Is there a way to calculate the mode value in a query?
In a summary query, I need to return the value that shows up the greatest number of times in a certain column of a table. Is there a function built in to Access or an easy way to perform this, or do I have to make my own function to handle this?
I'm trying to show the modal value of a column in a query that only has text in, not numbers. I want to present this in a text box in a report.
My report already has a query as its record source that only shows data for a given year and given month, these are chosen using parameters created in the query. Thus all I need to figure out is how to show the modal value for the column "Categories" on the report somehow.
Here are my parameters:
Query: [Formula Query]
Column: [Categories]
When I click on the design mode of a query object, generally MS Access defaults to the GUI design view... but in this one application, the design view is pulling up queries in SQL mode first...
If I want to set it to the GUI design mode, I have to either hit design again or run the query then hit design to have it pull up in the regular design mode. Is there a setting or something I am missing? Seems that it only does this when the SQL code is reltively involved (i.e. the simpler queries pull up in the normal design view.
I have a field that is giving me the number of business days between a period of time and then I want to subtract that number - the person's PTO time to see the actual days they were available...when I simply type the number in (see below) it works great but I want to set up a prompt that will ask me how many PTO Days to calculate as it will be different for each person I am quering...is this possible?
View 9 Replies View RelatedHow to calculate the percentage of kilometers per order compared to the total number of kilometers per carrier.
In the attached screenshot send queries where I need formula.
Mileage on the orders of the field called "Korkma" . The formula should look like: # [Korkm] / [total kilometers per carrier] #.
I do not know how to get the total mileage driven by the carrier (the carrier is in the query in the Field Name Plate) for the month.
For example:
date 1.1.2013.,Plate:Pribus Korkm= 37
date 2.1.2013.,Plate: Pribus,Korkm=56
date 10.1.2013.,Plate: Pribus, Korkm= 70
Formula: [37]/[163] = 0,23
[56]/[163]= 0,34
[70]/[163]= 0,43
I have two excel tables that I linked in access. From excel tables I created query that gives me all data I need.
First table has data of periods and prices of apartment per period. For example:
PropertyID 1111
PropertyName Apartment Zagreb Mila
StaringDateOfPeriod 1.1.2015
EndingDateOfPeriod 1.7.2015
PriceForPeriod 100
.
.
PropertyID 1111
PropertyName Apartment Zagreb Mila
StaringDateOfPeriod 1.7.2015
EndingDateOfPeriod 31.12.2015
PriceForPeriod 120
Now as you can see I have apartments with prices that change per periods.
Second excel table gives me information of total paid service that customers need to pay , number of days that he will stay and CheckIn and CheckOut dates of those guest.
In calclutated fields in query I created calculations like TotalyPiad(from 2. table) - OwnerPrice*TotalyNumberofDays . I guest good result IF i have reservations that matches or is it BETWEEN StartDate and EndDate of periods.
BUT If I have reservation that is overlapping , where CheckOut of guest is 1 or more days > that EndDate of selected period I have problem with calculation because my calculation is based on WRONG price in that period.
For now what I manage to do is to create separate field in query where I calculated number of days that are out of range
CHECK_IN - StartingDate of period
CHECK_OUT -EndingDate of period
Check-in date - starting date of reservation of guest
Check-out date - ending date of guests reservation
nabavna cijena - owner price
Code:
PreklapanjePerioda: IIf([Check-out date]>[CHECK_OUT];[Check-out date]-[CHECK_OUT];Null)*[nabavna cijena]
But still when I calculate those number of days I multiple those number of days with old period.
So How can I MULTIPLE THOSE NUMBER OF DAYS WITH PERIOD +1 , I meen next period not this old one just for those days that are out of range? [CHECK_OUT] +1 doesn't work it just add extra day in my CHECK_OUT filed
My final idea is :
Separately calculate in one field number of days that are out site of range
Calculate number of days of reservation of guest that are in range
= make sum of those two fields
From that I will create report which I will send to our owners of properties (number of reservations, reservations details, price that they need to pay to us ...)
I also thought this could be possible to make using VBA but I am still not skilled anough in it. Also I was thinking of creating calendar where I would that add those two queries but how to create simple calendar in Access. Is there some template for simple calendar in Access?
I have a AS400 database table that stores time in the following manner 70535 (hour, minutes, seconds). Utilizing access 2010, I have used the left, mid, and right command to separate hour, minute, and second into their are separate table values 7 05 35. The AS400 database stores 3:15:30pm in the following manner 151530.
At this point, I used the string function and created the following table value 7:05:35.
Overall, I am needing to convert 70535 to time and then calculate lapse time where the employee name is the same. my database has about 2500 unique employee records per day. I am utilizing a query to perform the above.

