Both are strings but the excel file is a standard 255 characters and I can't figure out how to change it. (the field in the psoft query is a 10 character string). How can I create a formula to make...

    Linking tables from 2 db drivers

    I linked two tables using the same field from each, but the tables are from two different database sources. One table is from a Peoplesoft Query the other from Excel. The data source for the main report is Peoplesoft while the subreport's data source is from Excel. I'm able to browse field...

    Wildcard with If, then statement

    Thanks for your help. I tried your first suggestion, but couldn't make it work. I ended up using Trim Right which worked for me. Right({NS_INVOICE_ID}, 13) Then I used If, then, else argument If{@Adjustment}= "012007_022007" Then "Adj" Else If {@Adjustment}="012007_032007" Then "Adj" Else...

    Wildcard with If, then statement

    Hi all, I am trying to use a wildcard in an If, then statement. It's not working because the field property is string and perhaps the use of quotation marks is looking for a literal value. The numbering convention for the invoices are: vendorID_Month/year services rendered_Month/year paid so...

    Charts

    Hi, I want to insert a chart in the header of my report that will show the top 10 users. I used the Select Expert to limit the results to the top ten but the chart shows ALL 50 users. How can I limit what data is used in the chart? Thanks,

    Diff between using the Db Splitter wizard and just linking tables??

    I actually have three questions....here goes. First, I have a database in a multiuser environment. It's a small environment, so all of the users have full access. I created another database (also for multiusers), for the purpose of searching data only. The users have the ability to search...

    Automate merging fields in a form with a word97 document

    Thanks Rod, I tried both of your suggestions. The first, I'm afraid might be a little over my head, so alas, it did not work. Please specify what I should refer to for SourceObj and FileObj and I will try it again. Then, I tried your second suggestion and created a macro for the mailmerge...

    I have a table that contains contract information. I created a form to enter data. Each time we create a new record in the form, we open the table and merge it with a document in word97 to create a contract. We do this from either the table itself or from MSWord97 and each time ALL RECORDS...

    Type mismatch running a query (using a module)

    Please bear with me as I am still a novice. I've created several modules in my database that when expressed in a query would "group" the data accordingly. It usually works like a charm. However, I get a "data type mismatch in criteria expression" error message for the...

    An expression using 2 fields but returning the most recent value

    Thanks so much for your quick response to my query woe...but, the results were the same. Actually, I had to change it to IIF([Rate]=null,"",[RenewalRate]) to give me at least part of the result. Maybe my explanation was too muddled. Please see an example of what the query or report...
