I have a field which I enter a short time such as 3:13, 5:45, etc
Now i am creating a report which at the end of the report I would like to include an unbound text box, which displays the total amount of time for that field (pls note that the total will never exceeds 24 hours) What is the best formula to use in order to calculate this ?

Hello,
I am trying to sum minutes from a database using an Access query, but the format in the database is hh:mm. I know the query to use in Oracle:
ROUND(SUM((substr(actual_time,1,(instr(actual_time ,':' )-1))) *60 + (substr(actual_time,(instr(actual_time,':' )+1),2)))
but not sure of the syntax to use in an Access expression.
Any ideas?:confused:
HI,
Excel is having difficulties calculating a workbook of mine. It complains about cirkular references, so I had to set the iterations manually.
The workbook holds about 5000 records and I´m using a cosinus function.
The thing is I don´t know what to do. Excel calculates the workbook, but it doesn´t do it right. What setting should I use with the iterations?
I´m thinking of running it in excel 97. Will that help?
I really need to be able to run this workbook. Does anyone have an idea?
Fuga.
Hello, I didn’t know how to explain this or where to post this but here we go! I have two databases and one of the PC's here at work can’t use some of the items in the database like on one of the databases there is some formulas in text boxes and that PC won’t calculate what’s needed in them and every PC in the plant will except for this one PC. Also the one PC won’t bring up the Allen Browne's Calendar. When you press the start or end button to bring up the calendar it never pops up but if I enter the start date and end dates and use it that way ect then it works. I have no clue why this is just happening to this one PC. Any ideas?

i have a table with fields "[DATE OF BIRTH]", "age", "temp-age"
i have a query that calculate the age:
example; the query will get user to input the "temp-age" and upon "temp-age" is input and "ok" on the query, it will calculate a person's age and store the value inside table "age".
however, the calculated value for the age have some data problem. for example, when a person whose age is yy:mm 24:05 the age inside the table will be 1924:05. there will be a additional "19" at the age.
what cause the additional "19" problem?
---------------------------------------------------------------------
my query in design view is like this; (see attachment)
it uses " [temp-AGE]-[DATE OF BIRTH] " to calculate the age and store into table "age".

I am very new to databases, and think i am a bit over my head. I am doing a database for vacation rentals, and am trying to calculate commissions, basically i wanted to have a set of checkboxes, labeled 10%, 15%, 2.5% and $25, with any combination of these checkboxes being able to be checked.
i want the query to work like this:
If the 10% checkbox is checked i want the query to take the SubTotal for the reservation, and calculate 10% of that number. if the 2.5% checkbox is also checked, i want the query to calculate 2,5% of the reservation and add it to the commissions total (10% + 15%)
I think(hope) that i explained that clearly? Can this be done?
Thanks for your help!

In a report, I need to calculate the percentage of clients that respond "Yes" to a question on a survey. I need to create a query that will return the count of the number of "Yes" responses, and the number of total responses.
For example, if 10 clients complete the survey, and seven respond "Yes", I need the 2 fields in the query to be 7 and 10. So far, I have only been able to do this using multiple queries.
Thank you.
stuck in the middle of a project of employee payroll the following problems are for some suggestions:

how can i keep track of this in the db; can i use a table putting 7 days as fields and make it all yes/no so that user can check or uncheck the status against each employee(!); but for whole month how can i calculate
work period start from every month on 25th and ends on 24th in next month.
got tables for attendance and leave

Hey Guys.
I have a sub form based on an order table. I had another table which lists products which customers can buy. In the products table I have a field named "units on order" which I'd like to update when an order is made in the form and a field named "units in stock" which upon the user opening the order form again and clicking a button to say that particular order has been delievered, the "units in stock field in the products table will had added the quantity chosen in the order form.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

Hi,
I have a from with 3 fields on it where users can enter numbers of boxes attached to a booking.
Each field stands for a box of a certain type.
E.g.:
20's ==> 1
40's ==> 1
45's ==> 1
Now, I want to calculate a total based on 40 being 1, 20 being 0,5 and 45 being 1,125.
The total in this case would be:
2*20 = 0.5
1*40 = 1
1*45 = 1.125
Total: 2.625
Is this possible, and, if yes, how do I insert this calculation?
Don't know if this is clear enough, if someone has any questions on my goal here, please ask me to clarify...
Thx once more,

