I have a form based on a query that gives the user 4 choices (check boxes), if they check the box an amount is put into a text box (this is done with an expression in the query) and this works fine. What I can't work out is how I total the amounts into a 5th text box - I have tried =[Expr1]+[Expr2]+[Expr3]+[Expr4] and it displays the 4 seperate amounts as if it is joining 4 text strings - the fields are formatted as currency. I don't know enough to figure this one out, I'm sure it is quite straightforward, but I need you guys to help me please!
This is my first post to the forum and thanks so far for the answers I have gotten already just by searcing. I've got to a point where I don't even know what question to ask for this problem:
I have created a sub-form to a 'clients' form called 'Needs' showing a list of 13 specific needs of people that my team support. Each need has to be scored from 1 to 10 and be re-scored every three months (or sooner). I also have a total score field that will be used to summarise the distance travelled in a persons move towards independance that I would like to be able to put in to some form of chart to give the person a visualisation of how well they are doing and where necessary, where more work is needed through charts showing distance travelled on each individual need.
I have named each need in a table and set the data type to number with a field size of double. I have called the total scores field 'total.
How do I get the scores from the 13 needsfields in to the total field?
Thanks for reading, and for any assistance offered.
I designed a form for my place of business. We do estimates for roofing and construction and the form is really basic in terms of MS Access and it's potential.
But I'd like to modify it to have it make certain calculations. The way I have it setup is... on the left of the form are different fields for. Shingles, Plywood, Metal Drip Edge, so on and so forth.
This is a line pretty much of the entire form: (noted this is only what it shows)
[checkbox] Tear Off [Shingles Text Field] First Layer [# of Sqs. Field] X [FIELD = Per Square] Per Sq. = [Field = Total]
This is the way I would like to set it up.
I dont' know if the check box would complicate things but here is my idea: If Check - # of Sqs. X Price Per Sq. = Total Price
Then I would also like to have Total Price + All Checked Total Prices = Grand Total.
I don't know if that is too complicated. I don't know anything about MS Access other than adding fields to keep data into the Database. I played with the expressions but I couldn't figure it out.
I have created a form with a subform and I want to subtract the total of the subform from the total of the form to get a balance; i.e. I have a total of expenses on the form and the subform is a record of payments against the expenses and I want to show a balance.
I have been all over this one and can not make the expression work. I have been working in Access for some time but this one has me stumped, I am probably over thinking it or just can't see the forest for the trees.
I have gone into the expression builder and created the formula but when I complete the process I get the #name? error statement in the field.
Can anyone help me with this problem? Thank you in advance. You can send responses to sharon.dunn@newmont.com.
I have a Size Breakdown with 8 Buckets..I'd like to Sum the contents of the buckets and divide that to Total Yards then have the result saved to a field(Per Garment) in a table (Marker Details Table).Per Garment = Size Breakdown / Total Yards (25 / 7 = 3.57).
I managed to create a FORM that has fields that calculates basic additions/subtractions formula but for some reason the fields on the TABLE does not update?? Any suggestions?
I am having trouble calculating a field in a table and on a form. I have the following Tables CUSTOMER: Customer No, Name, Address, City, State, Zip, Discount, Phone, Fax, Contact Person. ORDER: Customer No, Order No, Order-Date, Delivery-Date. ORDER LINE: Order No, Product No, Quantity Ordered, line-item-cost PRODUCT: Product No, Description, Price, Product Image.
I need to calculate the line-item cost and need it to update every time the user enters a new Quantity ordered on the ORDER LINE form. I know its (Quantity Ordered*Price)-(Price*Discount) and I did this is a query and it worked but I need it to update in the form and update in the table not the query. I have tried everything (Macros, Queries, and Formulas) and I just can not get it to work. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks
I tried to create search Form in access and after trying for while I finally made it. I have drug down the "query" to the design view of "Form Search" and added up there. Now using "STD" and "TELENO" I can search for these 3 coloumns. My main table is "Example"
Now as you can see in my attached screen shot Column "Recieved Time- less than 3 month" I would like to do that in Access. I would like to create something that will autometically calculte(Substract) the date from "Order Date to Today's date and will give me a result= "Less than 3 months or Greater or less than 4 months etc". I mean it will always substract from "Order Date" to "Todays Date". I have tried with some macro as well but it did not show up "Todays date"
I tried several ways to do it, even tried to input another coloumn(Using formula) in "Query" table but failed to do so.
