Hey
I have a form where in different fields along the same record i need to add the numbers up
http://img77.imageshack.us/img77/8530/problemuc6.png
That's an example of what i mean as you can see in my baddly mspainted bottom i have got a little box that shows 56 for the hours worked
Is there anyway to do something like this in access
thanks in advance
I have a table with a bunch of values for time spent on a variety of projects. Each persons time on a project is entered using a form. What I'd like is to then be able to add some of these times to get a total department time and a total project time in the table to help with our project costs estimating. Anyone have any ideas as there doesn't seem to be an easy way in the table itself to merely add columns. Thanks in Advance.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have two combos with a cost price in Column(2) where the underlying table has a field called fldCost (Number, Single, Auto). After selecting from both combos, cboF1 has 3.11 in column2 and cboF2 has 10 in column2. (eg: £3.11 and £10.00). I'm trying to add the value from both combos in an unbound text box on the form set to Fixed, 2 decimals with the ControlSource =Nz([cboF1.Column(2)])+Nz([cboF2.Column(2)]).
The result I'm getting is 3.1110 and not 13.11 as it should be.
I've tried setting everything to currency but it makes no difference. I've tried individual unbound boxes to get one result at a time then another to add them but that gives the same result.
I work for a non profit agency, and we offer a Representative Payee service (paying bills for those who can't handle their own money). I've created a database that keeps track of everyone's finances, and gives us all the reports we need. The only thing I have not been able to do is to actually print the checks.
I have a report that pulls up the data (in check format ... including making $1.00 say one dollar and 00/100). But I'm stuck trying to give the checks a check number. I can't figure out how to pick a number to start with, and then add numbers sequentially.
Hello
I 've created a report that uses a query to show some specific records of a table. I'd like to use a text box that has a nuber for each filtered record shown.For example:
Number Name Surname Age
1 Jim Powell 27
2 John Doe 30
etc
Thank in advance
Hello all,
I have a table, with a whole series of reference numbers in, which I have moved over from an old database, and am trying to integrate the data into my new database.
The numbers, in order to work with my new db need to be 6 characters long (as they are looked up in a sql-stored table that another application uses), otherwise it won't match up the clients to the reference numbers properly.
Anyway, some of these numbers are 6 digits anyway, such as 123456, but some are just 6543....I need 6543 to be changed to 006543, thereby creating a 6 digit number.
This, I am sure, is pretty simple, and only needs to be done the once - but I can't think of a way of doing it!
Any help much appreciated!
I have a database where on the form we are just put in total deductions. We want to make sure that the total deductions is correct so while we are entering this number we want to do an excel thing by hitting = 1 + 1. Anytime we do that we are getting an error message. I really didn't want to have to set up a table to store these different amounts because we really only need the total. Is there a way to do that? I changed the format from currency to general but I'm still getting the error.

I'm working on a pretty serious report (at least for me)...I have 3 sub-reports inside, and the point of this is to use VBA and loop through several conditions (in the underlying queries), and print out in a batch for the user. When I add a page number footer it adds about 3 seconds to the processing time for a 14 page report. That doesn't sound like a whole lot, but when I loop through and process this 12 times, that's a lot of added time for the user...(the last thing I want to hear is it's slow!)
So, would it be faster if I set the page numbers in VBA? What event would I use? On Load?!? Also, how would I find the page number variables in VBA?
I have an excel spreadsheet linked to a table n Access. I have phone numbers that I would like to transfer. I set a format in Excel that made it automatically change to the (###) ###-####, but when I look on the table in Access it shows up ###-#######.
View 2 Replies View RelatedBasically what I have is a database for tracking/logging parcels that arrive to the office. I want to be able to generate a reference number based on the date of arrival: i.e. the reference number should be ddmmyy### where ### is a sequential number. I know that I could just use the primary key's autonumber, for the sequential number but if I do this then the sequence will not restart at 1 on each date and because we receive a lot of parcels the reference number will grow to be too big to print out on the collection slips in just a few months.
two tables (one with the date and staff on duty that day and the other with the parcel's info') with a one to many relationship
I also have a query (Named: FullLog) that picks up the following data from the tables:
Name - Description - Size - TrackingInfo' - Staff - DateReceived - Count
The field named Count is a DCount function that I used to find out the number of times each date is repeated. This is the Expression that I used:
Count: DCount("*","FullLog","DateReceived = " & [DateReceived]) [Note that DateReceived is first converted into a string using CStr()]
This is as far as I have been able to get, I have been looking for weeks for a solution to this problem but I have yet to find one. I don't even know if the DCount function is the correct way of doing it, I did read somewhere that this produces a very slow query.
Effectively what I want to be able to get is something of that resembles the following
DateReceived - ReferenceNo
051013 051013001
051013 051013002
051013 051013003

