Format Of Field Produces Error In Query Calculation

Apr 24, 2005

I have a query that add up the numeric values in a value list assinged in a combo box in response to each question, the row source for question 15 for exmaple is as follows:

ROW SOURCE: 0;"I have no idea";5;"I indicated that I wouldn’t have time today";0;"Was mentioned early on and then not offered again";5;"The salesperson said the vehicle wasn’t available"

I then run a query that adds together the responses to 3 questions, including question 15, the field in the query appearing as follows:

LS5: ([q14]+[q15]+[q16])

It was working fine but has stopped working, the fault lies with q15, if I take it out it works again. So I looked at the table as I am sure it must be the way it is set up, why it worked before I don't know and I attach a screen shot of how the field is set up in the table, which is no different to q14 and q16.

Anyone got any ideas?

One last thing is that it makes no difference if the fileds contain a number (including zero) or are blank

Forms :: Expression On Click - Event Property Setting Produces Error

Nov 24, 2014

Code:

The expression On Click you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: Procedure declaration does not match description of event or procedure having the same name

Now this is the error message that I am constantly getting from any command button I hit on a certain form. Here is the code of the form.

Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Public inputCSV As String, ORG As String

Private Sub CopyToTableBt_Click()
Debug.Print "Sub Execute calling ImportCSVForConfederation inputCSV="; inputCSV; " ORG="; ORG
ImportCSVForConfederation Me.CSVs, ORG

[Code] ....

I changed the names of the buttons, reconstructed the code under those names, went to the modules and changed names, made sure that a sub o function name is not duplicated in the project... But helas the error is still there. It used to work and suddenly does not work.

Forms :: SUM Function Produces Error From Calculated Function

Jan 30, 2014

I have a project at hand and it's been a predecessor of mine and client has asked me to do some work on it and extend functionality - but I have not really delved into Access before and I have had to worked my way through to this final snag :/

The Main Form has one sub form. This sub form allows the user to add multiple order items i.e. qty, stock, description from records within the system - fairly straight forward.At the last column of each row is the sub total of those particular items i.e.

Qty Unit | Item ID | Total
-----------------------
2 | 1234 | 80.00
------------------------
1 | 43526 | 20.00
------------------------
> | |

So the total is a function of =[Qty Unit] * [Unit Price].Then in the Footer of this SubForm is the Sub Total

=SUM([Qty Unit] * [Unit Price])

All fine and well..... However, the additional functionality kicks in.

Lets add the additional customer_id from the Main Form. Each Item bought is dependent on the customer_id i.e. they get special prices depending on who they are.So a New table is made which has the Item ID and SpecialPriceID (of a table to define as a specialPrice) and the Price linked to this Item and Special Price category. So say that there are two groups of users "wholesale" and "nonwholesale" these would be SP_1 and SP_2 and each client is defined either one of these, and each stock item has a Price for each SP_1 and SP_2. Hopefully I've explained myself there.

Back to the SubForm. So now the Total needs to calculated differently with needed the external customer_id from the Main Form.

Code:

Function CalculateSpecialPrice(ItemID As String, CustomerID As String, Unit As Integer)
Dim SPSelect As String
SPSelect = "SELECT Price FROM [Items_SpecialPrices] WHERE"
SPSelect = SPSelect & " ItemID = '" & ItemID
SPSelect = SPSelect & "' AND SpecialPriceID = (SELECT SpecialPriceID FROM Customers WHERE customer_id = " & CustomerID & ") "

[code]....

its the sub total I just keep on getting #Error on. I have even watched (using alerts) that the correct return variable is the same as the individual rows. This is the equation I used for the SubTotal within the footer.

=SUM(CalculateSpecialPrice([Item ID], [Form]![FormName]![CustomerID], [Qty Unit]))
#Error

Modules & VBA :: Trap The Error If Particular Field Not Get Imported Due To Incorrect Format?

Sep 23, 2014

I am importing .txt files into Access table via VBA code (i.e., not via Saved Import Spec). Is there a way to trap the error if a particular field does not get imported due to incorrect format? When you import via Saved Import Spec and there are errors in formatting, Access generates an 'ImportErrors' table, which tells you which fields could not be updated.

Is there a way to generate a similar 'ImportErrors' table with VBA error checking?

Reports :: Query Based On Linked Tables - Report Produces Multiple Copies Of The Same Record

Jul 22, 2013

My report produces multiple copies of the same record. I know why, but don't know how to fix it.

EmployeeTable.

With a one to many relationship with TrainingTable (via employee PK as FK in trainingtable).

