I've found one thread on this forum which appeared to cover the problem I'm having, but it was from a few years ago and stopped rather abruptly.
I have a combo box with five fields. The row source for the box is shown below and includes a value that I obtain from dividing one figure by another. All is well until I try to order the box's contents by this value, at which time I'm getting an 'Overflow' message.
The full query is as follows, with the problem area in itallics.
I have a calculated field Labeled [Hours/Month], simply enough, it is calculated by dividing one field [Hours] by the other field [Months].
The field calculates just fine as 0 or null values are not part of the data set. However, I am trying to write a query that parses this data where the calculation (Hours/Month) is greater than (750/36 or 20.83).
I would expect to just be able to plug ">750/36" into the criteria, but this gives an overflow error, as does ">20.83". I don't want to have to write this data set to a table before being able to add this simple criteria, why this is happening?
Wonder if anyone might be able to help me out. In the detail section of Access report, there is three subreports laid out as follows
subreport1 subreport2 subreport3
Depending on the certain criteria, subreport1 and subreport2 may appear in the report. subreport3 will always appear on the report.
The problem that i'm having now is when subreport1 and subreport2 do not appear in the report, thet seem to occupy the space. Hence, when viewing the report, there is a huge gap. My question is whether there is a way of removing the gap there.
I created a query that pulls information from 2 other queries and everything was going fine until I saved the query. I now get a circular reference error
SELECT [CashValue Link Query1].Facility, [CashValue Link Query1].[Financial Class], [CashValue Link Query1].Date, [CashValue Link Query1].Date, [CashValue Link Query1].[Total A/R], [CashValue Link Query1].Current,
I have a separate front and back end for my database. I`m trying to merge them into one application, for easier distribution to users, but I`ve found that things that worked previously now produce errors, even though all I`ve done is import the tables as opposed to linking to them.
For example, the line:
Forms!Referrals!Paycode = str_Paycode
works perfectly if using linked tables, but if the links are all removed and the exact same tables are imported, I get the message 'Object invalid or no longer set'.
Is there some difference between linked and 'in-built' tables that I'm missing?
Our record code has just recently gone through 32000 barrier and I'm noticing that when I try to send a file and refer to the record code that I am getting an "Overflow" error.
An example of the code I'm using is
Send_DealTrak_Proposal "Concept Car Credit", Forms!frmFinanceProposal.DealCode
When the DealCode is less than 32000 it works, when above I get "Overflow"
I am using a linked Excel sheet that has formulas linked to fields in Access. Some of my cells (formulas) don't have any information that is being auto populated, therefore empty; however, Access is reading the cells and giving an error message "Numeric Overflow".
I have an autonumber field set up as long integer. The field just reached the value of 32670 and I get the overflow message. I thought a long integer could be much bigger than that before running into that problem.
I got around it by re-creating the field and starting from 1, but would rather know why it's doing it so I don't have users without their system.
Guys, When I generate an excel sheet through vb.net code, I get a Numeric Field OVerflow when the values generated contain a date!
my database is ms access...
The problem is that each excel sheet generated has different columns, depending on what columns the user selects to view. for example: if the user chooses name, age and date, the date would appear on the 3rd column, if the user chooses name, nationality, age, family name, date, then the date would appear on the 5th column, etc.....
I have linked One of My access Table with Excel. I am running the upend Access query to insert record from this table(Table that is linked with Excel table) into another access table. Whenever I run this query I get error "Numeric Value Overflow" nsg box. I checked the data types of all fields in excel and Access table and they are compitable. I am not getting any problem in Linked table. Problem occurs only when I run Append query. Plz help me on this. I wasted my 1 whole day on this problem.:o
Hi, I'm running an Append Query from an Excel <linked> file to a table in access. From what I can tell, the first filed is overflowing with a linked filed numeric of 'Double'. You can't change linked table fields. However when I first link the Excel file, the Append works... :D only when I reboot the PC and start the next day's work, do I get this message... :eek:
1. Should I include in my MACRO an import to a table and then append...? :mad: 2. Is there a trick in the append query I can use to prevent the error...? :rolleyes:
I am trying to perform an INSERT into a linked Oracle Table, using the following code:
INSERT INTO JTCS_OWNER_VISITS SELECT * FROM Visits;
Seems simple enough, there are 10,000 records in the visits table, but when i try to run this query i get an error message that simply says 'OverFlow' but no error code. This query worked earlier when i only tried to insert 1,800 records, can anyone tell me if there is a limit to the number of records i can insert. I have linked the oracle tables using ODBC drivers (SQORA32.dll) and this has worked fine against all of the other tables except this one...
im able to ru n a delete query then im able to run an append query, when i run it a second time it gives me the error numeric field overflow, any ideas guys Mark
I have a .txt file wicht I link to the database. If I run a query based on that .txt file I get the Error. ...BUT sometimes if i close the database and compact it it works..
I have been using a transferspreadsheet cmd for a while now in Access 2003, but when I recently split the database so that the table the import is going to is now linked rather than residing in the same mdb file, I get a numeric field overflow error. I manually made all the values in the import 0, converted it to text, but got the same error.
When I imported the table back into the file, rather than having it linked, the transfer worked fine.
Can you not run the transferspreadsheet command on a linked table or am I missing something?
I'm creating a database to store our Audit results. My issue is... I have all these different audit elements and each persons scores get entered into a form. I'm trying to get the average of everyones scores for each element. When I create a query and build the expressions to 'average' the score of these elements, it will only let me average 3 of them and then I get an overflow error. It acts the same way in the report as well.
I ultimately want to create a report that lists the elements followed by the percentage (average of the full company audit broke down by element). This way we can see our problem areas and where we need more training.
