I have a simple query and I am trying to total the value for the the quarter. Some of the months don't have a value so I used the NZ function IE April: NZ([Apr], 0). This put a zero value in each field so it could be added together. My Total field will only total the values if there is a entered value in each field. Example
Apr May Jun Q1
1 2 3 6 - GOOD
0 0 4 No Value - Bad
I have a table with the following 4 fields (these are the ones i'm having the issue with but there are others).
ID, Country, City, Date
I enter data into this table via a form
The ID is an auto number. The date is simply enetered.
The Country Field is a lookup (in the table itself) with the following lookup properties
Display Control: Combo Box
Row Source Type: Value List
Row Source: "England";"Spain";"France" etc
Now the problem...
I also want a lookup in the City combobox (on the form) which changes to reflect what was selected in the Country field.
E.G
If in the Country Field Spain is selected then in the City Field I should have the option of selecting Barcelona, Madrid, Valencia etc.
I was told to use the following code in the afterupadate of "parent combobox":
Private Sub ComboCountry_AfterUpdate() Select Case Me.ComboCity Case "Test" Me.ComboCity.RowSource = "A;B;C" End Select End Sub
Ive tried it but as always i get an error when i use the country drop down...
A pop up box with:
Compile error: Method or data member not found
and visual basic opens with the top line of the code "Private Sub Country_AfterUpdate()" highlighted in yellow, and the ".RowSource =" is highlighted in blue.
These are the properties of my form
My Country Combobox is called - "Country" My City Combobox is called - "City"
I have put the above code in the after update of the "Country" combobox as below:
Private Sub Country_AfterUpdate() Select Case Me.City Case "England" Me.City.RowSource = "London;Manchester;Leeds" End Select End Sub
Anyone know where the error in the code is? Obviously i have reduced the code to include only one case.
I have created a simple query to subtract field B from field A and store this value in field C, however now I need the query to lookup the value from field C in the previous record and store it in field D in the current record. I'd appreciate your HELP
I've got a form with fields for projects, type of time (normal time/overtime) and hours.
the fields are cboProjects, cboTimeType and Hrs respectively (simplified for this forum)
I have a tbo in the footer, and I want it to sum all the hours entered where the type time is normal time. So I tried putting in the following expression into the Control Source of the control for tboHrsSum as follows:
=Sum([Hrs]) WHERE [cboTimeType]=1
1 is the ID of Normal Time.
This doesn't work though - can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
I have a project at hand and it's been a predecessor of mine and client has asked me to do some work on it and extend functionality - but I have not really delved into Access before and I have had to worked my way through to this final snag :/
The Main Form has one sub form. This sub form allows the user to add multiple order items i.e. qty, stock, description from records within the system - fairly straight forward.At the last column of each row is the sub total of those particular items i.e.
Qty Unit | Item ID | Total ----------------------- 2 | 1234 | 80.00 ------------------------ 1 | 43526 | 20.00 ------------------------ > | |
So the total is a function of =[Qty Unit] * [Unit Price].Then in the Footer of this SubForm is the Sub Total
=SUM([Qty Unit] * [Unit Price])
All fine and well..... However, the additional functionality kicks in.
Lets add the additional customer_id from the Main Form. Each Item bought is dependent on the customer_id i.e. they get special prices depending on who they are.So a New table is made which has the Item ID and SpecialPriceID (of a table to define as a specialPrice) and the Price linked to this Item and Special Price category. So say that there are two groups of users "wholesale" and "nonwholesale" these would be SP_1 and SP_2 and each client is defined either one of these, and each stock item has a Price for each SP_1 and SP_2. Hopefully I've explained myself there.
Back to the SubForm. So now the Total needs to calculated differently with needed the external customer_id from the Main Form.
Code:
Function CalculateSpecialPrice(ItemID As String, CustomerID As String, Unit As Integer) Dim SPSelect As String SPSelect = "SELECT Price FROM [Items_SpecialPrices] WHERE" SPSelect = SPSelect & " ItemID = '" & ItemID SPSelect = SPSelect & "' AND SpecialPriceID = (SELECT SpecialPriceID FROM Customers WHERE customer_id = " & CustomerID & ") "
[code]....
its the sub total I just keep on getting #Error on. I have even watched (using alerts) that the correct return variable is the same as the individual rows. This is the equation I used for the SubTotal within the footer.
