Hello all, I am new to the site and have found so much useful information and examples but one thing I haven't found yet. I am interested in knowing can someone post up an append example. Here is what I am trying to accomplish. I have a database with two tables. The fields are identical and I can vew either one with ease. The problem is I would like to be able to copy the information from the current table to the second one with a push of the button. I can create a button with the help of the wizard that copies the record but it only copies the record to the current table which I have open.
Another thing is when I try to close access, I notice I always get a messagebox asking me about the information that is copied on the clipboard (due to me trying to copy a record). Is there a way to supress this message so people won't see it.
I know this alot to be asking and I just got here but I will be sure to help out other members when I have the knowledge of the program.
Thank you all for reading this long post!
I am using the attachment field in my form in Access 2010. I downloaded a picture (a picture of paper clip) from the web to use it as the display image for the attachment field. When using the form, the paper clip picture is displayed so long as there is no attachment. When a file is attached, the display image changes to the type of file (in my case pdf). However, I want Access to display the paper clip icon.

I am trying to create a query that has a self referencing running total based on the values (point totals) of itself (running total of values in the running total column that have already been calculated for all previous records) plus the total of new points being added in the current record, less the total of points being removed in the current record. This running total can never go below 0, if it does, the running total should restart at zero and add in only new points and begin the process again with the next records
I am able to do this in Excel in less than two seconds so I know there has to be a way to port this into a query. I've attached an excel example of what I am exactly trying to do
If it takes multiple queries to complete the required output I am ok with it. In my previous outtakes I have had up to 8 queries but just couldn't seem to do it..
Hi,
1) I am pretty newbie to this access programming, do forgive me if my questions sounds stupid.
2) Basically I create an application in access capturing or production information for my company. now the top management suddenly wanted whats their main concern:- Total Daily/Monthly, Quarterly, Annual Sales (By Model If possible)
3) I start with daily (Lets don't be too overly ambitious).
4) I try to let user select dates from my calender control and reflect daily sales (in Total & By Model break down) insert into my form.
5) Understand someone told me from my previous post in Calender control I can achieve it either through forms or queries, which is a better way. (in terms of flexibility to change for program maintenance/ scalibility) wise ?
PS: Please forgive my ignorance :o:(
Thanks (In advance) & God Bless.
I am using calculated field as a data type in access 2010.
They are working fine.
However, I added a new field and now the final calc won't work.
I have Subtotal adding loads of fields together. Works fine.
Then I have a VATunit field which is a double integer, so enter 20 and my next field is VATTotal calculates the SubTotal + the VATunit by doing (Subtotal/100)*VATunit. This calculation is fine and gives me the correct amount.
The next field is a Total field. Which adds Subtotal and the VATTotal together. Howver, the Total is the same as Subtotal. It is not adding the VATTotal to it?
Hi!
I cannot stop Access 2002 from automatic creation of Total column for every column. Is there any method to compute totals only for some columns?
I would appreciate any help!
With kind regards

I have a personal expenditure data base indicating daily expenditure on various heads ( File Attached). I want table to reflect expenditure on various heads on daily basis in COLTOT column. Any subsequent change in any of the field to be dynamically updated.Presently I am exporting file to excel and calculating the total there and then manually updating the COLTOT field. Other alternative I tried was to create a form and make a text field and sum the fields using formula like =nz([milk])+nz([vegetables]). I feel it may be unwieldy for such large number of expenditure heads.
View 14 Replies View Relatedi would like to sum up 5 fields and save (or just show it in the form view is enough really) in a seperate field, i have managed to sum the 5 fields, but it summed up all 5 fields in all records, i'd like to have my form show the sum for the record, not the table.
it would be ideal that it would refresh when one of the 5 fields data changes, i.e from 1000 to 2000. again updating in the form view is what is needed.
I have a report that shows 3 pivot tables on the same page. What we would like to do is total (or perhaps subtotal) the three tables into a summary table.
each table has number code, name, data 1, data 2.
The three tables are identical with the exception of I filter on only specific number codes.
