Summing Fields In A Form
May 1, 2007
I have run into this problem with several databases I have created. I have my tables all set to store my information. I create the form to enter the information. I try to create the field to calculate a total and every time I enter the amount in the form, I get '?name' or '#name'.
With this particular database, I am looking to track expenses. Expense categories on the left, dates across the top, amounts in the middle, totals across the bottom for dates and down the right for categories.
If there was a way to attach a document, I would send the expense report. If you want to look at it, let me know and I will send it. It's a small xls file.
Thanks.

Hello, I am a newbie access user, so this might be a stupid question, but here it is:
I have a lot of yes/no fields labeled "10/1", "10/3", "10/5", ... (dates)
They are to record attendance on particular days.
I want to make a query that gives me the sum of a student's attendance and I have no idea to go about that. Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks!!

Hi,
Not sure if this is possible (sounds simple hopefully) but I was wondering if there was a way to sum certain fields in a record on a continuous form.
E.g. Field1 and Field2 in record 1.
Is it something simple like summing columns, i.e. Sum(Field1)?
Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi,
I am trying to figure out the best way to design a table. The table is going to contain data concerning checks that have been given to a church. Each check could be broken down into 3 different categories; Tithes, Offering, Other. In other words one check for $100 dollars might be Tithes $40.00, Offering $30.00, Other $30.00. I need to be able to enter these three amounts into the record and then have them totaled in another field.
Is it best to do this all in one record or should I have two tables? If I have two tables how do I get one form to enter the break down into one table and the total in another table. Fyi, if I do this in one record I don't want them to have to enter in the total. I want the total that is entered to be calculated by the three previous fields.
Thanks for any help you can be on this.

Is there a way to use a query to sum totals of several fields per record? In the db I have designed, I have 5 seperate fields for estimates from different departments. There is also a field for Total estimates. What I would like to do is have the Total Estimates field autocalculate the total sum of the other 5 estimate fields. Is this possible to do through a query? If so how? If not - is it possible at all?
Thanks!

I have 2 fields, Accounts, Accounts CMO. I need those two fields to show in the same table in a new field called Total Accounts. I am summing them, but getting irregular results, some are right, and some are 4 times more than they should be? How would you go about doing this, maybe I am missing something.

Hi all, sorry to bother you all, especially if this has already been answered, but I can't seem to find the solution to it. Assuming that what I've been doing has been correct that is.
I have three (3) tables with the following fields (where PK is primary key);
[tbl Ingred]: IngredID (PK), ProdID_fk, CompCode, IngredName, Weight, Symbol, RP01, RP02, RP03, RP04, RP05, RP06, RP07, RP08, RP09, RP10
[tbl Prod]: ProdID (PK), ProdName, FP, BP, SBU, ProdNotes
[tbl RPCalc]: RPs, RPs_long (PK), Sym, Limit, Sym_1, RP_1, Comp_1, Add, RP_01, RPNotes
[tbl Prod] has a one-to-many relationship with [tbl Ingred]; that is, for one ProdID, there can be many IngredIDs. The tables are designed so that the final user-displayed form is 'user-friendly'.
I've made a qry called [qry Qcalc] used to calculate the the Quotation (Q) of each of the 10 RPs (RP01 - RP10). Which simply for the first one is; QRP01: [Weight]/[tbl RPCalc_1].Limit, where the [tbl Ingred].[RP01] is linked to a corresponding [tbl RPCalc], by the [RPs] field. As for one [RPs] there may be multiple [RPs_long]. The way it is set up is so that the [RPs] and [RPs_long] are mapped correctly, to be used for calculations.
However, I am now stuck with a problem. I need to sum up these QRP values ([QRP01] - [QRP10]), based on (at least?) two conditions. The user can enter in their RPs; e.g. R10, R20, R21 in any of the [RP01] to [RP10]'s, and in any order.
What I need is to be able to obtain a sum of the Q values for each [RPs_long] (e.g. R10, R20, R21), rather than being the sum of the fields [RP01] to [RP10]. Also, each [RPs_long] may or may not be able to be summed up, depending on another field [Add] which has a "Yes" or "No". "Yes" is for it being able to be summed up, and "No" for it not being additive.
So the end result would be; for each [ProdID], there will be multiple [IngredID] where each will have up to ten (10) "RPs" (that being the [RP01] to [RP10] fields). These inputted "RPs" are then related to [tbl RPCalc] to be able to obtain the Q-values. If the Q-Value is not greater or equal to 1 (>= 1), then the sum of the Q-values for each [RPs_long], provided that the [Add] field is "Yes", will then be able to determine what are the final output RPs to be used, i.e. for the sum of the Q-values are greater or equal to 1 (>= 1), that [RPs_long] will be used.
I've been stuck on this for quite some time, and I know that if I change the whole table structure (like having a field for each RPs in the [tbl Ingred]), I might be able to make it much easier for myself. However, by doing so, it will not be able to offer as much flexibility in the calculations, and also, may not make it as 'user-friendly'. Another thought was maybe to create another table with just the [CompCodeID] (based on [tbl Ingred].[CompCode]), [Weight], [RP], but I'm not too sure how this will work either, but I might give it a shot if this current method doesn't work.
I hope that this made sense, as it is all quite complex (and confusing) to me. Any help on this matter will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I have a number of fields that hold values (scores - either 0,1 or 2) that need to be summed but in some cases the value is 99 (which is recognised by our stats program as a N/A type of anwer- This occurs when a question is optional and the user hasnt answered it. I did not want to value to be null (since its not like the user didnt answer it because they missed out on it by accident but rather they could not) and it couldnt be 0 either since 0 actually means something different in the context of the questionnaire.Lets say I have Q1 which has a value of 0, Q2 has a value of 1, Q3 has a value of 99 and Q4 has a value of 2I want to get the total of Q1+Q2+Q3+Q4 for a particular entry but if the value of any or all of the questions are 99 I want access to ignore it and just sum the rest of the values i.e. the sum should read 0+1+2+(99)=3 not 102I want to be able to include this sum function in the expression builder if possible since I am using it for a report. Can someone please help?

