I have set a field in table to be a 'percent' However, try as I might am unable to type in 40 and get 40%
I seem to get either 4000% or 0. I have tried differing settings.
Has anybody else had this trouble and could offer some advice?
Thanks :confused:
How can I change a number column in a three digit percent one?Tried the following, however it just deletes the content of the column:
Code:
Public Sub TEST()
Dim a11 As Double
Dim year As Integer
[code]...
I have a form to enter RMA data. I need to start my numbering at 4000 without using an autonumber. The ID field is text and cannot be changed. The Customer_Order table is a linked table. A letter is going to be added infront of the ID depending what the user chooses from a combobox. The letter(R,A,C) signifies what type of transaction it is. Here is an example -
R4000
A4001
A4002
Currently there are about 100,000 records in the database but none with an ID between 4000 and 10000. The majority of the records have a letter preceeding the number. Any ideas on how to start numbering at 4000?
Hey i have a percent field in a query which displays correctly in the datasheet view, but when make the report the percent is just a long row of numbers :confused:
anyone got any suggestions? would be greatly appreciated
Maybe someone knows the logic behind MS Access for the display of percents in the formating..... ie.... If you input 3 you get 300.00%. I really dont think ANY user would look at a form... with a field called...say "Commission percent" and expect an input of a 5 to return 500.00% Does this need to be corrected with coding?
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi,
How can format proper display for percentage values. What happens is I chose a field as percent, but if I put in 9 meaning 9 % I get 900% as the value is multiplied by 100, but if I put in 0.09 I get 0%.
I just want to put in day 9 and be saved as 9%.
thanks

I searched everywhere for a solution to my problem. I have to create a field and set its format property to Percent using code. I know how to create the field using code but how do i get to Format property? Is that possible?
Thanks in advance for your answers!
Hi, in my query I am calculating a NET PRICE starting from the GROSS PRICE and the DISCOUNT % (Percent field). The Net Price shows incorrectly an amount which contains several decimals "invented" at the right end. For example, in this moment I have an item with Gross Price = 576,09 and Discount % = 10,00%. The Discount Amount shown by the query is 57,6090049743652 while the correct result should be 57,609. Therefore the Net Price is incorrect as well. Any thoughts about this ? Is there any known problem with the PERCENT fields ?
Thanks and regards. Alberto
hi all,
i normally just go into design view in my query to change the format type, but some of my subqueries are quite large, so i'm getting 'the expression exceeds the 1,024 character limit for the query design grid.
i figured i could just multiply the subquery by 100, but the results are still calculated out to about ten decimal places.
so... how do i format a subquery directly in sql to be a percentage with two decimal places?
thank you,
mj
Hello:
This is for the purchasing guy at my client's office. He has 9 vendors he wants to track their on time delivery performance. The data comes from the purchase order tables in his accounting software, to which I've linked via ODBC.
So far so good. I've created a query to pull only those 9 vendors from his total population, then ask for the date range to query by date for the date range (start and end date), and use an expression to calculate the difference between the date wanted and date received so he can tell if the delivery was on time or not. (ex: date wanted: 3/10/06 date received 3/13/06. 3 days difference = late delivery)
The twist is he wants another field so he can mark whether he considers the delivery late or not depending on extenuating circumstances he keeps locked up in his cranium, despite what the date difference results tell him. So, I created a combo box and he can select "Yes" or "No." If he selects YES, a value of 1 is written to the table in that field, if he selects NO, a value of 2 is written to the same field.
So, I need the query to group by vendor, count the total number of entries for that month by that vendor, count the number of "1"s and express that total as a percent of total deliveries.
To summarize, vendor A had 8 deliveries, 5 were on time, meaning he had a 62.5% delivery score. Vendor B had 10 deliveries, 7 on time, meaning a 70% delivery score.
Sorry for the long winded explanation, but perhaps someone can assist. All help appreciated.
I have a a table that stores various financial information such as sales receipt totals and variance totals (if actual cash in drawer did not match receipts, etc...) that I use to track cashier performance and identify possible problems. Part of this process includes a query that I pull reports against.
One such query, simplified to illustrate the concept, lists the dollar total that their receipts indicate they made, and the dollar amount that their actual drawer was off (either short or over what they should have taken in.) In this query I added fields that total Netsales (calculated from the first two fields) and another that calculates the percentage the variance is compared to their NetSales. The SQL behind the query is as follows:
Code:
SELECT tbl_OSRImport.Receipts, tbl_OSRImport.OverShort, [Receipts]-[OverShort] AS NetSales, [OverShort]/[NetSales] AS VarPerc
FROM tbl_OSRImport
WHERE (((tbl_OSRImport.OverShort)<>0) AND (([Receipts]-[OverShort])<>0));
This query works just fine. The calculated fields correctly display their results. The issue presents itself when I try to build a method for a user to run a report to see all the cashiers whose Varience Percentage (VarPerc) is equal to or within a range they specify. This allows the user to see all the cashiers who, for example, are more that 5% over or short. I have tried a number of criteria expressions in the query, with no success. I have gotten everything from a prompt asking me for paremeters to an error stating "Stack Overflow." I believe the problem has something to do with the fact that the numerical value that is calculated is a long string of numbers ending in letters and characters, which the Query displays as a neat and tidy Percentage. Below is an example of the data that I hope will explain this:
In the Query, the expression is: VarPerc: [OverShort]/[NetSales]
When the Query runs, the full numerical result is: -4.27103159497526E-02
Which visually is output as: -4.72%
Mathmatically (on a calculator using the same values) the equation is as follows:
-11.22 / 262.70 = -0.04271032
I think my attempts are failing becaue the query is trying to compare the user's input of (for example) 5, .5, .05, etc.... against the numerical value in the query result that includes the E-02 (above example.) So, rightfully it comes back with no results or an error.
I'm enrolling medical centers in a new multi-center database. There are a number of steps that must be completed before the center is enrolled in the project. I have a form that serves as a checklist. I want the textbox at the bottom of the form to display the percentage of steps completed. I guess you would have to count the number of fields on the form that are filled in, but I don't know how to do it.

