Forms :: Preventing Decimals From Rounding In Form Display
Mar 26, 2013
I have created an Access 2007 database that uses a form for data entry. While the data is stored on the table exactly as entered, the data entry form rounds up and only displays the whole number.
In the properties of that form field, I have the format as fixed, with decimal places as set to 1 and is visible. However, the number still rounds. What do I need to do differently to make the number display as entered on my data entry form?

I have created a sub form in a form that allows data entry for order details. I have a column that holds order amounts that automatically rounds up or down, and I don't want this. I have examined the back end table properties for this particular field, and the number field is set to general.

I have a field that holds a unit price. I can't use currency as the data type because the currency type is different for each client. I have another field that specifies the currency type for each department. Up to now I've been using a double format with a 2 decimal places. We now need to increase the decimal places to 4 but don't necessarily want to see all four places if only 2 are required - 1.5000 against 1.50. However if I make the decimals as auto, if I have 1.50 it rounds to 1.5.
Any other way to give a bit of flexibility to this?
Thanks.

For some reason I cannot enter decimal values without the number rounding up or down. I've already set it to 'Number' and 'double' and have also tried 'Fixed' set to 2 decimal places. Right now the only way it works is if I set it to 'Text'. However I need to do some calculations with these values eventually.
What's strange is I have another table in the same database that is NOT rounding and is working just fine.

I have a field that sums pounds. I need to convert this to tons (rounded to the nearest 3 decimals), then multiplied by $67.50. This will calculate a fee payment.
This is what I have now:
Code:
=Round(Sum([Hazardous_Waste]/2000*67.5),3)
The total pounds is 2675.
After dividing by 2000, Access generates a number of 1.3375. It rounds 1.3375 to 1.337 which generates an incorrect final total. Not sure how to alter this to round properly.

In my database (access 2007) I have code similar to this
Dim Ulaz As String, Izlaz As String, UkKol As String, UkFin As String
and at the end of the code I have this
Me.NC = UkFin / UkKol
Me.NC respresents avaerage price.
If for result I have 0.498 value, I would like for that value to be shown as 0.50. In another words, it must be rounded to two places.
How can I do that in VB? That value will be passed to NC field on Form, however..

I have 2 controls on a form cmbFed and cmbState both are formatted as fixed with decimal places as 2. They display the correct values. cmbFed = .18 cmbState = .06 When I add a new control to add the 2. =[cmbFed]+[cmbState] result is .18.06 instead of .24 It looks like it is treating them as text. I even tried to do it in code Me.text639 = Me.cmbFed + Me.cmbState with the same results. It must be something simple I am missing a format for text639?

I have a form to input data into a table1. On the form I have a combo box to read from a next table exchange rate to input into the table1. Field in Tablet for the exchange rate is set to Field size double, Format currency, and decimals 6.
I am unable to set the field size on the form to read the 6 decimals. The combo box is set to Currency decimal 6. I tried General Number and it still only shows only one decimal.

I have Table for rooms called Rooms, and the data in the table is roomNumber which is in the format Letter and two Digit number, so A01 would be dorm building A and room building 1, and I then have a seperate row named roomType that is either VIP or Semi Private.
Now I am creating a form where a worker will put in there scheduledCheckin date and scheduledCheckout date and it will be written to the Bookings table. I would like this form however to take the dates they have put in, as well as room type (Semi-Private or VIP, and assign them an available room that isn't booked at all in that range) or list all available rooms for that range of time and they could then just select the room. I would rather it automatically assigns an available room based on room type though because this check in system is going to have about 500 rooms.
I've attached a link for what I have so far. I know how to make a query to list anyone who has booked rooms over that date, but need one for just preventing booking the same room.

In the tables I see the numbers 10.000 which is correct, in the query is see 10.000 again correct, however the list box on the form only shows 10.00?

I have a tblParts that has data in this format 200200.0100 (these are bin numbers). I have created a form with a bound field (field name on the form is BinNo) that goes back to the tblParts. I need to be able for the user to enter on the form the Bin number as it appears above. However at the moment it is dropping my decimal and is only keeping the 200200 portion of the Bin Number. If I enter the bin number correctly into the table it accepts the correct format of 200200.0100. Can someone take a look at the form and the field BinNo to tell me what I may have missed.
Keep in mind that the goal of the database is to enter the bin number into the form and run a query that creates a new table. There is also a delete table button since the data in the form will change for each blueprint document created.
I am attempting to attach a practice db for you to see what I have done but I have not had much success with this in the past. Thanks in advance for your help.

