Avoiding Divide By Zero Error
Aug 25, 2005Hi all.
I have three subforms on my main form. They all display salary details from different sources, and each subform has 2 calculated fields in the form footer to show the average salary and the number of records on which the average has been calculated.
I then have a field on the main form to calculate the average of the averages which works OK unless one of the subforms has null or zero in it, in which case it returns no information.
Can anyone suggest a way of bypassing this divide by zero error? The code I'm using to calculate the average of averages is as follows:
Me!Text44 = ((Me![Frm1 subform].Form!text4 * Me![Frm1subform].Form!Text6) + (Me![Frm2 subform].Form!text4 * Me![Frm2 subform].Form!Text6) + (Me![Frm3 subform].Form!Text6 * Me![Frm3 subform].Form!Text8)) / (Me![Frm1 subform].Form!Text6 + Me![Frm2 subform].Form!Text6 + Me![Frm3 subform].Form!Text8)
Thanks for any help you can provide...
Queries :: Divide Profit Over Turnover To Show Margin - Division By Zero Error
Apr 10, 2013I am running a very simple query that divides profit over turnover to show the margin. I have many queries throughout my database that do this, here is my little formula;
Margin: Round(([profit]/[Turnover])*100,2)
Now, this runs just fine but if I put in a criteria of <10 I get the division by zero error. The reason I am confused is that there are no zeros or error values or even negative values in either of the profit or turnover columns?
Also I have an almost identical query in another database that has a <5 criteria in it and it works a peach.
I have searched but all I am getting is the usual definition of the division by zero error.
Query - Divide
Mar 13, 2006Just wondering, if this is possible and if so how?
I got query results and would like to divide a figure from the number of results shown..
so if 4 results are shown from the query then i would like to divide 100 by 4, and if 5 results showed then divide it by 5?
Divide And Store
Mar 17, 2005Hi hope someone can help,
What I’m trying to do is work out price per quantity, at the mo I have a database that has products and price so lets take paint for an example.
If I have a 5 litre pot of paint and I’m selling it for £10 I would like a field that tells me the price per litre, so what I’m think I need to do is have a field called ”price” and divide it by a second field called “quantity” and output the sum to a third field called “price per litre” which populates the database.
Sadly I haven’t got a clue how to do this with access and if anyone can help it would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Divide By 1,000 Like In Excel
Oct 24, 2006HiIn Excel, I believe you can format a number and automatically divide it by 1,000 without messing up rounding.For example, 10,000.06 after you apply the formatting becomes 10 as in 10k (for some reason accounting people find this easier to look at/work with). However, if you try to sum the value Excel will actually use the decimal figure rather than the number 10.Is there a similar way in Access?

Modules & VBA :: How To Divide / Distribute Books To Boxes
Apr 18, 2015I have a list that shows how many books we have for each PO No. (Sorted by PO No.) Like below:
LIST 1:
Code:
PO NoTOTAL BOOKS
PO-0001 12
PO-0002 15
PO-0003 26
Now I would like to distribute/divide these different books to boxes and each box gets maximum 10 books. Like below list:
LIST 2:
Code:
BOX NOBOOKSPO NO
0001 BOOK 1~10 PO-0001
0002 BOOK 11~12 PO-0001
0002 BOOK 1~8 PO-0002
0003 BOOK 9~15 PO-0002
0003 BOOK 1~3 PO-0003
0004 BOOK 4~13 PO-0003
0005 BOOK 14~23 PO-0003
Format is not important in the list2, for example in Box 0002 we have book 11~12 means (book 11 of 12 +book 12 of 12) in po-0001
+ book 1 of 15 until book 8 of 15) in po-0002
books have bookno, for example for po-0001 we have 12 different books it means we have bookno (1 of 12) until (12 of 12) for this po no.
How I can produce automatically list 2 from list 1 by query or coding.
Queries :: Make All Of Values Divide Correctly?
Jul 31, 2014Simple division, I thought! I'm dividing a Sum of hours by Pay Periods to determine the average of missing hours for year-to-date. Most of the division works perfectly, and some doesn't and appears to be related to values of 1 or less than one.The formula: [Sum]/[Pay Periods].Sum relates to total missing hours and pay periods are total pay periods for the year so far.What comes out wrong:
1 (hr) / 12 (pay periods) = 8.33, when it should be .0833
0.5 / 12 = 4.166 when it should be .0416
What is right is everything else, starting with 1.5 hrs
1.5 / 12 = 0.125
What do I need to do to make all of the values divide correctly?
Queries :: How To Divide Result Of One Select Query By Another
Mar 17, 2013I'm struggling with the correct syntax for this, but ideally what I want to achieve is:
SELECT (SELECT Count(Status) FROM P_T WHERE 'criteria are met') / (SELECT Count(Status) FROM P_T WHERE 'different criteria are met')
They are both fairly simplistic select statements, so I imagine this is not that difficult to achieve, but I'm not sure how to structure the query.
Queries :: Put Sum Of All Records In Calculated Field And Divide It By Predefined Value
Feb 6, 2014I want to take the sum of all records 'cost' i.e.
record 1 - 2
record 2 - 4
record 3 - 3
I want to take the sum and put it in a calculated field and use it to divide it by a predefined value 'no of responses.'
So I make the field in the query -> Calcfield: (Sum([cost])/[responses])
I am pretty new to this and i don't understand why this won't work? Is it something to do with the row Group by (total.)
General :: Divide Groups By Equal Distribution Of Merit / Talent?
Aug 9, 2013I am with an educational organisation. Now we need to allocate various fields to students depending upon their merit, where the difference between the average percentages between any two groups cannot be more than 2% and that also implies equal distribution of talent. However, First few have to be given choice of field and also students recommended have to be given choice. The number of fields varies from 2 to 8. . Further the vacancies are also not equal in all fields. E.g. for 100 students to be divided in four fields the vacancies can be 35 for ZZSS, 24 for UYTE, 29 for OIUI and 12 for HGFT.
I need a solution preferably in MS Excel or MS access for the same with nil/ least usage of VBA.

