please help: overflow problem in query result using double precision fields from underlying table

Hi,

In a table I have two numeric fields (e.g. FieldA and FieldB). Both fields
have double precicion (field size "double"), Format "Fixed" and Decimal
places "3" since I want to calculate with at least 3 digits precision (e.g.
values might show as 0.123).

In a select query, I divide FieldA by FieldB. All results show properly.

Then I want to display all records that show values above 0.5. To do so, I
enter
query criteria: >0.5

When I run the query, I get the message "Overflow". When I press ok, I get
the message again, when I press ok for the second time, the query result
shows #Name? in all fields.

Anyone who can help me with this?

Thanks a lot!

Maarten

the where clause for the query should be:
where (FieldA/FieldB) .5
is that what you have?

Cheers,

Hello, How can underflow and overflow of the basic arithmetic types be tested for using standard C++? For instance, if two long doubles are multiplied together, test whether or not the result is too large to fit in a long double? Thank you for your time, Oplec.

Hi folks, I have a problem with an MS Access SQL query which is being used in an Access Report, and am wondering if anyone can help.

Hi all, I'm hoping someone can stop me tearing (what's left of) my hair out over this problem... I have a linked Excel file from which I append the data to an empty local Access table.

I have a table with 50 fields that receive input depending on whether that input came in from a 'shaker' form or a 'conveyor' form. Input from the 'conveyor' form might populate 25 fields while input from the 'shaker' form will populate another 20-25 fields but not the same fields (however there are about 10 common fields to both). I'd thought about using two tables (one for 'conveyor' and the other for 'shaker') but thought I'd try just...
