Anyone help with MS access?
I'm trying to do a query, and specify some criteria.
its an account balance, and i need to show accounts greater to or = to $10000
what do i type in the criteria field to get that?
I tried:
>$10000
>=$10000
=$10000
=>$10000
>"$10000"
>="$10000"
="$10000"
=>"$10000"
each time i get "data type mismatch in criteria expression"

does the field actually have $ or is it just a number? if it's actually a number, you wouldn't want the $ (the $ might be just for display).

actually, it would have to be for display since $ is text, and you can't have something > text... only has to do with pure numbers.
