Error In Query In Expression Builder...

Sep 21, 2006

I need to implement the following logic in a report column:

IF hist_mis_cds!typgess = "", then calculated field= ""
ELSE
IF hist_mis_cds!typgess <> hist_code_translation! src_code_desc
then calculated field= "X"
ELSE calculated field= ""

I have implemented the following query in Expression Builder for the calculated field:

=IIf(HIST_MIS_CDS!TYPGESS="","",IIf(HIST_MIS_CDS!T YPGESS<>HIST_CODE_TRANSLATION!SRC_CODE_DESC,"X","" ))

When I click on Form View, I get "#Name?" in the calculated field.

Any ideas? Thanks.

Convert A Text String To Integer - Check For Error In Expression Builder

Apr 24, 2013

I would like to convert a text string to integer.

Lots of posts say to use val, but it is not listed in access 2010

So I am trying,

Creating a field that is numeric then just referring to the string field.

This works good except where it finds actual text. It puts the value "#Type!" in there.

Would there be some kind of function to check for an error or check if the value is text.

Help With Expression Builder

Jan 9, 2006

When I enter a date into the [Return Text Date] field on my table and then select a value from the [Upgrade Fee] combo box followed by a selection from the [Upgrade Investment Class] combo box i want the value (or Date) in my Eligibility Date field to be amended by the given amount.

I have an expression, listed below, that i want to repeat (copy + Paste would be good) and amend the values. I have entered 2 and that seems to be all it will allow. I want to have 30 possible permutations to the fields 0 - 300 (in 50 intervals) by 5 (1,2,3,4 & 5)

The Code works below but I cant have anymore code in the expression builder

IDEAS please people.......

=IIf([Upgrade Fee]=0 And [Upgrade Investment Class]=1,[Return Text Date]+180,IIf([Upgrade Fee]=0 And [Upgrade Investment Class]=2,[Return Text Date]+150,""))IIf([Upgrade Fee]=0 And [Upgrade Investment Class]=3,[Return Text Date]+120,IIf([Upgrade Fee]=0 And [Upgrade Investment Class]=4,[Return Text Date]+90,""))

Expression/Code Builder...

Mar 24, 2008

Hi, i am making a stock control program in Access. I have designed several tables, forms and queries etc. but have come stuck at the point where i want to create a button so when i click it, it automatically changes the stock level of all the products that are low in stock, to their "target stock level".

I am confused about how to do this. I tried making a button and going into the expression builder and putting:

=[Product Stock Level]=([Product Target Stock]-[Product Stock Level])+[Product Stock Level]

This would basically change the stock level to the target stock level. But when i press the button, nothing happens.

Any help on this matter is greatly appreciated.

Thanks alot.

Expression Builder - Help Needed.

Oct 26, 2004

Im looking for a guide to teach myself how to use the expression builder.

I know how to write constraints in SQL, so with a bit of luck it will be similar. :P

A list of every command you can use might be just as good as a tutorial.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks.

Expression Builder IIF Problem.

Mar 7, 2007

Hi,

I am trying to write an expression in my query which, given a condition, it uses the following criteria:
"Carmarthenshire" Or "Ceredigion" Or "Neath Port Talbot" Or "Pembrokeshire" Or "Swansea"

So far I have come up with this:
IIf([Forms]![Main Menu]![cboRegion]="West Wales","Carmarthenshire" Or "Ceredigion" Or "Neath Port Talbot" Or "Pembrokeshire" Or "Swansea")

However the Query builder complains the expression is incorrect or too complex etc. etc...

If I simplify it to this:
IIf([Forms]![Main Menu]![cboRegion]="West Wales","Carmarthenshire")
it works fine but unfortunately this isn't what I need.

Any help much appreciated,

Matt.

Expression Builder IIF Issue

Mar 28, 2007

Hi all,

Should you write an expression the criteria field in a query and use IIF, an interesting little bug appears that I have not managed to get around. Should you want the expression to return a range as the criteria (i.e. Between ... And ... ) it can't do it because IIF tries to evaluate the range before it passes the result back to the query. I need it to actually pass the Between And to the query to use as it's criteria. It can't do this, so it passes back a null and of course the query fails to produce any meaningful result.

