You use an update query to modify the data in one or more existing fields in a database. For example, you can replace values or delete them entirely. This table demonstrates some ways to use expressions in update queries.
You use these expressions in the Update To row in the query design grid for the field that you want to update. For more information about creating update queries, see the article Create and run an update query.
Every query that you create in query Design view can also be expressed by using SQL. The following table shows sample SQL statements that employ an expression. Calculates the average extended price for orders for which the value in the ExtendedPrice field is more than , and displays it in a field named Average Extended Price. In a field named CountOfProductID, displays the total number of products for categories with more than 10 products.
The two most common ways to use expressions in tables are to assign a default value and to create a validation rule. When you design a database, you might want to assign a default value to a field or control. Access then supplies the default value when a new record containing the field is created or when an object that contains the control is created.
The expressions in the following table represent the sample default values for a field or control. If a control is bound to a field in a table, and the field has a default value, the default value of the control takes precedence. New York, N. Note that you must enclose the value in quotation marks if it includes punctuation. A zero-length string to indicate that, by default, this field should be empty instead of containing a null value. You can create a validation rule for a field or control by using an expression.
Access then enforces the rule when data is entered into the field or control. To create a validation rule, you modify the ValidationRule property of the field or control. You should also consider setting the ValidationText property, which holds the text that Access displays when the validation rule is violated. If you don't set the ValidationText property, Access displays a default error message.
The examples in the following table demonstrate the validation rule expressions for the ValidationRule property and the associated text for the ValidationText property. For more information about validating data, see the article Create a validation rule to validate data in a field.
In some cases, you might want to carry out an action or series of actions in a macro only if a particular condition is true. For example, suppose you want an action to run only when the value of the Counter text box is You use an expression to define the condition in the Condition column of the macro:. As with the ValidationRule property, the Condition column expression is a conditional expression.
It must resolve to either a True or False value. The action takes place only when the condition is true. Tip To force Access to temporarily ignore an action, type False as a condition. This can be helpful when you are trying to find problems in a macro.
The value of the ShippedDate field on the form from which the macro is run is no earlier than 2-Feb and no later than 2-Mar The FirstName value on the form from which the macro is run is null has no value. This expression is equivalent to [FirstName] Is Null. The value in the CountryRegion field on the form from which the macro is run is UK, and the value of the TotalOrds field on the SalesTotals form is greater than The value in the CountryRegion field on the form from which the macro is run is either France, Italy, or Spain, and the postal code is not 5 characters long.
You click OK in a dialog box that the MsgBox function displays. If you click Cancel in the dialog box, Access ignores the action. Use the Expression Builder. Introduction to expressions.

TypeCode: Right [AssetCode], 2. AreaCode: Mid [Phone],2,3. MinusThirty: Date - In "Canada", "UK". Ordinarily, fields are optional, which means a sloppy person can leave a lot of blank values. These blank values are called nulls, and you need to handle them carefully. If you want to write a filter condition that catches null values, simply type this text into the criteria box:.
This condition matches any fields that are left blank. Use this on the CustomerID field in the Orders table to find any orders that aren't linked to a customer. Or ignore unlinked records by reversing the condition, like so:. Sometimes, you don't want to specifically search for or ignore null values. Instead, you want to swap those values with something more meaningful to the task at hand.
Fortunately, there's an oddly named tool for just this task: the Nz function. The Nz function takes two arguments.
