Date Formulas In A Table,

May 25, 2005

I have this database, and one field is a start date, and another field is a date to mail out a thank you letter. I want this field to automatically display a date 5 days ahead of what the start date field's date is. I've seen how to do this in a form, but I need to do this from a table, and since I'm relatively new to access, I don't know where to put the formula, I can't figure it out, and I can't find anything pertinent in MS's help...

Array Formulas (scary Formulas)

Nov 15, 2005

Desperate help required - I am about to throw my laptop out the window, closely followed by myself!!!

I am self taught and rely on books or perseverence normally so apologies for lack of technical terminology. I have spent days on this to no avail- I believe this needs to be some sort of array formula but am open to any suggestions and advice!

Problem;
I have two workbooks, I need the result of the scary formula to be shown on the summary sheet in one field.

I need the formula to look at the other sheet and recognise (for each of the 100 or so rows) if the entry in column G is "F" or if it is "W" to recognise the number in column N and add it to all the other ones that also fit this spec.

Basically, the summary figure is the sum total of all the numbers in column N that have F or W in their associated column G.

A thousand thank yous to anyone who has the time to help!!!
Laura :confused:

Dynamic Query Based On "formulas" Stored In Table

Feb 13, 2008

Hi,

I have a table that looks something like this:


Company Product Sales
1 A 5
1 B 2
1 C 7
2 A 8
2 B 1
2 C 2


I want a query to produce a table showing Products A though D which is
the sum of Products A and B. Result:


Company Product Sales
1 A 5
1 B 2
1 C 7
1 D 7
2 A 8
2 B 1
2 C 2
2 D 9


I have many rows and many summations and the current union query and
supporting queries are pretty messy and not easily changeable. What
I'd like to do is have a third table which would hold the summed
product names and the formula used to get to it (Product D, A + B) and
have a query that can be dynamically based off of that table. Do I
need to use VBA? Does anyone have a better idea? Any help or even a
good search term would be appreciated!


Thanks!
Nathan

Formulas

May 31, 2005

Ok I have Access 2000 and I am a little rusty.
I have a table created that stores all of our relevant production information.
What I want to do is print out a report that shows the daily sales, as well as create totals (forumulas. For the life of me I cannot figure out how to get Access to calculate '# of Units x price per unit= total.' and put that in a report.

I understand I can use the form to enter data into the DB. Will a report do the calculations that I want? Or a query?

I am kinda at a loss and I need to figure this out.

Thanks

Using Formulas In Access

Mar 17, 2006

hi, i currently use acces to record the concrete order, used, wasted and waste %.

i was wondering if it possible to use access to calculate these, like excel does, and are the formulas similar to type in?

here's what im currently doing:
(For argument sake, i'll put the formulas from row 3 in)

Column A: Estimated Metres : Data manually input
Column B: Used Metres : Data manually input
Column C: Waste Metres : =IF(ISBLANK(B3),"",(A3-B3))
Column D: WAste % : =IF(ISBLANK(B3),"",((A3-B3)/A3))

The main bit i want access to do is in bole. ignore the rest, its just to keep my sheet tidy.

Can Microsoft Access do something similar. There is more, but i'l start here, so i can learn bit by bit.

Any info would be great. Thanks!

One PC Not Able To Calculate Formulas Ect.

Jul 10, 2007

Hello, I didn’t know how to explain this or where to post this but here we go! I have two databases and one of the PC's here at work can’t use some of the items in the database like on one of the databases there is some formulas in text boxes and that PC won’t calculate what’s needed in them and every PC in the plant will except for this one PC. Also the one PC won’t bring up the Allen Browne's Calendar. When you press the start or end button to bring up the calendar it never pops up but if I enter the start date and end dates and use it that way ect then it works. I have no clue why this is just happening to this one PC. Any ideas?

Queries With Formulas

Dec 22, 2005

I am in process of creating a new tracking report. I have to do a scoring system where the number of contacts you get a day equals a daily score. The problem I am having is getting this score to work with entries that are equations. One that I am working on is calls per hr/per day. I have inbound and outbound calls that have to be added-that part works. I then need to divide that number by the time worked for the day- that works. I now need to get that end result to match a score or ranking number. An example would be if a person takes 30 inbound calls and makes 125 out bound calls and works 7.5 hours. My calculation is (30+125)/7.5=20.6. My totals are now expressions because they read: Expr3: (([Extnout]+[ACDCalls])/Expr1). By the scoring set up, 20.6 needs to equal 4. How do I get the expression to read a score and make it equal.

