Invalid Format? Data Type Mismatch In Criteria Expression
Jan 30, 2008
Hi,
I am trying to insert a text box value into a text field value in a table. I am checking to see if the value is already in the table but come across an error on the second click. The first click enters the number, and the second click gets error. I know where the error is but I'm not sure why or how to fix it.
Code:Dim db As DAO.DatabaseDim rs As DAO.RecordsetSet db = CurrentDb()Set rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("CVHOLD", dbOpenDynaset)If Not rs.BOF Then rs.MoveFirstrs.FindFirst "[Batch Number] = " & Me![Batch Number]'Error here on second passIf (rs.EOF) Then 'Seems to insert new record properly 'No Batch Number in Table yet. rs.AddNew rs("Batch Number") = Me![Batch Number] rs("Date Closed") = Now() rs.Update rs.CloseElse 'never enters, jumps to Error label 'Batch already listed in table MsgBox ("Batch already in table. Updating Closed date")End IfErr_cmdHoldStatus_Click: MsgBox Err.Description
This is what the debugger outputs for my values
Code:Me![Batch Number] : 81697 : Object/Textbox rs("Batch Number") : "81697" : Object/Field rs.BOF : False : Boolean rs.EOF : False : Boolean
can someone tell me why I getting this error when I try and run this query:
select distinct case_id from NOLDBA_RPT_CASE_CHG_IND G
where sys_curr_date between '01/01/2005' and '12/31/2005' and aft_case_status = 'O'
and not exists ( select 1 from NOLDBA_RPT_CASE_CHG_IND X where X.case_id = G.case_id and X.aft_case_status = 'C' and X.sys_curr_date = G.sys_curr_date )
I would be much obliged if someone would help me here.
I have the following code which takes a value from a combobox and uses it in an sql statment to find a certain record and then it populates the GUI with that recordset , however I get the following error "Data type mismatch in criteria expression"
Please help
CODE:
Private Sub cmdSearch_Click()
Dim sql As String Dim rsUpdate As New ADODB.Recordset
On Error GoTo DbError
sql = "SELECT * FROM ServiceReport WHERE CallReferenceNo= " & Me.cboSearchRef.Value
hi guys, here is my problem.the error in the title appears when i try to update a record.the field MODON in the table is defined as a short date and an input date 00/00/0000.Here is the code where i insert and update the records: Option Compare DatabaseOption ExplicitPrivate Sub Command4_Click()On Error GoTo Err_Command4_Click Dim stDocName As String Dim stLinkCriteria As String stDocName = "frmCalendar" DoCmd.OpenForm "frmCalendar", , , , , acDialog, Me.name & ";modon"Exit_Command4_Click: Exit SubErr_Command4_Click: MsgBox Err.description Resume Exit_Command4_Click End SubPrivate Sub Command15_Click()Dim str1 As DateOn Error GoTo Err_Command15_Click 'DoCmd.SetWarnings False If DCount("[comment]", "comments", "[change_id]=" & Me.Task_Num & "") = 0 Then MsgBox "insert" DoCmd.RunSQL "insert into [comments] (change_id,modon,comment,modby,modif) values (" & Me.Task_Num.Value & ",'" & Me.modon.Value & "','" & Me.Text10.Value & "','" & Forms!Login!username1 & "','" & Now() & "');" DoCmd.SetWarnings True Else MsgBox "update" MsgBox DLookup("[comment]", "comments", "[modon]='" & CStr(Me.modon.Value) & "'") DoCmd.RunSQL "update [comments] set comment='" & Me.Text10.Value & "' where change_id=" & Me.Task_Num & " and [modon]='" & Format(str1, "dd/mm/yyyy") & "';" DoCmd.RunSQL "update [comments] set modby='" & Forms!Login!username1 & "' where change_id=" & Me.Task_Num & " and [modon]='" & Me.modon.Value & "';" DoCmd.RunSQL "update [comments] set modif='" & Now() & "' where change_id=" & Me.Task_Num & " and [modon]='" & Me.modon.Value & "';" End If DoCmd.SetWarnings True Exit_Command15_Click: Exit SubErr_Command15_Click: MsgBox Err.description Resume Exit_Command15_Click End SubPrivate Sub Command16_Click()On Error GoTo