Question On Query To Flag A Field Based On Calculated Data
Apr 25, 2005
I have a table with numerous fields including timeIn and timeOut field (these are date/time format). I need to find out how many people were clocked in during each operating hour (based upon their time in and time out). How can I run a query that will allow me to use the times in and out to 'flag' each hour that each person was on duty (a new field for each hour) so that I can run a count on the completed data for every hour?
I am trying to construct a crosstab that averages a calculated field from a previous query. It is returning a "Data Type Mismatch" message.
The field I am trying to average is a subtraction of dates to find total days. I assume my field is not a number so I have tried to wrap it in CDbl() to change the type.
The formula is
Code: CASE_DAYS: CDbl(IIf([Actual Close Date]-[Creation Date]>=0,[Actual Close Date]-[Creation Date],""))
the table 2 is the source of a form that will let the user change the numbers. table 1 should change Date1 and Date2 Fields based on the two fields (3months) and (6months) if i want to make a lookup wizard it should be changed manually and if i make a calculated field i can't find other tables in the expression builder
I have a query with a Date field for EndDate (the dates for end-of-week, Fridays in our case) and another field for Sales (number of sales, not dollars).I want to add 4 calculated fields that represent weeks and have the Sales appear in the correct column (field) for that date.So I will have columns for 10 July 15, 17 July 15, 24 July 15 and 31 July 15 and I want the Sales for each record to land in the correct date column, based on the EndDate column. (The 4 fields is just for the sake of the example, I will actually be having dozens of these calculated date fields).I tried to do it by setting up the 4 calculated fields like:
10Jul15: Sales and then adding Criteria like: EndDate = #10/07/2015# It doesnt work.
Hi, I have a query that contains the results of repeated tests on a number of persons. The goal of treatment is to get those test results below 50. I need to find, for each person, the period of time (with a start and an end date) during which their test was below 50. The dataset looks like:
Hello, Bit of a newby to all this. Am trying to use a text box as a calculted field. I am doing so using an sql statment in control source The sql stat is built and tested using build query and then copied and pasted from sql view)
I keep getting #name? as an error.
I have managed using dlookup of the same saved sql to return the required value (which works) but find it to be a bit slow and clunky so wanted to give this a go instead. If somebody can have a look at the query below I would much apreciate.
=(SELECT Sum(QryInout!CostExVATGBP) AS TTlCostExVATGBP FROM QryInout &_ WHERE (((QryInout.StockImportNoJoinToAll)=[Forms]![FrmSPurch]![ImportNoNew])) &_ GROUP BY QryInout.ProdType &_ HAVING (((QryInout.ProdType)="Freight"));)
Note that I have tried with and without the &_ and also with or with out the brackets..
I have two tables that are joined - called A and B. A has two fields, "PLACE" and "RAND" and is joined to B via field "RAND". Other than "RAND", B has several fields named 01 TOTAL, 02 TOTAL, 03 TOTAL, etc...for about 60 fields.
The "PLACE" field in table A has data that is 01, 02, 03, ect.... How do I structure a query so that whatever "PLACE" is, I can match the XX TOTAL value? In other words, i need to have the query field header be somehow dependent on the value in "PLACE".
Hi. I have an Order form that is based on an Order table. In this form there are also a number of text boxes (not bound to table) with calculations, and one final text box with a deadline based on these calculations. Is it possible to filter this form based on the deadline? I can do this by making the form based on a query, but then again I'm not able to edit the information in the form.... Please anyone???
Hi, just so you are aware, I am totally clueless when it comes to Microsoft Access. I tried finding tutorials and help online that I could use to do this but I'm having trouble understanding what I'm supposed to do. I have two huge tables linked to each other by an ID number. One table contains multiple records with the same ID number while the other does not. There are records in the first table that don't appear in the second one, and there MAY be entries in the second table that don't appear in the first table. The second table has a flag that I would like to add to records in the first table that appear in the second table. What is the easiestt way to do this? This may be an extremely stupid question or it may be very hard, I'm not sure which, though I'm leaning toward it being a stupid question. Thank you in advance for your help.
i have a total in an invoice with is a tabulated form with totals in the detail footer I want to post the calculated total (control) to a table. How ia this done.
I am creating a database that will record the details of approx 30 shops and will store information on Annual Turnover, Profit, Return, etc.
I need to create a field that will calculate the increase/decrease in annual turnover between the current year and the previous year.
So far I have created a subform that will show the last 12 years of data for the particular shop, but now I need to add a calculated field that will get the current years turnover and also reference the turnover for the previous year, i.e. the previous record., and display the result. The other thing that I will need to do, is to have this field not calculated for the initial years trading, so this field will need to be hidden in the first record.
