    automatic updates for Null records

    Hi all, I have 100+ students that can come at any time during the week and turn in a report. I then enter their mark in my Access DB. However, some of the students don't show at all. I can find out who they are by querying from a master list with 'null' in the report field, but I would like...

    Formatting Calculated currency fields

    I am drawing a blank. I have a calculated field in a report giving a currency readout (2 decimals). However, there are more then two decimals when it calculates it. I forgot where to go in the table or the query to require that the raw data is also two digits only. I.E. I have the amount $23.15...

    Using 'X' as a mark instead of check on a pre-printed sheet

    I have a report that goes on a pre printed sheet where several boxes need to be marked. Unfortunately, the option group is not good because I need specifically 'X' in the box instead of the check. Does anyone know of a substitute method to use? Thank you David

    Printing records in a report only if value is positive

    I have a report where if the value of salary is >0, I want it printed on check paper, and if value = 0 I want it printed on regular paper. I have 70 records in the report, with one page per record. Where do I specify the batch request and can I request both at once? Thank you

    NZ function working with some fields and not others

    In the detail segment of a report, I am using the NZ function to generate 0 when the field is actually null. Lo and behold, I am getting some results as #errors while other display correctly...duh! My assumption is to create the text box and write =NZ([fieldname]). Am I missing something? Thank...

    Basic but needed answer

    Good day all, Would anyone tell me why, in a report, when a text box has a control source and a name, I can sum the controlsource and not the name? If the control source in the table is called TOTAL and I give it the name txtTotal, why can't I get another unboud textbox to be =sum('txttotal')...

    Can Calculated fields become fields in other tables

    I have a total (it sums a few records) at the bottom of a report. I want this number to become a value in a table that I would call Invoices to be paid. That way I could make a check box next to it and cross reference it. This is obvious in excel. I am new to Access, and I don't see how this...
