Queries :: IIF Statement - Syntax Error (comma) In Query Expression

Aug 4, 2015

I'm trying to run a very basic iif statement to correct hourly data for sorting. Basically, a trading day runs from 8am - 8am, so I need to adjust the hours to ensure that 1am on the 15th trading day (really the 16th on the calendar), comes after 9am on the 15th trading day (which will actually be the 15th on the calendar).

Here's what I've used. It's driving me bananas, because it keeps telling me that there's a syntax error (comma) in the query expression, but I can't understand why?

Sort2: IIf([DELIVERY_HOUR]<8,[DELIVERY_HOUR]+24,[DELIVERY_HOUR])

Syntax Error In IIF Statement

Feb 20, 2008

Hi,

I need help with the following question.

I got the following error when loading up a form:

IIf(Not IsNull([SubJobName]) Or [SubJobName]<>"",[SubJobName],[JobName]) AS Expr1, [SubJobs].Status

Can you have IIF statement in the query expression? because it said "Syntax
error in string in the above query expression".

The full codes i have in the form load is
Private Sub Form_Load()
strSQL = "SELECT [Jobs].JobID, [SubJobs].IndustryNo, [SubJobs].ClientNo, [SubJobs].JobNo, [SubJobs].SubJobNo, IIf(Not IsNull([SubJobName]) Or [SubJobName]<>"",[SubJobName],[JobName]) AS Expr1, [SubJobs].Status"
strSQL = strSQL & " FROM [SubJobs] INNER JOIN [Jobs] ON ([SubJobs].JobNo = [Jobs].JobNo) AND ([SubJobs].ClientNo = [Jobs].ClientNo) AND ([SubJobs].IndustryNo = [Jobs].IndustryNo)"
strSQL = strSQL & " WHERE ((([SubJobs].Status) = -1))"

Me!ListBox_Jobs.RowSource = strSQL

End Sub


Thank you in advance

Nested If Statement Syntax Error

Aug 29, 2007

Hello,

I'm new to working with Access Iif statements. I'm attempting to change data values in an existing table for column named "Status." Some of the data in this column has the correct value (Active) that needed represented, while the rest is populated with either a "J" which is Active or "T" which is inactive. I needed an update query that will ignore any values that are already "Active," and convert any values that are "J" to Active and values that are "T" to "Non Active." Any help would be greatly appreciated. Below is the function I have written that's full of syntax errors:

IIf(([STATUS] T,"T") = "T", then "Non Active"), IIf([STATUS] J,"J") = "J" then "Active"), else Active = "Active"))

Queries :: Syntax Error Using IF In SELECT Statement

Jun 15, 2015

I'm trying to replace a null value with $0.00 for the second field in a query. My first try at the SELECT stmt did not contain any solution for a NULL value. The result was that it skipped the record. I need it to show 0.00 because the field is used in another calculated field.

My SQL:

SELECT tblRecovery.CustID, IF((Sum([tblRecovery.RecAmt]) IS NULL, 0.00, (Sum([tblRecovery.RecAmt]))) AS SumOfRecAmt
FROM tblRecovery
GROUP BY tblRecovery.CustID;

This returns : Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression 'IF(( etc.

After clicking "OK", access highlights AS in the statement. I'm not sure how to deal with the NULL value or fix the error?

Queries :: Syntax Error (missing Operator) On IIF Statement

Jan 31, 2014

I'm using the following for a field in a query:

ITINERANT: IIf([Day and Time1] Is Not Null,[Day and Time1],IIf([Day and Time2] Is Not Null,[Day and Time2],IFF([Day and Time 3] Is Not Null,[Day and Time 3],IFF([Day and Time 4] Is Not Null,[Day and Time 4],IFF([Day and Time 5] Is Not Null,[Day and Time 5]," ")))))

I'm getting the error message: Syntax error (missing operator).

I'm not very good at using the IIF statement.

I have 5 concatenated fields that may or may not have info.

I want to display all of the info or if blank; show nothing in the one field.

Also, would I be able to have a return after each of the 5 concatenated fields?Not sure how to do that in this statement?

Case Statement

Dec 19, 2007

Hello, I'm attempting to use a case statement in order to select fields from a column that have names and addresses mixed. I'm wanting to select only the fields that contain names. For example some fields start with an address of "1998 Sky Rd" or PO BOX, or Suite at the beginning of the field. I would like to first select all fields with names in the field and then use an update statement to move/switch fields to another column. The only problem is that I can't seem to get this query to work. Please help!!!

Thank you!!!!!!!!!


SELECT address1, name3=address1 as expr1

Case [address1]

When mid([address1],1,1) Like [A-Z] then [address1]
When [address] is null then ""
When [address] = "" then ""
Else 'Null"
End,

FROM Exercise1;

Domestic Violence CME Required?: IIf(([Date of Next Medical License Renewal]-[Date of Last Domestic Violence Credit (2)])>("yyyy",6),"yes","no")

syntax error (comma) in query expression 'IIf(([Date of Next Medical License Renewal]-[Date of Last Domestic Violence Credit (2)])>("yyyy",6),"yes","no")'

The error seems to be in relationship to the number 6. I want a "yes" to show up in the field if the difference is greater then 6 years.

Syntax Error: Extra) In Query Expression

Oct 11, 2007

Hello I'm having trouble getting my nested Iif statement to run. Can anyone help??? I've attached a screen shot of the syntax error that I'm receiving. The example code below needs tweaking.



Update [Goodrec-copy3] set [Goodrec-copy3].shortname = Iif (Not Null([shortname]),[Goodrec-copy3].shortname Like "*,JR*" Or ([Goodrec-copy3].[shortname] Like "*, SR*" Or ([Goodrec-copy3].[shortname]) Like "*, II*" Or [Goodrec-copy3].[shortname]) Like "*, III*", InStrRev([shortname])," ",InStr([shortname]," ,")+1,50) &" "& Left([shortname],InStrRev([shortname])," ,")-1) WHERE ((([Goodrec-copy3].[ctype])="I"));

What I'm attempting to accomplish with this query is to keep the field shortname the same if not null and if it doesn't meet the criteria of having a string value of "JR", "SR", "II", or "III". If the field does have a string value of "JR", "SR", "II", or "III" reverse the string (example John Gissom JR) to reflect shortname as such for example: "Gissom JR John".

Thanks in advance!

Queries :: Syntax Error In Query Expression

Apr 15, 2014

I am creating a database to analyze prices. I have 2 tables. One table has a bunch of dates, product names and the prices. There are many of the same dates and many of the same products. I.E. a product could get priced one day and than have a different price the next day.The other table has a bunch of information and dates and product names also. The goal is to add a week to the dates in this table and use that date and product name to look up the corresponding price for that date and product and add it to the record.

I am trying to use Dlookup but evey record is then filled with the same price. I am using this Expr1: DLookUp("Price","Qry_Historic_Price","[Date]=#[End Period]# And primary_id ='[primary_id']")...When I run the query I get a message that says "Syntax error in query expression" than a message box that pops and says "Unknown" with only "ok" to click.
