I posted this in the small questions thread a while back, but perhaps its too large of a question for that. So, essentially what I want to do export the MDB file, open it in access then show ONLY MY WORKERS STATS and export that to excel (if I can). I have two monitors, I think it would be nice to have all of my workers all on one screen so I can quickly see their stats as I make my cards up. Has anyone found a way to do this?

 

 

Thank you.

I've used a free MDB viewer to look at the file and it allowed me to filter. But I don't have anything that can export to Excel, much as I'd love it.

I have Access (I'm actually a certified Microsoft Office Specialist in Access) lol. Thats not the problem. I just cannot figure out how to get only MY ROSTER to display -_-. I guess that is the question lol.

You tell it what columns to show and how to sort and filter them.</p>

<p>Shamelessly quoting myself from another thread, but you mean something like this...?</p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-username="TheFlamingred" data-cite="TheFlamingred" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="41471" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><span>http://i66.tinypic.com/2ltre4l.jpg</span><p> </p><p> Well, in Excel, Data you can import a table from a database. I find Workers and Contracts enough for all the data I want. </p><p> </p><p> All you have to do is find your FedID by manually looking though the table for your user character. </p><p> </p><p> From there, create some code to search all the contracts that are linked to your FedID, and then bring all those rows into a table, and link those with all the rows which have the corresponding WorkerID.</p><p> </p><p> Then adjust the outcome to remove errors, etc and you're left with whats in the above pic.</p><p> </p><p> It's an hour or two of coding but I only have to do it once. (there is sometimes a small copy error in one of my code sections. I dont know why but sometimes on refresh of data - it mis-copies it. However, grabbing the above row in the right place and copying it down corrects it). The only downside is it gives you actual data, not scouting level data - if you like to have that bit of mystery. I also have some of my own formulas for some comparative numbers. </p><p> </p><p> I say it takes an hour or two, I spent about 20 hours doing the same for TEW13, as I had to use the main database save file and collect about 5 different tables to collate, instead of two, so I was well versed in this when TEW16 had Database exports.</p><p> </p><p> If you want me to upload the excel file and a tutorial on how to use it, I can but you'll probably have to wait till Monday as I work all weekend.</p></div></blockquote>

<p>Just run a SQL Query like this in Access, either one will do: </p><p> </p><p>

SELECT Workers.* FROM Workers, Contracts WHERE Workers.UID=Contracts.WorkerUID AND Contracts.CompanyName ="WWF";</p><p> </p><p>

OR </p><p> </p><p>

SELECT * FROM Workers LEFT JOIN Contracts ON Workers.UID=Contracts.WorkerUID WHERE Contracts.CompanyName ="WWF";</p><p> </p><p>

This will return the Workers Table filtered by the Workers who work for WWF, in this case. In your case, just replace WWF with the initials for your promotion as it appears in game.</p><p> </p><p>

You can then just copy this table over to Excel.</p><p> </p><p>

This takes about 2 minutes, obviously code formatting in Excel or something even more advanced can take a lot longer depending on what data you're trying to pull and what it is you're trying to do.</p>

<p>Yeah you don't need to do it that way, it can be done a lot more efficiently <img alt=":D" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p>

Learning SQL (there are a lot of different types so your syntax and what you can do may vary, AccessSQL is the language for TEW) and using this for TEW can be pretty rewarding for data mining and having stuff for your own game to help with planning. </p><p> </p><p>

The thing with Ifs, are that it can get very complex and time consuming to set up and process. Remember that with Ifs it will always test the condition you are asking for, until it reaches the desired result. So I can only imagine how painful that might have been to do (doing IFs in Excel I really hate thanks to the single line textbox).</p>

Finally I found a way to combine TEW with learning for my exams in Operations Research. Thanks <img alt=":D" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />
