    Question Formula field


    I am using linked excel sheet as table in Ms Access.

    The problem is that i want to create a field in query which tell me that a particular field has formula.

    For example IF [amount] field has formula then "Calculated", "Manual".

    syntax for the if statement would be,

    IIF([amount] = "YOUR CRITERION","Calculated","Manual")

    IIF([Field Name] = Criterion, Then do, Else)

    If it is just one formula then input the formula where it says your criterion. If there are multiple formulas try:

    IIF([amount] Like "=*", "Calculated", "Manual")
