With a form with two fields one is a date field formatted as short date and the other is a lookup combo box that I use to lookup predefined times and is formatted as short time. The date and time are stored in the same table as date/time in separate fields. I attempted to use Dcount, and get syntax error missing operator. Below is one of a hundred that i have tried after scouring this forum and the net. I ended up converting the Appt_Time field to a text field in the table to eliminate one date field but still got no where.
Code:
Private Sub Appt_Time_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
'Check table for duplicate
If DCount("[Appt_Time]", "tblexams", "Appt_Time= & Appt_Time & And [Sch_Date] = #" & Sch_Date & "#") > 0 Then
'Message box warning of duplication
I can't get the following DCOUNT working for the life of me: DCount("EmployeeName", "tblAttendance", "EmployeeName = '" & cboEmployee Name. Value & "'" And "AttendanceDate = #" & txtAttendanceDate.Value & "#")I have checked this forum along with Google and there seems to be no easy way to do this? I have tried editing the syntax over and over again. I have been able to run a query and get the desired result in that query; however I am unable to call that result in VBA.
I am trying to count the amount of records that were created and closed for last month but I am having problems inserting the correct criteria along with the DCOUNT syntax. DCount("*","obsvnofilterqry","(Date_Closed)=MONTH( Date())").Works fine but figuring out how to get the amount of Date_Closed for last month is proving tricky.
I am trying to figure out how to build my query that returns equipment reservations where "date out" OR "date In" are between 2 dates that are specified on my form using [Forms]![Myformname]![StartDate] and [Forms]![Myformname]![EndDate].
The purpose of the query is to find the amount of companies that have had a piece of equipment reserved between 2 dates, which could be a calendar year, or a fiscal year for example.
This is my current SQL statement that returns records where only DateIn falls between the criteria. My objective is to also return records where DateOut falls between 2 dates.
I am creating a query with criteria for a dates column. The column cotaining dates in my Table has many empty fields. I want to limit the criteria for my dates to >#1/1/2004#, but I don't want Access to exclude all the empty fields because I want all the data displayed for the purposes of my report.
What do I do? I'm not terribly familiar with Access, so please explain as completely as possible. Thanks in advance!
Not sure if this belonged in reports or queries, so I chose general. I have looked at several DCount threads but haven't quite found my answer. I want to use Dcount in an unbound textbox in a report. It counts the number of records in another table - comparison the first part of the statement works fine ( up to 'iss'"). When i added the between date part i'm not getting any # returned in my report. I want to addthe criteria of RecDate between the 2 dates on the open form. Can anyone tell me where my problem lies? ( if this makes sense)
Thanks Kevin
=DCount("[type]","comparison","[type] Like 'iss*'" And ("[comparison].[RecDate]" Between Forms!DateInputforRMAsReturned!Text0 And Forms!DateInputforRMAsReturned!Text2))
I used a DCount however this does not separate the employees. Currently using Count Of Visits: DCount("[Duration]","Test Query","[Duration]<20 AND [Employee ID] = [Employee ID]")
I have a field named Poisition_Id and a yes/no field with the name Hired, what i want is dcount under condition initially with Position_ID to Position_ID then to see the field of hired if "yes"
Example:
=dcount "a" see in tbl_open with criteria position_id = position_id with criteria hired=yes
I am working with MS Access 2003. I have a form (frmCalendar) with a textbox (tbDay) and a combobox (cmbLineName)
I want to count the number of records based on the criteria from cmbLineName, and show the result in tbDate. Inside the Control Source of tbDate I put in the following:
The problem is that the result in tbDate is always 0; regardless of what is chosen in cmbLineName. I know that the record count should not be 0 for all criteria.
DCount("*","[tblLeaveRequests]","Status='Approved' And #" & Format([vDate1],"mm/dd/yyyy") & "# BETWEEN [LeaveStartDate] AND [LeaveEndDate]")
The above code counts all leave with the status of approved on the table [tblLeaveRequests]. Great, but i did forget a critera.
