I have two email addresses in a table one personal and one work and a question asking which to use, I have a query running from the table and have an IIF expression creating a field which looks to see which one to use (that all works fine !) anyway my client has now asked for an extra field in the query which combines the two email addresses, as in aaa@homedomain.com;bbb@workdomain.com so that I can run an email to both addresses at the same time. fraid I just can't figure it out ! I'm sure it's obvious, I can't find a similar question posted either, I've tried the expression builder using AND for the two email addressses but just end up getting -1 in field when I run the query, not the two email addresses separated by a ;
I am very inexperinced with Access, please be kind. My problem is that from the form view the simple division of 2 #'s are placed in the correct text box I selected, but I am unable to get the value to enter into the data table. Please help.
I having a problem with the expression builder in a table.I got a lot of fields with dates and I what a calculated field so I can see if any of the dates are newer than 7 days.I have been trying this formula:
I've now since moved everything into one table but i need formatting of my calculated field (I'm new to all this).
Below are the 3 expressions working independently of one another, I just need them combined in to one if possible. As I am getting an "invalid syntax" error or "too many arguments" when I try to get it working
PHP Code:
0.5*IIf([Type]="Offlist" And [APP_LINE_OFFA]>3,1,0)+0.2*IIf([Type]="Offlist" And [APP_LINE_OFFB]>2,1,0)+ IIf([Type]="Offlist",Abs([EP_DETAILS_OFF]*0.15+[REF_DETAILS_OFF]*0.15),0)
Currently I have a calculated field in my table; however, under certain circumstances I need to change the value to another value which is not related to the calculation. I understand that the calculated fields are read only (why is that?), so I was wondering if there was any way to change values within a calculated column without actually changing the expression itself.
I've can do this on excel but don't know how in Access. I'm calculating bonuses. My table has salaries, and my query simply multiples each salary amount by a % to get the bonus amount. But I need to calculate adjustments to the bonuses using the sum total of the bonuses my query calculated:
Salary (from table) Bonus (calc'd by query) Adjustment (to be calced)
100,000 1,000 Sum of total bonuses/salary*4% 90,000 900
How do I capture the total of my calculated bonus column to use to calculate the adjustments in my right-most column?
I tend to work with large amounts of data (extracts from company systems) and I create a lot of Access/VBA based tools to automate processes.
I have an annoying error which has always appeared but I don't understand the root cause of it.
When viewing a query, if I filter, I get an error message pop up (though after clicking through the error I can still use the filter function):
"syntax error missing operator in expression 'name of field'".
This seems to happen when I add several calculated fields. Here are some examples of the conditions and calculated field formulas I'm using in this current one:
Conditions: <>"CINEMATIC" And <>"SFX" Not Like "*_ZZ*" And Not Like "*test*" And Not Like "EP_*" [Forms]![FRMscriptPrintReview]![selectLangCombo]
I get the impression that its more of a bug with Access as the formulas aren't complicated really but need confirmation on this and if there is a way I can avoid it.
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
My query contains two calculated fields [TaxSavings1] and [TaxSavings2], which are based on some currency and number-type fields in one of my underlying tables.
I just created another field in my query which looks like: [TaxSavings1]+[TaxSavings2]. Instead of adding the two fields, it actually lumps the two numbers together. For example, if [TaxSavings1] =135 and [TaxSavings2]=30.25, it will give me: 13530.25. I need it just to simply add, i.e. answer of 165.25.
Does anyone know how to correct this? Thanks in advance.
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,