Err_Command16_Click DoCmd.CloseExit_Command16_Click: Exit SubErr_Command16_Click: MsgBox Err.description Resume Exit_Command16_Click End SubPrivate Sub Command4_Exit(Cancel As Integer) If IsEmpty(Me.modon) Then MsgBox "Please, select a date for the minute" Me.modon.SetFocus Else Me.Task_Num.Visible = True End IfEnd SubPrivate Sub Form_Load() Me.Text13.Visible = False Me.Text10.Visible = False Me.Label12.Visible = False Me.Label9.Visible = False Me.Task_Num.Visible = FalseEnd SubPrivate Sub task_num_AfterUpdate() If IsEmpty(Me.Task_Num) Then MsgBox "Please, select a task Number" Me.Task_Num.SetFocus Else Me.Text13.Visible = True Me.Text10.Visible = True Me.Label12.Visible = True Me.Label9.Visible = True Me.Text13 = DLookup("[description]", "newchange", "[change_id]=" & Me.Task_Num & "") Me.text10 = DLookup("[comment]", "comments", "[change_id]=" & Task_Num & " and [modon]='" & Me.modon.value & "'") End IfEnd Subthx in advance....
I am trying to set a recordset, and I keep getting this data type mismatch error, but I cannot see what the problem is. Here's my code:
Set rstAccounts = dtbCurrent.CreateQueryDef("", "SELECT [Account ID], [Balance] FROM tblAccounts WHERE [Account ID]='" & txtAccountID.Value & "';").OpenRecordset
txt.AccountID.Value is 1, and when I hard code the value as 1 it works, so I'm not sure what the problem is. I've tried using CStr() to convert it to a string, CInt() to convert it to a integer (even though it already is one), with using both quotes, with only double quotes, and with only single quotes. It's driving me crazy, because i'm sure it's something really simple, but I'm not sure what else to try.
The error I'm getting is "data type mismatch in criteria expression".
Private Sub BtnAddBooking_Click() Dim CustomerID As String Dim StaffID As String Dim intPos As Integer Dim strSQL As String Dim strSQL2 As String Dim BathValue As Integer Dim rst As DAO.Recordset Dim RemainingBookingExists As String Dim RemainingBaths As Integer Dim RemainingBathsExists As String
Code: SELECT prevwd([practice_bacs_submission_date])<Date() AS chase_it, practice_bacs.practice_bacs_submission_date FROM practice_bacs WHERE (((practice_bacs.practice_bacs_submission_date)>#1/31/2013#));
and in the query results I see 0 and -1 as expected for the 'chase_it' expression BUT When I add True (or -1, or 0) as a criteria for 'chase_it', I get the "Data type mismatch in criteria expression" error.So the sql that fails is
Code: SELECT prevwd([practice_bacs_submission_date])<Date() AS chase_it, practice_bacs.practice_bacs_submission_date FROM practice_bacs WHERE (((prevwd([practice_bacs_submission_date])<Date())=True) AND ((practice_bacs.practice_bacs_submission_date)>#1/31/2013#));
In case it's relevant, my function prevwd is:
Code: Function prevwd(dt As Date) As Date 10 On Error GoTo prevwd_Error 20 dt = dt - 1 30 While Weekday([dt]) = 1 Or Weekday([dt]) = 7 Or IsBankHoliday(dt)
[code]...
and this function is used extensively and always works perfectly. I have tried using DateAdd instead of dt = dt - 1, but that made no difference.
I am creating a simple query in a farm audit database.
In criteria of the customers field, i have entered "Farmer One" as this is the customers data which I want to retrieve and in the Totals section I have changed the setting to Where instead of group by, but I am still getting "Data type mismatch in criteria expression" popping up.why this is?
I am working on a fairly ancient manufacturing database that identifies items using a combination of letters and numbers. The usual format is to have a letter (which suggests something about the item type) followed by a sequence of numbers.
I am trying to write a query that looks up all the records beginning with a prefix or arbitrary length, strips away the text, and finds the highest number.
