Access 2013: Sum fields on a form suddenly showing up blank

I have a simple Access database (originally built in 2010, now running 2013). Sometime in the last week or so all of the SUM fields in the database started showing up BLANK (one minute everything was working fine, the next it wasn't, not sure what happened
in between). Even when I create a new, basic form, I can't seem to get my SUM fields working.
For example, I have a table where I document number of miles traveled for work purposes, the fields include: TravelDate, ProjectID, Mileage, and Description. Mileage is a Number field, Long Integer. If I create a continuous form, connect it to the table
(same thing happens if I connect to a query), add a field in the Detail section with
Mileage as control source and txtMileage as name and a field in the FORM FOOTER that is: =Sum([txtMileage])...the SUM field is empty in
Form View. And, there are no NULL values in the data set. This is happening across all of my forms and subforms, all SUM fields are now displaying as blank.
Is it possible that I changed a global Access setting to cause this? A form setting? Any other ideas?
Thanks!
Laura

I had the same sudden issue. But I was able to determine that it involved only one workstation. All the others were fine, as well as a test run on another Win 8 station outside the environment. From there I was able to determine that  a third party
app had been installed near the time of the problem showing up. I uninstalled it and it immediately was resolved. The app was a C# based tool thought the authors have yet to identify why this caused a problem. My suspicion is that they wrote a 32 bit version
and this was installed on a 64 bit station, and there is some issue with mso.dll, where I believe the function calls exist for sum. I am testing to see if there are similar function errors in Excel.
What is noticeable was that Access did not throw a an Error# nor a #name. Just nothing appeared, and when you click on a row, the sum would appear, though it was incorrect.
In Access 2010 I remember there were some footer field issues in continuous which eventually were patched.
It was an opportunity to remind my client - do not install anything from any one on the live system without prior testing.

  • Some fields from InfoPath form not showing up in Sharepoint

    I created an InfoPath form containing a checklist that sends data to an InfoPath document library in Sharepoint 2010.
    Most of the fields that I have linked to the sharepoint transfer their data just fine, but 2 of the fields come out blank in SharePoint.
    I have attempted the following fixes to no avail:
    Created site column and linked to it
    Deleted column and had Infopath create a column in the library
    The fields are not identically formatted either.  Both are single item drop down lists, one is populated by an external data source (sharepoint list) and the other has manual list values.  Both fields have other fields in the form that are formatted
    identically and work just fine.
    help!

    Do the choice items match up in the form to the options available in the list?

  • How can I Validate all fields of the form and show validation summary?

    Hello,
    I am building a dynamic form with livecycle. I need to implement two fetures:
    1. Show the user all invalid fields of the form when he tries to submit it (show him validation summary) and guide him to correct the errors.
    2. Remove the highlight frame from mandatory fields after user enters his input.
    Thanks a lot in advance,
    Peter.

    Okey once more a try...
    Normally you don't get a list of the fields that didn't pass the validation. So, you have to script the list by yourself!
    If you put the validation script in the exit field that means if the user doesn't enter the field, the script won't be executed.
    You could make an additional script into presave, presubmit, validate or whatever that will force the user to go to the field.
    For example make a field only mandatory if the user doesn't enter anything.
    Way to make mandatory fields that won't be shown if the user had provided response
    if (this.rawValue == null) {
    this.validate.nullTest = "error";
    this.edge.color.value = "255,0,0";
    this.assist.toolTip.value = "This field is mandatory, please provide a response...";
    xfa.layout.relayout();
    else {
    this.validate.nullTest = "disabled";
    this.border.edge.color.value = "255,255,255";
    this.assist.toolTip.value = "This field is optional...";
    xfa.layout.relayout();
    Will JUST get mandatory if the user doesn't provide response. (Is an older script I got here and changed slightly for you.)
    Do the parts in the event that should "fire" them. Probably divide it into two parts with two if statements instead of the else...
    Think good about the event!
    Way to make a list of what things the user has forgotten!
    You can make an invisible TextField that will be shown AND populated if the user tries to submit something invalid.
    Calculate Event of the Textfield:
    this.rawValue = " "
    if (Dezimalfeld1.rawValue == null)
    {this.rawValue = this.rawValue + "*Please enter something into Dezimalfield1, Page1,...                                                    ";}
    if (Dezimalfeld2.rawValue == null)
    {this.rawValue = this.rawValue + "*Please enter something into Dezimalfield1, Page1,...                                                    ";}
    (Of course you've got to name the fields exactly.
    All scripts are JAVASCRIPT!)

