I am very new at access and need to complete a project at work. I am not very good at sql but can understand some.
I have a table that consists of 500 product labels.
column headings are Label, description, # per roll, May 2010, June 2010 etc.
What I have is an inventory of all labels by month (starting at May 2010 to May 2011) As this is a new project I only have values for May 2010. For testing purposes I have entered a few values in June. When I make a new select query, I select the fields that I want to show and then enter the following in an empty field:
totals:[may 2010]+[june 2010]
The problem is that it only adds the values that exist in both may and june. It will not pull the values from may and enter it unless I have a 0 in the june field.
What am I doing wrong? Sorry if this is a dumb question but my books aren't giving me a clear answer.
Thanks for the help!
