Hi all,
I'm trying to set up a holiday register. In my holiday table i have the following fields HolidayID, PersonID, StartDate, EndDate. I would like to have a final field which auto-calculates the number of days taken between start and end date. I read somewhere this should be done in a query using the DateDiff expression but I can't seem to get this to work.
Any ideas please?
Thanks all!
How to set up my tables as I'm just starting off with setting my database up.
I'm doing a simple database to track the purchase orders (PO) I am managing. Each PO has a PO Number and an Original Value. POs may have multiple amendments which would change the PO value. I would however like to keep the history of the PO original value and all different amendments.
So I created two tables:
tblPO:
ID
PO Number (Number)
PO Original Value (Currency)
PO Sum of Amendments (???????????)
PO Current Value (Calculated = PO Original - PO Sum of Amendments)
tblPOAmendments:
ID
PO (Lookup from tblPO)
PO Amended Value (Currency)
Amendment Date (Date/Time)
Amendment Desc (Text)
Now the two, million dollar questions are:
1.) Is this the right table structure to use.
2.) How do I go about calculating the Sum of Amendments field?
I have parts that go into and out of inventory. Each time a part is removed or returned, the user inputs the number into the computer. I was wondering how I could link the numbers so that as parts were removed or added, the total number in inventory and the total number on the floor automatically changed. Thanks so much.

IIf([Field1]=1 Or 2 Or 3 Or 4 Or 11 Or 12 Or 13 Or 21 Or 22 Or 28,[Field2]*0.06,IIf([Field1]=5 Or 6 Or 14 Or 15 Or 23 Or 24 Or 29,[Field2]*1.1,[Field2]*2.1))
I receive nor errors but it will only return the value of [Field2]*.06 no matter what is selected in [Field1].
I'm sure I'm missing something and there is probably an easier syntax to use, but I'm at a loss at the moment.
hey guys . .
I have 3 fields: TEST, NETQTY, EXTENDED
NETQTY usually = EXTENDED depending on the TEST
BUT the Test PTCGCD has a EXTENDED value that is TWICE the value of NETQTY
How do i create a query which will update the EXTENDED field depending on the TEST value>?
For Example:
The general TESTS: AFP, ANAS, CYC etc . . EXTENDED = NETQTY(1)
PTCGCD: EXTENDED = NETQTY(2)
?

Hi guys,
I have a mainform "frm_CaseReference" and a subform "subfrm_CasesControls".
In the main form I have "DOB" field and in the subform I have "DateSlideTaken" and "AgeAtSmear" fields.
I want to automatically calculate age in the "AgeAtSmear" from the "DOB" and "DateSlideTaken" but having problems.
I have tried the following code but it doesnt work:
=DateDiff("yyyy",Forms!frm_CaseReference!DOB-[DateSlideTaken],Now()
I have read it is not good idea to store age but my work place want this so i have to include it. Can someone please help....
I am trying to get one of my fields to calculate this expression which includes other fields:
If "Financing Type" = 1 or 2 THEN 20% * "Loan Amount" OR
If "Financing Type" = 3 or 4 THEN 100% * "Loan Amount" = 2,000,000.
I thought that this would work, but it only works in queries or reports.
=IIF([FinanceType]<3,[LoanAmount]*.2,[LoanAmount])
I would like this to work in the table.
i have got this table
Table 1:-- List of available classes
Design view
Class -- Primary key ---text
Subject ----text
Num. Lessons---- Number
Enrolments ---- Number
Max Class Size--- Number
Action -- Calculated because if enrollment is higher then max. class size then its says full otherwise it will tell enrol
Table 2:-- Teacher And Class Income
Class --- text
enrolment --- number
max class size ---- number
income per enrolment ----- currency
incomer per class ----- currency ?
1) but what i wanna do is if i change enrollment and max class size VALUE IN TABLE 1 ... i want that change in table 2 enrollment and max. class size FIELD AS WELL For e.g. if i change enrollment =25 and max class size = 30 ,,, i want that change in table 2 .......so i want that table 2 should display Enrollment = 25, max class size = 30 ,I want this things in TABLES not queries , what should i do... and i compulsory have to use access... NOT EXCEL.
2) then i want that Total Incomer per class (In Table 2) = Enrollment * Income per enrollment so that value should be display on total incomer per class ....So if i change enrollment value ... then the total income per class value has to change ....
3) i want in table that my total income in all class should display in same table ( Table 2)
I have nearly achieved this from an example on the Microsoft site but am having problems with the subforms. Can anyone take a look and if possible provide me with guidance as to what I am doing wrong. The instructions are included.Any help with this would be very much appreciated. Kind regards. Bernard

