Hi:
I have a situation where I am appending records to a table, and some of the records do NOT
have all the fields in them that the table has. In those cases, the field is filled with a
null but the normal append process. Does anyone know of an easy way to force the use of a
0 (zero) rather than a null when fields don't match on an append? It would make life much
easier down the line where I haver to do summing and things, and sometimes null doesn't
behave exactly the same as a zero!
Thanks

Use an expression
IIF(Nz([Field],0) > 0,[Field],0)
Of course, you could set the DefaultValue to zero in the table...or else in the form.
Thanks:
Of course..its a table.. set the default to zero!
I should have through of that!
Thanks

Help, I'm linking an excel spreadsheet in access and I have datafields
with leading zeros (01021). When the file is linked in access, I get
a #num in the field with the leading zeros. The zeros are needed.
I've formated the field to be a text field, general number, and number
and still I get the #num! error, or the leading zero is dropped. Can
someone help before I pull more of my hair.
Thanks a bunch.

I have a simple text box called txtrefnum, if the user enters a number
length less than 9 characters long than I need to have lead zeros
added to it. Does anyone know how to do this? I couldn't find anything
online on the subject...
<asp:TextBox id="txtRefNum" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
I thought I could use a validator for the process and make the user
add the zeros, but of course that is a big no-no! Please help!!

I'm working on an app that records data collected by service

For example, they may record one reading as 63.45 and the next as 123.1

That's fine - those can be saved as floating point numbers (very

Hi, I'm trying to combine the text in two original fields and paste them into another 3rd field on a form, but the problem is that there are leading zeros in both original fields, which access does not copy into the 3rd field.
For example, if field 1 = 07 and field 2 = 0001, i'd like the 3rd field to be 070001, but instead access returns 71 in the 3rd field.
Adding to the complexity a bit is that field 2 is an autonumber field. so when i...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
