_sites.longName, dbo_ace_taskCore.onsiteDate, dbo_ace_taskCore.status FROM dbo_ace_taskCore AS A1, dbo_ace_sites AS A2 WHERE (((A1.site)=[A2].[shortCode]) AND [A1].[onsiteDate] Between DateValue("1/1/2006") and DateValue("7/1/2006") AND (([dbo_ace_taskCore].[onsiteDate]) In (select Max(A1.onsiteDate) FROM dbo_ace_taskCore A3 WHERE A3.shortCode = A1.shortCode )));
I'd love either a explanation of what's going wrong here, or how to fix it, or a link explaining exactly how to write outer references with MS SQL/Access (and the guide at http://www.aspfree.com/c/a/MS-SQL-Server/Subqueries-and-Query-Expressions/2/ isn't the proper syntax).
Thanks

| Referencing problem Guest 23:08:01 |
| | I have code in the OnExit event of a control on a subform. The code works properly in this instance. If, however, I put the same code in the OnExit event of a control on a Tab Control of a main form, the code errors out at the 2nd line. The error number is 13 and the description is "Type mismatch". Both controls are memo fields. I suspect that "Screen.ActiveControl.Parent" is not referencing the form as intended.
Thanks for any help, Mark