I need to have a field on my form to accept the user keying in the number in this fashion: 200200.1234 but as I currently have it set it accepts only the 200200 portion of this part number. I am a beginner so I am sure this is an easy question for some of the pros out there.
As a footnote the table design has the bin no. as data type - text and I added an input mask of 000000.0000;0; the field on the form is a combo box. Maybe that will make a clear picture for you.
Thanks in advance for your assistance.

I am attempting to make a system where the lifespan of baskets in a production process can be tracked. In order to do this I am looking to create a form to input when a new basket is introduced.Each basket has a 'disc' associated with a number on (BasketNumber), however these discs are reused once the basket breaks which is making it more difficult.
I have a form (Add_New_Basket) which feeds into a table (Active_Basket); what I am trying to do is make sure that a new basket cannot be introduced with the same disc number as an active basket. The way I am trying to determine which baskets are active is that I have an end date, that is filled in once the basket has been scrapped.
Therefore I am trying to set my Add_New_Basket form to restrict me entering a new record with BasketNumber 999, if there is already a BasketNumber 999 in the table with 'EndDate' null. If there is BasketNumber 999 and EndDate is dd/mm/yyyy then it can create the entry.My form Add_New_Basket has fields ID (which is hidden), BasketNumber, StartDate (=Date()).My table has fields: ID, BasketNumber, StartDate, EndDate

I have a form for the user to enter new units which arrive in our warehouse, one field in DOM (Date of manufacture) which cannot be a date in the future obviously but could be todays' date. there is table level input mask to make the date 00/00/0000.i have this code on the form:
Private Sub dom_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
If Me.DOM > Date Then
MsgBox "Please enter a Valid DOM", vbInformation, "Check again !!"
Cancel = True
End If
End Sub
which doesn't accept any date whether it's today, last week, last year or in the future!

First thing: I have a navigation form that leads through 5 subforms on my database. One is a data entry form, the rest are various informative forms with explanations, images and other text mainly. In this scenario, a user enters data on the first tab but doesn't finish it. The user clicks over to check up on some guidelines on the other tabs and then comes back to the first tab for find that all of the fields he entered reset and he lost everything.
Is there a way of preventing this from happening? Plan A would be for me to allow the user to switch around tabs without losing the data he or she entered into textboxes or dropdowns. Plan B would be for me to have a popup that appears when he tries to switch tabs that warns him of data loss and that he should save before moving tabs.
PS: One other thing: I have the standard Access wizard search button on my first tab that allows the user to search records. This works well, but I'd like for the search box to close immediately after a search turns up a matching record. This seems odd, but the users requested it because manually closing the search box after every search can add up to a lot of wasted time.

Hi all,
I've got a database with a members table and an events table and a participation table which is like an 'intermediary table' which just has fields for MemberID_fk and EventID_fk.
The form at the moment has a combo box for Members and a combo box for events. This works well but the problem with it is that there is no safeguards to prevent a member from joining the same event many time.
Ideally i'd like for the combo box of events to be updated once the member's been selected to only include events the member has not signed up for.
If anyone's got any suggestions i'd love to hear them. The only constraint i have is that this has to be prevented when it is entered in the form.
Cheers,
Joe

A form displays information on a construction site in various text boxes. I want to enable the user to change this information but not until a save button is pressed.
Now I have the problem that as soon as I change the value of a text box, the data in the database is updated.
Is there a way to prevent these updates but still get the text fields to be linked to the attributes of a table?