I need to do this as I have two date text boxes in a form so that people can search through specific dates, but in the table these date fields can be blank. (Basically it's a Date Completed field, so if the job hasn't been completed, the date is left as Null) So i need users to be able to leave both text boxes blank so that the resulting query will display the Null values as well. If they leave one blank, it auto sets itself to the a minimum/maximum date. When both boxes are blank i need to return nothing so the criteria is effectively blank or = Is Null And Is Not Null to display all records.

Example of WIP

IIf(IsNull([Forms]![frmListImgChng]![txtDateComp1])=True And IsNull([Forms]![frmListImgChng]![txtDateComp2])=True,#15/01/2007#,IIf(IsNull([Forms]![frmListImgChng]![txtDateComp1])=True,Between #01/01/2007# And #01/04/2007#,IIf(IsNull([Forms]![frmListImgChng]![txtDateComp2])=True,Between [Forms]![frmListImgChng]![txtDateComp2] And #31/12/2030#,Between [Forms]![frmListImgChng]![txtDateComp1] And [Forms]![frmListImgChng]![txtDateComp2])))

The red bits of code are test values. The first one passes back to the query as it is not a range, the second does not as it is.

Cheers,

Matt

Expression Builder Tutorial Or FAQ?

Oct 13, 2006

Now I have been working for a few months with ACCESS but one thing that keeps giving me trouble and that is the "Expression Builder". I look at the Microsoft Help and it is not good in explaining this part of ACCESS. I have Access books and they are not good with explaining this aspect of Acess. Is there anyone with a good source to point me in the direction to learning the Expression Builder better then I know now?

New Line Using Expression Builder

Feb 11, 2008

This seems so simple and it probably is, I've probably been staring at my database for too long doing too many other things but here goes:

I want to create thank you letters for a list of people. I've made my query and gotten all their info together but now I can't make a report for the letter. I can make my text box but after that nothing seems to work out right. I'm not that good with VB code so I have been using Expression Builder which follows logic statements and not real code. I can't get even the address showing in one text box with 3 lines. Once I get that far I can get the remainder of my letter created because its all the same thing but I really need some help to get beyone the address!

Thanks

Expression Builder Or Conditional Formating

May 30, 2005

Hi, can anyone help me? I'm using an access database to collect information and pull reports. One of the fields in one of the tables contains dates and time. In my query I would like to be able to state that records created after 17:00 and before 08:00 of the next day, get counted in next day reports. (i.e. Record 1 created 26.05.05 at 18:01 would show in my report as coming in on 27.05.05 at 08:00 am). Thanks,

Queries :: Using OnClick In Expression Builder?

Jan 27, 2015

I have query that filters my list in Access. The list can be filtered in different ways(like using a combobox). This is the criteria of the query for the field Title of the table Book:

Code:
Like IIf([Forms]![frmName]![cmbSearch].[OnClick];"*" & [Forms]![frmName]![txtSearchBar] & "*"; [Book]![Title])

What I want is when the cmbSearch is clicked, the list must show the Tiltes where the title of the book contains the words of the search bar. When its not clicked on that button, the list must show all the titles.

Here is the SQL of the query:

Code:
SELECT Book.ID, Book.Title FROM Book
WHERE (((Book.Title) Like IIf([Forms]![frmName]![cmbSearch].[OnClick],"*" & [Forms]![frmName]![txtSearchBar] & "*", [Book]![Title]))

The problem is the list filters whether I click on a different cmdButton or an optionButton. I dont know why [cmbSearch].[OnClick] doesnt work.

Text Box Expression Builder With Queries

Jan 9, 2012

I know how to do this in VB.NET ... I have a form with a combo box. I would like to create an "on change" event where it updates the text boxes on that same form depending on what's been selected in the combo box.

I don't know how to change the combo box's selected index so it defaults to the first item so there's no blanks/errors in my form.

So when the combobox contents is changed, I'd like a routine that updates all the text boxes kind of like this:

sub update()
TextBox = "SELECT * FROM Table_Name WHERE ID =" & Combobox.text
end sub

Aug 16, 2006

Hi. I am using Expression Builder to total 3 columns for a query.

Total: [BaseTotal]+[ClickTotal]+[Adj Total]

The [Adj Total] is sometimes empty, and when this happens, Total is empty even though there are values for [BaseTotal] & [ClickTotal]. How can I make the Total show up regardless of whether any of the three items used to calculate it are Null?

Thanks
