Can't Edit Query Which Has Calculated Fields
Jan 7, 2008
Hi!
I have done a query which has calculated fields, but I can't edit the stored fields directly from the query, instead I have to go to the table so as to edit it. Is this the way it works or is something wrong?
SELECT [INSTRUCCIONES DE EMBARQUE].N_OP, [INSTRUCCIONES DE EMBARQUE].[N° FAC EXP], [INSTRUCCIONES DE EMBARQUE].[FECHA CUMP], [INSTRUCCIONES DE EMBARQUE].[DERECHO PGC], [INSTRUCCIONES DE EMBARQUE].[VTO DER EXP], [INSTRUCCIONES DE EMBARQUE].[IMPORTE REINTEGRO], [DETALLE CONTENEDOR].CANTIDAD, [DETALLE CONTENEDOR].[VALOR FOB], [INSTRUCCIONES DE EMBARQUE].[TIPO DE CAMBIO], [TIPO DE CAMBIO]*[VALOR FOB] AS [PRECIO VTA (ARS)], [PRECIO VTA (ARS)]*[CANTIDAD] AS [TOTAL(ARS)], [TOTAL(ARS)]/[TIPO DE CAMBIO] AS [TOTAL(USD)]
FROM [INSTRUCCIONES DE EMBARQUE], [DETALLE CONTENEDOR];

I have 2 tables (tblItemsQB and tblItemInfo) that have a 1 to 1 relationship linked by the "PartNumber" field. The tblItemsQB table contains a description field and 2 price fields (this table is downloaded from Quickbooks). The tblItemInfo table contains additional fields with information on the part that isn't contained in Quickbooks, like OrderType, Phase, SubSystem.
I import the items from QB into tblItemsQB and then do an outer join with tblItemInfo to link all the information for the part. If I have created a new part in Quickbooks, when I do the outer join (I include all records from tblItemsQB) I can see the new part but since the part number doesn't exist yet in tblItemInfo, I can't add the information to the fields in that table.
What is the easiest way to create the new PartNumbers (those that exist in tblItemsQb but not in tblItemInfo) in the tblItemInfo table so I can add the other information to it?
thanks

Table A has a field for Full Name (Bob Jones)
Table B has two separate fields for first and last (Bob and Jones). Table B's contents are actually based on an XML import so I can not just change the table structure.
I want to join the content from these two tables together based on full name.
So first I created a query on table B with a new field created with the expression =[First] & " " & [Last].
I then created a query with table A and query B where I joined the two full-name columns together.
This works perfectly. However, I can't edit the values in this query and I believe from the help files that it's because there's a calculated column in one of the tables.
Is there a way to get around this?
I thought maybe inside my ImportXML VB function once I imported the XML data I could populate an empty column with First + Last but I've read about 50 articles and they're all over my head and I can't figure out how to just concatenate the two columns together into one using VB. It seems if I did this I would avoid having to use a calculated column in a query and this would fix my problems.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much!

I have a query where I group by EmpID, so duplicates do not show up. In this query I have two fields with no data. These fields are to be filled in after the query is run in a form. However, these fields are not editable due to the group by feature. I tried two unbound fields, which does allow me to type, but doesn't save the changes once I click out of the field. The field then reverts back to blank.

Is it possible to add/edit a record from a DAO querydef that has a calculated field in.
Code:
Set qdf = db.QueryDefs("qryOutput_" & strDept)
qdf.Parameters("Enter Date") = dDate
Set rs = qdf.OpenRecordset()
Using the rs.Edit or rs.AddNew worked fine until I put a calculated field in the query.
The calculated field is just a total of some fields in the table.
I thought this was something to do with dbOpenDynaset but it just keeps having the same error
Cannot update. Database or object is read-only.

I have been given the unenviable task of processing data from a 700,000 line database. As an seasoned Excel user but absolute Access beginner, I've managed to handle some of the simpler data requests but the latest request has me somewhat stumped. The problem is as follows:
The fields are:
[Loan]
[Valuation]
[Type]
I have created a query that calculates two fields based on this data:
i) [LTV] = [Loan]/[Valuation]. The code I have used for this is:
SELECT IIf([Valuation]=(0),Null,[Loan]/[Valuation]) AS [LTV]
ii) A percentile reference [P Range] calculated using the following code:
IIf([LTV]>0 And [LTV]<0.1,"P0",Null) & IIf([LTV]>0.1 And [LTV]<0.2,"P10",Null) & IIf([LTV]>0.2 And [LTV]<0.3,"P20",Null) & IIf([LTV]>0.3 And [LTV]<0.4,"P30",Null) & IIf([LTV]>0.4 And [LTV]<0.5,"P40",Null) & IIf([LTV]>0.5 And [LTV]<0.6,"P50",Null) & IIf([LTV]>0.6 And [LTV]<0.7,"P60",Null) & IIf([LTV]>0.7 And [LTV]<0.8,"P70",Null) & IIf([LTV]>0.8 And [LTV]<0.9,"P80",Null) & IIf([LTV]>0.9,"P90",Null) AS [P Range]
FROM [BASE TABLE]
I suspect this code is somewhat clumsy but it is the best I have managed so far!
My difficulty is creating an output in the query
First the outputs need to be grouped by [Type] and by [P Range]. Then I need the following other outputs
Count[P Range]
Sum[Loan]
Sum[LTV] in each subgroup
I tried adding a Group By to the query in the design view, but I get an error every time. How do I output this data?
I have tried to read up on this but haven't managed to create a successful query!
I've attached a simplified version of the database as an example and to show where I've got to with this query
Please help!
Thanks
Oli

