Good day!
I have a table that holds information for a type of show and the base cost of the show. I am trying to make a query that gathers information for all the shows in the table and uses the Dlookup function to identify the base cost of that show. This will in turn be used in the same query to create a quote, but I can not get the Dlookup function to work and I am sure that I may be doing it very wrong.
The table is called ShowList. That table contains 3 fields, ID, Show Type, and Cost.
The query is called Venue Cost and will have a series of fields that work to develop some math on all items from another table called Venue Info. Venue Info uses ShowList to select the type of show.
What I want the query to do is look up the Show type from VenueInfo and then look up the base cost of the show type from ShowList. What I have been using is not working but is as follows:
DLookUp("Cost","ShowList","[Cost] =" & "[Venue Cost]![Venue Type]")
Any help here would be nice. Thanks.
