Have you checked the actual value that causes the error?Click to expand... I couldn't tell if it was just one value or not. If I copy the sql to design view I just get the overflow error immediately. I then removed the calcs and the query would run. Then I started playing around to see if I could get the calculations to work. I changed all values in the original table to doubles and set the "group by" total to expression. I have it working for now, so I hope that will suffice. Thanks!

"Overflow" P: n/a Spook Running https://bytes.com/topic/access/answers/209934-overflow a particular Access report or the query associated with it brings up the https://bytes.com/topic/access/answers/911133-access-sql-error-overflow warning "Overflow". What does this mean? WhatI have I done wrong? Both report and query were fine before lunch and the only thing I have changed is updated the data from one of the tables it pull info from. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE Nov 13 '05 #1 Post Reply Share this Question overflow error 4 Replies P: n/a Allen Browne Overflow means the number is too large for the data type. As an example, open the Immediate Window (Ctrl+G), and enter: ? 200 * 200 It overflows, because the default data type in VBA is Integer (16-bit), which runs out at 32767. 40000 is too big, so we must convert one of the numbers to a Long Integer overflow access error (32-bit) so it does not overflow: ? CLng(200) * 200 Use CDbl() to convert to a double, CCur() to convert to Currency, CVDate() to convert to date. -- Allen Browne - Microsoft MVP. Perth, Western Australia.

Access SQL error "Overflow" P: 39 Amy Badgett I keep getting the error: "Overflow" with this piece of MS Access SQL coding: Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers SELECTDISTINCT (SELECTCount(tblCallLog.tblCallLog_gospelPresented)FROMtblCallLogWHEREtblCallLog.tblCallLog_callDate=Date()ANDtblCallLog.tblCallLog_callDateIsNotNullANDtblCallLog.tblCallLog_gospelPresented=true)AStodaysGospelPres, (SELECTCount(tblCallLog.tblCallLog_gospelPresented)FROMtblCallLogINNERJOINtblClientsONtblCallLog.tblCallLog_clientID=tblClients.tblClients_clientIDWHEREtblCallLog.tblCallLog_callDate=Date()ANDtblCallLog.tblCallLog_callDateIsNotNullANDtblCallLog.tblCallLog_gospelPresented=trueANDtblClients.tblClients_jewish=true)AStodaysGospelPresJewish, (todaysGospelPres-todaysGospelPresJewish)AStodaysGospelPresGentile, Format((todaysGospelPresJewish/todaysGospelPres),"Percent")AStodaysJewishGospelPercent, (todaysGospelPresJewish&'('&todaysJewishGospelPercent&')')AScomboTodayJewishGospel FROMtblCallLogINNERJOINtblClientsONtblCallLog.tblCallLog_clientID=tblClients.tblClients_clientID; Does anyone have an idea why? Apr 2 '11 #1 Post Reply Share this Question 1 Reply Expert Mod 2.5K+ P: 2,543 Stewart Ross I think the most likely explanation is that there is a division by zero error happening, which gives rise to the overflow exception. Check the data in the underlying query carefully, and in particular look for the value of todaysGospelPres being 0 somewhere. This field is an alias for the Count done in line 3. If you check line 9 of the SQL statement above you will see that this count is used as the divisor in the expression Format((todaysGospelPresJewish / todaysGospelPres), "Percent") One way of avoiding such an error is to test the value, and if it is 0 substitute a suitable value instead. There is more than one way to do this, so here are two examples: Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers IIF(todaysGospelPres<>0,Format((todaysGospelPresJewish/todaysGospelPres),"Percent"),null) Format((todaysGospelPresJewish/IIF(todaysGospelPres=0,1,todaysGospelPres)),"Percent") The first method has the advantage that a null value is substituted for the whole expression when the divisor is 0, leading to a blank result. The second example has the disadavantage that you will not necessarily know t
