I have a text box in a form that is producing a number from the query that the form is based on.In another Text Box i want to show the Value of the first Text Box multiplied by 3 because i am going to hide the first text box to only show the calculated number.
At the moment i have this in the control source of the text box [CountOfJobID]*3 but all i am getting is #####...I have set the format of the text box to General Number.
I'm trying to multiply the values of two number fields together, but it is not working. I used to be able to do this easily in earlier versions of Access. Here's the problem:
On the form, I need field A x field B to appear in field C. I've tried this as an expression in the build event function on the control, but it is not working. My code reads as follows: = (field A) * (field B).
I'm scanning serial numbers in a field, but the results always start with an S...like S123456789 , S107432567 etc.. how can I eliminate the S and make this field numeric?Access 2007 being used.
I have a number field in my subform that's autoupdated but I'd like it to display "weeks" beside the number without trying to store it, is this possible?
Code: Private Sub Text74_AfterUpdate() Me.Text1280 = Environ("UserName") If Me.Text74 = "MACGH" Then Me.Text89 = "PureGene" Me.Text85.Value = Date End If End Sub
Is there a way to insert a line of code in the above that would add the next number to a 2 specific textbox's (Text103 and Text509)? Maybe if a table was created with all possible values and then the code would reference that table. There is probably a better way though. An example would be, if record 1 is A1 (in Text103) and 1 (in Text509), when record 2 is entered Text103 would be A2 and Text509 would be 2. Record 3 would be A3 and Text 509 3.
I know this is simple, but I feel like Simple Jack this morning. I'm trying to take the text from a drop-down menu and use that as part of the form caption. However, the text is not what is bound, the ID number is.
I have designed a database where there are several forms that pull information from the back end table and only one used to input data. I have changed the table to allow "Year Group" to be text so that I can input "R" for our Reception. On the input form this is fine, however, on the two forms that are used to compile reports it is saying "R" isn't an allowed value.
I have attached the front end file, back end table and the two affected tables are frm_Report Builder and frm_Analysis Builder. I'm only a beginner and I'm sure this is easy but I can't seem to find where these forms say this should only be a number
I just started my project database on my subject ITM4. My Database is entitled PCExpress Inventory System. I would like to know how to input (Text) in a Field where the Data Type is (Number) just like the North Wind.
I have a form containing 4 text Boxes txt1, txt2, txt3 and txt4
I want
txt1 show records from table empDetail having age between 18 to 25 txt2 show records from table empDetail having age between 26 to 35 txt3 show records from table empDetail having age between 36 to 45 txt4 show records from table empDetail having age between 46 to 55
Is there a way to create a text default value for a control box that is bound to a number field?
I have a combo box that is bound to an auto number ID but displays text. Bound column = 1, Number of column = 2, Column width = 0; 4cm
I want to use sample text in all my controls (and I know an alternative would be to use the control tip text). In a text box it is easy, I just set the default value to that value and then a before_update event considers the text box empty if the field value is the default value (e.g. Name text box has: Name... as default value). This doesn't work with my combo box since the bound column is a number. I could create a value in the table but then it would appear in the drop box and it is messy.
I'm trying to create a database for a construction company, as an experiment more than anything, and my problem is this:
I need to create a set of identical records in the table "buildings" based on the information entered into a text box by a user on the form for registering a new project. I want each record to be identical except for the "plot number" field, which I want to start at one and increase to the number of buildings defined in the text box.
"Projects" is one table and "Plots" is in the other.
DLookup function. (this is for a stamp collection database).
On my form ("InventoryInput") I have a text box called "Catalog" for a numeric entry and a text combo box for selecting a "Country" in drop down list.
I want to query a table called "CatNameList" to get the "StampName" of the item (based on the entries of Catalog and Country) and populate that name in the text box. The fields in this table are called "StampName", "CatNumb" & "CName" respectively.
I have successfully placed the following expression in the control source of that textbox and able to populate the StampName I need based solely on the catalog number alone.
That express is : =DLookUp("StampName", "CatNameList", "CatNumb = Form![Catalog]")
So it will populate the "StampName" data to match the "Catalog" number entry just fine.
However, I need to add a second layer to incorporate the Country.
Example : There is a catalog "1" for "USA", and a catalog "1" for "Canada" but both have different "StampName".
I have been attempting to get that second piece added with no success. Here is the expression I have been trying to get to work :
Right now, the text box is just blank with the above expression. I thought it may be because there was no match found, but I have triple checked to ensure I have the spelling correct on the country name in both places.
Basically, I just need the dlookup to take the "catalog" and "country" off the form and match it to the "CatNameList" table fields of "CatNumb" and "CName" to give me "StampName" field back on the form.
