I have a field1 in table1 & field2 in table2. (field1&2 are numbers)
After designing the tables I linked them with an ID (which is primary key in table1).
When I created a tabular form based on these two tables & tried to enter data, two problems.
1) Error come unable to update / enter & help says its locked while when I check the property of Locked, it is set as 'No' & Enabled 'Yes'. Why I can't input data.
2) The calculation field2/field1*1000 does not appear in a textbox (where it is defined).
I have a table, at the table I'v got these fields:
ID | num1 | num2 | sum
I want that the user put numbers at 'num1' and 'num2' fields and then the 'sum' field will calculate automatically the operator (sum=num1+num2).
I've tried to put any combination at 'Default value' of the sum field (all the fields are numbers , also tried to change the sum field to text...nothing works).
I'm getting a message that 'num1' field is not recognize at the table
(I tried =[num1]+[num2], without the '=', num1.table+num2.table , ...nothing works)
I also tried to do it with SQL command but it dosn't work.
There is any way to do it, is it possible? Or other way to do it at least at Form or at Report ?
This is going to be a simple one for someone, but it is proving to be a pain for me. I have two collums in a table, one that is a value another is a quantity, i have another field that totals the two fields. This works fine and shows the total but it does not store the total into the database, how can i get it to do this.
In the Total field the control source is "=[Cost]*[Quantity]" i have tried to set it too TotalCost=[Cost]*[Quantity] but this gives me errors
I'm using Access 2010 and creating a report that is summing 16 fields but the wizard says I have too many fields selected. I had tried creating the report from scratch adding a sum field in the group footer but the field appears blank.
Below is what I am adding together all from one table. I have another report that will need to sum up 20 fields from a query.
I created a simple calculation query to add the values of three fields:
Program_Cost, Auditorium_Cost and Millage_Fee.
I followed the steps found here: [URL] ....
But it doesn't work. The query pulls the values for the relevant fields but doesn't actually calculate the total. What am I doing wrong? Here's the query's SQL:
SELECT [Event Information].Event_ID, Sum([Program_Cost]+[Millage_Fee]+[Auditorium_Cost]) AS Total_Cost, [Event Information].Program_Cost, [Event Information].Auditorium_Cost, [Event Information].Millage_Fee FROM [Event Information] GROUP BY [Event Information].Event_ID, [Event Information].Program_Cost, [Event Information].Auditorium_Cost, [Event Information].Millage_Fee;
I have six fields in a record that look like Median.University1, Median.University2, Median.University3, Median. University4, Median.University5,Median.Unive rsity6. How can I create a calculated field that counts where values equals 4 in the fields . I have tried Dcount and Count with no success.
Now, I want to know how many 1s are there in Rec3 the answer is obviously 2 but I want a field(F4, for e.g) that calculates F1+F2+F3 showing all their 1s 2s and 3s.
A solution I found was...... F4=IIf([F1],1,0)+IIf([F2],1,0)+IIf([F3],1,0)
But I have over 50 Fields that contain 1s and 2s and I can't count them all by using this formula as it will be tremendously long and access will reject it.
So I need another formula(or function) that will look up for the 1s across multiple fields and show the total count for each record in a new field.
Tried 'look up' function but achieved nothing ....
I have a [DOB] field with birth dates. I have another field [DOBExp] where I want to automatically calculate at date 15 days out, but exclude weekends and holidays. I have a separate table listing the holidays.
Would like a formula to use in my first table for this. Have no clue how to do this.
I shouldn't normally record calculated figures into my table. I'm willing to buck proper procedure here for ease of use for referencing in reports; also, it's just one data point that will be calculated only once and not changed.Anyhow, I have an IIF statement that calculates a total price based on a table of costs. I set this as the default value and it calculated properly - but once I set my text box to have a control source, it no longer calculates my cost.
I was hoping to set it so it calculated the cost and then write that total cost to my table.should mention that my calculated control is in a subform.
Access 2003. I am trying to save a calculated field (Item No) from a form to the accosiated field within the Products table
I have a hidden text box (itemNo) which is bound to the relevant field and a second text box with the following formula
="TV-" & Left(CatShort.column(1),3) & "-" & Format([ProductID],"0000") as its source
What I am trying to do is to provide an item number for each item of stock based on the Category short name (Catshort) and the incremented item ID Number, with a TV prefix.
I am aware that its a bad itea to place calculated field into the table if the calculation is likely to change, however once my calculation is stored it has no need to change.
I have tried the beforeUpdate method within the ItemNo textbox
Private Sub ItemNo_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer) Me!ItemNo = Me!ItemCalc End Sub
but nothing happens (in that the table is not updated)
Any way of putting together an incremental item number based on the selected category with a "TV" prefix....
