I'm working on a judging database. Judges enter scores in different 5 categories. These categories could be equal in weight (20% each) but I needed the option to alter the weight in each category.
This weight % changes based on who uses this database so I created a table with one record to hold the "weighted %" so it can be changed as required. I named the table PERCENTAGE with number fields for each category like TALENT, MEMORY, etc.
I created an Update Query where all the judges scores were added together and multiplied by a fixed weighted percentage.
Code:
(([judge1].[talentscore]+[judge2].[talentscore]+[judge3].[talentscore])*.22)
What I need is to replace the fixed .22 with the weight % in the PERCENTAGE database. I tried the following but it does not find the value in the PERCENTAGE table.
Code:
(([judge1].[talentscore]+[judge2].[talentscore]+[judge3].[talentscore])*[percentage].[talent])
How do I get the value of the TALENT field in the single record of the PERCENTAGE database?
Thanks