Of the leave it is counting, I want it to only count if the employee the leave is for is in a particular location. which exists on the related table, and not the one dcount is calling.
Is this possible? or will i have to resort to replicated data in [tblLeaveRequests]
The following code is giving me a "Run-Time error '13' Type mismatch. I have tried isolating both criteria and they seem to be fine but joined together with "AND" they error. Workdate is a Shortdate. Flightnumber and flightID are numbers. FlightID source is a cmb within my form.
Private Sub FlightID_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
If DCount("[WorkDate]", "Main_tbl", "[WorkDate]= #" & Me.WorkDate & "#" And "[FlightNumber] =" & Me.FlightID.Column(0)) > 0 Then Do this.... End If
I have a report that I am trying to complete based on several queries. I am trying to count the number of records based on certain criteria and using the following DCount.
=DCount("[Calculated time]","IPG1","[Calculated Time] <= 0.04" And [Ship-to party] In ("SN00207PJZ","SN09162XXX","SN09324XXX"))
I want to count the number of IPG1 records that are under .04 and have the Ship-to party of the ones listed. I have tried everything that I can think of to get it to work but can's seem to get it to. I figure it's something easy but I don't see it.
I'm building a customer management database. Part of which is a table to record details of all members of the main customers family or the household compliment.
I'm currently using a DCount to work out how many people on the table are related to my client, to work out the size of the family.....
Could I also then count the members of the household that are under 16 years old by looking at the DoB from the same household members table?
I realise that I'd need to ask access to calculate age at the same time as working out if they're under 16 and then count them if they have the same Customer ID - which might need a little more than this single function!
I need to check the combination of a text box and a combo box that are bound to the same table for duplicates and then give a message box telling of the existing records. The 2 fields are set up as a compound index so access displays a generic message but I am trying to customize the message without doing it through error trapping (because I want it earlier in the processes on the form).
I am trying to us Dcount as follows but this is not working. It seems to be checking for either rather than a combination of the 2 fields because I get my message if either the Description OR the Group is duplicated (both of the text box and the combo box can have duplicates and it is only the combination that is singular) .
If DCount("[Description]", "[ItemTBL]", "[Description] = '" & Description & "'") And DCount("[Group]", "[ItemTBL]", "[Group] = '" & Group & "'") > 0 Then MsgBox "This Item is already in the database.", vbExclamation, "Already in Database"
I am having an issue using DCount to validate against 3 fields within my database. I have a booking form which contains a Staff member, viewing slot, and Viewing Date which is used to book property viewings.
I want the form to check that the booking doesn't already exist when the process booking button is pressed.
I am using the following statement:
Code: If DCount("*", "Viewing", "[Staff_ID]=" & Me.[Staff_ID] & " AND [Viewing_Period] = " & Me.Viewing_Period & "' AND Viewing_Date = '" & Me.Viewing_Date) & "'" > 0 Then MsgBox "Cannot book, booking already exists", vbCritical End If
I always get the error "Syntax Error (Missing Operator)".
Summary: Using DCount in MS Access 97 to output the name of an event and the total number of occurances per a user input date range.
e.g. the table is called EventData and it is a table of the types of car repair performed, and the fields are:
EventType Date Desciption other Time ======== ==== ============ ==== fix flat 17/01/06 comment.... 101pm brakes 15/01/06 comment... 504pm tuneup 02/01/06 comment... 725am paint fender 03/01/06 comment.. 852am
My issue is to use a subquery for intermediate results and then another query.
I would like the user to enter the start and end dates, and then for output to be:
Output:
EventType Num Occurances ======== ============ fix flat 2 brakes 5
approach 1, use subquery called SummaryQuery:
SELECT EventData.EventType, EventData.Date FROM EventData WHERE (((EventData.Date) Between [Type the Start date:] And [Type the End Date:]));
This gives me output of all the events types in the date range and the time.
