I need to have a textbox formatted to have 2 decimals. If I take general number and set the decimal to 2 it will display numbers like 89.1. I would need it to be 89.10. I would like not to use the currency format as it puts the $ symbol in the textbox as well. So basically same formatting as currency (because it's a currency I am working with) but without the symbol.
View RepliesI need to have the pound sterling symbol ( £ ) in a field, but only have two options 1- Dollars ( $ ) and 2 - Euros .
I have done a search but cant seem to find out.
How can I get pounds or change one of the others.
I have several reports where the currency was always reported in dollars so for the fields in question I had a format of $#,###.00 which printed the dollar sign in front of the amount.
As the system has now become more sophisticated I need to print out a currency symbol depending upon the client. I have a currency table that links into the client so my query 'behind' the report holds the right symbol but how do I get it ito the report. I Know I can define a second field that will hold the symbol but to me this is a clumsy way of doing it. Is there anyway I can put the symbol in the control source for the data or into the format of the field or some other way?
Hi all!
I have an unbound text box (txtInstAmt) that needs to be displayed from a table (tblLoan.fldInstAmt). Both the fields in the table as well as the text box have been set to Currency.
However, my code doesn't seem to work.
I get an error msg saying that the value isn't valid for the field when I set the decimal places to 2 in both the table and the form. When the decimal places are set to Auto, I get a Data Type Mismatch.
Can someone please tell me what's wrong with this code?
Code:Private Sub cboLoanSN_AfterUpdate()Dim DAOdb As DatabaseDim DAOrs As DAO.RecordsetSet DAOdb = CurrentDb()Set DAOrs = DAOdb.OpenRecordset("Select * from tblLoan where fldLoanSN='" & Me.cboLoanSN & "'")With DAOrsMe.txtInstAmt = .Fields("fldInstAmt")End WithMe.cboDateRepay.RequeryEnd Sub
Thanks a lot!
Hi everyone,
My query concerns Currency in that i have declared some variables as Currency but when i try to output them they appear only as if they are formatted as numbers i.e. £0.50 as a currency variable when displayed in a MSgbox displays as 0.5 not a big problem you might think but i am trying to output these numbers to a retail printer as part of an Epos application. i can add a £ sign to the beginnning but adding missing zero's to the end is proving a little more tricky. I have cheked that the international settings on the PC are set to English, £, 2 decimal places ETC
Thanx
I have a parent form and a sub-form. On the parent form is a date field [JOINED] and on the sub-form there is a date field [DATE PAID] and a field [BQ JOINING FEE] with a default format of currency.
I created a macro to set the value of [BQ JOINING FEE] to 0 if ([DATE PAID]>[JOINED]+60). It sets the value to 0 as required but I am unable to get it to format the result as currency.
Hi All,
This is my first post so can I just say how great and useful this forum has been for me since I joined! I have found pretty much everything I have wanted without having to ask, so thank you everyone!
I am only beginning with Access at the moment, as I try to implement some improvements to the way my company works!
I have one really simple, but annoying issue at the moment and I cannot find the answer anywhere!
I have a currency filed in my table. I want to format it in USD, but USD is not available in the format options, just £ and €. I cannot see where the hell I get the USD $ format from?
I know this is probably well simple and I am being a plum!
I have a calculated field in a query that generates a result that i need to display in forms/reports with the $ sign but zero decimal places (ie; rounded to the nearest $ value, $5).
If i use the sql format currency function (format (n, "currency",0) it always displays the $ sign but with two decimal places...
In the form/report text box property i set the format to currency, with the decimal places set to 0, but it still displays two decimal places (this property setting seems to make no difference other than displaying the $ sign). Is there something i am missing regarding the way access formatting works?
I have a main report with 5 sub reports. There is a detail page for each company and a totals page at the end. The record source for each sub report is a Union query (combines the detailed information with the total information.
One of the sub reports displays currency amounts. The detailed reports display the currency correctly: $26,001 (no cents). The totals sub report does not display the currency formatting: 468934
When I run just the totals query the amounts display correctly ($468,934) by using the CCUR(TotalAmount) variable type conversion. The VarType for the amount field in the totals query is 5 (double precision).
When I combine the detail query and totals query into a Union query the detail amounts display correctly but the total amount is missing the formatting.
Here is the union query.
SELECT TblCompany.TblCompanykey, FormatCurrency(ProviderCostsRetrieval([TblCompanykey],1),0) AS TotalCost
FROM TblCompany
ORDER BY TblCompany.TblCompanykey
UNION ALL SELECT 9999 AS TblCompanykey, CCur(Sum(([QryRptProviderCostsDuringPeriod.TotalCost]))) AS TotalCost
FROM QryRptProviderCostsDuringPeriod
GROUP BY 9999;
I have some Conditional Formatting of a Currency Field in an Entry Form. The cell is conditionally formatted with a yellow background when the value is zero.
I now wish to add an additional condition to the expression such that even if the value is zero it will not be formatted if a specific check box is TRUE.
I have tried modifying the expression such that it reads;
[currency field]=0 AND [check box]<>TRUE.
It correctly turns off the conditional formatting if the check box is ticked, but does not turn it on again when the check box is unticked.
how to change default currency in Access 2013 to a "foreign currency" (i.e. to Indonesia Rupiahs) without changing control panel (Region/Language>currency) - now setup as USA ($US)?