Currently I simply have a 4th pivot table with all the number codes and just hide all the rows except top and totals.
I would love to be able to use something like subtotal to simply display the totals (from my 3 tables)
I have a simple table named [Groups] containing a Primary key ID, a Group name, a Group Leaders name and a date field. The date field merely lists the date of a particular Group related occurrence.
I need to know how many records have dates entered and assumed a simple total would achieve this. The Total is correctly shown in the appropriate row but most, but not all, of the date records are converted to show the same 'total' number.eg the date 28/01/2014 is changed to !4. Quite a weird occurrence.
Is it the case that date records cannot be totaled, in which case, why not all?
Access 2010 ... I have 2 tables. One with base information second one is linked with multiple results each having a price. On table one i see the + sign when i click i can see the linked second table. Can i get a total amount of the price on table 2 on table one?
IE:
Table 1:
Trans ID - Seller - Quantity - Lot Cost - Parts Cost<-- the one i need total for.
123 - joe - 3 - $100 - $20 <-- the total of the 2 linked parts (Keyboard, Mouse)
Table 2:
ID - Trans ID - Part - Cost
1 - 123 - Keyboard - $10
2 - 123 - Mouse - $10
I want to create a table having. These fields
(1) amount paid
(2) total fund(calculated field that is =total fund-amount paid)
Up to here every thing is ok but U want to update the total fund field updated in the next row as remaining fund
as
amount paid--------total fund
5000------------20000
1000------------15000
0-------------14000
Any way of setting up a table containing the following date/time fields.
StartDate
StartTime
EndDate
EndTime
Ultimately I will need to be able to subtract these date/times to get a total time between the two. Should I combine the start date and times in one cell or keep them separate.
In either scenerio, how do I subtract the two in a query for a report?
I want a Text Box Query on my form to display the Status, Workshop, Time, Enrolled and Limit. The problem is these values come from two different tables and the Enrolled value comes from a single field that contains the different workshops.
What I mean is: In Table[Attendees] a row contains a customer's Number, First Name, Last Name, Workshop and Phone Number. The workshops vary for each customer so one row on the table could have John Doe attending Cover Letter Writing and the next row could have John Smith attending Resume Writing. What I want is to be able to count the different workshops within the Field[Workshop] and total them and then display the total in a Text Box Query. I have a Text Box Query set up displaying Status, Workshop, Time and Limit as these values all come from Table[Workshops].
So basically I need to Query to also display a result that is the Total for each workshop from Table[Attendees] and display the total for each workshop in a Query with data from Table[Workshops].
Here is a link to an Example Database [URL] ....
I'm trying to avoid putting things on different reports and the like because the people using this are basically computer illiterate and if they have to click a button (no matter how well labeled) they won't do it and the information might as well not exist.
And if there's a better way to do it, I'm all ears. The only thing is, I have to update these workshops month by month. Since they are dynamic, I want to avoid creating separate tables for each workshop.
I have a table with a number of fields and made a query to get some sums/totals.
In the query I made three fields :
Gast : DSum("[aantal]","TbBedrag","[Discipline] like 'gast*'")
Elec : DSum("[aantal]","TbBedrag","[Discipline] like 'elect*'")
Pumps : DSum("[aantal]","TbBedrag","[Discipline] like 'cent*'")
The first gives me the sum of ‘aantal’ where the ‘Discipline’ is Gasturbines, the second is the sum of aantal in electronics, etc.
I made another field which is supposed to give me the total of the three forementioned fields : totaal: [gast]+[elec]+[pumps]. The output of this field however does not give me the actual total, but writes the numbers of ‘Gast’, ‘Elec’ and ‘Pumps’ after another, instead of totalling the three numbers.
Strange, why would the total not give me the sum of the three calculated fields ?
