In one of my queries I calculate a percentage based on a change from one year to the next; however, sometimes there will not be any prior year data hence the percentage is undefined (i.e. current year amount/0=undefined). To stop the query from displaying an error when this is the case I wrote the following:
I have the properties of the field set to percentage, but the calculation does not display as a percentage but as a long decimal. If I take out the Iif the percentages display fine however there are errors for the undefined calculations (hence why I inserted the Iif). How can I amend the code above to only display the "N/A" answers as text. I know about the formatpercent function, however I am exporting this output to excel and this when using the formatpercent or formatnumber operation the data still displays as text and not a number. Any ideas?
Greetings all, I am probably just being dense. But how do I go about entering a percentage of say 5% in a numer field formated to percentage in a table? If I enter 5 in translates to 500%, .05 as 0! Thanks, Brian. Zimbabwe.
I have a "make table" query. Inside that query there is a simple expression that divides two fields by one another to arrive at a %. Example 5/100=5%. However, the data returned is not in a % format.I know that I can go into table properties and change the fromat to "percentage", but that will only work for the current table that I have created. Once I re-run the "make table" query, I lose the change to the format, and my value again returns to a number, not a %..
Is there any way to always have a percentage returned without having to manually change the format each time that I run the query, or having to make a "delete" and "append query" ?
I have set the format of a text box (named: scrILS) to percentage. It shows on the form as 0.00%
When I try to run calculations off of it like: = [scrILS]*[totBuysFYDP1], it throws this error: #TYPE!
It seems as though the textbox is keeping it as text for the percent sign "%" is preventing any calculations against it... here's the strange part... it doesn't happen initially when I open the form... the calculations work and I get no error, but I have code that recalculates everything based on values picked in a list box... on the requery I get the error.
When I look at the watch frame for that control it shows the scrILS value as: "00.0%" not 00.0%... any thoughts on this?
I attempted to just take the thing as a string and use a replace function against the "%" then calculating... that works, but then the initial form load throws the error.
Seems like I am missing something in the property settings, but I don't know what. Is there something that forces the format value, setting percentage as a number vs. text?... I thought that was just part of the format setting...no?
In my form I would like a text box to display the two combined i.e. £10.000.00 (83.33%). At the moment it displays 10000 83.3333333333333. I can use £#,##0.00 to format the current half, but how can I then format the percentage to display 83.33%?
I have a text percentage that reads 28.0%. I want to convert to a numeric percentage that reads either 0.28 or 28.0%, preferably the latter. The Val function returns an error.
I wanted to assign the field "Number of magazine" with special format based on date/time format but showing only year and month in the format: "yyyy-mm".
So in property of this field in format I put yyyy-mm and in input mask I type 0000-00;;-
I also created the form based on the table containing above field and I defined format and input mask for corresponding formant in the same way like at the table.
But if I try to type date for example 2014-01 in text box of the form it comes up with the full date 2014-01-01. Why does it do like this? What do I do incorrectly?
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 have a table that documents the result of unit inspections. The data is Date inspected (once/month), Unit, and about 12 yes/no fields.
I want to run a query that shows the percentage compliant (yes) of all of the categories per month. I also want to be able to graph the results for one year per month to show trends.
Hi, i have poduced a report and i want to calculate some percentages. Some of the fields i have are:
Total Sales Clothes Shoes Pants
200 20 120 60
% 100% 10% 60% 30%
As you can see in total 200 sales were made, 20 clothes sales, 120 shoe sales etc and below it a percentage of each of the sale types. I have put this ' =Sum([Clothes]/[Total Sales])*100 ' in to calculate the percentage...but it does not work...Any help would me much appreciated :)
*This hasn't shown up very well...hope you understand it?!
Hello, I'm stuggling to work out how to go about setting up a formula.
I have 497 students 186 are Male 311 are Female. How do i work out the percentage of Male and Female students? I have no idea how to do the Math behind this so cannot start to add it to my database. If anyone can show me how to calculate this it would be really helpful.
I need to be able to store percentages in an Access 97 table. I have set the data type to double and 4 decimal places, but when I enter .14, Access rounds to 0 and stores it as zeros.
I am creating a database to help me monitor the students in my class. I have a query that takes a student mark from one table and compares it with the maximum mark available for the assessment/homework. In a calculated field called Percent I divide the mark by the maximum mark and then multiply by 100. This gives me the percent. I then have another calculated field which awards a grade from A to C and if they don't achieve a C they are awarded a Fail. The IIf statement looks like this:
Here is the bit I don't understand. If a student gets 99 % they are awarded an A (cut offs are: 70% and above for an A, 60% to 69 % for a B and 50% to 59% for a C. 49% and below gets a fail). If they get 65% they get a B... all appears fine. But, if they should happen to get 100% the query says "Fail". Can someone shed any light?
The Field "Response" can either be 0 or 1. The Variable "Countofresponse" gives me the Count of response when it is 0 and 1 for a given Date of Review.
How do I modify this query so I can get a Percentage value added to this list. I would like to see the following result but not sure how to arrive at this:
I have about 40 queries based on employed trainees from different groups(MMF, MKO, CNP,...). Now, what I'm trying to do is find the percentage of trainees employed from the total trainees, % employed in community from total trainees, % employed at wuskwatim from total trainees,... and so on.
If you take a look at my DB, you will find I have have MANY queries made. Is there an easier way to find this kind of information?
I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I am trying to get a percentage of two numbers and the expression is not comming out right. This is the expression:
In a report, I need to calculate the percentage of clients that respond "Yes" to a question on a survey. I need to create a query that will return the count of the number of "Yes" responses, and the number of total responses. For example, if 10 clients complete the survey, and seven respond "Yes", I need the 2 fields in the query to be 7 and 10. So far, I have only been able to do this using multiple queries. Thank you.
For several days now, I have been trying to write an expression, in a report, to get a percentage. I am new to Access so I don't completely get it yet. This is the expression I wrote (only works sometimes):
=[pathjbo50]/([pathjbo50]+[pathcol50]+[pathpp50])
This expression only works when all the fields are populated. If any of the fields are empty, I get nothing.
In a query I am calculating a percentage from two fields in a table. ever, if the values are 0 and 0 then the percentage comes up as an error (#Error). How do I use the nz function in this case to convert error into zero and where in the query do I put the expression?
Hope everything is well! I have a query result for a period time to return group by of a list of Work Orders and sum the work hours charged to each work order. How do I also get a PERCENTAGE of the hours charged to each Work Order within that period. For example, my query result have the following data. Is there a Percentage FUNCTION to calculate the PERCENTAGE so it can give me the result automatically?
In the example below, the PERCENTAGE work hours of Work order 71820017 is approximately 18% (resulting from 80/440); of 71820100 is 23% and of 71820200 is 59%? How do I get these 3 PERCENTAGE results in an additional colum in this query result or I need another query and please advise HOW TO?
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.
