The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Crosstab query not producing expected results

Asked by ohgee in Microsoft Access Database, SQL Query Syntax

Tags: Microsoft, Access, 2003

Hi

I have created a unnion query that joins 4 tables. The output of this query is three fields, ie id, low and high. The low and high fields can have the following values, 1 or 0

I then joined this union query to a select query, adding a few more fields.  The ouput of this new select query looks correct. for example (not all fields shown)

id 1418 has 0 in low and 1 in high
id 1435 has 0 in low and 1 in high
id 1435 has 1 in low and 0 in high

So, id 1435 has two records. This is correct; the number one represents both high and low in the union query, and the number 0 represents any value other than one. Here is the union query, to explain.

Select AuditID, iif(RxAuditID= 2,1,0) as Low ,   iif(RxAuditID= 3,1,0) as High from Requirements

UNION ALL

Select AuditID, iif(DecisionAuditID= 2,1,0) as Low ,   iif(DecisionAuditID= 7,1,0) as High from Decision

UNION ALL

Select AuditID, iif(CommunicationAuditID= 2,1,0) as Low ,   iif(CommunicationAuditID= 3,1,0) as High from Communications

UNION ALL

Select AuditID, iif(OtherAuditID= 2,1,0) as Low ,   iif(OtherAuditID= 3,1,0) as High from Other;


What I am trying to do is count the number of 1's that are recorded against each id. So in the above example id 1435 has two 1's (one in the low field and one in the high field) and I am struggling to produce a crosstab query that will return a count of two for id 1435.

The crosstab query that produces the incorrect result is

PARAMETERS [Forms]![NullsTestReports]![AuditNumber] Short;
TRANSFORM Count(QryMoreThanOneScoredFinding_Select.High) AS CountOfhigh
SELECT QryMoreThanOneScoredFinding_Select.AuditNumber, QryMoreThanOneScoredFinding_Select.AuditID, QryMoreThanOneScoredFinding_Select.PolicyNumber, QryMoreThanOneScoredFinding_Select.LastName, QryMoreThanOneScoredFinding_Select.FirstNames, Count(QryMoreThanOneScoredFinding_Select.High) AS Total
FROM QryMoreThanOneScoredFinding_Select
GROUP BY QryMoreThanOneScoredFinding_Select.AuditNumber, QryMoreThanOneScoredFinding_Select.AuditID, QryMoreThanOneScoredFinding_Select.PolicyNumber, QryMoreThanOneScoredFinding_Select.LastName, QryMoreThanOneScoredFinding_Select.FirstNames
PIVOT QryMoreThanOneScoredFinding_Select.Low;

Please also see the gif that shows the output of the select and crosstab query

Thank you.
