I have a field on my Report called Revenue. It is used in a calculation and there is a calculated field called Profit. Revenue-Cost=Profit. That all works.
The only thing that is wrong is that the Revenue field displays its numbers like this:
0.7
12.43
4.3
0
etc.
i.e. not formatted for currency. But I don't get the currency option under Format. It is based on a Query and this Query is based on a Linked Table.
Any suggestions on how to get it formatted as currency while still having the calculated field working?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI do have a module to extract a number from a string :
Public Function ExtractedValue(strSent) As Double
If IsNull(strSent) Then
Exit Function
End If
Dim strTemp As String
Dim intLoop As Integer
[code]....
My problem is that the string I do have is like:
19.0 EA
195 PAC
42 M
150 L
the problem is that when the number is like 19.0 EA the value I get is 190, in reality it should be 19. The rest is fine as there are no dot's.
looked around but could not find the answer.
i have a text box that might or might not contain text and number data. an example of the data in the text box might be;
bob roberts, 17/03/2006, aged 23
what i would like is some VB code that would:
check anywhere in the text box for number characters that are 8 characters in length with a comma at the end [12345678,] as in the first example. and change this to 12/34/5678,
bob roberts, 17032006, aged 23
would become 'on lost focus'

anybody any idea how to do this?

how I can convert the first column to show the number? I used the expression below, but it does not convert anything with a letter or a 0
Expr1: Val([SPPC TEST]![JULY_ACCRUAL_ADJ_X])
Iff(fico>600,1,0) as g,
I found fico is a string in access table. so the above does not work.
How to fix this problem
Thank you very much.
Hi!
I have two tables Atable and BTable and both have a field called AcctNo. In Atable, it is type of Number and in BTable, it is type of Text. When I do a join with these two tables
select * from Atable, BTable where Atable.AcctNo=Btable.AcctNo
I get error saying "type mismatch".
My question here is: How can I convert a type from number to string or string to number in my sql statement?
Thanks,
Aijun.
I have a query which runs fine, however one of the outputs is a calculated field and i use the Format(someValue,"Fixed") method of specifying the format for the % Change .Here is the query
Code:
SELECT tblTempBearsWeek3.SymbolCode AS [Short Ticker], tblTempBullsWeek3.SymbolCode AS [Long Ticker], tblTempBearsWeek3.[Week 3 Date], tblTempBearsWeek3.Short, tblTempBullsWeek3.Long, tblTempBearsWeek3.[Short Week 3 Close], tblTempBullsWeek3.[Long Week 3 Close],
[code]...
The problem is that the % Change calculated field for some reason comes out as a String. i know this because when I try and sort on that column, it sorts it as if it is text and not a number value i.e. it doesn't put it in Ascending order.
I have a table and i want to have the id of this table as :
ST_1
ST_2
ST_3
I mean ST_automatic number. I want to know how i can create it. Is it possible to set the first value of auto number field in ms access? Also it is ms a ccess web database?
I need to run a query that converts a 19 digit number stored in a Short Text field to a hex string
Example of the string is "3310854670615838865" the result should look like "2DF284C801000091"
I am looking to find if a field contains a number and then build a case statement depending on which number is found. The field will contain data just like this:
Quote:
Repaired frequency response and grounding issues. Replaced 2 Hybrids, capacitors, and connectors. Tested MER/BER and operation to specs.
Here is my code that did not work:
Code:
If Me.txt_work_comm1 Like "*Hybrid" Then
'Sets up auto priced based on number of hybrids entered
'1 hybrid
If Me.txt_work_comm1 Like "*1" Then
strCriteria = "repair_item = 'Charter RF Amplifier Repair + 1 Hybrid' AND profile_types = 'Alpha'"
[Code]....
To Summarize:
1. I need to find if the word "Hybrid" or "Hybrids" is in the field
2. Then I need to know how many to determine a price
I have about 150k rows that look like this
SHORT_DESCRIPTION
unable to view
unable to send out some stuff
what is going on
Is it possible for access to query through each field, and tell me the total number of occurence for each word? In this small example, the output would be:
Unable 2
to 2
view 1
send 1
out 1
some 1
stuff 1
what 1
is 1
going 1
on 1
Is this possible?
I have a form that takes input to the first, indexed, field from a barcode reader (and keyboard at a pinch). The data coming in has always been numeric so I have several checks in place to ensure it is numberic (field specification) and also that it lays in a predefined range. All works well! I've now been asked to enable this to work with a single letter prefix e.g. T1234567.
As there are many forms which use this same field I'd like to keep it numeric and as the prefix won't change I can add it later using a query. Is there a way to programatically strip the first letter from the string and use CLng() to convert to numeric using the on entry Event Procedure? All my other validation is here but I can't see a way to do this. Failing that, can I use an unbound text box to take the entry and set the index field?
I have an expression that converts a string to positive/negative number. It seems to be working fine, however, it doesn't convert "00000000001}" to -10. It shows as 10.
This is the formula that I am using in my query:
PJUNAccrual: IIf(Right([PJ_ACCRUAL_ADJ_X],1) Between "J" And "S",-1,1)*(Val([PJ_ACCRUAL_ADJ_X])/IIf(IsNumeric([PJ_ACCRUAL_ADJ_X]),100,10)+(IIf(Right([PJ_ACCRUAL_ADJ_X],1) Between "A" And "I",(Asc(Right([PJ_ACCRUAL_ADJ_X],1))-64)/100,0))+(IIf(Right([PJ_ACCRUAL_ADJ_X],1) Between "J" And "S",(Asc(Right([PJ_ACCRUAL_ADJ_X],1))-73)/100,0)))*100
Have a strings like this
Code:
dsa;hwq;67;dk;71c
Code:
uqiea;762c;iyh
Is there any possibilites to write a function which find number in string, even if some part (between ";" and ";") has number and text (like 762c)?
if there is number in string then function is true
I have been trying to convert string into double number format. I am running a SQL query in VBA that returns a double number format; however my understanding with SQL queries in VBA is that they return string only. The results are showing up perfectly fine when I run the query in the query editor; however when I try using the returned value in further calculations in VBA I keep getting a "Type Mismatch" error.

