I'm attempting to create a calculated field in a query called 'Test'. It's purpose is to determine if a certain field has a 'c' for closed and then returns the appropriate 3 months in a concatenated string. This previously worked when it was shorter. Now that I extended it for 2011 fields i'm getting an error that it is too long. I'm pasting the below code into the 'field' line of my query.
I am trying to export from Access to Excel. I am relatively new to this process. I am receiving an error that I am not using a valid path. I have tried to recreate the former path without any luck.
What I had done was to delete some old information that was making the former Excel sheet too large and create a more up to date database. I had to reformat the spreadsheet and export the new information to excel but when I pull it in it will not pull into the shared network drive without giving me the error message.
I am writing a select query and need an extra column which will be calculated using two tables.
The problem i am having is that i need to to say basically, return value A if value from table x < value from table y or return value B if value from table x > value from table y.
I tried using the HAVING clause but you cant use the if function with this it seems.
I have a query, and I want a field that shows the current balance as of that transaction, eg:__________________________________________________ _______|__Transaction ID__|__Type_______|__Amount__|__Balance__||__1______________|__Deposit_____|__£10______|__£1 0_______||__2______________|__Deposit_____|__£30______|__£4 0_______||__3______________|__Withdrawal__|__£15______|__£2 5_______|So far, I have this:SELECT [Transaction ID], [Type], [Amount], (SELECT Sum([Amount]) FROM tblTransactions AS tblTransactions2 WHERE tblTransactions2.[Transaction ID] <= tblTransactions.[Transaction ID]) AS BalanceFROM tblTransactionsWHERE [Account ID]=1;Although this does not look at the 'Type' field; it just adds the amounts; regardless of it being a deposit or withdrawal. I'm really not sure how to add this.Thanks in advance.
I have a several fields, calculated, that break apart a string of text at every open and closed parentheses. They work like they are supposed to with no errors. However, I want to use the result of this particular field in a combo box to populate another combo box with the other half of the string that will be split. The problem, I think, is that since the field is calculated, it will not allow me to select it in the combo box, saying that the field can't be edited.
So, I added the same field names to the table that the query was built on, however when I run the query, it says that there is a syntax error with a comma in the code. If I take out the table in the query, (not using the SQL side, just the query builder), it works again with no problem.The text I am breaking apart looks like this: 1.234(a)(1)(A)(2)(b)(i)(-a-)
I need this field to break the text up at the (1) mark, so the code I am using looks like this:
Code: PrinSubChap1: IIf([Sub2] Is Null,[PrincipleNumber],Left([PrincipleNumber],InStr(InStr(1,[PrincipleNumber],"(")+3,[PrincipleNumber],")")-0))
The other fields I have do the exact same thing, written the same way, with adjustments made to the position (+3,0).I have stared at this for awhile and can't figure out why it is giving me an error and research on the web doesn't appear to cover my question.
This is the error message: Syntax error (comma) in query expression '[mytable].[IIf([Sub2] Is Null,[PrincipleNumber],Left([PrincipleNumber],InStr(InStr(1,[PrincipleNumber],"(")+3,[PrincipleNumber],")")-0))]
I have a simple access database which up until now was working as it should. Then i made a Backup of the database Named it something different deleted certain data from the backup and when i went back into the original DB i now have #Name? where it used to calculate 2 fields.
One table with Student Basic Records with Course name and Total Fee
Tabel name Student_Rec and Fields are below ID, StudentName, Course Name, RollNo, Total Fee
then another table name Fee_Details for receiving dues in installments. ID, RollNo, FeeDue, FeePaid, Comments
Now i want the FeeDue Field should show the Balance feedue of each student
I mean it automatically check total fee due from student_Rec table and also check all previous entries for the same rollnumber in Fee_details Table and show the pending amount as FeeDue.
I got a problem, I have a calculated field which is sometimes empty due to no information being put there. Here is what I have in the afterupdate code:
FUTURE DATE = Me.Box123
The Box123 is my textbox and the FUTURE DATE is the datasource field.
When the field is blank I get the following error message:
I get a Run-Time Error "2113"; and the message "The value you entered isn't valid for this field"
I'm new to programming with Access but am attempting to create a new field in a table with an new date based on existing fields in the table.
The current fields are [Frequency], integer, [Risk], text, [Last Audit Date], date/time, and the new field is [Next Audit Date]. [Frequency] is a calculated field based only on [Risk] and is equal to "5" if [Risk] is "Low" and is "3" is [Risk] is "Medium" or "High", and [Frequency] is blank if [Risk] is (thus far it has never been empty).
What I need the new calculated field to do is return "N/A" (or blank, or anything easily separated really) if [Frequency] is blank, or if [Risk] is "Low" or "Medium". If [Risk] is "High", [Next Audit Date] should be equal to [Last Audit Date] plus 3 years. When I try to save the code, I get this message: "The expression could not be saved because its result type, such as binary or NULL, is not supported by the server."
This is my code now: IIf(IsNull([Frequency]),"",IIf([Risk]="Low","N/A",IIf([Risk]="Medium","N/A",IIf([Last Audit Date]="N/A","N/A",[Last Audit Date]+Year(3)))))
I am trying to create four tables: Company, Contact, Activities, and Opportunities.
I want them to relate hierarchically. A Company can have many contacts, contacts can have multiple Activities and Opportunities. But you can't have contacts without a company and you can't have Activities and Opportunities without having a contact. I want all PK's in all tables to link to one another, that you cannot create one without the other.
How I can do this in Access 2010?
