How To Make Negative And Positive Values Affect Queries Differently
Jul 10, 2014I have created an Access 2010 Database for tracking inventory. As parts move to each location, quantities automatically subtract from the previous location. I now realized that some parts are destroyed.
The problem is the if I simply enter a negative value to indicated that a part was destroyed at one location, it appears as a positive value in the previous location. Is there a way to make negative values not affect a specific query?

Separating Positive And Negative Numbers
Jan 24, 2008I have a field on my report that contains positive and negative numbers. I'm trying to find a way to Sum the column twice for two different fields (one for positive sum and the other negative) To make this easy let me give a small example with explanation of the issue I am having. 14 rows of data containing positive and negative numbers in a field called [Rooms]:
1) -1
2) 1
3) 1
4) 1
5) 1
6) 1
7) 1
8) 1
9) 1
10) 5
11) 1
12) -5
13) 1
14) 1
The positive numbers represent confirmations, the negative numbers represent cancellations. I need 2 fields to separate these. The first field's control source is Sum([Rooms]). No problem there. Access does the math and comes up with "8" confirmations which is correct. Then in the second (Cancellation field) I try something like Sum([Rooms]<0) to get the negative numbers which should add up to -7 (-1+-1+-5), but instead I get -3 because it's not summing the values, it's really returning the number of rows that has a negative number. Is there any way this can be done at the ControlSource Property of a report field? Or if I could do a "Where" clause in a ControlSource I could acheive it another way, but I don't that is possible. Is this just something I'm missing with the way I'm stucturing the ControlSource or is it not possible. Or alternatively, is there a way to separate it in the query and have a separate query field for positive and negative going into the report. I can do one or the other in the query but I can't seem to do both without showing values of each type in both query fields.
Thanks for your help!

View 8 Replies View RelatedQueries :: Convert String To Positive / Negative Number
Feb 24, 2015I have an expression that converts a string to positive/negative number. It seems to be working fine, however, it doesn't convert "00000000001}" to -10. It shows as 10.
This is the formula that I am using in my query:
PJUNAccrual: IIf(Right([PJ_ACCRUAL_ADJ_X],1) Between "J" And "S",-1,1)*(Val([PJ_ACCRUAL_ADJ_X])/IIf(IsNumeric([PJ_ACCRUAL_ADJ_X]),100,10)+(IIf(Right([PJ_ACCRUAL_ADJ_X],1) Between "A" And "I",(Asc(Right([PJ_ACCRUAL_ADJ_X],1))-64)/100,0))+(IIf(Right([PJ_ACCRUAL_ADJ_X],1) Between "J" And "S",(Asc(Right([PJ_ACCRUAL_ADJ_X],1))-73)/100,0)))*100

what I then would do is copy that to a purchase order but remove the negative sign can this can the formula be changed in anyway to give the positive number .
Forms :: Textbox With Exclamation Mark If Value Is Negative Or Actual Number If Positive
Nov 5, 2014Is it possible to format a textbox such that a negative value doesn't show numerically but in some other form (like a cross or exclamation mark from the Wingdings font, for example?)
I have a couple of textboxes which take their values from a function. The function is designed to return a long integer value which should always be greater than or equal to zero (the function counts the number of outstanding e-mails in a given Outlook folder, hence it should always be zero or higher)
However, as part of my error handling, if the function can't connect to the Outlook folder for whatever reason (for example, if the user does not have the appropriate permissions, or they do not have it mapped etc.), then it returns -1 (so I have some sort of value to identify a fail)
So currently, if such an error occurs, my textbox(es) will show -1 (and I can use conditional formatting to highlight this)
But it would be nice if it showed an "X" or "!" instead, and only showed the numerical value for 0 or positive. Is this possible?