Then if I query this via: SELECT SummaryQuery.EventType, DCount("*","SummaryQuery") AS TotalCount FROM SummaryQuery GROUP BY SummaryQuery.EventType HAVING (((EventData.EventType) Between [Type the Start date:] And [Type the End Date:]));
Here I am using DCount to get the num of ocurrances.. but it is not working. I get the error that "Access cannot find the name "type the start date" "
approach 2, Use only one query:
SELECT EventData.EventType, DCount("*","EventData") AS TotalCount FROM EventData GROUP BY EventData.EventType HAVING (((EventData.EventType) Between [Type the Start date:] And [Type the End Date:]));
for this, I get no output, but the query runs.
Any comments or help with this is appreciated!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi, The query statement below is meant to extract the number of References with a type code of 'M' on the table tblHDRef, then present it under a column named 'Modified':
I'm having abit of a problem with the DCount function where date fields are involved.
Basically, I have a table - TblMain. Within that table there is a field -DateRegist. The data type of this field is set to Date / Time - Format short date.
Elsewhere I have set up a form with a text box. The idea being this text box will count the number of 'DateRegist' fields where a date has been entered between two set dates. (There will be four text boxes in total, one for each quarter of the year)
When I use Date() etc in the control their are no problems. However, when I try and use an actual date it all goes pear. I figure it has something to do with it being a date field bit not sure exactly what.
This is what I have so far (don't laugh, I know its miles off the mark but I am trying)
I know I can do four separate queries, each pulling off a quarters data and then draw off the Dcount from each of them but after two days of trying to figure it out I would like to know where I'm currently going wrong - (If you consider doing to four queries will be quicker for the abstraction of the data then let me know but I would still like to know what I'm doing wrong for future reference)
Im a relative novice with access VBA, and I'm really struggling with using Dcount with date variable. All I want to do is count if a certain date appears in a table. Here is the extract from my code:
Whatever dates are in tblworkoutlogs, datecount is still = 0...I've trawled the net and tried many variations of the code but no success!if I change all the date formats to strings in the code and the tables, it works so I know i'm looking in the correct place.
I'm trying reference a dcount on two fields, one is a string and works fine, the other is on a date which does not.
I've investigated the problem and found a couple of references to making sure I use a # symbol to reference the date but I think the thing that's throwing the comparison out is that the date field stores time as well, even if you can't see it?
I thought should count the records in the healthcheck table that match the check_date field against the first_health field on the current form, but I keep getting a 0 count even though the dates seem to match.
I would like to have a text box display the number of records for a selected title that fall within a selected date range. Been looking around for a while and have this so far;
=DCount("Discussion_Title","Discussions","[Discussion_Title]='" & [cboType] & "' And [Discussion_Date] = Between ([txtStartDate] And [txtEndDate])'")
I get an #Error message. I just threw that together because it describes what I want, but I know there are syntax problems.
I am getting something wrong but I don't know what - date related.
Take this code for example:
Code: Dim varDate varDate = Date If DCount("RunningNumber", "AllocatedVehicles", "ServiceDate=" & varDate) > 0 Then MsgBox "Go Away", vbOKOnly Else Go on and do the real work End If End Sub
The DCount line is being completely ignored, no error message, it just cracks on as though there were no records found (but they are definitely there!) I have tried:
Code: Dim varDate varDate = Date If DCount("RunningNumber", "AllocatedVehicles", "ServiceDate='" & varDate & "'") > 0 Then MsgBox "Go Away", vbOKOnly
But that throws up a Type Mismatch (which is what I would expect). Then I tried
Code: Dim varDate varDate = Date If DCount("RunningNumber", "AllocatedVehicles", "ServiceDate=#" & varDate & "#") > 0 Then MsgBox "Go Away", vbOKOnly
And it gets ignored again.
I am having similar trouble trying to open another form using the same field as the open argument, and getting similar results, so it is clearly me that is wrong.
