I'm an Access novice! I have a table with a library loan date field defaulting with today's date and a due back field. I want the due back field to show a date 3 weekdays after the loan date. I've tried using DateAdd("w",3,Date()) but this just adds 3 days, not weekdays. Does anyone know how do I get it to skip weekends? If I need to use VBA, please supply instructions for including the code, as well as the code itself. :confused:
View RepliesHello everyone..
First of all...I am really thankfull for this Forum.
I have a Question
I have 2 dates. FromDate and ToDate
I want to Calculate the days without the weekdays.
Please help..
Thank you very much in advance...
I m new 2 access, i have a query which i simply do not know how to handle. Please if anyone can help me:
I have a form having two dates on it, First is Invoice Date and the second is delivery date. What i wish to see is that automatically the invoice date takes date from system (this part is done), and the delivery date field automatically adds 2 more days to it and excludes weekend days, saturday and sunday. for example: a date of 6 July 2006 was picked by invoice date field from system, the delivery date now should add 2 more days to it plus it must not include weekend days in it, so the resulting date in delivery date field must read 10-Jul-2006.

I have a database (big surprise :rolleyes: ) and I need it to calculate and filter information based on a process name, a number of days for that process and a schedule date.
For the process NC Batch I need it to calculate out 15 working days from today excluding weekends and holidays and then find the records in the orders table that has a schedule date less than or equal to the returned date. I have a calendar in excel that does it with a look up.
I have a table listing holiday dates and a table listing processes and the corresponding day count.
In the query I currently have it listed as
[ScheduleDate]<=Date()+20.
but this will not take into account holidays and it includes weekends.
I know there are several threads on work day functions but I could not get any of them to adapt to my needs. Sorry.
Hi,
I live and work in middle east. Here the weekend starts on Thursday and the week starts on Saturday. Thursday and friday are Off Days. Saturday is the first day of the week. I have a problem related to date calculations.
I have a form having two date fields on it.
1) INVOICE DATE
2) DELIVERY DATE
i wish to see that the INVOICE DATE automatically takes system date from system and same applies for DELIVERY DATE but the only difference will be that the DELIVERY DATE field automatically adds next two more days from the system date. If either of the next two days that are added to system date is/are weekend (thursday or Friday) then it must show the first available working day after the weekend.
for example: a date of 5 July 2006 was picked by INVOICE DATE field from system, the DELIVERY DATE field now should add 2 more working days to system date (it must not include weekend days in it), so the resulting date in delivery date field must read 09-Jul-2006.
I am sure that there are people who can solve my query

:confused: DateDiff gives me the number of days between 2 dates but how do I count only WORKING days between 2 dates?
I hope someone can help?

I am trying to write a query that looks at groups of records for averages and maximums but the records are only from Mon-Fri (Trading Days). I have a query that runs everyday and compares today's close to see if it is greater than the maximum close of the last 20 trading days. I want to use between date()-21 and date()-1. BUT this will include weekends where there is no data.
QUESTION: Is there a way to say between the last 20 trading days(Mon-Fri)?
I researched dateadd() and found one place were it says that "w" is used for weekday. http://www.database-design-2000.com/dateadd.htm BUT when I did a simple query to see if it would exlude the weekends it doesn't. I will have no data for the weekends but if I am doing an average of the last three days and this is run on Monday, it will only include Monday and not the previous Thursday and Friday. Thanks for your help:)
What I am trying to do is execute a function M-F every 2 hours between 4am and 6pm. The 2 hour part was easy, I just created a form with a timer, but the other part isn't working so well, here is my latest attempt.
Code:
StrTime = Time()
If Not ((Weekday(Now()) = vbSaturday) Or (Weekday(Now()) = vbSunday)) And (StrTime > "4:00" Or StrTime < "18:00") Then
Here's what I currently have:
- A table with a number of fields about a course
- A course commence date
- A number of days the course will take field
- No course end date
Is there a way to easy add one field to the other to:
Give end date i.e. do I need to write the code to validate all dates which bring the date over a month e.g. start date 29/sep/2007 and number of days 5.
Does date have the functionality already?
Thanks in advance

I have a table with the following fields.
ContractID (Autonumber)
ContractStart (Date)
Customer (Text)
The form code is:
Private sub Customer_AfterUpdate()
[ContractStart] = Date
End Sub
When i update the customer field i receive the error : "Run-time error 2465 - Microsoft Office Access can't find the field 'Date' referred to in your expression"
Any ideas? I have tried changing [ContractStart] to ContractStart and Me.ContractStart and the same happens?!
I am trying to add a certain number of days onto a date field to create a due date within a Table but can't work out how to do it. I know that to add days on I can use the function DateAdd but the only way I can see how to do this is to create and update query to run and add the date on. Is there anyway that I can set the field to automatically update the due date dependent on the priority of the record e.g. immediate (1 day) standard (3 days) and request (28 Days)?
View 3 Replies View RelatedHelp...I am new to Access and am trying to get a query completed to run a query on contract end dates. My goal is to be able to run the query on a date such as 10/2007 and have it pull all contract end dates that would term for the month of October, 2007. I have been pulling my hair out trying to build expressions and sifting through my access books to no avail.
Any assistance is greatly appreciated!!!

