My database looks like this:

underlying option symbol exchange PC Vol BD Vol MM Vol date Product
AAPL AAPL W 1043 304 2447 20110414 OSTK
AAPL AAPL C 41301 5415 42566 20110414 OSTK
AAPL AAPL I 41308 5252 37964 20110414 OSTK
AAPL AAPL Q 43155 3042 20397 20110414 OSTK
AAPL AAPL X 33980 9266 38232 20110414 OSTK
AAPL AAPL1C O 103 3 58 20110414 OSKF
AAPL AAPL A 67167 3415 61854 20110414 OSTK
AAPL AAPL P 17292 2116 17702 20110414 OSTK
AAPL AAPL Z 22441 3384 9763 20110414 OSTK
AAPL AAPL B 7864 2334 6984 20110414 OSTK


I need a query which will for a given date (prompted), produce a table/
report like this:

underlying Total A B C I O P Q W X Z
AAPL 548152 24% 3% 16% 15% 0% 7% 12% 1% 15% 6%


Where Total is the sum for all exchanges PC Vol, BD Vol, and MM Vol
for the underlying. My database has more than one underlying. Also
need this total to reflect only Product=OSTK.

For A,B,C,I etc (exchange), the value is their respective sum of PC
Vol, BD, Vol, and MM Vol divided by Total - thus the % share of the
total.

Is this possible to do in a query ?

Thank you inadvance.
 
That will require TWO queries to generate - a crosstab query to get the values
and a select query to calculate the percentages. Or one CROSSTAB query and a
report.

Query one:
TRANSFORM Sum(Nz([PC Vol],0) + Nz([BD Vol],0) + Nz([MM Vol],0))
SELECT Underlying
, Sum([PC Vol]) + SUM([BD Vol]) + Sum([MM Vol]) as TotalVol
FROM [SomeTable]
GROUP BY Underlying
PIVOT Exchange in ("A","B","C","I","O","P","Q","W","X","Z")

Query Two
SELECT Underlying, TotalVol
, [A]/TotalVol as A_
, /TotalVol as B_
....
, [Z]/TotalVol as Z_
FROM [CrosstabQuery]

Or you could do it all in one query using IIF statements.
SELECT Underlying
, SUM(IIF([Exchange]="A",Nz([PC Vol],0) + Nz([BD Vol],0) + Nz([MM
Vol],0),0))/(Sum([PC Vol]) + SUM([BD Vol]) + Sum([MM Vol])) as [A]

, SUM(IIF([Exchange]="B",Nz([PC Vol],0) + Nz([BD Vol],0) + Nz([MM
Vol],0),0))/(Sum([PC Vol]) + SUM([BD Vol]) + Sum([MM Vol])) as

, ...
FROM [SomeTable]

Forgot the GROUP BY clause in the last example. Also should have noted that I
expect the SUM of each Vol to never return Null in the expression (Sum([PC
Vol]) + SUM([BD Vol]) + Sum([MM Vol])). Also that the expression in total
would never equal zero.


SELECT Underlying
, SUM(IIF([Exchange]="A",Nz([PC Vol],0) + Nz([BD Vol],0) + Nz([MM
Vol],0),0))/(Sum([PC Vol]) + SUM([BD Vol]) + Sum([MM Vol])) as [A]

, SUM(IIF([Exchange]="B",Nz([PC Vol],0) + Nz([BD Vol],0) + Nz([MM
Vol],0),0))/(Sum([PC Vol]) + SUM([BD Vol]) + Sum([MM Vol])) as

, ...
FROM [SomeTable]
GROUP BY Underlying

Thank you for your help.

I have this query based on your suggestion for the 2 query solution...

TRANSFORM Sum(Nz([PC Vol],0)+Nz([BD Vol],0)+Nz([MM Vol],0)) AS Expr1
SELECT OCC_Data.underlying, Sum([PC Vol])+Sum([BD Vol])+Sum([MM Vol])
AS TotalVol
FROM OCC_Data
WHERE (((OCC_Data.date)=[EnterDate yyyymmdd]))
GROUP BY OCC_Data.underlying
PIVOT OCC_Data.exchange In ("A","B","C","I","O","P","Q","W","X","Z");

Which generates the raw numbers.

I need the second query that will produce the result below - I can't
seem to get the query you revommended to work. Notice that the
TotalVol is the actual number generated by the first query while the
other values (A,B...Z) are the % share of the underlying.

underlying TotalVol A B C I O P Q W X Z
AAPL 548152 24% 3% 16% 15% 0% 7% 12% 1% 15% 6%

Thanks again.
 
The following should work

SELECT Underlying, TotalVol, [A]/TotalVol as AShare
, /TotalVol as BShare
, [C]/TotalVol as CShare
....
FROM [NameOfCrossTabQuery]

If that doesn't work, explain what results you do get. If you get an error,
what is the error.

Copy the SQL of query that is "not working" and post it.

Thank you again. Worked fantastic.

Can the query be modified so that the results "[A]/TotalVol as A_" can
be expressed as a percentage with no decimals ?
 
Multiply the calculation by 100 and then truncate it with INT to strip off the
decimal portion or use CLng to round it.

Int(/TotalVol * 100)
or
CLng(/TotalVol * 100)

Thanks Again. That worked well.

Now the user has requested that the there be 2 decimals. Can the query
control the number of decimals ?
 
Try multiplying by 10000 and dividing by 100

Or try using the format function

Format(,"0.00%")

That should return a string that is formatted appropriately.
Format(.592341123,"0.00%") return 59.23%

You can't do math on the string, but if you only need to display it the Format
should work well.