Can someone please offer some advice on how to go about achieving this???
BUT IT JUST GIVE ME THE VALUE LIKE A NUMBER SUCH AS e.g. 50 ,150 but instead of that i want currency data type of that calculate field for e.g. 50 become "$ 50".
Okay so in able to do that i go to properties Sheet of the field of the query and change Format to Currency ..BUT IT DOESN'T CHANGE !!!
I've read over and over that calculated data is bad, that's fine with me... but here is my dillema...
I have four fields that interact with my calculation in a single form. There is only one table in the database.
AmountF (The stored data in the table) (amount financed) FC (calculated by =[amountf]*.25) (finance charge) Amount Paid (used in calculation of total due) total due (calculated by =[amountf]+[fc]-[amount paid])
The math already works, everything works. I can choose to print the form and it looks great. However, I would like for it to (when I'm done printing the form) somehow save the total due data to the AmountF column in the table. AmountF is in the same line as all the other information, so I would like it to not create a new record just update the old one.
All four of these fields have a text box in the form for themselves.
I am trying to change the data type of a field in a table from calculated to something else. It gives me the error "this data type cannot be changed once the field has been saved"
I would like to append a text item to each value in a calculated field. consider the field name is "Division" and I want to append the word "Division" to the values put out by the field "Division"
My attempt was: Division & " " & "Division". This produced an error in the report.
I have a stock-type record and a stock-item record. I want to update a flag on the stock-type record called instock to be true if there are related stock-item records and false if there are no related records. Does anyone know how to run a updating query that will do this? I am fairly new to this so I'm sorry if this is a bit of a basic question. Thank you for your help in advance.
I have an inventory transaction file that has quantity on hand as a calculated field. I am trying to add this unbound field to a report using a query but I can't figure out how to add my quantity on hand field to the query since it is a calculated field and not a bound control.
I can't seem to find a problem like this already answered....
I have these two calculated fields:
dtmNPacketDue: IIf([strRevTypeNIRB]="Full" Or [strRevTypeNIRB]="Termination(Full)",[dtmNIRBMtgDate]-28,[dtmNExpDate]-28)
dtmCOIDueDate: IIf([strRevTypeNIRB]="Termination(Full)" Or [strRevTypeNIRB]="Termination(Expedited)","N/A",[dtmNPacketDue]-42)
When I use the one in RED in a calculated field in a new query, things are peachy. But when I use the one in BLUE in a calculated field in a new query, the message is #Error
My Calculated field (which produces an #Error) in the new Query is:
2ndCOINotification: [dtmCOIDueDate]-14
(if I insert [dtmNPacketDue] instead...it works
Perhaps my problem is that dtmNPacketDue (a calculated variable) is part of the BLUE calculated variable....??
I am trying to create a calculated field in a query that subtract 2 fields within the same query.
That is, i have a FiscalWeekStart and FiscalWeekEnd pulling from a table. I created a CountofWeek field that count the weeks between the FiscalWeekStart and End using "DateDiff("w",[FiscalWeekStart],[FiscalWeekEnd])".
I also have a HolidayWeek field that pulls from a table using a Count expression in the query.
My goal is to subtract the CountofWeek and the Holiday week calling it NonHolidayWeek using "NonHoliday Week: IIf(IsNull([CountofHolidayWeek]),[CountofWeek],[CountofWeek]-[CountofHoldayWeek])"
BUT IT IS ASKING FOR PARMETERS ON THE "CountofHolidayWeek".
It all works fine and dandy, but once I set it to sort by this field and run the query, it gives me the parameter prompt, asking me to enter the Parameter Value of FieldA and then for FieldB.
Is there a work-around for this within the query?
The only other solution I have in mind is making another table from this query, and then creating another query just for sorting said table, but that seems inefficient at best.
PROBLEM: i want to search for all the "amount outstanding" that >0 HOWEVER when i put that as the criteria it asks me to enter values for other calculated fields
I hope someone can help as I am stumped at present. I have created a calculated query using dateadd. I have a table that has date fields, ServiceContractAgreed and ServiceFrequency. The service frequency field holds a value of 3,6,9 or 12 in months. Using dateadd I can add the months to the ServiceContractAgreed field in a field called NextService, ie =IIf(IsNull([ServiceContractAgreed]),"N/A",DateAdd("m",[ServiceFrequency],[ServiceContractAgreed])) This works fine but what I want to do now is create a parameter query to search the NextService field, using the between operator to search between dates. I've created a new query to do this but get every record back, no matter what dates I put in. It's probably something really simple to do but I'd be really grateful for any advice!