I have this UDF in my excel template that changes a set of numbers in to letters corresponding a code.
For example the code is "EUCHARISTO" it would simply mean
E=1, U=2, C=3, H=4, A=5, R=6, I=7, S=8, T=9, O=0 and by default the tenths position (".0")=X the hundredths position (.0"0") = Y and If a number repeats it becomes G.
Examples
12.50 = EUAY
123.00 = EUCXY
12.25 = EUGA
99.00 = TGXY
99.50 = TGAY
999.00 = TGTXY
999.99= TGTGT
Here's the UDF:
Code:
Function LetterCode(ByVal Numbers As String, Letters As String) As String
Dim X As Long
Numbers = Format(Numbers, "0.00") * 100
Letters = UCase(Right(Letters, 1) & Left(Letters, Len(Letters) - 1))
If Numbers Like "*0" Then Mid(Numbers, Len(Numbers)) = "Y"
[Code] ...
Also, where best to put this code, In a query or in a module.
I know you can't store text in a numeric field but I always thought you could store numbers in a text field - provided you didn't need to do any calculations on them. My problem is as follows:
I receive an Excel 2003 spreadsheet once a month, which I save to a specific filename/location overwriting the previous file. My Access 2003 database uses this as a linked table and (among other things) runs an append query to add the new data onto an existing table.
We have now added a new column called Reference in the spreadsheet. Often, this will be empty, but it could contain numbers or text. This is the first month I have received it and most entries are blank (including the first row) but further down there are some numeric values.
So I added a new Reference field to my main table and set it to text. Then I amended the append query to include the new field. But when I run it I get the error "Numeric field overflow". If I take that column back out of the query, it runs fine, so that's definitely the offending data. And when I open the linked table in Excel and scroll down to where I should see the reference numbers, I see #Num! So it looks to me like it doesn't recognise numbers as text.
Things I've already tried
In Excel, I formatted all the Reference cells as text.
That didn't work, so next I added a dummy record at the top of the Excel file (just under the headings), with zeroes in the numeric columns and 'X's in the text columns including Reference.
But that doesn't work either. Given the above circumstances, what's the best way to proceed with this?
Hello first of all I have learned a lot from this forum so thanks you all who post questions & solutions. Ok I have a table which I use to query info and export to excel. My question is there a way to add sum totals to a few of the columns once it is in excel. I was thinking it would be easier to do a sum statement then just add it as the bottom row while it was exporting. Or would it be easier to do it once it is in excel. Here is my code:

DoCmd.OutputTo acQuery, "qrysalesdata", "MicrosoftExcel(*.xls)", "QUERY RESULTS.xls", True, ""

Sorry for adding the whole thing but I'm not sure it should be done after "Query Results.xls" is written or during the select statement.
Thanks in advance for your help.

