HÀM TỔNG:

Access: Sum
Function
In Access, the Sum function returns the sum of a set of values in a set of values in a select
query.

The syntax for the Sum function is:

Sum ( expression )

The expression argument represents a string expression identifying the field that contains the
numeric data you want to add or an expression that performs a calculation using the data in
that field. Operands in expr can include the name of a table field, a constant, or a function
(not one of the other SQL aggregate functions). The Sum function totals the values in a field.
It ignores records that contain Null fields.

SQL query
In Access, you can use the Sum function in the query design grid, in an SQL statement in
SQL view of the Query window, or in an SQL statement within Visual Basic code. It is used in
conjunction with the Group By clause.

EXAMPLE:

Select SellerID, Sum(Price) as TotalSum

From Antiques
Group by SellerID
Having Sum(Price)>57

HÀM ASC:

Access: Asc
Function
In Access, the Asc function returns an integer representing the ANSI code corresponding to
the first character in a string.

The syntax for the Asc function is:

Asc ( string )

The required string argument is any valid string expression. If the string contains no
characters, a run-time error occurs. If more than one character is entered, the function will
return the value for the first character and ignore all of the characters after the first.

Example
Asc ( "a" ) returns 97

Asc ( "A" ) returns 65

Asc ( "apple" ) returns 97

VBA Code
Dim MyNumber
MyNumber = Asc("A")
This example returns 65, the ANSI character code for an uppercase
letter A. Now the MyNumber variable would contain the value 65.

SQL query
You can also use the Asc function in a query.

SELECT Asc('A') AS Expr1

FROM Orders

HÀM ASB:

Access: Abs
Function
In Access, the Abs funtion returns the absolute value of a number.

The syntax for the Abs function is:

Abs( number )

The argument number can be any valid numeric expression. If number contains Null, Null is
returned. The absolute value of a number is its unsigned magnitude. For example, ABS(-1)
and ABS(1) both return 1.

Example
Abs (-1.45) returns 1,45

Abs (2.17) returns 2,17

VBA Code
Dim MyNumber
MyNumber = Abs(42.7)
MyNumber = Abs(-42.7)
This example uses the Abs function to compute the absolute value of
a number. Now the MyNumber variable would contain the value 42.7.

SQL query
You can also use the Abs function in a query.

SELECT Abs([Salary]) AS Expr1

FROM EmployeeStatisticsTable

HÀM ATN:

In Access, the Atn function returns a double containing the arctangent of a number.

The syntax for the Atn function is:

Atn( number )

The required number argument can be any valid numeric expression. The Atn function takes
the ratio of two sides of a right triangle (number) and returns the corresponding angle in
radians. The ratio is the length of the side opposite the angle divided by the length of the
side adjacent to the angle.

Example
Atn (15) returns 1,50422816301907

Atn (21) returns 1,52321322351791

VBA Code
Dim MyNumber As Double

MyNumber = Atn(2)
This example uses the Atn function to calculate the arctangent of a
number. Now the MyNumber variable would contain the value 1,10714871779409.

SQL query
You can also use the Atn function in a query.

FROM Orders

HÀM AVG:

Access: Avg
function
In Access, the Avg function calculates the arithmetic mean of a set of values in a select
query.

The syntax for the Avg function is:

Avg ( expression )

The expression argument represents a string expression identifying the field that contains
the numeric data you want to average. Operands in expression can include the name of a
table field, a constant, or a function (not one of the other SQL aggregate functions). The
average calculated by Avg is the arithmetic mean (the sum of the values divided by the
number of values). You could use Avg, for example, to calculate average freight cost.The Avg
function doesn't include any Null fields in the calculation.

SQL query
In Access, you can use the Avg function in the query design grid, in an SQL statement in
SQL view of the Query window, or in an SQL statement within Visual Basic code. It is used in
conjunction with the Group By clause.

SELECT Position, Avg(Salary) AS AvgSalary

FROM EmployeeStatisticsTable
GROUP BY Position

CHOOSE FUNCTION:

Access: Choose
Function
In Access, the Choose function selects and returns a value from a list of arguments based on
a given position.

The syntax for the Choose function is:

Choose(index, choice-1[,choice-2, ... [, choice-n]] )

You can use Choose to look up a value in a list of possibilities. If index is 1, Choose returns
the first choice in the list; if index is 2, it returns the second choice, and so on. The Choose
function returns a Null if index is less than 1 or greater than the number of choices listed.

index is position number in the list of values to return.

choice is variant expression containing one of the possible choices.

Example
Choose(1, "Have", "a", "nice", "day") returns "Have"

Choose(3, "Have", "a", "nice", "day") returns "nice"

Choose(4, "Have", "a", "nice", "day") returns "day"

Choose(7, "Have", "a", "nice", "day") returns NULL
Choose(2.87, "Have", "a", "nice", "day") returns "a"
VBA Code
Dim MyChoice As String
MyChoice = Choose(2, "Apple", "Orange", "Strawberry")
This example uses the Choose
function to display a fruits name in response to an index. Now the MyChoice variable would
contain the value "Orange".

SQL query
You can also use the Choose function in a query.

SELECT Choose([OwnerID],'Table','Desc','Chair','Mirrow') AS Expr1

FROM Orders

HÀM Chr:

Access: Chr
Function
In Access the Chr function returns the character associated with the specified ANSI code.

The syntax for the Chr function is:

Chr ( charcode )

The required charcode argument is the NUMBER used to retrieve the character. The
argument charcode is an integer between 0 and 255, inclusive. Applications for Microsoft
Windows use the ANSI character set. ANSI character codes in the range 0 to 31, inclusive,
are the same as the standard, nonprintable ASCII codes. For example, Chr(13) returns a
carriage-return character, and Chr(10) returns a linefeed character. Together they can be
used to force a new line when message strings are formatted with MsgBox or InputBox.

Example
Chr( 65 ) returns "A"

Chr( 97 ) returns "a"

VBA Code
Dim MyChar
MyChar = Chr(100)
This example returns "d", the character associated with the specified
character code. Now the MyChar variable would contain the value "d".

The required expression argument represents a string expression identifying the field that
contains the data you want to count or an expression that performs a calculation using the
data in the field. Operands in expression can include the name of a table field or function
(not other SQL aggregate functions). You can count any kind of data, including text. The
Count function doesn't count records that have Null fields unless expression is the asterisk
(*) wildcard character. If you use an asterisk, Count calculates the total number of records,
including those that contain Null fields.

SQL query
In Access, you can use the Count function in the query design grid, in an SQL statement in
SQL view of the Query window, or in an SQL statement within Visual Basic code. It is used in
