I have this statement that doesn't work...

How can i add two columns of the same table and update my query?
Thank you in advance!
I have a personal expenditure data base indicating daily expenditure on various heads ( File Attached). I want table to reflect expenditure on various heads on daily basis in COLTOT column. Any subsequent change in any of the field to be dynamically updated.Presently I am exporting file to excel and calculating the total there and then manually updating the COLTOT field. Other alternative I tried was to create a form and make a text field and sum the fields using formula like =nz([milk])+nz([vegetables]). I feel it may be unwieldy for such large number of expenditure heads.
View 14 Replies View RelatedHi, I'm a total newbie at Access, and know nothing about scripts. I've been operating at the level of using the Wizards and drop-down menus. I am trying to create a report that does two things:
1. Displays the results of queries that sum data from a table (I think I have this figured) and
2. Displays those sums as a percentage of a number that is input each time the report is run. (This is only one number that comes from a totally different place and has no prior relation to the data.)
Any help/advice that anyone could offer would be much appreciated!
Thanks!
Below is an example of my table "Pricedata" include 03 fields:
Stock Name ___Price________Status Date
A________________10________ __1/6/2008_
A________________11___________1/7/2008_
A________________12___________1/8/2008__
B________________22___________1/6/2008_
B________________25___________1/7/2008_
B________________29___________1/8/2008__
C________________2____________1/6/2008_
C________________2____________1/7/2008__
C________________3____________1/8/2008_
D________________56___________1/6/2008_
D________________45___________1/7/2008_
D________________27___________1/8/2008__
I want to create a query like this: can calcualte the price change and % price change in certain period, and then sort in % change.
This result should be like the table below:
StockName Change in three days % Change in 03 days
C 1 50%
B 7 31.8%
A 2 20%
D -29 -51.78%

I have a Database that contains a number Albums and Artists. I also have a table that contains orders from customers for these albms. Basically i want to track which album and artist is bought most? Can any one help?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI 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
Code:
DateAdd(Interval, Number, Date)
function. More specifically, I am using a bound form with a table that I need the date for. The date will be an integer from a specific record (based on a search) from a separate table, and then added to the current day's date (in days).
I have three tables that contain different columns but linked by a primary column call Name. I want to create a table where all these different columns in the three tables join to form a master table which can be updated regularly either through the master table or the smaller tables. The master table also has the primary column as Name.
If I update the master table with records, it should update the respective linked table and vice versa. I also want to link these tables to my SharePoint site.
Note: except the Name column, none of these tables have any other columns in common How do I go about this?

Hi, I have never had to do any maths with access before, so I don’t know where to start!
What I need to do is calculate remaining warranty information for products.
In the table I have 3 columns. the 1st column is "Purchase date (dd/mm/yy)" 2nd column is "Total warranty period (years)" and the 3rd column is "Remaining warranty"
The 3rd column is the one that will display how long is left to run! How do I achieve this?
Thanks.
I've made a membership database for an imaginary leisure centre as part of my A Level coursework - only after more or less finishing my project, I've realised that I haven't provided a way for the end users to calculate fees for members.
I suppose the calculation I would have to do is multiply the Length of Membership (days) field on the Membership Opportunities by Cost per Month on the MembershipTypes table.
These are the relevant tables and I've also attached my database (the password is "password" for any of the users) ...
Currently I have a form with these variables
- Assets
- Shifts
- Machine Offline Date
- Machine Offline Time
- Machine Online Date
- Machine Online Time
In the Asset Table I have recorded on each asset the number of shifts it operates for as well as starting / finishing time of those shift. e.g. 2 shift asset will start at 7:00AM finish at 11:00PM
or 3 shifts asset will start at 7:00AM finish at 6:59AM
Now I have 82 assets in the factory and 20% of those machines run 3 shifts. Each shift is 8 hrs.
What I have already done is allocate shifts per asset e.g.
when I pick Asset (a) in the Asset combo box, in the shift box it will automatically generate 2 or 3 dependant on what I have set.
If an asset runs for 2 shifts, it would mean that, that asset is operational/running from 0700 - 2300 or 7:00am - 11:PM
also if an asset runs for 3 shifts it would mean that, that asset is operational/running from 0700 - 0700 or 7:00AM - 7:00AM
These are the scenarios that is entered through a "Form"
Scenario A: Machine (a) breaks down at 1700/5:00PM on the 10/7/15 and was back online at 12:30 on 11/7/15, This machine runs for 3 shifts which would mean in the "Breakdown Downtime" the result should be 19.5 hrs
Scenario B: Machine (b) breaks down at 1900/7:00PM on the 10/7/15 and was back online at 10:00AM on 12/7/15, this machine runs for 2 shifts which would mean in the "Breakdown Downtime" the result would be 23 hrs.
I would like to make this an automatic calculation, Is this possible?
Please note I am not after a "Query", I need this calculation in the main Database table named "Tbl_MaintenanceDATA".
I understand this is not the norm and many have suggested against this, however for the purpose of what I need, it needs to be in the main table with all the other data.
Here are some snip it