Just in case you may ask why not add the field to the continuos form is that the issues and be quite lengthy and there may be lots of serial numbers on the form

I have not done much work in later version of Access. Now I found if I change a design in one form and similar forms (names are different) which are linked to the same tables got changed as well without openning them up and making changes. Is this something new with Access 2003?
Thank you very much for help.

Is it possible to switch log on
ie from within a db, opened as one username and password decide want to run db as other user , rather than close the db and reopen it (entering new usrname and password) , can I build a form where you just enter the new username and password, and continue running the db as the new currentUser?
Thanks Paul
Hi, hope someone knows the answer to this one...:p
We started a new business and built a db for expecting our work to happen a certain way, but now find it's very different and need to change the structure before it's too late to fix. Can someone please take a quick look at this idea & tell me if it's likely to cause major problems down the road?
People send in applications for specific groups/clubs. We thought they would arrive separately, so we set it up to enter each application and then add them to the Group listing one by one. TblApplication is a many-many with tblGroup, with junction tblGroupAppl. (People can be in more than one group.)
As we go along, however, we are finding the opposite: all the individual applications are being sent together by the club and so now we could actually turn this into a simple 1-many with tblGroup as parent and tblApplication as child. It seems like it would be much easier with queries and such if that extra step could be eliminated.
If I go through and put the GroupID on each record of tblApplication, can you see anything I might be inadvertently wrecking with this approach?
Any ideas/suggestions would be most appreciated!!
Thanks, this forum is amazing.

Hi,
I have a form with a subform that is set to continuous.
I have a field [Info][.RemovedP]. What i want is if RemovedP = -2 then i want the bg colour of JUST that record to be changed.
The default is blue, so what i will then get is blue bg for all the records accept if the RemovedP ='s -2, it will then be red.
Hope this is clear enough.
Thanks

Hi,
I have a form with 6 field boxes - What I want to do is - on change of any of the fields value will change the background colour of all the fields in that record.
When I go to the next record all the fields will be their original colour until I change the value in any of the fields again - however if I am browsing the records - no colour change takes place.
I do not know how to code this:confused: - I would appreciate any clues to solve this.
Many thanks
Cliff

Is there a way to capture all my changes to a database into some kind of change log??
Just wanted a little help please. I have about 100 option boxes on a form and I want to be able to change the names of the option box and its label. I want to name them from 1 to 100 sequentially. (i.e. option1, option2 ...).
When I create the controls it automatically names them option0, option2 etc. and label3, label5 etc.
I was going to change them via some code but I don’t know how to refer to a control in a form from design view.
Can anyone help please?
Thanks

I need to change the reference "Microsoft Access 9.0 Object Library" in Access 2000 with the "Microsoft Access 11.0 Object Library" but I can't de-select it 'cause it's used by the program. Another problem is that I tried to import the 11.0 copying the file and when I select it from the panel control it seems to import without problems, but when I search it in the list, the 11.0 doesn't exist.
How can I import it?