On this db, the users input a FROM date and a TO date to apply for leave, and the number of days required is calculated. I was able to get this done, but the problem is if they want leave for only half a day. The term that we usually use is FN and AN. What I want is this: If they choose FN to FN, or AN to AN, we should get .5. If they select FN to AN or AN to FN that is one day. Saturdays, Sundays and certain other days are holidays. On Table2 I have a FROM field and a TO field, but no field for AN/FN (yet). How can we accomplish this?
View 11 Replies View RelatedI am relatively new to Access, and wasn't sure if this is query-related or not. I am trying to set up a database in Access 2013 for vehicle maintenance and fuel tracking. I have a table called "fuel" where I enter fuel purchases (including mileage at fillup, total cost, total gallons, etc.)
I want to have a field in this table called "MPG". This field, for a given row, will take the number from the "mileage" field and find the total miles traveled by looking back through the previous rows and finding the next highest mileage. It will then divide this difference by the number entered in the "gallons" field for the current row, and this will give the number for the "MPG" field.
I'm sure I'm making this sound way more complicated than it is - I'm pretty sure everyone knows how to do an MPG calculation - and I could do it with Excel by just using VLOOKUP or INDEX/MATCH (or even just by assuming that all fuel entries are chronological and looking back at the previous row). Just not sure how to accomplish this in Access!

Hello, I have volunteered to do a database for the school of nursing to use at a small Christian University using Microsoft Access 2003. I have Students, and each of these students is going to take each of these 12 nursing courses. Each nursing course has a specific number of credit hours (2,3,6, etc.) and they are to receive a grade for each class (on a 4 point scale, so their grades are going to be a number 0 for F through 4 for an A). I need to have access calculate a running GPA which only takes into consideration the classes they have completed thus far. Any help would be appreciated. I can do it in excel by just leaving the row for untaken courses blank, then autosumming the credit hours column for total hours taken. I can use a formula for each row that just multiplies the grade (like 4.0) by the credit hours (like 3) and get a total grade points of 12 for that course. Then I can add those numbers up(autosum the total grade points column) and devide by the calculated autosum number I would call total hours. I hope it is clear what I am trying to do and why I don't know how to do it in Access. ***************Extra Info*********
I have a student table and each student has a unique studentID, I have a second table called Nursing grades which I have a Student ID field, and 2 fields for each class a grade recieved and a credit hours field (ex. I have PharmacologyGR and PharmacologyCH, NursingResearchGR and NursingResearchCH). If I need to redesign how I have my tables I can do that, I have a unique Course ID for each course I could put in if needed. Basically, I'll do whatever it takes to get this to work.
Thank you so much for even reading this far, and any help would be appreciated more than you know.
How do I calculate the values between two columns and populate a third column with those new values? I have an ''Actual Cost'' column and ''Budget Cost'' column and I would like to create a third column ''Margin.''
Is this something that needs to be done with a query or can it be handeled in the design view of a table? I'm starting to learn that Access works nothing like Excel.
Thank you in advance for any help. I scanned some of the threads in this forum, but many were beyond my comprehension. Any walk-through of this procedure would be much appreciated.
Last monday's [Feed Inv]+ this weeks [Feed Del] - this weeks [Feed Inv]= Feed Consumed
Table:
Autonumber (is PK)
Date
Farm
Barn
Lbs Del (pounds delivered)
Lbs Inv (pounds inventoried, this is a physical inventory done at farm)
I can use Between[Start Date] And [End Date] in the criteria to show this weeks Lbs Del and Lbs Inv in a query, no problem.
How do I tell the query or report to subtract 7 from the Start Date to pull last weeks feed inventory?
The result will be displayed in a report, so calculating in a report would be ideal.
Thanks,
SM
I have 4 fields in my table and form (Towing Charges) (Storage Charges) (Other Charges) and (Total Charges). I need to have Towing Charges, Storage Charges & Other Charges to calculate and populate in my Total Charges field. I tried a script in the control source of the field, but its not working. I probably have the script wrong.
Thanks Everbody
I have built a table with a field name of Birth date and have applied an input mask to have the data shown as: ##/##/##. Now, I would like to have another field labeled age. Is there a formula that I can create to have access calculate this in my table? I have tried "=mydate()-"Date Of Birth"" in the validation rule under the properties of the Age field; however, I keep getting an error. Any suggestions?
