Hi, i could do with a bit of help with the following: I have attached the database so that you can see what I am doing. In my main table I have a couple of fields which rely on being able to compute the values of another table linked by quoteID but am coming up against mental brick wall. any assistance gratefully received.:eek:
View RepliesI have a query that creates counts of fields based on the data in other fields, basically it tells me that in a table there are two entries with value ABC????? and three of DEF????? , the query works perfectly.
When I create a form to display this data and base the form on the Query I keep getting a message box asking for the ID (key field) from the base table.
If I type * in the box (to denote all values) and press enter I get the results expected.
I have a product table that includes the name of the product, the quantity ordered, and the unit price. This is a summary table for the whole year showing all of the orders. The Primary Key is [ID] from the [tblOrders] table. I attached a screen shot of my query. I don't know if you can see it. I want to generate a report where each product is listed once, the unit price for that product is listed, the total number of that item that was ordered throughout the year, and finally, the total amount spent for each item during the year.

I have a table devoted to time spent on certain projects. I am trying to make a query to show the total time spent on each project (the data is not in time format) and then turn that into a percent for a report. I have tried doing a summary query, but that isn't giving me the data i am looking for...is there an easier way:confused:
I have a table with products and their costs per unit of measure.
some products are costed by weight and others by piece.
table looks something like this:
product
pcs
weight
unit of measure (EA or KGS)
cost
Query should look like this:
product
pcs
weight
Total Cost
Is it possible to write an expression that, depending on the unit of measure uses the pcs or weight field to calculate the total cost ??????
I've tried many things (compact and repair, Nz(,0), sum()) and I can't get it to work.
I entered =[field1]+[field2] but it behaves like if I had entered =[Field1] & [Field2].
Yes instead of adding the numbers it just puts them together.
For example: Field1=3 and Field2=5 instead of field3=8 it shows Field3=35.
Hello, I have 4 input field boxes in a form: "basic hours", "overtime hours", "holiday hours" and "total hours" i would like it so that when the user enters number(s) into the other field(s) the total field will calculate (add togther the other fields). So for example if the user puts "10" in the "basic hours" input field and "5" in the overtime hours" field then the "toal field" will display the number "15". i would like it so that the "total hours" field calculates the total progressively after each number in the other fields is input (ie a running total is displayed). The user will always fill in basic hours but 1 or more of the other fields can be left blank. I think i need to do some VB on the after update procedure for each field entry but not sure what the code is?, any help would be brilliant.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a database for police officers to enter their daily activity. For example on arrests, Date:_____ Drugs____DUI___
The officers enter the date and the total number arrested for each charge. I want to print a monthly report. How do I make the report print this information for a specific date range? The way I have it now, it asks for the startdate and enddate, but it still totals every record, not just the date range.
i would like to sum up 5 fields and save (or just show it in the form view is enough really) in a seperate field, i have managed to sum the 5 fields, but it summed up all 5 fields in all records, i'd like to have my form show the sum for the record, not the table.
it would be ideal that it would refresh when one of the 5 fields data changes, i.e from 1000 to 2000. again updating in the form view is what is needed.
I have created a table with four fields. The names are:1stBusOn, 1stBusOff, 2ndBusOn, 2ndBusOff.
I want the time for the first two fields and the time for the second two fields to end up in a field called TotalRideTime.
Also, if only one set of the fields are completed I still want that total time to in up in the the TotalRideTime field.
I need a solution for the following problem:
For example:
............F1 F2 F3
Rec1 ....4 ..2 ..5
Rec2 ....3 ..3 ..1
Rec3 ....1 ..2 ..1
Now, I want to know how many 1s are there in Rec3 the answer is obviously 2 but I want a field(F4, for e.g) that calculates F1+F2+F3 showing all their 1s 2s and 3s.
A solution I found was...... F4=IIf([F1],1,0)+IIf([F2],1,0)+IIf([F3],1,0)
But I have over 50 Fields that contain 1s and 2s and I can't count them all by using this formula as it will be tremendously long and access will reject it.
So I need another formula(or function) that will look up for the 1s across multiple fields and show the total count for each record in a new field.
Tried 'look up' function but achieved nothing ....
I have to create a query in access that will calculate two Date and time fields [Date & Time Left]/ [Date Returned], need to figure out between the two fields. Trying to identify when the rep returned the call and the number of business hours (6:00am - 4:30pm) it takes to return a message in Ms Access 2010.
The only issue is the calculation has to be done by time and so I have to calculate what time they left the message(so the difference between [Date & Time Left] and [Date Returned) [Date & Time Left] and when the rep returned the message which is suppose to be [Date Returned] but the problem with this field is the data entry is in date format (10/9/2014, 00/00/0000) of Date and not Date and Time like the [Date & Time Left] field, so I don't know what to do now. Not sure what to do now not a database that create or have allot of control over.
Any way of setting up a table containing the following date/time fields.
StartDate
StartTime
EndDate
EndTime
Ultimately I will need to be able to subtract these date/times to get a total time between the two. Should I combine the start date and times in one cell or keep them separate.
In either scenerio, how do I subtract the two in a query for a report?
I have two fields on the main form and I need a total count of records between the value of the two and then enter the total in a bound field on the main form
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create a query that has a self referencing running total based on the values (point totals) of itself (running total of values in the running total column that have already been calculated for all previous records) plus the total of new points being added in the current record, less the total of points being removed in the current record. This running total can never go below 0, if it does, the running total should restart at zero and add in only new points and begin the process again with the next records
I am able to do this in Excel in less than two seconds so I know there has to be a way to port this into a query. I've attached an excel example of what I am exactly trying to do
If it takes multiple queries to complete the required output I am ok with it. In my previous outtakes I have had up to 8 queries but just couldn't seem to do it..
Hi,
1) I am pretty newbie to this access programming, do forgive me if my questions sounds stupid.
2) Basically I create an application in access capturing or production information for my company. now the top management suddenly wanted whats their main concern:- Total Daily/Monthly, Quarterly, Annual Sales (By Model If possible)
3) I start with daily (Lets don't be too overly ambitious).
4) I try to let user select dates from my calender control and reflect daily sales (in Total & By Model break down) insert into my form.
5) Understand someone told me from my previous post in Calender control I can achieve it either through forms or queries, which is a better way. (in terms of flexibility to change for program maintenance/ scalibility) wise ?
PS: Please forgive my ignorance :o:(
Thanks (In advance) & God Bless.
I am using calculated field as a data type in access 2010.
They are working fine.
However, I added a new field and now the final calc won't work.
I have Subtotal adding loads of fields together. Works fine.
Then I have a VATunit field which is a double integer, so enter 20 and my next field is VATTotal calculates the SubTotal + the VATunit by doing (Subtotal/100)*VATunit. This calculation is fine and gives me the correct amount.
The next field is a Total field. Which adds Subtotal and the VATTotal together. Howver, the Total is the same as Subtotal. It is not adding the VATTotal to it?
I'm trying to sum up the hours of a sub-form on the main form. I've followed the instructions in Access Help so far. I've created a text box in the footer of the sub form with the following control source:
=Sum([Mon])
which should sum up all the hours in HoursMon fileds.
Then I've created a text box on the main form with the following code in the Control Source
=[frmTshtProj Subform]!SumMon
But it doesn't work. I get a #Name? appear in the box instead of a total. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance

