    Update a parameter query?

    Do you want to view the results of the parameter query before deciding whether to update the recordset, or do you want to automatically run the update? If you want to automatically run the update, you can specify criteria to select the records to update just as you specify records to display...

    Multiple criteria in queries

    I need to calculate counts for different variables from the same table, each with different criteria, and I'm wondering if this can be done in 1 query or if I need separate queries for each.

    access tables, modify, then re-upload data

    query yeilding no records

    query yeilding no records

    Sorry, I think I mistakenly described the structure of a different query. Actually, all of the information I need is in one main table. Each record contains all of the information for one person. There are separate fields to record the date completed and status of each interview (e.g., int1date...

    query yeilding no records

    Hi, I'm new to the bb and I really hope someone can help me. My problem is similar to paulmconnel's posting from yesterday, but I don't know SQL so the responses didn't help me. I have multiple queries set up, each to pull information out of a different table (the total number of interviews...
