Queries :: Calculated Field Error
Nov 4, 2014I have a several fields, calculated, that break apart a string of text at every open and closed parentheses. They work like they are supposed to with no errors. However, I want to use the result of this particular field in a combo box to populate another combo box with the other half of the string that will be split. The problem, I think, is that since the field is calculated, it will not allow me to select it in the combo box, saying that the field can't be edited.
So, I added the same field names to the table that the query was built on, however when I run the query, it says that there is a syntax error with a comma in the code. If I take out the table in the query, (not using the SQL side, just the query builder), it works again with no problem.The text I am breaking apart looks like this: 1.234(a)(1)(A)(2)(b)(i)(-a-)
I need this field to break the text up at the (1) mark, so the code I am using looks like this:
Code:
PrinSubChap1: IIf([Sub2] Is Null,[PrincipleNumber],Left([PrincipleNumber],InStr(InStr(1,[PrincipleNumber],"(")+3,[PrincipleNumber],")")-0))
The other fields I have do the exact same thing, written the same way, with adjustments made to the position (+3,0).I have stared at this for awhile and can't figure out why it is giving me an error and research on the web doesn't appear to cover my question.
This is the error message: Syntax error (comma) in query expression '[mytable].[IIf([Sub2] Is Null,[PrincipleNumber],Left([PrincipleNumber],InStr(InStr(1,[PrincipleNumber],"(")+3,[PrincipleNumber],")")-0))]

Receiving Error When Creating Calculated Field
Feb 4, 2013I'm attempting to create a calculated field in a query called 'Test'. It's purpose is to determine if a certain field has a 'c' for closed and then returns the appropriate 3 months in a concatenated string. This previously worked when it was shorter. Now that I extended it for 2011 fields i'm getting an error that it is too long. I'm pasting the below code into the 'field' line of my query.
Code:
Test: IIf([DEC12_Status]="c",[OCT12_A] & " " & [NOV12_A] & " " & [DEC12_A]

Tables :: Add A Calculated Field
Jul 15, 2015I’m trying to create a function (by combining IFF with Dlookup) that will automatically complete the name off the Team Leader when the Agent Name is equal with the field from my table.So, I have a table called BAZA imported from Excel with the fields: Team Leader|Agent Name| Customer Number|Date of interaction|Reason of interaction|, and another table called Agents imported from Excel with the fields :Agent Name |Agent User . The User filed is the same with Agent Name from BAZA, but I also have in Agents table some Agents that are not in BAZA, that never had interactions with customers.I what to add another calculated field in Agents Table that contains the Team Leader of agent. Till now I tried this:
-create a query called Sort3 based on BAZA where i have Team Leader|Agent Name with no duplicates
-the function i tried is =IIf( “[Agent User] =”&[Sort3]![Agent Name], Dlookup(“Team Leader”, “Sort3″,”Agent Name=”&[Agent User], “Different Team Leader”) ….. it seems to have some errors
-the data type is text.I use 2010 version of Office.
Tables :: Auto-populate Table Field From Calculated Field In Another Table?
Jan 15, 2015I am creating a database to keep up with the expenses for my art business. I have a table for Vendors with a field (Mileage) for one-way mileage that I enter manually (EX: 11.8 miles). Then I have a calculated field that basically just multiplies the Mileage field times two to get total mileage to and from my house to vendor location. (Total Miles) {The reason I want to do this this way right now is because I didn't keep up with my mileage this year and I am having to look up the distance from my home to each location)
Then I have a "supplies" table where I show the date, the vendor, the item, cost, etc, and I want to add a Total Mileage field based on the calculated Total Miles field in the Vendors table that will automatically populate based on the vendor of each transaction. I just can't remember how to make this work and I know just enough SQL to be dangerous.
Tables :: Get Rid Of Calculated Field In A Table?
Sep 13, 2013I've learned the hard way about using calculated fields in a table. I used on while building in Access 2010 for users that will be using Access 2007. Once my testers pointed out the error message, I did some research and realized my calculated field was the problem.
So, I created a query to replicate the calculation, deleted the offending field from the original table and redirected everything to point at the new query vice the original table.
However, my testers are still receiving the error about needing version 14 to access that table. There isn't a calculated field there any longer, but they still can't access that table. Did that calculated field put some sort of taint on my database that can't be removed? I'm not sure what to do. Do I need to start over, so that a calculated field was never part of the database to begin with? If so, how much of my existing one can I reuse?
Tables :: Using NZ In A Table Calculated Field
Jul 22, 2013Access 2013
I am trying to add some numbers together for a number of fields, of which at least one field will either be 0 or empty. I am trying to use the following formula in a calculated field in a table:
IIf(IsNull([Price Increase %]),[Total],([Total]*[Price Increase %])+Nz([LumpSumAnnualIncrease]))
Access returns an error statement: The expression XXX cannot be used in a calculated column.
Is there a different formula I should be using, or a work around, other than using the formula in a query.
Tables :: Adding Icon To Calculated Field?
Aug 17, 2015I'm currently building a database and one of the things that I must make is a "warning", more like a symbol on a continuous form, that is there, if the task is wanted by a costumer.
I have a Yes/No field in database, which decides that. Now I need to figure out how to make it appear on form. I thought about making a calculated field, that would display some warning icon.
Now my question is, is it possible to add an icon to a calculated field and if possible, how?
Tables :: Calculated Field OR Manually Entered Value?
Jul 14, 2014I have a calculated field that is a total based on 5 other fields. These fields are rankings of priority on individual categories, while the calculated field is a total priority ranking for the entire record. (A ticket) The 5 categories are prioritized, and the calculated field runs it through our equation to determine the overall priority of each ticket.
Now, some tickets don't have individual priority numbers in their categories. Therefore, no total priority number is calculated in the calculated field. We would like these tickets to be given a manual total priority, but we can't manually enter numbers into the calculated field to do this.
Is there a way of saying this to the calculated field... "Use the equation to run the individual categories to come up with your total. IF there are no numbers in those categories, reference the field 'Manual Priority' to find your number."
This way, we'd like to keep all of the total priorities in the calculated field. It's just that some of them have to be manually entered because there will be no individual priority categories to calculate the total by.
The current formula for this total priority field is...
(([Size of Financial Risk?]*20)+([Impact on Internal Customers]*15)+([Non-Financial Impact]*20)+([Impact on External Customers]*30)+([Estimated # of Clients Impacted]*15))
I'd like to say, "Do that... or use this manual field if that equation turns out to be nothing."
Tables :: Calculated Field With Two Decimal Points
Apr 29, 2014I have a problem when storing a calculated field with two decimal points. If I set the field to double, fixed, 2 decimal points. For the field it will show the calculations as:
21.364 as 21.36
21.563 as 21.56
21.272 as 21.27
Which is how I want it to be, however when I run a summary of the field rather than showing 64.19 it calculates as 64.20, I know that this is the correct figure but is there any way I can get it to show me the 64.19?