I have a several fields on my form that are list boxes that must have text as the properties so I can populate the lookup data with things like" Severe rating = 7 points" and "Moderate rating = 3 points". I have another similar field where the choices are "High probability = 9 points" and "Low probability = 2 points" etc. A third field needs to show the total points (product) of the choices from the first two fields, i.e. 9 points x 2 points = 18 points. Then,
a fourth field needs to display where the answer falls in a grid, i.e. 1-14 points = Low, 15-29 points = medium, 30-49 points = high, etc.
How do I apply the calculations on the field choices if the field properties have to be text instead of number?
Thanks,

Thought I'd be able to find out easily, but.. here I am...
How can I query the number of occurrences of a string in a field, e.g.:
if a name field has the text: Martin Lacoste
how can I get it to tell me there are two "a"s in the field?
I can use InStr to find one, and make a few more queries to find a few subsequent, but the data I need to search could have 30-40 occurrences of the desired text in a field.
Ideas?
Thanks!

If I have the field name as below:
Oil quantity
Accumulate Oil quantity
Date
Recordnumber
I want to get value of "Accumulate oil quantity" of current record to be equal to sum of "Oil quantity" from first record till the current record:
Let say
after I input "oil quantity" in the record # 1 ,2 & 3
The "Accumulate oil quantity" of record value show below:
"Accumulate oil quantity" of record#1 = "Oil quantity" of record#1
"Accumulate oil quantity" of record#2 = "Oil quantity" of record#1 + "Oil quantity" of record#2
"Accumulate oil quantity" of record#3 = "Oil quantity" of record#1 + "Oil quantity" of record#2+"Oil quantity" of record#3
Anyone know , please help
Thank you so much
i have 1 table name "table1"and i have in this table 4 fields
1) id
2)pay
3) tax
4) total
The id is primary. I have form in this form i have 3 text box "pay" "tax" "total". i want to insert some number to pay and number to tax and make some button to make calculation of the 2 text box and it will show me the result in the total and insert them to the fields.
is there any way I can make a field with a data type that calculates numbers in the field but also allows text to be entered into the field (e.g. N/A or No Score) The non-numerical data certainly wouldn't have to be calculated and could be filtered out when calculating averages and other numerical operations.
Thanks
I have a table where there are multiple vehicles, each identified by their vehiclenumber. Each record holds the vehiclenumber, date and odometer reading. I need to figure out how to calculate records in this table per each vehiclenumber.
Below is a code that works, but only when i have each vehicle with the same vehiclenumber.
SELECT tblOdometer.VehicleNum, tblOdometer.ODate, tblOdometer.Odometer, tblOdometer.Odometer AS OdomAlias,
Nz(DLast("Odometer","tblOdometer","[Odometer] < " & [OdomAlias]),0) AS Previous, [Odometer]-[Previous] AS Difference
FROM tblOdometer;
I need to have a field in a database that will calculate the age of a person, based on their DOB. I have it in the excel sheet that I imported into Access to create the data base, but it just copied the number that was already there. When I add new entries into the database, the age isn't calculated. How do I do this?
The forumla I use in my spreadsheet is: =DATEDIF(O2,TODAY(),"y")
I'm trying to summarize the value from multiple fields in a table and the total value will be updated on a different table as per highlighted below (taken from Northwind Web Database).

Is it possible to get field 2 to automatically fill with a number code due to the text typed in field 1?
FWIW, I'm confident at more basic Access e.g making follow on default value = Dlast("field""table") type stuff but the more complex stuff I haven't touched since Uni over a decade ago and you will need to be gentle while I blow away the cobwebs
Within my table if Field 1 has an answer of Self (from drop down), then, I would like Fields 6-12 to auto populate; however, if Field 1 does not have an answer of Self, then leave Fields 6-12 blank.
I am not quite sure how to lay this out. I am using Access 2010.
