Exchange Rate Problem
Sep 17, 2005
I've got a question about MS Access.
I've got a table with different customers and different rates that they offer for certain products. The problem is that different customers deal in different currencies. The currencies are one of three; Euro's, Pounds or Dollars.
I would like to create a query that would convert each customers rates to the same currency (pound).
The information is divided into 2 different tables. A customer table and a product table. I've created a form that is based on the customer table and features the product table as a sub-form.
What I would like to do is have an option that would enable me to enter the current exchange rates (as they are constantly changing) which would be used to convert the individual rates depending on the currency used by customers.
Form fields as follows
- cust_id
- cust_name
- company_name
- company_add1
- company_add2
- company_pc
- company_country
sub-form
- prod_id
- prod_name
- currency
- prod_rate
- convert
I'm sure this is possible, but my knowledge on this matter is limitted.
Thanks in advance for any advice given.

i would love to hear suggestions.. what kind of problems i am likley to encounter or if any one has attempted or succesfully managed to do this or something similar.

Hi all,
First of all I hope this question is relevant to this part of the forum, I thought this was the best place to put it, but my ignorance of the subject may mean it ends up being more closely related to one of the other areas.
I'm struggling with some statistical reporting on Email Enquiries, which I'm currently doing manually using Advanced Find in the Outlook Public Folders and putting counts into an Excel spreadsheet. I find the whole thing quite ackward (as you might imagine), and the Advanced Find in Outlook frustrates me as it can be quite limiting.
What I'd like to do is set up an Access Data Project as a front-end for the Exchange folders concerned. I'm pretty well versed in MDB's but I've never set up an ADP before. I assume this is possible as I'm under the impression that MS Exchange is basically an SQL Server database. Is this correct? Will I be able to configure it using the Wizard that appears when I create a new ADP (if given permission by the MS Exchange Admin)?
Thanks for your help.
Abby

I have searched the forums and did not see the question I am about to ask.
I have created a link table in Access to the exchange server at work. When I try to get someone to view the table I created they can not view it. When I look at the Link Table Manager it shows the link is pointing to my personal temp directory instead of the main folder in exchange. How do you link the table to a folder that all can see?
Thanks

I had in the pass written a program in Access 2000 that would directly output reports to WinFax. It wasn’t the fastest solution but it worked just fine. I no longer have a WinFax Server. So that solution is no longer an option. Is there a way for me to do the same thing with Access 2000 and Exchange Server? The idea would be, to be able to print the 200 or so price list and have them faxed out using Exchange Server. These are not a broadcast fax each price list would be faxed to a different number. I am using SQL SERVER 2000, Access 2000 and Exchange Server 2003. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It seems like I've been all over the web searching for a solution, and I'm almost convinced it can't be done, but something makes me press on. Here's what I'm trying to do:
A user opens a form in Access. The user clicks a button on the form which opens a "browser" that actually points to an Exchange mailbox. After the user selects a message (or perhaps several messages), they click a "save" button, and the messages, their contents, and attachments are all archived out to a folder on a network drive and then are deleted from the Exchange server.
It seems pretty simple, sort of like envoking a file dialog, only pointing it to Outlook/Exchange. I've even tried linking the Exchange folder as a linked table, but I keep hitting a brick wall. Perhaps it's coders' block?
If anybody has any suggestions, they'd be greatly appreciated...

As part of a larger system I currently have a standalone A2010 program which processes emails that it sees within Outlook. As my client is moving to Exchange Server I was wondering whether there was a better way of doing this by getting rid of Outlook and "talking" directly to Exchange.

Hoi, Well, this is my 1st EVER database and whatever I've learnt is either from here or 'on-the-way'..It's a Libr4ry Database for a college assignment.Basically, I'm a DBA and also an employee at the library.Nurseries come to us/me to hire books for their students/children/whatever.In my DB you canAdd Authors (of books)Add Books Add copies of booksAdd NurseriesDelete authorsdelete booksdelete nurseriesLoan booksReserve booksReturn booksview all authors reportview all booksview all nurseriesview current loansview current reservationsI've attached my DB, have a little play around say what you think about it..I know at the moment there are a few issues: Adding a copy of a book is annoying because you have to add the book first and then go into an other form and add it as many times as you have it. On Loan report you can't see whether or not the book has been returned Authors_ID are stupidly HIGH and i have no idea why? Autonumber 1,2,3-100? No! 1,2,3,4120032,4120033,4120034 etc! Books can be loaned MANY times Reservations can be made MANY times with the same book Can't view the stock level on a book (haven't done this yet) RETURN table doesn't show necessary data such as names of book and nursery just their ID's which can cause confusion RETURN table 'returned?' combo box shows 0/1 instead of Yes/No although Yes/No are in the drop down box it'sself.. LOAN Table 'date due back' textbox shows '#error' when there isn't a date entered in the Loan date textbox..That list isn't conclusive :' )I'll probably find loads more thing wrong with it..But, if you could..just gimme your feedback and what COULD be improved.. and what's sh-t and what's not etc.Database password is my username.Cheers for all the help with it guys/guyesses!:D:DEDIT: if problems opening .zip, rename it too whatever.rar.

Hello all,
I am talking to a potential customer about doing some contract work using access. This would be my first contract using access and I was just curious what some of you are charging as your rate. I'm a strong developer but my experience has been in a full-time position so I'm not sure what contractors would get paid.
Any help would be appreciated!