YYMM00000-000000-A0000 CompanyID-ContactID-ActivityID or YYMM00000-000000-O0000 CompanyID-ContactID-OpportunityID
My query contains two calculated fields [TaxSavings1] and [TaxSavings2], which are based on some currency and number-type fields in one of my underlying tables.
I just created another field in my query which looks like: [TaxSavings1]+[TaxSavings2]. Instead of adding the two fields, it actually lumps the two numbers together. For example, if [TaxSavings1] =135 and [TaxSavings2]=30.25, it will give me: 13530.25. I need it just to simply add, i.e. answer of 165.25.
Does anyone know how to correct this? Thanks in advance.
I have a database we use to enter new account numbers and several other atribbutes about the account and it is split into a FE/BE with the BE in a shared folder. I have the open database using record-level locking checked but it seems to me that the database is opening up with page-level locking. Multiple users will receive a message that the current record is locked and I am sure that they are all not updating the same record. Does anybody have any idea's of what I can do? If nothing else I am going to have to recreate my form as an unbound form and see how that goes.
I don't appear to be getting any email notifications of posts in threads to which I have subscribed.I have Instant in my profile/userCP, but have not been receiving emails for some time. I edited my preferences today again -- I set it to daily, saved, then reset to instant, and saved. Thought that the edit may tweak some anomaly???
The company I work for has inventory at our physical location (our shop) and we also have inventory on trucks. I need to track the inventory in the shop and trucks so that when items get below a certain preset level I can run a report to find out how many of each part I need in each location. Create purchase orders and receive the inventory to whichever location I need it at. I would like to at some point be able to track where the parts are going.
I'm trying to use Access to send an automatic email reply upon receiving a request from a customer/employee, telling them that their request has been received and this is the tracking number and the due date of service completion. How can I do that? And I want it using Outlook because all the contacts are saved in Outlook and all emails sent and received through Outlook. And the version is Access 2010.
I am using Access 2003. I have a form that shows many calculated columms (some using =Dlookup(), other using =ufMyFunctions() stored in Modules). I update only 2 columns and the the form is set up as a ContinuousForm.
No problem, everything displays when I open it. Also in the form is a call (found in Modules) to function that updates a column on that table. Basiclly when opening the form it could do some updates. As I said everything works great when I open the form.
What I have noticed is that when I open the form using the following: stDocName = "frmIPMVPCosts" DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, acNormal DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acFirst DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acLast DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmIPMVPCosts", acSaveYes
all the columns display #ERROR, except the bound columns, which display correctly. The reason I do this method is on a change of value for some of the columns used in the calculated columns on the form, I need to force an update automatically. Instead of waiting on the user to open and close the form, I do it on a CLOSE event in another form that updated some columns used in the calculated columns. That way the reports can up to date also.
This is a single user system for now. Any ideas why the calculated columns are not visible? Is there some setting I have to do? I use this method on other forms that have no calculated columns and it all works.
I have a form with loads of calculated textboxes (using expressions). Some of these also rely on other textboxes that are being calculated when the form loads. If I load it once, some of the textboxes display #Error! but most don't. On closing it and reloading it a second time, the textboxes that displayed #Error! the first time now display a correct value and some other textboxes display #Error! instead.
Occasionally, every control works perfectly.
Is this something to do with when the calculation on each control is run and that if the dependent calculations don't finish quickly enough?

I tend to work with large amounts of data (extracts from company systems) and I create a lot of Access/VBA based tools to automate processes.
I have an annoying error which has always appeared but I don't understand the root cause of it.
When viewing a query, if I filter, I get an error message pop up (though after clicking through the error I can still use the filter function):
"syntax error missing operator in expression 'name of field'".
This seems to happen when I add several calculated fields. Here are some examples of the conditions and calculated field formulas I'm using in this current one:
Conditions: <>"CINEMATIC" And <>"SFX" Not Like "*_ZZ*" And Not Like "*test*" And Not Like "EP_*" [Forms]![FRMscriptPrintReview]![selectLangCombo]
I get the impression that its more of a bug with Access as the formulas aren't complicated really but need confirmation on this and if there is a way I can avoid it.
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.
Wasen't sure whether this is a Reporting thing or a Querie thing as it resides inbetween the two.
Basically (and believe me I thought this would be pretty straight forward!!!!), I am trying to create a chart from a query that returns the occurences of concerns raised each month for a year. The query returns the following:
In order that the user can specify a year that the chart will be applicable to, there is a field within the query that relies on the input of a year on an unbound text box on a form: [Forms]![frm_concern_frtpage]![Enter Year] is inputted into the critera box of this field.
However, if you try to create the chart it does not like this and just gives the following two error messages. If you enter a value into this text box and run the report containing the chart, it just gives a blank chart!!!!
Why is this error occuring?
I just want months along the X axis and the values from the Expr 1 column to be displayed on the Y axis!
I have a table with one primary key (ClientID) which is an autonumber (cannot be duplicated), and another field which is a number field which is set to a random 6 digits (also cannot be duplicated) whenever a new client record is created.
Now, the main database is on a desktop, and my partner and i are connected to this main database through our laptops whenever we're in the office. For the last 6 months, I had only the ClientID in the form (from the Client Table), and everything would work fine whenever we created a new record in the Form, even if we created a new record at the same time on our personal laptops, the numbers would automatically be increased by one w/ no error.
I just added the other field now, the regular 6 digit random number field, and sometimes (only sometimes) when we both have a different client and start a new record, we get error messages that says we're creating duplicates. When that error message comes up, one of us has to close down the form completely, and reopen and start a new record again. Not sure why this is happening. Here is the error message.