Hello there
im having trouble summing a number of fields that contain a value of £0.00 or blank for example i have five fields on a form £2.50 £0.00 £3.00 £ £4.00 if all fields have a value then the correct total is displayed i have tried =([price1]+[price2]) ect or sum which does work but not if £0.00 or £ are used obviously the result i am after is total £9.50 can anyone help i want to be able to sum or add all fields to give a total including numbers £0.00 and blanks please no code because i wouldn't know what to do with it just keep it as simple as possible i intend to write the formula in the totals field not in the footer i would really appreciate your sugestions
many thanks Richard
Hi
I have made a database in access 2000, and in one of the reports i have "iff" statements in a field but if i try total the whole column it give s me a error:
=IIf([MATURITY DATE]<[DATE],0,FV(0.09569/12,[TERM],[PREMIUM ]/[MODE],-([PURCHASE PRICE]+[PREMIUM ACCOUNT]))) (EXAMPLE: of iff statement.)
this gives me the answer i want but i want to sum the whole column.
if i try sum total i get a error?

I am building a database to enter staff phone statistics. As an example my fields would be - Name, Date, Staffed time, Available time, Aux time and then calculated fields to show the percentage of time i.e %Aux, %Available etc.
My problem is the formatting of the times entered as they are duration not time. Say staffed time is entered as 08:00:00 for 8 hours and Aux time 03:57:21. The only format I can see to suit is date time but then Access takes these entries as 8am and 3:57am is there a way to change this to work as duration hh:mm:ss?
Well at the moment i'm still in the design stages, but i made a database with test fields to see how it would work out best.
Basically i have to have a form with a drop down list for each type of computer componant and when selected the total price for all the items selected so far needs to show up at the bottom of the form.
Or when a button is pressed the price could be updated, that is fine too!
The way i was planning to do it was having an orders page, in which each field was a lookup to a difference table, one for each componant
Processor; ProcID, Proc name, Proc cost
Anyone have any ideas on the easiest way to load the total value for the items selected? Would be much appreciated! Thanks!
O.K, I am really trying to figure this out from other postings but my limited query experience is limting my understanding of the other posts.
I only know how to use the query wiz and then a bit in design mode.
I have a Query
[ID]pk [Contest Name], [Score]
There will be many records for the same [Contest Name] in the underlying table. Therefore i want to sub total by [Contest Name] so i can then create a report. I have created the report perfectly using the Report support in another posting submitted. But the report does not allow me to order the results as the sum calc is a function on the report. Therefore I am now exploring the Query Sum [Score] order by [Contest Name].
I just need it in a Qery for dummies format.
Go into design mode and put the following in what portion of the query on what line.
I will keep on searching in the mean time
I have a query which returns charge_cost (based on course cost, whether it went ahead, if hospitals are eligible for charging etc) which is then used in an existing report.
I want to make another report which simply is:
Total training spend for 2004-2005:
£1276.04
And i just want that to be the SUM of charge_cost.
I cant work out how to do this - i did a new query including charge_cost and then created a new field called total_spend: sum([charge_cost]) but i keep getting the message "You tried to execute a query which does not include the specified expression charge_cost as part of an aggregate function"
I have no idea what this means...
Please Help. I am tring to get the Month to date, year to date and week to date total in a query. I added a parameter for a date range.

Hello,
I imported an excel worksheet (~20,000 entries) into Access, and I am
trying to extract some information. First I wanted to find duplicates,
and rank by duplicate appearance. I have gotten that part.
In my db, I have a column 'Qty' that specifies the number of times the
event occurred. At the moment, I only have the number of times the
event appeared in the db. I would like to factor in the number of times
now.
An example of my db would look like:
ID(access) Event Qty
1 A 10
2 B 100
3 C 30
4 A 60
5 A 50
So in my initial query, I get
Name:Query1
CountofID Event
3 A
1 B
1 C
However, to take this further, I want to be able to total the Qty field for each event. So, in this case, A actually needs to be 120, B needs to be 100, C needs to be
30.
My idea is to make a second query based off the first query, where one
item would be the Event# from Query1 (because that cut out all the
duplicates), and the second would be the all the number of occurences
of that event added up.
I did some searching before posting and this thread seems somewhat similar to what I need, but he is looking for a moderately different solution.