I have a problem with calculating the total qty of two fields.
Code:
QtyMapics: Nz([MapicsQty];0)
QtySubComp: Nz([SubComponentQty];0)
TotalQty: [QtyMapics]+[QtySubComp]
When I calculate the values of the fields it pastes the values after each other.For example: if you have the values 1 and 2 (which should become 3) then the result is a value of 12.I've tried changing the function to SUM() but that didn't work.The reason I am using NZ() is due to the fact that some values have a NULL value in one or both of the fields and if NZ is not included it will not calculate anything.
To calculate the percentage of the number of passengers in the total number of passengers per single order using query:
Code:
SELECT
Code:
A.Date, A.Plate, A.Pax, A.Agency, A.Code, IIf ([pax]> 0, Round ([Pax] / (SELECT Sum (Pax) FROM Sheet2 as B WHERE B.Date = A.Date and B.code = A.code), 2), 1) AS KOR
FROM Sheet2 AS A
ORDER BY A.Date;
Query works fine in all cases except one, and that is when the encounter a same order in one day
01/04/2013. D_1 0pax
01/04/2013. D_1 5pax
in this case the formula gives a coefficient of 1 to 0 passengers and coefficient of 1 to 5 passengers, should be given a score of 0 0 of passengers and 1 to 5 passengers

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to build a query with an iif statement to calculate expiration dates within a query. For some reason what i'm trying to do is not working as expected.
Here's the situation. Every employees with an exception of two employees in the company has an expiration 2 years after the class took place. The two exceptions are the certified instructors who's training certification is good for three years.
I've created a query with the employeeid, training subject, and maxoftraining date.
I'm trying to write an if statement to give me the expiration date based on the above information. Here's what I have so far; however its not calculating based on the criteria.
Expiration: IIf([tblemployee]![EmpID]=1 Or 2,DateAdd("yyyy",3,[maxoftrainingdate]),DateAdd("yyyy",2,[maxoftrainingdate]))
At this point in time, all "expiration" dates are showing + 3 years rather than just the Employee ID's 1 and 2 and the rest +2 years.
Basically I have a report that shows any 'Issues' that wasnt closed within the KPI Target.
I have the report working, but I simply want to do a count of how many days the observations overran the 'Target Date of Closure'.
The report also shows observations that are not closed but passed their Target Date of Closure. These observations will not have a 'Actual Closure Date', but I would like to still have a count of how many days its overrun closure.
This is a formula I tried to piece together but obviously not correct as it's not returning anything;
IIf(IsNull([Issues]![Actual Closure Date]),DateDiff("d",[Issues]![Target Date of Closure],
Date()),DateDiff("d",[Issues]![Target Date of Closure],[Issues]![Actual Closure Date]))
I have a table, tblDailyCalls, that contains agent_name, date, calls_ answered, and talk_time. Ideally on a form, the user will select an agent, enter the date range in txtStartDate and txtEndDate and a report opens to show what the total amount of calls and talk time is for that date range.
All I've managed so far is doing a simple expression on the report itself to sum the fields I want. But my method returns every date in the range. I would like to only display the total.
I've been trying with Totals in the query and crosstab queries but am not familiar with them.

