I have a cross tab query that has field names 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 representing months and a relevance date field with a date.
I have a form and from that form i need to get the value of the last three months from a relevance date field.
I.e relevance may be 01/10/2005 so i would need 3 labels, (labels are already made, but there source needs to be) 10, 9, 8. But the next row may have a relevance date of 01/08/2005 in which case it would be 8,7,6.
im doing a report based on a query (which has a few fields, including KTYPE, EXPIRATION_DATE, OVERAGE). im trying to determine the OVERAGE based on the following conditions:
here are the conditions:
if KTYPE="PO", then OVERAGE:=(EXPIRATION_DATE + 6 months) ie.. KTYPE=PO, OVERAGE:=(01/04/2004 + 6 months) = 07/04/2004
if KTYPE="IAA", then OVERAGE:=(EXPIRATION_DATE + 20 months)
if KTYPE="FA", then OVERAGE:=(EXPIRATION_DATE + 12 months)
and so on and so forth.
I'm very new to Access. What formulas do I use and do I put the formula in the query or the report.
Having some problems with a calculated field on a form. The field came from my table but I typed in the calculation (=[cost_price]+[sale_price]) and it works fine but it wont save to my table so when I run a repot off it doesnt have any of the calculated values because they arent saved in my table??? Can anyone help?
How do I get a field to calculate this formula? I want a script to find the precise current date and from another field find a number and add it to the current date day to make current date + number = date in the future.
For example Field: Total Nights Hired = 2 Field: Date due back = 23/02/07 + 2 = 25/02/07
I am sorry if I did not explain this well enough. I am totally new to databases but need help in my corsework. I am designing a video rental system.
So here is my problem i am semi access savy but i have having trouble with one thing. At work when we make a schedule there are 5 possibilites for how you want to mark your day. I have created a field using text as my parameters since my possibilities include both letters and numbers. At the end of each week I need to create a calcuation only utilizing the number which is 1 to add up the total shifts in the week.
I have tried some IIF statements with no luck. The 5 possiblities are 1, c,r,a,l. Each of the letters stand for something. When the scheduler runs the query he needs to see the letters or the number for each day. But i can't create a properly working calculated field for adding all of the 1's together only. The letters don't need to be added. Any ideas?
Also I have to run a sum for the total of each day at the bottom so I am running into the same problem there if there is any letters in the boxes. Going to a number field is not an option thanks for the help
Below is the code I have written to calculate the arrival and departure times based on the users input on time in the air (tripETE) and on the ground (tripGT). The arrival (txtArrTimeZulu) and departure (txtDepTimeZulu) times are unbound boxes since there is no need to save the information. My problem is when the next leg's ground or air times are entered, it updates the arrival and departure times for all the records to that value; overwritting the previous legs times. What am i missing here? Do i need to open a recordset when opening the form or when entering "TripETE" and "TripGT"?....
I have a report which is a statement. I want to be able to have a field that calculates rent, and minus payments. There are a few rent types, Pro Rated rent, Rent brought forward and rent changed, then there is 1 payment type. I am trying to write the sum a few ways, but have not had success. If rent type i= 1 or 2 or 3 I want it to add, if rent total = 4 I want it to minus.
=Sum(IIf([RentType]=1 Or 2 Or 3,[RentAmount],0))-Sum(IIf([RentType]=4,[RentAmount]))
OK, I figured out how to make a calculation. My big problem now is to have a global field, which would be "beginning balance" and "ending balance". I have 5 employees that share the budget. The budget starts at $1280.00. One employee may buy somthing one day and then another day while another employee may also buy something. I want to be able to put in the amount the employee spent and have it deduct from the balance. But then when I go to another employee and subtract what they spend I want that to subtract from the balance. I want the balance to be visible at all times no matter what employee I am on. Hope this makes sense. I have an attached file that shows how I did it for one employee. Cannot figure how to be able to do it for each employee and just the balance changes. Also I built a subform to be able to show different dates. But the problem again is having it subtract from one global balance. Thank you.
I have the calculation =DateDiff("yyyy",[DOB],Now()) in the Data/Control source properties of a numeric field in a database/form which correctly calculates age in years from a date field DOB. How do I get this field to save to the database? Georgina
My Sales! table has fields [ItemType] and [Price] and VAT! table has [ItemType] and [VATRate].
Both tables has a common field which is [ItemType].
I am trying to make a query which will calculate the VAT figure by multiplying the Sales table [Price] with the corresponding [VATRate] in the VAT table by matching the [ItemType] in both tables.
I tried DLookup but couldn’t find a solution. How do I accomplish this?
I have a form which calculates many fields in the form. However, the issue that I have is how to use a different field in the query than the field that is shown in the drop down combo box in the calculation of an expression.
I am working on updating another person access database, how to add a calculated field. I need to add a field to an existing table to subtract the date listed in one field from todays' date. It would need to return the answers in days
ie
10/10/13 - 10/1/13 = Return answer of 9 days
I have been told about DateAdd but I cant find these date function in the option of expression builder.
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
Hi, im relatively new to access but my problem is fairly complex.
I'm creating a database for a school project, and it is focused on improving the way a flying club runs. I have been able to solve most problems myself, but this one truly has stumped me.
The basics: There are two tables - Instructor Details - Flight Completion
And one form - Flight Completion
On the instructor details table i have a field called 'Hours Flown' The purpose of this field is to show the total hours flown by an instructor. On the flight completion table i have a field called 'Flight Duration' This field is for the duration of the flight the instructor just flew.
I want it so that when the instructor presses a button on the flight completion form, the duration entered into the 'Flight Duration' field is added to the 'Hours Flown' field and then the 'Hours Flown' field is updated with the new total.
I hope that is clear to you, but if not please let me know and i will try and clarify it for you.
I have a query with a DateSerial Calculation field that I would like to filter the query by. The DateSerial calculates the same day of every year (5/31/"YYYY"). When I try to add a criteria sort to this field, I get a data mismatch error. Here is the code: ThirdMay: DateSerial(Year(DateAdd("yyyy",3,[LastDayYear])),5,31).
How do I get only dates due in 2015 to show? I have tried all the standard date criteria to no avail.
I have a table, at the table I'v got these fields:
ID | num1 | num2 | sum
I want that the user put numbers at 'num1' and 'num2' fields and then the 'sum' field will calculate automatically the operator (sum=num1+num2).
I've tried to put any combination at 'Default value' of the sum field (all the fields are numbers , also tried to change the sum field to text...nothing works).
I'm getting a message that 'num1' field is not recognize at the table
(I tried =[num1]+[num2], without the '=', num1.table+num2.table , ...nothing works)
I also tried to do it with SQL command but it dosn't work.
There is any way to do it, is it possible? Or other way to do it at least at Form or at Report ?
1. I created a table that contains information about people and their details (mainly numerical info). 2. I created a form containing a command button and a label. 3. I have written a VBA script under the button so that when the button is pressed, the result of the calculation appears as the caption on the label.
My problem is...How do I get the script to run so it does the calculation for every record and places the result as a field in a query.
Trying to calculate a few fields. 1st field is [delays] and 2nd field is [Planned] The Plan scheduled for 60 and the Delays are an entered value. In the on update command button on the form I want code that will take the value above 60 and add then to the value in the [Delays] So if delays is 10 and the planned is 70 then planned will change to 60 and delays will = 20
