    open a report based on a combo box

    But the data is used different ways in the 3 different tables. KPI Rating Criteria table has the criteria code and their descriptions. (this is the table where I ideally should have an autonumber field so each criteria code has a number associated with it. That way, in other tables, I would...

    open a report based on a combo box

    compare data in a table and look for changes

    I'm using Access 2003. Can I compare data in a table and look for changes depending on the date? The primary key in my table is a combination of ProjectID and AsOfDate. My AsOfDate is always the last day of the month (ex: 1/31/08, 2/28/08, 3/31/08, etc) Ex: my table looks like: ProjectID...

    Global 'search and replace' function in Access?

    I just opened my table in Design view and changed the field name. Then, I went into one of the queries and, to my surprise, the IIF statement updated automatically with the new name! I didn't know Access did that! Access 97 didn't do it. So I don't need any global search and replace afterall...

    I am using Access 2003. Is there a global 'search and replace' function in Access? I inherited a database with descriptive field names. If I change the field name in my table, is there a function that will search all the IIF statements in all my queries to change the name there...

    IN with LIKE

    I have lots of IIF queries that use IN and they work fine. I know I can do: iif([Lifecycle] in ("MS1-BeginPhase", "MS2-DesignPhase") I was trying to use LIKE with IN to simplify. I was trying to make this work somehow: iif([Lifecycle] in (like "MS1*", like "MS2*")

    IN with LIKE

    Thanks to everyone who wrote. ajetrumpet: I'm not sure how I was vague. I wrote exactly the IIF statement I was looking for. Crey23: Your way doesn't work. You can't do: Iif([Lifecycle] like "MS1*" OR like "MS2*", ....). I would have to write: Iif([Lifecycle] like "MS1*" OR [Lifecycle] like...

    how to run queries

    I was trying to show that all my queries started the same, with the words 'AppendCritiera' and then a changing value. I guess my main question is, does Access assign a 'behind the scenes' name to each query depending on its position in the query window? So would Access assign the first query...