  • Accessing user defined fields when multiple forms as open SBO 2005

    Hi
    I have a program which updates a user defined field on the sales order screen. This works fine but fails to work correctly when they have more than one sales order screen open.
    It updates the first sales order screen and not the active one.
    Is there any easy way of accessing the correct user defined form which is attached to the active screen please ?
    Code below -
                For lc = 0 To B1Connections.theAppl.Forms.Count - 1
                    If B1Connections.theAppl.Forms.Item(lc).TypeEx = "-139" Then

  • Lync 2013 - Delegates are all of a sudden showing up in contacts list

    All of a sudden, folks are seeing Delegates displaying in their Lync 2013 contacts list. 
    We never had enterprise voice enabled in our environment.  Recently, I ran Windows updates on the 2012 R2 DC's.
    Suggestions?
    Should I set "EnableDelegation" to False so that folks won't see any Delegates in their contacts list?
    Thanks
    Ron

    Hi Ron,
    Based on my understanding, Lync syncs the information from Outlook.
    You can try running the following command to disable synchronization.
    Set-CsclientPolicy –EnableExchangeDelegateSync $false
    Hope it can be helpful.
    Best regards,

  • HT204053 Since I completed the last iPad update I no longer have access to history. That tab in favorites shows a blank page.

    That tab on favorites page opens a blank page. Does have anything to do with private browsing?

    If you are using private browsing then yes, your browsing history will not be stored or accessible - you will need to exit private browsing. From the iPad manual :
    Visit sites without making history. Tap Private while viewing your open pages or bookmarks. Sites you visit will no longer be added to History on your iPad.

  • Windows Task Bar Icon (Access 2013)

    This is my first database I created from scratch in Access 2013, and I am not sure how to change my Windows Task Bar Icon use the Application Icon.  Not a huge deal, but to keep consistency between my systems, it would be nice to resolve.  
    How does one get Access 2013 to use the Application Icon to show in the Windows Task Bar when the program is launched?

    Hi Mark,
    >> it wasn't a big issue, it is just by assigning an Icon in Access 2010, the application magically had that same icon on the task bar showing open programs.<<
    Based on my test, the icon in Windows Task Bar will not change after I assign an icon for Access 2010. I tested in Access 2010 on Windows 7, here is the screenshot for your reference:

  • Does Access 2013 Web App support multi-value lookup fields?

    I hope someone can please help me with this as I've not been able to find the answer by searching this site, nor elsewhere on the web. I have Access 2013 open connected to my web app on Sharepoint Skydrive with a table open in 'edit table' mode. When I add
    a new lookup field I don't see any option to make it a multi-value lookup field. Is there no support for that in web apps or am I doing something wrong?
    Cheers, Henk.
    Cheers, Henk.

    This is what I use in the Parent RowSource:
    This in the parent child relationship
    In the row source query from the child, I have a simular expression. By inverting the boolean 'childToggler' I can force the child-form to requery. Because the boolean is in the session table record (which is part of the child form recordsource query as
    well), the boolean will be inverted in both and won't disrupt the relationship.
    Besides the toggler this relationship only contains an ID with preceding zero's, but the expression can contain pretty much everything. 

  • InfoPath 2013 customized forms no longer working after linking Sharepoint 2010 list to MS Access 2013 database

