I have a field in the a query with the following:
% OVER NB: 1-([Monthly MTA Table]!NB/[main inventory table]!PRICE)
I then format the column in properties to percent
When I try to put anything in the criteria I get an error "Division by zero"
I want to only the records that are greater then 80%
I'm trying to trouble-shoot an undocumented datbase built by someone else and running into a recurring problem. She has it set up where a macro runs several queries. When these macros are run, the queries cause "Division by Zero" errors which stops the macro in its tracks. The following is a query that causes this error, but by looking at this query, I see no place where a division takes place. I'm assumming that another porblem is occuring and Access just states that it's division by zero error when it's actually something else.
1) Has anyone seen a "Division by Zero" error when running a query when it's actually something else causing the problem?
2) Can anyone see from the query what could possibly cause this and give me a hint as to a good way to trouble-shoot these queries to possibly handle whatever problem is occurring.
Thanks,
The query is as follows:

I have a query with the following calc. but it has an error of 'division by o' when I run it. Some of the figures may be null or 0 within the fields and I still want it to return a % figure result
I know its probably the iif function but am not sure how to use it in this instance.
Process %: Sum([Process volume]*[se]/[minutes worked])
Thanks
I have a table named "Patients" with a field named "Code" and another field named "Patient" which contains the full name (LastName space FirstName) "Chaviatsos Nick" for example.
I want to make an other table from the table "Patients" with three fields:
1. A field named "Code"
2. A field named "LastName" which will contain the Last Name of the field "Patient" of the table 'Patients" and
3. A field named "FrstName" which will contain the Frst Name of the field "Patient" of the table 'Patients"
How Can I manage this?
Please help me with the round function. I want .5 to round to 1.
Here is an example of my data: (18+18+18+20)/4 = 18.5 rounds to 18. I want it to round to 19.
I used the following expression:
RoundACT Composite Score: Round((([Column1]+[Column2]+[Column3]+[Column4])/4),0)
Thank you.
Hi all
I've been using the following code to show Random records from an Access Database, the only problem with it is that every now and again it throws a "division by 0 error" any ideas how i can fix?
Code:strsql_videos = "select top 5 * from items ORDER BY RND(id)*(id*1000) MOD datePart('s', NOW()), id;"set rs_videos = server.createobject("ADODB.recordset")rs_videos.open strsql_videos, conn_videos, 3, 1, adCmdText
Iam hoping its possible with a few lines of code rather than some elaborate fix :P
So, I have some complicated calculations I am aliasing in my SQL query. My end goal would be to sort by my final calculation from all the other calculations I have performed but I am running in to some issues. I know I can't sort by referencing the alias itself without saying order by (column number). My calculations are usually pretty small (around .001 and up). Whenever I order by the column number I would like to use (select... from... where...order by 73) I get a "Division by zero" error in access. I figured this was an issue with how small the calculations were, so I multiplied by 1000000, then ordered by that column number. Still division by zero...I went ahead and changed all 0 values to 1, still division by zero. There are no zero values in the column itself, it's either 1 or something in the thousands. I can order by other columns, just not the one I want to use. I don't want to have to re-do my entire calculations in my order by clause.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have made a query with to take the percent difference of two mileages and then if they are greater than 2.5% to put a 1 or if not a 0. I try and put a 1 in criteria in order to only see the ones that are changed by greater than 2.5% and I get the divide by zero error. Any ideas how to fix this problem.
Here is my IFF statement
diff: IIf((Abs(([Mile1]-[Mile2]))/[Mile1]>=0.025),1,0)
I am running a very simple query that divides profit over turnover to show the margin. I have many queries throughout my database that do this, here is my little formula;
Margin: Round(([profit]/[Turnover])*100,2)
Now, this runs just fine but if I put in a criteria of <10 I get the division by zero error. The reason I am confused is that there are no zeros or error values or even negative values in either of the profit or turnover columns?
Also I have an almost identical query in another database that has a <5 criteria in it and it works a peach.
I have searched but all I am getting is the usual definition of the division by zero error.
