I have a question I need help for, below is a very strict detailed explination of the current scenario I am in and I need assistance for it:
1) I have a percentage of Commission I need to calculate, the percentage of commission constitudes of the following information:
a) Date,
b) Customer Name,
c) Company,
d) Name,
e) 5% New,
f) 3% Ext,
g) Rep,
h) Doble Ref (0.025, 0.015),
i) Total Amount, and
j) Total of Commission.
If a person enters the same customer name more than ones, it will give that person's name a Doble ref (0.015) of commission, if on the other hand that customer is new it will give that person a commision of 0.05% new. I hope this is not intending to confuse you, it just gives the general idea of what the percentage of commission is intended to be.
To come back to the point, I have a form created under Access that holds all the names of the person's reference by in that case "Name" letter (d) described above. If I select for example a person name "Fahed" and I click on the button calculate new commission I want to be able to draw all the commissions that Fahed have done and then use the form above to do the approriate calculation.
The above is a general problem, below is the scenario:
I get a form called New Client, the form New Client is a parent form and underneath that form is a sub form which holds estimates, invoices and so on. Ones again I am giving you the picture of what the form looks like, I cannot paste the pictures here because they would take time and would not be clear. The new Client has a text field called Reference By. That text field is where I need to get for the Percentage of Commission form to be entered under the field Name, letter D (described above). The total of amount is extracted from the subform Invoice, total, of the parent form called New Client, and there is a check mark in the new client called "Already existed" that if I click it, that information is then send on a separate form called "PercentageOfCommission" that will determine if it calculates the percentag of 0.05 or 0.025 depending if it is Calculate Commission or calculate existing commission.
I want it to be able then to do the needed calculation which I already have the approriate formula for and then display in a report what is shown above.
I don't know how to get information from different forms, and I don't know how to display for example ALL FAHEDS with information but are related only to FAHED.
Ones again, let me give you an example:
Date Name Info
15-Feb 05 Fahed Stonyx
15-Mar 05 Fahed Commodore
...
18-Sep 05 Ahmed Apple IIc
I want to display only one name Fahed and when I click for example display summary to show ALLLL the name that holds Fahed that have different Info. Any help would be greatly appreciate it.
