Carrying payroll data into new records

Hello,

I am using Access 2002 to track payroll. I am trying to carry a
person's Sick time accrued into the next record for an individual. I
am a beginner with access.

I am using the following terms:

SickUsed: Sick time used in a given pay period. (Cannot exceed
SickAccumulated )

SickAccumulated : SickAccumulated through previous month minus SickUsed
(A person can only use sick time accumulated through previous
payperiod)

SickEarned: TotalHours Divided by 79.9 or if TotalHours is greater
than or equal to 80, then SickEarned is 4

SickBalance: SickAccumulated Plus SickEarned minus SickUsed (Current
Month)

Here is my main question: I want the SickBalance from the current
record to become SickAccumulated when a new payroll record is entered
for a person. Is there a way to make Access do this?

Thank you,

This is possible but not for the light heated. To do this, you need to
setup a field that is a counter, but the counter cannot miss any. To
complex things further, you will need have the counter reset for each
employe. For example:
Employee 1 Rec 1
Employee 1 Rec 2
Employee 1 Rec 3
Employee 1 Rec 4

Employee 2 Rec 1
Employee 2 Rec 2
Employee 2 Rec 3
Employee 2 Rec 4

There is no built-in function to do this. This can be accomplished via
VBA. Since you are wanting to store the results, your balance forward
calculation all use domain aggregate functions. Would not take me long to
do though.

You might look at doing this on a query. Group on employee, sum the
accrued column, sum the usage column, Accrued - Used, and so on.

Is there a way to carry data that I have already read from the datagrid from page to page? I am looking at my Datagrid that I page through and when the user says get the next page, I have to go to the database to get the next page. Is there a way to use the dataset to allow us to read back and forth in it instead of going back to the database to get it? Thanks,

I am developing a payroll program.. The data generated will be saved in an Access Database. I want a situation whereby when an employee leaves the organization or retires, instead of deleting his name from the Payroll it is made INACTIVE. This is to ensure that his/her name does not appear in subsequent payroll.

Hello again. I have setup a master form linked to a subform (actually nested subforms, but the top level subform is the one giving me trouble.) When entering data, the forms all appear to work correctly, but the moment that you change the record in the parent/master form, the forms "lose" all of the data we enter from the subforms. Upon examination of the tables, I found that the master key is not being populated into the top level subform,...

I have frmMain that takes in data about a particular event. Payroll information needs to be automatically calculated from this, but is stored in a different table. So, I included a subform frmPay, to remain hidden (as the user shouldn't be able to access it directly). When the user puts in the length of time into frmMain, I can round it to the nearest 15 minutes just fine for frmPay. Now, when I want to multiply those hours by their hourly...
