Ok, I always post at the end of the day because by now I've fried my brain thinking and I have simple problems that I can't wrap my mind around.
I need some light shed on this for me,
2 Tables
Table1:
ItemID
NumberSold
Table2:
ItemID
InventoryAmt
I have a Select query, I have a relationship drawn between the ID's. I forget now, Straight line with an arrow head from Table2 to Table1.
All I need is every item in Table 2 to have it's Amt subtracted by NumberSold.
My expression [InventoryAmt] - [NumberSold] works for as long as I have an entry for it in Table1. If there is no record of this item ever being sold it gives a blank value. I would like that value to be the InventoryAmt, since X - 0 = X.
How do I explain to my query that if no record is present in Table1 to Subtract from Table2 just use Table2's value?
This has to be easy and I'm sorry to start a thread over it. It's almost quitting time and I'm banging my head off this, heh.