Code:
SELECT Right(LocalID,Len(LocalID) - 1) As IDSuffix FROM tblItemIDCrossReference WHERE Left(LocalID,1) = 'T' AND IsNumeric(Right(LocalID,Len(LocalID) - 1)=True)
This query produces the error given in the title of this thread, whilst the following works:
Code:
SELECT Right(LocalID,Len(LocalID) - 1) As IDSuffix FROM tblItemIDCrossReference WHERE Left(LocalID,1) = 'T' AND IsNumeric(Right(LocalID,5)=True)
This related query also works and shows a load of -1s and 0s correctly
Code:
SELECT Right(LocalID,Len(LocalID) - 1) As IDSuffix, IsNumeric(Right(LocalID,Len(LocalID) - 1)=True) As Alias FROM tblItemIDCrossReference WHERE Left(LocalID,1) = 'T' AND
But once again shows the error message when I try to filter the field Alias to -1 or 0 only through the right-click menu.I have tried piping Len(LocalID)-1 through CLng, CInt, Int, CDbl and CSng; this changes the error to 'Invalid Use Of Null' I have also tried removing the '=True' from the IsNumeric() term.
I have an update query for tGLCashAccount where it adds a value from another table with the BeginningBalance to arrive at CurrentBalance.
Here's what it looks like in design view:
Field: CurrentBalance Table: tGLCashAcct Update to: [tMakeNewCashBal].[TotalPrice]+[tGLCashAcct].[BeginningBalance]
Here is SQL code: UPDATE tGLCashAcct, tMakeNewCashBal SET tGLCashAcct.CurrentBalance = [tMakeNewCashBal].[TotalPrice]+[tGLCashAcct].[BeginningBalance] WHERE (((tGLCashAcct.GLCashAcctID)="102"));
I get the error: data type mismatch in criteria expression when I run it.
I am trying to pass parameters to my qury thru my combo selection. I keep getting this error "Data type mismatch criteria expression", does anyone have an idea why? WHERE (((fShiftWorked([tblTimeLog].[timeStart])=[Forms]![frmOperatorWorkDone]![cboShift] Or IsNull([Forms]![frmOperatorWorkDone]![cboShift]))=True));
I have spent so much time onthis already and i am sick of it :mad:
I want to delete certain records based on the selected date. However, I come across with this is error - Run time error '3464' (Data type mismatch in criteria expression).This part is highlighted in yellow. I even used the debug.print to test out if the sql statement is executed properly.
Code: DoCmd.RunSQL DelSummarySQL
Here is my full code
Code: Private Sub cmd_Delete_Click() Dim DelSummarySQL As String Dim StartRange As Date
I have two tables in a query joined by a ID field. The problem is in the one table the ID fiels is a text format and in the other table its a number format so the query builder doesnt like that and gives me the Type mismatch in expression error.
There's no way around it though; i need it to be those formats in its respective tables for reasons i wont go into here for simplicity.
ID (Type Text) Title (Type Text) Remarks(Type Text) Formatted: FormatTitle([title],[Remarks]) Expr1: InStrRev([Formatted], "~")
public functionFormatTitle(ByVal sTitle as String, ByVal sRemarks as String) as String 'do process code here very complicated an long, but works find in the end 'creates a Multi-String delimited by | (pipe) end function
The above works, and Expr1 does give an accurate value for the position of a "~" (tilde) in the string Created by the FormatTitle() function.
However, If I put a Criteria >0 on Expr1 it asks for the value of the [Formatted] field as if it was a parameter. If I put a criteria for Formatted: Like "*~*" I get a Data Type Mismatch in Query Criteria
This Query Also produces the Data Type Mismatch in Query Criteria pardon me, but WTF? If it isn't a STring, than InStrRev() should produce an error, not an accurate response, and if InStrRev() produces a number why can't i compare it to 0 (zero)? This is indubitably messed up that I'm getting this error. There is no data type mismatch, on either of these tests, one is a string and I criteria-limit it by a string operation, the other is a number and I criteria limit it by a number, WHAT IS GOING ON!!!

