Calculating Values In A Text Box

Nov 24, 2005

Hi everyone

i have been struggling on this database that i am developing for a while and i haven't found a solution yet.

i have a Two tables

Table 1
"Attendance" with fields
Attendance ID,
Hours,
Group ID.

table 2
"Days" fields,
Day ID
Week beginning
Monday
Tuesday
Wednesday
Thursday
Friday
Hours

now i have created a form from these two tables, and what i wanted was each day of the week i will input a value under the day and i wanted it to be added up and then the result outputted to the "Hours" Box.

My dilema is that although i have figured out how to add up the fields in the form view by changing the Control source for the Hours box to something like
=[Monday]+[Tuesday]....[Friday]
this will only display the value in form view, the table will not update. i guess this is because the control source is not relating to te table anymore.

so if someone has some other ideas i would appreciate it.
regards
Yusef

Calculating Values

May 2, 2006

I am not sure whether I posted in the right place but here's the deal: I have a form and a subform based on two tables and on the form I create a mathematical expression concerning a field which is based on another. The results are correct but of course the values in the table remain the same (null). Is there a way to have a formula in the table and then when I create the form based on that table to have the formula ready? BTW where are the data stored if they are not stored in that table?

Calculating Values Vis-à-vis A Report

Aug 30, 2004

Just wondering if anybody could help me on this. I have encountered a problem in producing a report based on my main form (recordsource: tblStudents) and subform (recordsource:tblStudentsClasses), which are joined through their respective StudentID fields. My problem pertains to the fact that I just couldn’t seem to find a way to make my report produce a calculated value using an unbound control. I need it to show the average grade a student gets every semester by multiplying his individual class grades against its corresponding credit units and then add them together, and divide them against the sum total of that particular semester’s credit units. For example, a grade of 1.0 for psychology 101 multiplied by that subject’s 3 credit units + a grade of 2.0 for chemistry 101 multiplied by that subject’s 5 credit units and then divided by the sum total of those two subject’s credit units of 8.

I kinda find it complicated because each semester is made up of between 1 to 10 classes, so it would be inappropriate to just put the one average computation on a footer since each semester has to have an average grade of its own. Tried lots of procedure already and couldnt make anyone of them work. Another fact is that a credit unit of –3 and grade of 5.0 shouldn’t be included in the computation at all. And some of my data are supplied by combo boxes in the subform – cboCreditUnits and cboGrades (rowsources: tblClasses and tblGrades). How should I go about this all? Any ideas will be highly appreciated.

Thanks!

AfterUpdate - Values Not Calculating

Apr 15, 2008

Below is the code I have created to calculate the values "CalcValue" and "CalcWork". The values for AssignValue, AssignPriority, Complex, Effort, Goal are all assigned by the selection made in the referred to/related combo boxes. However, the caluclated values return the concatonation of the intergers and not the sum of the integers. Additionally, if I am to use the CDec() function how do I specify the number of decimal places?

what am I missing here?

thanks!

Private Sub cboAssignPriority_AfterUpdate()

Dim CalcValue, AssignValue, AssignPriority, Complex, Effort, Goal, CalcWork As Integer

Value = 0
AssignValue = 0
AssignPriority = 0
CalcValue = 0
CalcWork = 0

AssignValue = Me!cboAssignValue.Column(3)
AssignPriority = Me!cboAssignPriority.Column(2)

Complex = cboDBObjectID.Column(2)
Effort = cboTaskTypeID.Column(3)
Goal = cboAgencyGoalID.Column(2)

Value = AssignValue + AssignPriority
CalcWork = Complex + Effort + Goal
CalcValue = CDec(Value)

CalcValue = Me!lngCalPriority

Debug.Print "Complex="; cboDBObjectID.Column(2)
Debug.Print "Effort="; cboTaskTypeID.Column(3)
Debug.Print "Goal="; cboAgencyGoalID.Column(2)
Debug.Print "AssignValue.Column(3)="; cboAssignValue.Column(3)
Debug.Print "AssignPriority.Column(2)="; cboAssignPriority.Column(2)
Debug.Print "Value ="; Value
Debug.Print "CalcValue ="; CalcValue
Debug.Print "CalcWork ="; CalcWork

End Sub

Calculating And Storing New Values From Existing Ones

Jan 30, 2006

I am pretty new to access, I will get right to it.