Hi.
I have a form with 3 fields that are required, the other fields within the form are not.
Is it possible to make it so the non-required fields are only selectable/editable once the required fields are filled in? And if they are selected, a message appears saying "please edit required field first" or something like that?
Thanks for reading
Frank.

I have recently gotten a handle on ASP and found it to be a very powerful tool.
I am wondering if there is a way to design a page where I can list my database tables, and by using a command, I can use asp to do the following.
1. Add or delete table
2. Add, delete, or update fields within the tables
for instance: rename a field 'PersonName' to 'MyName' without change the original values in the field 'PersonName'
I have searched all over the net and could not find information on this subject.
Thanks in advance.

I have a user that is unable to edit records, He can click in the fields but he could not delete or enter data in the fields. He has the ability to edit records but its fields are locked. I created a split database and created a secure front which I distributed it to multiple uses. The other users front end is working fine, expect for the one.

I would like to store equations on certain fields and display and edit them in a form.
I can't find a Microsoft Equation Editor control in the list of ActiveX controls. Is it stored as a .ocx file? How is it named?
In case Equation Editor can't be used within Access, is there another third party addin that provides a control with that functionality? It would be great if there were an application that accepted markup code like LaTeX as input so it were easier to implement a code to manipulate equations.

Hi,
I have read that it's not recommended to put calculated fields on a table and they should instead be calculated using a query.
How about if I need to store that calculated value in a table (e.g. field1 + field2 = value in field3)
How can I do that please?
Thanks,
B

I know how to write in : Money Owed: [price per hour]*[number of hours]. but i want to have only one line for each customer when i run the query. How do i combine??

I have a detail form, which has controls populated from a query.
For example,
Name Number
xxxx xxxx
This can be any length depending upon the amount of database records, so there might be 5 names, or 4 names, etc.
I then need to sum these in the footer. Is the possible?
I just seem to get #Error displayed when doing SUM([ControlBoxName])

I have a calculated text box on a form:-
=[AnnualSavings]/[SKUAnnualSpendInPounds]*100
But, if both the Annual Savings and SKUAnnualSpendInPounds text boxes have a value of 0 the result of the calulation comes out as #Num!. I assume this is the error because I am doing 0 divided by 0.
Does anyone know if this is the reason for my error and if so is there anyway of changing the #Num! back into a 0 so that I can submit it to my tables.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

I developed a query that calulates when a contract is reviewed i.e 5 weeks and 9 weeks after the commencement date. These are called CDE1 and CDE2. This works well and the CDE1 and CDE2 dates are displayed ok.
The query above is:
SELECT Contract.ContractNo, Contract.APSNo, Contract.Firstname, Contract.Surname, Contract.AgencyDesc, Contract.FacilityName, Contract.Designation, Contract.WeeklyHrs, Contract.PositionNo, Contract.ComDate, Contract.EndDate, IIf(DateAdd("ww",5,[comdate])<[enddate],DateAdd("ww",5,[comdate])) AS 1stCDE, IIf(DateAdd("ww",9,[comdate])<[enddate],DateAdd("ww",9,[comdate])) AS 2ndCDE
FROM Contract;
The problem is that I now want to access contracts under these CDE dates between two dates that is user defined (startdate) and (enddate).
As the above are calculated fields, how can I develop a new query based on the above as CDE1 and CDE2 are already calculated fields?

New to Access and learning the hard way. Im sure this is an easy one, but sure would appreciate the help. I am trying to sum a group of cells and display the total, which i have done. But I also want to store this total in my database. So my question is, how do i move my calculated total to my field that has the "record source" bound back to my field in the database? Hope that makes sense. Thanks in advance.

I have an Access 97 database with a form and a subform for invoice and invoice details. When I change the qty or price in the subform I have a calculated field on the main form that updates. I also have a button that when clicked brings up the payment screen with the totals from the previous screen. The problem lies when I change the qty or price and click the button right away, the next form pops up but does not take the new totals, it grabs the old ones. The calculated fields do not refresh fast enough. I have tried requery, refresh, and even a loop to make it wait before opening the payment form, but nothing seems to work. I'm at a loss. Any ideas would be appreciated
Thanks

Now I can create a Query that adds, subtracts a specific column, but im having a hard time trying to get the information into a form since it don't seem to allow me to pick the query field which is calculated as a datasource. Can someone tell me how to make a calculated query column appear on a form as a field? Such if I type in monday in the regular table, the form will add a few days to the next available game? I have the information/code already in a query that displays the query right in a new table using the Expr method but I can't get the form to just simply display the field. Someone please help!
I see a few people asked close to the same question but nobody never answered so I am thinking it is impossible

I keep getting caught up in the same point over and over again. I need to save a calculated field's calculation to a table field. The problem is how do I do this? I already know about the rules but I need to do this and store that specific information. Can someone post a sample code? The problem is the code and codes I been using dont' seem to work any more. I was putting
fieldname = textbox2.txt
in the form before update box. The problem with that is it would give me an error if the data source the calculation pulls from is not in the table/form.

