    Is there a way to simplify this code and drive it from a table

    Hi Bill, We're still playing around with the quantities. This is a kind of a learn as you go project. Trying to decide if we want unlimited per estimate of just limit it to 3. Unlimited would be a case of wrapping a for each around my calculation code (I think) We're also thinking maybe we'll...

    Is there a way to simplify this code and drive it from a table

    Thanks Bill. I've just tried importing this but even after deleting my own main menu it's exactly the same. Weird. Once of those estimate forms is the old design we we're going for but it didn't work out. I'll add Option Explicit to all my modules. Thanks.

    Is there a way to simplify this code and drive it from a table

    Great news! The clever chap I work with has written a loop for our average price calculation. If rs.RecordCount <> 0 Then rs.MoveFirst Do Until Quantity <= rs!MaximumQuantity Total = (rs!MaximumQuantity - rs!MinimumQuantity) * rs!ClickPrice Subtotal =...

    Is there a way to simplify this code and drive it from a table

    Is that like the hyperlink examples they have on the Northwind and Services templates? I was trying to figure out how they worked. An estimate can be made up of purely mail components (these are easily selected from a table) or a print component (which needs to be calculated based upon a few...

    Is there a way to simplify this code and drive it from a table

    Thanks Bill. ItemName (could also be names ProductName) in tblEstPrinting is the name for that printed item as each estimate can have more than 1 printed item (letter and brochure for example) so they need to be differentiated. That is the reason why I've got ProductName on the...

    Is there a way to simplify this code and drive it from a table

    What we're calculating is the impressions not printed items. It means that if someone gets a quote for 20 impressions one day, 250 impressions the next and 2200 impressions the prices are all calculated the same way rather than having a set price for the quantity break. It also means that there...

    Is there a way to simplify this code and drive it from a table

    Thanks for your reply Simon. It's the fairest way we've found to calculate that price. It's not the price of an actual product but a component of one.

    Is there a way to simplify this code and drive it from a table

    A walk on the beach. That sounds nice. Are you in NZ at the moment? I'm in Auckland which Google is saying is 10deg C. Cold but very sunny. Thanks for your help Bill.

    Is there a way to simplify this code and drive it from a table

    Bugger. Try this. I've zipped with another piece of software and uploaded with Chrome rather than FF. Cheers,

    Is there a way to simplify this code and drive it from a table

    Thank you both for your help so far. It is very much appreciated. Attached are some files for you. They way the system is currently working is it's taking a bunch of lookups from combo boxes in a form and comes back with a average click price which is multiplied by the number of sheets. We...

    Is there a way to simplify this code and drive it from a table

    Thanks for the reply. This code will calculate a rate at which the printing is charged at (avgclick would be the price per sheet printed) based upon the quantity. The rest of our products are simple per 1000 rates. I've got a table setup with ID, MinimumQuantity and Rate which has all my price...

    Is there a way to simplify this code and drive it from a table

    Price calculation loop driven from table. Is this possible? I've written a chunk of code which calculates an average price based upon a quantity - I'm pretty stoked with it being a complete novice. Basically the first 50 items are charged at a certain price, the next 50 at a certain price, the...

    Question about checkboxes

    Thanks for the reply Dave. In my scenario a printed piece would either need the finishing item or not as we've got a machine which you bung it through making it no different for 1 or 10 creases. Wouldn't the selections for an estimate need to be stored inside a table so that a price can be...

    Question about checkboxes

    Hi there, I'm working on redeveloping my companies quotation and job system. Currently we're quoting in excel and manually enter the data into an access database which populates the quote letter and then converts it through to a job. The goal is to move the full quoting process in to Access...