I am self-taught on Access and have designed a quite basic database for a friend who owns his own company. This is a client contact database designed to hold information about his clients and their companies, but also to send reminders to Outlook when they haven't been contacted for a while - ie. to make my friend more proactive in his business.
This was a project which I originally agreed to work on for a fixed price. Needless to say, I undersold myself and probably because I am self-taught, with the number of hours I have put in, I probably got paid 2p an hour!
The project is drawing to a close, but he wants to pay me per hour for any further development to the system, and for any similar work he wants doing, problem is I haven't a clue what to charge him per hour?
Any ideas, without divulging your well-earned salaries of course!

hey,
i have a customer form which includes a "Country" combo box.. the reason i did this is because i have a separate table with a list of countries and their VAT (Value Added Tax, you americans call it sales tax i think :)) rates.
i want this country saved in the customers table.. i need the country table to act merely as a source of data. Now ive spent a good hour tying to fix it messing around with the relationship between the two tables and the combo box itself.. but ive only been able to come to two end results
a) access tells me i cant save the new customer record cause a related record is required in the country table.
b) access enters a new line in my country table with the autonumber of the country selected on the add new customer form in the Country field.
im stumped as to where the problem is:// how can i fix it?

I have created a table for customer bills, and a table for customer profiles which contains rates associated with them specifically. The problem is that after a new rate change has been imposed I want to be able to look at an old bill, via a report, and have it reflect the "old" rate within proper historical context. I'm looking for suggestions on how to best manage ongoing rate changes while maintaining a billing rate history in my reports?

I am setting up a time tracking database which will track employees maintenance times. Several employees spend X number of hours each day maintaining machines from different categories, such as mowing, snow removal, etc.
I am trying to figure out if it is possible to set the tables up in a way which will not require adding an employees wage rate to every time tracking (listed in the time tracking table below) record. To somehow have the table pull data from the most recent wage record for that particular employee. As employees get raises I would like to retain the old rate in the time tracking table along with the new rate for current data.
The way I have the tables setup right now are as follows.
Employee table
EmployeeIDFirstNameLastNameAddress, Phone, etc
Maintenance Categories table
MaintIDMaintName
Wage table
WageIDEmployeeIDDateEffectiveCurrentWage
Time Tracking table
TimeTrackingIDEmployeeID (lookup from employee table)MaintID (lookup from maintenance table)WageID (lookup from the wage table)DateOfMaintenanceStartTimeEndTime
All of the tables have relationships in the time tracking table.

We recently have had a change to our hourly rate that we pay and now the Totals calculation is not adding up the numbers correctly.
In the query that the report is based from:
ExtendedTotal: CCur([Hours]*[Rate])
In the footer of the report: (Provides a Total for each Day)
Sub-Total: "Control Source" is: =Sum(CCur([ExtendedTotal]))
Report Footer: (Provides a Grand Total for the Month)
Total: "Control Source" is: =Sum([ExtendedTotal])
Problem comes in with the odd dollar rate time partial hours. For example:
$9.73 x 4.5 hours = $43.785 (Rounds to $43.79) which is fine...
but when you have a whole column of these rounded numbers, the totals are coming out off by pennies which add up to a good bit at the end of the month. I cannot match up the totals with the invoices that are coming in either.

I have a query that displays the average call rate on various pieces of equipment over the last 12 months. I was wondering if there is a way to have Access look at this query and determine if the call rates are trending up or down over that time frame. Kind of like a trend line would do on a chart in Excel, only I want this to show me the word Up or Down in my results. Is this possible?
Here is the query I am using:
Code:
TRANSFORM FormatNumber(Avg([All Call Rate]),2) AS AvgCallRate
SELECT List_With_TNC_tbl.Device, List_With_TNC_tbl.Model, List_With_TNC_tbl.[Item Num]
FROM List_With_TNC_tbl
GROUP BY List_With_TNC_tbl.Device, List_With_TNC_tbl.Model, List_With_TNC_tbl.[Item Num]
PIVOT Format([Month Start Date],"mmm") In ("Jan","Feb","Mar","Apr","May", "Jun", "Jul","Aug","Sep", "Oct", "Nov", "Dec");

I am using Access 2007 and have inherited a database. It has linked tables of Excel spreadsheets that are information extracted from our main system. The user wants developing a much faster and customized approach to billing the customer based on payroll related information.
There is a table of payroll billing transactions and it has the following record lay-out,
job_num, employee number, employee name, union group, rank, regular hours, overtime hours, other hours, trans_date, seq_num
6430, 2301, john doe, 1, F, 8.0, 0.0, 0.0, 12/01/2012, 254333
On December 1st John Doe worked 8.0 regular hours as a pipefitter foreman on job number 6430 and this is record (sequence) number 254333.
There is another table that defines the union group. I am not concerned with this information at this time. The seq_num is a sequentially and uniquely assigned number given to each billing record in the main system.
There is also a Rate Master table and it has the following record layout,
job_num, union group, rank, regular_billing_rate, overtime_billing_rate, other_billing_rate
I am struggling as to how to relate these two tables so that I can develop some queries from it.

I have one table with employees and positions. Each position has a specific rate which is stored in another table (table2). Since the rates of the positions are changing, I want each time the employee get paid with the correct rate.
The problem is that I do not want to lose historic data since I want the rate to calculate the salary. I thought that the best way is to look up for the rate according to the position and the period that is valid.
I have attached herewith a small example with the two table that I want to use the relationship.

I have a table called tbl_Employee. The employee's hourly rate is one of the columns. I want to create a forecasting schedule that will find the work days between two dates, multiply by 8 (hours per day) and multiply by the hourly rate.
For example, Employee A has rate of $100/hr. We forecast they will work 250 work days from January 1, 2014 to January 1, 2015 so 250*8*100= $200,000.
However, on June 1, the rate for Employee A increases to $110. So the new forecast would be (125*8*100)+(125*8*110)=(100,000+110,000)=$210,000 .
How can I account for something like this?
