OK, I should be able to figure this out, but I'm getting frustrated... I also haven't been able to find the answer via the search feature or MS help, so I'd be overly appreciative if someone could slap some sense in me with an answer to this.
All I am trying to do is write an IF expression in "Text9" that resides in a subform (that feeds a table) that will multiply the value typed in the "MatQuan" text box by a specified amount. (Example below)
Private Sub LocQuan_AfterUpdate()
If Forms![frmEntry]![PartNumber] = "1A4595" And Me.Location = "Vane ID" Then
Me.Text9 = ((LocQuan.Value) * (0.021))
End Sub
I know it's recognizing the specified part number in the master form because I tested it using different instructions. When I type the line that is supposed to do the multiplication as I think it actually should be, I get an error. As seen above, it does nothing at all. I've tried many different variations with either a debug error or lack of results.
Could someone please show me how to properly write this darned expression?
Thanks in advance!
Yours in stupidity,

I have a table with inventory items, a separate table with storage charges per day (ex .03, .04, .05 per day/per item)
I have created some queries where I take the items & # of days they have been in storage and when I try and create an expression for storage charges based upon QTY & # of days I am getting results like it is multiplying whole numbers and not very small increments like .03
I have checked the math, and its not multiplying by 3 instead of .03... I cant quite figure out how it is coming up with the numbers.
Again, the pricing is coming from a lookup wizard to another table. It seems like it should be a very straight forward expression but I cannot get it to work. Does the figures being from a lookup have any issues?
Hi I need help creating a calculated field. I'm not sure how to write the IF statement. Calculated Field Name: Special_Rate Data Field Name: phrearn_earn_code Bascially.... If phrearn_earn_code = OT1, then I need to Multiply OT1 * .5 for a total.
The quantity field has the amount of pieces that we produced in a given day. The NTA field is a number 1-4 and blank that show the amount of pieces that require the NTA job.
As long as there is a number in the nta field, I get a good calculation. If the nta field is blank, I get #error in the query. What is wrong with the above formula that it isn't replacing the #error with 0?
If I put the 0 at the end of the formula, it replaces the good calcs with 0,so the formula is correct, correct?
I have the projects profile form and would like access to calculate some values automatically, when I enter certain data for each project. I enter "Forecast" and "Probability" The result has to be X=Forecsst*Probability
I write in the options of text filed for the result the following
=Summ([Forecast]*[Probability])
and he calculates it only for one form, but not for others. In other forms the summ stays the same or changes to something absolutely random. Why?? What should I write to proceed these stupid multiplication? :confused:
I have a question about query. There is two field in query.Total and Currency. I'd like to multiplication total and currency filelds.I so thing do in query. if currency field is empty , write total to the GTotal.if you help to me I would be very glad.
Thank you
For Example GTotal:[Total]*[Currency] it is very good working. but I don't want this calculation GTotal:iif([Currency]is not null;[Total]*[Currency] or iif([Currency] is null; [Total]) it is not working. Query result : -1 :confused:
now i want to split it up. i want to count all the records for each month. my field name is datein_now but its just a normal textfield and not a date field. example in field: 05/02/02 10:24:31 AM. also got a datein textfield:05/02/02 i had Count(*) where datein_now between 05/05/01 and 05/05/31
I need help setting up an expression. I need to set the default value = date + 2. But this also needs to take into account working days. I am just having problems with the syntax for this, as i would normally do this in VBA and do not have much experience with Expression Builder. And yes it does have to be done in Expression Builder.
I know this is horribly wrong... thats why I am asking for help. IIf ((WeekDay(DateAdd ("d", 2, Date)) = 1, (DateAdd("d", 3, Date)),(DateAdd("d", 2, Date))) OR IIf (WeekDay(DateAdd ("d", 2, Date)) = 7, (DateAdd("d", 4, Date)),(DateAdd("d", 2, Date))) OR IIf (WeekDay(DateAdd ("d", 2, Date)) < 7 AND IIf (WeekDay(DateAdd ("d", 2, Date)) > 1, (DateAdd ("d", 2, Date),(DateAdd("d", 2, Date)))
I need 3 If statements: 1 for if its Saterday 1 for if its Sunday 1 for if its neither.
