I am running into the Max Character Issue when trying to put my IIF statement into a box I have created for the calculation of a score on my form. The box code is:
=IIf([cbov1]="na" And [cbov2]="na" And [cbov3]="na" And [cbov4]="na" And [cbov5]="na" And [cboV6]="na" And [cboV7]="na" And [cboV8]="na" And [cboV9]="na" And [cboV10]="na" And [cboV11]="na" And [cboV12]="na" And [cboV13]="na" And [cboi1]="na" And [cboi2]="na" And [cboi3]="na" And [cboi4]="na" And [cbop1]="na" And [cbop2]="na" And [cbop3]="na" And [cbop4]="na" And [cbop5]="na" And [cbop6]="na" And [cbop7]="na" And [cbop8]="na" And [cbop9]="na" And [cbop10]="na" And [cbop11]="na" And [cbof1]="na" And [cbof2]="na" And [cbof3]="na" And [cbof4]="na" And [cbof5]="na" And [cbof6]="na" And [cbof7]="na" And [cbof8]="na" And [cbof9]="na" And [cbof10]="na" And [cbom1]="na" And [cbom2]="na" And [cbom3]="na" And [cbom4]="na" And [cbom5]="na" And [cbom7]="na" And [cbom8]="na" And [cbom9]="na" And [cbom10]="na" And [cbom6]="na",0,(IIf([cboV1]="yes",0,0)+IIf([cbov2]="yes",0,0)+IIf([cbov3]="yes",0,0)+IIf([cbov4]="yes",0,0)+IIf([cbov5]="yes",0,0)+IIf([cboV6]="yes",0,0)+ IIf([cboV7]="yes",0,0)+ IIf([cboV8]="yes",0,0)+ IIf([cboV9]="yes",0,0)+ IIf([cboV10]="yes",0,0)+ IIf([cboV11]="yes",0,0)+ IIf([cboV12]="yes",0,0)+ IIf([cboV13]="yes",0,0)+IIf([cboi1]="yes",5,0)+IIf([cboi2]="yes",3,0)+IIf([cboi3]="yes",3,0)+ IIf([cboi4]="yes",4,0)+IIf([cbop1]="yes",5,0)+IIf([cbop2]="yes",5,0)+IIf([cbop3]="yes",5,0)+IIf([cbop4]="yes",5,0)+ IIf([cbop5]="yes",5,0)+ IIf([cbop6]="yes",4,0)+ IIf([cbop7]="yes",4,0)+ IIf([cbop8]="yes",4,0)+ IIf([cbop9]="yes",4,0)+ IIf([cbop10]="yes",2,0)+IIf([cbop11]="yes",2,0)+IIf([cbof1]="yes",1,0)+IIf([cbof2]="yes",1,0)+IIf([cbof3]="yes",1,0)+IIf([cbof4]="yes",1,0)+ IIf([cbof5]="yes",1,0)+ IIf([cbof6]="yes",1,0)+ IIf([cbof10]="yes",0,0)+ IIf([cbof7]="yes",3,0)+ IIf([cbof8]="yes",3,0)+ IIf([cbof9]="yes",3,0)+IIf([cbom1]="yes",5,0)+IIf([cbom2]="yes",1,0)+IIf([cbom3]="yes",1,0)+IIf([cbom4]="yes",1,0)+IIf([cbom5]="yes",1,0)+IIf([cbom6]="yes",1,0) +IIf([cbom7]="yes",3,0) +IIf([cbom8]="yes",2,0) +IIf([cbom9]="yes",5,0) +IIf([cbom10]="yes",5,0))/(IIf([cboV1]="na",0,0)+IIf([cbov2]="na",0,0)+IIf([cbov3]="na",0,0)+IIf([cbov4]="na",0,0)+IIf([cbov5]="na",0,0)+IIf([cboV6]="na",0,0)+ IIf([cboV7]="na",0,0)+ IIf([cboV8]="na",0,0)+ IIf([cboV9]="na",0,0)+ IIf([cboV10]="na",0,0)+ IIf([cboV11]="na",0,0)+ IIf([cboV12]="na",0,0)+ IIf([cboV13]="na",0,0)+IIf([cboi1]="na",0,5)+IIf([cboi2]="na",0,3)+IIf([cboi3]="na",0,3)+ IIf([cboi4]="na",0,4)+IIf([cbop1]="na",0,5)+IIf([cbop2]="na",0,5)+IIf([cbop3]="na",0,5)+IIf([cbop4]="na",0,5)+ IIf([cbop5]="na",0,5)+ IIf([cbop6]="na",0,4)+ IIf([cbop7]="na",0,4)+ IIf([cbop8]="na",0,4)+ IIf([cbop9]="na",0,4)+ IIf([cbop10]="na",0,2)+ IIf([cbop11]="na",0,2)+IIf([cbof1]="na",0,1)+IIf([cbof2]="na",0,1)+IIf([cbof3]="na",0,1)+IIf([cbof4]="na",0,1)+ +IIf([cbof5]="na",0,1)+ +IIf([cbof6]="na",0,1)+ +IIf([cbof7]="na",0,3)+ +IIf([cbof8]="na",0,3)+ +IIf([cbof9]="na",0,3)+ +IIf([cbof10]="na",0,0)+IIf([cbom1]="na",0,5)+IIf([cbom2]="na",0,1)+IIf([cbom3]="na",0,1)+IIf([cbom4]="na",0,1)+IIf([cbom5]="na",0,1)+IIf([cbom6]="na",0,1) +IIf([cbom7]="na",0,3) +IIf([cbom8]="na",0,2) +IIf([cbom9]="na",0,5) +IIf([cbom10]="na",0,5)))*(IIf([cbov1]="no" Or [cbov2]="no" Or [cbov3]="no" Or [cbov4]="no" Or [cbov5]="no" Or [cboV6]="no" Or [cboV7]="no" Or [cboV8]="no" Or [cboV9]="no" Or [cboV10]="no" Or [cboV11]="no" Or [cboV12]="no" Or [cboV13]="no",0,1))
The purpose of the score is to score "Yes" with points, Score "No" as no points, and then have "NA" remove from the overall score. So if a person has 67 out of 67 points, they get a 100. The maximum points is 100 if all questions are answered "Yes" or "No". I need to have all portions of the calculation because CBOV1-13 have a stipulation of if they are "No" the score is automatically 0%.
I don't know of a work around for the MAX CHARACTER you get within the expression builder on the Control Source box via the properties sheet.
Any help on a work around for this issue or ways to make the code shorten and fit with the same end result would be a huge help.
First, I would be tempted to have my field as a numeric (0,1,2 instead of "na,Yes,No"
Then you could use addition...IIF{cvb01 + Cvb02 +cvb03 = 0, 0 ,...else
Using Strings
I can think of two ways. One in the formula using concatenation (ugly)
IIF[cvb01] & [cvb02] & [cvb03] = "NANANA", 0 , ...Else)
I would be more tempted to write a function to take care of it.
dim NAcount as integer
Dim YesCount as integer
Dim NoCount as integer
dim ctr as integer
dim StrAns as string
for ctr = 1 to 10
StrAns = Fields ("cvb" & Ctr)
Select case StrAns
Case "NA"
NaCount = NACount + 1
'...add values here
Case "Yes"
'...more values go here
Case "No"
'... more values
End Select
Next Ctr
...
I'm looking for a function or solution to the following:
For the chart in SQL Reporting i need to multiply values from a Column A. For summation i would use =SUM(COLUMN_A) for the chart. But what can i use for multiplication - i was not able to find a solution so far?
Currently i am calculating the value of the stacked column as following:
=ROUND(SUM(Fields!Value_Is.Value)/SUM(Fields!StartValue.Value),3)
Instead of SUM i need something to multiply the values.
Something like that:
=ROUND(MULTIPLY(Fields!Value_Is.Value)/MULTIPLY(Fields!StartValue.Value),3)
EDIT #1
Okay tried to get this thing running.
