Access #num Error
takes a minute: Sign up iif (Iserror ()) function still returning #error up vote 5 down vote favorite I have the following function that creates a column in my query: MTD: IIf(IsError(FormatNumber([62xx]![F40])),0,FormatNumber([62xx]![F40])) This is linked to an Excel file and where #func access error people put numbers and text in the same column (F40 in this example). I need to know if the thing I am looking at is a number or text. If it's text I want a zero, if it is a number I want the number. I know that when I use FormatNumber([C107_62xx]![F40]) on a text line I get an error. I would assume when I get an error, then my iif formula above would convert that to a zero and the replace #error with 0 in access world would rejoice. For some reason I am still getting a #error even with my iif statement. What am I doing wrong? I have also tried using the IsNumeric function but I still get #NUM! errors that come through. function ms-access ms-access-2010 share|improve this question edited Mar 26 '14 at 19:16 HansUp 79.3k114371 asked Mar 26 '14 at 18:49 Nigel 2041211 add a comment| 1 Answer 1 active oldest votes up vote 5 down vote accepted IsError does not do what you think it does. From the help topic, it "Returns a Boolean value indicating whether an expression is an error value." Not whether the expression triggers an error, but whether the expression is an error value. Sorry, that explanation was probably not clear enough, but I don't know how to do better. So I'll just suggest you consider this IsNumeric() expression for what you want here. IIf(IsNumeric([62xx]![F40]), FormatNumber([62xx]![F40]), 0) Here is that same expression in a query with the output below. SELECT [62xx].F40, IIf(IsNumeric([62xx]![F40]), FormatNumber([62xx]![F40]), 0) AS MTD FROM [62xx]; F40 MTD ----- ---- foo 0 1 1.00 2.345 2.35 bar 0 share|improve this answer edited Mar 26 '14 at 19:27 answered Mar 26 '14 at 19:15 HansUp 79.3k114371 I don't understand why IsError doesn't do what I think it does, but I did try your suggestion. IsNumeric isn't being very reliable for some reason. I don't like pulling data from spreadsheets where peple do crazy stuff. Thi

Remarks Error values are created by converting real numbers to error values using the CVErr function. The IsError function is used to determine if a numeric expression represents an error. IsError returns True if the expression argument indicates an error; otherwise, it returns False. Example Note: Examples that follow demonstrate the https://support.office.com/en-us/article/IsError-Function-40a89200-138b-4e60-b254-34aea51b2e6b use of this function in a Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) module. For more information about working with VBA, select Developer Reference in the drop-down list next to Search and enter one or more terms in the search box. This example uses the IsError function to check if a numeric expression is an error value. The CVErr function is used to return an Error Variant from a user-defined function. Assume UserFunction is a user-defined function procedure that returns an error value; for example, a return value assigned with the statement UserFunction = CVErr(32767), where 32767 is a user-defined number.

But a properly used Nz() function can ms access turn an error message into an understandable and expected value. By Susan Harkins | in Microsoft Office, February 6, 2009, 2:14 AM PST RSS Comments Facebook Linkedin Twitter More Email Print Reddit Delicious Digg Pinterest Stumbleupon Google Plus Missing values can confuse users if handled incorrectly. For instance, a calculated control in a form or report has the potential to return #Error if a value is missing. That's going to leave your users ms access if scratching their heads and reaching for the phone to ask what's up. You can avoid their confusion (and your interruption) by using the Nz() function to force a value — usually 0. This function's syntax is simple: Nz(expression, replacementvalue) where expression is the field or value being evaluated and replacementvalue is the value or text you want to display, or pass, when there's no value. (You can learn more about Nz() in Help.) I've found that applying Nz() correctly can be a bit of a puzzle for some folks. The key is to wrap every field or value in an Nz() function, not the entire expression. For instance, the following expression has the potential to return #Error, despite the Nz() function: =Nz(Sum(Price * Quantity, 0)) The correct syntax follows: =Sum(Nz(Price, 0) * Nz(Quantity, 0)) Wrap each field within the expression to catch each missing value before the SUM() function tries to evaluate it. Of course, the best solution is to prevent missing values in the first place. To do so at the table level, set the field's Required property to Yes. However, doing so isn't always appropriate or practical. That's when the Nz() function comes in handy — as long as you apply it correctly.

IFERROR Function (DAX) Other Versions SQL Server 2012 SQL Server 2008 R2 Evaluates an expression and returns a specified value if the expression returns an error; otherwise returns the value of the expression itself.Syntax Copy IFERROR(value, value_if_error) ParametersTermDefinitionvalueAny value or expression.value_if_errorAny value or expression.Return ValueA scalar of the same type as valueRemarksYou can use the IFERROR function to trap and handle errors in an expression.If value or value_if_error is an empty cell, IFERROR treats it as an empty string value ("").The IFERROR function is based on the IF function, and uses the same error messages, but has fewer arguments. The relationship between the IFERROR function and the IF function as follows:IFERROR(A,B) := IF(ISERROR(A), B, A)Note that the values that are returned for A and B must be of the same data type; therefore, the column or expression used for value and the value returned for value_if_error must be the same data type.ExampleThe following example returns 9999 if the expression 25/0 evaluates to an error. If the expression returns a value other than error, that value is passed to the invoking expression.
