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.

calculate monthly trend from sql query

Asked by j2jake in Access Coding/Macros, Microsoft Access Database, SQL Query Syntax

Tags: access, sql, monthly, trend, calculate

Hi Experts!

My project will ask the user for year and month, then it will show the last 4 months from the month and year chosen. So it will display a 5-month report. I have been able to formulate the query through the help of experts here. The next thing is to calculate the monthly trend and yearly average.

Here is an example:

If the user picks 2009 January. The result would show the months of Sep 2008, Oct 2008, Nov 2008, Dec 2008 and Jan 2009. Then calculate the monthly trend which is the current month, Jan 2009 divided by the average of the last 4 months. Another trend is divide the current month from the last month - Jan 2009 / Dec 2008. Same thing with the yearly average.

I have been able to query the 5 months but need help with calculating the trends from the months that have been fetched by the query. Any suggestions how should I start?
