of Use Forms: #Error when the Subform has no records Author(s) Keri Hardwick Here are some facts about #ERROR returned when a subform has no records:In these access #error query examples, [Subf field] refers to a syntactically correctreference to a subform #error in access form field from a main form. 1.

will evaluate to an error on the main form, but not when passeto a global module: IsError([Subf field]) on the main form evaluates to true IsAnError([Subf field]) returns
Ms Access #error
false, where this function exists in a global module: Function IsAnError(testvalue as variant) as Boolean IsAnError = IsError(testvalue) End Function 3. It will not evaluate to numeric. IsNumeric([subf field]) evaluates to false. I have found this to be the best test, since often it is a total or other number being passed back to the main form. ms access if error then 0 If not, there is usually some numeric field on the sub that can be tested whether or not it is the field used on the main form. This test indicates when there are records, IsNumeric will be true; when there are no records, IsNumeric will be false. So, you can catch "no records" and display what you want instead of #ERROR. This function returns zero instead of #ERROR when used like this:nnz([Subf field]) on the main form. I use it from a global module.

I have a form showing calculated field from subform. When subform has any records to display, the calculated field works alright. But it gets #Error when subform has no records. The subform's records are from result of query so that it is read https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/20385975/Getting-Error-in-calcurated-field-when-subform-has-no-data.html only and does not show even (Autonumber) line when there are no records to display.

If you are performing division, for example, and the divisor is null or 0 then the math fails and you get an error. In an event such as that, putting some zero or null checking code into your macro prior to calculating the result is the way to go. I imagine that's not your situation, however.

I have a query behind a subform that has a sql statement like this: SELECT ClientTotalInvoiceLineItems.*, CDate(GetWeekEnding([WeekEnding1],[WeekEnding2],[WeekEnding3],[WeekEnding4],[WeekEnding5],[WeekEnding6])) AS WeekEnding, CapturedInvoices.EnteredInvoiceNo, IIf([forms]![frmClientTotalInvoices]![frmClientTotalInvoicesSub].[Form].[NewRecord]=True,0,Ccur([ContractingFeesSubtotal])) AS Subtotal, CCur([GSTAmount]) AS GST, CCur([TotalDue]) AS Total, IIf(IsNull([ctlCreated]),'',[ctlCreated] & ' by ' & [ctlCreatedBy]) AS Added FROM ClientTotalInvoiceLineItems INNER JOIN CapturedInvoices ON ClientTotalInvoiceLineItems.ctlSourceID = CapturedInvoices.CapturedInvoicedID ORDER BY CDate(GetWeekEnding([WeekEnding1],[WeekEnding2],[WeekEnding3],[WeekEnding4],[WeekEnding5],[WeekEnding6])) DESC; When the form is on a new record I get #error in the fields error in access starting with ccur. So as you can see I tried to put a Form.NewRecord expression on field to test it but now MSAccess crashes when I try view in form view. How can I get rid of those #error in the fields on a new record of a subform??

Which confuses my users? OF course those ccur fields are display only not data enter fields. –Malcolm Feb 27 '12 at 3:14 add a comment| up vote 0 down vote I know one possible error is that you haven't correctly nested the forms; The main "container" form that it's on needs to be included in the statement like [forms]![frmClientTotalInvoices]![frmClientTotalInvoicesSub].[Form].[NewRecord] I'm assuming that frmC

P: 45 JayF Hi all, I'm stumped and it hurts to have to give up and ask for help, but even the omniscient Google limited by my mere biology can't solve this, and I'm still learning Access so here goes. I have a main form containing a subform, which lists products within an order, in the footer of which is a text box called sfrmTotal whose control source contains the expression: =Sum(Nz([SubTotal],0)) Back on the main form I have a text box with control source: =[sfrmcOrderDetails].[Form]![sfrmTotal] The subform also contains fields such as Discount, Tax, Quantity, etc. I have tried the above Sum() expression on all of the fields and every single one of them returns #Error on both the subform control and the main form one. [Total] and [SubTotal] are calculated query fields, but [Quantity] and [Discount] are not. Should that even make a difference? I have tried a function called nnz (not numeric zero), which makes no difference. I was tweaking queries, checking names and messing with things for the best part of yesterday. I've learned a lot on the way, but I'm no closer to figuring out what is causing the #Error on ALL of the fields. My last resort is to appeal to the Gurus of Bytes.com for divine assistance or at least guide me in the right direction of where I should be looking for a solution to banish the #Errors from my project. Thanks in advance. Jay Feb 11 '12 #1 Post Reply ✓ answered by ADezii Puzzling situation, JayF. Set the Control Source of the sfrmTotal Text Box in the Sub-Form Footer to: Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers =DSum("[Quantity]","eqryPODetailsExtended","[PurchaseID]="&[Forms]![dfrmPODetails]![sfrmcOrderDetails].[Form]![PurchaseID]) Share this Question 13 Replies Expert 5K+ P: 8,395 ADez
