Modules & VBA :: Switch Function - A Null Makes Whole Column Null

Nov 16, 2014

I do not understand what is happening here. I have foll0wing line in a calculated query field:

m: Switch([EmpID]<5,1) ' run Query 18 in attached example, A2007/2010

this produces 1 for all EmpID<5 and Null for all other EmpID's. All as expected.

But if I do this:

m: Switch([EmpID]<5,1,[EmpID]>=5,Null) ' run Query 19 in attached example

then the entire column is set to Null

Modules & VBA :: Invalid Use Of Null With No (obvious) Null Values

Jul 5, 2013

It might be an easy one but I just wasted the past hour deciphering through my code in order to solve the run-time error '94' that I'm getting when trying to execute the following code:

Code:
Private Sub cmdUpdateDates_Click()
'###################################
'This sub aims at combining the timesheet date and the start and end time into the fields [Start Time] and [End Time].
'###################################
Dim intCounter As Integer
intCounter = 0
Dim rs As ADODB.Recordset

[Code] ....

Modules & VBA :: Function To Find Null Values For Each Form

Apr 10, 2015

I have a form with couple of textboxes bound to a table. When the user opens the form to enter records, i want to write a function that would go through the textboxes to check whether the textboxes are left NULL. Now i can write code on button click for each form, but i was wondering if its possible to write a function that could be called for each form that i have to check for null values.

Modules & VBA :: Error (Invalid Use Of Null) In A Function Called From A Form Current Event

Nov 18, 2013

I am struggling trying to execute a function inside a Form_current event to display some stats.

The Function is this:

Code:
Function FlightsByAircraft(Aircraft As Long) As Long
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
Dim dbs As DAO.Database
Dim str As String
str = "SELECT * FROM tblFlights WHERE AircraftID = " & Aircraft

[Code] ....

The code for the Form_Current event is this:

Private Sub Form_Current()
txtStats1 = FlightsByAircraft(Me.AircraftID)

Very simple. Well, the problem is when I move to a new record, a error message comes up: "Run-time error '94' - Invalid use of Null". It is because the AircraftID is not populated at that time. I tried to insert in the function code something like that:

Code:
If IsNull(Aircraft) then
exit function
else
.... (the DAO.Recordset code)

but it doesn't work.

How To Filter On A Column That Sometimes Is Null?

Aug 14, 2006

Hi!

I want to be able to filter a form based on a dropdown box, where one of the items can be null. (The field is of type short date).

the dropdown box is named "Fltr1".

The form is based on a query, and i have tried to express the filter in the query like this (sql syntax):

([Tablename].[Columnname]) Like "*" & [Forms]![frmMyForm]![Fltr1])

But this way, the records with this column being null are omitted...

I very much appreciate any help that leads me in the right direction ;)

thanks

Last Non Null Record In Column

Oct 14, 2015

Okay so I have a column called 'totalincome' on TblCashflow. There are 60 records of TotalIncome (represents 5 years or 60 months) per asset that I have on another table, TblLoanGeneral.

What I need to return is the LAST value from totalincome that is not null. For example, we may only have entries in the 60 records that go to row #35, or 50 or whatever. When I use the Last criteria it gives me the 60th record (in example would give me a 0), and when I use the Max criteria, it gives me the largest income value regardless of location(would be 50,000 in example). What I need is really where the "last" income amt is >1 (20) however, when you set last, it only considers row 60.In the example below I would want 20 to be returned.

ID
Row#
TotalIncome

1
1
1000

1
2
2500

1
3
50000

1
4
20

1
5
0

6

7

Function Call From Qry - What If Null???

Dec 1, 2005

Hi all!

I have a query that returns some fields with "#Error" ...

The reason is that I call a function in the query, and the function chokes if there are no matches in my query criteria and therefore no argument is sent to the function.

I tried putting this in the function:
var = Iif(IsNull(var) = True, 0, var)
-but I still get "#Error" when there are no matching records.

I presume this is because not even Null is given to the function as an arg.
Should I make the arg optional or how can I solve this??

Thanks :)

Queries :: Pull From A Second Column If The First Is Null

Aug 6, 2013

I have 1 query that connects 4 of my tables through a tracking number. I am trying to make it so the value (DStatus) from DTable will populate where a (DStatus) is provided, but where there is no (DStatus) the column is filled in with a (SStatus) from STable. There is always a SStatus for each tracking number, but not always a DStatus, where there is a DStatus, it is more accurate.

Can I do this all in 1 query, whether I have to make a new column within my query for this to work, whether I need to have my query output into a table first.

Is there something I could type into the Criteria field of my query.

I have tried using Nz([DStatus],[SStatus]), an Iif Statement, the IsNull function, etc with no avail.

Forms :: Populating Null Field In Form From A Different Column In Same Table

Sep 15, 2013

I've been trying to populate a field in a form with information, but only if the field is blank.

What I am trying to do is this.

I have a continuous form displaying all of our principals, however when our principals are on leave I want to populate the field with the "acting principal". I have set it up so the field grabs the acting principal first but it is blank for several schools. For these schools where there there is no "acting principal" I want it to grab the substantive principal automatically and populate the field.

I have tried Is Null, Is Not Null, NZ, IF, Where and Then statements but to no avail.

