    Need help with SQL in an Access query that has UNION for the non-relational queries/tables

    Hi: I tried it but it would not open and instead I got the following error message: The ORDER BY expression (IIf(Title='Total:','zzzz',LastName)) includes fields that are not selected by the query. Only those fields requested in the first query can be included in an OREDER BY expression. I...

    Need help with SQL in an Access query that has UNION for the non-relational queries/tables

    No it shows a total of 161. But just a count without the table listing of names, email addresses, etc. which is what I want, all combined - just a total at the bottom. I think I'll just use the sum symbol on the ribbon/menu and then I get what I want (suitable for exporting to Excel with the...

    Need help with SQL in an Access query that has UNION for the non-relational queries/tables

    Yes, sorry, I didn't realize that I didn't reply. Would you believe it, but I had to change your Post #16 from a link to plain text, above in the question, because it thought my reply was spam and would not let me reply. I Posting just that code by itself only relates to the count, and so I...

    Need help with SQL in an Access query that has UNION for the non-relational queries/tables

    Thanks. I received an error message: Syntax error in FROM clause. I tried it with and without the "." at the end of From qryMembershipUnion and I received the same error message with or without the ending "." This is the complete code with your addition: SELECT...

    Need help with SQL in an Access query that has UNION for the non-relational queries/tables

    Hi, although counting on last name only works (not the code) in datasheet view when I click on the ribbon summation key (and correctly, in that at the bottom of the datasheet table, it shows total 170, I could not in the code select LastName and FirstName because not all records have a name in...

    Need help with SQL in an Access query that has UNION for the non-relational queries/tables

    Thanks, but no, it doesn't work. The datasheet view shows one column "LastNamesCount" with the number 1 in each row, and only 28 records (there should be 170)

    Need help with SQL in an Access query that has UNION for the non-relational queries/tables

    Thanks. It doesn't open, Access returns the following error message: The specified field 'MembershipID' could refer to more than one table listed in the FROM clause of your SQL statement. Incidentally, I don't the the max of membership year (the last membership year for which the member paid...

    Need help with SQL in an Access query that has UNION for the non-relational queries/tables

    Thanks. I copied the code that you supplied and ran a test but the result only had one column, labeled LastNameCount and just the number 1 in each row for 161 records. That for some reason is not the correct number because my original query has the correct 170 records. Also, my original union...

    Need help with SQL in an Access query that has UNION for the non-relational queries/tables

    I didn't write any of it - I merely did an SQL view and copied and pasted them here: For qryMembershipNotArchivedEmailMailingList it is: SELECT qryMembership.Title, qryMembership.LastName, qryMembership.FirstName, qryMembership.Email FROM qryMembership WHERE (((qryMembership.Email)<>"" And...

    Need help with SQL in an Access query that has UNION for the non-relational queries/tables

    It Thanks for your reply. I think so. It must be this one FROM qryMembershipNotArchivedEmailMailingList. I guess that it must be caused by the Union query itself because one query/table contains that field (NonMemberID) whereas the other table does not (and should not). So when I just click...

    Need help with SQL in an Access query that has UNION for the non-relational queries/tables

    Thanks, that worked with this code in a separate query: SELECT Count(LastName) AS LastNameCombined FROM qryEmailListNonArchivedMembersANDNonArchivedNonMemberPurchasers; Just as an aside, I originally just had Count but Access indicated I needed SELECT and then it worked and when I looked at...

    Need help with SQL in an Access query that has UNION for the non-relational queries/tables

    Please have patience with me. I not familiar with modern programming. I'm almost 81 years old and had two Fortran II classes at NYU in the mid 1960s. The most I do now are relatively simple batch files that I run from the command prompt on my desktop computer. I'm retired but am a membership VP...

    Help Needed to SetFocus on Unbound Text Box in Form Header Section

    Thanks. It works now, but I think that what I have is something like that, although I'm not sure if the header section is actually a subform, because there are only text boxes, options, labels, etc., but no actual linked table in that header section.

    Help Needed to SetFocus on Unbound Text Box in Form Header Section

    Thanks isladogs. Although I did get it to work wtih code based on prior discussion in this thread, I copied the sample datrabase to yet another copy of it so as to try your suggestion, if nothing else for future reference. When I deleted the code for the focus to be on txtFinder in the header...

    Help Needed to SetFocus on Unbound Text Box in Form Header Section

    Thanks June & Micron. June, What I had meant by "does not work" was that nothing happened, I played around with both of your suggestions and finally, with a little modification, I got it to work. This is where (Form/Open) and the coding used to make it work...

    Help Needed to SetFocus on Unbound Text Box in Form Header Section

    In the header section of a form is an unbound box to type in either LastName or FirstName, depending which field radio button was selected (I always have it set to LastName). I would like the cursor to be on this unbound box when the form is opened. Right now the cursor blinks on the first...

    search and listbox

    Not very knowledgeable, I generally use the wizards for forms and queries. However, as far as relationship to get a subform show, I think you need the relationship between two tables to have a common, non-duplicative, field. I use the Access generated Primary Key, AutoNumber (as the data type)...

    Hi Alvarogue: I'm not sure if the below is what you mean, but it all works fine now. Here is the revised form, with one button for Find Next rather than two buttons and here is the working, corrected code (given to me by a member of another database forum): This is the working code...
