I have a report in which a textbox generates numerical values and letter values. I want to...On report load - if textbox = numbers then hide otherwise show if it contains letter values.
View RepliesI've got a rapidly expanding database that I designed to do my quotes for work and now I'm trying to expand it to add up the invoice amounts when the jobs come to fruition. I've got 99% of it working well but as I'm not the only one entering data I'm trying to make it as foolproof as possible and here is my problem.
I have a multi-line textbox that receives 'vehicles' in an abbreviated format and I need to get them in order based on a sort column number in the appropriate table. This i can do but the code I have found removes the duplicates which I don't want as I can can two identical vehicles on the same job.
e.g
Vehicle Sort Order
UNT/FL 500
FL4/45 400
E7/F5 600
UNT/FL 500
I want as
FL4/45 400
UNT/FL 500
UNT/FL 500
E7/F5 600
Hi,
Could you help me with the following.
Lets say I have table with one of the column header as notes.
The notes is of type 'text'
In the notes column information like the following is typed out
MAX O.D 3.456" Min ID 1.2" and OAL 3.4"
or
MAX O/D 5.456" Min I.D 1.2" and Min Length 4.4 inches
I want to pull out the first numerical value (3.456 - first example, 5.456 -second example) and the last numerical value (3.4 -first example and 4.4 in second example). How would I be able to do this.
So the end result should be 2 more columns with max od as one and min length as the other.
Regards
George
Basically what I have is a form where a user has a drop down combo box that he can pick more than one value.
I then want to take what he has inputted e.g. Option1, Option2 and put that on a report in an unbound text box with another field value.
For example
=[Field1] & "/" & Option1/Option2
Those forward slashes are quite important as well, so any solution would need to include those.
Hi there
I have an ASP form that saves numerical data to an access database via an insert statement in the asp page.
The main problem i have is that i have some code that adds all the stored values together and provides a total on the screen for the user to print off.
I would like to save this 'total' value to a field in the table but cannot seem to get this to work.
So i thought of running a query in access that would add the sum total of a number of fields and store it to the total field.
Is this possible and how would i go about it?
Cheers
There is a text box in a form that user can enter the value.
How can I check if the value entered by user is already existed in the record of the linked table or not?
If the value (or record) do not exist, that new value/record will be added to
the table.
If the value do exist, just show the msgbox to indicate.
How can I do that ? :confused:
Thanks
What is the best solution to this problem? How can I automatically assign a numerical value to a field based on the information currently contained as test in another field? For example, if I have a field that ranks a film as “Poor, Fair, Good, Great, Superior”, how can I have a set value appear for statistical purposes that assigns a number to each of these values (Something like: If rating of current record = “Poor”, then ranking = “1”; If rating of current record = “Fair”, then ranking = “2”; If rating of current record = “good”, then ranking = “3”, etc. I also want to be able to have the values recalculate if someone changes their original opinion.

View 3 Replies View Relatedwe have a field in a report, and currently, there is a text box with a control source of
=IIf([Flag1]="Capital",[Reserve]-Sum([Text52]),"")
They want me to add to it, where if [Text106]="0",[Reserve]-[Text52], otherwise it's [Text106]="0",[Reserve]-[Text106].I am able to do this second part OK with

I am very new to access. I have made a database that holds certain company information.
As part of a process a company must fill in and complete form and send to me and once they have I enter a 'yes' to the form and then link directly to said form.
I am wanting to be able to run a report to be able to only see the companies where a certain field has not been filled in.
For example I have a field for doc 698, if I have had this form back I enter a yes in this field, if I havent had this back I leave it blank and these blanks are what I want to pull off in the report.
I have made queries and then just filtered to show blanks but I would like to have in report form.
Objective to have a report generated from a query (Based on a Storage Table) in the record-source however need to make adjustments to each record based on the query output ie User Id is outputted as number as it needs to be for everything else but on the report loading needs to run an sql query on that ID number to get the name and then replace that value with the name and so on for each record and each appropriate column
Problem:I can either change All of the records outputted with the first records info or nothing at all. i need this process to occur individually on each outputted record
I am trying to get calculated fields in my report to work but zero values in the data are throwing up #Div/0! and #Error! and #Num!
The main data fields I am trying to work with are:
VehicleReading
PreviousReading
VehicleLitres
My aim is to track mileage and consumption for a fleet of vehicles and show daily and weekly averages in mileage and consumption and then to flag 20% increase in consumption.
I have a calculated field in my report named Kilometers,
= [VehicleReading]-[PreviousReading]
And also a calculated field named Consumption,
=[Kilometers]/[VehicleLitres]
My sum and average calculation fields in the group footers are only working where there are values above zero in the Kilometer and VehicleLitres and Consumption fields.
In reality there are some days where there has been no travel, so some records will have a zero for the Kilometers field and there are also days when there has been no refueling so there is a zero for the VehicleLitres field.
I have tried using the expression builder to create an IIf function but to no avail. I have tried copying the syntax suggested by the Expression builder:
«Expr» IIf («expr». «truepart». «falsepart»)
However I keep getting error messages and despite troubleshooting and looking on the internet I can't seem to find a solution to this.
I am quite new to Access and have been working with a sample DB from Microsoft. I have been looking for some ways to filter a report based on the values in some comboboxes, and have followed the instructions on a website (can't post link yet).
I also looked at this file (**can't post link yet**) and it seems like everything works fine here. So I started a new DB with my own table, and tried to do the same thing as in this file.
Everything works fine.
But when I try all these steps in my own DB (the sample DB from Microsoft), it doesn't work.
When I filter by "Status" (f.ex: "In Progress" or "Not Started"), it seems to work fine.
However, when I filter by "Assigned To", I get the following error message: "Data Type Mismatch in criteria expression". So I googled this error message , but this field has nothing to do with any date formatting.
It gets even stranger when I try to filter by "Project":
Then a new pop up appears and asks me to enter the "Project".
No matter what I enter, the report turns blank
I have a report that is based on a query.
The query has two fields. Start and End Dates.
When I run the query the Parameter box asks for the dates by using <[Date1] and >[Date2]
What I want is to have 2 fields at the top of the report, that display the values I enter in these boxes?
Suppose we have a report that outlines several fields, one field shows the City. In the report, this week, we see 10 records "New York", 8 records "Houston", 7 records "London", 3 records "Paris" and so on.
Next week's report outlines different cities and different number of records. I need to have in the report footer a "recapitulation" , a field that would say :
New York 10
Houston 8
London 7
Paris 3
Total 28
Next week cities and number of records might not be the same, we may have
Tokyo 12
Singapore 14
New York 6
London 7
Can i make my report in that way that it will count the values without using VBA ? I tried the count values option but it counts the overall report, does not take into consideration the different values.
I have a report that returns timesheet info on employees. The group-by is on the employee, and the detail records are projects billed-to, including how much time billed to each project by that employee.
Parts of the detail line are accomplished by dlookups, and I was hoping to sum() these values on each employee/group, in the employee footer area.
Per the image, the circles show where I hope to show the sum'd value from text boxes indicated by the arrows...
In the group footer on employee I've set text boxes to:
Code:
=Sum(DLookUp("ProjectLeaveHours","qryTimeRpt_LeaveOnly"))
...basically taking the dlookup accomplished in the detail line and trying to sum() it... No luck.
Code:
=Sum([RADefaultHours])
...using the name of the control where the dlookup is accomplished prompts me to declare the value of the "RADefaultHours" - indicating the report text box control doesn't know what I'm talking about...
Code:
=Sum([Reports]![rptTimesheetReport]![RADefaultHours])
...trying the above again, but hoping to properly declare what is being sum'd... No luck.
...I saw some posts regarding setting "running sum over group" - and I tried that on the text box in the footer where the sum() is being attempted, but no luck.
Can I do this this way? Perhaps I need to set some other variable that is more agreeable than a 'textbox with a dlookup' to do the sum when grouping?
In Access 2003 I have a form, at the footer of which I want to put some summary information. One of which is a count of the number of purchases over £500. I have tried many variations after searching the posts on this site but the only one which does not return me an error of some kind with the expression is
=IIf([Bought For]>"500",Count([Bought For]),0)
where 'Bought For is the reports listing of the purchase prices in a given date range when opening the report, but the value returned in my test is '0' when it should be '2' as the test file has two purchases of over £500.
I'm trying to make a report that a untrained user can use to review the relevant data from the database I'm creating. All of the work I've done so far has been directly in the tables . Here's a quick outline of my general data organization:
Department:
DepartmentID(PK)
DepartmentName
Employee:
EmployeeID(PK)
EmployeeName
DepartmentID(FK)
Needs_Work (check box)
[code]....
Basically, I want the user to select a department to view using a combo box or option group (which I'm not sure of how to do in a report). Then, I want to view the employees within that department sorted first by whether or not the Needs_Work check box is selected, and then by how many of their competencies are unchecked.
I have 3 dynamic combo box. a combo box > filters b combo box and b filters c combo box. showing the field names whereas connected on field ID's. But my problem is when I am running reports (reports in form of charts) on the data saved in the backend through these combo boxes on the form. When I run report it shows ID's of combo box B instead of field name.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI am having problems getting Access to evaluate whether a textbox is empty using VBA behind my form. I'm currently using Access 2000 on a Windows98 machine, but I also tested this in Access 2003 on an XP machine and got identical results.
The way I’d like the code to operate is if the “Product1” field is empty, the value taken from another form would be pasted there, and if it isn’t empty, go to the “Product2” field and if that field is empty, paste it there, otherwise go to the “Product3” field, etc.
I have tried using If IsNull(“Product1”) Then… but Access seems to think that the unbound textbox with no default value isn’t empty.
I tried using If ("Product1" <> "*") Then… but Access again seems to think that there is something in that unbound/no-default value textbox.
My code looks like this:
If ("Product1" <> "*") Then
DoCmd.GoToControl "Product1"
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdPaste
DoCmd.OpenForm "ActiveProduct", acNormal, "", "", , acNormal
DoCmd.GoToControl "Description"
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdCopy
DoCmd.OpenForm "Order Form", acNormal, "", "", , acNormal
DoCmd.GoToControl "ProdDescr1"
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdPaste
DoCmd.Close acForm, "ActiveProduct", acSaveNo
DoCmd.GoToControl "ProdQty1"
DoCmd.Close acForm, "Product Lookup form", acSaveNo
ElseIf ("Product2" <> "*") Then
DoCmd.GoToControl "Product2"
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdPaste …
End If
I admit that my VBA skills are limited, but after having scoured these forums as well as Access help and examining the logic of my code, I am completely stumped. Any suggestions you can offer would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
I have a textbox on my main form that calculates the total of a field on the sub-form. It works well and display the correct ammount on the textbox when I load up the form, but if I do changes the values of the sub-form it doesn't update at all ! I need to close and open the form again to see the changes.
How can I update the textbox so it always reflect the values on the sub-form?
Code:
Private Sub Check253_AfterUpdate()
Me.Text255 = Environ("UserName")
If Me.Check253 = -1 Then
Me.Text254 = DLookup("[Lot]", "[tblAutoGen]", "[Inuse] = -1")
Me.Text256 = DLookup("[Exp]", "[tblAutoGen]", "[Inuse] = -1")
Me.Text258 = DLookup("[Lot]", "[tblEthanol]", "[Inuse] = -1")
Me.Text260 = DLookup("[Exp]", "[tblEthanol]", "[Inuse] = -1")
Me.Text262 = DLookup("[Lot]", "[tblDPBS]", "[Inuse] = -1")
Me.Text264 = DLookup("[Exp]", "[tblDPBS]", "[Inuse] = -1")
Me.Text266 = DLookup("[Lot]", "[tblTE]", "[Inuse] = -1")
Me.Text268 = DLookup("[Exp]", "[tblTE]", "[Inuse] = -1")
Me.Text259.Value = Date
End If
End Sub
How do I clear the values in each textbox if check253 = 0 rather then going to each and clearing them?
I have created a report and i am having trouble with the =Sum() function. I would like to sum all the values that are held in a text box which has the expression of '=[BookingSF_Qry subreport].[Report]![TotalSF]*[HowManyDays]'. No matter what i try i cant get a total value of all of these.

View 12 Replies View RelatedI am designing a book collection database where each book can contain multiple authors. I used three tables; tblBooks, tblAuthors, tblBookAuthorJOIN. The tblBookAuthorJOIN allows me to create a subform with drop down combo boxes in the Books form linking multiple authors to each books indexed field. The Author table contains the usual FirstName, LastName, MiddleName fields. I would to be able to display the names of each author in the forms header but I am having difficulty.
For example a book may have two authors such as:
Authors table would contain values such as
Last Name: Grisham
First Name: John
Last Name: Twain
First Name: Mark
Textbox in header would display: John Grisham; Mark Twain
The authors would be displayed in the following format in the same order as listed in the subform datasheet.
Attached is a graphic of the form.