I have 250 separate worksheets with a lot of data to put into Access. Problem is the data is 120,000 rows in each worksheet and a lot of duplicate date eg..DATE, NAME, TIME,are some of the column headings and there are multiple rows with same DATE or NAME. That is just how I received the data. I would like to transfer all records into Access as quickly and efficiently as possible.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am exporting data from the database to an excel sheet. Then I want to apply conditional formatting to the data so values between a certain range should be a certain colour.
But nothing happens when applying the conditional format, or when just trying to fill a cell in excel. Only when repeatedly clicking fill cell in excel does the colour change. Also all the cells are in the number format.
Ive been converting .xls files to Access database files. I would like to use ACCESS to develop the Reports but the client wants the Reports to look like those in EXCEL..eg. where you have lines between rows and columns. If I could give my Access Reports the same look and feel, I could wean these guys off of Excel and into the wonderful world of relational models.
Does anyone have sqlcode or tricks I might use to create the Excel 'look alike' report in Access?
thks in advance...and I will sum.

I searched the archive and didn't find quite what I was looking for, so..
I have an Excel 2003 spreadsheet work-in-progress being used as a template (developed by others) to prepare project cost estimates in a complex regulatory environment. We are 'modelling on the fly' for a number of projects until we are comfortable with the estimate model, after which time I intend to incorporate our 'stable' estimate methodology into Access. Meanwhile, I am 'stuck' with the Excel spreadsheet.
I have a project tracking database (Access 2003), and I want to be able to track my estimates. I do NOT want to embed my spreadsheets into the db, just a filelink. There can be more than 1 estimate per project.
Ideally, the user should be able to define a project in the Access db (or select one already defined) and click a 'make estimate' button, which would generate a new Excel file in a predefined directory (based on the present version of the .xlt file), give it an appropriate filename (based on the Access ProjectID and estimate sequence number for that project if there were others already), open up that workbook in Excel, and then autopopulate some cells based on information showing on the original form in Access!
A separate button for 'Open existing estimate' will eventually be required, but I think I could do that if I can get someone to walk me through the steps required above.
I am somewhat familiar with vba in Access, but am an absolute rookie when it comes to excel.
Edit: I left out that I would also add an appropriate record to a table like tblEstimate which would contain the link(s) to the estimate(s). This table will obviously contain a FK to tblProject
I'm having multiple problems with my database like things such as -
i'm currently working on the Query 2 - On the Phone database (ignore Query 1) and i want to search for multiple plot numbers preferably in one parameter prompt with a comma to seperate numbers. (this could be a multitude of numbers so i would like to be able to input as many as needed). Also when i do search on this query since the Criteria is a 'Between' Value i would expect everything between the 2 numbers input to show up - but a lot of numbers out of the range show up too - why is this? (The Numbers are like "69 to 136" and they will show up - but 1-69 and 136-170 would too
I would also like to implement the search results from Query 2 into the Form i currently have made but it just opens up a access table when the search is made?
i cannot link my database as it is too big for the server - But here are the Criteria for Query 2:
Plot No - (criteria = Between [Enter First Plot No:] And [Enter Last Plot No:])
Site - (criteria = Like "*" & [Enter Site:] & "*")
Product - (criteria = Like "*" & [Enter Product:] & "*"
The Query is the one im most concerned about , i can live without a form.
Ok so in excel I have some numbers that are stored as text. The reason being that they are zip codes and some begin with 0 and excel doesn't want numbers to start with 0....so when I import these into an access field that has an input mask for zip codes...will it convert these correctly since the field is a text with input mask?

Hi,
I thank everyone in advance if they can help me with this.
What i would like to do is display the record number on my form in between the record navigation buttons that i have allready added.
I can hear poeple now saying, " why dont i display the navigation buttons in the form properties?" and the reason i do not wish to do this is because i do not want poeple to be able to add a new record!
so, if someone can help me remove the "New Record" button from the standard navigation then that would be excelent.... but if not then how can i replicate the record number into my form?
Thank you all again for your help with this

I tried to put one text box and typed as follows:

This kind of text box we normaly use to count records on Reports and it counts well. But this did not support me on form.
I need, it should display records from 1,2,3 and so on upto the last record entered for that invoice.. Each new invoice should start from 1 to the last record number.
Any idea ?
