How To Sort By A Calculated Field In A Query?

Jul 21, 2006

I have a query that draws from two tables, and the field in question looks like this:

X: [TableData]![FieldA]*[TableNumbers]![A]+[TableData]![FieldB]*[TableNumbers]![B]


It all works fine and dandy, but once I set it to sort by this field and run the query, it gives me the parameter prompt, asking me to enter the Parameter Value of FieldA and then for FieldB.

Is there a work-around for this within the query?

The only other solution I have in mind is making another table from this query, and then creating another query just for sorting said table, but that seems inefficient at best.

Sort By A Calculated Date In A Query

Apr 1, 2008

I have a calculated date field in a query...if I try and sort by this field I get a data type mismatch.

EndTerm: DateSerial(Year([CONTREFF])+[TERM],Month([CONTREFF]),Day([CONTREFF]))

Reports :: Sort Records By A Calculated Percentage Using Text Box Values

Jan 27, 2015

So I have a report with the following text box controls:

[Surname] & ", " & [Firstname]
=Sum([Quarter1_A]) - Named "Quarter_Total"
=Sum([Quarter1_T]) - Named "Quarter_Target"
=Val([Quarter_Total])/Val([Quarter_Target]) - Named "%Target" (Percent Format)

The report is grouped by the expression '[Surname] & ", " & [Firstname]'.I am trying to sort the records by the %Target text box. I tried entering the expression into the sort function but it still sorts by the grouped expression. I also tried sorting by the name of the text box but got the same results. How can I sort by the desired control?

How Do I Add Calculated Field To A Query

Nov 23, 2007

I have an inventory transaction file that has quantity on hand as a calculated field. I am trying to add this unbound field to a report using a query but I can't figure out how to add my quantity on hand field to the query since it is a calculated field and not a bound control.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Using A Calculated Field In Another Query

Nov 15, 2007

I can't seem to find a problem like this already answered....

I have these two calculated fields:

dtmNPacketDue: IIf([strRevTypeNIRB]="Full" Or [strRevTypeNIRB]="Termination(Full)",[dtmNIRBMtgDate]-28,[dtmNExpDate]-28)

dtmCOIDueDate: IIf([strRevTypeNIRB]="Termination(Full)" Or [strRevTypeNIRB]="Termination(Expedited)","N/A",[dtmNPacketDue]-42)

When I use the one in RED in a calculated field in a new query, things are peachy.
But when I use the one in BLUE in a calculated field in a new query, the message is #Error

My Calculated field (which produces an #Error) in the new Query is:

2ndCOINotification: [dtmCOIDueDate]-14

(if I insert [dtmNPacketDue] instead...it works

Perhaps my problem is that dtmNPacketDue (a calculated variable) is part of the BLUE calculated variable....??

Any ideas greatly appreciated....

Calculated Field In A Query

Apr 24, 2006

Hola folks.

I am trying to create a calculated field in a query that subtract 2 fields within the same query.

That is, i have a FiscalWeekStart and FiscalWeekEnd pulling from a table. I created a CountofWeek field that count the weeks between the FiscalWeekStart and End using "DateDiff("w",[FiscalWeekStart],[FiscalWeekEnd])".

I also have a HolidayWeek field that pulls from a table using a
Count expression in the query.

My goal is to subtract the CountofWeek and the Holiday week calling it NonHolidayWeek using "NonHoliday Week: IIf(IsNull([CountofHolidayWeek]),[CountofWeek],[CountofWeek]-[CountofHoldayWeek])"

BUT IT IS ASKING FOR PARMETERS ON THE "CountofHolidayWeek".

Thanks for the help in advance.

Does anyone have any idea what might be happening?

Parameter Query On Calculated Field

Apr 17, 2007

I hope someone can help as I am stumped at present. I have created a calculated query using dateadd. I have a table that has date fields, ServiceContractAgreed and ServiceFrequency. The service frequency field holds a value of 3,6,9 or 12 in months. Using dateadd I can add the months to the ServiceContractAgreed field in a field called NextService, ie =IIf(IsNull([ServiceContractAgreed]),"N/A",DateAdd("m",[ServiceFrequency],[ServiceContractAgreed]))
This works fine but what I want to do now is create a parameter query to search the NextService field, using the between operator to search between dates. I've created a new query to do this but get every record back, no matter what dates I put in. It's probably something really simple to do but I'd be really grateful for any advice!

