If statement not return True when it should based on the data

I have a complex IF Statement within VBA

when I step thru the code the if statement variables should return true but instead treats it as False. See '>>>> this happens on the 2nd Pass of a Do Loop Statement, the First Loop the if Statement Returns True

Variable Values:

Record 1
contractNo: 00001634
nfld: 33.40%
nTier6: 30.00%

Record 2
contractNo: 00001634
nfld: 137.52%
nTier6: 28.50%

so the 2nd if should be true but it acts as false an moves to next If statement.

               
If nfld = Format(0, "Percent") Then
                    nOvrAmt = 0
                    BkOvrCalc = nOvrAmt
                               GoTo cont:
  '>>>              ElseIf nfld > nTier6 Then
                    nOvrAmt = rs.Fields("TotalNetUSExp") * rs1.Fields("T6E").Value
                    BkOvrCalc = nOvrAmt
                    GoTo cont:
                
                ElseIf nfld < nTier6 Then
                   For nTr = 1 To 4
                       'determine which Tier value to use
                       nTierNo = "Tier" & nTr
                       strNextField = "Tier" & nTr + 1

                            nfld1 = Format(rs.Fields(nTierNo).Value, "Percent")
                            nfld2 = Format(rs.Fields(strNextField).Value, "Percent")

Hi

Which data type have nfld & nTier6 if they are strings it could produce this error

you should convert to numbers before testing them

Regards

Karen Schaefer

ASKER

they are actually a Percent is there a datatype I should use instead of string?

Also note the I am retrieving the actual field Name prior to gettng the actual value. Does this come in to play with the varialbes note reading the data correctly?

I changed the nfld, nfld2, etc to Double and we were on the same page I removed the format from the string value of the nfld, etc.

However, some of the values of the fields are numbers to exponential.

How would you recommend handling values like : 7.87772796174584E-02

Rgonzo1971

Hi,

It is just a representation, it is 0.07877... or if you want 7.877%

I figured out the typemismatch on closing I have the

set rs = nothing before the rs.close, etc.

However I still not getting the IF statements to return the correct true or false

It gets stuck in a loop and then crashes the mdb.

Ok I really need some help with the entire looping of the proper records.

Atleast I got the Field type working - no more mismatch issues.

Still having issues with the entire code and the order of the loops/if statements - I will post new question.

thanks for your input.