I am getting this error in a query. The field generating the error is a calculated field using a custom function.The function is:
Code:
Public Function DecimalTime(dblEvalTime As Double) As Double DecimalTime = Hour(dblEvalTime) DecimalTime = DecimalTime + (Minute(dblEvalTime) / 60) DecimalTime = DecimalTime + ((Second(dblEvalTime) / 60) / 60) DecimalTime = Round(DecimalTime, 2) End Function
The dbalEvalTime parameter is passed in to the function as (DateIn+TimeIn)-(DateOut+TimeOut).
So the data type passed in is Double and the Function result is Double. The criteria i am applying in the query is simply <0.01. I have formatted the query field as #.00, 0.00 and General Number but it makes no difference.
I have also tried creating a second query using the first as its data source and applying the criteria in that query but still get the same error. Without the criteria the query runs fine.
I have a query with a field defined in the query as follows:
Next Bill Date: IIf(IsNull([dtmLastBillDate]), DateSerial(Year([dtmDateRecd]),Month([dtmDateRecd])+1,15), DateSerial(Year([dtmLastBillDate]),Month([dtmLastBillDate])+[lngNumMonths],15))
I can't seem to set any criteria for this field without getting an error: 'Data Type Mismatch in Criteria Expression'
Examples of criteria that I've tried: =#1/1/2005# >#1/1/2005# =Date() Year([Next Bill Date]) = Year(Now())
All of the above generate that same error. {I've seen many pages/posts regarding 'data type mismatch' but none seem to relate directly to this situation.}
Now, I know what the error message is supposed to mean, despite my total newbie-ness. My table Product has p/k ProdID (autonumber, long integer) and my table Items has ProdID (number, long integer) as a f/k. It's a one-to-many relationship (each Item is only one kind of Product, but each Product may have multiple Items.) But when I try to run a query in Access, I get the "Type mismatch in expression" error. The only relationship is between a number and an autonumber as described above.
can someone pls tell me why i get an Type mismatch in expression err with this code:
INSERT INTO tblACAD ( PROIZVAJALEC, TIP, DN, KOSOV ) SELECT tblsifrant.Proizvajalec, tblsifrant.Tip, tblsifrant.DN, tblsifrant.Kosov FROM tblsifrant, tblACAD WHERE (((tblsifrant.Sifra)=[tblACAD.TIP]) AND ((tblsifrant.DN)=[tblACAD.DN]) AND ((tblACAD.KOSOV)>0));
If i remove one criteria to get this code then there are no err, but thats not what i want:
INSERT INTO tblACAD ( PROIZVAJALEC, TIP, DN, KOSOV ) SELECT tblsifrant.Proizvajalec, tblsifrant.Tip, tblsifrant.DN, tblsifrant.Kosov FROM tblsifrant, tblACAD WHERE (((tblsifrant.Sifra)=[tblACAD.TIP]) AND ((tblACAD.KOSOV)>0));
I create this code in design view so all the names and tables are correct.
I'm trying to create a query, that groups by player name, the count of tourn_id, victories (count of position=1), cash_prizes (count of winnings>0), sum of winnings, sum of entry_fee, net winnings (sum of winnings - sum of entry_fee)
With the help of someone else, I get this, but I keep getting error msg "type mismatch in expression"
SELECT P.player_name, Count(T.tourn_id) AS CountOftourn_id, Sum(S.winnings) AS SumOfwinnings, Sum(T.entry_fee) AS SumOfentry_fee, (SELECT Count(position) FROM status WHERE position =1 AND status.player_name= P.Player_Name) AS victories, (SELECT Count(winnings) FROM status WHERE winnings>0 AND status.player_name= P.Player_Name) AS Cash_prizes FROM tourn AS T INNER JOIN (players AS P INNER JOIN status AS S ON P.player_name=S.player_name) ON T.tourn_id=S.tourn_id GROUP BY P.player_name;
I don't quite understand this error message, and therefore cannot begin to fix it. One of my forms will not open except in design view because of a "Type Mismatch in JOIN expression" error. Can someone please tell me where to look to fix it? Thanks.
I've been trying to get a query to run but I keep the "type mismatch in expression" error message.It's the Invoice-Product Query in the attached file.I have tried changing the field types, the primary keys and messed around with the relationships but noting seems to work.
