Access #error In Textbox
Sign up SUM() on a form footer resulting in #Error up vote 1 down vote favorite I'm trying to display the sum of a field in a text box in the form footer. The field is not calculated in any way. Here are a couple of the things I've tried: =Sum([txtWeldInches]) =Sum([WeldInches]) =Sum(CDbl([txtWeldInches])) =Sum(CDbl([WeldInches])) ...well you get the idea. Each iteration I've ms access report sum calculated field used results in the Text Box displaying #Error Without exception. I've used similar constructs in different forms in the same project, so I'm not sure what the problem might be. Has anyone run into this before? EDIT: I ended up writing a VBA routine to update the boxes when it was likely that they would be changed rather than trying to get a bound sum() function to work. ms-access ms-access-2007 share|improve this question edited Sep 3 '09 at 18:59 asked Sep 2 '09 at 18:25 Rister 391310 add a comment| 4 Answers 4 active oldest votes up vote 2 down vote accepted Is the field "WeldInches" existing in the data source for this form? What datatype the field "WeldInches" is? EDIT: I have looked at all your comments. If it doesn't work by databinding, try and use the unbounded way. At runtime, get the value of WeldInches using DSUM and set the footer textbox's value when the form loads. Also, remember to update it at places where you think the SUM could change. share|improve this answer edited Sep 3 '09 at 16:18 answered Sep 2

Ms Access #error
8 Thanks: 0 Thanked 0 Times in 0 Posts Sum Total #error in continuous sub-form footer Hi Everyone, I am not an IT guy, I have designed an access database for http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1369364/sum-on-a-form-footer-resulting-in-error inventory and sales details for some analysis and reporting. I have a subform within a form, but the problem is that when I want to calculate the sum total of all values for the rows/ records for the subform in the subform footer, it gives an #error message in the those unbound textboxes. I have three columns to be summed up, viz., Units, http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=200461 BankedAmt & OtherAmt (through debit/ credit cards) which are bound forms. The number of records in one single entry (main form) could run into three figures (for subform). I have two more columns after these three columns for TotalAmt (Banked Amt – Other Amt) and CostperUnit (TotalAmt / Units), the results of which are displayed correctly on each record in subform. However, the problem is that I cannot sum total all the units/ BankedAmt and OtherAmt in the subfooter of the subform for confirming the total of each Bank receipt which is my one single transaction for the main form (when I use Sum/Agg). I’ve even tried a combination of some formulas after checking on the net but just cannot get the result of sum of all units. I am novice in creating an access database though I have used the applications some years back. Help in this regard would be really appreciated coz I want to display the total for that single transaction for the main as the details are captured in the subform and I want the totals on the subform footer only to know

Im not sure if its an easy solution or not. Basically, I have got a report which, in the detail section are different #error in access text boxes called location, date, charge etc. These are created via a query. Basically when opening the report the query will ask you to enter two dates, the report will then only show results which are between these two dates. Now, I wish to have all of the "charges" totaled up at the bottom of the report. If I create a text box with a control source of Sum=([Charge]) the only thing it brings back when the report is opened up is #error Interestingly enough, if i enter this sum textbox into the Detail section rather than the page footer it calculates the total fine. However I do not want this as it repeats this total below every single result the query finds. I really am not sure where I am going wrong and would be extremely grateful if someone could give some help Reply With Quote 04-10-09,21:46 #2 canupus View Profile View Forum Posts Registered User Join Date Jul 2004 Location South Dakota Posts 267 try =Sum(Charge) in the control source instead.
