Creating Combobox With Unique Month And Year Entries From A Date Field In A Table
Jul 18, 2005
Hi,
Anyone know how to create a combo box that has unique month and year entries from a table (month in one column and year in another - i.e. 2 columns)?
I've been able to get the textbox of the combobox to output the correct format using a custom format but it does not affect the combobox data. Also, I'm not sure how to separate this by two columns...
trying to get something working on a form. When creating a new client, due to privacy, we have to create a Unique ID for each one. The ID consists of their initials, the year, a serial number and the location. I have it mostly working except for the year. Let me show you what I have and the results, then what I would like the results to be.
can i change date format that contain day, month, and year to month and year only.. i try change at fromat at porperties, but it change back into dd/mm/yy at combo box.. this is bcoz i want to filter up my subform that contain parts that purchased by customer by month..
Can someone tell me how to get year to date totals, month to date totals, week to dates in a query? I need to get all three for three different fields.
I was not able to get the totals with the formulas given. I received the totals for each day instead. Are there any other suggestions? I am trying to different formulas, but they are not working either. I did try doing different queries with the formulas to see if that would work.
I have chart in ADP project/MS SQL Express and I want to see in chart table (date Field, data field) grouped by year and month: 2005.01, 2005.02, 2005.03.... I try this str = DATENAME(yyyy,date)+ DATENAME(m,date), SUM(data) FROM table GROUP BY DATENAME(yyyy,date)+ DATENAME(m,date) ORDER BY DATENAME(yyyy,date)+ DATENAME(m,date)
problem is with sorting: 2005April, 2005februar,2005,Januar - its sorting not by date, but alpabhetic.
Hey guys.... stucked in one thing..... I need to extract Month and Year together from a date in a Query. for example if date is 4/19/2007 i want to put this as April 2007.
I have a table a year month day 2005 1 1 2005 3 1 2006 5 1 I want to generate the associateed 1/1/2005 3/1/2005 5/1/2005 which funciton I can use to do that?
I have a need to enter dates so that they always appear as the first of the month. These dates are used in vlookup functions in Excel and need to be constantly recorded as eg 1 Nov 06. Currently I have to rely on notes and training to make sure users only insert the date in this way.
What I would like to do is get them to enter Nov 06 only (without a day) and have that stored as 1 nov 06. I have searched for date formatting functions and nothing addresses this. Perhaps it is something that could be achieved using VB if it is possible to do it.
I need to use VBA to get a string which is essentially just a month and year (so date, not including day)
Would Prefer it to be 04/15 as opposed to April-15, as the number is easier to sort than the word (how to sort month names in numerical order as opposed to alphabetical id).
So that I assume i could do by =format(now(), mm/yy) (though havent actually tested it)
However to add to the complexity id also need to add a month to it, so for instance todays date is 08/04/15, id need the string to read "05/15"
or if the date was 10/12/15 id need the string to read "01/16"
I have big table that gets updated almost every day with new data. There is a date column. I have a Form where I can enter queries. I need to add a panel where I can spcify if the query should involve the data should involve the date from last week only, from the last 2 weeks, from the last month or if the query should involve the overall data.:confused:
It somhow need to be check what the date is today and then caclulate back.
I want to build a query that calculates the fiscal year and the month from a date on-the-fly. I tried to do it in VBA, but it's more complicated than in query I guess. So this is my table:
The date is on the left, in the middle I want to have calculated Jan 14 and on the right I want 14/15.
In VBA I started with this: strMonth = MonthName(Month(A), True) & " " & Format(A, "YY") which gave me "Jan 08". But the date was hard-coded and not from my table. Then I tried to store the information by SQL statement into a string. But this also didn't work, the types were different.
Code: UPDATE tblSAPOD SET sapOD_month = Year([sapOD_OrderDate])-IIf([sapOD_OrderDate]< DateSerial(Year([sapOD_OrderDate]),6,16),1,0) WHERE sapOD_OrderDate Like "*/*/94";
.. but I guess it's wrong, it gives me a syntax error.
My question is that I wish to have a query that looks up on a name in a form (No problem got this bit) and also the Date field from the same form so that from the date :-
example 24/03/2013 only cares about the Month and Year so would look up only March in 2013
The end result would be to supply me with a number (using count) of how many times this persons name has occurred within the calendar month and year of the date supplied in the form
AssumptionMo AssumptionYr MAY 2014 JUN 2015 JUL 2015 OCT 2016
I need to create a field called AssumpDate that converts the month into a date field on the 1st day of the month. ex May 2014 needs to read 5/1/2014. When I use the expression AssumpDate: DateValue("1-" & [Assumption_Month] & "-" & Year(Date())) of course the year changes to the current one--2015. How can I I change the expression so that the year is based on the AssumptionYr column?
