I have a strange issue. I am using the German regional setting of Windows and when I use the following SQL in Access <br />
<br />
&nbsp;Set rst = dbs.OpenRecordset(&quot;Select * From tblImportBankFinal Where LinkId=&quot; &amp;&nbsp;Val(Me.cmbKonto.Column(2))<wbr /> &amp;&nbsp;&quot; AND Not bReconciled AND bDate=&quot; &amp;&nbsp;cSql(rstBuchungen!bDate) &amp;&nbsp;&quot; AND ABS(bSaldo)=&quot; &amp;&nbsp;Abs(rstBuchungen!bAmtLoc))<wbr /><br />
<br />
I do get the following error:<br />
<br />
Syntax error (comma) in query expression “LinkId=106 AND Not bReconciled and ABS(bSaldo)=262,35”<br />
<br />
The number is the correct German number decimal format. I have tried to convert to string etc but it does not help as it that case the coma is lost. Any help is really appreciated.

ABS with regional settings does not work for decimals

Microsoft Access is a rapid application development (RAD) relational database tool. Access can be used for both desktop and web-based applications, and uses VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) as its coding language.

Microsoft Access

Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) enables building user-defined functions (UDFs), automating processes and accessing Windows API and other low-level functionality through dynamic-link libraries (DLLs). VBA is closely related to Visual Basic and uses the Visual Basic Runtime Library, but it can normally only run code within a host application rather than as a standalone program. It can, however, be used to control one application from another via OLE Automation. VBA is built into most Microsoft Office applications.