Queries :: If Function And Inserting Null Values In False Part

Oct 7, 2013

I have a calculated field (Bhours) with the following IIf function:

=IIf(Fields!BDate.Value<=Parameters!Pdate.Value and Fields!EDate.Value>Parameters!Pdate.Value,Fields!H ours.Value,0)

It works perfectly, but I don't like the fact that it has a zero for the false part as I like the field to the blanc instead of filled with a zero.I can't use a space as I need to calculate with this field later on. I tried using "", but then the field displays #error".

How To Handle Null Fields Requiring Numeric And Text Function Simultaaneously

Jan 8, 2007

Hi friends,

I am new to this forum, and I am facing a problem while learning MS-Access.

I am preparing a database that stores the marks obtained by students in a particular paper in addition to their particulars in tables.
A query is then generated to canculate the aggregate marks and result (Pass/Fail) for the student. It is then presented in a report fomatted as a marksheet, as well as one tabulation chart.

The database is very crude in format, but I am happy with it since I do not know programming at all, and still I could make it.
I have used in built menu of "ms-access" and mouse clicks only for generating query. It was a learn by doing method.

The problem is that my marksheets require absent students to be marked as "ABSENT" or something of that kind. If I convert my Null values to :

Expr2: IIf(IsNull([E_1]),"ABSENT",[E_1])

It shows ABSENT for null value, but refuses to make column total for E_1; On the other hand if I do not enter such expression, it makes column total in tabulation report, but fails to mark "ABSENT" to those who did not appear. So I have to lose one thing to gain another, while I need both.

Can anybody help me at this?

Field Criteria: Is Null; There Are Null Values In That Field; No Records Are Returned

Nov 16, 2007

I think the title pretty much sums it up....

I have a query where data is first sorted by user input; first field's criteria: [fieldname], then by another field's criteria: Is Null.

I know there are records containing null values in the second field, as I have run a select query with the criteria: Like "*", to make sure they are null, and not zero-length-strings.

The query is refusing to return any results...

Any ideas?

Modules & VBA :: SQL Null Dates

Apr 30, 2015

I'd like to put a WHERE clause where I confont the date in an unbound textbox with the date in the table. In vba I control the null case of the unbound textbox, but I'm not sure how to control the null value in the sql code.here is the code "strDataRiferiment" that I later insert in a concatenated SQL code. The rest of the code works, while this line doesn't. The problem are the null date records present in the table COMMESSE.What I'd like is a WHERE clause that:

- returns records with all null date values and
- returns records with not null values where these dates are < date chosen in the unbound textbox

Code:

Select Case Nz(Me.InizioDataRif.Value, "Null") 'the unbound textbox
Case "Null"
strDataRiferimento = "AND (([if is not null] COMMESSE.DataChiusura =< #" & Format(Me.FineDataRif, "mm/dd/yyyy") & "#) OR (COMMESSE.DataChiusura IS NULL)) "
Case 'etc
'etc..
end select

I tried for example:

Code:
"AND ( IFF ((COMMESSE.DataChiusura,0) IS NOT NULL,
(COMMESSE.DataChiusura,0) =< #" & Format(Me.FineDataRif, "mm/dd/yyyy") & "#) , (COMMESSE.DataChiusura) IS NULL) )) "

Modules & VBA :: Setting Variable To Null When It Has A Value?

Jan 21, 2015

I have the following simple variable assignment...

Dim PolRef As String
Let PolRef = Me.Policy_Ref_Num

But when I run my code I get "Invalid Use of Null" and PolRef is set to ""

This field is populated however, so I'm confused to why I cant set my variable to it.

If I don't use a variable and simply have let XXX = me.Me.Policy_Ref_Num then it still wont return the value from the field.

Modules & VBA :: Testing Combo Box Null Value

Sep 22, 2013

Windows vista
Access 2007

I can't seem to figure out how to test a combo box null value.I try:

Code:
If IsNull(Me.cboManufacturer) Then
MsgBox ("Please select category")
Else
DoCmd.OpenReport "rptItemCategory", acViewPreview
End If

This works if the combo box IS NOT NULL, but if null it gives me:

PHP Code:

Run-time error '3071': This expression is typed incorrectly, or it is too complex to be evaluated. 
For example, a numeric expression may contain too many complicated elements. 
Try simplifying the expression by assigning parts of the expression to variables. 

I then tried:

Code:
If IsNull(Me.cboManufacturer.Column(0)) Then
MsgBox ("Please select category")
Else
DoCmd.OpenReport "rptItemCategory", acViewPreview
End If

This works if the combo box IS NULL but if i've made a selection, it still gives me the message box as if I've selected nothing....

Modules & VBA :: How To Get Null And ISNULL Combine

Jul 28, 2015

I am using a frame on form to get report. Below is the code used to filter report.

Select Case Me.fraReportType.Value
Case 1
strReportType = "Like '*'"
Case 2
strReportType = " Is Null"
Case 3
strReportType = " Is Not Null"
End Select

The second and Third case is working fine. While the first condition is not working. This filter is on date field. There are three possibilities:

1. If we need all data
2. If we need is null data
3. If we need is not null data

How I can get the first condition using my code mentioned above.