I know that it is bad form to store a calculated field in a table - normalization and all that - but I can see no other way around a need that I have.
I'm trying to make a database to store injury time for employees. If an employee is injured, he can do light work for a certain amount of time, but this light work need not be contiguous. But, the total time on light work must be known so as to see when it is used up.
For example:
Bob is injured on 4/1/06 and goes on light work on 4/2/06 until 4/5/06 (4 days). Bob is then taken off light work until 4/10/06 when he reinjures the same injury. This does not count as a new injury, because it is an aggravation of the old one. So, Bob goes back on light work on 4/10/06 until 4/15/06 (6 days).
So, I need to store Bob's total time on light work for this injury (10 days) so that I can keep a running total to check against the maximum for a single injury. All I can think of is to store the sum of days on light work as a field in Bob's injury record, but that means storing a calculated field in a table.
Am I missing an easy way to do this, or is there a method to do what I want that I am just not aware of?
Thanx for any help!

Hello All,
Probably trying to do the impossible.
Normally I would never (that’s a long time) have the results of a calculated field in a table, but I’m stumped.
Table1
TestID: Autonumber
Quantity: Number
Selected: Yes/No
Table2
SumID: Autonumber
TestID: Number, Foreign Key
Quantity Delivered: Number
Query1-Sum Query
Table2
TestID: Group
Quantity Delivered: Sum
Query2- Select Query
Record Sets
Query1 Table1
TestID-----------------------------------TestID
Quantity Deliverd Quantity
Select
Fields in Query2
TestID from Table1
Select from Table 1
Run Query
Can’t update “Select” field
So I’m thinking that I should create a 3rd query to update the summed Quantity Delivered into a new field in table 1. Which would in effect create a stored calculated field.

I need some help. My brain just can't grasp how to do this.
I have an Access DB. I sell vinyl records. I have an order form. When a customer orders a record, each vinyl record has a unique ID#. No two vinyl records are alike. I have four tables: Customers, Orders, Inventory, & Order Details. I have an "Order Form" form where I input all the info. It's an all-in-one form where you can view and data entry in one screen. The form has two subforms in it.
Here's the problem:
If a customer orders more than one item (i.e. a vinyl record), each Inventory_ID (representing one vinyl record) is associated with one Order_ID which is, in turn, related to one Customer_ID. If I have one Order_ID that has multiple Inventory_IDs (i.e. has ordered two or more vinyl records) that belongs to one customer, how can I calculate that total cost?
Currently, I have a calculated field within my all-in-one form that calculates only the price of the Inventory_ID that one currently sees on the subform. The Inventory_ID item has a set price, for instance $5.00. If I scroll through the ordered Inventory_IDs, the calculated field will only display the price of the product that you currently see. It's not really calculating anything, I guess. It's just bound to that field, but I need to sum up all the price fields for all the Inventory_IDs that are associated with one Order_ID & Customer_ID whether it's a query or calculated field...I just need it done so that it'll display on this form.
Any help would be much appreciated. I can show you whatever you need to see. Thanks in advance.

Could someone tell me what Event I need to put this code in to calculate my fields when the form first opens?
I have this code on both the After Update and On Change events which is working fine, but, when I first open the form, those calculated fields are blank and I have to perform a change or update before the calculations will appear each time.
If Not IsNull(Me.fcstloc) Then
Me.prodvolume = DSum("[volume]", "qryMonthlyEngineVolumes", "[product] = '" & Forms!Projects!product & "'" & " And [MonthID] Between " & Forms!Projects.MonthID.Column(0) & " And 12")
ElseIf Not IsNull(Me.prodvolume) Then
Me.prodvolume = DLookup("[2004volume]", "tblProjectDetails", "[projectid] = " & Forms!Projects!projectid & "")
End If
Thanks!

I have an Invoice Form with a Payments Subform. Here are the details:
frmInvoice
InvoiceID
Customer
ShipmentID
QtyShipped
UnitPrice
frmPaymentsSubform
PaymentID
InvoiceID
CheckNum
DateReceived
Amount
An invoice can be paid in multiple payments. (One-to-Many Relationship).
I have a calculated field that takes QtyShipped * UnitPrice, which gives me my total due. That works correctly. However, I want to have another calculated field that sums all of the payments (the Amount field). Then I want another field that takes the difference between the total due and the sum of all the payments, and gives me a Remaining Due calculated field.
Right now, my TotalPaid and TotalRemaining fields are marked with '#Error'. Is that because TotalPaid is a running sum? Every day I can go in and add a payment to an invoice, so the number would be constantly changing until it was paid in full.
Any suggestions would be great!