Cheers

Dave

Like Operator In Calculated Query Field

Aug 1, 2007

Good afternoon,

I have a field that contains semester info ie: F07 Sep.

What I am trying to do is using an if statement to test for which month and returning a section number based on the month. I can make it work using an exact match but am trying to make it work on the partial match "Sep" so I don't have to change it next year as F07 stands for Fall 2007

This is what I've tried and various combinations.
Section1: IIf([tblOnlineCoursesDetails]![Semester]="* Sep","70","")

Having trouble getting this to work.

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thx

Jerry

Queries :: Calculated Date Field In Query

Sep 10, 2014

I am having a problem with calculating a date field in a query. Prior to this posting I've done some research and made several changes to my query. This only resulted in fixing one problem but then creating another problem. Original problem was I had 2 fields, arrived (23:36) and stemi (0:07). I use the following calculation AT_ST: DateDiff("n",[arrived],[stemi]) which resulted in -1409. So my research showed me I had a problem with the date whenever the time went past midnight and trying to calculate a zero hour number. I changed my calculation to

AT_ST: IIf([stemi]>=#11:59:00 PM#,(DateDiff("n",[arrived],[stemi])),(DateDiff("n",[arrived],[stemi]+1440) Mod 1440))

This works fine and gives me the result of 31 minutes which is what I want, however the problems comes in when I change to this calculation any where there was a negative time now has a 1400+ plus value. Such as arrived (7:37) and 1st_eck (7:18) = 1426 where as before it would report -14 (yes, negatives are acceptable for my reporting because sometimes a call to the hospital is placed before the patient arrives so we want to report on the negative splits). I've tried using a nested IIF to calculate for stemi time being less than arrived time, this didn't work when I tried to use it on the calculated query field. I was wondering if I could write something to check the value of the calculated field if it is greater than 1440 and if yes - subtract 1440 from it. So in the example above 1426-1440 = -14. Is it possible to do this within the query or do I need to do it using VBA

Queries :: Rounding Value In Calculated Field In Crosstab Query

Aug 4, 2015

I have a very basic query with the following calculated field in it:

ProjRevNRC: IIf([ProjRevDate]>=DateSerial(Year(Date()),Month(Date()),1),[CurrentNRC]*[Rev Flow Through],0)

I went into the properties if that field inside the query design and changed it to Standard with 0 decimal places and it worked fine.

But when I based a crosstab query off the query that contained the above calculated field, I cannot seem to get the numbers to format correctly. 1231313.424 is shown instead 1,231,313 and I don't have a line in the Properties window to even change the decimal places. It doesn't recognize when I change the format to Standard. I have tried using Round([ProjRevNRC]) which gets rid of the decimal places as desired but does not show commas.

I'm sure it's a simple part of the Round expression that I am missing but nothing has worked.

Modules & VBA :: Adding Calculated Field To Existing Query

I am looking for a way to add a calculated field to the end of an existing query using VBA. Is there an easy way to do this?

The data I receive from an external supplier shows monthly data split by column with a new column added in each month. I then need to reflect this by adding a new column to the end of the query. It is currently a manual tweak, but I want to automate this with code.

Queries :: Calculating Bonus - Expression Using Sum Of Another Calculated Field In Query

Mar 28, 2015

I've can do this on excel but don't know how in Access. I'm calculating bonuses. My table has salaries, and my query simply multiples each salary amount by a % to get the bonus amount. But I need to calculate adjustments to the bonuses using the sum total of the bonuses my query calculated:

Salary (from table) Bonus (calc'd by query) Adjustment (to be calced)

100,000 1,000 Sum of total bonuses/salary*4%
90,000 900

How do I capture the total of my calculated bonus column to use to calculate the adjustments in my right-most column?