Ok I am right now making a simple Vendor/Product database to create a line sheet for some sales folks. I have 3 tables: Vendors, Products, and an associate entity Vendors_Products to relate the two. I have a form currently that draws the Vendor Name (primary key) from the Vendor table and the Product Name from the associate entity. This allows me to create new vendors and select current product types from a drop down box. The problem is that the drop down box is too long and it is tiresome when 1 vendor has 10 product types.
Can anyone tell me how to resolve this? I thought it would be better to have option buttons and display all available products. Then you could just click all of the option buttons that apply to that Vendor and it would create the relationships...is this possible?
We have a date function that converts a text date format. Can someone help me with time function to do the same thing? We want military time. The field is like this now: txt fields. 160037 213137 224356 235716 235800 12341 21708 22732 Here is the date function we use: Function f2Date(strDateOld As String) Dim strDate As String, strMonth As String, strYear As String strMonth = Mid(strDateOld, 5, 2) strDate = Right(strDateOld, 2) strYear = Left(strDateOld, 4) f2Date = strMonth & "-" & strDate & "-" & strYear f2Date = CDate(f2Date) f2Date = Format(f2Date, "mmmm d yyyy") End Function
I need a little help. In my DB, I have a command button set up (I was tired of typing in dates) for date, but I used the Now function, which also gives me the time.
Now I have over 3000 subrecords of the main ones. I now need to queries transaction for that specific date, but it also retrieves the time.
I tried to go back and change the NOW to DATE in VB, but the code does not run.
How do I change all records that have date and time (using NOW function) and only click that command button to show only the date (mm/dd/yyyy)?
Hi, I have looked at some of the threads here and it is clear that many of you are working on a much higher level than me and with a high degree of familiarity with the programme. I am hoping that someone here is able to give me some advice as I don't find the MS help files digestible. The task I have is to join 2 databases and produce a table from which I can run a mailmerge. I have managed to join the 2 databases and I used a customer ID as a common link. (my apologies if the terminology is incorrect) I now have all the data I require in one table. THE PROBLEMs I have multiple entries for some of my customers and would like to reduce this to single entries (which is understandable). Please tell me how to do this if you can, and keep it as simple as you can please.
I'm making a report detailing competitors final finishing positions in a competition.
The columns are (1) Place, (2) Name and (3) Points
I have the data for their names and the points they have scored, but how do I make the table enter the record number (starting at 1) in the first field???
Not sure what the issue is here but i am trying to append a Job number from a main database into two connected databases. The number is a sequential number i have created and the primary key. It is an autonumber field(obviously). The format is J0000 and the numbers start from J0001
I am using two different append queries to append them into the external databases tables. However (and here i think lies the problem) the fields i am inserting them into are text fields with the same format J0000. When i view the numbers in these tables, they are displayed as J1 or J9. The 0's are missing. Any ideas.
Hey guys, I'm just wondering how I could limit a field to using from 2 - 20 letters. If I placed the letter "a", I'd get an error saying how at least 2 letters must be there, and a maximum of 20. How would I do this?
Lastly, how can I make it so when I enter data into a form, I can click a button which adds it all into the table? When I do it normally, it's automatically transferred into the table as I type it into the form.
This is incredibly simple I know, but I am a n00b at Access. ^_^
OK, I have a strange problem... This doesn't seem to work..... It did... then I made some changes.... Can someone clue me in on what I am doing wrong? A query, simply summing some values in fields... no biggy...... BUT... The field TotalHours: ([SundayHours]+[MondayHours]+[TuesdayHours]+[WednesdayHours]+[ThursdayHours]+[FridayHours]+[SaturdayHours])
So why isn't this working? Can I use a simple VBA statement to sum these fields?
I am trying to create an IN query (ACCESS) which will firstly show the customers table (specific details) then the orders details should be in the IN query, I formulated this but it won't work:
SELECT s.CustomerID, Address, City, PostalCode FROM Customers s WHERE s.OrderID IN (SELECT s.OrderID FROM Orders p WHERE s.OrderDate = '1996') AND s.OrderID IN (SELECT s.OrderID FROM Orders p WHERE s.OrderDate = '1997');
Here is the one I did to show the customers and orders who made orders in 1996 and 97:
SELECT Customers.CustomerID AS Customers_CustomerID, Orders.CustomerID AS Orders_CustomerID, Customers.Address, Customers.City, Customers.PostalCode, Orders.OrderID, Orders.OrderDate FROM Customers INNER JOIN Orders ON Customers.CustomerID = Orders.CustomerID WHERE (((Orders.OrderDate) Between #1/1/1996# And #12/31/1997#));
it is probably something simple I am missing here! Sorry to keep asking :(
but I can't seem to figure it out. All I get is Null values when I run the query.