I have my main menu form that shows the current time and uses the OnTimerEvent for this. (Set to 1000) Issue is that when I open another form it keeps showing Calculating. It does not seem to affect performance but keeps the status bar from showing the control explanations.
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;
I have a table with 2 coloums with nuberin them. I would like to add those 2 number together and display them in a 3rd coloum. I need to automatically change the 3rd coloums value should any others change. Is this possible?
age: DateDiff("yyyy",[DOB],Now())+Int(Format(Now(),"mmdd")<Format([DOB],"mmdd"))Dob is stored yyyyddmmI thought this above function looks ok. When I run it, I get a data type mismatch in criteria expression.What am I missing?Any help would be appreciated.Thanks
in the subform i have 2 fields: duur and subtotaal in duur i enter a number. in subtotaal a calculation has to occur: =20*([duur]/60) i tried to do this calculation in VBA but then i got the same value on every record in the subform.
But now the problem: in the mainform i have a control 'totaal' that needs to do a DSum of subtotaal. And here i am getting into troubles since subtotaal is not stored in the table but calculated.
The formulla for DSum would be: Me.Parent!totaal = DSum("subtotaal", "tblFacturenDetail", "[FactuurID] = " & Me.Parent!FactuurID)
I am designing a new database for our life and disability department and they have several different policies where the base life insurance reduces at certain ages.

I have a database containing values in 16 fields. the fields are filled in over a period of three years. I would like to be able to calculate the average of the last four values entered, regardless of when in the cycle the value is required. I have tryed to use quereies but connot find away to assign the four fields to the expression so that it is the last four values and if four don't exist, avearage what values there are.
I am new to Microsoft Access (2002) and the Access Word Forums. I am in need of a way to calculate timespent on six main topics through an 8 hr. working day. If I worked on Topic "A" from 8:00am to 8:15am, I need it to calculate it to 15 minutes. Then I need to figure a way to calculate how much time was spent doing Topic "A" for the working day, then by the workweek, then by the month.
I'm willing to learn, if someone has the time to teach or can direct me to a link that discusses something similar to what I am looking for. Any and all suggestions welcomed. I am looking forward to doing this in a timesheet format if possible.
Hi, I think this should be simple, but I am struggling to work it out
In a relational database I have a stock table containing stock and quantities, there is a customer table with an order table used as the link table also containing quantities.
What I am trying to do is place an order using an order form linked to the order table, automatically reducing the stock table by the amount ordered.
I have tried an update query with no success, also tried using the builder to make a query and linked it to the stock table with no success.
I would be grateful for any ideas, I am sure it is relatively simple
New to the forum, and its nice to see how active this place is, and upto date.
My question is, and probably simple to correct. ( Please be patient with me, i`m new to this, and my terminology might be incorrect, also please simple answers ) I`ve searched the forums, but as my teminology is wrong I cant find the results im after :)
Anyway, I have a table with many fields in it, but the parts i`m having problems with are as follows. I have fields with Price Inc Vat, Deposit Payment, Stage Payment, Balance Payment & Balance Due.,
The part im trying to get to work is the balance due which I want to automatically update, based in the data inputed into price inc vat deposit payment etc.
The calculation i`m after is as followes Balance Due = ( Total Ammount Inc Vat - Depost Payment - Stage Payment - Balance Payment ) eg, Total Ammount Inc VAt = £2000 Depost paid is £1000 so far balance due would be £1000 Then Final Payment is made 2 weeks later £1000 So balance due would then show £0.00
Is this possible
Thanks in advance

[edit]
Just to let you know, I also need these details kept in the table for future reference so I dont think I can use a query to do it. I`ve attached a copy of the database with some example data in it if this is needed for any assistance.
