Switch
Not getting the results I expect from the below Switch Function.
Given: [TQM]![acb] = -1529 [TQM]![qstq] = 12261 AOD: Switch([TQM]![acb]-[TQM]![qstq]=0,1, ([TQM]![acb]-[TQM]![qstq]*-1)[TQM]![qstq],2, (([TQM]![acb]-[TQM]![qstq])*-1)[TQM]![qstq],3) Result is AOD = 3 Not making sense... (-1529 - 12261)*-1 is not less than 12261 What am I missing? thanks!

Switch
Hi shank,
I type the following in the Immediate window and got Null as a result: ?switch(-1529-12261=0,1,(-1529-12261*-1)12261,2,((-1529-12261)*-1)12261,3) Null Did I miss something?

(-1529 - 12261)*-1 is not less than 12261 What am I missing? I think you are missing a set of parensthesis in the second condition. OTOH, your condition expressions are not intuitive to me. Assuming that condition 2 was supposed to be: (([TQM]![acb]-[TQM]![qstq])*-1)[TQM]![qstq] I would prefer to use: Switch(acb = qstq,1, acb 0,2, acb 0,3) So I would expect tthe result to be 2 and I have no idea how you could get 3 unless the data values are not what you said they are. -- Marsh MVP [MS Access]
