Concatenation for JulieD or any other Guru

[Guest]

I found some direction in an older thread from JulieD to Dave about
concatenating. I've tried to apply it to my report but have been unsuccesful.
Here's JulieD's post followed by my challenge:

Hi Dave

you're definitely on the right track ... i find it always easier to base a
report on a query and do the concatenation there .. to concatenate in
a query you go to a blank column, type a name for the new field in, followed
by a colon and a space and then the fields e.g
fullname: FName & " " & SName

in a report, you need to do this in the control source of an unbound text
box
=FName & " " & SName

Hope this helps
Cheers
JulieD

What I'm doing is concatenating txtCodeID and CorrugatedStyles. The query I
made works fine but my unbound text box in my report isn't:
=[txtCodeID] & " " & [CorrugatedStyles]

When I leave design mode the "Enter parameter" dialogue boxes appear for
txtCodeID and CorrugatedStyles.

What am I doing wrong?

 

[Allen Browne]

As JulieD said, you will find it easier to create the calculated field in
the query.

Type this into a fresh column in the Field row in query design:
CodeCorrStyle: Trim([txtCodeID] & " " & [CorrugatedStyles])
Check that it works correctly in the query.
Then in your report, set these properties for your text box:
Name CodeCorrStyle
Control Source CodeCorrStyle


If you want to do it in the report instead:
1. Make sure that you have text boxes for txtCodeID and for CorrugatedStyles
on the report. (You can set their Visible property to No.

2. Check the Name of the text box that contains the concatenation. It must
not be the same as the name of any field in the report's RecordSource. For
example, it cannot be named txtCodeID.

Thanks for the fast response, Allen!

I did everything and again, the query works fine. However, I still get the
"Enter parameter" dialogues.

[Allen Browne]

Open the report in design view, and open the Field List (View menu).
Do txtCodeID and CorrugatedStyles appear in the Field List?
Exactly like that? No spaces?
Have you created text boxes for them?
Do the text boxes have the same name, or are they called something like
Text63?

John, I'm not sure what else to suggest. Unless it's a spelling error...

Perhaps you could create another report, with just those 3 field. If that
works, then add the other fields, as well. Once you have it working, delete
the broken one and save this one in its place.

Thanks, Allen.

Maybe here's the problem: the unbound text box in the report needs to
display a record from tblPKCGPhysicalAttributes.Style.

This field is a combo box and queries
tblPKCGStyles.txtCodeID.CorrugatedStyle. It's Bound Column is 1 and so it
saves the value in txtCodeID. For example, record 205050 has 0201 saved as
it's style.

My report needs to display the 0201 value and it's Corrugated Style. In this
case, it would be 0201 RSC - Regular Slotted Container.

Does this help? Am I way off track?

If not, add it so you can get the Style field into your report.

You don't want a combo on your report. It's not easy to drop them down in a
report, on screen, or on paper.

Yes - tblPKCGPhysicalAttributes is in the query. I'm getting the impression
that I can't do what I'd like which is to get the Style field in the report
to concatenate and display both txtCodeID and CorrugatedStyle. In the current
design it only displays txtCodeID.

John, if the Style field is in the report's query, and it shows in the
FieldList for the report, I don't understand why you cannot drag it from
there onto the report, and concatenate it into another calculated control.

[Guest]

Yikes - my brain is toast. I originally built the report with the wizard and
all is well except that I can't understand why I can't concatenate it, either!

You say into "another" field. I'm new to concatenating and I don't follow.
You mean create another text box next to Style and have it concatenate...?

I'm not able to picture this.

 

[Allen Browne]

I'll let you take it from there, John.

I really don't understand but thanks, anyway!