Would like to create a sum of a field in a sub form. I am using =sum([name of field]) in the footer of the sub form but it only gives me the answer of the first entry in the form. I also created an unbound box in the detail portion =[table1 subform].[form]![name of field]. What am I doing wrong?

In the footer of my report I have a field that sums the Transaction Amounts - =Sum([Transaction Amount])
I would also like to break the totals down further by Transaction Type Codes.
Something like =Sum([Transaction Amount]) where Transaction Type Code = AL-Exp-Paid

I am involved in centrally managing a project , a part of which involves employees of certain companies being given a weekly subsidy for study on academic courses. I have successfully set up a table for all the learners and a related table for companies.
Each learner will receive a fixed weekly rate subsidy in the first year, and a lower fixed weekly rate subsidy in the second year. Somebody (not me) will need to check their paychecks to ensure that employees have been paid and all is above board. The learners/employees can start on the programme at any time. I need a way to track this (total claimed amounts, where they're up to etc).
My theoretical solution, is to have a field for each week a learner is on the programme (52 first year, 52 second), and instead of entering a currency amount in the field, the check-person can enter the date they saw the evidence and are happy with it. I thought then if I create a query that searches any dates that fall within the current claim period (eg >01/01/2015, <=Date()), and multiplies field count that fall within those parameters by first/second year subsidy rate if they're in that table. I think my logic is sound, I am just not sure how to write the query/expression, or if it's possible, or if there is a much simpler way to do it.

I have a sales form. The sales form has many Call, Meetings and Emails linked to each sales record. I want to total all the number of calls, meeting and email records related to the sales record to give a total- Touches.I've created 3 queries;
1 - Counts Calls
2 - Counts Emails
3 - Counts Meetings
These all work fine however when I combine them to attempt to count the results it doesn't produce the correct results.I have a second query as well (no pun intended).
I am trying to sum together a column that has values in Time. The results displays as a decimal. How can I have the result display as a Time i.e. 1:20 (1 hour 20 minutes).

In my tables i have used calculated fields. one of the fields is to "total expenses." In a report, i need to show the sum of all the "total expenses", the filed populates in the report but the cents are missing. for example if the amount is 6080.40 it shows as 6080. how can i get around this? I have tried changing the decimal point value to 2 at which point the value turns to 6080.00 when it should be 6080.40 (i am a beginner at this i am assuming the answer will probably involve c++ or visual basic's, two concepts i am not familiar with.)

Hi All,
I have to admit that I have been staring at this this problem for some time now and can't seem to solve it. Hopefully someone from this form will be able to help...
The attached jpeg of my continuos form has the "traditional" access #Name? error in it. The text box's contain the formula to sum each column they are under i.e: =sum([txtamount]) , =sum([txtFinalForecastCost]),
=sum([txtCostToGo]). They are located on the form footer section. If I delete the last text box the other two text box's sum ok, but all three generate the #Name? error. Any ideas on how to get around this so all three sum?
This continuos form is a sub form of the main form and the last column is a calculation of: Forecast - amount = CostToGo
Access 97
Thank you.