In VBA I would do something like this: If WeekDay(DateAdd ("d", 2. Date)) = 1 Then Box = Date() + 3 If WeekDay(DateAdd ("d", 2. Date)) = 2 Then Box = Date() + 4 If WeekDay(DateAdd ("d", 2. Date)) > 1 And WeekDay(DateAdd ("d", 2. Date)) < 7 Then Box = Date() + 2
could i get some advise on an expression i need in a query?
i have 5 fields SumMats,SumLabs,MatsDed,LabsDed,Ttreat
i need another field that will give a value on a condition. the condition is that if LabsDed isNull, MatsDed will be divided by Ttreat otherwise LabsDed will be divided instead. can this be done? if so, how could i do it?
Maybe i am totally confused but here is initially what i have and what i want to do.
I currently have a db for carrer development-- i have three fields
Last Review Date Next Discussion Due Status
My next discussion due is on the fly-- i did a dateadd (by one year) from the last review date to get the current result for the next disussion due--
here is what i want to do with the status and am confused with how to do it-- i want the status to have three options-- completed,overdue and upcoming-- i want these to be autogenerated but am unable to find what expression i need-- as the IIf expression only gives the option of two possible results--
so how would i go about doing the expression with having three possible outcomes?
I am trying to execute a query that calculates a retail pricing off the whsl pricing. This is the excel calculation i use: =IF(F2<10,(SUM(F2*4)),(SUM(F2*2))). I changed the IF to IIF, and replaced "F2" with "[WHSL PRICE].
However, I am getting an error that the "category" expression is not included in the function (when I have all the fields in the query) or the function if I have just the field I am trying to calculate in the query. Can somone help me understand what I am doing wrong.
I would also like this calculation to save in the table, if possible. As I use this information to update my fields in my web database.
;) I want to create a field named ErrorCases that sums the rows meeting the following conditions: The row has a ValidityReason = 2 and for the same row ExpValidity is either null or 3. I want a count of the rows meeting these condtions.
Here is the formula I have constructed that does not work.
ErrorCases: Sum(IIf(([ValidityReason]="2" And [ExpValidity] Is Null) Or ([ValidityReason]="2" And [ExpValidity]="3"),1,0))
I having some trouble trying to use an expression in my query, I have 3 indivisual exoressions in 3 fields I which work perfectly, however I want only 1 field produced so I tried placing 1 after the other as below:
How can i write an expression in a query field that will return the following text; "A","B","C","P" and "F" Base on another field when the values of that field are <=44.44, between 44.45 and 54.44, Between 54.45 and 64.44, Between 64.45 and 74.44 and above 74.45 respectively?
LETS SAY I HAVE THREE PART NUMBERS FOR DIFFERENT MANUFACTORS. IF THE USER SELECTS GE MANUFACTOR THEN THE GE PART NUMBER SHOULD BE LISTED IN PART NUMBER. I GET ERRORS WITH THIS EXPRESSION IN MY QUERRY
Expr1: IIf([MANUFACTOR SENT]="GENERAL ELECTRIC",[PART NUMBER]=[GE PART #])
this expression works fine in my querry....but i need to add to it...if the user doesnt choose 2...if he chooses 1 then i need the sylvania part number or if he chooses 3 i need the phiilips part number....so i used this expression
IIf([MANUFACTOR SENT]=2,[GE PART #])IIf([MANUFACTOR SENT]=1,[sylvania PART #])IIf([MANUFACTOR SENT]=3,[phillips PART #])
but i get errors....how do you you string the expression...or what should i do to fix
I can't seem to be able to build the right expression to achieve this. I can easily code this through a form using VB, but I assume it is equally possible through just a query.
I would be grateful for any and all help people can provide,
I am trying to write an expression that will compare names in a field to see if they are the same. then as long as the name is the same i need a field to add another field and then subtract yet another field but if there is nothing in the subtract field then i just want the answer of the two added fields.
I need a help with an expression basically I have a date taken out field and I need to find out how long a video has been taken out for since the day taken out :confused: I need it to create a new field in the query and display how many days it has been taken out.
