Queries :: SUM Of Fieldname Holler When Fieldname Area Has The Same Value
Jun 26, 2015I have got a query which gives me the following output;
Nr ----------- area ------- area 2 ---------- holler
14-1096-------1------------1-----------------5.9
14-1097-------2------------2-----------------7.8
14-1100-------1------------1-----------------13.4
14-1101-------2------------2-----------------7.8
What i would like to do is to calculate the sum of holler when they are in the same area.So the sum of nr 14-1096 + 14-1100 and 14-1097 + 14-1101. Ive tried to do the following;I tried to do the following just to check it would even work;
Code:
test: (SELECT Sum([holler]) FROM querytoetsn2hr_gemiddelde_filter WHERE ((querytoetsn2hr_gemiddelde_filter.area)=("1")))
Which worked perfectly, it gave me 19.3..
Code:
test: (SELECT Sum([holler]) FROM querytoetsn2hr_gemiddelde_filter WHERE ((querytoetsn2hr_gemiddelde_filter.area)=(querytoetsn2hr_gemiddelde_filter.area2)))
That gave me the sum of all 4 the Nrs. Which makes sense, because you basically say that as long as area and area are the same calculate the sum of holler.if there is a way to say "sum of holler when area has the same value".

Combobox = FieldName
Dec 13, 2007I am trying to create a query that can be customised by a combobox.
I have a combobox that lists the fieldnames from table (rather than records)
I want to be able to run a query that updates the field selected from combobox with the vaule from another txtBox
What I want to be able to write in SQL is;
UPDATE Products
SET [Forms]![Master_Form]![Combobox] = [Forms]![Master_Form]![Qty]
WHERE (((Products.ProductName)=[Forms]![Master_Form]![ProductName]));
But of course this does not work.
Any help would be appreciated in SQL or VBA?
Forms :: Using Variable As Fieldname?
Aug 8, 2013I have a form with 48 unbound text fields name txt1 to txt48.
These are to represent 24 hrs in half hours, to visually represent the hours capacity of my workshop. Now if I choose a date, which is say Monday, I check my settings, and see that the workshop has a capacity of 15 hrs on a monday. Now I would like to in a loop set the backcolour of the remaining fields to red.
Something like for I = 15 (workshop capacity) to 48
me."txt" & I.backcolour=1111

Report, Subreport, Query, Fieldname
Mar 5, 2006I have a report named rpt100 with two subreports srpt100a and srpt100b. The subreports are based on query qry100a and qry100b. Both queries are based on tbl100. I removed a field named 'Comment' from tbl100, as it wasn't useful; Also removed the fieldname from both qry100a and qry100b. When opening rpt100 a parameter dialog opens asking for data on the deleted fieldname 'Comment'. The field 'Comment' was never used in the report or subreports.
Inspection of the subreport fieldlist shows field 'Comment' still present.
How, other than remaking the rpt100 and both srpt100a and srpt100b, do I remove the field 'Comment'?

Build A Dimensional Fieldname In A Query
Feb 20, 2008As example, I have a table with an Item number, introduction year and a number of historical and future Sales periods set per year, these sales columns are listed Y1990, Y1991, Y1992....... Y2015.
Based on each items introduction year, I want to list the first 5 years of sales.
I wanted to create a dimensional fieldname eg: FirstYear: "Y"&[introduction year] to get the value of that respective year. (I currently just get a text saying "Y1995", and not the content )
Any help is appreciated!:)
(Note: I can't transpose the data in the tables for other reason)

