Here's the situation:
I'm trying to use an update query to copy data from one row to another.
Here is the situation:
I have 5 companies that are linked to each other. I need to show all 5
companies on a form. 3 of the companies have common employees. I have a
table that looks like this:
Row ID Company Common Company Common EEs (checkboxes)
1 A B
2 A C
3 A D
4 A E
5 B A
6 B C
7 B D
8 B E
9 C A
10 C B
11 C D
12 C E
13 D A
14 D B
15 D C
16 D E
and so on.
If I were to look at Company A in a form, in the form header I have:
Company A
In the detail section (as a continuous form) I show it's linked companies:
Company B
Company C
Company D
Company E
With a checkbox next to each name in the detail section.
In this scenario, company B and D have common employees with company A. So,
when you check the box next to B, I have a query that will check the row
with Company A and Company B (row 1) and the row with Company B and Company
A (row 5). The same with Company A and Company D. When you check the box
next to Company D, the update query with update row 3 (A and D) and row 13
(D and A).
So, now company A and company B have the same info. Company A and company D
have the same info. BUT, company B and company D (rows 7 and 14) also need
to be checked and this isn't happening. How do I update those rows??
Thanks in advance,

Laura, this sounds like a maintenance nightmare!
You need Access to calculate this for you at runtime, and you could achieve
that if you had these 3 tables:
Company table:
CompanyID primary key
Employee table:
EmployeeID primary key
CompanyEmployee table:
CompanyID foreign key to Company.Company ID
EmployeeID foreign key to Employee.Employ eeID
Now create two queries:
1. Create a query into the CompanyEmployee table.
Drag a 2nd copy of the CompanyEmployee table into the grid.
Access will alias it as CompanyEmployee _1.
2. In the upper pane, create a join between CompanyEmployee .EmployeeID and
CompanyEmployee _1.EmployeeID. If you see a join between
CompanyEmployee .CompanyID and CompanyEmployee _1.CompanyID, delete that line.
3. Drag CompanyEmployee .CompanyID into the query grid.
Type this into the Field row:
CommonCompanyID :[CompanyEmployee _1].[CompanyID]
In the Criteria row under this field, enter:
<> CompanyEmployee .CompanyID.
4. Save the query with the name qryEmployeeBoth . Close.
This query shows each matching company that has shared employees, and lists
who they are.
1. Create a new query into the Company table and also the query you just
saved. If you don't see a line joining Company.Company ID to qryEmployeeID,
then drag the one field onto the other. Double-click the join line. Access
pops up a dialog offereing 3 choices. Choose the one that says:
All records from Company, and any matches from ...
2. Depress the Totals button on the toobar.
Access adds a Total row to the grid.
3. Drag Company.Company ID and qryEmployeeBoth .CommonCompanyI D into the grid.
Accept Group By under these fields.
4. Drag qryEmployeeBoth .EmployeeID into the grid. In the Total row, choose
Count.
This query lists every company matched against any other companies that have
shared employees, and the number of shared employees.
This willbe the SQL for the 2 queries:
SELECT CompanyEmployee .CompanyID, CompanyEmployee .EmployeeID,
CompanyEmployee _1.CompanyID AS CommonCompanyID
FROM CompanyEmployee INNER JOIN CompanyEmployee AS
CompanyEmployee _1 ON CompanyEmployee .EmployeeID =
CompanyEmployee _1.EmployeeID
WHERE CompanyEmployee _1.CompanyID <> [CompanyEmployee].[CompanyID];
SELECT Company.Company ID, qryEmployeeBoth .CommonCompanyI D,
Count(qryEmploy eeBoth.Employee ID) AS CountOfEmployee ID
FROM Company LEFT JOIN qryEmployeeBoth
ON Company.Company ID = qryEmployeeBoth .CompanyID
GROUP BY Company.Company ID, qryEmployeeBoth .CommonCompanyI D;

