I have built a table with a field name of Birth date and have applied an input mask to have the data shown as: ##/##/##. Now, I would like to have another field labeled age. Is there a formula that I can create to have access calculate this in my table? I have tried "=mydate()-"Date Of Birth"" in the validation rule under the properties of the Age field; however, I keep getting an error. Any suggestions?
View RepliesHi there,
I'm looking for a formula kind of thing to find the distance from a point by using the longitude and lattitude information.
For Eg, by using the center point of the zip code of a city, i want to retreive the addresses that are in my database that are located around 5 miles and 10 miles or 50 miles or so.
Could anyone tell me how to figure out the formula or how should the query look like??
Thanks for your time!

I need a formula to calculate date cycles.
Each person have an employment date on which a 3 year cycle is based.
So at the end of their 3 years the cycle needs to update to the next 3 year cycle.
For example
Person Employment date Cycle Start
1 01 Jan 2015 01 Jan 2015
2 01 Jan 2006 01 Jan 2012
In the case of Person 2 above the cycle would have started at 2006 - 2009 and then moved to 2009 - 2012 and then 2012 - 2015 and now 2015 - 2018
I have the following formula at the moment but need to make 100% I'm not missing something.
Also - would it be fine to run the update query each time for all persons or must it be only for the ones where the current date does not fall within the current 3 year cycle?
CycleStart = DateAdd("yyyy",Int(DateDiff("d",[EmpDate],Date())/365/3)*3,[EmpDate])
Would value your input on another way to do this as well.
Hi All:running Access 2000.I have a qry with a formula field that performs some calculation (Extension: CCur(([OnHand]*[Price])/[UnitsPer]))and it works fine. How can I update the actual table with the result of the calculation for every record? The problem I have is that there's some null values in the results therefore when I try to get totals on that field, it errors out saying "invalid null use"thanks

Hello,
I have split a database useing the database spliter wizard. But I still have network speed problems. What I am wondering is if anyone knows if useing an ODBC connection between the front and back ends is more efficient than file sharing across the network?
Thanks for any information on this

Thanks if anyone can offer a suggestion, I cannot find a similar problem described on the forum.
I have a form which runs at startup maximised. Pop-up and Modal are set to 'NO', Auto Resize and Center are also set to 'NO', Border style has been set to various settings, and Moveable has also been tried at 'YES' and 'NO'.
A command button on this form opens another form with the same settings which I want to take the original form's 'place' in the application window.
This all works fine, just that when I close the second window (using DoCmd.Close), the original window is then no longer maximised underneath it. I want to make sure certain windows are maximised at all times.
I know I could hack this with a DoCmd.Maximise somewhere, (or by switiching to full Pop-up/Modal mode and hiding the Application window) but the results of these are all a bit of a hack.
Can anyone shed light on the mysteries of Access's default form maximisation behaviour?
Or does anyone do what I have described successfully?
Hi,
i was working with a database and accidently deleted the first row, i couldnt get the automatic number to number another row 1, so i took out this table and created another one. however even though my new record is in order, when i pull this through to the website it's coming in the order 1,3,4,5,6,2... and the coding for the page worked fine with the db beforehand!!! so now i'm a bit lost
if anyone has any ideas, they'd be appreciated!!!
Thanks in advance!!!

I have an Inventory DB Table called [EngData] that has a subform table called [Inventory]. I have in the subform a calculated text box that Sums three columns, StockQtyMade, StockQtySold and StockQtyShrink. This works perfectly.
On the Main form I have a calculated text box that references the subform calculated field. This also displays correct info.
On another Form I wanted other users to see the total stock on hand by using a calculated field called PullTotalQty. This is set by using DSum(...). The only problem is that the DSum(...) keeps giving totals that are not accurate. Sometimes the quantity is a few pieces less then the correct amount and in other cases the qty is many times what it should be.
Whatever the amount in error it is consistent each time a particular record is displayed. I have tried many things to get this to work but nothing has fixed the issue. I have also tried changing the query and nothing works. Changing the query and using the [Inventory] table in the DSum domain gives a different wrong quantity.
Here is the code: I reduced the code down to one column to be summed (StockQtyMade) just to see if I could get that working first. I will add the other two columns later. for testing purposes I am only looking at the StockQtyMade amounts.
Me.PullTotalQty.Value = DSum("[tblInventory subform].[Form].[StockQtyMade]", "[SumStockQuery]", "[tblInventory subform].[Form].[PartID]= " & Me.[ID])
Here is the SumStockQuery SQL:
SELECT Inventory.TransactionID, Inventory.PartID, Inventory.PrintNo, Inventory.StockRev, Inventory.StockQtySold, Inventory.StockQtyMade, Inventory.StockQtyShrink, Inventory.StockQtyXIncomplete, Inventory.StockLoc, Inventory.TransactionDescription
FROM Inventory
WHERE (((Inventory.TransactionDescription)<>"xNextOP"))
ORDER BY Inventory.TransactionID DESC;
Why the totals are incorrect??
hi i have a button that loads a report. If i then close the report the form, which is set with no border/no max/min/close/non movable and opens maximised, places itself off centre. I want it to stay maximised full screen. The only work around i currently have is when the use moves the mouse over the form it maximises itself. Will this then be calling this function everytime the mouse moves(cant be very efficient). is there a better way to maximise the form Immediately after closing the report.