General :: How To Change FieldName Globally
Oct 16, 2012I have a database where I would like to change a fieldname to something different.
I know I can use edit replace in the code and that works ok, but is there a way to change the fieldname in the code, the Table, the queries, and sql all in 1 foul swoop or do I have to do them all seperately by hand.
Data Is In Me![fieldname] But Doesn't Get Stored In Table
Apr 22, 2006Hello all :)
I've read some really funny stuff while searching for an answer to this. You're a bunch of really witty types :)
So I'm sure someone can help me - why would this entered data not make it into the table?
I have a form that has a subform. After the subform I have a button to continue. If this is clicked I change the visible property for another field to true. This field appears to work fine, but the data doesn't make it to the underlying table, in fact it sometimes seems to be included in the next record.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Modifying Query Fieldname & Criteria Thru Code
Nov 30, 2004Hi,
Self learning trying to modify a query fieldname and criteria thru code.
Have a small form with a button making a copy of a query/s (eventually making about 50 copies).
Once these have been made, would like to open the query up, which I can do, then modify both
the fieldname and the field criteria to suit my needs from parameters set in the form.
How do I do this if it can be done ?
Thanks in advance

SetFocus
Apr 11, 2005How can I set the focus to the first control in a form, without referencing the control name?
Ex. Normally I do:
Me.ControlName.SetFcous
Now I have a code which adds a new record, which is used on several forms, therefore the control name is not always the same, so I would like the focus to move to the first field on the tab order. Any ideas please?
Can I Setfocus To Tab In VB?
Aug 25, 2004I am just learning VB, much less Access, even more so how to just understand all the code. My conundrum: In my form, I have 4 sets of tabs (not pages - each tab contains +/- 8 pages). Each tab is controlled visibly by 1 of 4 text boxes within the form, not positioned within the tabs. When each respective control is clicked, it is bolded (i.e. fontbold = true) and its repective tab set becomes visible (i.e. true), "hiding" the other 3 tab sets (i.e. visible = false). This is dependent on changing setfocus to the control (according to my error messages which say I cannot move the setfocus to the control or I can't hide a control that has the focus). After I try to setfocus to Tab2 and click the control for Tab2, it says the same thing, that I can't hide a control that has the focus. I've tried setting focus to the tabs, to the labels that control the tabs, to labels within the tabs, and to text within the tabs - all to no avail. If anyone has a suggestion, I would be most appreciative. Cheers.

Setfocus Going To A New Record In Subform
Feb 23, 2006Hi,
For some reason when I set the focus to a text box in the subform it clears the textboxes there.
First I set the values of 2 of the textboxes in the subform programatically. Then I tab to the last control in the main form. This is the code I have in the lost focus event of that control:
Forms!frmDrawingsRegister!frmDrawingRevisions.SetF ocus
Forms!frmDrawingsRegister!frmDrawingRevisions!txtL atestIssueDate.SetFocus
frmDrawingsRegister = main form
frmDrawingRevisions = subform
I have set the Cycle property of the subform to Current Record.
Why would this be happening?
Setfocus In Subform Not Working
May 5, 2005I have a main form with a subform which in-turn also has a subform (in datasheet mode). When the user clicks a button on the main form I want to disable all of the controls on the subforms. This works fine until the user clicks the button while the focus is on one of the text fields in one of the subforms. It rightly complains that the control can't be disbled while it is in focus. To circumvent this problem I've tried setting the focus to another field before disabling the control. However this doesn't seem to work. It seems to ignore the setfocus and still flags the original error. Is it not possible to set the focus of a subform from the main form?
Example:
[subfrm1].Form![Field2].SetFocus
[subfrm1].Form![Field1].Enabled = False
This fails if the focus was in Field1 at the time of executing the code.
Any ideas?
SetFocus On Continuous Form
Nov 28, 2005Hello,
I have a continuous form. On that form, I have a link (label) that a user can click to bring up a new form containing more info on the current record. The problem is that when the form opens, the first record is selected. If the user scrolls down to another record, and clicks the link, the form opens with info on the first record.
It seems that I need to set the record to the record that the link was clicked from, but I'm not sure how. Any help?
Thanks,

Add And View SetFocus Question
Nov 10, 2006Sorry if this has come up before, I have been chasing dozens of threads that are so close, I've still not got it!:o
I have a form that is used in edit mode and add mode. When used in edit mode it has a combo box in the header that does the usual bookmark search in the after update event, and on open focus is set to this field in the open form event.
When in add mode i don't want this set focus to happen so I'm not sure what the test statement should be.:confused:
Would appreciate a pointer or two.
