Week Commencing

An example is probably the best way of doing this so here goes....
Every day my department spend different amounts of money on their lunch. What I want to do is calculate how much they have spent over the week (I do this summary every year).

An example of the data I have is

Name Date Of Purchase Cost

Bart 13/12/2001 £10

Lisa 14/12/2001 £8

Homer 14/12/2001 £50

Marge 17/12/2001 £10

Maggie 17/12/2001 £4

Homer 18/12/2001 £45

Marge 25/12/20001 £12
****************************************
What I Want It To Show

10/12/2001(Week Commencing) £68

17/12/2001(Week Commencing) £59

24/12/2001(Week Commencing) £12

Does Anyone Know How To Do This!!!??


Thanks

What are you doing this in? If it is in MS Access, I would suggest you look at the DATEPART function (especially the "ww" code). You could probably do a GROUP BY where the Date Of Purchase is in the week. Look it up and play with it and if you still need help, post back...

Hope that helps...

 

Easier to just set up a spreadsheet with each person on a seperate tab. Set up weekly blocks and and columns for the money spent with a total at the bottom. You can set up a sheet for an entire year and update it as needed.
