Im just wondering about a date stamp which is in one of my queries. The database which i am working on is for a fuels company, one of the tables they have is a runout table, obviously for when fuel runs out at a station and also contains sales history. They have used a date stamp, so they can see how many runout were recorded each day.
My user now wants to be able to see what the previous 'date stamps' sales were, which is DATE_STAMP-1. I was just wondering if this was actually possible, i have tried several different ways of adding the criteria to the DATE_STAMP fields but it doesnt work and have got no where. I would be grateful of any help.
I have a CSV file that is going to be imported into a DB. the CSV file has a field that has a date & time stamp and I need to be able to store this file as 2 seperate fields.... the field would look something like this:
5/10/2006 17:00
I would like to store the datestamp and possibly the timestamp but the timestamp is not very NB!
I update, import and export tables, problem is I need a way to track what I have done or allow someone to pick up where I left off. Is there a way for MS Access to return the Create or Modified Date and time stamp of any table? :eek:
I have searched for the answer but just can't seem to find the answer...
I have a form with a combo box field called Transaction Status with two values to choose from.."Approved" and "Rejected". I also have an "Approved Date" field.
When a transaction goes into "Approved" status, I want the Approved Date field to be date stamped with that days date. Currently in my Approved Date fields Control Source I have the following formula "=IIf([Transaction Status]="approved",Date()).
The problem is when a transaction gets approved the Approved Date comes up with the correct date like it is supposed to but the date does not seem to be fixed, it changes as with every new day.
One thought I had is to put this formula into the "defauld value" property, could that work?
Does anyone know how to put a checkbox on a form and when the check box is changes from blank to checked it puts the current date in that field? Can this be done by formatting the properties or create an event? Or does VB Code need to be written? Any assistance would be helpful.
Hi everybody, I am a poor Access newbie and I am trying to create a mask with a button which fills the current date and time in a field to be used as a timestamp. Thank you for your help
I have a database that is for a manufacturing process and there is a field for date/time to be recorded when a product at each step in the process is started and completed. I would like to automate the date/time stamp (maybe when the field is double-clicked on a query or form). BTW, I have seen the auto update option when a record is updated, but a record will be updated multiple times at every step in the process.
Within my main table / form I have six status drop down boxes and would like to record with a date and time ever time they are changed and save this data in a second table.
If I cant do this with the six drop downs, can I do it if any change has happened to the recorded.
I am trying to find a way to have a date and time stamp applied to records that I am importing from excel. I have not had much luck, and woudl appreciate any help.
Can you have a date/time stamp on a form to see when it was entered?
Since it is near impossible for me to be "real time" with the data and when reports are run from the database right now, I would like be be able to say to a manager I received the information on this day but did not input it until this day.
I'm quite new to Access.I've got an long text field with logging, and an field within an form with column history. Is there a way to turn of the date and time stamp and the column history field?
I'm exporting a query from Access to an ASCII text file. It is automatically adding a time stamp (0:00:00) to the end of ALL of my date fields. I would like it if it didn't do this...:D
I have a barcode input form. When a barcode is scanned, the value of the barcode, along with a date/time stamp using the now() function (hh:mm:ss) is entered into a table in the database as 2 separate columns. I need to make sure that I don't have any 2 barcodes with exactly the same date/time. They must be at least 1 second apart. How can I easily make this happen? I can't control how many times the barcode actually gets scanned.
I'm trying to derive the month in digits from a date/time stamp field. Any month between 10 and 12, I need the first 2 digits but anything <=9 is only 1 digit.
MONTH: IIf(Left([LOAD TO SKU LEVEL DETAIL]![PICK_PLAN_TS],2)="10" Or "11" Or "12", (Left([LOAD TO SKU LEVEL DETAIL]![PICK_PLAN_TS],2),(Left([LOAD TO SKU LEVEL DETAIL]![PICK_PLAN_TS],1))))
I have a make-table query that pulls all the fields from 1 table (MainTable), and creates a new table with a date stamp based apon a form value entered (New Table = MainTableWithDate).
Currently, I setup the query to pull info from the form field like this:
DateField: [Forms]![frmmain]![DateField]
However, when the make-table query is done - all date fields are blank (all other fields are correctly created), and when I look at the new created table (mainTableWIthDate), the typeassigned to the date field is "Binary" (in the form, I've specified LongDate).
I have done this in the past but it has been sooo long since I consistently used Access that I am in a fog:confused:
How can I create a timestamp or series thereof, so that each time data is added to a Memo field there is a date time record created? My goal is to allow people to enter notes but have the timestamp automatically either append itself to the note OR timestamp a seperate field? Open to ideas...
I been through about 15 different time stamp threads and none of them seem to get to the point. I have a texbox on my form where a user can enter a comment. I would like a timestamp just to be on the form next to the box so anyone looking at it can tell when the comment box was updated. Is this possible in Access? Someone Please point me in the right direction...
I been browsing and I seen a few statement regarding a timestamp that displays when you create a new record so each new record would have the time it was created. What function is this?
I am trying to add a user stamp in a table. I have seen online that perople put a macro (Before Change) in microsoft access 2010 but I dont understand how to use that.
I have seen you are suppose to do something with = Environ("username")
Desperately need a kick in the butt to restart the cognitive functions.
Am attempting to prepare a FY (1 Jul 05 - 30 Jun 06) rollup of services provided. Have done this for years with very little stress. Lost my notes in a melt-down and now it seems I'm lost.
Situation:
Properly normalized recap of various (about 15) services provided to clients over the one-year period. Created a cross-tab query that sums each of the services and displays columns for each service (represented by ServiceID, e.g. 2019, 2020, etc.)
The cross-tab works perfectly, just now need to turn it into a report. Try to use the Report Wizard, based on the cross-tab. Problem is, it returns no fields to select. Changed strategy and attempted to turn the cross-tab into a make-table query, which, I understand would return a spreadsheet-style table. For these purposes, that's exactly what I need and have examples going back 5 to 6 years how this worked wonderfully.
The cross-tab -> maketable works, but it reverts to the original normalized structure, which is not what is needed.
If someone can help to put me out of my misery, I offer my first-born as a small token.
