I have a query where one field is a calculated field dividing one field summed by another field summed. But when looking at the data in excel, I figured out that one of the fields was adding a fraction onto the number when I summed up the whole column including the field name leading me to believe that Access was doing this as well.
View RepliesIn my database when an item is currently being loaned the item's loaned field will have a 1 to indicate this. When the item is returned the value is 0. Only so many items are available and when I use the DCount function it is counting the 0s as 1s.

There are about 75 distinct sets of ID's and Names not shown here
The rows were sorted by the Mtr_Readings and we have to take the best four readings out of each group and average them. If a group has more than four rows then the top 4 are taken out and the balance is discarded. If the group has four rows or less all of the rows are taken.
I did try nested select statements and kept getting "invalid argument to function" exceptions.
Hey, I'm new to microsoft access, and I could do with a little help please :) . On a database I have created, I have a table with the field "Results" in it. This field has been set up in the Lookup properties to be a choice from "Win" "Loss" or "Draw". My question is, what is the expression I would use to count the total number of records in my form with "Win" selected?
I tried to set up the DCount expression, but this gave me some odd results.
Currently my database is set up like this,
TBL_Match_Results:
Fields:
GameNumber (Autonumber + Primary key)
Date
Result (With the choices above)
Then I made a continuous form from this table, and on the Form Footer I had a text box with the value,
=DCount([GameNumber],"TBL_Match_Results",[Result]="Win")
I had hoped this would simply give me the total number of records with a win in them. However, insted the value changes depending on which record I have selected on the form. It is "10" if the selected record is a win, or "0" if it is not. I'm not sure if the problem is the poorly written expression (I'm not 100% sure how to work them), or if I'm even using the right expression (I was only told to use DCount). If anyone could shed some light on this, I would greatly appreciate it!
EDIT: I've just realised where the 10 is coming from, it's the number of records in my table, when i added a new one it changed to 11.

I am working on a report that has a text field with "YES" or "NO" in it. This is not a yes/no field. Is there a way to count the number of "YES"'s and "NO"'s? There will also be some records that will not have anything listed. See example below.
Failed Patients
Item 1 - YES
Item 2 - NO
ITEM 3 - NO
ITEM 4 -
ITEM 5 - YES
ITEM 6 -
Total Failed Patients - 4
I need to count the number of entries for a particular item located in a table. To keep it simple, we have a database used to process orders for Turkeys, this database has a field for each order called "Long legged Weight". In order to sort the turkeys in the shed, we need to know how many of each weight there are.
Order Number / 10-12 / 11-13 / 12-14 / 13-15 / (etc)