The expression for the chart looks like this:
=Exp(Sum(Log(IIf(Fields!Menge_Ist.Value = 0, 10^-306, Fields!Menge_Ist.Value)))) / Exp(Sum(Log(IIf(Fields!Startmenge.Value = 0, 10^-306, Fields!Startmenge.Value))))
If i calculate my 'needs' manually i have to get the following result:
In my SQL Report i get the following result:
To make it easier, these are the raw values:
and you have the possibility to group the chart by CW, CQ or CY
(The values from the first pictures are aggregated Sum values from the raw values by FertStufe)
EDIT #2
Tried your expression, which results in this:
Just to make it clear:
The values in the column
=Value_IS / Start_Value
in the first picture are multiplied against each other
0,9947 x 1,0000 x 0,59401 = 0,58573
Diffusion Calenderweek 44 Sums
Startvalue: 1900,00 Value Is: 1890,00 == yield:0,99474
Waffer unbestrahlt Calenderweek 44 Sums
Startvalue: 620,00 Value Is: 620,00 == yield 1,0000
Pellet Calenderweek 44 Sums
Startvalue: 271,00 Value Is: 160,00 == yield 0,59041
yield Diffusion x yield Wafer x yield Pellet = needed Value in chart = 0,58730
EDIT #3
The raw values look like this:
The chart ist grouped - like in the image - on these fields
CY (Calendar year), CM (Calendar month), CW (Calendar week)
You can download the data as xls here:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/g0yrzo3330adgem/2013-01-17_data.xls
The expression i use (copy / past from the edit window)
=Exp(Sum(Log(Fields!Menge_Ist.Value / Fields!Startmenge.Value)))
I've exported the whole report result to excel, you can get it here:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/uogdh9ac2onuqh6/2013-01-17_report.xls
it's actually a workaround. But I am pretty sure is the only solution for this infamous problem :D
This is how I did:
Exp(∑(Log(X))), so what you should do is:
Exp(Sum(Log(Fields!YourField.Value)))
Who said math was worth nothing? =D
EDIT:
Corrected the formula.
By the way, it's tested.
Addressing Ian's concern:
Exp(Sum(Log(IIf(Fields!YourField.Value = 0, 10^-306, Fields!YourField.Value))))
The idea is change 0 with a very small number. Just an idea.
EDIT:
Based on your updated question this is what you should do:
Exp(Sum(Log(Fields!Value_IS.Value / Fields!Start_Value.Value)))
I just tested the above code and got the result you hoped for.
I have a report that should read values from 2 dataset by Currency:
Dataset1: Production Total
Dataset2: Net Total
Ive tried to use:
Lookup(Fields!Currency_Type.Value,
Fields!Currency_Type1.Value,
Fields!Gross_Premium_Amount.Value,
"DataSet2")
This returns only the first amount from dataset 2.
I've tried Lookupset function as well but it didn't SUM the retrieved values.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks Jamie for the reply.
THis is what i have done and it worked perfect:
From Report Properties--> Code , write the below function:
Function SumLookup(ByVal items As Object()) As Decimal
If items Is Nothing Then
Return Nothing
End If
Dim suma As Decimal = New Decimal()
Dim ct as Integer = New Integer()
suma = 0
ct = 0
For Each item As Object In items
suma += Convert.ToDecimal(item)
Next
If (ct = 0) Then return 0 else return suma
End Function
Then you can call the function:
code.SumLookup(LookupSet(Fields!Currency_Type.Value, Fields!Currency_Type1.Value,Fields!Gross_Premium_Amount.Value, "DataSet2"))
Yes, Lookup will only return the first matching value. Three options come to mind:
Change your query, so that you only need to get one value: use a GROUP BY and SUM(...) to combine your two rows in the query. If you are using this query other places, then make a copy and change that.
Is there some difference in the rows? Such as one is for last year and one is for this year? If so, create an artificial lookup key and lookup the two values separately:
=Lookup(Fields!Currency_Type.Value & ","
& YEAR(DATEADD(DateInterval.Year,-1,today())),
Fields!Currency_Type1.Value & ","
& Fields!Year.Value,
Fields!Gross_Premium_Amount.Value,
"DataSet2")
+
Lookup(Fields!Currency_Type.Value & ","
& YEAR(today()),
Fields!Currency_Type1.Value & ","
& Fields!Year.Value,
Fields!Gross_Premium_Amount.Value,
"DataSet2")
Use the LookupSet function as mentioned. With this you'll get a collection of the values back, and then need to add those together. The easiest way to do this is with embedded code in the report. Add this function to the report's code:
Function AddList(ByVal items As Object()) As Double
If items Is Nothing Then
Return 0
End If
Dim Total as Double
Total = 0
For Each item As Object In items
Total = Total + CDbl(item)
Next
Return Total
End Function
Now call that with:
=Code.AddList(LookupSet(Fields!Currency_Type.Value,
Fields!Currency_Type1.Value,
Fields!Gross_Premium_Amount.Value,
"DataSet2"))
(Note: this code was not tested. I just composed it in the Stack Overflow edit window & I'm no fan of VB. But it should give you a good idea of what to do.)
