Access Round Function
Guest An overflow error means the data type that Access is using is not large enough to hold the result. To see an example, open the Immediate Window (Ctrl+G), and enter: ? 200 * 200 You get the overflow error, because the code window treats the value of 200 as an integer, but the result is to large for an integer (i.e. greater than 32767.) To solve the issue, typecast one of the values to a long: ? CLng(200) * 200 Now to track down what's causing this error. The overflow could be occuring with your data, or it could be within Access itself. If this report is based on a query, run the query itself? Does it generate an overflow? If so, identify the calculated fields, and typecast them. Details: http://allenbrowne.com/ser-45.html If the calculated query fields call a user-defined function, the function could be causing the overflow. Temporarily comment out any error handler in the function, so you can see what line generates the error. Also, from the code window choose Options on the Tools menu. On the General tab, make sure Error Trapping is set to: Break on Unhandled Errors so you can see the errors. Also uncheck Compile on Demand (which can corrupt the database.) If the query runs fine, does the report have any code in its module? If so, again comment out any error handler so you can see what is triggering the error. Next,

Here's the code for the command: Code: Private Sub cmdPrintReport_Click() Dim strReportName As String Dim strCriteria As String strReportName = "Organizational Profile" strCriteria = "[Ultimate Parent]='" & Me![Ultimate Parent] & "'" DoCmd.OpenReport strReportName, acViewPreview, , strCriteria End Sub Reply With Quote 07-08-08,07:08 #4

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, 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.

When you attempt to export this report to Excel, it throws an Overflow error on page 23 (of 33 pages), and the report isn't exported. I exported the query that feeds the report, and it exports fine. But the report won't export and always throws this error. Does anyone know why this is happening? I tried searching for a solution, but was unable to find anything other than an explanation of data types. There aren't any special characters, all data fields are defined properly and contain the correct type of data, etc. Anybody know how to trap this error so I can see what is causing the problem?
