Tables :: Make Calculated Field In One Table That Calculates Values From Another Table Linked By Order ID
May 13, 2015I have what is probably a stupid question but I've been struggling with this one for a while. I have an ordering database which has an Orders table (containing Order ID, Date, Supplier etc) and an Order Line table within which I have a combo box for Product name, supplier, price, VAT rate, Line price etc. At the moment, I have the order line table as a subform within the Order form (run from the Orders table). The problem I'm having is the subtotal and total fields. At the moment these are in the Order Line table as I cannot figure out how to get these in the Orders table. In summary, can I make a calculated field in one table that calculates values from another table (linked by Order ID)?

Forms :: How To Make Calculated Field Stay On Top
Jan 14, 2015My form has a button that has a calculated field on it (a dcount(...)). When the button is clicked, a couple of conditions are checked and if all is ok, it runs the vba code. If the tests fail, it returns to the form without running the code. All works correctly, except that the dcount number has disappeared. I finally figured out that it is now hidden behind the button. How do I bring it forward again programmatically?

Queries :: Make Table Query With Calculated Columns
Oct 8, 2013I am trying to run a make table query that involves using a linked table in Ms from a SharePoint list. However, a few columns I wish to include in my Make table query are calculated columns from the SharePoint list.
The make table query will not run saying "Calculated columns are not allowed in SELECT INTO statements".
Can any think of a solution or a potential work around to this?

Tables :: Auto-populate Table Field From Calculated Field In Another Table?
Jan 15, 2015I am creating a database to keep up with the expenses for my art business. I have a table for Vendors with a field (Mileage) for one-way mileage that I enter manually (EX: 11.8 miles). Then I have a calculated field that basically just multiplies the Mileage field times two to get total mileage to and from my house to vendor location. (Total Miles) {The reason I want to do this this way right now is because I didn't keep up with my mileage this year and I am having to look up the distance from my home to each location)
Then I have a "supplies" table where I show the date, the vendor, the item, cost, etc, and I want to add a Total Mileage field based on the calculated Total Miles field in the Vendors table that will automatically populate based on the vendor of each transaction. I just can't remember how to make this work and I know just enough SQL to be dangerous.

there are about 90k of which are duplicates.
this is the basic feilds that are important in this case.
Id, data_source, data_recived, data_code,

what i want from this is a table that will give me a record of how many dups for each record then all the dates that they were added and the date between each record entry.
if anyone can help it would be great .

Help Please Calculated Field In Table Or Other?
May 23, 2005Im not sure the best way to go about this and would be most grateful if I could be pointed in the right direction.
If I had a table called tblEmployee and a field within it called "PayRate" and another table called tblHours with a field in it called "LabourCost" and a field called "Hours". What is the best way to hold the "LabourCost" value so it doesnt get affected if someones "Payrate" is changed.
I expect I have asked this all incorrectly and I really do apologise.
Many thanks in anticipation... :)

Ignoring Duplicates In Table Field Values That Is For A Combo Box Drop Down List
Apr 13, 2014I'm trying to create a combo box that takes its values from a field in a table, the thing is that this field has duplicates because:
* The table is a qualification look up table
* It has 3 fields: QualificationID (autonumber), Qualification(e.g. Bachelor), Programme (e.g. Science)
* E.g of duplicate values (this is not a problem as it is necessary) Bachelor of Science, Diploma of Science, Certificate of Science
What I'm trying to do is create 2 single-columned combo boxes that are a parameter for a query and it's working except the combo boxes show duplicated valuesIs there a way to get the query that is the row source for the combo box to eliminate duplicates?
Make Field Auto Populate Based On Value Of Field In Another Table
Mar 4, 2008I'm creating a database that keeps a track of questions and scores.
The questions in the database need to be dynamic and are changed frequently.
I have a scorecard table which keeps a record of scores and the applicable question at the time the record was saved. I need to do this because in 6 months time we may want to provide feedback. As the question may have changed we need to be able to refer back to what the question was.
I want the question field in my scorecard table to populate with the value in my question table.
I have tried a number of things including setting the question field in the scorecard table to a lookup based on the following query:
SELECT tblQ1.Q1
FROM tblQ1;
This works however only as a list or combo box. I don't want the user to have to select the question. I want it to auto populate, is this possible?
Storing A Calculated Field On A Table
Aug 10, 2007Hi,
I know it breaks all the rules to store a calculated field on a table, but I've painted myself into a corner with the way I built this particular database, not good, I have repeating groups and basically the whole database is built this way. I need one form to store a calculated value on a table to solve a problem on a report that encapsulates the total of all the repeating groups. Before you start the lecture, I know I messed up, but this is way to far down the road to start over. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Table Calculated Field Creation?
Feb 12, 2008Is it possible (and logical) for me to create a table with a calculated field from 2 other fields in the same table? Example; I have a long time field (mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss) aka StartTime, and a long time field EndTime. I would like to subtract the StartTime field from the EndTime field to get the total time elapsed, but in hh:mm:ss format. I can get it in hh:mm format, but I really need the hh:mm:ss format. Any Ideas? :cool:

Sep 18, 2006Hello,
I have been reading various threads about this subject and I know that one shouldn't store a calculated field in a table.
I believe this may be an exception to the rule (but I could be wrong).
I am making a pricing database that will use a few manual inputs and the rest of the fields will be calculations (gross/profit margin, expenses) based off these inputs. We need to have these calcuated fields stored because they are essential to the pricing decisions and we will have to go back and access these fields at a later time. Another reason for this is because there will be at least one report that will be used to compare prices and calculated fields associated to a certain product by company, program, item type, ect...
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Tables :: Get Rid Of Calculated Field In A Table?
Sep 13, 2013I've learned the hard way about using calculated fields in a table. I used on while building in Access 2010 for users that will be using Access 2007. Once my testers pointed out the error message, I did some research and realized my calculated field was the problem.
So, I created a query to replicate the calculation, deleted the offending field from the original table and redirected everything to point at the new query vice the original table.
However, my testers are still receiving the error about needing version 14 to access that table. There isn't a calculated field there any longer, but they still can't access that table. Did that calculated field put some sort of taint on my database that can't be removed? I'm not sure what to do. Do I need to start over, so that a calculated field was never part of the database to begin with? If so, how much of my existing one can I reuse?
Tables :: Using NZ In A Table Calculated Field
Jul 22, 2013Access 2013
I am trying to add some numbers together for a number of fields, of which at least one field will either be 0 or empty. I am trying to use the following formula in a calculated field in a table:
IIf(IsNull([Price Increase %]),[Total],([Total]*[Price Increase %])+Nz([LumpSumAnnualIncrease]))
Access returns an error statement: The expression XXX cannot be used in a calculated column.
Is there a different formula I should be using, or a work around, other than using the formula in a query.

View 2 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Populate Calculated Field Into Table
Aug 6, 2013I need to populate a table with Grid reference values consisting of 6 figure integers, eastings and northings.
I am receiving/downloading the Grid Refs in a UK Grid Tile format, with 3, 4 or 5 figures preceded by letters.
E.g. SK 456 849, SP 6789 4356.
I have used some query functions and written a bit of VBA behind a form to convert the received coordinates into the full coords I want. The coordinates are now in unbound controls on a form, and I want to pass these back to a table so I can use the data for display purposes.
Ideally I want to link to the table from a GIS and autoupdate without having to open the database (my imported data is linked in to feed the database automatically).
I have done some searching and not found a method to pass the values into a table - What is my best way of doing this automatically?
