I've often said it's no fun at all to argue with people with whom you really truly disagree -- it's only fun when you're 90% in agreement. Well, I can't argue with that ...

wrote: I have a spreadsheet that has UPC # but each numer is in a cell. In our ERP system it's listed as one number. I want to vailidate that it's entered correctly in ERP system. I pulled in the spreadsheet and concatenated the cells (with help from Ken on this message board). In a new query I linked the query above to the part master field in our ERP system. I want to subtract them and, if entered problerly, the difference = 0. That part works. Now I want to have it only return results when they are 0 (only those that are incorrectly entered into the ERP system). When I put in 0 in the criteria it tells me there is a data mismatch! So... are you subtracting the UPC Numbers? or are you subtracting the number of rows? If you're concatenating multiple number fields, the result is a Text field, NOT A NUMBER, and you will get an error. Please post the SQL view of the query you're using now. -- John W. Vinson [MVP] |
