We have a query that calculates the cost total of three different types of costs between three different parameters. I now need to run a query that prompts the user for the days currency conversion rate to create a new report. I don't want to permanently convert the original fields, it is purely a monthly report where when the report is run is shows both British £ and USD.
View RepliesHi,
I have tried to add up fields in a table but am struggling to get it to work. Can anyone help please.
In design view of tables, I have four fields (that I will be using in a a form eventually);
RaffleIncome
AlmsIncome
OtherIncome
TotalIncome
I want to get the TotalIncome field to automatically be the total sum of any or all of the other three.
I have tried putting =[RaffleIncome]+[Almsincome]+OtherIncome} in the control box of the TotalIncome field (a guess) in a form I made, and it gives me the total sum of the others three but does not save when I look at it in the table view. (that is, the TotalIncome column remains £0.00)
I am learning as I go along and am okay figuring some stuff out, but this has got me a bit frustrated, and I guess I cannot see the wood for the trees !
Thanks anyone
Adrian
when i am creating a query and need to be adding up all the data in the field, such as with the price needed to be paid overall the items, what do i have to do to create a part of the query or report to do this automatically for me? basically its a huge column of numbers that need to be simply added together and a grand total taken. please someone help. cheers.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a sharepoint list linked into my access database and every time when I work with queries and try to add up them up it causes the information to display in a text string. What to do in order to resolve this issue. For example, instead of $1,000+$5,000=$6,000 it will show 1,0005,000 as one string but not add them up.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI had to modify how I was storing data on one of my tables. I changed checkboxes to an option group with the values ranging from 1 to 4.I need to count each of these entries for a report which will run them into another formula.I am trying to use the below - obv I'm doing something wrong.
Code:
Police: Sum(IIf([OType],1,0))
And this is the original SQL for my queries if needed:
qry_BLT_RCCounts1
Code:
SELECT Year([tblBlotter].[EntryDate]) AS [Year], Month([tblBlotter].[EntryDate]) AS [Month], Sum(IIf([OType],1,0)) AS Police, Sum(IIf([OType],3,0)) AS Ramp, Sum(IIf([OType],2,0)) AS Terminal, Sum(IIf([OType],4,0)) AS AOA, ([Terminal]+[Ramp]+[AOA]) AS TRATotal, ([Police]+[Terminal]+[Ramp]+[AOA]) AS TotalChecks, Year(DateAdd("m",-1,[tblBlotter].[EntryDate])) AS PrevYear, Month(DateAdd("m",-1,[tblBlotter].[EntryDate])) AS PrevMonth
FROM tblBlotter
[code]....
I used an option group to classify a record in my database. It works great for this purpose, but I am at the point now of creating a query, and I would like to query based on these classifications (or options). Is this possible to do?
Also, for the option buttons, the value is numeric. When I create the Query (or a report off of that query) I would like the actual text values to display, not the data value Access is using.
I have a query that has 2 fields of currency labour rates (current rate and baseline rate), but sometimes there are some blanks in either of the fields and is causing my text field which has a Sum formula (Rates x Hours) to #ERROR and throws out my other calcs. The only way to find out which blank line items are throwing my query numbers out is to manually type in "Is Null" in the criteria.
However, I would like to keep this process fully automated so I tried to create 2 lots of option buttons for my form, one for each of the 2 fields of currency labour rates and after I click on either option button and then run my query it will show all the lines that have blanks. I was able to link 2 text boxes to the option buttons (Select Case - Case 1 - Me.txtBox1.Value = "Is Null") and then link the text boxes to the criteria field using [Forms]![frm_labour]![txtBox1]. However, none of this seems to be driving my criteria in my query.
Hi there, really simple question
I just wanted to know if I could edit the access interface so that the access help options would not be displayed, but I can add a link to my own created HTML help files for the system I have created. Is it possible?

This is probably something already talked about, but if i have a combo box that has an "Add New Entry" selection in it, and when the user clicks on it, i want to add what they want in to the table that the combo box chooses from. can I have that "Add New Entry" selection open a form with a text box, and then have that value enter into the table? What is the easiest way to do this?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to add calculations to queries based on columns in the query... it seems to randomly expect 'Expression' or 'Group by' as column types, and Im having to create 3 sets of queries following on from each other to de-dupe data and allow filters on calculated values.
Also I've got a function which turns a date into a quarterly cohort, e.g. Oct 2013 -> 20134. I use ot on a lot of dates. I created a VBA function, CohortQ used as follows in queries:
Cohort: IIf Year([InputDate]) < 1990 or Year([InputDate]) > 2020, 0 CohortQ([InputDate]))
In the VBA, InputDate is defined as a date
Code:
Function CohortQ(InputDate As Date) As Integer
If InputDate = 0 Then
CohortQ = 0
Exit Function
End If
[Code] .....
But when I run it on a date field, it gives me a data mismatch error. I can't step through as it's working on 600K rows.
If I put the function into the query,
Cohort: IIf Year([InputDate]) < 1990 or Year([InputDate]) > 2020, 0 Year([InputDate])*10+DatePart("q",[InputDate]))
it works.