DLookUp To Divide A Field In One Record By The Same Field In Another Record
Dec 13, 2006I'm fairly new to setting up Access databases. Been learning a lot. Ran into a snag that I'm hoping you can help me with.
I am using a form to display text labels and running statistics for our jail.
The form, "Complete_Worksheet" gets its data from a query, "qryComplete_Worksheet". Fields that make these up are:
ID (key)
Standard (text)
Outcome Measure (text)
Numerator/Denominator (text)
CalcValue (number)
ID, Standard, Outcome Measure, and Numerator/Denominator are queried from a table, "tblComplete_Worksheet". CalcValue comes from another query, "qryDataSelect". My problem is this:
In the final calculated statistic, some records are numerators and some are denominators. I need one more field, which I have been trying to create as a calculated control on my form which will divide each numerator CalcValue value by the denominator CalcValue value following it. Since these values change constantly as new data is entered into another data table, the calculated control needs to also change with them. I have been attempting to do this using the following expression:
=DLookUp("[CalcValue]","Complete_Worksheet", "[ID]="&"[ID]-1"/[ID]=")
I keep getting a #Error message in the control in form view. When I run the expression in the Immediate window, I get a Compile Error:
Expected: line number or label or statement or end of statement
Any suggestions on how to make this work?

Reserved Error (-1517); There Is No Message For This Error.
Mar 31, 2006Does anybody know what this error message refers to?
"Reserved Error (-1517); there is no message for this error."
It just started happening today, and I haven't even made any changes to the database. It occurs when I hit a button I have to run a macro.
the macro does the following:
1) Shows all records
2) Requery
3) ApplyFilter.
The Where Condition for the filter is:
Right([tblContracts].[JobNum],4)=Right([Forms]![FrmContProc].[txtFindJobNum],4)
The weird thing is that it only occurs if the Form window is taller than 1/2 of my viewable area. If the Form window is 1/2 the viewable area or shorter, it works OK. This was running fine earlier today, but about 4:00 pm (03/31/06) this started happening.
If anybody knows what this error means, or how to get rid of it (I really need to use this window in full-screen) then please let me know.
-Thanks, Sean
Error 3341 Or Error 3022; Do Or Don't, I'm Damned.
Aug 3, 2006Okay, I'm kind of stumped here.I have a subform that has a button that sends a user to a "sibling" subform on another tab page, pass some information to ensure they are adding more details to the same records rather than creating two separate record.First time I programmed it, I got an error 3022 (keys cannot have duplicate values). I checked the query of the sibling subform and saw that the ID is from the one side table. I changed it so many table's foreign key is used. Second try, I got an error 3341 (there isn't a matching key in one side table).After some thinking, it also occured to me that I had set the query this way to allow addition of new record which wouldn't be possible if I had the query pulling the many side key, not the one side key.How do I get the subform to accept the ID that is being passed and create a new record using that ID?:confused:

Error Handling - Enough To Put In On Error Event
Sep 24, 2005Every form has an on error property.
Is it enough for error handling to code the on error property for each form?
With enough I mean error handling which lets you resume the program.
Ontherwise I have to code (or call a procedure) for each coded event which i wouldn't prefer
For instance now I'm putting error handling in each event but would consider it more efficient if it can be placed once in each form