I need to create a SIMPLE solution for Retail rounding. Below are is an Example of Detail lines in a DataSheet Form that represents the price for an Item.
QuantityXUnitRate = Quantity * (UnitRate*Pct)
$14.0049 = 1 * $10.53 * 1.33
$14.0049 = 1 * $10.53 * 1.33
I need the price to end with a Currency Decimal of $$$$$.x9 for all prices. The example above rounds to $14.00 for with 2 digit rounding or if I use 3 digit rounding $14.01.
I need it to be rounded with a .x9 either $13.99 or $14.09 or to the nearest .x9.
Subsequently, every Detail line we calculate in the Datasheet needs to end with an .x9 for Retail Pricing.
There are thousands of different UnitRates (costs), and the Pct (Percent of Markup) can also change.
Additionally, I sum the Detail Lines and the Totals need to match. One of the Sum Fields is Calculated as
=Sum(IIf([taxable]=True,Nz([QuantityXUnitRate]),0))
This ends up Totaling to $28.01 which is wrong for 3 Digit rounding of the Detail Line, because $14.01+ $14.01 = $28.02.
I also tried Rounding
=Sum(IIf([Taxable]=False,Nz(Round([QuantityXUnitRate]),0),0))
And after that I still got the wrong amount $28.00.
I tried this with 2 instead of 0 with no difference
=Sum(IIf([Taxable]=False,Nz(Round([QuantityXUnitRate]),2),2)),
I know one of 2 refers to the Nz and the other to Rounding, but I not sure which is which at this point.
If the last significant digit need to be .09 or .19 or .29 or .39 or .49 or.59 or.69 or.79 or.89 or.99 then everything should Sum up correctly or I hope.
Here is another Example
QuantityXUnitRate = Quantity * (UnitRate*Pct)
$14.0049 = 1 * $10.53 * 1.33
$22.2642 = 1 * $16.74 * 1.33
However, I get the correct Detail Line of $14.01 and $22.26
and using =Sum(IIf([taxable]=False,Nz([QuantityXUnitRate]),0)) same as above, I get the correct amount $36.27.
How to make a with a SIMPLE solution where all Decimals end up with a .x9 and then I'll tackle the Sum if necessary.

Hi
Hoping someone can help me here. I have a form which is maximised on startup which also has the min/max and close button disabled. What i'd like to do is also prevent the user from restoring the form to ie. click the restore button which then makes the form smaller as i'd like the form to permanently remain maximised.
I'm not sure if this is possible, but if not is there a way to size the form to fit the height and width of the screen as if it was maximised regardless of the screen resolution the user is using.
Any help would be appreciated.

What I would like to do is create a list box that will only display the information from another form that is related to the current form.So I have a form call Equipment Catalog and that form is related to Equipment features 1 to M relationship and the Equipment Features is related to a Features form M to 1.
So what I want to do is display all the related equipment features in a listbox that is related to the current PK of that form.So if there is only one feature on one form the list box will only display that one item however is there is 6 features on another it will display all 6.I have been trying SQL and Queries but I still can't get it to work.

Hello again,
I have three questions this time 'round:
1. I'm in need of some way of preventing a user from opening form B unless he has entered information in form A.
Right now it is possible to open form B without entering data in form A (form A being the date/time info and form B being the case technical info) due to which a record is created for clientnr 0 (which should be a non existing client). Querying for clientnr 0 from time to time and deleting those records is easy enough, but who knows what kind of relevant data could be stored accidentally in a record that doesn't belong there.
This happens by the way, even though referential integrity is enforced throughout the dbase. Maybe I should say, because of that. I want to keep it that way of course to prevent orphans roaming around. But having orphans for clientnr. 0 is also not a good idea.
2. What is the wiser thing to do: keep all information concerning one case for one client (date/time info per case, techinfo per case, maybe even products sold info per case, payment info per case) in one table and have the data needed for each thing entered in seperate forms, or have all data split up into seperate tables like I have now. One for clients, one for dates and times, one for the technical info for that case etc.... ?
It is starting to seem a bit ehrm... useless to have all that data for one case floating around seperate tables. I don't know... it seems so much more complex (having to create multiple relations, multiple PK's per table etc.).
Where do I draw the line? For example the image attached (relationship2.jpg): now I have one PK in the table holding the clients (clientnr), two PK's in the table holding the case date/time info (clientnr and casenumberdatetimeinfo), three PK's in the table holding the techinfo (clientnr, casenumberdatetimeinfo and casetechinfonr). And what's next? Four PK's in the table holding the sold productsinfo? Five PK's in the table holding the invoice info? And what about the relations between those tables? Right now I can still comprehend.... but when I start thinking ahead, I'm starting to get dizzy. So some advice on this would really be highly appreciated.
3. Which build up of the relations between the tables in the dbase is better? The one in relationship.jpg or the one in relationship2.jpg?

I have validation logic that runs to test whether certain fields are inputted properly etc on my form. I call these methods in the Before_Update of each form. But How do i actually STOP the update from happening? OR how do i stop the form from being closed?
Right now, I just give all these warnings but the save still happens!

While I was trying to test one of my forms (which was NOT working and I had to totally redesign it), I somehow created a bunch of stores in my Store Information table...some with no names, some with the first letter of an existing store, and there was even a duplicate of the store which is creating a problem now because some products exist in Store 1A and others exist in Store 1B.
I've created a query to identify the wayward products and am changing those. I'll delete that store then.
My issue is...can I set it so that the ONLY place a new store can be created is in the Store Information Input form? That if someone makes a typo when entering products, it doesn't create a new store?
