Good old Nz seems to have done the trick. Thanks! Access is strange animal.

Just did as suggested: cboRegion.value = "" cboRegion.value = " " me.cboregion = null me.cboregion = "" me.cboregion.value = null me.cboregion.value = "" All make no difference. I'm checking the value of the cbo in the code and it's showing as null, so by rights it should enter the first...

I've got a very simple if statement set up around a recordset / query displayer. It is meant to check if a certain cbobox is blank. If so, then error and exit the sub, else compile the query and execute. For some reason though, it's acting as if the if statement doesn't exist and runs the query...

I knew I had seen the = nothing before but never knew way will implement that. Thanks! I've now got the function working more or less how I want. The problem is, it's still taking around 6 minutes to run this query. I was hoping that someone would be able to see if my code could be tweaked to...

Changes noted and made, thanks :) I've been working on it and have got it working well, it seems. I'm still working out bugs but I'm quite proud that I got this working with rSets so quickly, thanks to AP.co.uk and Google of course :) Do I need to close the recordset at the end of the function?

This one was a pickle but I ended up solving it pretty easily with dlookup: DelayedAmount = Nz(DLookup("" & eco_gross & "", "tblRecords", "[WeekID]=" & DelayedWeek & " And [PartnersetID]=" & pid), 0) Problem is, it's very slow.

Hi all, I've built a small(ish) function that I referred to in another thread, here. It currently uses Dlookup, which is simple but far too slow. I'm trying to convert it to use Recordsets and being completely new to their use, I've come up with the below. Function get_invoiced_test(hosted...

Hi everyone, I'm writing a small function that will be used to calculate some revenue numbers based on a few conditions. One of the conditions is a delay period, in weeks. It's stored in a table, but let's say it will be 4. I want my function to take a number from the current record, Number...

Hi all, Stangest problem happened today, I went to open up our database, which automatically opens a UI form. Holding shift to bypass this normally shows the objects window, but today it was gone. All that was left was a neverending scrollbar at the bottom. I've looked around for a solution...

Tell me about it, he's got his head in the clouds and wants to implement every bloody feature under the sun regardless of how inefficient, time-consuming or useless it is. Thanks.

I thought of that, but does that allow data entry also? This item will be used for longer term revenue planning so data needs to be entered.

Hi all, I have a small problem here that I don't know how to tackle. Imagine your generic monthly revenue report in excel. You have the days of the month as columns and the values like gross revenue, net revenue, profit etc as rows. I want to replicate this in Access using a table field week...

Great! thanks for the above, it triggered in my mind that the data was a remnant from another function where I copied the format command from. The below works perfectly: [WeekID]>=Format(Now(),"ww",0,0)

Hey all, I'm trying to change the forecolor of control A on a subform based on the value of another control B on the same subform. The subform displays as a datasheet. Here's what I've got in control A's conditional formatting box: [Control B]>=(Format([Date],"ww",0,0)) Control B...

Thanks guys, as far as bad design goes, tell my boss that. As much as I'd like to do it my way, I can't :) The records need to be created all at once and empty so that revenue forecasting data can be imported into them - so not really empty. The above is just what you helped me with before...
