I am trying to write an expression that converts one set of values to
another. There are two fields, STAGE and ADMIT_TYPE, which are used as
input criteria, and the final converted values are placed in the
APPSTATUS field. The rules for the conversion are as follows:
If STAGE = 600 then APPSTATUS = 03
If STAGE > 300 then APPSTATUS = 01
If STAGE > 300 and ADMIT_TYPE = AF or AFD or AP or APD, then APPSTATUS
= 02
If STAGE < 300 then APPSTATUS = ""
This is the expression I have typed up, but I havn't gotten the right
results:
IIf([STAGE]="600","03",IIf ([STAGE]>"300","01",IIf ([STAGE]>"300" And
[ADMIT_TYPE]= "AF" or "AFD" or "AP" or
APD","02",IIf([STAGE]<"300",""))) )
I have limited experience using most of the code, and though I have
used the IIf statement before, I am not even sure if it is the right
one for this situation. If anyone has a better way to do it or sees
the error in the way I have attempted to do this, please let me know.
Or if this isn't clear enough please let me know and I will try to
explain further. I appreciate any help that you can give!

1)You have to repeat the field name for each and/or criteria.
2) If the criteria value (i.e. 600 03, etc.) are numbers, not text, do not
enclose them in quotes.
3) You left out a quote in [Admit_Type] = "APD"
4) Place the and/or's within parenthesis to make what you want clear to
Access.
IIf([STAGE]=600,3,IIf([STAGE]>300,1,IIf([STAGE]>300 And
([ADMIT_TYPE]= "AF" or [Admit_Type] = "AFD" or [Admit_Type] = "AP" or
[Admit_Type] = "APD"),2,II f([STAGE]<300,""))))
5) You don't need to, but I would have moved IIf[Stage]<300 to the first IIf
statement,
or left it out altogether, as if it the other criteria isn't met, nothing
will appear anyway.
IIf([STAGE]=600,3,IIf([STAGE]>300,1,IIf([STAGE]>300 And
([ADMIT_TYPE]= "AF" or [Admit_Type] = "AFD" or [Admit_Type] = "AP" or
[Admit_Type] = "APD"),2,"" )))

Please try this:
IIf([STAGE]=600,"03",IIf(([STAGE]>300 And ([ADMIT_TYPE]="AF" Or
[ADMIT_TYPE]="AFD" Or [ADMIT_TYPE]="AP" Or
[ADMIT_TYPE]="APD")),"02",I If([STAGE]>300,"01","") ))

You might want to create a code module and write a user-defined
function. I find them a lot easier to maintain. Name the module
anything except cvtStage2Appsta tus. I usually have a module
Conversions with several of these functions. They will even appear
in the expression builder. Very handy.
'-------------------------
Public function cvtStage2Appsta tus( _
byval mystage as variant, _
myadmit_type as variant) as variant
select case mystage
case >=600
cvtStage2Appsta tus = 03 ' or "03"
case > 300
select case myAdmit_type
case "AF"
cvtStage2Appsta tus = 02 ' or "02"
case "AFD"
cvtStage2Appsta tus = 02
case "AP"
cvtStage2Appsta tus = 02
case "APD"
cvtStage2Appsta tus = 02
case else
cvtStage2Appsta tus = 01
end select
case 300
'Your choices don't include this.
' Fix by adding an option here, or delete this section and
'modify < 300 to <=300, or >300 to >=300
case else ' <300
cvtStage2Appsta tus = 00 ' or " "
end select
end function
'-------------------------
Use the quoted version if you want a string result, the version as
I have it for a number.
Now in your query grid, call the function as
Appstatus: cvtStage2Appsta tus([Stage],[Admit_type])
Or in a textbox.control source on a form or report
=cvtStage2Appst atus([Stage],[Admit_type])

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
