SQL Query to Access Query

try to place () on segments of criteria; WHERE (p.SvcDate BETWEEN '03/19/2015' AND '06/17/2015') AND (p.PayCode '37')  AND (e.Active = 'Y')  - not sure will fix

I have the following Query in Access and as it is, it works. I needed to add a new modifier to the "WHERE" clause of "Payroll.PayCode '37' so that it is not taking that paycode into account. Once I added that modifier, the entire query quit working stating that the query was to complex. I proceeded to struggle with the query for a while and eventually broke down and completely recreated the query in MS SQL where I have it working with the Modifier. Once I moved it to Access 2013 I get the same error that the Query is to complex. Could someone please help me out with this. Here is my SQL Query.SQLSELECT p.EmployeeNumber, e.Fname, e.Lname, e.Address, e.City, e.ST, e.Zip, e.DOH, e.DOT, e.DOB, e.[Mrtl Status],e.jobTitle, e.Dept, ROUND(SUM((p.PayUnit)/13),0) AS [13 Week Avg], eb.Eligible, eb.[Agreement Received], eb.[Benefits Term Date],...

  • Convert SQL Server ROW_NUMBER() OVER(PARTITION BY() Query to Access

    Hi,
    I am having trouble with converting this SQL Server query to Access. If anyone can give me help I would appreciate it.
    SELECT B.AMOUNT_REQUESTED, B.INIT_OFF, B.MBR_NBM, B.STATUS, B.APPLICATION_NBR
    FROM
    SELECT AMOUNT_REQUESTED, INIT_OFF, MBR_NBM, STATUS, APPLICATION_NBR, ROW_NUMBER() OVER(PARTITION BY MBR_NBM ORDER BY MBR_NBM) RN
    FROM LOAN_DATA
    WHERE APPLICATION_DATE BETWEEN '20150420' AND '20150425'
    ) B
    WHERE RN = 1
    ORDER BY B.MBR_NBM

    While there is no equivalent to ROW_NUMBER(), it appears that you are just wanting the first row of each group, and that CAN be accomplished in Access, but I do wonder why you would WANT to do that in Access if your data is stored in SQL Server.  As
    Tom indicated a Pass Through query object is likely your best bet -- or a View in SQL Server, then create a Linked Table object that points to it.
    To get the first of each group ... which is essentially a TOP n, where n = 1 ... so .. the first thing you will want to indentify is a second field to use as a Key in order to define the "first" row you want in the group.  In your SQL
    statement, you are ordering my mbr_nbm, so the secondary sort is unknown -- likely predicable, but unknown with out knowledge of the schema ... so, I will provide samples by using APPLICATION_DATE as the sort key.
    This one is the "first" of a series with the assumption that the one you want is the one with the "biggest"/"most recent" APPLICATION_DATE. 
    SELECT vLoanData.AMOUNT_REQUESTED, vLoanData.INIT_OFF, vLoanData.MBR_NBM, vLoanData.STATUS, vLoanData.APPLICATION_NBR
    FROM LOAN_DATA As vLoanData
    INNER JOIN
    (SELECT MBR_NBM, Max(APPLICATION_DATE) As LastAppDate
    FROM LOAN_DATA As vLast
    GROUP BY MBR_NBM) As vLastApp ON vLoanData.MBR_NBM = vLastApp.MBR_NBM And vLoadData.APPLICATION_DATE = vLastApp.LastAppDate
    Or ... the following is a TOP n query where n = 1.
    SELECT vLoanData.AMOUNT_REQUESTED, vLoanData.INIT_OFF, vLoanData.MBR_NBM, vLoanData.STATUS, vLoanData.APPLICATION_NBR
    FROM LOAN_DATA As vLoanData
    WHERE (vLoanData.MBR_NBM & '|' & vLoanData.APPLICATION_DATE)
    IN (SELECT TOP 1 (vCorrelated.MBR_NBM & '|' & vCorrelated.APPLICATION_DATE) As Key
    FROM LOAN_DATA As vCorrelated
    WHERE vCorrelated.MBR_NBM = vLoanData.MBR_NBM
    ORDER BY vCorrelated.MBR_NBM, vCorrelated.APPLICATION_DATE DESC)
    This second example is not going to win you any points with respect to speed, but is truly a closer model to the TOP N type thing you are doing in SQL Server.
    Hope that helps!

