Currency Format

Mar 24, 2005

This is probably the easiest question to answer if you know where to look but I don't.

Working in the UK with Access 2000 I need to set the field in a table to show Dollar $ USD however the only values I have are £ GBP and € as defaults.

Now I thought that I could get this to change if I changed my regional settings but then it occurred to me that if I do that and it changes then surely it would mean that who ever used this database in our global organisation would end up with a currency shown in their own local currency. Whilst this may not seem like a problem it is if you don't realise and quote a figure to someone in your local currency.

i.e. at present the UK £ = nearly $2 USD

So if someone in the UK read the figures and it dispalyed £400,000 and quoted this to a person in the USA when in theory the figure was meant to show $400,000 it could cause all sorts of issues.

Can someone tell me the correct way of choosing $ without it affecting anything else.

Changing Currency Format On The Fly

Aug 30, 2006

Hello,

I would like to format the currency values in a query. There values will either be Euro or Pound. Is it possible to change the currency format "on the fly" in this way in a query?

I would like to have a variable currency format. For example:

If [fldCurrency] = [Euro] Then format [fldAmount] As Euro
If [fldCurrency] = [Pound] or [GBP] Then format [fldAmount] As Sterling

How does one format data as Euro?

Many thanks,

Dj_T

Format Currency Property

Aug 9, 2006

Hi

I have a field on a Form that displays values in Sterling (The Default on the machine) ie with the pound sign before the numbers.

I need to change the sign before the numbers to Dollar at a click of a button. I'm not interested in actually converting the values from Sterling to Dollar but only to change the sign. So I attached the code below to a Button's On Click Event, but I get an error = Expected.


Format([ControlName] , "$#,##.00")

Input Mask Or Format Or Other - Currency

May 17, 2006

Hi All,

My Querie:
I have a relational database, that is basically made up of a few tables, I will
simplify for this to two.
TblFieldNames and TblFieldValues

Basically using a form you can fill in a field (TblFieldNames.FieldName) and it
is then appended to TblFieldValues.FieldValue.

On the form the properties of the input text box are changed according to the
record selected in TblFieldNames.
Ie. ListBox with FieldNames from TableFieldNames
ListBox_AfterUpdate sets properties of
TxtValue

The Issue:
I have a Field in TblFieldNames that has a setting of Currency.
(TblFieldNames.FieldType = "Currency")

I have changed the TxtValue.Format = "Currency"

It doesn't:
A. Allow entry as a currency, ie. $ sign and thousand seperators
B. Append the details to the TblFieldValues Table, which it is going across to
into a field that is set as Text (this can't change)

I have tried:
Changing format of input Txt box
Changing Input Mask for inptu Txt Box
"$###,###,###" but doesn't work for me....
"/$###,###,###"
"/$###,###,###!"

I want it to allow me to enter in the Value as a Currency and append the value as a currency

ie.
Key Press = 12345
Field Shows = $12,345
Appends this value as Text?

Key Press = 1234567890
Field Shows = $1,234,567,890

Etc

Any ideas?

General :: Why Use Currency Format In Tables

Mar 31, 2014

I am just wondering if there is an advantage to using a currency field type in a table, vs. just using a number field? This is assuming that I am not working directly in the tables themselves and am using forms to display the data.

Format Textbox To Display Currency And Percentage

May 22, 2006

Hi,

I have a query with 3 fields - PaymentAmount and PaymentTotal. The third field is a percentage of the two e.g:

PaymentAmount = 10000
PaymentTotal = 12000
PaymentPercentage = 83.333333333333

In my form I would like a text box to display the two combined i.e. £10.000.00 (83.33%).
At the moment it displays 10000 83.3333333333333. I can use £#,##0.00 to format the current half, but how can I then format the percentage to display 83.33%?

Thanks

Input Mask /format For Unbound Textbox - Currency

Dec 7, 2007

How do I apply this - can't seem to get it right - just want to control user into putting whatever and two deciimals for pence.

99.99 input mask is halfway there - except I don't want to limit the pounds amount. putting 99999.99 makes entering 12.31 etc a little awkward.

Cheers

Forms :: Assign Field With Special Format Based On Date / Time Format

Feb 17, 2014

I wanted to assign the field "Number of magazine" with special format based on date/time format but showing only year and month in the format: "yyyy-mm".

So in property of this field in format I put yyyy-mm and in input mask I type 0000-00;;-

I also created the form based on the table containing above field and I defined format and input mask for corresponding formant in the same way like at the table.

But if I try to type date for example 2014-01 in text box of the form it comes up with the full date 2014-01-01. Why does it do like this? What do I do incorrectly?

Forms :: Date Format To Fiscal Week Format

Jul 30, 2013

I have a list of dates in the mm/dd/yyyy format and I am looking to get it into the fiscal format of yyyyww. I am able to do this with the datepart and format functions, but I need to make it so that the fiscal month begins in January but the first week starts if there are three or more days in the week. For instance if Jan 1st is a Friday then this stands as the first fiscal week, if it is a Saturday then it does not count as the first week.

datepart and format functions have the Use the first week in the year that has at least 4 days for the firstweekofyear option but I need it where it has at least three to make it work.

Rounding Currency

Jan 19, 2005

Hoping someone can help. I have looked for an answer and can't quite grasp what I need to do. I am using Access 2000.

Basically, I have a quote form that adds together all job related services and totals them using a currency field. Sales would like to have the option of quoting the job two decimal places or going out to three. So, I need to round to the two different cost options. I can't figure out how to do this. So, my question is:

1) Am I using the correct data type?
2) If currency is most appropriate, how do I show results such as:
$12.327 and $12.33.

If I only change decimal property (therefore, the display) for the fields, the form shows: 12.33 and 12.330. Have tried using the Round function different data types and not having any luck.

Hope this makes some sense. Thanks!

Currency Querys???

Dec 7, 2005

Hello All,

I'm only fairly basic when it comes to Access, and I need some help with a query. Im running Access 2003 on XP Pro, and my current database is in a one to many relationship with Staff and Activities. A part of the Activites field involves the expenses of that particular activity. I have a field in my Activities table saying total expenses. The expense formats are in currency (including total). When I go to make a query, I'm using the following critera for the TotalExpenses field. "FoodExpenses"+"OtherExpenses". However, when I go to run the query, it tells me that there is a data type mismatch in the criteron expression. I changed the field formats to text and it will run. Can access 2003 support currency based querys and if so how? It would be really handy to know.

Selecting Different Currency

May 1, 2006

Hi to everyone. I have this form that my let's say clients should fill in. In one drop down list I need the client to be able to choose different currency i.e. euros or pounds or dollars. But I need the symbol to appear in the list and since the field is currency type I can't use the lookup wizard to decide what values should appear in that list.

How is this possible? Should I make an extra field of text type to choose the currency and on another field of number type to place the value I need or is there another way?

Hope I am cleaar enough...

Kyriakos
