2018-03-15 18:38:01 +0100 | marked best answer | BASE Query Criteria Problem I am having several problems with the migration of my Medical Access database to Base. I think I have migrated the 3 tables from Access to Base, but I am having a problem replicating my queries and reports. Parameter Query In Access, I created a query using the following criteria to pull data from the tables based on a user entered selection prompt. I am selecting on the ClaimNum data field. Like [Enter ClaimNum] & “*” When I run the Access query, a dialog box appears and I can enter the data. Examples, 1701, 1710A, or using wildcards, 17. The “17” entry will pull all of the records beginning with “17”. In Base, I have not been able to duplicate the wildcard functionality. The ClaimNum data field is VARCHAR length 100, and I also tried VARCHAR_IGNORECASE. In Base, I entered the following criteria in the ClaimNum data column. LIKE EnterClaimNum When I run the query, I get the parameter prompt “EnterClaimNum” and I can enter the selection data. However, this only works if I enter the complete data string. Examples, 1701, or 1710A. The wildcard entry return an empty query. I tried 17*, 17%, 17_, with and without enclosed “ “. I am using LibreOffice v5.4.5.1 and Java 1.8.0_151 on an XP operating system which I want to migrated to a newer system. The new system is a dual boot system. Linux Mint 17.2, LibreOffice v5.4.5.1 and Java 1.7.0_151 Win 7 Pro, LibreOffice v5.4.5.1 and Java 1.8.0_161 The problem occurs on the XP system and both new system configurations. Thank you in advance for your assistance. |