I'm trying to make a query where it can calculate the difference between a table field value and a query field value.
Ex. Table INVOICE - fields
invoice no, invoice value,
Query TOTAL - fields
invoice no total invoice value
I need to get the difference between invoice value and total invoice value.
How can I put this into a query (invoice value - total invoice value)?
I have been trying for about 8 hours to calculate elapsed time between two fields into a third field in Access 2007. Unfortunately, the expression
IIf(IsNull)([Final Suspense]),DateDiff("d",[Routing Status Date],Date()),DateDiff("d",[Routing Status Date],[Final Suspense]))
is not working. Image enclosed....
When I use the code given to me the program complies but it does not show the new total price in the for box
dim a, b, c
a = me.[your quantity textbox]
b = me.[your price textbox]
c = a*b
me.[your total textbox] = c
This is the code I used and my total box is called (line_item_cost)
is there anything that I am doing wrong?
I have a table with staff in.
I have a table with the start and end of their shifts.
We have four possible locations and four weeks.
So I have four tables for each location.
I have a module that can work out hours and deductions based on time in and out. I built that into a seperate databse working on a one time in and one time out setup.
I want to incorporate the two so I can get the hours worked over four weeks at all locations and divide that by 4 to get the average weekly hours for a staff member.
Hello
I have two tables tblCList and tblCode. The primary key of tblClist is an autogenerated number which is the foreign key to the tblCode.
The tblCList has another column names sClist.
whenever I import values from Excel into the tblCode, I need Access to look up the text values from the sClist in the tblClist and insert the appropriate number corresponding to the entry in tblCode.
Please Help
Thanks
Is it possible for the primary key of one table to act as the foreign key in another table for more than one columns? What I'm trying to do is create a table for a Committee which will have 1 student and 5 professors! So Can I import the faculty ID for each of the 5 faculty members?When I try creating the second relationship, access automatically creates a new Faculty table for the relationship!

Here's some background on what I'm trying to do. I am building a database that will hold data on 31 parks. Each park will contain many advertisers and each advertiser may be in one or many parks. Theres more to this but i will just stick to what I am having trouble with.
The tables i have made thus far pertaining to my question are:
1. "Parks" table. It has two cols one for ParkID (key) and ParkName
2. "Advertisers" table. It has 9 cols for things such as AdvertiserID (key), addresss, etc...
3. "AdsData" table. This is the problem table. It contains AdID (key) and ad content columns (copy, names, driving directions, etc...). In addition to the ad content however, I need each ad to indicate which of the 31 parks it is located in (one or many) and which of the 16 park activities (things like hiking, swimming...i have another table for these) it is to appear in (one or many).
The only solution I have been able to come up with is to make a table ("AdsData") with 55 columns in it. In addition to the ad content data for each ad, there are 16 yes/no columns for selecting one or more activities for the ad to appear in and 31 yes/no columns for selecting one or more parks for the ad to appear in.
This seems excessive because I have a table with all the Parks in it and I have a table with all the Activities in it. Plus I've been told that having so many columns in a table is a bad, bad thing.
But in my limited knowledge of Access, this is the only solution I can come up with.
Is this the only way to do this?
Hi all!
First of all sorry for my terrible English! ;)
I have a very simple question (I think). I have a table with 2 columns in it, filled with city names and their id's. For example:
city - id
rotterdam - rd
amsterdam - ad
new york - ny
london - ld
I have a form with this city-table as a dropdown menu to fill in the control. What i now want is, when I select the city, a different text field named ID must be filled in with the corresponsding city-id.
So, how do I fill in 1 field when a edit the 2nd field?
Thnx in advance!!

I would like to know if there is a maximum nb of columns to use in a table or at least a prefered max nb. For example i have a table "customers" and inside i have "name" "last name" "age" "gender"..and so on is there a limit?
By the way i'm using access 2007
Thx for the explanation in advance.
I was able to use the UNION ALL qry. But, when I have another file (like original2) that does NOT have all the columns listed in the UNION ALL qry, I get a Parameter value box asking for the missing columns when I run the qry.
Example:
original1IDDateGroupChristianJohnnySteve 18/5/2013A1528/5/2013B338/5/2013C2348/5/2013D2358/5/2013E5
original 2IDDateGroupChristianJohnny18/6/2013A212528/6/2013B2338/6/2013C2248/6/2013D22
The UNION ALL qry includes all the possible resources ( includes all the possible column fields Christan, Johnny, and Steve).
When I run the UNION ALL qry with the original2 file, An "Enter Parameter Value" box is displayed with the mssing column name "Steve".
Is there a way to Map the original2 table into a working table with all the columns, or use VBA code to construct the UNION ALL qry to only include the existing columns? My data has variable columns and I'm trying to avoid the parameter popups.
I have created a Table Design
Name

What I want to achieve is while importing it should Concatenate Name and ID number and store in Name ID.
I have searched it well but havent been able to find solution. Any suggestion how to achieve this.
Thanks

In the tutorial listed here: [URL]....
It states after opening the database in Datasheet view :
In the Navigation pane, double-click the table in which you want to create the lookup column - this opens the table in datasheet view.
On the Datasheet tab, in the Fields & Columns group, click the lookup column.
And it show you some icons.
