I would like to sort alphabetize a column that is concatenated with another, that is, I am creating a custom column in which I am concatenating two columns.
The custom column formula I am using is the following:
= [IdCliente] & " - " & [NombreCliente]
The column I'm interested in alphabetizing is [NombreCliente]
Try to sort the column by [NombreCliente] making use of the function Order.Ascending as follows:
= [IdCliente] & " - " & Order.Ascending [NombreCliente]
But this is generated by an error indicating the following:
Expression.Error: Cannot apply field access to type Number.
Details:
Value=0
Key=NombreCliente
Any suggestion to correctly sort my column alphabetically.
UPDATE 1:
This is an example of how you would like the ordered data to look
It is important to bear in mind that the value A0002 comes from the column [IdCliente] and the CEST value comes from the column [NombreCliente]
|Not Order |Order
|-----------------------------
|A0002 - CEST |A0012 - ARCET
|-----------------------------
|A0012 - ARCET |A0002 - CEST
|-----------------------------
|A0015 - FULL |A0015 - FULL
UPDATE 2:
I have arranged alphabetically the column [NombreCliente] in Power Query but when transferring it to a table the same order is maintained taking into account the [IDCliente] column.
Click the dropdown on the [NombreClient] column and choose Sort ascending.
If you're using this column in a visual, then you have to use the Sort by Column functionality.
That will then be used as the default sort order:

I am new to MS Access and I would like to generate an autogenerated sequential and unique alphanumeric number of the format SYYMM001, SYYMM002, SYYMM003... (ex for 2023 january: S2301001, S2301002, S2301003).
I use MS Access 2016.
I am in my table, in View mode, in the column InvoiceCode in which I want the number to appear, in the general sheet, in Default Value I used the following code:
= "S" & Format(Now(),"yymm") & Format((DCount("[InvoiceID]","InvoiceTable")),"000")
where InvoiceID is the autonumber column and InvoiceTable the name of the table.
This code does not work and generate the following error:
"Unknown function "Dcount" in validation expression or default value on "Invoice Table.InvoiceCode"
I tried another code that I found online which works but instead of giving me a sequential number it generate a random number ex S2301586, S2301236 ...
="S" & Format(Now(),"yymm") & Format(Int(Rnd()*1000),"000")
Would you have a code that would do what I need?
Thanks in advance for your help
You can't set this in the table.
You could try this in your form you use for data entry - in the BeforeInsert event of the form:
Me!InvoiceID.Value = "S" & Format(Date,"yymm") & Format(DCount("*","InvoiceTable"),"000")
I want to display all values existing in column A when a specific string exist elsewhere on that row.
The formula in B10 should display "Table, Bed" in any form.
=ARRAYFORMULA(JOIN(",",IF(C3:E5=A10,A3:A5,)))
Comparison = within a array formula produces the desired array. Join them with ,
I have a Table called Records with the following four columns:
ID | StartChainage | EndChainage | DistanceTraveled
The DistanceTraveled is the difference between EndChainage and StartChainage. For each new record, the StartChainage should be equal to the EndChainage of the previous one.
I have created a Form called Record1 where I can only add values in the field called EndChainage, while in the field StartChainage I use the following expression:
=IIf([ID]=1,0,DLookUp("[EndChainage]","Record","[ID]=Forms![Record1]![ID]-1"))
Where I actually say that for the first record in the Table "Records" (i.e. ID=1) the value in the StartChainage must be 0, else it should obtain the value of the EndChainage field of the previous record.
This works fine and I have a Form with fields where I only input the value of the EndChainage and the Form sets the value of the StartChainage for the next record and it also calculates the DistanceTraveled.
The problem is that the calculated fields are NOT updating the relevant fields of the Table. In the Table the only updated fields are the EndChainage ones, i.e. the ones I only type manually the values.
How can I make the Table to get automatically updated by the calculated fields of the Form?
Maybe I could use calculated fields in the Table itself, but this is not what I really want.
Try with:
=IIf([ID]=1,0,DLookUp("[EndChainage]","Record","[ID]=" & Forms![Record1]![ID]-1 & ""))
Check if you get the ID:
=Forms![Record1]![ID]-1
In my webix datatable, I am showing multiple values in the cells for some columns.
To identify which values belong to which header, I have separated the column headers by a '|' (pipe) and similarly the values under them as well.
Now, in place of delimiting the columns by '|' , I need to split the columns into some editable columns with the same name.
Please refer to this snippet : https://webix.com/snippet/8ce1148e
In this above snippet, for example the Scores column will be split into two more editable columns as Rank and Vote. Similarly for Place column into Type and Name.
How the values of the first array elements is shown under each of them will remain as is.
How can this be done ?
Thanks
While creating the column configuration for webix, you can provide array to the header field for the first column along with the colspan like below:
var columns = [];
columns[0] =
{"id":"From", "header":[{"text":"Date","colspan":2},{"text":"From"}]};
columns[1] =
{"id":"To","header":[null, {"text":"To"}]};
column[0] will create Date and From and column[1] will be creating the To.
I'm trying to make a Calculated Value Control expression on the below columns:
Row Count | Date | Value
What I want to get is the Value for the 'newest' date, which will also be the highest row count. How can I write an expression to get this, it seems like it ought to be simple. I'm having trouble writing it in only expression language, without SQL.
Using the expression below you can limit the records in your table to those with the highest (aka most recent) date which should have your Value of interest.
[Date] = Max([Date])
You can do the same with row count since you mentioned the record of interest being the highest row count:
[Row Count] = Max([Row Count])
If you're looking to create a calculated column you can use a case statement to spit out the value:
case when [Date] = Max([Date]) then [Value] end
Lastly, should you want to display this value in a Text Area to show off your value you can utilize the calculated column above:
1) Create a new Text Area
2) Type some text about what it is: "Value for newest Date: " (optional)
3) Click "Insert Dynamic Item" -> "Calculated Value"
4) Under "Data" ensure the appropriate data table is selected. Note: You can uncheck the "Use Current Filtering..." box here if you do not want your value to update as you filter.
5) Under Values, utilize our calculated column with "Max" wrapped around it to avoid Summing duplicate values:
Max(CALCULATED_COLUMN)
Here is a screenshot of my work with random filler dates and values: http://i.imgur.com/hFapS8c.png
The larger text is to show the calculated value dynamic items. I used Max([Date]) for the date value.