  • MS Access Query to Oracle

    Hi Gurus
    I am trying to convert a MS Access query to Oracle query, Having some trouble Need some help Please.
    This is the MS Access Query:
    Sum(IIf(LOAD1!ARRIVDATE<+Date()+7,LOADLINE1!QTY,0)/ITEM1!UOM) AS Loadtbl
    What would be the Oracle Query???
    Thank you

    Hello,
    well, the problem is the name of the column, ARRIVDATE< - while MS Access allows the "<" inside a column name, Oracle doesn't if you don't be careful. Please see this:
    SQL> create table testtab1 (arrivdate varchar2(100));
    Table created.
    SQL> desc testtab1
    Name Null? Type
    ARRIVDATE VARCHAR2(100)
    SQL> create table testtab2 (arrivdate< varchar2(100));
    create table testtab2 (arrivdate< varchar2(100))
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-00902: invalid datatype
    But this works:
    SQL> create table testtab2("ARRIVDATE<" varchar2(100));
    Table created.
    SQL> desc testtab2
    Name Null? Type
    ARRIVDATE< VARCHAR2(100)
    So your query might work if you put ARRIVDATE< in double quotes:
    Sum(DECODE(LOAD1."ARRIVDATE<"+SYSDATE+7,LOADLINE1.QTY,0)/ITEM1.UOM) AS Loadtbl
    Regards

  • Mail merge doesn't see all records in Access query

    Office 13 running on Win 8.1.
    I have a query in Access that show 4 records when I run it. If I specify this query as my data source (select recipients) and then choose to edit the recipient list, there are only two records! The query in Access looks like this:
    SELECT Membership.[m-nbr], Membership.[m-first], Membership.[m-member-since], Membership.[m-pick], Contact.[c-zip], Regions.[r-region-name], Regions.[r-region-director], Regions.[r-region-email], Membership.[m-member-since], Associates.[a-first-name], Associates.[a-id]
    FROM ((Membership INNER JOIN Contact ON Membership.[m-nbr] = Contact.[c-nbr]) INNER JOIN (Regions INNER JOIN [Region/State] ON Regions.[r-region] = [Region/State].[rs-region]) ON Contact.[c-state] = [Region/State].[rs-state]) LEFT JOIN Associates ON Membership.[m-nbr]
    = Associates.[a-nbr]
    WHERE (((Membership.[m-pick])=True) AND ((Associates.[a-id]) Like "*A" Or (Associates.[a-id]) Is Null) AND ((Year([m-member-since]))=Year(Date())))
    ORDER BY Contact.[c-zip]; 
    If I remove this part: "((Associates.[a-id) Like "*A" Or (Associates.[a-id] is Null AND" then all 4 records show up in the recipient list.
    In short, members can have multiple associates, but only the"A" associate is to be included in this letter. (associates have the same number as the member, with an a,b,c etc. appended. A member number could be 8741 and an associate number 8741A. 
    Why is this happening? Thanks, ~Steve

    Hmm, I tend to work in SQL mode when creating queries in Access - in that case, it doesn't change what you write. But I see that in the tabular Design mode it does change to ALIKE and that it works OK - something I wasn't aware of. I read that ALIKE is supposed
    to allow "%" and "_" even when the database is in "Jet mode. 
    FWIW in ANSI mode, I would not expect LIKE "%a" to work in Access but it should work from OLE DB
    But in any case, it still works OK here, so still not sure what is wrong.
    As a workaround, it might be necessary either to export the query results from Access, then use the exported data as your source, use the query to create a new table and use that as the data source, or connect using DDE (to do that, in Word, you have to
    check Options->Advanced->General->Confirm file format conversion on open. Then go through the connection process again and select the .accdb/.mdb. If it's a .accdb, you will have also have to check "Show all" when you get to the "Confirm Data Source"
    dialog box. At that point, you need to select the "MS Access Databases via DDE" option from the list (even if you have a .accdb, which isn't listed in the file types for that connection method).
    All of these approaches have their disadvantages (e.g. DDE may not connect easily and probably won't return Unicode data correctly) but may at least give you another avenue of investigation.