I currently have a button with a checkbox on top (z-axis wise). This works exactly like I want, except that whenever the button is clicked or focused, it gets brought to the top and hides the checkbox. The only idea I've been able to come up with is maybe making the button completely transparent, with an image of a button behind it.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have created 2 tables:
StaffID
StaffTrainingID
Table 1 (StaffID) - contains all personal details in the form of forename + surname + position + email + contact numbers ect. Each field/person has an autonumber.
Table 2 (StaffTrainingID) - contains all mandatory training/lectures (18 fields in total). I don't wish to list each staff member again in table 2 so have put a StaffID field in (data type is number).
However, when I try to type in the StaffID number in that field so I can link that person to the relevant training he/she has taken, Access won't allow it.
I have created a multiple field search screen. The script is attached.
I would like to add a MSG Box "No records found" when the user types in information in any field where no records are available.
Just cannot get this working.
i have a list of check boxes which state whether a ticket has been sold or not. what formula can i use to find the percentage of tickets that have been sold (by counting the number of checked boxes). also how can i implement that onto a report to display it next to a pie chart of the information. if it cannot be put on a report how can i put it onto a form?
thanks in advance

Hi
I am trying to create a formula that will update a field in my table - I have created an update query and want to update the field GPA.
I have tried using the iif formula without success. Here is what I want to calculate.
I have two fields one is Score the other is Baseline. The formula needs to place the Score of 4.0, 3.5, 3.0, 2.5, 2.0, or 1.5 in the GPA field given the following.
If the difference between the field score and baseline is .00 then the score 4.0 goes in the GPA field, if the difference between the field score and baseline is .05 then the score is 3.5 in the GPA field, if the difference between the fields score and baseline is 1.0 then the GPA is 3.0....
If both fields are equal then score is 4.0
.05 score is 3.5
1.0 score is 3.0
1.5 score is 2.5
2.0 score is 2.0
2.5 score is 1.5
Can anyone help me with this formula.
I have a customers table, products table, and a transaction table that brings them together fields in tblTransaction:

I want to create a query so that you can type a name of a customer in, and it will bring up all the items they have bought, and will add up all the prices (from tblTitle) and show it at the bottom but im not sure how to get this calculated field into the query? Whats the sum formula that you put into a query?
I have a form that people fill in where they can choose from 4 boxes (and they can tick as many as they want - it is a yes/no box)
I have tried to write a formula for a queryto show where none of the boxes have been ticked.....this doesn't work:
=(IIf(IsNull([Q3(i)]) And iif(IsNull([Q3(ii)]) And iif (IsNull([Q3(iii)]) And iif(IsNull([Q3(iv)]),"1","0"))

Because I am stupid at math, can some please help me out with the formula to get the percent of something that has changed.

I need a formula that will give me the count of the number of files I scored 3.0, 2.5,2.0,1.5, and 1.0. These scores are in one field called Claim Quality Index.
What I am trying to do in a query is to count the number of files I scored a 3.0 and in the next column of the query give me the count of the number of files I scored a 2.5 - same for score 2.0, 1.5, and 1.0.
I have chosen the count in the query but I cannot get the criteria to only give me the above. I believe I need to use the expression and name the field CQI3: ????(formula that I cannot get right.
Can anyone help - I have tried various ver. of the IIf formula but to no avail.
I have the following idea in my mind. The only problem is that I have no clue how to make this work.
