Hi,
Not sure if this is possible but is there a way in access for a date/time field to have the text "To be confirmed" if no date is entered.
I am creating a courses database and some courses do not have dates yet as they are looking for suitable venues.
Is this possible?
Hi
I want to tick a check box next to a [date] field on a form which signifies 'date confirmed'
on clicking the check box, I'd like the [date] field to be greyed out/locked/font colour changed etc...
any thoughts on how to do it???
Thanks
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 Relatedi 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

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
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a date picker field in my form that is used as part of a criteria in a query. I also add it as a result field in the query being that it is appending data to a table. But when the query runs it puts weird characters into the query field with expression.
The Expression is as follows:
BillWk: [Forms]![Invoice Form]![WkEnd]
My Criteria is:
Between [Forms]![Invoice Form]![WkEnd] And [Forms]![Invoice Form]![WkEnd]-6
The Criteria works but the expression does not.
I have attached a png of the field.
I don't think the below code is right, is it close?
Code:
Option Compare Database
Private Sub Test_AfterUpdate()
If Me.Test = "LR" Then
Me.Due_Date Date = [Date Received] + 4
End If
End Sub
Just trying to add 4 days to a field. (the Date Received field is in the format m/dd AM or PM)
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 am building an Access database for a client. It is an employee staffing database. With that being said they would like the ability to automatically populate the "T2PPCD" date field based on what is entered into the "Report Date" field. (Same table)
The date is the Monday after 180 days from the report date.
I already know how to get it to auto fill 180 days from the "Report Date" but I'm not sure how to tell it to give me the Monday after 180 days.
I'm trying to get my "IncidentDate" field to autopopulate two other date fields to a few days from the "IncidentDate". The other two date fields are "ContainDueDate" and "RootDueDate". I'm trying to accomplish this on my "Test CAP Form"
I tried using the following in the BeforeUpdate of "ContainDueDate" and received a complier error: expected =
Code : DateAdd(d,2,[IncidentDate])
so I removed the parenthesis and nothing happened
Code : DateAdd d,2,[IncidentDate]
I even tried redoing it in the AfterUpdate of "IncidentDate" and nothing happened either
Code : DateAdd d,2,[ContainDueDate]
I'm not sure if I'm even using the right function to get what I want.
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 6 Replies View RelatedI 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've inherited a database into which the user (not me) is entering essentially the same Date data twice: field 1 contains 6/19/2014 and for field 2 they enter June-14 (the month and year from field 1).
I suspect there should be a way to derive and then reformat the display of field 2 based on the contents of field 1, such that the user only has to enter the first. Is this true? If so, how?
(I know there really is no need for the 2nd field, but existing reports and queries are built around it -- so for right now, I'm just trying to eliminate the duplicate data entry)...
Help...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 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.