View 6 Replies View RelatedHello,
I've got a small form with one field called 'Price', this is set as a Currency type in the table design. How would I go about ensuring that the field (in form view) always starts with the '£' symbol...would this be an input mask or would it be something on the form?
Thank you for any advice :-)
Hello,
I have been trying to find the symbol or text to force a new line on a command button in a Access Form and have not had any luck. I have the command button pretty large and want 2 lines in the button. If anyone knows how to do this that would be great. Thank you very much !!!
I am tying to query the Symbol table to see if a recod exists with symbol code.
I am querying the tblSymbol table from Excelk vba and the Access DB is on my machine.
The code I am using is:
Set rs = New ADODB.Recordset
rs.Open "tblSymbol", cn, adOpenKeyset, adLockOptimistic, adCmdTable
Set rs2 = New ADODB.Recordset
sql = "SELECT * FROM [tblSymbol] WHERE [SymbolCode] = """ & someSymbol & """"
rs2.Open sql, cn, adOpenDynamic, adLockOptimistic
[Code] ....
MsgBox Exists always returns -1 but i know the code exists in the table.
Need to confirm whether the Default formatting option in the Conditional formatting Dialog won't work in datasheet view of a form. Please note that all conditional criteria are working fine but not the Default Formatting option - only in the Datasheet view (In Single Form view the default formatting is working fine)
View 11 Replies View RelatedI previously created 2 tables:

Hoping someone can help. I have looked for an answer and can't quite grasp what I need to do. I am using Access 2000.
Basically, I have a quote form that adds together all job related services and totals them using a currency field. Sales would like to have the option of quoting the job two decimal places or going out to three. So, I need to round to the two different cost options. I can't figure out how to do this. So, my question is:
1) Am I using the correct data type?
2) If currency is most appropriate, how do I show results such as:
$12.327 and $12.33.
If I only change decimal property (therefore, the display) for the fields, the form shows: 12.33 and 12.330. Have tried using the Round function different data types and not having any luck.
Hope this makes some sense. Thanks!
This is probably the easiest question to answer if you know where to look but I don't.
Working in the UK with Access 2000 I need to set the field in a table to show Dollar $ USD however the only values I have are £ GBP and € as defaults.
Now I thought that I could get this to change if I changed my regional settings but then it occurred to me that if I do that and it changes then surely it would mean that who ever used this database in our global organisation would end up with a currency shown in their own local currency. Whilst this may not seem like a problem it is if you don't realise and quote a figure to someone in your local currency.
i.e. at present the UK £ = nearly $2 USD
So if someone in the UK read the figures and it dispalyed £400,000 and quoted this to a person in the USA when in theory the figure was meant to show $400,000 it could cause all sorts of issues.
Can someone tell me the correct way of choosing $ without it affecting anything else.
Hi All.

Hello All,
I'm only fairly basic when it comes to Access, and I need some help with a query. Im running Access 2003 on XP Pro, and my current database is in a one to many relationship with Staff and Activities. A part of the Activites field involves the expenses of that particular activity. I have a field in my Activities table saying total expenses. The expense formats are in currency (including total). When I go to make a query, I'm using the following critera for the TotalExpenses field. "FoodExpenses"+"OtherExpenses". However, when I go to run the query, it tells me that there is a data type mismatch in the criteron expression. I changed the field formats to text and it will run. Can access 2003 support currency based querys and if so how? It would be really handy to know.
Hi to everyone. I have this form that my let's say clients should fill in. In one drop down list I need the client to be able to choose different currency i.e. euros or pounds or dollars. But I need the symbol to appear in the list and since the field is currency type I can't use the lookup wizard to decide what values should appear in that list.
How is this possible? Should I make an extra field of text type to choose the currency and on another field of number type to place the value I need or is there another way?
Hope I am cleaar enough...
Kyriakos
Me again. :)
Basic outline: I have a form that lets me select items from drop down boxes, and attached to these items are prices. There's 11 items on the form that need to be selected. Quick diagram.
----
[Item 1]
[Total of 1+2]
[Item 2]
[Item 3]
[Item 4] [Total of 3+4+5]
[Item 5]
[Item 6]
[Item 7] [Total of 6+7+8]
[Item 8]
[Item 9]
[Item 10] [Total of 9+10+11]
[Item 11]
[Total of the 4 Total Boxes above]
----
They've all been set to currency, and what I'm trying to do is to have it so that the final total box there at the very bottom cannot exceed a certain value without giving the user a warning and not allowing it to be accepted.
I guess the problem is that I can't get it to work. Here's the code I'm using to do it:
Private Sub TxtTotal_Change()
If Val(TxtTotal) > 85000000 Then
MsgBox "Total over allowed limit. Change selection."
End If
End Sub
I should note that on this form I had to use 'Val' infront of the boxes names, as when I was adding up the totals it was putting the prices side by side and not totalling them. For example if I added 2+2, it would give me 22 in the box instead of 4.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
I'm having a problem getting imported data to display what I want. I'm importing a fixed width file and one of my fields is a currency amount. The field value in the file is 12 characters with the last 2 as the cents (000000544990) I have my access field type as currency with 2 decimals (and I've tried many other settings auto,0 etc.) When I do my import it displays my data as $544,990.00 If I tell it no decimals it displays $544,990 It should be displayed as $5,449.90 somehow it keeps adding 2 characters and uses them as the cents instead of using the last 2 from my file.
Any suggestions?
Thanks for helping me out.