Formulas In Access

Jun 3, 2005

If i was to use a forumla in excel to add a number of cells together i would use this forumla =sum(c1:c4) rather than having to use =sum(c1+c2+c3+c4) In access i want to add a number of fields together so that i can caluclate the number of days we have had pallets in our warehouse. I have tried entering the formula =[days stored 1]:[days stored 4] ( i have also tried enter "=sum infront aswell")but it comes back with an error message. but when i enter =[days stored 1]+[days stored 2]+[days stored 3] and this gives me the correct sum. is there any way i can use ":" in the formula since i have a 100 fields called days stored(number) and i will be very painful having to type the formula in the long way.

thanks

Problems With Formulas From Excel

Nov 20, 2007

Hi,

i currently have a spreadsheet with 6 columns and about 80,000 rows in excel.
I have been told to move it to access to make it faster. but am having problems.

each column has a number in it eg: 1, 5, 23, 45, 56, 43
say i need to find any rows containing eg: 5, 1, 56

currently (in excel) i use an extra column with this formula

=isnumber(MATCH(5,A1:F1,0)*MATCH(1,A1:F1,0)*MATCH( 56,A1:F1,0))

and it tells me which row has the numbers in it with either true or false, and then i filter the trues to get all the rows that have the numbers i need

and the numbers i want to find will change all the time

i have tried to copy the whole spreadsheet to access and it comes across, but my formula doesnt work

Is there any way around this, should i be doing something else?

Thankyou for your help:)

Formulas To Values And Then Storage

Dec 5, 2004

I am hoping someone can help with the following...

I have a form which calculates values based on (of corse) the info entered on the form and some subforms for example...
here is one of my formulas

=Form!QuiltTypes!QuiltPrice*[TotalInches]

I am assuming that because this is a formula the value will not be saved in the table... or at least its not doing that now.

Can someone tell me how I can move my formula values to my table for storage?

This is my first time here so if you need more info or anything please let me know.

Using Financial Formulas From Excel On Query Results In Access

Aug 31, 2012

I have a query that includes several columns, one of those columns shows returns on investment as a percentage. I need to figure out the annualised returns on investment using the following excel formula

{=PRODUCT(1+B1:B24)-1^(12/24)-1}

This formula gathers the percentages for the last two years then provides an annualized amount.

I'm just wondering whether this is possible to apply to the query so that when I open the query it can provide me with the 2 year annualized statistics.

Appending Leading Zeros By If Statement With Formulas For True And False In SQL

Jul 15, 2014

My first question is how do I append 00001 so I can have a value for the false side of 9123400001 instead of 912341...My second question is why does it prompt me to enter parameters? It also produces all false values from the if statement...What I am trying to do is use a column that has either a Y or a N and using the if statement to correspond with different formulas depending on the Y or N.This what I have so far.

SELECT
IIF (ISRAILROAD=Y,9 & UCN & TXRTAREA, 9 & UCN & 00001 )

Queries :: Find Date In Table 1 Closest To Another Date In Table 2?

Mar 17, 2015

I have a table, tblVisits, holding patient's pre and post surgery visits:

Code:

PatientID VisitDate
1 1/5/12
1 3/10/12
1 9/1/13
2 ...

And another table holding patient's surgeries (each patient will have only one surgery)

Code:
PatientID SurgeryDate
1 4/1/12
2 ...

I need to compare these two tables and create a variable that indicates which pre-surgery visit date (i.e., VisitDate < SurgeryDate) is closest to the surgery date. In the above example, it would return:

Code:
PatientID VisitDate ClosestToSurgery
1 1/5/12
1 3/10/12 Yes
1 9/1/13
2 ...

I've tried various MIN and MAX approaches and can't seem to get it right.

Forms +List Boxes +Text Boxes With Formulas

Nov 8, 2004

I have a form with a List Box (List BoxA) that returns a value from a query. I then have a Text Box (Text BoxB) that uses the value from List BoxB and multiplies it by let's say 2. It works giving me the correct value but only becomes visible after I click inside List BoxA. How can I make it visible as soon as the form is opened? I tried refreshing the form data, didn't work and I tried a requery macro which didn't work either.

Thanks,

Lester

Auto Fill Field In A Table By Comparing A Given Date Against Current Date?

Aug 18, 2015

I am building a database to track contract of employees so that I can know which contracts are valid and which are expired.

My table has the following fields:

ID (Primary key)
Employee ID (Foreign key to link to the employee table)
Start_Date
End_Date
Status (Either valid or expired)
Challenge

I want when I enter the end date, the system checks the end date against the current date and fills in the status field with either valid or expired as appropriate. For instance if the contract end date is March 10,2016, the status must be filled in the word valid.