I am scoring rating scales. I want to be able to enter just the responses from a person, say on 80 questions (preferably into a form), where all the answers are 0 to 3 and have Access add the questions into the right groups to calculate all the sub-scores of the rating scale.
For example, Scale A may consist of Questions 1, 6, 15, 29, 35, and 70
I need access to add those up and save them so I can use them in a report.
I also need access to add the frequency of certain questions that were responded to with the answer 3.
I have gotten Access to calculate the scores in a form by adding extra variables to the form, erasing the variable name out of the white box and putting in the syntax =[Q1]+[Q6]+[Q15], etc. in place of a variable name but it just sits there on the form and doesn't store it anywhere.
Thanks

Calculating The Difference Between 2 'Time' Values

Nov 12, 2007

Hi, I wonder if someone can help me with the following problem:

I have a table with 2 columns,start time and end time, both containing time values in a four digit format, eg 0930 being 9:30am etc.

I have made a query to convert these into the standard format (eg 0930 becomes 09:30), using left/right and & functions.

Now I use the timevalue function to convert the string , eg 09:30m into a recongnised time value.

The problem is now I want to find the difference between the start and end times- but when i try a simple end_time - start_time formule it returns a long number which i dont understand, rather than just giving me the difference betwen the two times.

Im sure there is a simple way to do this which I dont know, can anyone help me out? Thanks in advance!

Reports :: Calculating Values In A Report

Jul 29, 2015

we have a field in a report, and currently, there is a text box with a control source of

=IIf([Flag1]="Capital",[Reserve]-Sum([Text52]),"")

They want me to add to it, where if [Text106]="0",[Reserve]-[Text52], otherwise it's [Text106]="0",[Reserve]-[Text106].I am able to do this second part OK with

=IIf([Text106]="0",[Reserve]-[Text52],[Reserve]-[Text106])

But then I lose the [Flag1]="Capital" part.

Queries :: Calculating The Difference In Values In Two Different Records?

Aug 12, 2015

I have a query that must calculate the different between values in two different records, based on the date.

The underlying ORIGVALUES table contains:

Date; Value; Diff
1/10/15; 100; (this is what I am trying to calc)
1/11/15; 101; (this is what I am trying to calc)
1/14/15; 102; (this is what I am trying to calc)

What is the best way to have each record calculate the selected date value divided by the prior date value)? E.g.

For 1/11 the math is 101 / 100 (so the 1/11/15 record would show the result of 1.01)
For 1/14 the math is 102 / 101 (1/11 to 1/14 represents a weekend)

I could copy the prior day values to the current day records and do that math easily but that is very redundant.

Queries :: Calculating And Returning Values From External Database?

Jan 2, 2014

I have created a link to a CRM system that we have, and am using access as an interface for a specific task with the data contained within this CRM.

I have written a query that pulls to fields of data together but cannot get the two to calculate.

Within SQL server management studio I use the following query to give me a numerical response.

SELECTPRCPRICE,SUM(CAST(VL2BENEFICIALASNUMERIC (20,6))*CAST(PRCPRICEAS MONEY)))ASHOLDINGVALUE

Access doesn't appear to accept the cast functionality / how I can perform a similar functionality with access?

I am using workdays to calculate time passed between two dates. I also have a table for Holidays that I don't want counted as work days. This is working well, but I would like my queries to show a null value instead of showing #Error when a date field is empty. Here is my coding in my Module.

Queries :: Calculating Percentage - Exclude Null Values From Expression

Mar 10, 2014

I'm trying to create an expression to calculate percentage.

