The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

DLookUp with multiple criteria VBA

Asked by AIdoHSG in Access Coding/Macros, Access Forms

Hello,

I'm trying to if a user name exists in a table over the past 4 weeks...
I'm creating this database to update our contact information and in order to make more engaging we are developing a point system which can be used to trade for other things.
The first step of the code is to check the user name if the user name has a manager name then the code stops
Then the code checks if today is Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday if it is not then the code stops
Then it checks if the current date is checked against the tblWinners_ResOps table to make sure that there is no winner this week
Then it checks whether the user has won over past 4 weeks (this is not working), but if it is true then the code stops
Finally if all the above come back false then a random number is generated and compared against 17 (lucky number) if they both equal each other then the user wins.

Can you tell me if my DLookUP is wrong and what am I doing wrong...

Thank you,
