So I have a simple table with Date, Points Earned, Points Used and Client ID number. Id like to tally the points for each client ID, after each time they either use or earn points. How do I do this?
View RepliesI 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?
I have broken up by master database, table, into several tables. They all share the same ID values since they came from the master table. So each table that I split off has a unique, matching, identifier, ID, in both the master table and the new table. Plus a previous matching identifier listed immediately below.
Example: Permit the master or main table and Builder a supporting table. There are five tables that I split off and all have an identifier similar to the two listed below.
Permit->ID
Permit->BLD
Builder->ID
Builder->BLD
All my tables have the same ID. But each table also has a identification numbers such as builder BLD, Subdivision SB and inspector INS>
Permit has the BLD, SB and INS
Builder has only one occurrence for each builder in the Permit table. As in the past it was identified by BLD number and now also ID. the use of BLD is from when I used visual dBase. The big difference here is that I have two ways to identify one is ID any other is by BLD, etc. My first thought is to identified by the BLD. I don't know why, but I guess I fear using a single "ID" to identify my various split off tables unique value or BLD.
Table1 contain Two fields (3Months) and (6Months)
Table2 contain Two fields (3Months) and (6Months)
the table 2 is the source of a form that will let the user change the numbers. table 1 should change Date1 and Date2 Fields based on the two fields (3months) and (6months) if i want to make a lookup wizard it should be changed manually and if i make a calculated field i can't find other tables in the expression builder
I want the user to be able to see the source/reference of (many of) the different data points in my database, so I need to store sources/references in the database itself. I want to have all references in one single/common table (list of references). Each reference may be the source of many data points, in different columns in a given table, and in different tables. Is this possible, and can it be done in an elegant way?

I am assuming by the error code, one can not use a calculated field to calculate another field.
I’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.
I'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?
Access 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.
I'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?
I 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."
I have a
Order Table:
Order ID(Autonumber)
Client ID(Text)
Client Name(Short Text)
Install Gross Rate (Currency)
Install Discount Given in % (Number)
Install Discount Given in GBP (Currency)
Then I designed a Query to calculate the Install Net Rate
Query
I selected
Client ID
Client Name
Order ID
Expression: [Install Gross Rate]*(1-[Install Discount Given in %]/100)-[Install Discount Given in GBP]
I run the query, but only ONE order calculated correctly, rest of Orders returned blank row.
I am trying to make my primary key in my table a calculated field.
I want the field to be subject + catalog + topic no. The only problem is that there is not always a topic no.
How would I write this expression?
Is there anyway to set a calculated field as the primary key? Or how to duplicate the value of a calculated field into a new field and set the new field as the primary key?

Have a table with columns of data which I want to total at the end of each row. The Calculated Field does this simply enough but it only seems to be able to add whole integers? How do I get it to accept and add values to 2 decimal places?
My form has a Memo field that stores "To Do" descriptions. My user wants to be able to add bullet points next to their entries. There could be multiple To Do's in a single field.
Any help is appreciated.
Access 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?
i want to insert a calculated value of a e.g field6 (field4 * field5) in forms into the database table. by using expression builders in my forms. i have made that feild and on click it shows the calculated value but on filling in the rest of the form and clicking on Insert button does not update this calculated field but iserts all other fields.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI 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.)
I have table of transaction data, I want to count the number of successful customer transactions but the table includes cancelled transactions with a negative value. 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"
I am trying to create a calculated field in my table, I am trying to use the following code:
DatePart("ww",[Gas]![Date Opened])
I receive the following error message: "The expression DatePart("ww",[Gas]![Date Opened]) cannot be used in a calculated column."
Access 2007 - I really need to be able to display the week number in the table, based on the Date Opened field.
The 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?
To start: Running Office 20003. I have created a survey with Frontpages wizard. Basically It has a topic and the end user rates that topic on a scale of one to five like so:
1. Work Environment
a. I enjoy my work place. 12345
b. I think my office has a good reputation. 12345
1-5 are radial buttons. It takes the users input and stores it in an access database as im sure you all are aware. Looks kinda like this:
1a 1b 2a etc.
3 5 1
What i would like to do is this: When the users are done submitting i would like to go back and take results. I.e. we had this many users select option 3 for question 1a and we had _ number of users select option 2 for 1a, etc.
The thing is i was wondering if there was a way to create a query for it. I know i could just put =1 or =2 but that would require running 5 queries on each question.... not fun. Anyway, any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

I 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.
I have what is probably a stupid question but I've been struggling with this one for a while. I have an ordering database which has an Orders table (containing Order ID, Date, Supplier etc) and an Order Line table within which I have a combo box for Product name, supplier, price, VAT rate, Line price etc. At the moment, I have the order line table as a subform within the Order form (run from the Orders table). The problem I'm having is the subtotal and total fields. At the moment these are in the Order Line table as I cannot figure out how to get these in the Orders table. In summary, can I make a calculated field in one table that calculates values from another table (linked by Order ID)?
View 3 Replies View RelatedMy query contains two calculated fields [TaxSavings1] and [TaxSavings2], which are based on some currency and number-type fields in one of my underlying tables.
I just created another field in my query which looks like: [TaxSavings1]+[TaxSavings2]. Instead of adding the two fields, it actually lumps the two numbers together. For example, if [TaxSavings1] =135 and [TaxSavings2]=30.25, it will give me: 13530.25. I need it just to simply add, i.e. answer of 165.25.
Does anyone know how to correct this? Thanks in advance.
