Date Formatting (General Date To Short Date)

Aug 5, 2005

I am creating an online post, similar to a guestbook. When a user submits an entry, I am storing the date and time in a column titled "Timestamp", which is formatted 8/4/2005 9:16:58 ("General Date"). I am running the table through a query which is then posted on the web.

What I would like to do is this: I would like to use Timestamp to display the date that the entry was submitted, but not the time (basically, "Short Date"). Can I exclude the time using a query without changing the actual data stored in each record of the table? I understand that the time stored is completely different than the time displayed, even in the table. How can I do this?

Short Date Appearing As A Long Date In Combo Box

Nov 16, 2006

Hi people,

I could do with some help,

I have a combo box which holds a list of times which I have entered in it.

eg. 08:00, 08:30, 09:00 09:30, 10:00

I have set the format of the combo box to be short time 00:00

However, when I move the value that has been selected in the combo box to either an sql query or a text box say...

Me.txtbox1.value = me.combo.value

When the value is transferred I get a long looking time like this 08:30:00

Can anyone tell me why this is happening and how I can get it to just appear as a short time like 08:30

Many Thanks
Jay

Forms :: Setting Text Box Format To Short Date And Optional Short Time

Jun 21, 2013

I want to be able to set text boxes so that if one enters a date and a time it displays in the format "dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm", but if one just enters a date is displays in the format "dd/mm/yyyy". Is this possible?

Stipulating "dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm" means that when you just enter a date it adds "0" values for the time e.g. entering "21/6/13" gives "21/06/2013 00:00".

General Date allows for an optional time, but it means that when you do enter a time it gives you seconds as well "dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm:ss" - and I don't want that.

But I want to use this data with Date value for some calculate as backgroud process.

So...

In case of new data, Database will be store my data as CurrentDate with Time that my staff key in.

In case of data update, Database will be store my data as ExistDate with Time that my staff may update.

What should I do for solve my problem?

Reports :: Report Won't Sort By Date When Query Contains Date Formatting

Jun 21, 2013

A few months ago I created a report that displays the results of a long union query comprising a dozen or so individual queries, each containing an expression that yields a date (or sometimes date and time). I set the report to group by query and then sort by the date expression. Now for some reason that I can't fathom the report has always only ever offered me the option to sort the date "A to Z", I infer it thinks the date is text, but this misunderstanding has never actually stopped it sorting by date perfectly well. It worked. No problems.

However I have recently added formatting to some of the queries so that they just display date, not date and time e.g. Format([dateandtime],"dd/mm/yyyy"), and now the sort by date in the report no longer works. None of the sorting or grouping options have changed, but it now sorts just by the "dd" component of the date - so it thinks 21st June is later than 20th July. why?

General :: Conditional Formatting One Date Less Than Other

Aug 10, 2015

In column D I have a date (different on each row) and in Column E I have another date (again different dates on different rows)

I need Column D conditional formatted to that

If the date in column D is less than Column E then it turns red.

I tried doing one row and it was giving erroneous formatting

Need a lot of rows done.

General :: Formatting Text To Date Not Working As Expected

Sep 17, 2014

I am trying to get a text string from a table to convert to the proper date format in access 2003.

The text string is formatted as 140930 for Sep 30th, 2014 for example.

I have tried using the formula following formula: Format([PCCSDTA_DCSDIU]![DTEAVL],"mm/dd/yyyy") but this format returns the date 11/06/2285 instead of the desired 09/30/2014.

I am still relatively new to Access.

General :: Deduct Quantities Based On Date - Start From Lowest Date

Sep 9, 2014

I have attached a sample of a database.

Table 1 has all the items I am trying to sell with sell by date after which I cannot sell this item. Then in Table 2 I have forecasted sales. So now I am trying to calculate stock consumption to see if I will be left with any stock that I cannot sell.

So now somehow I need to deduct sales forecast from my stock holding but it needs to go by date i.e. consume all stock for Item 1 with date 16/09 before moving to Item 1 with sale by date 23/09.

So based on the attached example, I can see that on 16/09 I will consume only 5 cases from sell by date 16/09 and another sale is 18/09. So that would give me information that I will be left with 95 items dated 16/09, which I cannot sell because they will be out of date.

Ideally I would like also to include the logic that if Item is out of date it would move to the next sell by date.

So in this case sale of Item 1 forecasted for 18/09 (94) would consume the whole stock (50) with date 23/09 and another 44 from date 01/10

For Item 2 I can see that units with Sell by date 30/09 will be consumed on 25/09 and I will start taking stock from next sell by date which is 14/10.

Selecting A Short Date In A Range

Aug 11, 2006

I have a field defined as Date/Time Short Date which shows values like 8/01/2006, 8/10/2006, etc and I need to select dates in a range.

However, when I write a query with code like:
SELECT AMOUNT
FROM INVOICE_TBL
WHERE PICK_UP_DATE BETWEEN 08/01/2006 AND 08/31/2006

It doesn't pick up the records I also tried >= <= with the same results.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Query Date From DateTime - General Date Format Field.

Mar 10, 2006

I have a date and time stamp in a Date/Time field of General Date format (3/1/2006 7:52:25 AM).

I wish to select query on the table's Date/Time field by date portion only (3/1/2006) and not include the time portion (7:52:25 AM) of the field.

Using this expression in the query's criteria - "Between [Enter Start Date: (MM/DD/YY Format)] And [End Date: (MM/DD/YY]" will not return the date ranges as desired without also typing in the full time string.

How can the date integer be parsed out and the query properly expression ed on the criteria field without using VB?

General :: Date Field - Highlight Future Date In Different Color

Mar 25, 2014

In a date field is it possible for a date that is in the future to be hi-lighted in a different colour.

E.g. todays date is 25/03/14

So anything with todays date or previous would stay in black

24/03/14
25/03/14

but anything from 26/03/14 forward would be in red

26/03/14

Then will change to black when the 26th comes.

Short Date Property For Form Field

Mar 21, 2006

On one of my forms two of the fields are "Date Contact Initiated" and "Date Contact Concluded". I have the property for this field set to Short Date.

These two fields autofill with the current date when the form is opened. When the date for both of these fields is the same there is no problem. When the "Date Contact Initiated" is different from the "Date Contact Concluded", the user has to manually go to the "Date Contact Initiated" and change the date ( most often to the previous day.)

What is causing some confusion is that when they go to the "Date Contact Initiated" field to change the information it displays not only the autofilled date but also the autofilled time. There is another field on the form where the time for the contact initiated is to be entered.

Is there a way to format this date field to only show the autofilled date and not the autofilled time?

Thanks for the help!

Chris :)

Queries :: Append Time Onto Short Date

May 14, 2013

I have a totals query that displays the sum of what products we ship each day. A process in the system automatically assigns the date/time to a ShippingDate field when an item is marked as despatched.

The totals query allows users to view what products are shipped between a period specified by the user.

The problem I am getting is that when the user inputs dates into fields [txtStart] and [txtEnd], the query fires up but will not display any records as a start time 00:00:00 and end time 23:59:59 was not input.

I don't want users to have to do this but cannot think of a way around it. My criteria code in the query for the shipping dates is

Code:
Between [Forms]![Switchboard]![txtStart] And [Forms]![Switchboard]![txtEnd]

Can I append the start / end time onto the code above somehow or is there another method I can utilise that is probably so glaringly obvious I have missed.

Usually a query allows me manipulate a field property sheet but in this case there is nothing obvious to select like format.
