Total Does Not Sum
Aug 24, 2006
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 ?

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.

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...

One of the tables in the database has these fields
st1: st2: st3: st4: Date:
pass fail fail pass 10/21/05
fail pass fail pass 10/22/05
and so on. What I need to do is extract the number of passes and fails on each of the four stations and put them into a report. User will have to enter either one date or a date range.
Right now, i'm having to create a 8 queries for to find Count of Pass and Fail on each station and make a master query. And I because it's not grouping everything together I can't figure out a way to get a date range...
Please help,

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.

Any help is appreciated, Cheers.

Hello all,
I again ran into something that I can't figure out.
I have a table:
Date
Time
FirstName
LastName
SSN
InAmount
OutAmount
I need a query to sum up the InAmount and OutAmount into one total based on the SSN. This query is placed into a form that is then placed onto another form. The form is to alert the user if the amount of the Inamount and Outamount of a unique SSN totals above $10,000.01 on the current date.
So for example if on 01/01/07 if SSN=111-11-1111 has an Inamount of $5,000.00 and an OutAmount of $5,000.01 thus totaling $10,000.01, then the person's name will appear on the form list. This will change/clear when the date is 01/02/07.
Any Ideas on how to accomplish this?

Ahhhh this is doing my nugget in!!! I have a simple table with 4 fields
ID (unique number)
DATE (date)
CAPACITY (number of SKU we can hold)
ORDERS (number of SKU on order)
the data looks like this
ID DATE CAPACITY ORDERS
1 01/01/2007 250000 250000
2 02/01/2007 250000 300000
3 03/01/2007 250000 300000
4 04/01/2007 250000 300000
So looking at the above table we can see that we have more orders than capacity in our factory, however they require to see this in graph form, so what I need is for each ID a running total of the CAPACITY and ORDERS so over a given date range i would produce a graph to find the "pinch points" where we could see if the capacity is less than the orders we have over time.
so my new table would be:
ID DATE CAPACITY ORDERS CAPRUN ORDRUN
1 01/01/2007 250000 250000 250000 250000
2 02/01/2007 250000 300000 500000 550000
3 03/01/2007 250000 300000 750000 850000
4 04/01/2007 250000 300000 1000000 1150000
etc. which i would create my graph from. Ive looked at Dsum and some other methods but cant get my head around it so any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks Steve.

Hey All,
I must first apologize for my total stupidity when it comes to MS Access but this is something that should be soooo easy but I can't seem to figure it out for the life of me.
I'm working on a database and the two biggest issues I have at the moment are clearing all fields when I save the record or open up the form to enter new records. The second big issue I have is when I do a query I'd like for only the records belonging to the specified customer or location to be entered into the fields.
If anybody can help please respond and I can email you a basic mock-up of my current database in hopes that one of you magical people out there can help a poor guy out. This is for my mother-in-law so you can understand my panic. hehe
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

I need to create a report that shows profit/loss totals for a vehicle that I have listed in a table named "Vehicle Table". I have four columns: Cost, Shipping, Promotional expense, Repair, that I need to total and then subtract from the sales price to show the profit. Then, divide the profit by different percentages to show what I owe each salesman. I need to keep the different columns seperate and be able to increase the dollar amounts in each column as a new invoice is received for each vehicle.
For example, I have a $25.00 wash job in the "Repair column" and then I have to install a new set of tires for $450.00. The total in the "Repair Column" should now be $475.00. I can not make it add to the current balance in each of the certain columns. Would someone be so kind and help?
