Converting Numbers To Time
Oct 13, 2004
I have to create a report to figure out the amount of time that is spent running the printers. I got the time figured out for the time that the operator is running a job. I also have figured out how to total up the time that the printer is down. When I went to figure out the down time I realized that the down time is in numerical format. I can't change it because it is used that way in other reports. How can I change the numbers to time? Do I do that in the properties window for that field? Both the field for the time that the operator is running a job and the total time that the printer is down are created in the query.
Can anyone help me?

I wondered if someone could help.
I am using the Val () Function to convert a text field to number within a query which still gives me a text output.
P.S I do not have permissions to change within table as using Access as a front end to SQL via link Tables.

I have a short text field where numbers such as "15.00", "2233.56", "-300.00" are stored. Now I want to convert the text field to numeric so that I have actually 15.00 or -300.00 stored as a double. I am going to do calculations on these fields. How can I achieve this conversion?

In working with a database, I need to convert 39,000 text fields (i.e.: 6002.2 , 2723 , 6004.55 (Notice the spaces)(commas denote next line)) to number fields. The number of spaces is random, so I can't say "cut off the last n number of characters." There may also be characters that I'm not seeing. I'm not too keen on going through it by hand, and I have access to OpenOffice.org Calc (for those who don't know, it's basically a free version of Excel) so I can pull it into there and convert it, but it still won't get rid of the spaces though. Any ideas?

I have a query to create in access based off a query already created in SQL
The SQL query converts a 4 digit number into a date using this code:
CAST(CASE WHEN LEFT(OPDT, 2) > 12 OR LEFT(OPDT, 2) = 00 THEN RIGHT(OPDT, 2) ELSE LEFT(OPDT, 2) END + '/' + '01' + '/' + CASE WHEN LEFT(OPDT, 2) > 12 OR LEFT(OPDT, 2) = 00 THEN LEFT(OPDT, 2) ELSE RIGHT(OPDT, 2) END AS SMALLDATETIME)
OPDT is a digit number in text format. The function converts 9606 into 1996-06-01
What is the access method in order to this?

I am trying to write some VBA to convert a date into a week number.
My work colleagues do not not what system is used to define the week numbers. So I have gone through all their records for a few years and deciphered this pattern:
I need the code to define that there are 52 weeks in a year. The last sunday of Dec is the beginning of Week 1 for the following year. Except when it is a leap year where Week 53 exists. otherwise it only goes up to week 52.
Start day for the week is Sunday. End day is the Saturday.
Some examples to check against:
22nd December 2013 = Week 52 2013
29th December 2013 = Week 1 for 2014
----
21st December 2014 = Week 52 for 2014
28th December 2014 = Week 1 for 2015
----
20th December 2015 = Week 52 for 2015
27th December 2015 = Week 1 for 2016
----
25th December 2016 = Week 53 for 2016
1st Jan 2017 = Week 1 for 2017
-----
Tried various methods already
iso 8601, wrong week start day
intWeek = DatePart("ww", datDate, vbSunday, vbFirstFourDays) Was right for 2013 but wrong for later dates.

I am trying to convert a whole number to a start time w/ no luck. Assuming "0" is 12:00 AM, I have a start minute of "480" which would in essence be 8:00 AM. Can anyone tell me if I can somehow convert this to time in my query? Thanks.

Is there an easy way to convert an integer into time? What I want is for the person to enter in 0820 or even 820a and then convert it to 8:20 am. This is mainly to save keystrokes.

Hi,
I'm combining two date/time fields in a query to an integer. The first field has the date, the second the time. I'd like the resulting integer to be without the opening 0. How can I do that?
That is, these are the two fields:
2006-09-14 (date/time)
15:00:20 (date/time)
And I'd like those two combined to be 60914150020 (integer) in the third field in the query.
Grateful for advice!

I have a problem converting text to a real date value so I can do some calculations. I have a query that brings in data from an external data source. It appears the data is stored in the external table in text format and looks like this:
20050902 15:40:41
I have tried CDate to convert the text to a date/time format, but no luck. Any ideas?

but the error will still appear as follows:
"Conversion failed when converting date and / or time from character string."

I am trying to display a total based on 3 separate combo boxes in a form. there is a name with an associated number value using 2 fields. the values come from a linked value spreadsheet. the name field is "text" and the number is "number". the user selects their name and number using a combo box drop down window. this occurs 3 times in my form and i want to sum them in a 4th combo box. this is about how it should look, where "Total" happens automatically depending on the name selected.
Lewis 3 Smith 2 Parks 2 Total= 7
thanks for helping.

