I am making a race results database that is supposed to sum an entrant's two times together to obtain a total combined time.
Let's say that the two times I have are '41.43' (41 seconds and 43 milliseconds, there is no colon) and '1:48.17' (1 minute and 48 seconds and 17 milliseconds), and both are currently of the short text data type in my table. How would I go about obtaining the sum of these two times? I have already tried using queries to convert the strings to seconds with no success.
I need to print data on a pre-printed letter-sized piece of paper that will be cut horizontally into three identical 8.5" x 3.667" forms.
For the life of me, I cannot figure out how to format a report to get the data in the right spots. I've tried messing with the margins, height of the detail area, columns...everything I can think of. It seems I can get the data to print in the right spot on the top form but neither of the other forms and/or on the top two but not on the bottom at all.
Just practicing at the moment, but i have a query that stores durations in hoursminutesseconds
Anyway i want the query to add these times up and give me a total. For example 01:00:00 and 01:00:00 would total up to 02:00:00. Hoever when i use the sum function within the query, i get 0.0833333333333333.
Any idea why and do i have to format the field within the query to recognise it as a Time and not a number?
I want to calculate total hours and mins by adding a load of times (in time format) on a report. I've got the total number of minutes and converted this to hours : [txtmins]/60
Now I want to get the remaining minutes by using : [totalmins] - ([totalhours]*60)
However, how do I round DOWN the [totalhours] before it goes into the above sum. I can round it, but it always seems to round up.
I have a table of hours that have been worked by employees for each day of the week
[moh] (Monday's hours),[tuh],[weh],[thh],[frh],[sah],[suh] data eg (this is how I would like it to be inputted into the table) 7:24:00,7:24:00,7:24:00,7:24:00,7:22:00,0:00:00,0: 00:00
This equates to 36:58:00
I have tried
Total Hours: [moh]+[tuh]+[weh]+[thh]+[frh]+[sah]+[suh]
but I am struggling to get what I want in the right format.
How to record the initial data or a formula to format the end result.
I am a novice with Access and I would appreciate any help with two issues: 1. I am trying to get a value to forward to the next record in a different field so that I may keep a running total. For example: Record 1. A field named Today is added to a field named Forward to get a total in a field named Total. Record 2. I would like to get the value from record 1 in the Total field to carry forward to the the field named Forward in record 2.
The form looks something like this:
Today: 10:00 Forward: 2:00 Total: 12:00
I would like to get the value of 12:00 in record 1 carried forward to the Forward field of reocrd 2 so that the Forward field in record 2 would read 12:00.
2. I also need to add times together arithmatically but the problem I have is that when the total exceeds 24:00 hours it shows only the amount that exceeds 24 hours. For example, if I add 22:00 to 5:00 the result is 3:00 not 27:00. I need to show 27:00 as the total.
Any help with these two items would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks, uspilot
I am exporting data from the database to an excel sheet. Then I want to apply conditional formatting to the data so values between a certain range should be a certain colour.
But nothing happens when applying the conditional format, or when just trying to fill a cell in excel. Only when repeatedly clicking fill cell in excel does the colour change. Also all the cells are in the number format.
I dont get any errors with this code. Let me explain what im doing: T1 = temparary table (not really temparary but the values just change so often it might as well be) this table has field names: partname, order, maxorder, etc. stuff like that pretty much its a table that has records for each part name.
T2 = main database this table holds the order for all parts for a particular time and day
T1 is the one that people are familiar with, where as T2 's set up is something that they would not be, so for clarity we use T1 for displaying etc.
now my problem is, i try to transfer data from one table to another but it works sometimes and doesnt work others, i dont get any errors and i have option explicit on as well. if someone could look at this code and tell me if there are any problems that you see, the quicker the response the better.

How is it that the query works when I run it but when I try to apply it to a sub form it gives a syntax error, any ideas how to correct this
I have a table with several date fields. All the fields are formatted to medium date, but the data is being saved in to different ways. Some records are yy-mmm-dd and some are dd-mmm-yy. Each field has at least a few inconsistent dates but not always in the same record. I can't figure out how to make them consistent again. Has anyone else ever had this problem?
I am at a loss as to why my dates in my table datasheet are not consistent in the Date/Time format. In the table and specifically the Date/Time field it is formatted as the selection "Short Date". I am located in the U.S. using MS Access 2003. The database I'm using was a free download from the MS website called "Accounting Ledger" and it is for Access 2003.
While I have dabbled in databases some I am really at a loss as to why I am seeing two >>different<< Date/Time formats in the *same* table.
Below is the date range I've entered from January 2007 to May 2007 and below has been copied and pasted directly from the datasheet. Trying to do a date sort in any fashion is out of the question until I resolve this.
I am consistent in my date input... April 6, 2007 is entered as 4/6/07, January 18, 2007 is entered as 1/18/07, February 21, 2007 is entered as 2/21/07 and so on.
However, some dates are showing as mm/dd/yyyy format while others are showing as dd/mm/yyyy format.
Note: if I choose a general date or long date format Access reads these as July, September and October dates in some cases.