I obtained data for earnings by industry for men and women over time (5 years). I developed crosstab query that showed the average earnings for men and women for the 5 years.
Now I want within this query to calculate the differential between men and womens average earnings and calculate a percentage within this crosstab query. I tried to use Expressionbuilder with little luck.
I found the attached example a while back (can't find the site again though ) and it calculates a moving average. I've hacked out the parts I need for my own work and I can create my moving average query without an issue.
However, I need to extract the MA data into a table so planned on using append. I kept getting type errors so I tried make table to see what type it was creating and it appears to be Short Text rather than a number.
I've added an extra button and Make Table query to the example.
As far as I can tell from the code, the moving average value when calculated is a Single. However, when I write it to the table, its a Short Text.
How do I make the created Table use Number Type for my calculated moving average?
Using Access 2013
Basically, I have a database table that is maintained every week. It is about e-mail account licenses for Office 365.
Each column represents a week of license data for every mailbox account which is about 10 000 plus users with the date as the field headers( something like "License information as of 06122013").
Basically, I have created 52 queries based on the license type I require to be calculated & I have a form created to control it. However, right now it is all output only as I have yet to create any user parameter to specify on any of the queries about the date I want
As I am currently unsure how to specify all the queries to use one field date header which I want the user to specify via drop down list in order to calculate all the licenses on this specific date.
For example, if I want to see the license information for 06/11/2013, I would choose "License as of 06112013" & it would then run all the queries based on the header specified earlier & output that information on the form.
Right now the queries are all configured as the "Select" type.
I have to make program for a school
Some students pays fee for one month, some for two months and some 3 months.
School administration requires me to print notices for every student according their payment mode after comparing with next due months and already paid months.
Some notices will show their fee for the months as
(Id= 1 Jan-14, Feb-14),
(Id=2 Jan-14, Feb-14, Mar-14),
(Id =3 Dec-13, Jan-14) Considering as Id 3 has not paid due month i.e. Dec-13 Fee and his payment mode is 1 month only.
Here Id means Id number alloted to Students.
I am trying to create a query that has a self referencing running total based on the values (point totals) of itself (running total of values in the running total column that have already been calculated for all previous records) plus the total of new points being added in the current record, less the total of points being removed in the current record. This running total can never go below 0, if it does, the running total should restart at zero and add in only new points and begin the process again with the next records

1- maintbl (date, truckNo fillinQty,rate,cost, odometer, mileage)
Query:
1- mainquery (based on maintbl)
Form:
1- mainfrm (Based on mainquery)
i want to calculate mileage :
example:new odometer reading - previous odometer reading / filled in qty
example: 2000 km - 1000 km / 200 liters = 5 liters /km
Objective: How query will automatically calculate the difference of new odometer reading and last odometer reading for a specific truck number and divide it with filled in qty of fuel?
Hi to all,
I would like to ask here for advice on MS Access 2000 application.
When a user logs in, he should be able to use the Access 'Query' screen in read-only mode. In other words, he should be able to generate queries by selecting tables and columns, or using the wizard, but the results of those queries may never have any influence on the data in the database. So: SELECT queries only.
Users should be allowed to execute those queries, but are not allowed to access the tables, forms, or any other items directly.
Is there a way to achieve this?
Thank you
Ori

How to apply self-defined function in Query Design Mode?
any hint is appreciated, thank you in advance~
I have had to use my first crosstab queries.
I now understand that when opening and saving crosstab queries Access (2010) runs that query to ascertain the column names. Unless you hard-code them. Running the query takes at least 20 minutes.
I have hard-coded where I can, but one report takes arbitrary dates so I can't hard-code them.
I believe that turning off AutoCorrect might make a difference to whether the query runs - but I don't want to turn it off.
i have a table with fields "[DATE OF BIRTH]", "age", "temp-age"
i have a query that calculate the age:
example; the query will get user to input the "temp-age" and upon "temp-age" is input and "ok" on the query, it will calculate a person's age and store the value inside table "age".
however, the calculated value for the age have some data problem. for example, when a person whose age is yy:mm 24:05 the age inside the table will be 1924:05. there will be a additional "19" at the age.
what cause the additional "19" problem?
---------------------------------------------------------------------
my query in design view is like this; (see attachment)
it uses " [temp-AGE]-[DATE OF BIRTH] " to calculate the age and store into table "age".
I need to pull 2 fields from 2 different queries, then calculate them. Those 2 queries has the same structure, just one is last year's data, the other is this year's. :rolleyes:
I tried using the 3rd queries to combine them, then calculate from there, but then I had no clue where to go from there. I don't sql...I was wondering is there anything to do with sql? :confused:
I'm stucked so far, how can I solved it? :mad:
