Please help me with the round function. I want .5 to round to 1.
Here is an example of my data: (18+18+18+20)/4 = 18.5 rounds to 18. I want it to round to 19.
I used the following expression:
RoundACT Composite Score: Round((([Column1]+[Column2]+[Column3]+[Column4])/4),0)
Thank you.
I'm trying to trouble-shoot an undocumented datbase built by someone else and running into a recurring problem. She has it set up where a macro runs several queries. When these macros are run, the queries cause "Division by Zero" errors which stops the macro in its tracks. The following is a query that causes this error, but by looking at this query, I see no place where a division takes place. I'm assumming that another porblem is occuring and Access just states that it's division by zero error when it's actually something else.
1) Has anyone seen a "Division by Zero" error when running a query when it's actually something else causing the problem?
2) Can anyone see from the query what could possibly cause this and give me a hint as to a good way to trouble-shoot these queries to possibly handle whatever problem is occurring.
Thanks,
The query is as follows:

I have a field in the a query with the following:
% OVER NB: 1-([Monthly MTA Table]!NB/[main inventory table]!PRICE)
I then format the column in properties to percent
When I try to put anything in the criteria I get an error "Division by zero"
I want to only the records that are greater then 80%
I have a query with the following calc. but it has an error of 'division by o' when I run it. Some of the figures may be null or 0 within the fields and I still want it to return a % figure result
I know its probably the iif function but am not sure how to use it in this instance.
Process %: Sum([Process volume]*[se]/[minutes worked])
Thanks
I have a table named "Patients" with a field named "Code" and another field named "Patient" which contains the full name (LastName space FirstName) "Chaviatsos Nick" for example.
I want to make an other table from the table "Patients" with three fields:
1. A field named "Code"
2. A field named "LastName" which will contain the Last Name of the field "Patient" of the table 'Patients" and
3. A field named "FrstName" which will contain the Frst Name of the field "Patient" of the table 'Patients"
How Can I manage this?
Hi all
I've been using the following code to show Random records from an Access Database, the only problem with it is that every now and again it throws a "division by 0 error" any ideas how i can fix?
Code:strsql_videos = "select top 5 * from items ORDER BY RND(id)*(id*1000) MOD datePart('s', NOW()), id;"set rs_videos = server.createobject("ADODB.recordset")rs_videos.open strsql_videos, conn_videos, 3, 1, adCmdText
Iam hoping its possible with a few lines of code rather than some elaborate fix :P
So, I have some complicated calculations I am aliasing in my SQL query. My end goal would be to sort by my final calculation from all the other calculations I have performed but I am running in to some issues. I know I can't sort by referencing the alias itself without saying order by (column number). My calculations are usually pretty small (around .001 and up). Whenever I order by the column number I would like to use (select... from... where...order by 73) I get a "Division by zero" error in access. I figured this was an issue with how small the calculations were, so I multiplied by 1000000, then ordered by that column number. Still division by zero...I went ahead and changed all 0 values to 1, still division by zero. There are no zero values in the column itself, it's either 1 or something in the thousands. I can order by other columns, just not the one I want to use. I don't want to have to re-do my entire calculations in my order by clause.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have made a query with to take the percent difference of two mileages and then if they are greater than 2.5% to put a 1 or if not a 0. I try and put a 1 in criteria in order to only see the ones that are changed by greater than 2.5% and I get the divide by zero error. Any ideas how to fix this problem.

I am running a very simple query that divides profit over turnover to show the margin. I have many queries throughout my database that do this, here is my little formula;
Margin: Round(([profit]/[Turnover])*100,2)
Now, this runs just fine but if I put in a criteria of <10 I get the division by zero error. The reason I am confused is that there are no zeros or error values or even negative values in either of the profit or turnover columns?
Also I have an almost identical query in another database that has a <5 criteria in it and it works a peach.
I have searched but all I am getting is the usual definition of the division by zero error.
What sum can I use to round down on a report
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi,
I am running a query that has this function
MyRoundedValue: Round([Bonus Total],2)
I am trying to round up the value in Bonus Total.
Currently the result shows 5140.602 and I want it to round up and show 5140.61
Is this possible? For the life of me I cannot figure it out..
Thanks

Hi,
Need a little help with rounding up. In A2K I have a form with a textbox that displays a security deposit. Security deposit is calculated by rounding the payment to the next $25 increment, hence a payment of 324.53 should have a security deposity of $325.00, but a payment of $325.01 should have a security deposit of $350.00. The code I am using for a datasource for txtSecurity deposit usually works correctly, but for this payment ($324.53) it rounds to $350.00. Here is the code..
=(([txtPayment]25)*25+[txtSecDepRndTo])
txtSecDepRndTo holds the $25 incremental value.
Incidentally, if the payment is $324.49 my code rounds the Security Deposit to $325.00 as it should.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
What the easiest way to turn text to an integer - ir have vaiable defined as long and an inputbox - want to keep asking for an input until I get an integer.
Have IsNumeric - can this be applied to int.
Or could I use localised error handling?
Thanks
There's a lot of info that I need to keep track of by just the year. If I enter it as a normal date, I would need to extract the year every time I need to query and then do what ever. Would it be easier just to extract it once, convert to an integer and use it like that through out the system when I need to query by year?
Thanks,
scratch
I have a field, integer, that needs to be exactly 6 characters long, no more, no less. How would I set this?:p
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a field within a table entitled "Name Display" This displays names in the format:
Surname,forename
I have used the following:
Full Name: Right([Name_Display],Len([Name_Display])-InStr([Name_Display]," ")) & " " & Left([Name_Display],InStr([Name_Display]," ")-1)
To rearrange so format is displayed as forename,surname
However my output with some fields appears as:
SARAH WAILES, with spaces inbetween.
Can anyone suggest a way of removing these spaces?

In a query I have placed functions that work fine. Now I needed to round a currency number to the nearest $10. ex. 224.49 would be 220.00. I used round(xxxxxxx,-2). this gives me an error. positive 2 works fine. What's the deal? thanks for anyone who can help me. :)

Thanks!

This works
SELECT [Attendance for Avg].CRN, Avg([Attendance for Avg].[CountOfStudent Attended])

I track reports in a database. I have a date field [Approval_Date] in the database table. I want to review the reports after they have been approved for 6 months to see if the actions fixed the problem, so I created a query based on the table and used the code "6-Month Review Date: [Approval_Date]+180". This works great except that our meetings are always on Wednesday. So, is there a way to modify my code so that it calculates the 6-Month Review Date as 180 days after the Approval_Date, but then rounds up to the next Wednesday?
I really appreciate the help.
Thanks,
Jim
I have values for example like, 0.03, 1.14, 1.28 I'd like to round them to the nearest tenth. So resulting values will be as follows:
0.03 = 0.00
1.14 = 1.10
1.28 = 1.30
How do i achieve this? What's the formula?
Hi
I've happily been working with my new switchboard only to find it tells me I am limited to 8 entries. How does one get round this - create switchboards which link to switchboards, different pages of switchboard...I've got a bit lost and would much aprreciate any advice.
Thanks
Yes i have a round fuction on one of my calulations as it was displaying 32.222229 instead of 32.3
so i did this.
im varSumXCPIC
varSumXCPIC=Round(RS("SumXCPIC"),2)
if (varSumXCPIC = "" or isnull(varSumXCPIC)) then
varSumXCPIC = "0.0"
end if
But now when i veiw the page with the value = 0.0 it give me Invalid use of Null: 'Round'
any help on how to get ride of that erro would be great. thanks
I have is rounding down dates in Access. I seem to be having trouble with the equation I built below:
Months Remaining: IIf(Date()<[Anniversary],Round(DateDiff("m",Date(),[Anniversary],Round(DateDiff("m",Date(),[Anniversary]+12)))))
My goal with this formula is to produce a number of months remaining (rounding down) by subtracting today's date from the anniversary date. The Round function I put in there seems to not work as the result is the same when I remove it.
Another thing I am also trying to accomplish is having the date pushed forward if todays date is greater than the anniversary date. In this instance, I tried adding 12 months to get it back on track. So say the anniversary date is july 4th 2015 and todays date is aug 4th 2015, well thats gonna show negative 1 but if I add 12 it should bring it to 11 months remaining -which would make sense because the anniversary month and day is fixed but the years just get pushed.
I have an autonumber field set up as long integer. The field just reached the value of 32670 and I get the overflow message. I thought a long integer
could be much bigger than that before running into that problem.
I got around it by re-creating the field and starting from 1, but would rather
know why it's doing it so I don't have users without their system.
Thanks in advance for any help.
I have a form that asks what month you completed a file (04, is april ect.). From this form a report is opened, in my report, I have it read this number and I want to display the month for the number thats entered (if they enter 04 I want april displayed on the report). There is already a ton of data that has the MonthCompleted as 04, so changing that is out of the question.
Thanks, JOe K.
Hi Guys,
First off, a big thanks to everyone on the site. I have learnt a lot since first discovering this site a few weeks back.
Problem:
Having understood that it is better to create SQL lookups to queries of tables rather than to the tables directly, I am having trouble understanding what value I should store in my main table, a text value or the ID (number) (of the text value.)
I have an asset table with a field Equipment Type. This field looks at a query of the EquipmentType Table.
Would it better to store the text value "Printer" in the main asset table (in which case I can query the table directly but the field will use up more space (i.e. 25 char)?)
or
Store the Equipment_Type_ID "1" relating to the Printer (will use up less space, but mean any queries querying the actual name would have to include the EquipmentType table).
Any advise would be much appreciated.
:confused: My thought was that I should go with the ID as otherwise I will be storing duplicate data. If this is the case, when would a text value be more suitable.
