Forms :: Decimal Entry Rounds Down - Want To Round Up
Mar 20, 2015
On one of my Access forms, a specific textbox rounds a value down if the user enters the decimal. The table field bound to it, is a long integer as to not accept decimal values.
For example = user entered .5 rounds to 0
user entered 10.5 round to 10
I would like this to behave in the opposite manner and always round up, but how??? Since users are estimating their hours for specific tasks, I would prefer any decimal value to round to the next integer. I have tried many adjustments to get this working to no avail. I did come across something about key press for decimal and to disallow user to even enter a decimal in this textbox. I would be fine with that solution as well, but could not implement as seen.
I'm setting up a table that has several percentage fields, for which I want to display 3 decimal places in datasheet view (and later in forms and reports). I've tried to set up the fields in a variety of ways, but either I don't get a percent format, or I get 3 decimals with 2 zeros at the end. For example, 73.913% shows up as 73.900%. This, of course, causes problems in calculations, so that for a total percent field I'm getting things like 99.900% instead of 100.000%. I've tried various combinations of formatting properties for these fields (Field Size, Format, Decimal Places, and Scale) but I have yet to hit on the right one to simply display the correct value in the format of a percent.
Hi, I have this query and I would like to have the avg display with only 2 decimal points. This is my SQL and I think I have to use this code but I'm not sure.
FORMAT(CountOfStudent Attended,'.00')
If I ad this after the SELECT statement my query will not work. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks!

This works
SELECT [Attendance for Avg].CRN, Avg([Attendance for Avg].[CountOfStudent Attended]) AS [AvgOfCountOfStudent Attended] FROM [Attendance for Avg] GROUP BY [Attendance for Avg].CRN;
Problem: I want to "round" (to 2 decimal places) numbers 1-5 down and 6-9 up. For example:
1.915 = 1.91 1.916 = 1.92
I know this is completely screwy but I have to match numbers up to a purchasing system that seems to be doing just that.
I've researched rounding in Access a lot and I understand Bankers rounding (that won't work), I understand Int() and Fix() both don't do what I need. I've something about rounding half down (which is what I think I need) or Floor which I don't quite understand.
I have about ten append queries to group various financial data to one main table.
I have used the round function (iff (Round(Nz([FIN_data]),2)) in the queries to round the original data into 2 decimal places but there is still one or two lines exceeding 2 decimal places.
What is the better approach to have only 2 decimal places for all append data?
Hi. I have urgent report to send and thefield must be numeric and read 999999.99 but as integer or even double, it won't do it. Double with 2 decimal places set, gives 999999.00
I am working on creating an access database for tracking physical assets linked to locations. I need to make a combo box list to show items other than the current location of the asset. Basically I need it to refer to last enery of the user and define the new possible entries. so we have a unique relationship between location and asset. The assets and location will always remain fixed and there is never going to be any addition. I am creating a web form so that it can be uploaded into sharepoint.
I have set the decimal place property of a text box to 2. Then when i run a query that puts data in that box, the deci places are still well over 2..It lokks to be over riding it, how do I stop this?
I have a pivot chart that has site locations, and hours on the bottom, and then count of records with each site. Which is how many people used this site during this time for each bar. My problem is when I generate my pivot chart, every single time I have to fix the scale on the right hand side because it has decimal points in it. They only appear when I add dates/times to it.I want to give this to my boss that has access runtime, so all he has to do is click the button to get the chart and then print or send it off. How do I get rid of those decimal points when the report is generated?
Need a little help with rounding up. In A2K I have a form with a textbox that displays a security deposit. Security deposit is calculated by rounding the payment to the next $25 increment, hence a payment of 324.53 should have a security deposity of $325.00, but a payment of $325.01 should have a security deposit of $350.00. The code I am using for a datasource for txtSecurity deposit usually works correctly, but for this payment ($324.53) it rounds to $350.00. Here is the code..
=(([txtPayment]25)*25+[txtSecDepRndTo])
txtSecDepRndTo holds the $25 incremental value.
Incidentally, if the payment is $324.49 my code rounds the Security Deposit to $325.00 as it should.
In a query I have placed functions that work fine. Now I needed to round a currency number to the nearest $10. ex. 224.49 would be 220.00. I used round(xxxxxxx,-2). this gives me an error. positive 2 works fine. What's the deal? thanks for anyone who can help me. :)
I track reports in a database. I have a date field [Approval_Date] in the database table. I want to review the reports after they have been approved for 6 months to see if the actions fixed the problem, so I created a query based on the table and used the code "6-Month Review Date: [Approval_Date]+180". This works great except that our meetings are always on Wednesday. So, is there a way to modify my code so that it calculates the 6-Month Review Date as 180 days after the Approval_Date, but then rounds up to the next Wednesday?
Please help me with the round function. I want .5 to round to 1. Here is an example of my data: (18+18+18+20)/4 = 18.5 rounds to 18. I want it to round to 19.
I used the following expression: RoundACT Composite Score: Round((([Column1]+[Column2]+[Column3]+[Column4])/4),0)
I've happily been working with my new switchboard only to find it tells me I am limited to 8 entries. How does one get round this - create switchboards which link to switchboards, different pages of switchboard...I've got a bit lost and would much aprreciate any advice.
My goal with this formula is to produce a number of months remaining (rounding down) by subtracting today's date from the anniversary date. The Round function I put in there seems to not work as the result is the same when I remove it.
Another thing I am also trying to accomplish is having the date pushed forward if todays date is greater than the anniversary date. In this instance, I tried adding 12 months to get it back on track. So say the anniversary date is july 4th 2015 and todays date is aug 4th 2015, well thats gonna show negative 1 but if I add 12 it should bring it to 11 months remaining -which would make sense because the anniversary month and day is fixed but the years just get pushed.
I am creating a simple data entry form wherein the user will enter the product id and on change the product description and retail price must be displayed.
When the order quantity is entered, the total cost need to be calculated. I am able to do this using DLookUp and simple multiplication.
However, after doing the above, I need another row to appear so that I can accomplish the same for another product.
I have a report and I am trying to Round Up the calculated field SumOfAccrual Amount to 2 decimal places. I am attaching a screenshot of my report and output.
