Access Textbox Custom Number Format - ms-access

I am from Bangladesh and in Bangladesh comma (,) is used as thousand separator. We use comma after 3 digit, 5 digit, 7 digit from right to left like 9,999, 99,999, 9,99,999,99,99,999,9,99,99,999 & 99,99,99,999. I was trying to accomplish this format by textbox format property. When I use #,##0 as format then it only format till 5 digit. When number is 6 digit or higher then it only shows one comma like 456,456 while expected is 4,56,456. I have tried to use #,##,##,##0 but it automatically goes to #,##0. So, how can I format the text box to get my desired result as below?

You can't. You'll have to run a custom format like this:
TextValue = Format(Fix(Value), Left("##\,##\,##\,##\,##\,##\,", -Int(-(Len(Abs(Fix(Value))) - 2) \ 2) * 4) & "##0")
Note, the negative values will be formatted correctly as well while decimals will be cut off.
If you have decimals, append these:
TextValue = Format(Fix(Value), Left("##\,##\,##\,##\,##\,##\,", -Int(-(Len(Abs(Fix(Value))) - 2) \ 2) * 4) & "##0") & LTrim(Str(Abs(CCur(Value)-Fix(Value))))
As used as ControlSource (read-only) in a form or a report:
=Format(Fix([Amount]),Left("##\,##\,##\,##\,##\,##\,",-Int(-(Len(Abs(Fix([Amount])))-2)\2)*4) & "##0")
Addendum:
To cover any situation with values:
Larger than 1, with or without decimals
Smaller than 1, a positive decimal value
Zero
Larger than -1, a negative decimal value
Smaller than -1, with or without decimals
an extended expression is needed:
TextValue = Format(Value, ";-") & _
Format(Abs(Fix(Value)), Left("##\,##\,##\,##\,##\,##\,", -Int(-(Len(CStr(Abs(Fix(Value)))) - 2) \ 2) * 4) & "##0") & _
IIf(Value - Fix(Value), LTrim(Str(Abs(Value - Fix(Value)))), "")
First part controls the sign
Second part controls the integer value
Third part controls decimals
This will output correctly for any value within the entire range of Currency.

IIf query decimal removal

Trying to attempt the following in MS Access.
Convert data in one field to an 18 digit number starting with 01 in another field.
There are also some conditions that have to be met:
the first dash should become double zeros
the second dash should be removed
the third and fourth dash should be a single zero
the decimal must also be replaced with a zero
My query works fine until the decimal is the 15th character in the data.
Here is the query:
SELECT MasterVacant.ParcelIdNumber,
"01" + Mid([ParcelIdNumber],1,2) + "00" + Mid([ParcelIdNumber],4,2) + Mid([ParcelIdNumber],7,1)
+ IIf(Mid([ParcelIDNumber],11,1) = "", "0"+Mid([ParcelIDNumber],9,2), Mid([ParcelIDNumber],9,3))
+ IIf(Mid([ParcelIDNumber],14,1) = ".", "0"+Mid([ParcelIDNumber],12,2), Mid([ParcelIDNumber],12,3))
+ Mid([ParcelIDNumber],15,3) AS ParcelNumber
FROM MasterVacant;
Here is a start and finish example...
'12-06-1-00-50.000-RR' should become '011200061000050000'
'12-06-3-07-09.000-RR' should become '011200063007009000'
'13-35-1-01-129.000-RR' should become '011300035100112900'
However, instead of getting `0113000351001129000' I get '013000351001129.00'.
The issue is how do I remove the decimal when the decimal is the 15th character like in the third set of example?
I receive the data as a single column. Some of it is below....
1. 13-35-1-07-29.000-RR
2. 13-35-1-01-112.000-RR (Removing the decimal when the data is like this is the issue)
3. 13-35-4-01-01.000-RR
4. 13-35-4-02-04.000-RR
5. 13-35-1-13-17.000-RR
The output for the above data should be
1. 011300351007029000
2. 011300351001112000
3. 011300354001001000
4. 011300354002004000
5. 011300351013017000
Use a custom function:
Public Function Make18(ByVal Value As String) As String
Const Head As String = "01"
Const Tail As String = "000"
Const Lead As String = "00"
Dim Parts As Variant
Dim Part As Integer
Dim Result As String
Parts = Split(Split(Value, ".")(0), "-")
For Part = LBound(Parts) To UBound(Parts)
Select Case Part
Case 0
Parts(Part) = Head & Parts(Part)
Case 1
Parts(Part) = Lead & Parts(Part)
Case 3, 4
Parts(Part) = Right(Lead & Parts(Part), 3)
End Select
Next
Result = Join(Parts, "") & Tail
Make18 = Result
End Function
and your query becomes:
SELECT
MasterVacant.ParcelIdNumber,
Make18([ParcelIdNumber]) AS ParcelNumber
FROM
MasterVacant;
I am assuming you meant the opposite where:
12-06-1-00-50.000-RR should become 011200061000050000
12-06-3-07-09.000-RR should become 011200063007009000
13-35-1-01-129.000-RR should become 0113000351001129.00
I would recommend the REPLACE() in MSACCESS to strip the dashes out. Once you have the dashes out you can MID()
Unfortunately your attempted code does something different with the 3rd row because 3 zeros are being put in when there should be only two in my opinion.
Try in a text box:
=Replace("13-35-1-01-129.000-RR","-","")
will return 1335101129.000RR
and see if that assists you in making your code.
Maybe go one step further and put it in a function.

