SQL SYNTAX ERROR ON JOIN OPERATION

[Guest]

can anyone see what i am not see...the sql bellow give me a syntax error on
join operation, but i dont see where. is it because there are too many joins?

SELECT MSM.ModelNumber, MSM.Desc1, MSM.Desc2, Spring.Spring, Label.Label,
Size.Size, Needle.Needle, Pattern.Pattern, Config.Config, Border.Border,
MSM.Produce, Concatenate("SELECT Qfill FROM qrQfills WHERE ModelNumber = """
& [MSM].[ModelNumber] & """") AS Qfill, Concatenate("SELECT Bfill FROM
qrBfill WHERE ModelNumber = """ & [MSM].[ModelNumber] & """") AS Bfill,
Concatenate("SELECT UphFill FROM qrUphfills WHERE ModelNumber = """ &
[MSM].[ModelNumber] & """") AS Uphfill, Concatenate("SELECT PtFill FROM
qrPtfills WHERE ModelNumber =""" & [MSM].[ModelNumber] & """") AS Ptfill,
FoamCore.FoamCore, FoamEnc.FoamEnc
FROM [Size] INNER JOIN (Pattern INNER JOIN (Needle INNER JOIN (Label INNER
JOIN (Config INNER JOIN (Border INNER JOIN (FoamCore INNER JOIN(FoamEnc INNER
JOIN(Spring INNER JOIN MSM ON Spring.SpringID = MSM.SpringID) ON
Border.BorderID = MSM.BorderID) ON Config.ConfigID = MSM.ConfigID) ON
Label.LabelID = MSM.LabelID) ON Needle.NeedleID = MSM.NeedleID) ON
Pattern.PatternID = MSM.PatternID) ON Size.SizeID = MSM.SizeID)ON
FoamCore.FoamCoreID = FoamCoreID)ON FoamEnc.FoamEncID = MSM.FoamEncID;

When I break down your query I note that you are missing spaces in
several places in the FROM clause. Usually right before a parentheses.

.... INNER JOIN(FoamEnc ...
....INNER JOIN(Spring ...

Missing MSM as table name in the following
....ON FoamCore.FoamCoreID = FoamCoreID...
Also, your JOINs should parallel your ON clauses

So you should end up with something like the following if I got all my
parens matched up correctly.


SELECT ...

FROM [Size]
INNER JOIN (Pattern
INNER JOIN (Needle
INNER JOIN (Label
INNER JOIN (Config
INNER JOIN (Border
INNER JOIN (FoamCore
INNER JOIN (FoamEnc
INNER JOIN (Spring
INNER JOIN MSM

ON Spring.SpringID = MSM.SpringID)
ON FoamEnc.FoamEncID = MSM.FoamEncID)
ON FoamCore.FoamCoreID = MSM.FoamCoreID)
ON Border.BorderID = MSM.BorderID)
ON Config.ConfigID = MSM.ConfigID)
ON Label.LabelID = MSM.LabelID)
ON Needle.NeedleID = MSM.NeedleID)
ON Pattern.PatternID = MSM.PatternID)
ON Size.SizeID = MSM.SizeID

Hey John,

this is what i got now and i still have the same errors.....it seems to work
on a query now, but when i get to create a report, it still doesnt accept
those new fields, foamCore, foamenc, boxtype, and boxprofile. somehow, it's
not displaying it.


SELECT LinkedSalesOrder.OrderNo, LinkedSalesOrder.ID,
LinkedSalesOrder.RequiredDate, LinkedSalesOrder.ID_1,
LinkedSalesOrder.Description, LinkedSalesOrder.Comment1,
LinkedSalesOrder.OrderQty, MSM.Produce, qrMSM.Bfill, qrMSM.Qfill,
qrMSM.Uphfill, qrMSM.Ptfill, LinkedSalesOrder.Comment2, MSM.SpringID,
MSM.LabelID, MSM.SizeID, MSM.NeedleID, MSM.PatternID, MSM.ConfigID,
MSM.BorderID, MSM.FoamCoreID, MSM.FoamEncID
FROM qrMSM INNER JOIN (LinkedSalesOrder INNER JOIN MSM ON
LinkedSalesOrder.ID_1 = MSM.ModelNumber) ON qrMSM.ModelNumber =
LinkedSalesOrder.ID_1
WHERE (((MSM.BoxChecked)=No))
WITH OWNERACCESS OPTION;

I don't see the fields in the Select clause of the query. You need to
have them there if you are going to use them in the report.

Hey John,
thanks for the help, it worked. i was wondering if you have an answer for
me for the following question. i am new in access development and i am trying
to create a query that uses the function count to count the amount of items
for a vendor, i am trying to create a Purchase Order per vendor. now, i have
a vendor table, a spring table, a foam table and so on and a production query
that you helped me with. i like to create query that shows, spring, foam, and
other items per vendor. i created a query for each item and thier vendor, but
when i try to create just one for vendor and all items, i get stuck and get
bad results. it's there a directory where i could learn about that or can you
help? thanks again.
