Hello,
I am completely new to Access, so thanks to anyone who does not think my questions are dumb :)
Ok, say for example I have a table that has my income information and my tax rate and I want to compute the income tax I need to pay by simply modifying total income with tax rate, how should I do it? there does not seem to be a function like formular bar in Excel in Access.
Recently I have started working for one of the company where I have to deal with one of the access file. this file has lots of tables containing many fields.
My question is
How can I get all the tables name, their fields and attributes in Microsoft Word file. I have tried opening table > design view and copy text but it doesn't work. also tries coping table and paste in in word file but it takes ages
How do you find the maximum of four fields in each record of a query. Say (for example) you have daily records of the rainfall across four cities, where the cities are the fields in the query. how do you write an extra calculated field to the query that shows the max. rainfall across the fields on a paticular day.
A few years back I saw a program which helped with database changes. I want to change names of fields and tables, queries etc. in a rather complex database. Does anybody know where I can get this tool or program to run through the database and change it in all corners and crevices on a search and replace basis?

Ok so I'm kinda new to access. What i want to happen is for there to be a textbox on a form that changes depending on what is in the other text boxes. Eg 1st box = 1, 2nd box = 2. I want the third box to equal the ammount of the first two added together (textbox1 + textbox2 = textbox3) how do i do it? Where do i put the formula. Thanks.
Hi I have a forrm (Orders) , with a subform (Order Details)
Depending on a selection of a list field it makes certain field visible in the subform.
If I go the next record and select the list field it updates fields in the subform ( Visible ( True or False )
But if I go back to the previousl record it doesnt update the fields that are relavent to the option picked in the List Filed ( Which I have set to after update ). It works fine if I re-select the option in the list field
How do I set it to update the subform field automatically as I scroll through records?
I tried OnCurrent property but I dont think this is the correct one.
I was wondering if I could be able to use the average formula on calls in forms. I have begin date, end date, agent name, and I would want to take the difference between those dates and returns the average of calls. I was successfully able to return the difference dates, but I can't get the average calls to work. Here is what I use for the average formula:
=IIf([End Date]>[Date],DateDiff("d",[Date],[End Date])=Sum([Average wrap]),0). I put this formula inside TEXTBOX inside the form.
I have developed an Access database which keeps track of items we have received. What I want to do is enter a date in a field and then by clicking a button that date and the name of the item gets enetered into my Outlook calendar so that it will pop up a reminder on that date. I have no idea if/how this can be done. Any ideas or examples very much appreciated.
I have a form that has 3 fields each representing a different table. I want the sum of 2 of the fields to update the third field. The third table has an existing value in it, but I need it to change when the formula is executed. I have a formula embedded in the form and can make the formula work, but it doesn't update my table. How can I make it do this? :confused:
Hi All:running Access 2000.I have a qry with a formula field that performs some calculation (Extension: CCur(([OnHand]*[Price])/[UnitsPer]))and it works fine. How can I update the actual table with the result of the calculation for every record? The problem I have is that there's some null values in the results therefore when I try to get totals on that field, it errors out saying "invalid null use"thanks
I have 5 fields(First,Second,Third,Sum,Sum1). The Sum field is the sum of the first, second and third. In excel I am using the following formula/expression to calculate the Sum1 field =IF(E1<0,E1+10,E1+0 - and it brings back single digit. e.g. First=3, Second=5, Third=8, Sum=16, Sum=6 Can I do this in an Access query, if so how?
I put the formula in the Text box field in the control source in the property's tool box and i don't know if it will save that calculation to the table. I was wondering if i can do VBA code to save the the calculation in the table.I have a field called CA Weigt and i put the formula in there as =[Weight] * 0.4536 and it works. How would i put it in a vba code.
