I use some bits from both of these calender examples
http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=62606&highlight=calender
I mainly use the double-click version, but I've got two date fields (start and stop date) and use som ideas from the other for that.
When I use it in my form it works almost perfect. The only problem is when I double-click a date in the calender, to get it into the date field, the date won't update in the date field until I click another object in the form.
Why? Any ideas?
I'm using access 2003 with the calendar control 11, this works fine for entering values control whose control source is a date field.
My problem is that now I'm trying to use the calendar to update the value of a unbound textbox and it will not allow me to enter any value other than the default value of the calendar.
I have to update the unbound textbox as I want to use a button later on to update the date field and include a confirmation message before entering to avoid accidental entering.
i have 2 fields in a form - 'Balance' and 'Date'. Quite simply I need the date field to change automatically to todays date each time the data in the 'Balance' field is changed. Can anyone advise me on how to accomplish this.
Here's what I got: Table1: Case_ID, Duration Table2: Case_ID, Notes_ID, Date, Duration
Table1.Duration is populated with numeric values Table2.Duration is currently blank Table2 may contain many notes for each entry in Table1. I want to take the values of Table1.Duration and Update the last Note for each Case in Table2. Basically I no longer want Duration to be entered at the case level, I prefer it be entered every time someone makes a note entry. The problem is that I have a lot of old cases, so I wanted to migrate the data in Table1.Duration to Table2.Duration.
Friends, I have a form with a date field named PURGEDATE that has its source to a table and its' default value: =DateSerial(Year(Date()),Month(Date())+24,1).
When I open my form, the PURGEDATE Fields stored by default the above date (simply two years later than the current). Is there I was I can update this date each time the form is opened?
Hello, This is probably a very basic question, but I can't think how to answer it myself. I want to use the built-in calendar on a form, click it once, and set the date for ALL the records in the table because the table contains records that are part of a batch. Do I try to use the date selected as criteria in an Update Query? Do I try to use the date selected to set the DefaultValue for the field? I know that many disagree with the viability of the built-in calendar, but my question isn't really about the calendar as much as it is about transferring the data to every record.

I wonder if anyone can help me out on a db i have inherited. Basically I need to add a field to a table and backfill the field with a number depending on a date field.
The new field (CallID) needs to record the order in which calls are received on a certain date (CallDate in the table). So for example the first call on 1/3/05 CallID=1, the second on 1/3/05 CallID=2. The following day CallID restarts at CallID=1.
So I'm looking for an update query which will set CallID for the several hundred existing records in the database. If anyone can help with a pointer or too, or example SQL, I would be very grateful
I'm working on a school database project and I am developing a Gym subscription/registration system.
Basically, once a user enters his/her personal info, they are taken to a second form where they can enter the subscription plan type (there are three plans).
Now, this is what I'm stuck on.. When a user enters a subscription start_date, I want the next field 'Exp._Date' to update to a year later, automatically.
So for example, if you enter 09/02/2005 in the start_date field, then the next field would automatically be filled with 09/02/2006.
Is it possible? And more importantly, how? I'm fairly new to DB's so please lay it in laymens ;).
Thanks guys.
PS: A screenshot of the form is located below: http://img226.exs.cx/img226/9293/dbsc3xi.th.gif (http://img226.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img226&image=dbsc3xi.gif)
Is it possible to automatically update a date field in a form record without ever clicking in to that date field, but only because you have altered something else on that individual form record or an embedded, linked subform record? eg1. Staff details record - a) create a record for Bob Smith and 'Last Updated' field automatically inserts date b) amend record to say 'Robert Smith' and 'Last Updated' field changes to show new date, even though you never touched that date field. eg2. Risk register - main form record contains name, details, and 'Last Updated'; embedded subform allows you to add individual records of actions taken for each risk. I want the 'Last Updated' field to update each time I add an action, without amending the 'parent' risk record.
I have a form bound to a table that has a bunch of dates in it. What I want to do, is to be able to have pop-up calendars on the form next to each date field, where the user can select dates from the calendar, then have those dates display on the form, and last but not least, update the date fields in the table.
At the moment, the form I'm working with let's me pick dates from little pop-ups and display the dates, but when I exit the form and then come back into it, the dates are gone! In other words, I'm missing something in the process between the dates displaying onthe form and the dates getting into my table.
If anyone has an idea as to what I might be doing wrong, I wouldappreciate your ideas and suggestions.
Thanks in advance. I don't know where I'd be without this forum!
Hi. I have two forms that both look at the same table. One form is for inputting data and the second for is for closing the job. I want to create a button that when clicked automatically changes a field on the input form and also fills in the current date on a field displayed on the closeout form. I then want it exit my two forms and take me back to my switchboard. Can anyone out there help?..Thanks.
I am attempting to track the duration of days since an initial date.
A individual has 3 business days to have their bloodwork/labs drawn after given instructions to do so. 'StartDate'= the initial date. 'LabsDate'= current date(would like it to automatically update to the current date everytime the database is open). BD ElapsedLabs= # of days that has elapsed between the initial day and todays date.
I am able to calculate the #days elapsed no problem, but I am having a problem with 'LabsDate' automatically updating to todays date. I am able to automatically place the current date in the first/ fresh entry, but it fails to update the next day.
I have tried placing the code Me.LabsDate= date() in the Before Update Form Property Sheet. Cannot get it to work.
Is their a way to update the TotalBatches in TableA with the sum of NumBatches from tableB that have the same BatchType and falls between the FromDate and ToDate of TableA?
Having issues with getting auto update of Yes/No field dependant on todays date.
When users open the form the code runs through and checks all entries and updates the records if either of the dates in two separate fields is less than today. The issue I have is when some users are already using this form a second user cannot open it. Error shows other user information as having the form locked and code halts at highlighted spot below. Is there another way of ensuring this field is updated to Yes or No if the date in the field is less than current date.
Code: Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer) Dim rst As DAO.Recordset Dim dbs As DAO.Database Set dbs = CurrentDb
I want to be able to update a date field in my form with a command button based off the date the person picks off a combo box in my header... is this possible?
I am setting up a "to_do" list in access. One of the field is the date the task was last completed. I want a button to update that date to the current date for the record that i am viewing on the form. Below is the code that I am using. When I click on my button, it updates the first record in my to-do table but not the current record displayed in my form.
Private Sub Cmd_Update_Click() Dim DB As Database Dim rs As Recordset Dim i As Long On Error GoTo Command4_Click_Error Set DB = CurrentDb
I am new to Access. I am after a vba script to run an update query.
I have a table named MYOB_Invent. I have a Query Named MYOB_Update.
The query is showing records where my field named Test1 is null.
I want to update records with null in the field to today's date (the date of the day that it is run) formatted as 18/08/2014 and the field next to it is named Updated (which is yes/no) from un-ticked to ticked for the updated values.
I would like a vba script to automate the process as I want to automate it via a commandbutton for users.
I created a query with one expression field that updates a user inputted date field on a form. The expression adds a certain amount of time to the field (usually six months) so I know when the next inspection should take place. Everything works great except when I put a parameter in the expression field. It will not return the property dates. If I simply remove the expression, and input the date manually, it works just fine. Am I not allowed to use date parameter with an expression? It returns every date within the correct month, but will give me future years as well.
The expression is - NextInspectionDate: DateAdd("m",12/[InspectionFrequency],[LastInspectionDate])
The parameter is - Between [Forms]![Preventative Maintenance Dates]