I have two tables called "tblFundingBodies" and "tblGrants". I have a form that allows me to view all the records for each of the funding bodies. By this I mean, it shows information on a funding body but to see information on the next funding body, I must click on the next record button. Just wanted to clarify that it isn't in the form of a table.
This form also has a subform in the same format that shows each of the grants that funding body has provided. When I select the next record from the main form, it will show me the grants from the company in the next record. The field that has the funding body is a text box.
I want to be able to add a seach facility to the main form that allows me to search for a funding body and get back exactly what I have described above, but just the details on that funding body/grants. In other words, I want the form view of the funding body I search for with the sub form of the grants from that funding body, not in the form of a table where you can see them all at once, I want to be able to click through each grant in the sub form.
In Excel, I can dynamically add option controls to a frame on a form using the Control.Add method. Is there an Access Equivalent? I can only find Count & Item as Control. items.
It might have something to do with design view i guess.

I have always relied on Design View to create my queries, usually with great success, but in so doing, I have not become familiar with SQL view, so can't solve this problem:
I have a very simple query whose only function is to sum the payment amounts received for each contract number:
SELECT Payments.[Contract Number], Sum(Payments.[Payment Amount]) AS [SumOfPayment Amount]
FROM Payments
GROUP BY Payments.[Contract Number];
It is then used in subsequent queries to create an accounts payable report. It works great as long as at least one payment has been received on the contract, but if NO payments have ever been received, the Sum is actually null, so that record doesn't get included. I need a way for this query to return zero or currency zero 0.00 for all contracts with no payments yet, so those contracts will be included and the next query in line will see a zero.
In my search, it seems I need to make use of the IsNull function in my SQL (the check expression would be the sum of payments, the replacement value would be zero) OR I need to include a WHEN or WHERE in my SELECT statement above? I just don't know enough about SQL to make this happen .
I recently (temporarily)took over a position that uses an Access database that does not work properly, and I'm stumpped on how to fix it.
The query is supposed to pull all data where the "Date Overdue" field is less than today.
"Date Overdue" is a calculated value that pulls from the field "Date Input", which is in a text format (DDMMMYY) Such as 03NOV13. It is 8 days after the date input.
It prints out like this: "Monday, November 11, 2013" which is 8 days after the 3rd.
"Date Overdue" is set to this value:
Code:
DATE OVERDUE: DateValue(Left([DATEINPUT],2) & "/" & Mid([DATEINPUT],3,3) & "/" & Right([DATEINPUT],2))+8
"Date Overdue" has the criteria "<DateValue(CDate(Now()))"
I'm not going to go into all the different steps I've taken to try and get this to work because I've toyed with it a lot..
The output that I always seem to get is a mixture of all records that are available, before and after today's date, I just wanted those that are less than today.
I suspect that the date values that are shown in the query aren't true dates because when I click on the filter button it gives me this error:
"Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression 'DATE OVERDUE' "
NOTE: I'd like to add that this is just a regular Select query.
Code:
SELECT DateValue(Left([DATEINPUT],2) & "/" & Mid([DATEINPUT],3,3) & "/" & Right([DATEINPUT],2))
AS [PRODUCT END PERIOD], DateValue(Left([DATEINPUT],2) & "/" & Mid([DATEINPUT],3,3) & "/" & Right([DATEINPUT],2))+8
AS [DATE OVERDUE], [QBR ON EQUIP].DATEINPUT, [ALL ERRORS].[ERROR STATUS],
[Code] .....
I have an update query:
Query: DateExtractor
--------------------------------
Type: update query
Field: ProductionDate
Table: Production
Update To: DateSerial("2000"+Val(Mid([Code];1;2));"Mid([Code];3;2)";"Mid([Code];5;2)")
Field [Code] is a Text field and ProductionDate is Date/Time type, with short date format.
As I run query, there's an error that says "Microsoft Access didn't update 99 field(s) due to DateSerial,..."
I keep getting conversion errors, even though my field lengths and formats seem to match up. How to pursue a diagnostic for this?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI need a query to pick the bones out of sales transactional data like this...
Code:
CustomerName Currency
A Smith GBP

B Jones GBP
B Jones GBP
T Brown GBP
T Brown AUD
C Wong GBP
C Wong GBP
S Giles USD
S Giles USD
From the above data, only A Smith & T Brown ...have made purchases in more than one (different) currency. How on earth do I trap that with a query? (or will it need a macro?)
If so, the table is called sales & the columns are as per the data above (CustomerName & Currency)...
I have this expression I created and I want to know how to format it as currency. I know how to do it with a regular field but the option is not available for an expression.
The expression:
Code : Charge: IIf([Rate] Is Not Null,[Rate],"0.00")
I run a MakeTable Query on some data to COunt the number of records and Sum the Value of $$$ in a Currency field.The results produce a Number for the Count, but the SUM of the Balances is returned as text.
To get the SUM I use the expression SumBal: DSum("[Balance]","[XAM_data]").
Why it won't return the SumBal in Currency format?
I am increasing prices and after increasing I am left with 4 decimal places and am trying to figure out how to run an UPDATE query to round down prices to the nearest 5 cents, examples below:

42.4489 round to $42.40
2.49 round to $2.45
2.46 round to $2.45
2.44 round to $2.40
2.04 round to $2
I am using "Currency" format.