SSRS Insert Space Between Numeric and Alpha Characters

I am having an issue where a field is stored in our database as '##ABC' with no space between the number and letters. The number can be anything from 1-100 and the letters can be any combination, so no consistency of beginning letter or numeric length.
I am trying to find a way to insert a space between the number and letters.
For example, '1DRM' would transform to '1 DRM'
'35PLT' would transform to '35 PLT'
Does anyone know of a way to accomplish this?
You can use regular expressions like the one below (assuming your pattern is digits-characters)
= System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Replace( Fields!txt.Value, "(\d)(\D)", "$1 $2")
Unfortunately, there's no built in function to do this.
Fortunately, Visual Studio lets you create functions to help with things like this.
You can add Visual BASIC custom code by going to the Report Properties and going to the Custom Code tab.
You would just need to write some code to go through some text input character by character. If it finds a number and a letter in the next character, add a space.
Here's what I wrote in a few minutes that seems to work:
Function SpaceNumberLetter(ByVal Text1 AS String) AS String
DIM F AS INTEGER
IF LEN(Text1) < 2 THEN GOTO EndFunction
F = 1
CheckCharacter:
IF ASC(MID(Text1, F, 1)) >= 48 AND ASC(MID(Text1, F, 1)) <=57 AND ASC(MID(Text1, F + 1, 1)) >= 65 AND ASC(MID(Text1, F + 1, 1)) <=90 THEN Text1 = LEFT(Text1, F) + " " + MID(Text1, F+1, LEN(Text1))
F = F + 1
IF F < LEN(Text1) THEN GOTO CheckCharacter
EndFunction:
SpaceNumberLetter = Text1
End Function
Then you call the function from your text box expression:
=CODE.SpaceNumberLetter("56EF78GH12AB34CD")
Result:
I used text to test but you'd use your field.

Highcharts with external CSV $.get - No xAxis date

I'm trying to create a spline chart using this CSV:
slave_id,date,time,rtc_temp,temp1,temp2,temp3
1,2017/12/26,16:42:59,21,11.50,13.13,5.88
2,2017/12/26,16:43:29,21,14.13,20.63,99.99
1,2017/12/26,16:44:00,21,11.50,13.13,5.88
2,2017/12/26,16:44:30,21,14.13,20.63,99.99
1,2017/12/26,16:45:01,21,11.50,13.13,5.88
2,2017/12/26,16:45:31,21,14.13,20.63,99.99
1,2017/12/26,16:46:02,21,11.50,13.13,5.88
2,2017/12/26,16:46:32,21,14.13,20.63,99.99
As you can see here [IMAGE], the graph is showing the date and time, but the x Axis is not accepting the date / time.
Ive tried using date.UTC, but that did not work either. Can someone point me in the right direction?
https://jsfiddle.net/asvoy6b9/ [not working due to CSV missing]
Full code [Hastebin]
I see that date variable in your code is a string:
// all data lines start with a double quote
line = line.split(',');
date = line[1] + " " + line[2];
(...)
RTC.push([
date,
parseInt(line[3], 10)
]);
If you choose to construct the point's options as an array of two values and the first value is a string then it's treated as its name property (not x).
Explanation: https://www.highcharts.com/docs/chart-concepts/series
In that case Highcharts assigns subsequent integers as x values for all points (that's why there're values like 00:00:00.000 (1 Jan 1970), 00:00:00.001 etc.).
You need to parse your date to timestamp. You can use Date.UTC() (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Date/UTC) or some other function for this.
I've managed to get it working with Date.UTC using the following code:
var yyyymmdd = line[2].split("-"); //Split the date: 2017 12 16
var hhmmss = line[3].split(":"); //Split the time: 16 11 14
var date = Date.UTC(yyyymmdd[0], yyyymmdd[1] - 1, yyyymmdd[2], hhmmss[0], hhmmss[1], hhmmss[2]); //Stitch 'em together using Date.UTC

