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)

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 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?Thanks for any help.
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")
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.
Having some problems with a calculated field on a form. The field came from my table but I typed in the calculation (=[cost_price]+[sale_price]) and it works fine but it wont save to my table so when I run a repot off it doesnt have any of the calculated values because they arent saved in my table??? Can anyone help?
On a form there is a sub form.On the form I can only cycle through the records that have been created since the last time the form was opened. I cannot cycle through all records. Is this normal for a form. I assume some code might change this behavior.
More importantly when I look at the sub form in datasheet view I notice the first field of each record is not displayed (saved?) unless it is the very last record created. (This field has a SQL statement as a row source). Is this normal - or are the last 2 paragraphs descriptions of the same thing?
I have a List box set to YES and default value set to YES.I would like to hide this field and when I click SAVE in my form, I would like to save it to my table.I did set the control source to the field that I want but somehow it is not working unless if I click on to YES then save.How do I set it in such a way which will save even without me clicking on to the LIST BOX?I want the default value to be saved when I click SAVE command button.
Help!! I have a form created on a query. I created a field to add up the cost of all components on the form and now I need to save it to a field in a table so that I can run a report (my invoice)! Any suggestions??
I have a form that has a bunch of project information and scrolling buttons at the bottom to browse by next/last.
Right now the form is sorted by the ID associated with the project, which kinda sucks because they were and are not put in alphabetically.
I discovered if you right click on a field and click "Sort Ascending" or the opposite it works fine but when I open the database it is right back to normal ID sort
I have checked the Data and Other tabs but can't find anything with regards to this as well as I have tried sorting the actual table by name and that changed nothing.
