Access uses December 30, as date 0. Dates outside the range April 18, and September 11, exceed the size of a Byte field. Dates outside the range April 13, and September 16, exceed the size of an Integer field.
To accommodate all possible dates, set the Field Size property of your Number field to Long Integer or greater. Values must not exceed or fall below the size limit set for the field. For example, you can convert a Currency field to an Integer field only when those values are greater than and do not exceed 32, The value -1 Yes converts to December 29, The value 0 No converts to midnight AM. If the original text contains a valid Web address, such as adatum.
Access tries to convert other values, meaning that you see underlined text, and the cursor changes when you point at the link, but the links don't work. Not allowed when a Number field is part of a relationship. If the original value is in the form of a valid Internet Protocol IP address four number triplets separated by a period: nnn.
Not allowed when the AutoNumber field is part of a relationship. The resulting links do not work. If you try to run an action query and it seems like nothing occurs, check the Access status bar for the following message:. By default, Access disables all action queries update, append, delete, or make table queries unless your database is in a trusted location or the database is signed and trusted.
If you have not taken either of these actions, you can still enable the query for the current database session by clicking Enable Content on the Message Bar.
An expression that determines the value to be inserted into a particular field in the updated records. An expression that determines which records will be updated. Only records that satisfy the expression are updated.
You can change several fields at the same time. The following example increases the Order Amount values by 10 percent and the Freight values by 3 percent for shippers in the United Kingdom:.

Privacy policy. Creates an update query that changes values in fields in a specified table based on specified criteria. Using an update query. Update data from one table to another. Stop Disabled Mode from blocking a query.
Like the Find and Replace dialog box, an update query lets you specify which value is being replaced, and what the new value is. Calculated fields The values in calculated fields do not permanently reside in tables.
They only exist in your computer's temporary memory after Access calculates them. Because calculated fields do not have a permanent storage location, you cannot update them. Fields from a totals query or a crosstab query The values in these types of query are calculated, and therefore cannot be updated by an update query. AutoNumber fields By design, the values in AutoNumber fields change only when you add a record to a table.
Fields in unique-values queries and unique-records queries The values in such queries are summarized. Some of the values represent a single record, and others represent more than one record. The update operation is not possible because it is not possible to determine what records were excluded as duplicates, and therefore not possible to update all the necessary records.
This restriction applies whether you use an update query or try to update data manually by entering values in a form or a datasheet. Fields in a union query You cannot update data from fields in a union query because each record that appears in two or more data sources only appears once in the union query result. Because some duplicate records are removed from the results, Access cannot update all the necessary records.
Fields that are primary keys In some cases, such as if the primary key field is used in a table relationship, you cannot update the field by using a query unless you first set the relationship to automatically cascade updates. Note: When you cascade updates, Access automatically updates foreign key values when you change a primary key value in a parent table. As a best practice when creating an update query, first create a select query that identifies the records that you want to update, and then convert that query to an update query that you can run to update the records.
Tip: Back up your database before you run an update query. You cannot undo the results of an update query, and making a backup helps make sure that you can reverse your changes if you change your mind.
Click the File Tab, and then click Save As. In the Save Backup As dialog box, specify a name and location for the backup copy, and then click Save. To revert to a backup, close and rename the original file so that the backup copy can use the name of the original version.
Assign the name of the original version to the backup copy, and then open the renamed backup copy in Access. Step 1: Create a select query to identify the records to update. Step 2: Update the records. On the Create tab, in the Queries group, click Query Design.
Select the table or tables that contain the records that you want to update, click Add , and then click Close. The table or tables appear as one or more windows in the query designer, and the windows list all the fields in each table. This figure shows the query designer with a typical table. Double-click the fields that you want to update in the table windows. The selected fields appear in the Field row in the query design grid. This figure shows the query design grid with all the fields added.
To limit the query results based on field values, in the query design grid, in the Criteria row, enter the criteria that you want to use to limit the results. The following table shows some example criteria and explains the effect that they have on the results of a query. Note: Many of the examples in this table use wildcard characters to make the query more flexible or powerful. If your database uses the ANSI wildcard characters, use single quotation marks ' instead of pound signs. Finds all records where the exact contents of the field are not exactly equal to "Germany.
Finds all records except those starting with T. Finds all records that do not end with t. In a text field, finds all records that start with the letters A through D. Finds all records that include the letter sequence "ar".
