Error on iif query in MS Access up vote 1 down vote favorite Below is my sql query: IIf(remedy_src.Position Is Null,(mid(remedy_src.User,instr(1,remedy_src.User,"(")+1,instr(1,remedy_src.User,")")-2-instr(1,remedy_src.User,"(")+1)),remedy_src.Position) AS [Adjusted User] The point is to extract string from a field. Here's an example of the value: n123456 (name lastname) the
#func Access Error
IIf function returns what is in the brackets: name lastname But. Sometimes the source value looks like that: n123456 No brackets, and the IIf returns the ugly #Func! error which prevents the query to be refreshed in my excel file (external data connection to access db). I would like to handle this error somehow. Preferably to make the IIf function return raw source value if error is present. sql ms-access share|improve this question edited Jul 10 '15 at 15:16 Newd 2,01111028 asked Jul 9 '15 at 9:47 Adrian Chrostowski 55113 add a comment| 3 Answers 3 active oldest votes up vote 1 down vote You could try to catch the error: IIF(IsERROR(IIf(remedy_src.Position Is Null,(mid(remedy_src.User,instr(1,remedy_src.User,"(")+1,instr(1,remedy_src.User,")")-2-instr(1,remedy_src.User,"(")+1)),remedy_src.Position)), remedy_src.user, IIf(remedy_src.Position Is Null,(mid(remedy_src.User,instr(1,remedy_src.User,"(")+1,instr(1,remedy_src.User,")")-2-instr(1,remedy_src.User,"(")+1)),remedy_src.Position)) AS [Adjusted User] or IIF(InStr("(",remedy_src.user)=0, remedy_src.user, IIF(IsERROR(IIf(remedy_src.Position Is Null,(mid(remedy_src.User,instr(1,remedy_src.User,"(")+1,instr(1,remedy_src.User,")")-2-instr(1,remedy_src.User,"(")+1)),remedy_src.Position)) As [Adjusted User] share|improve this answer edited Jul 9 '15 at 12:46 answered Jul 9 '15 at 10:40 Gene 27229 nope.

Cverr Access
a query producing a large number of records, calculating number manufactured and number sold of each product in inventory. This is based on number of boxes/products/sheets. Some items have not been moved http://stackoverflow.com/questions/31313926/func-error-on-iif-query-in-ms-access in the month so have no record to pull through to this query so the result produces an #Error result as opposed to a blank or a negative. In Excel, I'd normally use an IFERROR formula to deal with this, but cannot find a reasonable equivalent of this in Access. The format would be something along the lines of '=iferror(x*y,"")' I have 'x*y', no worries http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=217455 Any help on a generic formula equivalent would be greatly appreciated, preferably in its most simple form - I know there are several noobs like me out there looking for an easy way around this omission.

In any event, they managed to get by with this omission up til 2003, by using an if() wrapped around an IsErr(). The only difference in Access is you wrap the if() around an IsError(), so: If(IsError(x*y),

But a properly used Nz() function can turn an error message into an understandable and expected value. By Susan Harkins | in Microsoft Office, February 6, 2009, ms access query 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 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