    Hello,
    I am having trouble with my infopath form now that I have linked my Sharepoint list to an Access database.  
    Background:  I created a simple SharePoint list and a few workflows to have users submit requests for changes to my organization's EMR system and have those requests be approved by the appropriate manager/department.  I used
    InfoPath to customize my form so that it would hide/show different portions depending on what the user selected.  The form has 3 views: NewItem, EditItem, ViewItem. 
    Issue: The form and workflows were working great until I linked my SharePoint list to an access database so that I could run queries and reports using that information. Now when I click "Add New Item" on my Sharepoint site,
    the correct form opens but the fields do not allow me to input any data and some of the formatting for the form has changed (ie: the text boxe fields are no longer centered.  I opened the form in InfoPath and it displays perfectly fine in there but
    not once it's published to the site) . 
    The only way that I've been able to input new data is using Datasheet view in SharePoint.  
    Is there a way to fix this issue?  I really need to be able to have the customized forms for users to fill out the information since most users are not familiar enough with SharePoint to expect them to be able to use Datasheet view to submit their requests. 
    Again, I'm using InfoPath 2013, Access 2013 & SharePoint Server 2010
    If the issue cannot be fixed, how can I disconnect or unlink my SharePoint list from the Access database because when I cliecked on "delete list" from inside Access, a warning popped up stating that it will also delete the list off of SharePoint
    as well.  If I can get the list back to the state it was in before linking to Access then I'll be happy enough to export it excel and then importh the excel file to Access as a work around for reporting purposes since I don't have to run the reports that
    often. 
    Any insight would be very helpful!!

    Hi Bostic,
    I tested the same scenario per your post in my environment, however the InfoPath form was not affected if I used the list as external data in Access database.
    The issue may be due to the browser you used.
    I recommend to verify the things below:
    Change another browser to see how it works.
    Add the site to the trusted zone and add to compatibility settings in Internet Explorer.
    Test with a new list to narrow down the issue scope.
    As a workaround, you can save the list as a template including content, and then create a new list based on this template.

  • Fields missing from dbo.MSP_EpmProject_UserView when connected via ODBC to Access 2013

    Odd things here ---
    Both the dbo.MSP_EpmProject_UserView and the MSP_EpmProject tables, are missing a number of fields including: ProjectName; ProjectAuthorName; ProjectManagerName, etc.   Looked in the schema to make sure I wasn't crazy, and they are listed there
    just like in 2007.
    Using Project Server 2013 (on-prem) and Access 2013.   
    Suggestions?

    Hello,
    I've not tried from Access before so cant comment on that but I assume if you connect using Excel 2013 the data and columns are correct?

  • Access to fields of a form through IAC

    Hello everyone!
    I created with Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES2 (included with Adobe Acrobat X Pro) an example form with several fields.
    After that I wanted to access the fields through the Acrobat SDK's Interapplication Communication (IAC) capability by using OLE.
    As programming language I choose C# from the .NET framework. But the only field that I could access was the signature field and only when it was signed. I could not figure out the mistake. Is my code wrong? Or is the created form wrong? Can somebody help?
    The code that I used:
    Acrobat.AcroApp app = null;
    Acrobat.AcroAVDoc avdoc;
    AFORMAUTLib.AFormApp formApp;
    AFORMAUTLib.IFields fields;
    app = new Acrobat.AcroApp();
    avdoc = new Acrobat.AcroAVDocClass();avdoc.Open(@"Form.pdf", null);
    formApp = new AFORMAUTLib.AFormApp();
    fields = formApp.Fields;
    int fieldsCount = fields.Count;
    foreach (var item in fields)
      AFORMAUTLib.IField field = (AFORMAUTLib.IField)item;
        result = field.Name + " = " + field.Value + "[" + field.Type + "]";

    Yes, if the form is Reader Enabled, then a Reader user can add a graphic as the icon of a button via scripting to an AcroForm.

  • Can't access a value stored in a form text field

    I created a small test page to try and understand how a piece of javascript works, well actually it's not working. All I'm trying to do is display the value entered in a text field in a form and it's failing with 
    SCRIPT5007: Unable to get value of the property 'value': object is null or undefined 
    temp.php, line 39 character 1
    The line it's failing on is this
    x = document.getElementById("otherChoice").value;
    The page can be seen here www.hollisterairshow.com/temp.php
    I just don't understand why it thinks the text field is undefined when it clearly is. I'm using DW CS4 and IE9.
    Thanks for any pointers you might have.
    Tony

    Thank you so much, I've been struggling with this for almost a week now.
    Just to complete the answer, I had to assign an ID to the text field and also to the "Other" button so that the JS could access both when it moved the value from the text field to the Button which was the original problem I was trying to solve.
    Thanks again for the assistance, much appreciated.