Hi all,
I was looking for some help. I am trying to setup a table with a field for web address. People are entering www.website.com etc however I need them to make sure it starts with http:// Is their any way I can put validation on the field to make sure that this is entered? Or maybe I could use an input mask?
Any suggestions would be gratefully recieved.

I have a column called CPU_S within a table called workstation that contains sample text like P111 933
I want to use the update command to search the CPU_S column for entries that contain this in there string then add P3 to a column called CPU_N
So far I have the code below but I don't know how to search a column entry for a specific string within a string. Can this be done and how?
UPDATE workstations SET CPU_N = "P4"
WHERE CPU_S = ;
I have a form [IUDATA]
I have a add record button.
I have a date field [DATEIN]
I have a text field [DRPNO]
If the [DPRNO] field is empty, I would like the user to have the [DPRNO] field be automatically populated after the user enters a date.
I'd like the format of [DPRNO] to be "dpr YY-XXX"
Where:
YY is the year of the [DATEIN] field and
XXX is number of records in that year.
So for example, if it was the 4th record with a 2013 date the [DPRNO] would be dpr 13-004.
I have an Access2007/SQL Server 2012 system with 20 users for an insurance company. The company does most of its business via a network of vehicle dealers around the country. If someone comes in to buy a motorcycle, boat, or recreational vehicle at a dealership they need insurance to take it home, and our dealers send the quotes to us.
The dealers, in turn, receive payment from us each month for their efforts. Some are paid a % commission on the premium, some are paid for each quote they send regardless of whether the policy actually sells or not, and some are paid a set amount per sold policy. (Yes, that is relevant information!)
We already have reports that tally the amounts due each dealer based on their payment scheme, but last month our bookkeeper had to write about 650 checks manually because the check writing is not automated. She'd look at the report, and then enter name, address, and amount (in digits and words) into Quick Books and print the checks from there, a horribly tedious process. I've been asked to print the checks from Access. Basically one click would print all 650 checks.
I've opted to use a Make Table query to move the commissioned dealers amounts to a single location, and then to run two append queries to add the records from those paid per quote and those paid per policy. At the end of the day, one table contains all the information necessary to print the checks...except one.
The check number.
I need a way to sequentially number each record in the new table with a user generated starting point, the first check number.
By the way, the check blanks are on standard letter sized paper, three to a page, with tear-off perforations to separate them, in case that information has any relevance.
I think the best way to accomplish this is from the report itself. I've created a blank field on each record for the check number, and what seems most logical is that the sequential number is generated on print and written back to the table, rather than just generating all the numbers at once. That way, should print ever be interrupted, it will be easy to take up where we left off.
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.
Thank you
