    Date Calculations + Average based on specific field entry on a report

    Hi all, I've currently got a report called rpt_TrackedTime that is supposed to keep track of cases that have been worked by the employees. I'm trying to have the report do some averages of the data from my main table (PreRPA) in the report. It isn't working and I can't do a calculated...

    Are you an atheist?

    I read an article in the Washington Post this morning that I think relevant, especially those of us who espouse a more scientific approach to reasoning. The article is entitled "How to Change Someone's Mind According to Science." Some key points: - After five rounds of back-and-forth comments...

    Are you an atheist?

    FINALLY! An Islamic poster. Aziz, let me introduce you to Bladerunner, I think you two may be the only ones who actually understand each other, though you might hate each other. Know your enemy and all that. So the Koran doesn't contradict itself and that's your proof? Oh wait, is this because...

    Obama's Mistaken and Incromprehensible ISIS Strategy

    Yep, either a troll or a southern baptist...but the two are nearly indistinguishable. Blade, I thought it was only 144,000 that would be saved? So maybe you should revise your theology to write off 99% of my people instead of 66% to fit your religious dogma or your "prophetic" clock. But to...

    Obama's Mistaken and Incromprehensible ISIS Strategy

    I can't make the connection logically here, so you may have to help me. How does me wanting peace, even knowing history, indicate my lack of belief in G-d, and you being more in tune with my people than me? Your hubris in your extremely narrow worldview is staggering and offensive.

    Obama's Mistaken and Incromprehensible ISIS Strategy

    I do believe the vetting process has been covered extensively earlier in the thread This statement alone proves the single source of media you inhale greedily like it was cocaine. A very simple, basic, and cursory search will show the vast majority of American Muslim organizations have come...

    Obama's Mistaken and Incromprehensible ISIS Strategy

    That is laughable, suggesting that I care so much about feeling good and reaching out to foreigners that I would write off the lives of my countrymen. Do you only see in black and white? I'm an army vet, I've seen friends get shot and lose limbs in front of me. I've eliminated terrorist...

    Obama's Mistaken and Incromprehensible ISIS Strategy

    I don't limit the application of blather to only one party ;) I agree with you there, as I did previously state the reality of nearby Muslim countries (which a big portion would be Saudi Arabia) refusing refugees is a travesty. I don't expect much budging here, or the 'Palestinian' issue...

    US Senate voted to block President Obama’s tough new climate change regulations

    Doc, so much for reclining and watching it all play out ;-) In your defense, you did say 'perhaps', lol.

    Obama's Mistaken and Incromprehensible ISIS Strategy

    Thanks. I usually read from a 'safe' distance. To Blade and Steve, how many Muslims already in America do you think would become radicalized or gain terrorist leanings if we refused and pressed on with the blather we have seen from so many governors and high-ranking republican officials? To...

    Obama's Mistaken and Incromprehensible ISIS Strategy

    There are now 12 Jewish groups (with the recent addition of the Orthodox Union) urging the acceptance of Syrian refugees: www. haaretz. Com /jewish/news/1.687407 (spaces added since I can't post links yet) It's nice to see some religious organizations aligning with human decency...even the...

    Are you an atheist?

    If a two-hour video can convince anyone to change what they hold to be true, they didn't spend much time or effort getting a grip on their reality (actual or perceived).

    Dropdown list of Reports starting with SWP

    Minty, Your pointers to sdjames were really helpful to me. I'm a beginner myself. I've created a form (ReportViewer) that has a listbox of the reports, populated using the code you provided above. Intended Filter1: I've also created a date range that will act as a filter with the default...

    "Enter Parameter" problem doing an Avg function

    pbaldy, I tried your recommendation and created a set of queries that I could use on my report instead of using calculated controls that arent stored. Example of a query is SELECT DateDiff("d",[DTPosVac],[DTAppB]) AS MGR_VacToAppB FROM PreRPA; This query returns the correct values...

    "Enter Parameter" problem doing an Avg function

    Appreciated. I don't have much experience working with query's yet, but I'll start diving in. It's interesting stuff, and I'm getting paid to take the time to learn it, so I'm happy :)

    "Enter Parameter" problem doing an Avg function

    pbaldy, Thanks, that worked for TotalTime but not HR_Time or Manager_Time, probably because those are calculated controls as well. Is this because the report doesn't store the calculated value's? Would it work better if I calculated these times on my table and kept them stored for easier access...

    "Enter Parameter" problem doing an Avg function

    Hi all, I'm an HR professional, but because I'm "okay" with computers I've been tasked with an HR database that tracks the time it takes to hire a new employee. Help would be appreciated because my attempts to find the answer has proved fruitless so far.. Working on a report that uses the...