There isn't a need for an employees table. I just need to know if common
employees may exist between the two companies. I don't need a list of them.
Here is the actual update query that occurs when the check box is checked:
UPDATE tblCombinedPlan s SET tblCombinedPlan s.CommonEEs =
[Forms]![frmgroups].[Subform BasicCase].[Form].[AddlPlans
Subform].[Form].[CommonEEs], tblCombinedPlan s.Census =
[Forms]![frmgroups].[Subform BasicCase].[Form].[AddlPlans
Subform].[Form].[Census]
WHERE (((tblCombinedP lans.GA_Number) =[Forms]![frmgroups].[Subform
BasicCase].[Form].[AddlPlans Subform].[Form].[C_GA_Number]) AND
((tblCombinedPl ans.PlanNum)=[Forms]![frmgroups].[Subform
BasicCase].[Form].[AddlPlans Subform].[Form].[C_PlanNum]) AND
((tblCombinedPl ans.PYE)=[Forms]![frmgroups].[Subform
BasicCase].[Form].[AddlPlans Subform].[Form].[C_PYE]) AND
((tblCombinedPl ans.C_GA_Number )=[forms]![frmGroups]![GA_Number]) AND
((tblCombinedPl ans.C_PlanNum)=[forms]![frmGroups]![PlanNum]) AND
((tblCombinedPl ans.C_PYE)=[forms]![frmGroups]![PYE]));
The fields on the table are:
These three denote the company
GA_Number
PlanNum
PYE
These three denote the linked or 'common' company.
C_GA_Number
C_PlanNum
C_PYE
These are the two checkboxes.
CommonEEs
Census
As you can see from the query above, I made GA_Number = C_GA_Number, etc.
This allowed me to reverse the values.
I was thinking that maybe I should use vb. The table is relatively static
except for the 2 checkboxes. I haven't worked it out completely yet, but I
think I could store the 6 values of a record, then reverse them, and create
a dynamic update query.
Do you think that would work?
Thanks,
Laura
P.S. I love, love, love your website. I found it more than 6 years ago when
I was forced to teach myself Access and couldn't get my mind around how to
do a dynamic dlookup. You are wonderful at explaining things. Thank ypu so

Laura, what bothers me is the non-normalized data structure, where you have
one record dependent on another. That *is* the problem that you are trying
to solve by forcing the update of the other record when one changes. To me,
that approach would be unacceptable, e.g. if the write fails for some reason
(e.g. another user is editing that record), your database gradually becomes
more and more wrong over time.
Some kind of junction table(s) between 2 instances of the company table
seems to be a more reliable approach.
Thanks for the comments re the website. Like many of the regular
contributors here, I enjoy empowering people to achieve things for
themselves.

Ok, I got some good advise. I re-wrote the program and now I'm down to only
1 error. Below is my code and my error. Any ideas what it is?
#include <iostream>
using std::cout;
using std::cin;
using std::endl;
// Function main begins program execution

I have a pre-printed form that I've basically duplicated in Access 2000 with
the form wizards. It uses a main form for the basic info on a client, then
a subform for the transaction lines. I've tweaked it "just a bit" with code
for defaults and stuff, but otherwise, it's pretty much the way the wizards
created it (both main form and sub-form).
However, I need to either limit the number of transactions my user can
input, or limit the...

This is a variation on the last 2 unresolved questions I've posted. Having
removed the "required" attribute from a field that was causing trouble, I'm
finding that my dataAdapter update gets values into some fields, but not
others.
Inspecting the single row in my dataset, I see the correct values, but they
don't arrive at the table. Other columns, however, do. This is extremely
frustrating.
I considered the possibility that...

HELP!
Hi Folks,
I'm having trouble referencing these public variables, and I'm not sure
why. I use the code below to set open a connection to a database. The
variables are public variables and I hadn't had any problems previously, but
I seem to be having trouble now. I could have modified it between the time
it last worked and now (while I was cleaning up some of the code) but I
don't recall touching anything.

Hi,
I've used information on these newsgroups to build many pages. So I thought that now that I have my script working (something that I've been working on for about a week), I should post it so that it may help others.
If posting this script is against the rules in this group then please accept my appologies.
I developped this script so that I can add and remove rows in a table in which I have various input fields and I would use the...

Second, I spent an hour searching through articles and posts to make sure the information I am seeking is not already posted on the site.
I am beating my head against the wall trying to figure out something that seems like it should be very simple. The trouble is I do not fully...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp
Here is the code in...

Overview:
Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Hello
I'm a network technician in training and I need your help.
I am currently learning how to create and manage the different types of VPNs and I have a question about LAN-to-LAN VPNs.
The last exercise I practiced was to create a LAN-to-LAN VPN between two Pfsense firewalls, by using IPSEC protocols.
I succeeded, with both firewalls in the same network. But I'm wondering if it's possible to do the same thing, with 2 Pfsense firewalls...