Hey there, Im currently making a form so users can enter project information. For this particular project, the user must choose from a variety of options, and each option has a number value assigned to it for a rating. Now at the end of this form, I want a sum of the ratings, and then entered into the table. I am using a text box for the sum of ratings, and can get the sum of ratings to work on the form, but this data is entered as a 0 in the table. If anyone could help me find a way to put the actual sum in the table, that would be excellent.. thx a lot.
If it would be any help, here are the names of text boxes that I'm adding:
Health and Safety Rating, Maintenance Rating, Equipment Rating, School Size Rating, Student Enrollment Rating, SD Priority Rating, Project Requested Previously Rating
Those ratings must be added into "Total Rating"
Thankyou!

Would someone be kind enough to look at the following two attached mini databases. I have this recurring problem when I set things up that I cannot get some figures to appear in the table - only on the form.
In Example 1 I am trying to get the Total Score to show up.
In Example 2 I am trying to get the corresponding score to the description to show up.
I think it is something to do with me referencing the field not the look-up table but I really don't know any more.
Thanks

Im working in Access 2007.
So i have query based on 1 table that populates a Form. The primary key for that table is Entity ID. Therefore once the query has been run I have multiple records that i can scroll through in my form distiguished by their Entity ID.
I have a second table that has a Entity ID column, AFE Available column, and many others. The primary key for this table is called Match ID. This table contains records that have the same Entity ID.
My goal is to display on the form the Sum of the "AFE Availible" for each Entity ID. so as you scroll through the records the Entity ID is changing and you are able to see a the Specific "AFE Availible" Sum related to the current Record showing on the form.
I couldn't figure out a way to have a query based off both tables where the records are only uniquely defined by the Entity ID in Budget Info. What was happening is the query was displaying all the records that had the same Entity ID because of the AFE Spent table. That way when you scroll through the records the form shoes records with the same entity id.
Maybe im doing it all wrong and you dont need the tables attached to the same query. That would make it easier i think. So you would have two queries populating different text boxes on a form. Is that even possible?

I'm adding to a DB which has been working well for a while.
I have a continuous form which has a query behind it. The query takes two values: (For example)
[LineCost] and [LineQTY]
Inside the query, we use the expression TLC: [LineCost] * [LineQTY]
I need to sum this so a Sale with several lines gives me the total sell and cost value.
If you look at the sfrmEditQuote - you'll see the exact same method - working. sfrmEditSale is direct copy of this form, with some changes here and there. But can I get past the dreaded #error? Nope.
I've tried renaming the fields and text boxes, checking the query, but I keep getting #error on the sfrmEditSale form footer.
I have attached the DBs in old and new format.

I created a form in Access that retrieves data from a table. Inside the form, I am able to access/populate data fields with data from the table. I also have data fields, inside the form, that requires key-in data. I have some how lost the ability send all data field information to a second table and clear existing data fields for new entry.
Questions: What settings, code or buttons can I use to send/store data field information to a new table? What settings, code or buttons can I use to automatically clear all data fields from my form once data has been sent to the new table?

I have a totalquery that runs fine and give me the sum for both fields I'm looking for but I can't get the outputs to fill the fields on the form. I have tried the Dcount query in the control source but that just returns an error and locks up access.
Code:
SELECT [Tble-wcDelays].Causedby, Sum([Tble-wcDelays].HoursDelay) AS SumOfHoursDelay
FROM [Tble-wcDelays]
GROUP BY [Tble-wcDelays].Causedby, [Tble-wcDelays].LinkingID
HAVING ((([Tble-wcDelays].LinkingID)=[Forms]![Frm-ePlusCent]![cleanID]));
That is the query.

i'm going to start this by telling what i am working toward in the end as it is where the problem obviously stems from.
i am trying to create a report which will tell me how many times 'hcapp' is in a table. there are three different fields where 'hcapp' can be placed...i can easily create three different queries which return how many times 'hcapp' is mentioned in one field, but i have yet to figure out how to look through all three fields in one query...is it possible? if not, how can i have a report call all three of these queries and then sum the total?

i've a question that hopefully has a simple answer.
i have a query that returns three different numbers (each in its own column)...anyway, how can i make it sum the number of these three numbers...the best case scenario would be if i could have a fourth column appear in the results of the query with the sum...
it would look something like this
num1 num2 num3 sum
1 2 3 6