hi there
I'm building a forum from the scrath. It is already working, but I want to have in each topic the number of replies it has.
there are 2 tables, one for the topics and other to the replies. in the replies table there is a field called id_post that has the id of the post witch it belongs.
I solve the problem by inserting a query inside the loop of the posts:
<%
While Not rs.EOF
%>
<%
Set rs2 = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
sql = "SELECT COUNT(*) as cont FROM replies where id_post= " & rs("id") & " "
rs2.Open sql,Conn,1,2
%>
post: <%=rs("post")%> replies:<%=rs2("cont")%>
<%
rs.MoveNext
wend
rs.close%>
but someone told that this would make the page slower, so I want to know if I can do the same thing without having the query inside the loop.
I don't know if I made myself clear, sorry for that.
tks for the help.
I am trying to build a calculated field that counts the number of times the letter E appears in 8 fields. the query currently looks like the attachment.
I need to have one more field , lets call it NetFlags, that is the number of times the Letter E is in the row for each Technician.
So for Brown, Tom NetFlags = 2, for White, Paul NetFlags = 4 and Wills,Fred = 0
I am looking to do a calculated field. Not sure what is the best way to do this, but I would like to have a dates in a table with all of our employees that has what date they started with the company. From that I want to know not how many days they have been with the company, but just the years.
So if I have been with the company 364 days, it should only show up as 0, and if I have been with the company for 365, it will read 1. I would like this to be in a query somehow. We use the number of years they have been with the company for their pay, and need it to be years, and not days.
I would like to count a field if another is empty. I have 2 fields "registered" and "Started" and "closed"I would like to count all the fields "registered" if the field "started" is empty. I also want to do it with "started" if "closed" is empty.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a report which is based on a query. The query combines information from TBLDwgReg and TBLDwgRegDtls. The unique field linking these two tables is DrawingNo. The query - QRYDtldDwgReg - is showing 99% of the information I want to see.
My problem is this - one drawing can be revised several times. I have my report grouped by IssuedBy and then grouped by DrawingNo. In the group footer for IssuedBy I want to count the number of drawings issued by a particular consultant. For example...the structural engineer has issued 17 drawings for a particular project but when I do a count it is returning a total 27 because some of those drawings have been revised.
I tried grouping in the query and counting the DrawingNo field there but that's not working either.
there are 3 options Yes Somewhat and Not really I want to count the records that only have Yes.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm creating a database for my wife to use in her work, one of the fields is dates visited and the user should enter "00/00/0000, 11/11/1111, 22/22/2222, 33/33/3333" in this format. The field is a large text format because there could be anything from 1 date to hundreds. What I need to be able to do is in my query I need to enter 2 dates and have access return a how many dates exist between those 2 date values. eg It will pop up a box asking for start date and then another asking for end date and then it has to return the count total of how many dates exist between those two date values. I don't know VB and have had only basic training in Java and C# none of which involved Access. The only way I can think of doing it is to have access count the number of commas within the date field required but I don't know the formula required assuming it can even be done.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a report due the first of each week in which I need the cases open and cases closed for the previous week, the week two weeks prior and the 2007 and 2006 year to date on two different types of cases. I have a case management table with a field for Type of Case, date assigned and date closed that I uses in my queries. Presently I have two query, one that generates only Type 1 cases from the Case Management Table and another for Type 2. I then use the Type 1 Query in another query that limits the results for Type 1 cases to those opened last week, one for those open two weeks ago, one for 2006 YTD and one for 2007 YTD. In these 4 queries I have one field [Type of Cases] and I have the query count. I then do this for Type 2 cases and then go through the whole process to do Closed Cases. All my queries have criteria to automatically filter the dates to the time periods mentioned above. I then have one report query that I put all the number in for my report. This query has 16 fields with the numbers for each period, last week open and closed, 2 weeks open and closed, etc. I then generated a report that takes these numbers from my report query and puts it in a report format automatically. As you can imagine this takes some time to go through each query to generate these numbers, so I was wondering how I may do this differently. Also, I have experienced a problem when a field produces no records I get a blank sceen with nothing under the Count of column and get the same thing for my report. How can I fix this.

I have a table with the following 4 fields (these are the ones i'm having the issue with but there are others).
ID, Country, City, Date
I enter data into this table via a form
The ID is an auto number. The date is simply enetered.
The Country Field is a lookup (in the table itself) with the following lookup properties
Display Control: Combo Box
Row Source Type: Value List
Row Source: "England";"Spain";"France" etc
Now the problem...
I also want a lookup in the City combobox (on the form) which changes to reflect what was selected in the Country field.
E.G
If in the Country Field Spain is selected then in the City Field I should have the option of selecting Barcelona, Madrid, Valencia etc.
I was told to use the following code in the afterupadate of "parent combobox":
Private Sub ComboCountry_AfterUpdate()
Select Case Me.ComboCity
Case "Test"
Me.ComboCity.RowSource = "A;B;C"
End Select
End Sub
Ive tried it but as always i get an error when i use the country drop down...
A pop up box with:
Compile error:
Method or data member not found
and visual basic opens with the top line of the code "Private Sub Country_AfterUpdate()" highlighted in yellow, and the ".RowSource =" is highlighted in blue.
These are the properties of my form
My Country Combobox is called - "Country"
My City Combobox is called - "City"
I have put the above code in the after update of the "Country" combobox as below:
Private Sub Country_AfterUpdate()
Select Case Me.City
Case "England"
Me.City.RowSource = "London;Manchester;Leeds"
End Select
End Sub
Anyone know where the error in the code is? Obviously i have reduced the code to include only one case.