Training table has a one to many relationship with a table called Range.

Report is based on a query that picks up the Employee/Training/Range (range just describes the training unit).

However, If I have more than one range expressed organized a training unit, the report spits out several copies of the Employee record to display all the ranges.

Format Numbers In Query Text Field?

Nov 10, 2005

I have a field in a query that contains numbers and text (text field). The numbers displayed come from a percent calculation and display with many decimals ie, .99898745987245.

HELP!!

Format Field In Make Table Query

Feb 27, 2007

DB Setup:
Table1: I have a table (Vendor) that has 2 fields (# & Name) with # being an AutoNumber. So only Name is being input via a form. I have formatted the autonumber field as 000;(000).
Table2: A table that is populated via form with invoice info etc and vendor number is added through a drop down combo box (which also has the above format on it)
Table3: Similar to table2, with slightly diff info but still vendor #

Query1: Is a make table that consolidates table 1 & 2 via union on like fields (ie vendor #) This make table also has the format from above in its properties field, although when i open the table it makes (Table4) the vendor field is not formatted as i need it. So 3 appears as 3 not 003.

Query2: takes table4 adds some extra info and exports file (as txt or xls)using outputTo & TransferText macro so that it can be loaded into a Hyperion Essbase system

My problem is that although the field value is formatted as 003 in appearance, when i take it to excel it changes back to 3 when i need it to stay as 003. I would like the make table query to also format the tables field as 000. Is the problem with the autonumber in the orig table or is it simply excel being stubborn when i take it there. If i changed the vendor field to text string in the make table would i still be able to link it back to the orig vendor table to get the names etc (ie number field linked to text field??)
Thanks in advance

Queries :: Change Field Format Within A Query

Sep 23, 2013

I'm having a format problem. I have a query (Q1) that, among other things format a date field as YYYYMM (Field1).

I have a second query (Q2) whose data source is Q1.

In Q2 I need to link Q1 to a table but Field1 is being reformatted as text (confirmed by running a make table query).

I want Field1 to be Number format to eliminate a mismatch error.

I know how to change the format of a field in a table using VBA but I cant seem to find a way of changing the format within a query.

How To Set Format Of A Field In Make Table Query

Sep 9, 2015

I have numerous databases that I use with make tables in there, these will often contain Currency values that we need to be set as just General Numbers. We can get it to work in the Query but whenever we run the query, the table it makes always shows up as currency.

Is there a way so that the table created will automatically be just General numbers...

Error Calculation - Need Help!!

Aug 16, 2005

Hi everyone,

What I wan't to do seems very hard, and am wondering if anyone would be able to help out.

Here is what I am trying to do:
First of all, so you somewhat understand my field headers and table, I work for an oil company. I have a form that is based off a table and some of the fields include "Date", "Well Name", "Stock", "Sales", and "Oil". In my table, data is entered for each well every day.

Here is an example of my table:

Date Well Name Stock Sales Oil
08/15/2005 Well1 140 44 25
08/16/2005 Well1 120 35 15
08/15/2005 Well2 150 49 22
08/16/2005 Well2 115 40 30

What I want to do is create a text box on my form and I want it to do a calculation to see if the data is correctly entered. Here is the formula that I want to use in this text box:

If ([Stock] - [StockFromPreviousDay] + [Sales]) = ([Oil])
{
Print "OK"
}
Else
{
Print "Error"
}
I just can't figure out how to get the Stock from the previous day to work with. I have been stuck on this problem for about a week now, so any help would be gratefully accepted.

Thanks,
Chris

Format Field Output Of A Complex Expression In Query.

Feb 8, 2006

I have a simple query to calcualte a profit margin on daily sales lines and I use a quick and dirty expression to calculate the margin in the query so I never need to drill it down further than that level (I don't want to go as far as putting the output into a report as it is only for use when double checking lines for errors which get fixed there and then in the database).

So far so good, however the margin output is a bit awkward to read as I can't seem to format it as a simple percentage. The field properties page doesn't like doing anything with the expression and even typing in a format manually has no effect, so I end up with figures like

36.7768595041322
38.6666666666667
15.6448202959831
etc


the expression i use is:

Margin: IIf([dbo_tbl_sales_invoice_lines.price]=0,"",([dbo_tbl_sales_invoice_lines.price]-[net_cost])/[dbo_tbl_sales_invoice_lines.price]*100)

Is there any way to format this output to show only 1-2 decimal places and be in a proper number format so I can sort them in ascending order properly?