I am editing a database that provides the option of creating custom reports, where the user can input a date range of their choice and receive aggregate data for that time frame. Although all of the numbers in the report are correct, I am having trouble with a chart that I inserted into the report.
Specifically, if the date range requested spans 2 calendar years (i.e. April 2014 through January 2015), the data for January 2015 appears at the beginning of the year (so the chart x-axis is for Jan through Dec, and the Jan 2015 data is showing up in Jan (as if it was 2014, not the end of the given range in 2015). When I try with smaller time frames within a calendar year, it adjusts just fine (i.e. shrinking the window so just March-May is displayed on the graph).
How to adjust the axis so that it properly records the data range- so that it would start the axis with April and end in January, for example?
I'm trying to create a table with an entry for month/day, no year. I want to create a report that can will sort the birthdays based on month in ascending order.
I'm currently using the text field to put in, "10/30" or "1/3" but when I try to order the dates, instead of "1,2,3,4,5,6..." I get "1, 10, 11, 12, 2, 3.." etc.
I have been trying to incorporate an access DB in to our business for sometime, but keep coming up against the same issue. We have a numbering system for the jobs we do, which was invented many years ago and cannot be changed. It is in the format "month/Year/unique 3 digits" the 3 digits are sequential, i.e. 02/07/123 ... 02/07/124... etc. I will need this all in one field. So far I have managed to get the month and year (easy enough) with the expression "=Month(Now()) & "/" & Right(Year(Now()),2) & "/"" Now I need to get the sequential 3 digits at the end, however, I am not sure of any way to do this and it has stumped many people. I have a field that is autonumbered, but don't seem to be able to add this to the end of the expression.
If any of you have any suggestions I would be greatful - bear in mind I am only a begginer at this.
I'm creating a database using existing data from an excel file full of contact details. What I need to add is a queue type system where each contact in the database has a "Place in Queue" number which is unique obviously.
Lets say Alan is number 1, Bob is 2 and Chris is 3. They have these corresponding numbers in the queue field for their entries.
Now what I need to have, through use of a form, is a way of changing Chris from number 3 in the queue to number 1 and thus have Alan automatically shift down to number 2 and Bob to 3.
I am designing a database for a quarry for maintenance of their machines. I have a table that has a full list of all the parts on the machines, and a multiple value lookup field that says what machines said parts are used on. I am trying to have these values translate to another table, so I can then insert a field to say how many of each part are used on the respective machine, to display on an information form for each machine.
I would also like this table to update if the relevant information is updated, for example if a new machine is input, then have the table update to reflect what parts are used on it (an After Update function?) I have made a query that gives me the read out I want (attached) but just cannot figure out how to get that into a table so I can add the extra information.
I have setup a simple access database consisting of 3 tables
Volunteer Id (PK) Name
Job Id (PK) JobName
Link Id (PK) VolunteerId (FK) JobId (FK)
There is a one to many relationship between Volunteer and Link and a many to one between Link and Job
I want to create a form from which I'll select a Volunteer Name and then choose a JobName from a list box of options and have it create an entry in link with the id of the volunteer selected and the id of the job selected
So let's say there are 5 entries currently in the Job Table.. let's call the JobNames A,B,C,D and E.
In my form I select my name from the list (sourced from volunteer.Name) and then select B from the dropdown. My desired result would be a single entry gets created in Link with VolunteerId = 1 (representing me) and JobId = 2 representing the selection of B. Problem that I am having is that after I select B in the dropdown it creates a new record for B in Job and the Link table gets updated with that JobId as opposed to simply using the one that was already in the table.
I'm new to programming with Access but am attempting to create a new field in a table with an new date based on existing fields in the table.
The current fields are [Frequency], integer, [Risk], text, [Last Audit Date], date/time, and the new field is [Next Audit Date]. [Frequency] is a calculated field based only on [Risk] and is equal to "5" if [Risk] is "Low" and is "3" is [Risk] is "Medium" or "High", and [Frequency] is blank if [Risk] is (thus far it has never been empty).
What I need the new calculated field to do is return "N/A" (or blank, or anything easily separated really) if [Frequency] is blank, or if [Risk] is "Low" or "Medium". If [Risk] is "High", [Next Audit Date] should be equal to [Last Audit Date] plus 3 years. When I try to save the code, I get this message: "The expression could not be saved because its result type, such as binary or NULL, is not supported by the server."
This is my code now: IIf(IsNull([Frequency]),"",IIf([Risk]="Low","N/A",IIf([Risk]="Medium","N/A",IIf([Last Audit Date]="N/A","N/A",[Last Audit Date]+Year(3)))))
