Access Overflow Error Query
2004 #1 Advertisements Ken Snell [MVP] Guest Most likely it means that the size of a numeric access 2013 overflow error value that is being imported into a table is *too large* or *too small* for the field type. For example, a field that is
Ms Access Divide By Zero
set for Integer can handle values between -32,768 and 32,767. If you try to put the number 1,000,0000 into this field, the "overflow" message error will occur. -- Ken Snell Social Groups Pictures & Albums Members List Calendar Search Forums Show Threads Show Posts Tag Search Advanced Search Find All Thanked Posts Go to Page...

The result I'm shooting for is that if [Production] is zero, http://www.pcreview.co.uk/threads/what-does-overflow-message-mean-in-microsoft-access.1640979/ indicate zero, otherwise compute the percent of collection. ([PP] is the amount collected and is a negative number in the table). Pretty stumped here... Thank you!

The table doesn't have any null values so if there are no monies yet collected, it would be zero.

"Overflow" error P: n/a SheldonMopes I sometimes get a pop-up box that reads "Overflow" and the module that is executing pauses. It doesn't get https://bytes.com/topic/access/answers/472271-overflow-error caught by my error trapping, and it seems to be randow. By random, I mean usually in the same section of code, but I can run the code a few times, then it appears. I can't reproduce it when I want to, and I have no idea what is causing it. Any ideas ? Thanks By the way the code is some record manipulation of 2 recordsets. Mar 24 '06 #1 Post Reply Share this Question 3 Replies P: n/a Allen Browne ms access Overflow means that the data is too large for the data type that is trying to handle it. Open the Immediate Window (Ctrl+G), and enter: ? 200 * 200 The default number type in Access is Integer, and the largest integer is 32767. Therefore this simple calculation fails with an Overflow error. The solution is to force one of the numbers to be a Long integer, e.g.: ? CLng(200) * 200 Your calculations may therefore need typecasting to a Long, Double, or Currency, ms access 2007 using CLng(), CDbl(), or CCur(). Note that these types do not handle Null, so you usually need to use Nz() inside those expressions too, e.g.: CCur(Nz([Quantity],0)) * [PriceEach] More info: Calculated fields misinterpreted at: http://allenbrowne.com/ser-45.html -- Allen Browne - Microsoft MVP.