  • Help with Converting an Access query

    Hello:
    First time poster and would appreciate some help in converting this Access query into T-SQL so I can use in a Stored Procedure. I don't need help in resolving the syntax for the variables as parameter in the second query, but stuck in writing the first query
    in T-SQL . I assume I need some type of nested query with a left join to another query in T-SQL. 
    How do I convert this from Access into MS-SQL
    SELECT TBL_MONTH.L_Month, TBL_MONTH.L_MonthName
    FROM TBL_MONTH LEFT JOIN qry_MonthCheck ON TBL_MONTH.L_Month = qry_MonthCheck.L_Month
    WHERE (((qry_MonthCheck.L_Month) Is Null));
    qryMonthCheck in Access is defined as
    SELECT TBL_MONTH.L_Month, TBL_SIGNOFF.SO_YEAR, TBL_SIGNOFF.SO_USER, TBL_SIGNOFF.SO_LOCATION
    FROM TBL_MONTH RIGHT JOIN TBL_SIGNOFF ON TBL_MONTH.L_Month = TBL_SIGNOFF.SO_MONTH
    WHERE (((TBL_SIGNOFF.SO_YEAR)=[forms]![frm_signoff]![cboyear]) AND ((TBL_SIGNOFF.SO_LOCATION)=[Tempvars]![tmpVarUserLOC]));

    It is very much up to personal taste. For tables I use no prefix at all. Or suffix. I prefer plural: categories, products, etc. For junction tables, I drop the plural in the first entity, for instance productcategories. As for the case, many people prefer
    initial uppercase, while I go for lowercase only. But initial uppercase has its points, particularly in documentation. I am a staunch advocate of using case-sensitive collation for metadata. I don't see any point in mixing productcategories, Productcategories,
    ProductCategories etc. That can only cause confusion.
    As for either entities, I don't use views much, and I don't have any prefix for these either. In fact, several views I've been involved used to be tables once upon a time.
    If you want to add a marker to the object name, I recommend using a suffix. It is much easier to find objects in the version control system and other browser, when not everything is cluttered on the same letter. For instance, I typically add _sp at the end
    of stored procedure names.

  • Random results with  random access query

    Hi,
    when I execute a random access query
    (fetchConfig.setResultSetType(ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE);
    fetchConfig.setFetchDirection(ResultSet.FETCH_UNKNOWN)) and iterate over the
    result set twice, the second time the objects are retrieved in a different
    order, also when I set the ordering of the objects. This only happens if the
    first loop touches the last item. If not, everything works fine. I am using
    MS Sql Server, microsoft driver, kodo 3.4
    regards,
    Christiaan

    Hi,
    I am using datastore identity. I do implement equals and hashcode in the
    super class, not sure whether that is of any impact. The order of the items
    look random to me, however it stays constant after the second loop. The same
    order is also produced when I re-start the test application. The output
    shows the index of the object I am retrieving, the description of the object
    (which is also the order in which the items are created) and their order
    attribute. The query sorts on the order attribute. As you can see the first
    loop is correct. I now and then have the situation where the last item in
    the first loop (retrieve 7) results in the first item (item nr 0) being
    retrieved. Same behaviour applies for both jtds and microsoft driver.
    first loop:
    retrieve 0: item nr: 0 order: 0
    retrieve 1: item nr: 1 order: 1
    retrieve 2: item nr: 2 order: 2
    retrieve 3: item nr: 3 order: 3
    retrieve 4: item nr: 4 order: 4
    retrieve 5: item nr: 5 order: 5
    retrieve 6: item nr: 6 order: 6
    retrieve 7: item nr: 7 order: 7
    second loop
    retrieve 0: item nr: 3 order: 3
    retrieve 1: item nr: 6 order: 6
    retrieve 2: item nr: 7 order: 7
    retrieve 3: item nr: 0 order: 0
    retrieve 4: item nr: 5 order: 5
    retrieve 5: item nr: 4 order: 4
    retrieve 6: item nr: 2 order: 2
    retrieve 7: item nr: 1 order: 1
    third loop
    retrieve 0: item nr: 3 order: 3
    retrieve 1: item nr: 6 order: 6
    retrieve 2: item nr: 7 order: 7
    retrieve 3: item nr: 0 order: 0
    retrieve 4: item nr: 5 order: 5
    retrieve 5: item nr: 4 order: 4
    retrieve 6: item nr: 2 order: 2
    retrieve 7: item nr: 1 order: 1

    Christiaan-
    My first guess is are you using application identity, and if so, are you
    correctly implementing the equals() and hashCode() method? Failure to do
    so may conceivably cause this problem.
    Otherwise, can you provide some details about how the results are our of
    order? It it exactly reverse or something, or are elements in random
    order?