Jan 30, 2007Hi.. I am a beginner using access and there is probably an easy solution for this which i dont know about!
I have made a query where i calculate the tax deductions for a payroll system. my problem is that different workers are to be taxed differently given maritial status and number of kids as well as net income.
I have managed to calculate everything with the kids and wifes but now i need to sort the table after how much they earn to deduct taxes. I have a "first stage NetPay field" now, where i can see the Gross pay minus allowances for wifes and kids.
Now, if that value(first stage netpay) is under 8840 no more deductions are to occur. If the value is between 8840 and 10000 i have to deduct 15% of the excess above 8840
If the value is between 10000 and 20000 i have to deduct a further 174+ 25% of excess over 10000
If the value is above 20000 i have to deduct 2674+ 31% of excess over 20000
So far what i have done is make a new coloumn, where i take "first stage netpay field" and subtract 8840. If the value is negative i thought i could show only the positive values by enterin >0 in the criteria field for the query, this however will make no posts show up..
(I tried entering Abs() in the Field coloumn where i made the expression, and this worked. )
So my question is: is there a function like Abs() i could use that would convert negative values into 0?
Or do any of you guys have a better idea of how to solve this?
Hope someone can help me...

Comparing Values
Oct 28, 2007i want to know if it is possible to compare values (a string) stored in a field with a field of another table?
for example, i have a table named Courses, it has field Course ID...and Course Requirements.
the field Course requirements can accept only 3 value: A,B and C.
i have used a combo for this.
then, i have Student qualifications table. i have also designed a form to input student qualifications.
my problem is that i have to compare qual. of students with the req of the course, to allocate them a specific course. if both values meet, the db automatically allocates the course to the student.
Comparing Values In A Query
Dec 7, 2007Okay I have a query that pulls from a table. It's pretty simple - nothing big.The query will be used to correct information in some sales tax data.I have 3 colums with sales tax info, and they should all be the same. I want to compare each column to show only those which don't match each other.NetTax, TotalTax, and TaxB are the fields.In the query, for the criteria of NetTax, I put in:<> [TotalTax]When I run the query, I get results, but they are all equal.EG:4.35 4.35 4.35I don't want them to show, and not sure if that's the right way to go about it or what.If I run without that criteria, I get 21,600 results.With that in the criteria, I get 304 results. So it is working somewhat...but for whatever reason some don't seem to be seen as being equal? I don't get it. Data type is number and they are formatted the same way.

Dec 17, 2007Hi...
I will try to keep this succinct.
I have a query that totals a column in a sub-form. The query also gets a sum from the main form for the same record. Is it possible to have a message/colour change/warning if the total of the column in the sub-form exceeds the other number in the query? I would need this comparison to take place within this query, rather than creating a new one.
Thanks!

Comparing Values From Table1 And Table2
Sep 10, 2006Hello everyone! I've found much use of this forum recently as I am working on a database concerning my work.
I'm not a newbie working with access but this problem seems confusing at the beginning.
I've got 2 tables
1) Information about produced details. Article, Mass etc.
2) Mass constants
Mass min. Mass max. Constant
What I need, is to build a query that compares the mass of the detail with the range mass min. and mass max. and shows the mass constant that the detail belongs to.
Has anyone tried to solve this kind of issue before?

Comparing 2 Tables To Find Duplicate Values
May 9, 2006Hey all
Im rather new to access but have to use it at work. Ive been asked to see if there is a way to delete duplicate records from a table.
Now, I have 2 tables. The 1st table (tbl_list) contains records of various customer details. This list is old.
The second table (tbl_new_list) contains new customer details.
We have found that we have the same customer details in tbl_new_list that are in the old table.
Im looking for a way to compare these 2 tables so that the values in tbl_list are not in tbl_new_list.
I have tried numerous methods using append queries but nothing seems to work.
Thanks in advance people
P.S the data will be compared through a telephone number.
Queries :: Comparing Two Values From Rows In Same Field
Jul 10, 2013I have a table [VL] with four fields, [vl_id], [product], [vl_date], [valeur_liquidative].
The idea of the table is that you can input and update the value of each product on a given day.
I need to find the difference in days between successive dates (vl_date) each time that a product value (valeur_liquidative) is updated. Values aren't updated everyday as it is not updated during the weekends. I have had a go at this but have struggled..
A picture of what the table looks like is attached for reference.

Random Autonumber Force Positive Only
Apr 1, 2007I don't know if it's possible, but is there any way of forcing the random autonumber generator in tables to be a positive number only?
The autonumber as I've searched on the forum can be a positive or negative number and I'd like to use the random autonumber feature as a primary key for account numbers for my database, but not using the negative numbers as they will look like odd account numbers with the leading negative.
I could possibly remove the leading negative, but there's then the chance that you'll have duplicates.
Thank you!