I'm working on a pretty serious report (at least for me)...I have 3 sub-reports inside, and the point of this is to use VBA and loop through several conditions (in the underlying queries), and print out in a batch for the user. When I add a page number footer it adds about 3 seconds to the processing time for a 14 page report. That doesn't sound like a whole lot, but when I loop through and process this 12 times, that's a lot of added time for the user...(the last thing I want to hear is it's slow!)
So, would it be faster if I set the page numbers in VBA? What event would I use? On Load?!? Also, how would I find the page number variables in VBA?

I have a travel time database that should tally the number of minutes traveled and convert them into a time (hours and minutes). I, however, am having difficulty converting the numeric values cleanly. Is there anyway to convert 102 minutes + 100 minutes + 110 minutes = 312 minutes to 5 hours and 12 minutes cleanly? I need to take averages of time traveled and hours worked but cannot do this correctly. Thank you for any help in advance.:eek:

I need to convert a text field containing a total amount of time (example: 128:15:52 -- 128 hour, 15 minutes, 52 seconds) as a time field. The data is imported into a database as a text field.

I'm having multiple problems with my database like things such as -
i'm currently working on the Query 2 - On the Phone database (ignore Query 1) and i want to search for multiple plot numbers preferably in one parameter prompt with a comma to seperate numbers. (this could be a multitude of numbers so i would like to be able to input as many as needed). Also when i do search on this query since the Criteria is a 'Between' Value i would expect everything between the 2 numbers input to show up - but a lot of numbers out of the range show up too - why is this? (The Numbers are like "69 to 136" and they will show up - but 1-69 and 136-170 would too
I would also like to implement the search results from Query 2 into the Form i currently have made but it just opens up a access table when the search is made?
i cannot link my database as it is too big for the server - But here are the Criteria for Query 2:
Plot No - (criteria = Between [Enter First Plot No:] And [Enter Last Plot No:])
Site - (criteria = Like "*" & [Enter Site:] & "*")
Product - (criteria = Like "*" & [Enter Product:] & "*"
The Query is the one im most concerned about , i can live without a form.

Ok so in excel I have some numbers that are stored as text. The reason being that they are zip codes and some begin with 0 and excel doesn't want numbers to start with 0....so when I import these into an access field that has an input mask for zip codes...will it convert these correctly since the field is a text with input mask?

I have 2 fields that I would like to automate if possible
One field is called "p/o number" and another field called "line no"
These fields are part of an ordering database
Let say I have 200 items to purchase form 10 suppliers
And form example 20 items from each supplier
What I do at present is put the order number on each line item and the line number
example
p/o number line no
1 1
1 2
1 3
2 1
2 2
2 3
2 4
What I want to do is just put the first po number in the required line . Put the first line number in i.e. "1" and the macro will complete all the p/o numbers and line numbers for me as per the ones marked in red.
Example
1 1
2 2
3 3
2 1
2 2
2 3

I have an application with a backend db on PC 1, and the same application on PC 2 linked to the backend db on PC 1 via the network.
The link works fine but the time formats are different.
On PC 1 the time format is shortime and displays as it should i.e. in 24 hour clock format
However on PC 2, opening the same database via the network, the time format is still shorttime but when you read the time within the code it comes out in AM/PM format. Also, when the defaul tiem should be #20:00:00# but this changes to #8:00:00 PM#
Weirdly though, when you just open the table, the times are in the correct shorttime format.
Guessing, it must be a setting within the main core of Access 2003 that is different between the 2 instances?
Any ideas?

I have a table with fields like this one but the weeks go all the way up to 52. What I am trying to do is count the number of consecutive zeros and if it is more than five, count how many of the following fields have a number in them and if that number is less than the number of zeros preceding it identify that person.
For example Joe would be identified below because he had 6 consecutive zeros and then he had 5 weeks of numbers immediately following the string of zeros. Bob would not be identified because he had 5 consecutive zeros and then 5 sets of numbers immediately following the string of zeros so the zero frequency isnt higher than the number frequency immediately following.

I have a dbase that was created in access XP. We are in the process of upgrading to office 2003. For the most part the database works fine. However, I have 1 form that has a few fields that have conditional formatting
on them and when the form opens those fields flash very fast continuously all most like the tab key is being held down. No matter what I do I can't get it to stop. Has anyone seen anything like this and how do I make it stop?
