Hey i have a percent field in a query which displays correctly in the datasheet view, but when make the report the percent is just a long row of numbers :confused:
anyone got any suggestions? would be greatly appreciated
Maybe someone knows the logic behind MS Access for the display of percents in the formating..... ie.... If you input 3 you get 300.00%. I really dont think ANY user would look at a form... with a field called...say "Commission percent" and expect an input of a 5 to return 500.00% Does this need to be corrected with coding?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI searched everywhere for a solution to my problem. I have to create a field and set its format property to Percent using code. I know how to create the field using code but how do i get to Format property? Is that possible?
Thanks in advance for your answers!
hi all,
i normally just go into design view in my query to change the format type, but some of my subqueries are quite large, so i'm getting 'the expression exceeds the 1,024 character limit for the query design grid.
i figured i could just multiply the subquery by 100, but the results are still calculated out to about ten decimal places.
so... how do i format a subquery directly in sql to be a percentage with two decimal places?
thank you,
mj
Hi,
How can format proper display for percentage values. What happens is I chose a field as percent, but if I put in 9 meaning 9 % I get 900% as the value is multiplied by 100, but if I put in 0.09 I get 0%.
I just want to put in day 9 and be saved as 9%.
thanks

I have set a field in table to be a 'percent' However, try as I might am unable to type in 40 and get 40%
I seem to get either 4000% or 0. I have tried differing settings.
Has anybody else had this trouble and could offer some advice?
Thanks :confused:
Hi, in my query I am calculating a NET PRICE starting from the GROSS PRICE and the DISCOUNT % (Percent field). The Net Price shows incorrectly an amount which contains several decimals "invented" at the right end. For example, in this moment I have an item with Gross Price = 576,09 and Discount % = 10,00%. The Discount Amount shown by the query is 57,6090049743652 while the correct result should be 57,609. Therefore the Net Price is incorrect as well. Any thoughts about this ? Is there any known problem with the PERCENT fields ?
Thanks and regards. Alberto
Hello:
This is for the purchasing guy at my client's office. He has 9 vendors he wants to track their on time delivery performance. The data comes from the purchase order tables in his accounting software, to which I've linked via ODBC.
So far so good. I've created a query to pull only those 9 vendors from his total population, then ask for the date range to query by date for the date range (start and end date), and use an expression to calculate the difference between the date wanted and date received so he can tell if the delivery was on time or not. (ex: date wanted: 3/10/06 date received 3/13/06. 3 days difference = late delivery)
The twist is he wants another field so he can mark whether he considers the delivery late or not depending on extenuating circumstances he keeps locked up in his cranium, despite what the date difference results tell him. So, I created a combo box and he can select "Yes" or "No." If he selects YES, a value of 1 is written to the table in that field, if he selects NO, a value of 2 is written to the same field.
So, I need the query to group by vendor, count the total number of entries for that month by that vendor, count the number of "1"s and express that total as a percent of total deliveries.
To summarize, vendor A had 8 deliveries, 5 were on time, meaning he had a 62.5% delivery score. Vendor B had 10 deliveries, 7 on time, meaning a 70% delivery score.
Sorry for the long winded explanation, but perhaps someone can assist. All help appreciated.
I have a a table that stores various financial information such as sales receipt totals and variance totals (if actual cash in drawer did not match receipts, etc...) that I use to track cashier performance and identify possible problems. Part of this process includes a query that I pull reports against.
One such query, simplified to illustrate the concept, lists the dollar total that their receipts indicate they made, and the dollar amount that their actual drawer was off (either short or over what they should have taken in.) In this query I added fields that total Netsales (calculated from the first two fields) and another that calculates the percentage the variance is compared to their NetSales. The SQL behind the query is as follows:
Code:
SELECT tbl_OSRImport.Receipts, tbl_OSRImport.OverShort, [Receipts]-[OverShort] AS NetSales, [OverShort]/[NetSales] AS VarPerc
FROM tbl_OSRImport
WHERE (((tbl_OSRImport.OverShort)<>0) AND (([Receipts]-[OverShort])<>0));
This query works just fine. The calculated fields correctly display their results. The issue presents itself when I try to build a method for a user to run a report to see all the cashiers whose Varience Percentage (VarPerc) is equal to or within a range they specify. This allows the user to see all the cashiers who, for example, are more that 5% over or short. I have tried a number of criteria expressions in the query, with no success. I have gotten everything from a prompt asking me for paremeters to an error stating "Stack Overflow." I believe the problem has something to do with the fact that the numerical value that is calculated is a long string of numbers ending in letters and characters, which the Query displays as a neat and tidy Percentage. Below is an example of the data that I hope will explain this:
In the Query, the expression is: VarPerc: [OverShort]/[NetSales]
When the Query runs, the full numerical result is: -4.27103159497526E-02
Which visually is output as: -4.72%
Mathmatically (on a calculator using the same values) the equation is as follows:
-11.22 / 262.70 = -0.04271032
I think my attempts are failing becaue the query is trying to compare the user's input of (for example) 5, .5, .05, etc.... against the numerical value in the query result that includes the E-02 (above example.) So, rightfully it comes back with no results or an error.

I'm enrolling medical centers in a new multi-center database. There are a number of steps that must be completed before the center is enrolled in the project. I have a form that serves as a checklist. I want the textbox at the bottom of the form to display the percentage of steps completed. I guess you would have to count the number of fields on the form that are filled in, but I don't know how to do it.

I have a list of dates in the mm/dd/yyyy format and I am looking to get it into the fiscal format of yyyyww. I am able to do this with the datepart and format functions, but I need to make it so that the fiscal month begins in January but the first week starts if there are three or more days in the week. For instance if Jan 1st is a Friday then this stands as the first fiscal week, if it is a Saturday then it does not count as the first week.
datepart and format functions have the Use the first week in the year that has at least 4 days for the firstweekofyear option but I need it where it has at least three to make it work.

I am exporting data from access 2007 to Excel 2007 using VBA code. I have a whole number, which I want displayed as whole number. But after the export, the number is using the 1000's seperator in Excel. So for example if my original number in access table is 12000, it is showing up as 12,000 in the excel file.It has something to do with the NumberFormat property. I have tried doing this but doesn't work.
objSheet.Range("A1:A7").NumberFormat = "General"

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to use Conditional Formatting Options on a Text box called "Date".

I have tried various suggestions posted, but still can't seem to get the result I need. I have a field I have to import to a database, SS (Social Security Number). In the database I am exporting from, it is text and does not use leading zeros. In the database I am importing into, it must have leading zeros and be in the format 123-45-6789 as a text field. I have tried input masks, formats, etc but still can't seem to make it work. I do not want to add zeros to fields that have the beginning three digits, or add too many zeros to the fields having two of the three digits. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
I've created a database to keep track of schedules, and have created a report that displays like a calendar.
Similar to Pat's example here

What I would like to do now, is create a DAP that will display in a similar format. But because the report uses subreports, it doesn't just tranfer over.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to create a simlar calendar format, within a DAP?
We want to use this on our intranet, so everyone can see each others schedules, and this is the only thing left I have to do. I just can't seem to get anything to work.
thanks

I have a problem with one of my combo box. The format setting of the combo box doesn't change anything to the way I see my data. The row source is based on a query of which the 'data sheet view' shows my field with three decimal number. Whatever setting I change on my combo boxe parameter, the data in the list are always shown with 2 decimals. What can i do to view my data with 3 decimals?
