I have a field which is formatted as currency. When a button is clicked, it shows the value of the field. Because it is a currency field, if you enter "10", it is immedatly changed to "£10.00", although when i use txtAmount.Value, it gives me the "10" value. This is especally a problem if pennies are used - if someone enters "15.10", the .Value reterned is "15.1", which makes it seem like "15.01" has been entered. How can I get the currency-type value form the field?
I have a database that I'm building off of a process that is currently done in excel. I want my percentages calculations to match what I get in excel but I'm finding the numbers to be off by as much as .4%. I'm pretty sure they issue has to do with the precision of its calculations but what the best settings are.
My percent numbers are currently set to the field size "Double" with a percent formatting. My currency numbers are set to the format Currency and decimal places on auto.
I have some Conditional Formatting of a Currency Field in an Entry Form. The cell is conditionally formatted with a yellow background when the value is zero.
I now wish to add an additional condition to the expression such that even if the value is zero it will not be formatted if a specific check box is TRUE.
I have tried modifying the expression such that it reads;
[currency field]=0 AND [check box]<>TRUE.
It correctly turns off the conditional formatting if the check box is ticked, but does not turn it on again when the check box is unticked.
how to change default currency in Access 2013 to a "foreign currency" (i.e. to Indonesia Rupiahs) without changing control panel (Region/Language>currency) - now setup as USA ($US)?
I have a question about an Access form that I am creating. I have a "Due Notes" field, which has Memo data type and I create a form "Estimates" using a text box with the control source is that "Due Notes" field to enter notes when needed.
Although I have the vertical scroll bar for that text box (due to other controls, I can not size the text box too big), does anybody know how to display that text box in form "Estimates" with the data of the last text within the size of the box without scrolling down so I can start typing for the next entry? Do I make sense to you?
Please help and let me know if you know HOW. Thanks so much in advance.
I wanted to create a field lookup with values that I specify, not on the table sheet, but on the form. User can click on a text box or combo box and can select a list of value that I specify, not values that are listed on a table but ones that I type in, in the form.
I have a currency field that is not saving pennies. (cents if you're Americian i suppose) :confused: if i put in pence it rounds it to the nearest pound.
I have tried setting the decimal places to "2", but that makes no difference :mad: :confused:
the table is called invoice
this also happens with the invoice form :mad: (i suspect for the same reason)
The database can be downloaded from: http://www.tapestriesdirect.com/Garage.mdb (996KB) or if you can unzip (who can't?!?) http://www.tapestriesdirect.com/Garage.zip (86.1KB)
I am importing a spreadsheet from Excel - the problem is that one of the columns in excel has a currency and text format (ex. $123,000 in B5 and 3M in B6). I know in Excel you can have both formats in one column since each cell can be formatted individually - how do I replicate this in Access?
If CIS = False Then CIS_Payment = "£0.00" Else CIS_Payment = "£20.00" End If
which works ok but what i want to do but do not know the correct way/syntax is:
If CIS = False Then CIS_Payment = "£0.00" Else CIS_Payment = "Labour_Total*18/100" End If
Where CIS_Payment and Labour_Total are currency fields, and CIS is a checkbox updated using an update query with the same info as detailed in another table (Couldnt get the conditions to work referencing the checkbox in the other table, so duplicated the box in both tables and used a query to sync)
I would like to know is there a way to create a mask on a form for a currency field? I don't want a user to be able to enter in like 125.145. I just want to make it so that people can only type in 125.14. Or how can I write VB code to give a warning when a user enter in more than two decimal places.

I have this expression I created and I want to know how to format it as currency. I know how to do it with a regular field but the option is not available for an expression.
The expression:
Code : Charge: IIf([Rate] Is Not Null,[Rate],"0.00")
I have a parent form and a sub-form. On the parent form is a date field [JOINED] and on the sub-form there is a date field [DATE PAID] and a field [BQ JOINING FEE] with a default format of currency.
I created a macro to set the value of [BQ JOINING FEE] to 0 if ([DATE PAID]>[JOINED]+60). It sets the value to 0 as required but I am unable to get it to format the result as currency.
This is my first post so can I just say how great and useful this forum has been for me since I joined! I have found pretty much everything I have wanted without having to ask, so thank you everyone!
I am only beginning with Access at the moment, as I try to implement some improvements to the way my company works!
I have one really simple, but annoying issue at the moment and I cannot find the answer anywhere!
I have a currency filed in my table. I want to format it in USD, but USD is not available in the format options, just £ and €. I cannot see where the hell I get the USD $ format from?
I know this is probably well simple and I am being a plum!
I have a calculated field in a query that generates a result that i need to display in forms/reports with the $ sign but zero decimal places (ie; rounded to the nearest $ value, $5).
If i use the sql format currency function (format (n, "currency",0) it always displays the $ sign but with two decimal places...
In the form/report text box property i set the format to currency, with the decimal places set to 0, but it still displays two decimal places (this property setting seems to make no difference other than displaying the $ sign). Is there something i am missing regarding the way access formatting works?
I have an unbound calculated field [Txt1] that I would like to show the result as currency. The fields in the calculation are:
[CR] number, currency [Commission1] general number, two decimal places [Commission2] general number, two decimal places
The calculation is: CR15W * (1 - Commission1) * (1 - Commission2) If I just set the field to currency it works fine. But I want the field to show the following: "Some Text" & " " & Format(Calculation, "Currency")
When I tried to include the format it to currency I get type mismatch, run time error 13.
So I thought that perhaps I should try the following just to see where my error starts and I get the same error message when I use:
Dim Val1 As String Val1 = CR15W * (1 - Commission1) * (1 - Commission2) Txt1 = Format(Val1, "Currency")
From a table I want a text field which has a path to a file to be copied automatically into a another field of the same table with a hyperlink text type...
I have a text box and currently this is my control source
="Testing " & [test]/3 test = 1000 so my text box reports: Testing 333.333333333333
Is there a way to make it into a form like $333.33...Also is there a way to make [test]/3 come out in a money text form? like "Three hundred thirty three dollars and thirty three cents.