Hi
Apologies first if there is an easy answer to this post as I'm new to Access.
I have a notes box on a form that users update with the latest progress of work done. At the end of each progress I would like Access to automatically add the date, time and user's network id so that I can track who did what and when.
Is there an easy way to code this?
Hi All,
I am not sure where to go with this. I have tables Employee, Audio, evaluate.
My main form opens with recordsource = Employee. SubformA is tblAudio linked via empID. I have subformB that is tblEvaluate linked via EmpID.
SubformA is set as contineous form, so there may be 1-?? records per that Employee. I have a command button on subformA next to each record. What I would like to do is: when clicking on the command buton of that record copy some of the fields (of that record only) over to subformB appending or editing tblEvaluate.
I have tried to search through the postings but no luck on anyone discussing what I am trying to do.
Any help would be greatly appreciated....
thanks...Enviva
Is there a function in Access that will allow you to add business days to a date? I want to pull a date with a query and then add 5 business days to it to display in a report. Anyone know if this is possible?
Thanks.
i have a tbl that stores items that have an expiry. in a child table i want to store the expiry. but as it is different for each item i need a way of doing this.
i thought that by having
DateAdd('m',3,Date()) in one of the fields this would work.
on click event i would like the date add to come into play but the way i am doing it comes up with an error. too few arguments.
this is what i have so far
Code:
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim db As DAO.Database
Set db = CurrentDb
[Code].....
I want make a date control compulsory if a value is selected from a combo list on the same form.
I have Combo List, status, which can be 25%, 50%, 75%, WON or Lost. If the value is WON or LOST I want the date control, Date Project Closed, to be compulsory. I cant set it to insert today's date as it may have been closed up to a week before.
If 25%, 50% or 75% are selected then the date should not be compulsory.
How might it possible to automatically add the first of the month to a table using the computer date.
So 01/01/2014 would be added as a record on that date only and not for the remainder of the month, same for 01/02/2014 etc
BTW, these are DD/MM/YYYY formats
I want create a query that adds a field called DATE to my existing data. I want every record to have a date of 1/1/2011 populated in it. I need it to have date formatting so that I can add/subtract other dates from it.
DATE
1/1/2011
1/1/2011
1/1/2011
How to do this?
I am trying to figure out a way to pull a date from a table and add it to another table automatically. I'm building a database for a harvest/trucking operation and we want to be to set the date everyday and then it pull that date on all of our tickets, reports, etc. Most days we run till after midnight but we want to still record the date as the day we started so I don't think pulling the date from the computer itself would be a good option.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm working on a database where users enter an assignment into a datasheet form. Assignments are selected from a combo box that has values stored in a table. After choosing the assignment, the user adds the date it was completed. After this is done, I would like the "Next Due" column to update. Each assignment will have a different next due date, such as one year from the completion date, six months, etc. I don't know how to add different values depending on the combo box selection.
View 5 Replies View RelatedHi all,
I need to be able to add x months to a given date which I'm using in a criteria expression. I've figured out that I can just add y number of days, but the answers aren't quite accurate across different ranges of months.
I'm after something like
<[BeginDate] And >([BeginDate]+[3months])
but I haven't turned up anything useful in an hour of googling - finding it difficult to define what I want in search engine terms.
Cheers,
Alex
How can i add date in textbox by simply selecting it from calendar?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI can make the DATE picker work, but I need to add the TIME to the same picker. At least that would be preferred.
View 6 Replies View RelatedMy first question is how to set a column to be the current date read by the computer.
Example: It will automatically say 5/8/2013 tomorrow without needing updating.
Question 2: How to add a number of days to the current date.
Example:
Add 7 days to the current date.
on 5/8/2013 it will read 5/15/2013, then automatically update to 5/16/2013 on 5/9.
I'm exporting a query from Access to an ASCII text file. It is automatically adding a time stamp (0:00:00) to the end of ALL of my date fields. I would like it if it didn't do this...:D