Here is January (as copied and pasted from the datasheet)
01/03/2007 (these first 7 show a mm/dd/yyyy format) 01/03/2007 01/02/2007 01/10/2007 01/09/2007 01/05/2007 01/11/2007
18/01/2007 (these last 6 show a dd/mm/yyyy format) 24/01/2007 27/01/2007 27/01/2007 02/01/2007 31/01/2007
I work for a bank and have build a few little DB's for differant groups but my current project is a work flow tool for a department. I have it 90% completed and i still have to build in the reporting side. Part of the reporting is caclulating times and this is where i am having problem.
I have some coding built but i am getting inconsistant results, as an example if i am trying to calculate the total amount of time between [start Time], [End Time] then minus any [Stop Time].
I have this on a command button, i have this same code for a few other calculations and in some cases it seems to be working i have just changed my start and stop fields along with what stop time to take out in each case. I have attached some parts of my DB, one of the modules, my main table and the form where i am running the coding.
I have split the database, with the back-end residing on the server. Only 1 other person is working in Access right now; she's verifying the data. Today she's working directly in the back-end, could this be the problem. If it is, I'm going to have to create a front-end for her quickly.
My problem is this...I'm working on queries and forms so that the scientists who will ultimately be using this application, won't be able to go in and inadvertently change something in the tables set-up. When I'm in the back-end main data table, it says I have 2723 records.
When I create a front-end query to query all the records in that table, it says I have 2160 records.
The input form that I created with most of the same fields as the query (created BEFORE I created the query...I'll have it pull from the query now instead of directly from the table) also says we only have 2160 records.
I have a continuous subform on my main form where one text box is a hyperlink that opens a form. All is well, except....
When the mouse hovers over the text box of the top record, the cursor does not change to the hyperlink pointed finger thing (it's I-beam), even though the text in the textbox displays in hyperlink format.
If I hover over the hyperlink/text boxes of records 2 thorough x, the hand-cursor appears.
More info: 1. The hyperlink functions normally (i.e., the appropriate form opens to the appropriate record) 2. When I then return to the main form, the hand-cursor magically appears when hovering the first record. 3. I have 2 other continuous subforms on the same main form that behave the same way.
I have a simple select query on a SQL table from Access. The query is:
SELECT tbl_Orders.OrderID, tbl_Orders.Approved FROM tbl_Orders WHERE (((tbl_Orders.Approved)=0) AND ((tbl_Orders.Completed)<>0)) ORDER BY tbl_Orders.OrderID;
The strange thing is that sometimes it pulls 34 results, and sometimes 38. From what I can tell, it should be pulling all 38.
What can I do to make sure it gets all the records?
Need to confirm whether the Default formatting option in the Conditional formatting Dialog won't work in datasheet view of a form. Please note that all conditional criteria are working fine but not the Default Formatting option - only in the Datasheet view (In Single Form view the default formatting is working fine)
We use a device called a site master to test frequency levels across a system. This device stores plots onto graphs which are then downloaded onto an Access (95) database. When the plots are captured before they are put into the database they are time and date stamped among other things. When I open the Database in access I can go into the fields and physically change each of the dates. Yet when I use the site master software to open the database the Time and Date stamp appear at the bottom as the original values and not the changed values that I have assigned. Also when you right click the plots table and go to the properties. The created and modified dates have stayed as the originals. What I would like to be able to do is adjust this date. And what I would like to know is this possible??? Is it like a Windows File 'System' that is giving this date or is it a function in Access that can be changed?
I have a query that sums downtime on equipment. The problem that I came across is that there can be multiple status items open up on the same piece of equipment. When the restored time on one status item occurs after the down time of another, the query still adds the total down time of both status items which is giving me greater downtime than there actually is.
I work for a chemical company, over the course of the day there are 2 shifts, one from 07:00 - 19:00 and the other from 19:00 - 07:00. I want to measure the amount of time a piece of equipment has been offline for, and Sum these times for each shift, these pieces of equipment can go offline multiple times per day which is why I need the sum function. The fields I currently have are:
[Date1] : The date at which it went offline [Time] : The time at which the piece of equipment went offline [Duration] : The length of time it was offline for
For each day I wish to sum the offline time in two fields called:
[Shift 1]: The previous nights shift (between 7pm the day before and 7am that day). [Shift 2]: The days shift (between 7am and 7pm that day).
Where to begin but the logic should be something like:
[Shift 1] = Sum of [Duration] For(([Date1]-1 and [Time] between 19:00 and 23:59) And ([Date1] and Time between 00:00 and 07:00))
[Shift 2] = Sum of [Duration] For([Date1] and [Time] between 07:00 and 19:00)
I currently have two tables storing all this data, one containing [Date1], and another containing the breakdown information such as [Duration], [Time] etc. They are linked by the [Date1] relationship. The reason for the first table only having the [Date1] field is because it is a Main Form which contains various sub-forms.
I am trying to build a query that depending on the value stored in a combo box called SHIFT, either lists all the entries that have been made by our dayshift (07:00-19:00) or our night shift (19:00-07:00)
Each of these components work if I seperate them out
IIf([forms]![FRMFRame74]![SHIFT]=1,Between #07:00:00# And #19:00:00#,Between #19:00:01# And #23:59:59# And Between #00:00:00# And #06:59:59#)
I have a database that keeps track of training hours for each employee. The Training Length is formated as Short Time. I just figured out that short time can only go up to 23:59:59. Some of my trainings will be over that. Does anyone know a way to get around other than splitting up my hours and Mins in the table?