View 1 Replies View RelatedTables :: Averaging Calculated Fields While One Field Is Blank
Feb 5, 2015Access 2010 database.
I am trying to get an average from several numbered fields, which some may occasionally be blank.
=Nz([JanUS],0)+Nz([FebUs],0)+Nz([MarUS],0)
I get an error message that says "The expression =Nz([JanUS],0)+Nz([FebUs],0)+Nz([MarUS],0) cannot be used in a calculated column. This is a hypothetical expression being used.
The real expression is ...
([GC A1 - 2]+[GC B1 - 2]+[GC C1 - 2]+[GC D1 - 2]+[GC E1 - 2]+[GC A2 - 2]+[GC B2 - 2]+[GC C2 - 2]+[GC D2 - 2]+[GC E2 - 2])/10
This expression works great until a field is left blank, and then the average box is left blank.
The fields I am trying to add are Long Integer. Would that affect it?

View 3 Replies View RelatedTables :: Accounting For Missing Values In A Calculated Field
Mar 24, 2014I have a table that stores information for multiple behavioral surveys (numerical values). My goal is to add the proper fields that compose total scores value for each respective survey (do a summation of scores). Now, under design view for my table, I see that I can add a calculated field. When I create this calculated field, I can use the Expression Builder to do a sum of the proper fields (the fields that compose a total score for a survey). The only problem that I'm encountering is that if a field that is part of a survey is missing information, the summation disregards the rest of the values for that survey.
How can I account for these missing values so that, if 1 out of my 9 fields have information, I will still get a summation score for the 9 fields? I want to be able to do this without having to change the value of the missing field to 0.
In SPSS I can easily do this by computing a variable and using a code like this:
SUM.2(field1, field2, field3, etc.)
Tables :: Access 2010 - Calculated Field Cannot Be Created

I was therefore looking to create a new calculated field for customer count which report either "1" or"-1" depending on if the price is positive or negative. The idea being a count of this would give the customer count. The expression I am using is:
IIf([Price]>=0, 1, -1)
The problem is it I get an error message saying "The calculated field cannot be created" "verify that expression "IIf([Price]>=0, 1, -1)" includes fields that exist in the current table"

General :: 2 Fields From Separate Tables Needed To Create Calculated Field?
Aug 19, 2013The interface being used is a main form with various tabs and a subform on each of these tabs.
There is one field ('max power density') in my database that is calculated using 'Max Rated Power' and 'Cylinder Capacity' however these are in different tables and subforms. The 'max power density' and 'max rated power' are in table and subform 1 but 'cylinder capacity' is in table and subform 2. Is it possible to keep them in separate tables/subforms and still calculate the field?
Define A Field So That It Is Automatically Filled In With Value From Another Table?
Jan 28, 2015I would like to define a field (mailingaddresscounty) as type lookup using a field (county) from another table (Zip). But instead of the user selecting from a long list, I would like the selection to be automatically made based on the value of another field (mailingaddresszipcode).The two tables are Organizations and Zips. The user enters the 9 digit zipcode in the organization table (mailingaddresszipcode). I would like the county field in the organization table (mailingaddresscounty) to draw from (link to?) the corresponding 5 digit zipcode in the Zip table (zip) and return the correct county for that zipcode.
