I have a rether simple, straight-forward Access database and need to include a calculated field in the report. My Access skills are elementary, ergo the need for assistance.
I have a "Date_Recei ved" field [date format] and an "Inventorie d" field [T/F]. I need assistance in building an expression in the calculated field something like this: -
IF INVENTORIED<>T THEN
-
DATE() - DATE RECEIVED
-
I can not figure out how to accomplish this. Help would be most appreciated!

The syntax for an if statement in Access goes like this:
iif([Condition], [Value if True], [Value if False])
So in your case, it would go something like:
iif([Inventoried]="T", Date() - [Date_Received], "")
Note that if you want something returned if [Inventoried]="F" then you will need to replace the empty string ("") with that value. Also note the two i's in the word IIF.

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

I assume I'm not alone in my frustration that the expression builder
that comes (in part) with Access XP that dosnt wrap text when you open
it on an exisitng expression in a query or form.
I's bad enough that Microsoft dropped the expression builder from the
VB window (which I have restored using Michael Kaplan addin), but I
cant understand how they could not have fixed this obviously and
annoying BUG!@

Hi,
I want to use the expression builder in a query to define a field. I

When though the expression is too complex, the builder is not very
convenient to use. I tried to use a function instead... The error I

I like using the expression builder for a lot of different things but it
isn't always available when I want to use it, for example in the code

right-clicking in a field and selecting build.
Is there a shortcut key, a way to add a button to an Access toolbar, or
something like that so I can use to...