I have a form with a start text box and a end text box. I use the form name sucessfully in the criteria row so I know there is no problem with the form name. I also know there is no problem with the qry name. Does anyone see anything I am doing wrong?!?!
The query I am working in is labeled [qry_old_summary_date_range]. Just wanted to clarify that is not a problem.
I have a table with dates of deadlines and another with dates of submissions. For each deadline I want to know who submitted first. I figured that all I had to do was compute the difference between the dates and the select the minimum. However, Access rejects the Min() function in the WHERE clause. How do I avoid this?
I have a table (imported from excel) that is a pricing grid for blinds. The header row at the top is widths(mm) and the header row down the left is heights(mm). The data is the price. The import process makes the widths the column names.
height 600 800 1200 ... 300 $60 $80 $100 600 $80 $100 $120 900 $120 $140 $160 . . all I want to do is to take that table and make it flattened, like this:
I can't think how to do this in a query - I could take the flat version and create a crosstab to go the other way. Any clues - I don't want to change too much about the way the imported excel file looks becasue I have no control over that (I already discard miscellaneous heading and junk before I import it)
My Brain has completely lost all of it's gray matter.
I have two tables tbl_Employers and tbl_Services that are linked via a one to many relationship. Each Employer can have Many Services. The field i am useing in the relationship is EmployerID
If I build a simple select query using these tables I will see all of the employers that have a related record in the services table. Any employer could be listed there many times as per the relationship.
What i want is a simple count of how many employers actually have recieved a service.
Why is this so difficult for me to get my head around.
this is my query in design viewhttp://img99.imageshack.us/img99/3095/querytc3.th.gif (http://img99.imageshack.us/my.php?image=querytc3.gif)i use this query when entering datai want to know how i can set it up it display all or any one/two/none of the criteria i put into the question text boxes, number surname and state, or even just number, or just state.anyone?
this might be a crude roundabout way of doing things but it works as is, and i'm trying to streamline a little.
i have a database that contains all of my customer's details. once a month remove those whom no longer want my mailout, and export the remainder into excel so that my printer can print and stuff envelopes.
i record customers that no longer wish to recieve my mailout, by putting something(anything) in a column that says rts.
what i'm trying to work out is, how in a simple query i can prevent any record that has any value in the rts column from displaying the name/address etc.
if there's a code to say
if anything in rts exists then hide name address state postcode
I am working on a simnple form that has just a few simple calculations in it. One being wieght difference and the other being percentage weight difference.
I get Access to calculate the wieght difference easily, but Ican't then get it to calculate a percentage weight difference (in another cell).
This is what I have down for code.
If Weigh1 <> 0 Then WeightDiff = Weigh1 - Weigh2 End If If WeightDiff <> 0 Then PerWeightLoss = WeightDiff / Weigh1 End If
:confused: I have a logon form which works well and authenticates users via a table. The problem is when the form is loaded the user has to click into the text box to type their name. I want a cursor to be flashing in the text box when the form opens so the user can type their name straight away without having to touch the mouse. I have ensured that the tab index for the text box is first however this has not resolved. Is it something to do with focus? If so how to I ensure that the text box has focus on launching the logon form??
I have a very basic form (frmHalfTab) based on a basic table (tblHalfTab2). The table is uploaded periodically from excel, overwriting the original table. I'm trying to determine the best way to accomplish the following:
I need a query, Dlookup, SQL statement, or something, that will look at the contents of one field (MBRDrug) and populate the following field (MBRDrugAlt) based on what's in the first field. For example, if MBRDrug field has "Pravachol 10MG" in it, I need it to fill in MBRDrugAlt with "Pravachol 20MG". I am hoping to set this up in the form's OnOpen event to occur automatically with no direct user input, as this is what my boss is asking for. Any suggestions on how to proceed? Also, in my failed attempts, I have the original drug and it's suggested alternate in it's own table, tblHalfTab1, if that helps with any suggested solutions. Help?
