Help with a partial match query
I asked this question here many, many years ago and have since forgotten the answer. I have a table with address data in it, spread over several fields. One of the fields is called "Zip" and is a text field of 5 characters in length. I am trying to write a query that will prompt the user to enter the first FOUR digits of the zip code and have it return all matches for those four characters. For example, 1234 would return 12345, 12346, and 12347 and so on. My recollection is that the query was something like: SELECT * FROM addresses WHERE Zip LIKE "[Enter first four digits]%" but that does not seem to work in Access 2007. I am probably misremembering. Does anyone know the proper query syntax? Thank you for your help. -- If you try, you can envision peas on earth.

whoops! Gina seems to have uncharacteristically gotten carried away with the
quotes.
LIKE [Enter first four digits] & "*"
You might need to replace the * with a % if you have set up your database to
use ANSII-compliant SQL.

SELECT help with sum based on prior rows value
This is recording when a person gets on and off the bus. I am trying to sum the stops below such that the total miles is based on an accumulated average. So for the set below, myid of 676850 would be 12.5 - 10 miles alone before picking up 677395 plus 5 / 2 (because 677395 got on at odometer 10) until 676850 got off at odometer 15. Then 677395 has 7.5 miles. 5 with 676850 and 5 alone (676850 was dropped of at odometer 15). This is a simple scenario. Any number of people could get on and off the bus between the pick up and drop off of any one person. WITH tripstops(myid, ...
Query on CRM-Exchange Email Router installation
hi folks, Reference chapter 5 of the Implementation Guide, the main CRM components must be located in the same Active Directory Domain. Have anyone tried installing the Router on an Exchange Server on a different domain from CRM Server? Can it be done? Does it work? heh. I'm familiar with the usual warning from Microsoft.

How do i show the date a report or query was last run?
I am using Access 2007. I have several reports and queries which are run on a fairly regular basis. What I would like to be able to do is show the date the report was last run. Is there any way I can show this on a form which would show the name of the report or query and the date it was last run. Thank you for any help you can give me. Sean Bishop The easiest way I know is to have whatever triggers your report to also append a record to a table and to use DLokup on form to display Max dated record. -- Build a little, test a little.

Excel
Have typed a paragraph into a cell and no matter what size I set the row to allow the text to wrap (it's set to wrap), I get a row of ####. You probably have the formatting set to "Text". Try setting it to "General". You still might not be able to see all your text, because Excel limits the number of characters it will display in a cell. However, when you click on the cell, you'll see it in the formula entry area. "Format/Cells.../Number" set to "General" HTH, Eric "Cheryl" wrote: > Have typed a paragr...

Please help a neophyte w/ connecting Outlook
I recently received a Dell Inspiron 5100 laptop. Since I only have a dial-up connection and I want to use this in a room where there is no telephone jack, I needed a long phone cord to connect the laptop to the phone jack. I attached the 50' cord to the laptop last week and all went fine connecting to the Internet. However, I cannot seem to make the connection again. I enter the password and it dials (pulse!), and the box says "connected to remote computer", then "verifying name and password", then finally "unable to establish a connection". I th...
