I have search here and didn't find what I was looking for. Would I have to break it down to 3 different fields? Then write a code to convert?
I was thinking maybe a update querry.
Any ideas.
I need to convert the date format October 10th, 2013 to 10/01/2013 in a field using sql in access 2010,I know it has to be an update query but dont know how to start writing the query.

I have an inherited database with years worth of julian dates stored as numbers (e.g. days 1-366 for a leap year). I also have some fields stored as short dates. I would like to run a series of parameterized queries on this data, some using the short data and some using the "julian dates" that are actually just numbers. I have the user enter the start and end date in short date format and would like that to be converted and held in an unbound field as a number value. So far I can get the date to appear as a "julian date" (e.g. 1/1/08 appears as 1, obviously the underlying data is still 1/1/08) How do I take that 1 and convert it to number value "1"? Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Peter
I have a linked database that stores date values as YYMM in text format. I have no control over how that information is kept. I cant seem to find a way to convert YYMM text to date format. Additionally I would like to add the last day of the respective month to that data.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am connecting acces to oracle servers via ODBC .
In the table there is a date time stamp - format data type text:
20130225060621
I would like to convert so that it is recognised as a date so I can calculate against e.g. Now() or another standard date format.
this is what I am currently using (which is OK) BUT I need to calculate against the time also.
Current Check Point Date: CDate(Mid([DZ_ZPKT_AK],7,2) & "/" & Mid([DZ_ZPKT_AK],5,2) & "/" & Mid([DZ_ZPKT_AK],1,4))
I spoke to an IT guy who works in TOAD program and he gave me this SQL:
select to_date(dz_zpkt_ak,'DD/MM/YYYY HH24:MI:SS')from orders where ordnr='4411310';
this is the format I would like but cant make this work.
I have a query, that contains the field, weeknumber and weekday value, and year.
now i want to convert this values to proper/standard date format.
Example:
Weeknumber: 19
Weekday: 3 (Tuesday)
Year: 2015
Expected Result: May 5, 2015
I don't know if anyone else has had this problem when changing from one year to the next, but I haven't found any postings regarding date compare issues. I have a two-fold problem:
1. I have a combo box that lists available dates from a table in Descending order so the most recent date is on top. This worked in the last half of 2006, but when the year changed it is now listing the 2007 dates at the bottom of the list. The field is a Short Date in mm/dd/yyyy format. How do I list them in descending order (01/02/2007, 01/01/2007, 12/31/2006, 12/30/2006...)?
2. The user can also type a date in this field to enter a new record that isn't in the table, but I have After_Update code that also compares the date entered with today's date and gives a message if they enter a future date. This also worked in 2006, but now it is populating the future date message if they enter a date in the past. Here is part of the code:
'*****************************************
Private Sub cmbDate_AfterUpdate()
Dim strDate As String
Dim intResponse As Integer
strToday = Date
If IsNull(cmbDate) Or Len(cmbDate.Value) < 1 Then
MsgBox "Please select or enter a valid date."
cmbDate.SetFocus
Exit Sub
Else
strDate = cmbDate.Value
End If
If strDate > strToday Then
intResponse = MsgBox("You entered a future date. Do you want to continue with this date?", vbYesNo)
If intResponse = vbNo Then
cmbDate.Value = Date
Exit Sub
End If
End If
'**********************************************
I would appreciate any advise.

I have been trying to convert string into double number format. I am running a SQL query in VBA that returns a double number format; however my understanding with SQL queries in VBA is that they return string only. The results are showing up perfectly fine when I run the query in the query editor; however when I try using the returned value in further calculations in VBA I keep getting a "Type Mismatch" error.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI wanted to assign the field "Number of magazine" with special format based on date/time format but showing only year and month in the format: "yyyy-mm".
So in property of this field in format I put yyyy-mm and in input mask I type 0000-00;;-
I also created the form based on the table containing above field and I defined format and input mask for corresponding formant in the same way like at the table.
But if I try to type date for example 2014-01 in text box of the form it comes up with the full date 2014-01-01. Why does it do like this? What do I do incorrectly?

I have a list of dates in the mm/dd/yyyy format and I am looking to get it into the fiscal format of yyyyww. I am able to do this with the datepart and format functions, but I need to make it so that the fiscal month begins in January but the first week starts if there are three or more days in the week. For instance if Jan 1st is a Friday then this stands as the first fiscal week, if it is a Saturday then it does not count as the first week.
datepart and format functions have the Use the first week in the year that has at least 4 days for the firstweekofyear option but I need it where it has at least three to make it work.
I have a query in which I am splitting a long integer into Month, Day, Year and then putting it back together using Date Serial in another query. When I originally set this up, the date was coming through as 5 numbers. Now it is coming through as six. However, Access will error out if I try to set it as a date.
So, how can I redo the fields below to get 2 digits for the month instead of one. The date now comes through as 041706
CInt(Mid([Field1],1,2)) AS iMo,
CInt(Mid([Field1],2,2)) AS iDay,
CInt(Mid([Field1],4,2)) AS iYear
Looked through DateSerial but possibly not the way to go. I have a text field, "Month", with the dates in this format: Jan-06, Feb-06. What do I use to convert these to date format? 1/1/06, 2/1/06.
Thanks

View 2 Replies View RelatedHi,
I'm looking for a module wich converts a date to a week.
Ex: i type 08/02/2005 and i obtain Week #2
(Some years have 52 and other 53 weeks, depend on the date of the 1st week of the year, an other problem is that some people say the week begins the monday, other say it begins a sunday)
Maybe a built in fonction exists.
Thanks in advance for help.

View 14 Replies View RelatedThe dates in my table are strings that appear as 12305 (1/23/05) and so forth. So some are 5 and some are 6 digits depending on the 1 or 2 digit month. I want to convert them in my query to a date field. I think I have to use the DateSerial and extract the parts of the date, but that leading 0 that is not there is throwing me off. Any easy solutions?

In a table I have a text field (Meeting Date) which contains the date in the format: "Wednesday 22 March 2006"
How do I convert this to a date of format dd/mm/yyyy?
I have created another field of type date called MDate, in the same table, and have tried experimenting with an update query.
CDate(Left([Meeting Date],4) & "/" & Mid([Meeting Date],5,2) & "/" & Right([Meeting Date],2))
But this has not worked. (If someone could explain the significance of the numbers in the function that would be helpful also - Access help did not provide this information)
Hi, I get the user input from a text box in a form, then i use it in the query.
in my query i used the DateDiff function in the expression. should I convert the data type from string (the user input from the text box) to date type first before using the DateDiff function?
in the SQL view, I wrote the following, but it says incorrect:
SELECT availability.machineName,
(DateDiff("d",CDate(Forms!frmMain!txtStartDate),CDate(Forms!frm Main!txtEndDate))+1)*24 AS totalMonthlyHours, availability.type
FROM availability
WHERE (availability.date)>=CDate(Forms!frmMain!txtStartDate) And (availability.date)<=CDate(forms!frmMain!txtEndDate)
GROUP BY availability.machineName, availability.type;
Thanks in advance.