Basically in my order details table i have the following fields
Product Unit Size
At the moment i have the Product field with a dropdown that gives me all the products from my ProductT. But once i choose the correct product in the unit field it gives me all the possibilities of every product not just the units associated with that product. ie
ProductT Grasshopper Box1000 Adult Grasshopper Box1000 Subadult Worm 10pz Big
When I select the grasshopper product and move on to the unit field i also get "10pz" option but this is not a product available.
How do i set up validation of the fields Unit and size based on another fields data?
I reached the limit of 255 fields in a table. I just need to add one more field so I deleted several fields I no longer needed thinking I would then be able to add one more new field. However, I am still unable to add one more field. How to free up fields that are no longer needed?
I am using calculated field as a data type in access 2010.
They are working fine.
However, I added a new field and now the final calc won't work.
I have Subtotal adding loads of fields together. Works fine.
Then I have a VATunit field which is a double integer, so enter 20 and my next field is VATTotal calculates the SubTotal + the VATunit by doing (Subtotal/100)*VATunit. This calculation is fine and gives me the correct amount.
The next field is a Total field. Which adds Subtotal and the VATTotal together. Howver, the Total is the same as Subtotal. It is not adding the VATTotal to it?
I have two tables of data, each relating to three business branches (branches A, B and C).
Table 1 shows the expenditure of each branch (by fuel, premises and wages).
Table 2 shows a number of units for each branch (mileage, floorspace and sales).
What I would like to do is calculate unit costs, based on the expenditure in Table 1, divided by a relevant unit in Table 2. The catch is that I want to have a third table which allows the user to specify which expenditure (from Table 1) is combined with which unit (from Table 2) to generate the calculated unit costs. I've been able to do this in Excel, and have attached an example. I've also attached an incomplete Access version with the first two tables. Given the complexity of my actual data, I feel this could be better handled in Access than Excel.
I am working on a database which has two tables used as part of a registration and login process.
I would like a couple of fields from table one to automatically update in table two, once the fields in table one are populated without using an 'on click' event.
The reason I would prefer not to use an onclick is because the completion of the form used to generate the users table does not require any buttons for the data to save.
i would like to sum all the column fields in a tables column where an id is the same as the id in that table. I know you can use the SUM function in the select statement of your query.
But how can i set this sum result into a variable, so i can use it for calculation further on in the program?
I'm using Access 2010. I need to calculate a score based on values selected in a table by looking up corresponding values in other tables. I have a "Project" form to create new entries into the Project table (see Table 1). When I create a new project record, I will select values for the Payback and Need fields by selecting options from a list. The Payback list is pointed at Table 2 and the Need list is pointed at Table 3. In the below example, I created the "ABC" project and selected "1 year" for the Payback field and "Repair" for the Need field. Pretty simple.
Now that I have the "ABC" project loaded to my Project table, I'd like to create a report that will show a "score" for this project. The score should be calculated as follows: Payback Impact + Need Impact. In this example, the score should be 30 (Payback Impact of 20 + Need Impact of 10).
I have 2 tables tblworkdone and tbltests, both have a date field and are both subforms in a tabbed form on the main form. When I enter a date into the tbltests subform I would like the date to automatically be entered into the tblworkdone date field and create a new record so that when I move to the tblworkdone subform with the date already there.
I'm creating a database which would automatically assign a unique workorder number in the "WorkorderNumber" field of the "Workorder" table. Note: this will not be the Primary number for the work order.The WorkorderNumber will be developed by combining fields from the "System" table. Fields used to create the WorkorderNumber from the "System" table are:
1) Location [currently in the field is "MAX"] 2) CalendarYear [currently in the field is "2014"] 3) NextWorkorderNumber [currently in the field is "1"]
I need the following to happen to the "WorkorderNumber" field of the "Workorder" table:
a. I need the field to read as followed: Max-2014-00001 b. I need the number 00001 to autonumber to 00002 on the next entry of a new request. [MAX-2014-00002]. c. I need to be able to control how the "WorkorderNumber" field populates by changing the "CalendarYear" and "NextWorkorderNumber" fields within the "System" table without messing up prior workorder numbers already populated.
I have two tables called Hardware and Desk. They both have two fields called ChangeID and Priority.
What I would like to do is set it so that if we change the Priority in a record existing/created in 'Hardware', the Priority of the related record in 'Desk', also changes.
I have a database with various tables, customers, jobs_table, black_book. I am wanting to have a field that looks up a latest date.
Both the [jobs_table] and [black_book] have a date field, there can be multiple entries per customer in both fields. What I want to do is have 2 fields in the [customer] table that looks up the customer name in [jobs_table] and [black_book] and brings back the latest date.
