Access 2013 calculated field too complex -


apparently, calculated field way complex. suggest better way accomplish i'm trying do?

goal: value entered in strength field determines value appears in calculated field. in advance help!

[strength] number field [strmod] calculated field

below expression tried build support [strmod] calculated field.

iif([strength]=1,-5, iif([strength]>=2 , [strength]<=3,-4, iif([strength]>=4 , [strength]<=5,-3, iif([strength]>=6 , [strength]<=7,-2, iif([strength]>=8 , [strength]<=9,-1, iif([strength]>=10 , [strength]<=11,0, iif([strength]>=12 , [strength]<=13,1, iif([strength]>=14 , [strength]<=15,2, iif([strength]>=16 , [strength]<=17,3, iif([strength]>=18 , [strength]<=19,4, iif([strength]>=20 , [strength]<=21,5, iif([strength]>=22 , [strength]<=23,6, iif([strength]>=24 , [strength]<=25,7, iif([strength]>=26 , [strength]<=27,8, iif([strength]>=28 , [strength]<=29,9, iif([strength]=30,10,null)

here few suggestions using non-calculated data field type.

update query w/ lookup table

replace calculated field type regular number field [strmod]. create strength lookup table:

strengthvalue  | strengthcategory  1                 -5  2                 -4  3                 -4 4                 -3   5                 -3 6                 -2 ...               ...

then use table create below update query run in afterupdate , afterinsert data macros main table or same events in main table's form.

update maintablename inner join strengthlookup         on maintablename.strength = strengthlookup.strengthvalue  set maintablename.strmod = strengthlookup.strengthcategory

update query w/o lookup table

replace calculated field type regular number field [strmod] , use update query in afterupdate , afterevent events:

update maintablename  set maintablename.strmod =         iif([strength]=1,-5,     iif([strength]>=2 , [strength]<=3,-4,     iif([strength]>=4 , [strength]<=5,-3,     iif([strength]>=6 , [strength]<=7,-2,     iif([strength]>=8 , [strength]<=9,-1,     iif([strength]>=10 , [strength]<=11,0,     iif([strength]>=12 , [strength]<=13,1,     iif([strength]>=14 , [strength]<=15,2,     iif([strength]>=16 , [strength]<=17,3,     iif([strength]>=18 , [strength]<=19,4,     iif([strength]>=20 , [strength]<=21,5,     iif([strength]>=22 , [strength]<=23,6,     iif([strength]>=24 , [strength]<=25,7,     iif([strength]>=26 , [strength]<=27,8,     iif([strength]>=28 , [strength]<=29,9,     iif([strength]=30,10,null))))))))))))))))

vba logic

replace calculated field type regular number field [strmod]. then, use select case statement in main table's form's afterinsert , afterupdate events:

select case me.strength      case 1     me.strmod = -5      case 2 3     me.strmod = -4      case 4 5     me.strmod = -3      case 6 7     me.strmod = -3      case 8 9     me.strmod = -1      case 10 11     me.strmod = 0      case 12 13     me.strmod = 1      ...  end select

strictly preference, never work calculated fields in case of database compatibility (i.e., ms access 2007 accdb users) , upsizing scalability programming languages (php, python, vb odbc connections) , other rdms (sql server, mysql).

javascript - cocos2d-js draw circle not instantly -

i wondering how draw circles (or other shapes also) not instantly. so far tried drawcircle(args...) in ccdrawnode.js , drawcircle(args...) in cc.drawingprimitivecanvas class, , draw circles popping out instantly on screen. what if want achieve effect circular progressive bar, completes circle based on percentage of initialization? or more generally, if want draw circle respect prolonged period? thinking there drawcircle function elapsed time argument fail find any. or have implement own? thanks suggestions, far out of ideas. i think have implement own. think can achieve update circle drawing on each time update() function called.