  • SSMS Addin - How To Access Query Results Grid

    Hi,
    I want to access Query Result Grid(Results) in SSMS addin but I did'nt found anything.
    How can I access Query Result Grid, Rows, Columns and Cells when I executed a script?
    Thanks.

    SQL Server Management Studio currently supports query execution results to be displayed in three different ways: Results to Grid,
    Results to Text and Results to File.
    By default SQL Server Management Studio is configured to display query results in
    Grid format.  If you want to change the default to some other option follow these steps.
    1. In SQL Server Management Studio, under Tools menu, click
    Options as shown in the snippet below.
    2. In the Options dialog box, expand Query Results, expand
    SQL Server and then select General as shown in the snippet below. In the right side panel choose one of the three options shown below in the
    Default Destination for results drop down list and click
    OK to save the changes as shown in the snippet below. The changes will go into effect once you open a New Query window.
    Query Result Options for Results to Text
    In this format you have the option to display the results in a different tab as well as setting different output options.
    In the Options dialog box, expand Query Results, expand
    SQL Server and then select Results to Text tab as shown in the snippet below. In the right side panel first select the checkbox for
    Display results in a separate tab and then select the checkbox for
    Switch to results tab after the query executes and then click
    OK. If you would like to also display the column name in the result set then choose the option Include column headers in the result set
    as shown in the snippet below.
    The options you can use in the Text format are:
    Output format: - In the above snippet you could see that by default the output is displayed as columns aligned. Some of the other options that are available are Comma Delimited,
    Tab Delimited, Space Delimited and Custom Delimited. If you choose the Custom Delimited option in the Output format drop down list then you need to specify a character of your choice for the delimiter in the
    Custom delimiter text box.
    Include column headers when copying or saving the results: - If this option is selected, then whenever the results are copied to clipboard or it is saved to a file the column headers are also copied along with the results.
    Include the query in the result set: - The text of the query is displayed as part of query output under the messages tab.
    Scroll as results are received: - If this option is selected, then the display focuses on the most recently returned records at the end of the results set.
    Right align numeric values: - If this option is selected, then numeric values will be aligned to the right of the column.
    Discard results after query executes: - If this option is selected, then the query results are not displayed in the reviewing pane.
    Display results in a separate tab: - If this option is selected, then the result set after query execution will be displayed in a new tab instead of at the bottom of the query window.
    Switch to results tab after the query executes: - If this option is selected, then after the query execution the screen focus will be set to the results tab.
    Maximum number of characters displayed in each column: - This sets the maximum characters to display for any one column.  So if you have a column that is 500 characters this will only show the first 256 if you keep the default setting.

  • Access Query to Oracle View Tool

    We have a Access Database which creates forms and reports. It has lots of queries. we want the similar funtionalities in Oracle. Is there any tool that will convert these access queries to Oracle views. I used Migration workbench to convert the database but it can't convert the query.

    FYI,
    Microsoft Access is using ANSI SQL. And Oracle has introduced ANSI SQL from Oracle 9i so, it is also in 10g.
    Oracle 10g does not stop backward compatibilty so, It is depends on person. And I am not forcing you to migrate query from ACCESS to Oracle. I have simply answer the question which you have asked. Whether you want to perform efficiently or not it's your choice.
    But one thing is sure, ORACLE (9i or 10g) provides ANSI SQL and MS ACCESS is using ANSI sql so, this task is feasible. No doubt about it.

  • Wildcard for Access Query

    Hi,
    I am trying to fetch records from Access database. I am having an error with the LIKE clause applied to the query. My query is something like below
    Select A from tablename where B like '??ABCD??OR?'
    The question marks is a wildcard, this can hold alpha numberic character.  When I tried executing this query directly in access it works fine. But when I execute this in DIAdem it shoots up an error telling "Exception Occured" when the record is fetched. I tried replacing the ? with * but this does not go through either. Can you help me out how to resolve this issue?
    Thanks in advance,
    Priya

    Hello Priya!
    Assuming you use ADO to connect to Access you have  to use '_' and '%' as wildcards for the common '?' / '*'. This is nothing DIAdem specific, it is common for SQL!
    I can't reproduce the error you got. How do you open the connection?