Date of Birth (DOB) field etc. in one program are text - how do I make another file with the same data into number fields for Date of Birth field etc? When I copy data to file that has number fields the 09252004 is changed to 9252004. Can I get reports with the correct Date of Birth in them by moving data from text file to number file?
There is data entered monthly in file and formula has been set up for January, February etc as ---quarter: Int(([month]-1)/3)+1. I would like formula for the fiscal year for April to be counted as month 1, May - month 2, June as month 3, July as month 4, August as month 5, Sept as month 6, October as month 7, Nov as month 8, Dec as month 9, Jan as month 10, Feb as month 11 and March as month 12.
I am try to do all in one queries which has two queries imbedded into.
"SELECT Filter_ID, Channel, SpeedBands, Filter_Channel, Filter_type FROM (SELECT [Tbl_Lookup_Channels].[ID] AS Channel, [Tbl_Lookup_SpeedBand].[ID] AS SpeedBand FROM Tbl_Lookup_Channels, Tbl_Lookup_SpeedBand) LEFT JOIN (SELECT [Site_ID] AS Filter_ID, [Channel] AS Filter_Channel, [Type] AS Filter_SpeedBand FROM Tbl_SiteResults WHERE Site_ID=" & ID &") ON ((SpeedBand = Filter_Speedband) AND (Channel = Filter_Channel)) GROUP BY Filter_ID, Channel, SpeedBands, Filter_Channel, Filter_type HAVING Filter_Channel Is Null AND Filter_type Is Null ORDER BY Channel, SpeedBands;"
If is not work at all it is just asking that it is invalid join to the main query
Does anyone know how to count a field and multiply the answer automaticaly.. so if i have a count function on number of names repeated in a table via nameID the result would be presented in the new query with how many times name repeated multiplyed by a defualt set number.instead of name repleated 3 times, it be 30 times..using a query. any help appreciated..thanks
Occasionally, staff may just want all incidents (records) to be shown for the selected StudentSurname and so, just select the surname and leave the date fields blank.
i tried the following: Field :Date of Incident Crirteria: [Forms]![frmSearchStudent&Date]![cboStartDate] And [Forms]![frmSearchStudent&Date]![cboEndDate] Or: [Forms]![frmSearchStudent&Date]![cboStartDate] Is Null And [Forms]![frmSearchStudent&Date]![cboEndDate] Is Null
then when i tested this by leaving the date fields blank and selecting a valid student surname it simply returned all incidents (records) for ALL students not the selected one.
is it possible to achieve this? if so, could someone please help!
Hi. I'm new to Access and I wonder if someone could help me with this problem I am having while constructing a database. We need to create a database of reservations to a program we offer. We will need to store the quantity of reservations per person. What we needed to do is multiply the quantity of reservations by the value of each reservation and get a 3rd field with the final amount. So we need a field with the result of the multiplication of the quantity of reservations by the value of each reservation, which is a fixed amount. I'm having problems getting access to do this, I get an "error" message on the resulting field. Can somebody help me with this?
If CIS = False Then CIS_Payment = "£0.00" Else CIS_Payment = "£20.00" End If
which works ok but what i want to do but do not know the correct way/syntax is:
If CIS = False Then CIS_Payment = "£0.00" Else CIS_Payment = "Labour_Total*18/100" End If
Where CIS_Payment and Labour_Total are currency fields, and CIS is a checkbox updated using an update query with the same info as detailed in another table (Couldnt get the conditions to work referencing the checkbox in the other table, so duplicated the box in both tables and used a query to sync)
I have the time per item, and I would like to multiply that by the quantity, so I can tell the total time. But I cant find in access how to * data/time by a number.
Hi, I have a problem, I want to split up form input into several rows but I don't know how. Alright here's the deal: I have a textbox in a form were I write down all the ipaddresses for one computer and all the addresses end up in the same row in the same field in the table, I want the addresses to end up in different rows but in the same field, how do I do?
I am using a template database that I downloaded from the Microsoft Access template website and have been modifying it and adding new forms and tables etc. I have used the forms wizard to create a number of new forms to edit a number of the tables. The forms are "split forms".I can't seem to get many of the forms to stay the size that I set them to! They seem to have a mind of their own and often when I think that I have sized them correctly, I then open the form and they display in full screen mode or larger!
My question is that can we do multiplication of data of two columns and result is automatically displayed in third columns in datasheet view.? Is it possible ?
XXXXX-X (x are digits), for example - 4 01-1, 4 01-2...
I need find field with text beginning 4 01 and max of last symbol. Last symbol +1, then again convert to text field. For example: for example 4 01-1, 4 01-2,4 01-3 - must find 4 01-3 , then 3+1=4 and 4 01-4 format again to text.
Please, help me with formatting. Thank You in advance.