Really need help on this one, here is an excel expression:
X Multipliers $ ValueMultiplier
is less than5then *3.8 is less than50*3.2 is less than100*2.8 is less than200*2.4 is less than500*2 is greater than500*1.8
so if price is less then 5 then multiply by 3.8 and so on. In excel it's in a separate worksheet, and other worksheets linked to it and adjust their Sale Price from the Cost column. Someone else created this spreadsheet, and i couldn't find a multiple discount help in access. I tried creating a query =([PriceBook_OLD].[Cost]<=5)*3.8 Or ([PriceBook_OLD].[Cost]<=50)*3.2 Or ([PriceBook_OLD].[Cost]<=100)*2.8 Or ([PriceBook_OLD].[Cost]<=200)*2.4 Or ([PriceBook_OLD].[Cost]<=500)*2 Or ([PriceBook_OLD].[Cost]>500)*1.8 but it doesn't work. Please help!!!! Thank you very much
date formula that I was using in access 2007 doesn't seem to be working in 2010.
The formula that I had was
Between DateSerial(Year(Date())-IIf(Month(Date())<4,1,0),4,1) And DateSerial(Year(Date())+IIf(Month(Date())>3,1,0),3 ,31).
The calculation allowed me to count holiday hours taken between 1st April and 31st March. The problem is that it was working up till 31st march but is not now showing holidays taken since 1st April.
I have above table in access. I want to use this table in query to find value of any product using a formula (Value A*X)+Value B. The product and X query picks up from another table. The same can be done easily in Excel using Index, Match formula but how in Access.
I am calculating the check digit for a 13 digit number in Excel and I need to be able to do it in Access.
My Excel formula; =1&E1&MOD(-SUM(MID(1&E1&0,{1,3,5,7,9,11,13;2,4,6,8,10,12,14}, 1)*{3;1}),10) -- cell E1 holds the base 12 digit number. My attempt to convert to Access; =1 & [txtBase] & [-SUM(MID("1" & [txtBase] &0,{1,3,5,7,9,11,13;2,4,6,8,10,12,14},1)*{3;1}) mod 10] -- txtBase holds the base 12 digit number
I am pretty new to access and trying to create a form to enter data into a table. I keep getting a syntax error. Below is the part of code where I keep getting the syntax.
I have a simple data entry form where I can key the "row", "COLUMN", SPACE "a" and space "B" onto an access 2010 table. Is there a way that if I key the same four fields, e.g., A5AB that I get a message back before updating telling me that combination already exists?
I do generate a calculated data field, which in this case would be "a5ab" and which is displayed on report screens. Could the value of this calculated field be stored on the Table and be used to prevent the same value from again be entered on the Table?
I'm new to this. I'm trying to enter data (it's actually Latitude and Longitude co-ordinates) from an existing Excel source into an Access database which has input masks of 00°00'00.00"L;0;0 (Latitude) and 000°00'00.00"L;0;0 (Longitude) in the respective fields. However I cannot get the information to import or display correctly. I did an "export data" of the respective table (hence fields) to Excel to try and get the correct entry format. An example of the Lat exported was 24°49'41.81"N and Long was 067°01'44.02"E (but with a very small ' in front but only visible in the data entry line in Excel, not in the actual spreadsheet table???)
However when I try to enter the data (even using the exact same little degree symbol, apostrophe, and quotation marks) it does not enter the access fields correctly. On closer scrutiny of the exported Excel format I note a small ' at the very beginning of the 24°49'41.81"N or 067°01'44.02"E string. But as I said previously only visible in the data entry line next to the formula button. Not on the spreadsheet cell.
However even when I "Paste Special" "values only" my new co-ordinates into the same entry location as one exported, it will still not import, or display correctly. If I go into the Access database directly there is a form where if I need to enter the new co-ordinates (using lat example above) I only have to enter 24 49 41 81 N (spaces between) and it will show correctly as 24°49'41.81"N
I'm getting desparate as I don't want to have to change all the details manually. Anyone know what my correct format from an Excel spreadsheet should be?
Apologies for lengthy story! Difficult to describe problem with degree symbols etc