  • Sending email using PL/SQL based on a query result

    Hello all,
    I want to create a procedure using PL/SQL, based on a query result.Here is the scenario:
    I have multiple tables in Target and Source databases that I want to compare(not the whole table but queries on these tables) and if they differ, I want to shoot an email. I have some ideas how to implement this but not sure whether it is the best approach.
    select Acct_id, total from SourceTableA
    minus
    select Acct_id, total from TargetTableA
    select Acct_id, sum from SourceTableB
    minus
    select Acct_id, sum from TargetTableB
    If the result of any of above queries > 0 then I want to shoot an email and want to repeat this procedure in the morning every day.
    I know how to implement send_mail procedure using UTL_SMTP package and how to schedule tha job by dbms_job package. But I am not sure how to implement the result of minus query. In case if minus > 0 then I also want to send the name of tables in the email message where source and target tables are not same. Should i use cursor, variable or insert the result in a new table? any help would be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
    Khan

    Actually these queries are the part of our daily testing that we run everyday manually(after the scheduled ETL load) to see if there are any discrepencies between our datawarehouse tables and source tables. So instead of running these queries manually everyday we want to schedula a procedure that will shoot an email in case of any discrepency and indicate which tables have problems.

  • Create a view based off a query in Access WebApp

    I'm trying to create a summary view based on a query.  The query is being used to make a simple join two tables.  I don't have an issue creating a datasheet or list view off the query, but when I try to create a summary view, I'm unable to
    create it.
    From the desktop app, I'm able to click on the plus sign to add a new view, give it a name, choose the type and select my record source.  When I click on "Add New View" nothing happens.  I do not get any progress dialog box as I do for
    other views.  The popup for the "Add New View" simply disappears.  Is this the expected behavior?
    Based on this thread I don't think so.

    Again, this is a simple query table 1 has 8 colums, all of them are simple text except for one lookup column that includes the data with the table, one column stores the a primary key from the second table.  The second table is a simple table with
    3 columns. 
    Is this a limitation of the Access Web App?

    Hi,
    You should be able to create a new summary view off a saved query. The behavior you describe sounds very odd but I’m not able to repro this on my computer. Could
    you try something for me? Try and create a new summary view and use a table as its record source. Does that get created OK?

    The expression...

    NVL(PRINCIPAL, 0) - NVL(PRORATED_TRANAMT, 0)Does that answer your question?
    As for...
    IIf(IsNull(PAR_FLAG), "N", IIf(PAR_FLAG&lt;&gt;"N", "P", PAR_FLAG))...you might try...

    ====================
    declare
    l_return_stmt varchar2(32767);
    l_select varchar2(32000);
    l_from varchar2(32000);
    l_where varchar2(32000);
    l_order_by varchar2(32000);
    l_stmt_recordcount varchar2(32000);
    l_recordcount number ;
    begin
    l_select := 'select '||:P10_VARLIST1||:P10_VARLIST2||:P10_VARLIST3
    ||:P10_VARLIST4||:P10_VARLIST5;
    l_from := ' from '||:P10_RELATION;
    if length(:P10_WHERE) > 0 then
    l_where := ' where '||:P10_WHERE;
    else
    l_where := '';
    end if;
    if length(:P10_ORDER_BY) > 0 then
    l_order_by := ' order by '||:P10_ORDER_BY;
    else
    l_order_by := '';
    end if;
    l_return_stmt := l_select||l_from||l_where||l_order_by;
    :P10_STMT := l_return_stmt;
    return l_return_stmt;
    end;
    =============================
    Appreciate your help in this regard.
    thanks/kumar

    It looks like the query string you are trying to pass back exceeds the 32K limit for a varchar. Where this is happening is kind of difficult to tell as it could be any number of points, and also depends on what you are passing into the process via page items.
    I would first try to establish what combination of page items causes this error to occur. Then, starting from the bottom and working your way backwards, I would start 'switching off' some of the items you use to build your query until it breaks again, thus establishing which part is leading to the error.
    Also, I'm not sure what :P10_STMT is doing (are you maybe using this for visiblity of the query created)?
