Current Date/Time Field
Mar 23, 2005
I have a form with date/time field. I have the default value at =Now(). My problem is I would like for this particular field to stay with the current date/time all the time. I mean if I created a form last week with the date/time of 3/14/2005 12:54:34 PM and go back to the same form to edit something this week I would like for that particular date/time to be the current date/time and not the date/time from the week and time the original form was created.
Thanks for any help!

All, using access 2010. How do I display the default value of a date/time field to just the current year instead of using =date() to get the full date.

Looking to create two command buttons or two keystrokes sets in an Access 2007 form that will allow me to place a current date and time in any allowable field where the Cursor is presently placed. Similar to what was in Access 2000, ctl: (for the current date) and ctl shift : (for the current time).

Encountered a situation where the Date and Time functions in VBA are not using current data? I have VBA code that uses Time to determine certain actions. A new associate took a copy of that code and started tinkering with it to complete a project I assigned. Now, his copy of the code returns old data for the Date and Time functions. It returns 5/27/2014 for Date and 7:15:42 AM for Time. The Now function works properly.
Additionally, running the Date and Time functions in queries works fine. I've compacted and repaired the Access database, I've checked the references, and I've checked to see if he assigned values to variables named Date or Time, but I don't see anything wrong. What am I missing?

I am trying to add the current date and time into separate fields after an ID is entered.
Code:
Option Compare Database
Private Sub ID_AfterUpdate()
Me.Date_Received = Date()
Me.Time_Received = Format(Now(), "hh:mm AMPM")
End Sub

I have a table called Neutron2015. I want the current date and time to complete when entries are made in two other fields. So I am looking for this date and time to populate in EXLStart when an entry is made in Processed By, and also the current date and time to appear in EXLEnd when an entry is made in Completed By with the bold word being the field names.
Is this possible, and how difficult is it?

I have been playing with the sample DB alastair69 donated in the sample db section of the site. "The nice timer function".
If you don’t start the timer right away you don’t have the correct time.
I haven’t figured out how to add a reset type of button to display the most current time in the start time field. Can any one help me out please?

I have a report that displays simple date fields. One of the fields is "lease execution". On the report, I want "lease execution" to display differently depending on the date the report was run.
So:
- If the "lease execution" date is more than 120 days away from today, I want it to display as Q YYYY.
- If the "lease execution" date is between 120 and 90 days away from today, I want it to display as MM/YYYY
- If the "lease execution" date is 90 days or less away, I want it to display the normal date MM/DD/YYYY
I was thinking I would need to do DateDiff() to figure out an amount of days that's between Now() and [Lease_Execution]. Then based on that amount make the report show it differently. Pseudocode would be: if DateDiff() = 40, then display [lease_execution] as MM/DD/YYYY

I am building a database to track contract of employees so that I can know which contracts are valid and which are expired.
My table has the following fields:
ID (Primary key)
Employee ID (Foreign key to link to the employee table)
Start_Date
End_Date
Status (Either valid or expired)
Challenge
I want when I enter the end date, the system checks the end date against the current date and fills in the status field with either valid or expired as appropriate. For instance if the contract end date is March 10,2016, the status must be filled in the word valid.

I have a date/time text field on a form with the General Date format and a combo box next to it that has sequencial times as the row source (IE. 12:45 AM, 1:00 AM, 1:15 AM, 1:30 AM, ETC.) When the user chooses a time in the combo box, I want the time portion of the text box to be updated with the chosen time in the combo. I have tried a few things but cant seem to get it right.

Hi,
Wonder if someone can help please. I'm quite new to Access so please bear with me.
I have a data field in my database consisting of both a date and time.
I then have a form containing two fields where the user can type a 'To' and 'From' date to extract the records that they are interested in. The query behind this uses the 'Between[Enter The Date] And [Enter The Date]' coding.
The problem is that because the field contains a time it doesn't return any records when I run the query.
Can anyone offer a bit of guidance on how I could ignore the time part of the field perhaps by adapting the above.
Many thanks
Chris

I have a column/field named [DateTaken] which contains test dates and times in the same cell. I am needing to find those with a test time less than 2:30 pm or <14:30pm.
data looks like this:
8/22/13 4:23 PM
1/29/14 12:21 PM
1/28/14 3:27 PM
8/26/13 4:27 PM
[code]....
this is what I have come up with to extract the time component of data set so that I can then later, sort it by the time in a query.
JustTime: TimeValue([YourField])
JustTime: ("hh:mm",([DateTaken])) and or ("hh:mm",[DateTaken])
I get either invalid operator or invalid syntax errors trying both of these.

I have a query based on a table which has a date field. the field both in the table and the query have the time also in the date value so when I try to query on a date I get nothing if I copy the date and time from the field I will get the result for that record if I just use the date I get nothing. I have tried the format which does display just date but if you click on the field the time is also there You must be able to query for a date only and get all the records.

Hi,
I am trying to compare a value in my databse produced by the date() function, short date format, to one that is exactly 24 hours after the value recorded by the date() function. If the value in the database is 24 hours prior to the current date(), I need to flag a text box a diffrent color to alert the user. I am unsure on the If statement that I will need to produce this result.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!
Thanks

Does anyone know how to automatically enter the current date into a specified field by simply clicking on a check box. I imagine the IIf function would work when entered into 'Control Source' but I also need the check box to be linked to the underlying table.
i.e. I tick the 'Paid' checkbox and the current date is automatically entered into the 'Date Sold' field. I also need the -1 generated by clicking on the checkbox to be stored in the table.
Any suggestions would be appreciated, although I am no good with code, so if you could post an example or an easier way to do it I would be most grateful

I am trying to figure out to have the current date populate in table field by using a button on a form and not having much luck.
I have a table with 2 date fields, a 'created' field and a 'received' field. I already have the date set to auto populate for the 'created' field but I don't want the 'received' field to populate until the employee has gone into the database to receive the work.
I know I could have the employee just enter the date, but i want to avoid any typos or people simply forgetting to do it.
Ideally I would love the button to enter the current date into the 'received' field and save the entry, but I fine it needs to be 2 seperate buttons.
