I have a field for Item Price.
It would be a currency field, but I want it to be able to work with up to 6 decimal places. currency only seems to handle 4.
So, in the table, i changed it to a Single.
In the form, I left the control on Currency.
If I type in $1.43, instead of storing $1.43000000 it stores $1.43003243953
Why is it adding all these bogus sub decimal numbers? Any clue?
Thank you,
Evan
Hi there,
I am not sure the best way to do this,
I have a field with values that look like: 1.69553366385509 or 0.0061705541157596
I want these values to look like: 1.6955 or 0.0062 (4 decimal places [rounded up if possible])
Thanks for your help with this

Hello,
I have a lot of values that look like this: 0.524, 0.673, and 0.398. I hate to look at these numbers with the zero before the decimal point and would like to find out how to remove them. I know that it's possible in Excel, but I'm not sure of how to do it in Access.
Is this possible?
Thanks
I am working on a database that tracks things for a welding shop. Because of this I am using heights in millimeters and decimal points are necessary. The page I am using is an input form with a subform tied to a specific record. I can under no circumstance get my decimals to stay put in the input form or in the table. I have tried changing to decimal and putting the decimal to two and the precision to five, long integers with decimals to 2. Formatting with #.## so it maintains it in the text box... but nothing has worked. Has anyone run into this problem?
Thanks

When created a query how do you change the decimal point,
There are many and i want a single one.
Does anyone know how to force a listbox to display an additional level of accuaracy in a listbox which displays a value based on an expression in a querry? My querry displays the value to 4 decimal point but my listbox only diplays the value to 2 decimal point.
Thanks!
I have a table with the numbers formatted as example 9999,99. My mysql database i'm exporting to uses the point as decimal sign. Can I change my query so it outputs the decimal sign as point instaed of a comma?
In my international setting decimal is a comma and should stay a comma.
Thanks
ok.. this is not a hugely important issue, however.. it is a slight annoyance that i would like to resolve if it is possible..most of my currencies will be whole numbers like twenty pounds or five pounds..so i chose to set the decimal point to 0 which displays it like this..£50which is better then setting it on auto (£50.00) which my user does not like..(uneccessary zeros)however.. every now and then there will be a carpark cost of £2.30..if i set the decimal point to 0 then £2.30 will display as £2 which is no good.. if i set the decimal point to 1 then it will display it as £2.3 which is no good..so is there a way to make sure that all currencies display as decimal point 0 values.. eg £34.. £2.. £145 and if a price happens to involve some pence.. such as two pounds 30 pence.. then display it as £2.30 or £103.55... etc....i hope that is clear

In the database I'd like to show one of the fields as a real number by formatting the Integer value to add a decimal place. Example: 2505 to 250.5
View 11 Replies View RelatedHi Guys,
How do I create a number field in my table that can store numbers with 2DP?
I have set the format to both Standard and Fixed before, AND specifed 2DP in the drop-down box. But whenever I go to enter in a value, Access just rounds off the decimal place!
If you specify Number as data type and Decimal as field size for a field in an Access table, will it actually store numbers to the right of the decimal point? I have never been able to get this to work or find these value if they are there and have alwayshad to use field size single or double or data type currency.

I am new to Microsoft access and I am currently exported an advanced revelation database in CSV format to access now because advanced revelation is a multivalue pick database I needed to create a the key for the multivalue fields which I have separated the data which is NI.
Now all the data is separated in order but the NI field only shows once then its blank going down till the next NI which is the next record this is due to to the multivalue fields data that has been separated.
How can I get access to copy the NI number down into the blanks slots till it reaches the next slot and then copy that one and so on in a loop once this is done I can use this as a key field and separate the data further..
Regards
Norman
I have a pivotchart which I cause to take a huge list of people's test percentiles and calculate the average for each year. I then display the average above each bar. The problem is that there are too many numbers after the decimal place for each figure. I went into the properties and changed the number format to "fixed" but it doesn't give me the option to change the number of decimal places that are used (it does every where else in MS Office!). It seems that it just uses the regional settings for the computer. But the problem I have in changing that is that I have other pivotcharts in the same report that does something similar but needs a different number of decimal places. Is there any way around this without having to create another query to calculate the average and then having the pivotchart display the info from the new query (this is a huge database that I put together with many charts and I don't want to have to redo the way that it works just because of this decimal place issue)?

In access, I have a field in a table that I need to fix. The field contains a charge(money) value, with a code attached to it. For example:
[2345.0020680]---> The (2345.00) is the charage amount & the (20680) is the code.
[17580.04PPO]----> (17580.04) is Charge; (PPO) is the code.
**Every charge amount is different, and every codes length is different; so there is no consistency in this field.
I need to add a space, comma, backslash, or something two places after the decimal, to split the two. Once I do that I'll export to excel, and split the field into 2.
HELP!:confused:
Thanks in advance everyone,

Adding a second auto number field to current table and auto numbering current entries?
I need to combine some records from the same order number that currently have detailed names. I'm trying to simplify them, but I can't because it creates duplicate records.
Hello
my problem is how to reduce decimal number of column in the tables. Problem is that some numbers are quotients and they have a lot of decimal which make a problem in the report where they have to have just 2 decimals.
Column in the query and in the report is not reserved only for numbers.
if some one have idea?

I'm having difficulty in adding decimal amounts to a percentage expression.On a form in a text box I have a percentage expression of 73.38%. In a combo box I have a drop down menu of: 0.75, 0.5, 0.25, 0, -.25, -.5, -.75With another text box I would like to have the decimal amounts added to the percentage. For example, 73.38% + .5..Which will equal in the text box: 73.88%
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi,
I have the field set to number -> decial and places to 2.
The CSV document reads 96.133542682
So once imported it should look like 96.13
but it doesn't it is just 96.
Why is this? when the field is text it is the 96.133542682 as it should be.
Thanks

I am using access 2010. I technically have an unbound form but I am changing the record source by command buttons. Switching between 3 command buttons. My problem is that I have a subform that I was linking to the form to an unbound search field. Now I want to switch the master and child links to a field on the form when I switch the record source which happen to be the same field as the unbound search field; however; it still pulls from the unbound search field rather than the field on the form. Do I need to delete the search field in order to get is to point to the appropriate field?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been looking into writing an access form used for hard drive analysis and came across hex values. This made me start dabbling with numbers again and came up with the following function.If you're a person that enjoys playing with numbers, could I get you to think of any scenarios where I could solidify this function to handle errors and become as dynamic as possible!
I think the end result could be useful to add to this communities quick fix library. What it does is take two strings, value and and the definition of how that numbers counts, and with these two values it will spit out the decimal value.
examples:
HEX - "FFF", "0123456789ABCDEF"
OCT - "777", "01234567"
BINARY - "11111110", "01"
Code:
Public Function ConvertStringToDecimal(ByVal str As String, _
ByVal def As String) As Variant
Dim inc As Integer: inc = Len(def)
Dim n As Variant: n = CDec(0)
Dim i As Integer
Dim val As Integer