Two different formats of field in report Access 2013

I'm trying to find a way to do the following:
I want to have two different formats for a certain text box. To do so, I've done the following: User types one or two digits in a form text box(who's input and format are both "#,0;0;_") and has "yes/no" box on the right of that number field which asks if it's "kg per bag"(so by default it's the other measurement unit which is Percentages), then an OnLoad event is fired when viewing the report for that form, which checks if the yes/no value is yes or no. If "yes" then the format is set to "#.0 & " kg/bag"", if no it's set to "#.0 & " %"".
I will have to additionally divide by 100 when percentages are the ones picked, but first I want the whole thing to work... Which I still can't do!
Sadly, I'm nowhere near getting it to work... Here is my current macro on the onload event of the report, which is marked as not valid expression:
Link to the image on Imgur
Or here is the MacroBuilder Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-16" standalone="no"?>
<UserInterfaceMacros xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/accessservices/2009/11/application"><UserInterfaceMacro For="Report" Event="OnLoad"><Statements><ConditionalBlock><If><Condition>[yn]=False</Condition><Statements><Action Name="SetValue"><Argument Name="Item">[Text0].[Format]</Argument><Argument Name="Expression">#,0 & " kg/bag"</Argument></Action></Statements></If><Else><Statements><Action Name="SetValue"><Argument Name="Item">[Text0].[Format]</Argument><Argument Name="Expression">#,0 & " %"</Argument></Action></Statements></Else></ConditionalBlock></Statements></UserInterfaceMacro></UserInterfaceMacros>
Which is displayed as:
If [yn]=False Then
SetValue
Item = [text0].[format]
Expression = #,0 & " kg/bag"
Else
SetValue
Item = [text0].[format]
Expression = #,0 & " %"
End if
Can anyone give me a hint on where to go with this? Thank you!!
P.S. Comma is my decimal separator in regional settings!
You don't really need to change format only concatenate the numeric value with unit (kg/bag or %).
Using VBA, try the following code in the OnLoad event (I am assuming the recordsource field behind the text0 control is called the same -text0):
If Forms!yourformname![yn] = False Then
Reports!yourreportname!text0 = Me.text0 & " kg/bag"
Else
Reports!yourreportname!text0 = (Me.text0)/100 & "%"
' ALTERNATIVELY: Reports!yourreportname!text0.Format = "percent"
End If
Alternatively in the OnLoad event, use an embedded macro or call an external macro with the following one action (if/then changed into the IIF function):
SetValue
Item: text0
Expression: =IIF(Forms!yourformname![yn] = False, text0 & " kg/bag", text0/100 & "%")

Combine Cell Contents into another Cell

So Im working on a Spreedsheet in Google Docs, my question is: I would like to combine say columns A,B,C,ect... in column I with a space between them. I'm currently using something like this =A1&" "&B1&" "&C1&" "&ect... This works fine and dandy but if the cell is blank I would like to ignore it. Should this be done via script or formula?
So in my head I'm thinking if cell A = value then grab it and combine it with B (if that contains a value if not leave blank or skip) But I'm not good at PHP So any help would be great!!! Happy NY to everyone ; )
Here's a custom function that will return a string with the given range values joined by the given separator. Any blanks are skipped.
function joinVals( rangeValues, separator ) {
function notBlank(element) {return element != '';}
return rangeValues[0].filter(notBlank).join(separator);
}
Examples:
A B C Formula Result
1 1 2 3 =joinVals(A1:C1," x ") 1 x 2 x 3
2 1 2 =joinVals(A1:C1," x ") 1 x 2
3 1 3 =joinVals(A1:C1," x ") 1 x 3
4 1 2 3 =joinVals(A1:C1) 1,2,3
By using IF and ISBLANK you can determine whether a cell should be included, or ignored. Like this:
=if(ISBLANK(A1),"",A1 & " ")
That reads "if the cell is blank, ignore it, otherwise echo it with a trailing space." You can daisy-chain a series of those together:
=if(ISBLANK(A1),"",A1 & " ")&if(ISBLANK(B1),"",B1 & " ")&if(ISBLANK(C1),"",C1 & " ")...
That gets pretty long and repetitive. Adding ARRAYFORMULA and JOIN, we can have that repetitive piece apply across a range of cells, A1:F1 in this case:
=JOIN("",ARRAYFORMULA(IF(ISBLANK(A1:F1),"",A1:F1&" ")))