I have a table with 4 field which describe clips.
ClipName (txt)
ClipSize ( Long Integer)
ClipDuration (HH:MM:SS)
Date created (dd/mm/yy).
I would like to get the total of ClipSize and also total of Clip Duration either in table down or in query.
I have a table with a number of fields and made a query to get some sums/totals.
In the query I made three fields :
Gast : DSum("[aantal]","TbBedrag","[Discipline] like 'gast*'")
Elec : DSum("[aantal]","TbBedrag","[Discipline] like 'elect*'")
Pumps : DSum("[aantal]","TbBedrag","[Discipline] like 'cent*'")
The first gives me the sum of ‘aantal’ where the ‘Discipline’ is Gasturbines, the second is the sum of aantal in electronics, etc.
I made another field which is supposed to give me the total of the three forementioned fields : totaal: [gast]+[elec]+[pumps]. The output of this field however does not give me the actual total, but writes the numbers of ‘Gast’, ‘Elec’ and ‘Pumps’ after another, instead of totalling the three numbers.
Strange, why would the total not give me the sum of the three calculated fields ?
Hello there
im having trouble summing a number of fields that contain a value of £0.00 or blank for example i have five fields on a form £2.50 £0.00 £3.00 £ £4.00 if all fields have a value then the correct total is displayed i have tried =([price1]+[price2]) ect or sum which does work but not if £0.00 or £ are used obviously the result i am after is total £9.50 can anyone help i want to be able to sum or add all fields to give a total including numbers £0.00 and blanks please no code because i wouldn't know what to do with it just keep it as simple as possible i intend to write the formula in the totals field not in the footer i would really appreciate your sugestions
many thanks Richard
Hi
I have made a database in access 2000, and in one of the reports i have "iff" statements in a field but if i try total the whole column it give s me a error:
=IIf([MATURITY DATE]<[DATE],0,FV(0.09569/12,[TERM],[PREMIUM ]/[MODE],-([PURCHASE PRICE]+[PREMIUM ACCOUNT]))) (EXAMPLE: of iff statement.)
this gives me the answer i want but i want to sum the whole column.
if i try sum total i get a error?

Well at the moment i'm still in the design stages, but i made a database with test fields to see how it would work out best.
Basically i have to have a form with a drop down list for each type of computer componant and when selected the total price for all the items selected so far needs to show up at the bottom of the form.
Or when a button is pressed the price could be updated, that is fine too!
The way i was planning to do it was having an orders page, in which each field was a lookup to a difference table, one for each componant
Processor; ProcID, Proc name, Proc cost
Anyone have any ideas on the easiest way to load the total value for the items selected? Would be much appreciated! Thanks!
O.K, I am really trying to figure this out from other postings but my limited query experience is limting my understanding of the other posts.
I only know how to use the query wiz and then a bit in design mode.
I have a Query
[ID]pk [Contest Name], [Score]
There will be many records for the same [Contest Name] in the underlying table. Therefore i want to sub total by [Contest Name] so i can then create a report. I have created the report perfectly using the Report support in another posting submitted. But the report does not allow me to order the results as the sum calc is a function on the report. Therefore I am now exploring the Query Sum [Score] order by [Contest Name].
I just need it in a Qery for dummies format.
Go into design mode and put the following in what portion of the query on what line.
I will keep on searching in the mean time
I have a query which returns charge_cost (based on course cost, whether it went ahead, if hospitals are eligible for charging etc) which is then used in an existing report.
I want to make another report which simply is:
Total training spend for 2004-2005:
£1276.04
And i just want that to be the SUM of charge_cost.
I cant work out how to do this - i did a new query including charge_cost and then created a new field called total_spend: sum([charge_cost]) but i keep getting the message "You tried to execute a query which does not include the specified expression charge_cost as part of an aggregate function"
I have no idea what this means...
Please Help. I am tring to get the Month to date, year to date and week to date total in a query. I added a parameter for a date range. Instead of giving me the mtd, wtd, ytd, I get the whole months daily total. Can someone tell me what query caculation do I need to just get one number instead of daily numbers?
