Hello,
<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
I am trying to build a query in Access that replicates a procedure I am currently performing in Excel. The problem with Excel is that I'm working with 500,000+ rows, so the procedure takes forever to process.
<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
The procedure I use removes any row from the table that sums to zero, or at one time summed to zero.
<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
Here is the table in cell A1:

The formula to find the zero sums in cell D2 is =SUMIF($A$2:A2,A2,$C$2:C2)
<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
The formula to indicate which rows are a part of a zero sum cell E2 is =IF(COUNTIFS(D2:D$15,0,A2:$A$15,A2)>=1,"XXX","")
<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
After these formulas process, I simply remove all the rows that have XXX in column E.
<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
Any ideas on how to translate this procedure into an Access query?
<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
<o:p>Thanks!</o:p>

Pivot Table Drill Down
Double-click any number in a pivot table to create a new report showing all detail rows that make up that number
I might for a query, but my stronger suit is VBA if this will work for you. I am not exactly sure of your formula since it has been a very long time since I've used Excel formulas, but the general structure would be as follows:

<code>
dim db as dao.database
dim rst as dao.recordset

set db = currentdb
set rst = db.openrecordset("table_name")

with rst

do while not .eof

if <insert formula here with ! at the beginning of column names> then

docmd.setwarnings (false)
docmd.runsql "DELETE * FROM [table_name] WHERE ID = """ & !ID & """"
codmd.setwarnings (true)

end if

.movenext

loop

end with

rst.close
set rst = nothing
set db = nothing

</code>

or, if you want to use the 'xxx' route, remove everything between and including the "docmd.setwarnings (false)(true)" and add the following:

<code>
.edit
![column name where x's will go] = "xxx"
.update
</code>

and after the line "set db = nothing" insert the following:

<code>
docmd.setwarnings (false)
docmd.runsql "DELETE * FROM [table_name] WHERE [column name which holds the x's] = xxx"
docmd.setwarnings (true)

I was using less/greater than tags instead of brackets so my code didn't turn out correctly.

In between the "If Then", would be the code you're using to determine if it is deleted. I also mispelled the third docmd (typed it as codmd).

Sorry for the mistakes - relatively new here so still in the learning phase.