Is it possible to call a function from a field on a form, ie, in the
control source put = FunctionName(abc)? Then I want to concantenate
it to another variable so it would look like:
=FunctionName(abc) & TextVariable
I tried this and got the ?Name on the form, like it couldn't find the field
name, which is really a function I'm calling.
Is this possible and if so, what am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance for any help.
I am trying to , create a field using the IIf function that will display a $250 bonus for agents every time they sell a car for at least $20,000. Otherwise, the function will return a 0. Name the field Bonus. I put in Bonus: IIf(SalePrice >= "20,000" Then + "250",True, 0) and it is saying that I have an improper syntax.
View 2 Replies View RelatedAs you can see the purpose of this function code is to register into the TblLogChanges every single record exclusion or record change made in any form field of my project when the form is active. In other words if the user changes for example the value of the field Color in the form FrmX from Yellow to Black, the TblLogChanges will have added a line indicating: FrmX, type of change (record change or record exclusion), RecordId (in my case CADID), Current User, Date, and a complimentary string showing Field Color old value=Yellow --> Field Color new value=Black.It works fine when the field "old" value is populated (not null). However, if the feld old value is null, meaning, if the field value is originally null, or yet if the field is originally empty, and I fill it up with some data, then the code does not add an indicative line into the table TblLogChanges.
See function code below.
FYI the function is called in both Before Update and Delete events of the form with the following syntaxes: =logChangeFrmCadastro("E") for record exclusions, and =logChangeFrmCadastro("A") for record changes.
I have failed so far to make it happen. Reason is I'm able to read and understand most written syntax but still not good enough to create my own codes since I do not know to use the range of VBA commands and syntaxes available yet. This is a knowledge gap I'm doing my best to fill in.
what function code changes are required so the function be able to add an indicative line into TblLogChanges when the user changes a form field from "empty/nothing" to something?
Code:
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Function LogChangeFrmCadastro(strTipo As String)
On Error Resume Next
Dim db As Database, rslog As Recordset
Dim frm As Form, I As Integer

Hi,
In the query field i am putting: -
Consecutive Months: Query_Month_Consecutive([Report_2_group_data].[Availability], array([Monthly_availability_CT].[12],[Monthly_availability_CT].[11],[Monthly_availability_CT].[10],[Monthly_availability_CT].[9],[Monthly_availability_CT].[8],[Monthly_availability_CT].[7],[Monthly_availability_CT].[6],[Monthly_availability_CT].[5],[Monthly_availability_CT].[4],[Monthly_availability_CT].[3],[Monthly_availability_CT].[2],[Monthly_availability_CT].[1]))
Basicly the values of them fields are entered into the query, all fields exist and everything is ok.
Anyhow the function is not loaded, i have tested with a simple msgbox and it does not do it.
However when i simply do
Consecutive Months: Query_Month_Consecutive([Report_2_group_data].[Availability], Monthly_availability_CT].[12)
It works and the msg box appears?
I really need it to be an array for what im doing any help would be great
Thanks

I am struggling with the DateDiff fuction in a calculated field. After some study, I have used several variations of:
=(DateDiff("d",[DUED],Date())/7)
to calculate the time (in weeks) until a due date starting from today's date.
It continually turns up a specific date in the late 18 and early 1900's. It does not give me the number in weeks which was what I was hoping for.
Earlier I used a very simple: =DateDiff("m",[Birthdate],Date()) to calculate the age from a date of birth perfectly with no problems.
I do not understand why the formula is not working. Does it have to do with format or the fact that I am working with a future date and how can I rectify this problem?