I'm suppose to create a list of 20 clients and let 5 accounts be 90 days past due, 5 over 60 days, 5 over 30 days three of each of the accounts have a balance over $75. Then it asks me to create a total of all account balances so that the total amount of recievables can be known. The second part is calculate the number of days each balance has been outstanding.My question is this can you calculate dates in a table or can you only calculate in a query. I'm new at access so have patience with my question(s)
Hi I'm building database for a car shop. One of my table (Cars) has these two fields in it intModelPrice (which stores factory price of a model) and intPriceWithTax (which value should mathematicaly be intModelPrice+[(intModelPrice)*(18/100)]).
Now, can I set my default value of intPriceWithTax to be calculated by this formula and how? I tried some combinations but I got various error messages.
I red Tips section on your site and saw that default value can't be calculated. I know how to get what I want in the select query but I want this table field (intPriceWithTaxt) to be acctualy filled with number value each time I enter a new record in this table (for a new car model). How do I acomplish this? Thanx.
P.S. - I searched the forum for answer but I had no luck.
My situation is two-fold: 1-I'm having difficulty coming up with a query that will calculate the weighted avg. of each quarter in the prior year and current year, 2-what to do about the current year's quarter when only 1 or 2 month's worth of data exists?
Can anyone help - it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
I have a table containing the following fields : Sex(text), Age(numeric), sodium concentration(numeric).
I am trying to write a query which will return the percentage of male patients have a sodium concentration of a certain range (ex:120-130) out of the TOTAL number of patients. I am able to count the number of events which fit the criteria but I cannot figure out a way to calculate the percentage part (unless i manually add a field in which I devide the count result by total number of patients).
It’s been a while but I have been visiting from time to time. Just been busy with a load of web design.
Anyhoo, I have been asked to create a report on total revenue generation for projects and have taken it as far as I can, and now need your help.
I have two queries “qryCommTrialsRevenue_PatientEvents” and “qryCommTrialsRevenue_StudyCharges” that select income via two cost codes and between two dates.
Two further separate queries calculate the total for each project. That’s as far as I can take it at the moment and now I cannot see the wood for the trees…I need to calculate the total for each project ACROSS the tables. Can this be done successfully? Every time I try it the numbers don’t add up.
I have a question I need help for, below is a very strict detailed explination of the current scenario I am in and I need assistance for it:
1) I have a percentage of Commission I need to calculate, the percentage of commission constitudes of the following information:
a) Date, b) Customer Name, c) Company, d) Name, e) 5% New, f) 3% Ext, g) Rep, h) Doble Ref (0.025, 0.015), i) Total Amount, and j) Total of Commission.
If a person enters the same customer name more than ones, it will give that person's name a Doble ref (0.015) of commission, if on the other hand that customer is new it will give that person a commision of 0.05% new. I hope this is not intending to confuse you, it just gives the general idea of what the percentage of commission is intended to be.
To come back to the point, I have a form created under Access that holds all the names of the person's reference by in that case "Name" letter (d) described above. If I select for example a person name "Fahed" and I click on the button calculate new commission I want to be able to draw all the commissions that Fahed have done and then use the form above to do the approriate calculation.
The above is a general problem, below is the scenario:
I get a form called New Client, the form New Client is a parent form and underneath that form is a sub form which holds estimates, invoices and so on. Ones again I am giving you the picture of what the form looks like, I cannot paste the pictures here because they would take time and would not be clear. The new Client has a text field called Reference By. That text field is where I need to get for the Percentage of Commission form to be entered under the field Name, letter D (described above). The total of amount is extracted from the subform Invoice, total, of the parent form called New Client, and there is a check mark in the new client called "Already existed" that if I click it, that information is then send on a separate form called "PercentageOfCommission" that will determine if it calculates the percentag of 0.05 or 0.025 depending if it is Calculate Commission or calculate existing commission.
I want it to be able then to do the needed calculation which I already have the approriate formula for and then display in a report what is shown above.
I don't know how to get information from different forms, and I don't know how to display for example ALL FAHEDS with information but are related only to FAHED.
Ones again, let me give you an example: Date Name Info 15-Feb 05 Fahed Stonyx 15-Mar 05 Fahed Commodore ... 18-Sep 05 Ahmed Apple IIc
I want to display only one name Fahed and when I click for example display summary to show ALLLL the name that holds Fahed that have different Info. Any help would be greatly appreciate it.
