I have a query that I'm trying to update with a dlookup with multiple criteria
This is the string: - EVNT_DT: DLookUp("[Date]","[LU - Quarter Dates]","( [PRC_15011 - Find_Vendor_Mgmt_Fees].EVNT_QTR=[LU - Quarter Dates].[Quarter]) & ([PRC_15011 - Find_Vendor_Mgmt_Fees].[EVNT_YEAR]=[LU - Quarter Dates].[YEAR])")
When i run it it says it can't find the name PRC_15011 - Find_Vendor_Mgm t_Fees.EVNT_QTR .
But I know the names are right, I've checked them three times.
Does anyone have an idea what's wrong? Is it the wrong syntax or something?
4  3333 
does anyone have any ideas? I have tried it about three different ways, and I cna't get it correct?

Are the Tables [LU - Quarter Dates] And [PRC_15011 - Find_Vendor_Mgm t_Fees] related? If so, create a Query using both Tables and including any relevant Fields. Specify this Query as your Domain instead of [LU - Quarter Dates]. If they are not, I'm not sure that you can what you are requesting.

You're using the ampersand character (&) instead of the SQL AND operator. This will have the effect of concatenating the two criteria as strings instead of performing a logical AND on the results. -
EVNT_DT: DLookUp("[Date]", _
-
"[LU - Quarter Dates]", _
-
"([PRC_15011 - Find_Vendor_Mgmt_Fees].EVNT_QTR=[LU - Quarter Dates].[Quarter]) " & _
-
"AND " & _
-
"([PRC_15011 - Find_Vendor_Mgmt_Fees].[EVNT_YEAR]=[LU - Quarter Dates].[YEAR])")

Of course, as you're trying to access fields from a table that isn't referenced in the DLookup function anyway ([PRC_15011 - Find_Vendor_Mgm t_Fees]), it won't work as I expect you intend. It looks as if you are after something a little more complicated than you've assumed.
You will need to build some sort of query that connects the two tables before trying this.

I have a field that retrieves information from an expression in a
query. I have used a DLookup function to get the calculated field
from the query. However, the relationship is 1-to-many so one site
could have many units. How do I have the DLookUp field value change
to a newly calcuated field when I navigate through the units? please
see example below:

A site can have many units.

I have a table with 4 fields. Three are used for criteria.
I can get the DLookup to work with 1 criteria with the following but
can't get it to work with 2 or three.
NumofAppts = DLookup("", "LookUpAppts", "
= " & Forms!!NumofPeople)
Can someone tell me how to add multiple criteria? I tried "And" but
it doesn't seem to work.

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.
