I Have a field that I need to manipulate the data in.
sample data follows [Field9]:
1 to 1 (cover page)
1 to 3 (no cover page)
etc..
this field identifies number of fax pages sent, eg
“1 to 1 (cover page)” is actually 2 pages, an attachment plus cover page
“1 to 3 (no cover page)” is actually 3 pages, 3 page attachment without cover page
What I want is just the total number of pages in this field.
I have written two expression that dissects the field in two, left hand side gives me a numeric number of attachments and right hand side a numeric value for the existence of a cover page or not.
I have a query I'm working with that finds data that changes, calculates the numbers, then prints a result in another column. The problem is that if I don't have any changes, then I have a blank result. Normally this wouldn't be a problem, but I'm making reports available to other users and would like this populated.
What seems simplest is to add an expression in the criteria field for the column that displays data after crunching numbers. Since this only has a display if something has changed, then I need an expression added if there is no data. Can I add something like an IsNull expression to display the results from another column in the same table? The data will end up being redundant, but I'm ok with that for now. the report should probably have the expression, but the column is already here in this table.
in my daily roll call report i have 2 groups..."on program" and "graduates" these 2 groups are creating in the query...as u see in the 2nd pic... the expression as followed
i will clarify that i took out the names in the roll call but both groups are sorted by the date they came in going down the list..now i need to add another group "Staff Members" to my roll call.every way i have tried altering the query expression or the report expression result in a blank roll call.
I need to be able to add x months to a given date which I'm using in a criteria expression. I've figured out that I can just add y number of days, but the answers aren't quite accurate across different ranges of months.
I'm after something like <[BeginDate] And >([BeginDate]+[3months])
but I haven't turned up anything useful in an hour of googling - finding it difficult to define what I want in search engine terms.
I'm having difficulty in adding decimal amounts to a percentage expression.On a form in a text box I have a percentage expression of 73.38%. In a combo box I have a drop down menu of: 0.75, 0.5, 0.25, 0, -.25, -.5, -.75With another text box I would like to have the decimal amounts added to the percentage. For example, 73.38% + .5..Which will equal in the text box: 73.88%
now i want to split it up. i want to count all the records for each month. my field name is datein_now but its just a normal textfield and not a date field. example in field: 05/02/02 10:24:31 AM. also got a datein textfield:05/02/02 i had Count(*) where datein_now between 05/05/01 and 05/05/31
I need help setting up an expression. I need to set the default value = date + 2. But this also needs to take into account working days. I am just having problems with the syntax for this, as i would normally do this in VBA and do not have much experience with Expression Builder. And yes it does have to be done in Expression Builder.
I know this is horribly wrong... thats why I am asking for help. IIf ((WeekDay(DateAdd ("d", 2, Date)) = 1, (DateAdd("d", 3, Date)),(DateAdd("d", 2, Date))) OR IIf (WeekDay(DateAdd ("d", 2, Date)) = 7, (DateAdd("d", 4, Date)),(DateAdd("d", 2, Date))) OR IIf (WeekDay(DateAdd ("d", 2, Date)) < 7 AND IIf (WeekDay(DateAdd ("d", 2, Date)) > 1, (DateAdd ("d", 2, Date),(DateAdd("d", 2, Date)))
I need 3 If statements: 1 for if its Saterday 1 for if its Sunday 1 for if its neither.
In VBA I would do something like this: If WeekDay(DateAdd ("d", 2. Date)) = 1 Then Box = Date() + 3 If WeekDay(DateAdd ("d", 2. Date)) = 2 Then Box = Date() + 4 If WeekDay(DateAdd ("d", 2. Date)) > 1 And WeekDay(DateAdd ("d", 2. Date)) < 7 Then Box = Date() + 2
could i get some advise on an expression i need in a query?
i have 5 fields SumMats,SumLabs,MatsDed,LabsDed,Ttreat
i need another field that will give a value on a condition. the condition is that if LabsDed isNull, MatsDed will be divided by Ttreat otherwise LabsDed will be divided instead. can this be done? if so, how could i do it?
Maybe i am totally confused but here is initially what i have and what i want to do.
I currently have a db for carrer development-- i have three fields
Last Review Date Next Discussion Due Status
My next discussion due is on the fly-- i did a dateadd (by one year) from the last review date to get the current result for the next disussion due--
here is what i want to do with the status and am confused with how to do it-- i want the status to have three options-- completed,overdue and upcoming-- i want these to be autogenerated but am unable to find what expression i need-- as the IIf expression only gives the option of two possible results--
so how would i go about doing the expression with having three possible outcomes?
I am trying to execute a query that calculates a retail pricing off the whsl pricing. This is the excel calculation i use: =IF(F2<10,(SUM(F2*4)),(SUM(F2*2))). I changed the IF to IIF, and replaced "F2" with "[WHSL PRICE].
However, I am getting an error that the "category" expression is not included in the function (when I have all the fields in the query) or the function if I have just the field I am trying to calculate in the query. Can somone help me understand what I am doing wrong.
I would also like this calculation to save in the table, if possible. As I use this information to update my fields in my web database.
;) I want to create a field named ErrorCases that sums the rows meeting the following conditions: The row has a ValidityReason = 2 and for the same row ExpValidity is either null or 3. I want a count of the rows meeting these condtions.
Here is the formula I have constructed that does not work.
ErrorCases: Sum(IIf(([ValidityReason]="2" And [ExpValidity] Is Null) Or ([ValidityReason]="2" And [ExpValidity]="3"),1,0))
I having some trouble trying to use an expression in my query, I have 3 indivisual exoressions in 3 fields I which work perfectly, however I want only 1 field produced so I tried placing 1 after the other as below:
How can i write an expression in a query field that will return the following text; "A","B","C","P" and "F" Base on another field when the values of that field are <=44.44, between 44.45 and 54.44, Between 54.45 and 64.44, Between 64.45 and 74.44 and above 74.45 respectively?
LETS SAY I HAVE THREE PART NUMBERS FOR DIFFERENT MANUFACTORS. IF THE USER SELECTS GE MANUFACTOR THEN THE GE PART NUMBER SHOULD BE LISTED IN PART NUMBER. I GET ERRORS WITH THIS EXPRESSION IN MY QUERRY
Expr1: IIf([MANUFACTOR SENT]="GENERAL ELECTRIC",[PART NUMBER]=[GE PART #])
this expression works fine in my querry....but i need to add to it...if the user doesnt choose 2...if he chooses 1 then i need the sylvania part number or if he chooses 3 i need the phiilips part number....so i used this expression
IIf([MANUFACTOR SENT]=2,[GE PART #])IIf([MANUFACTOR SENT]=1,[sylvania PART #])IIf([MANUFACTOR SENT]=3,[phillips PART #])
but i get errors....how do you you string the expression...or what should i do to fix
I can't seem to be able to build the right expression to achieve this. I can easily code this through a form using VB, but I assume it is equally possible through just a query.
I would be grateful for any and all help people can provide,
I am trying to write an expression that will compare names in a field to see if they are the same. then as long as the name is the same i need a field to add another field and then subtract yet another field but if there is nothing in the subtract field then i just want the answer of the two added fields.
I need a help with an expression basically I have a date taken out field and I need to find out how long a video has been taken out for since the day taken out :confused: I need it to create a new field in the query and display how many days it has been taken out.