The fields, Value A and Value B might both have null values, but I do not want Access to treat nulls as zero (as in the Nz() fn). How do I get the expression to exclude any nulls and not calculate for those rows, but set the calculated value for a row with null A or B to zero.

I want it to set no calculated value to zero so I don't get overflow errors and can therefore order the data by the calculated field.

Calculating Text In Tables

Dec 12, 2007

I need help. I want a field in my table that generates an Log number.

I already have fields:
I.D. number (sequential number)
Project Name (Text field)
Milestone (Number field)

The Log number should be made up of the first two letters from the Project Name, then the Milestone, then the ID number. The three parts of the Log number should be separated by hyphens.
So if:
I.D. number = 01
Project Name = Nice Light
Milestone = 03

Then Log number would = NI_03_01

On my form I have managed to get this to happen using an unbound calculated text box, but I need the log number displayed in the table, and this seems impossible.

Any help? Important things to note are I am not very clever when it comes to computers, or programming.

Cheers

Forms :: Default Values Disappear If Put Values In Text Boxes

Sep 17, 2013

In Access 2010 I have a Data Entry Form on which I have an unbound textbox in the header that the user can put a default date in. In the body of the form is a bound textbox that records the date and the default value is set as =defaultdatestat (obviously the name of the box in the header).

Problem: The default date shows up perfectly until a value is put in any of the other text boxes.

For further info : If you put values in text boxes default value disappears; if you then push escape the default value reappears when the values in the text boxes disappear.

Modules & VBA :: Calculating Information For A Text Field On A Form From A Query

Aug 4, 2014

I have a data entry form [Resources] and I would like to display some information about holidays in the form footer. Once the user has picked a combination of Trainer_Name and Start_Date I would like the 'On Change' or 'On lost Focus' event (not sure which would be the best) to perform a datediff calculation.

The datediff calculation would compare the difference between the start date entered on the form and the most recent past Start_Date on a query called [Hours Holiday_P1].I could adapt the same code to also look for the difference between the End_Date on the form and the next Start_Date on the Query.The idea is that when resourcing trainers I know how long it is since and how long it is till their next holiday.The sql for the query is

Code:
SELECT Resourcing.Start_Date, Resourcing.Trainer_Name, Resourcing.Duration, Time.Hours, [Hours]/7.4 AS Days
FROM (Resourcing INNER JOIN Employees ON Resourcing.Trainer_Name = Employees.Trainer_Name) INNER JOIN [Time] ON Resourcing.Duration = Time.Time
WHERE (((Resourcing.Start_Date) Between DateSerial(Year(Date())-IIf(Month(Date())<4,1,0),4,1) And DateSerial(Year(Date())+IIf(Month(Date())>3,1,0),3,31)) AND ((Resourcing.Activity) Like "Holiday*"))
ORDER BY Resourcing.Start_Date;

Using Values From A Text Box In Row Source

May 13, 2005

I have a combo box which has a table/query row source type. For the row source, I want to use a query that contains some data from text boxes on the form. I'm currently trying:

SELECT [LAB],[COAT] FROM [University] WHERE [COLOR]=tbColor.value AND [TYPE]=tbType.value;

Although this is a valid query, I don't get any results when used as a row source. No errors, just no results.

Thanks in advance...

Crosstab Query With TEXT Values?

Nov 14, 2007

This is almost a cross-forum post. I started a post in the reports forum to see if it were possible to sort/group the data by field values. Everyone knows this can be done row-by-row, but I was looking for a way to do it horizontally as well.


...........[quarter]="Fall".....[quarter]="Winter"........[quarter]="Spring"........[Quarter]="Summer"
2005.....Relevant Fields........Winter Stuff..................Spring stuff................Summer Stuff
|
2006
|
2007

It should look something like that where the years are values of [year] field and the seasonal quarters are values of [quarter] field.

I have been searching for something that will help me do this when I ran across information on the "crosstab" query. This, in principal is what I am looking for BUT I am not dealing with numeric data here. Is there still a away to make a crosstab query/report with text fields where there would normally be numeric data?
