Can I display the weekday in a label on a report? If so, how? The record source for the report has a variable "StartDate" and I want to show the day of the week (Monday, Tuesday, etc) of this date in a label.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI used the format text box in my query design to generate weekdays as text from my date field. It works great. However, I was hoping to produce some graphs where I could use those weekdays as 7 categories to plot against some other data. Now I am finding that to be a problem as the "real" format is a date and when I try to change the format in excel it creates this random number. Any suggestions on how to get around this problem. Thanks a bunch.

A text box on my form automatically capitalizes the fist letter of a "weekday-word".
Like when I put in "sunday" this text box converts it automatically to "Sunday".
How can I avoid this?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to pull a date from a table into a text box on a form tab control using DLookup and I just can't figure out what is wrong with my DLookup expression:
=DLookUp("DateOrdered","tDateOrdered","PrNumber=" & [PrNumber]) ----- (DateOrdered is short date, PrNumber is text, db is split Access 2013)
Whats missing in this expression? I've tried every criteria variant I could find but to no avail.
Is there a clean way to:
1)Take two user dates as input at run time, e.g by a calendar GUI selection, or even just a string
2) Then return all rows from a table where the value of the date column is between those two values?
Thanks,

My database keeps track of training for employees, some of which expires after a period of time, which is in the tables. I need to create a query that displays only the employees and the training that expires during the next 30 days. I have a query that displays the expiration date (this field uses DateAdd and adds the expiration term to the date the employee completed the training) I am trying to add a criteria to this field. I found <=Date()+30 in my searches but that displays all of the records from 12/14 and back. I have tried all kinds of versions of this (obviously, not the correct one) and either get all records or none. (Yes there are records in the database that fall within the the period I am trying to display - that is something that I have been known to forget)
Is it because I am using criteria in a field that is based on DateAdd or what would be the correct criteria for this?
When I mouse over TEXTBOX1 I want it to display the phrase Hello World in TEXTBOX2.
When the Mouse moves away from TEXTBOX1 I want TEXTBOX2 to go back to normal.. (Empty)
How can I get the below VB to work? Or something similar.. I'm assuming a mouse move event or something
Code:
Private Sub TEXTBOX1_GotFocus()
​ Display Hello World in TEXTBOX2
End Sub
Code:
Private Sub TEXTBOX1_LostFocus()
Clear TEXTBOX2
End Sub
I have managed to develop a database for my small business and am feeling very proud of myself. However, on fine tuning I would like to introduce a Date Picker for ease of use. I have a Check in Date and a Check out Date. At the moment they are working perfectly using the Date/Time field. I want to change that field to a datepicker. I have found out how to insert the date picker and it works great when inserted on a new record BUT all the previous dates in the database change to the current date. Is there a way I can still display the previous dates in the field and also introduce a date picker?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to run a IF, THEN expression.
What I have created is :
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
If Me!Type = "Workboat" Then Me!DWT.Visible = False
End
This works fine but where the TYPE field is enetred as another category other than workboat, the DWT field is still missing. Am I missing the Else part?
Please help!
I am currently building a database incorporating critical events for a manufacturing process. The start date of the process triggers the expected dates for each critical event therefore I will simply add days to the start date to get the critical event date. How do I skip weekends. If the start date was on Wednesday the 5th and the first critical event was to conclude on the 3rd day after Wednesday the 5th I would like to have the critical event skip the weekend and move to Monday the 10th. I would like to do this within a query.

Hi,
I have been trying to calculate date difference not including weekends. I found this code to use in another thread, but am unsure of where to put it.
I am quite new to using access, so a detailed description would be very useful!!!
Here's the code posted:
intDaysInPeriod = DateDiff("d", StartDate, EndDate)
intSaturdays = DateDiff("ww", StartDate, EndDate, vbSaturday)
intSundays = DateDiff("ww", StartDate, EndDate, vbSunday)
intWeekDays=intDaysInPeriod - intSaturdays - intSundays
Thanks in advance!!

I have a table embedded in a form that data is entered on. The data to be entered is a project number, date, and a numerical value. I want the date to be entered only be on a Sunday. Is there a data validation rule to apply or do I need to use VBA? I do not know VBA!
View 3 Replies View Relatedsolve the following without using VBA or WeekName function.
Table 1: readers name, readers birthdate
Table 2: index, day (1-Sunday, 2-Monday etc.)
Query 1: readers name, readers birthdate, weekday of birthday (by WEEKDAY([birthdate])
Now what I need is somehow to link this query with Table 2 to give me the name of the day of birth for every reader.Actually I want to use table 2 as VLOOKUP table in Excel)
I have a table with 8 columns titled - Destination, Mon, Tues, Wed …to.. Sun. This is shown as "OriginalTable" worksheet in the attached example workbook. I want to create a new table from this original table that looks like "NewlTable" worksheet in the attached example. So I will have a new table that has 3 columns titled - Destination, Day, Weight. Weekdays will become rows so each destination will have 7 rows, one for each day of the week. The measure will be listed against each day of the week. Can someone please look at the attached example for me and help me with this.
Many thanks in advance.
Hi all.
I can complete this in excel no problem with monday through sunday being 1 -7, but is the same possible in access.
i.e. 12/03/08 = Wednesday.
Many Thanks Dean:confused:
Update:
DoW: Weekday([Calldate],0)
I have a column in my table for day of the week (Monday, Tuesday, etc.). What can I enter in the "Order By" table-property to order the records by their chronological weekdays? Additionally, is there a similar type of action I can perform within a related form?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to make changes to records that are 3 years old. The date format is text and it displays as Ex. "20020831" or yyyymmdd.

I have a situation where I need to extract the date from a text field to use in a select query. The date in the text field is listed at the beginning of the text field like this.
S12345678 3/21/2008 adittional text beyond here blah, blah...
the first series of numbers can be either 9 or 10 digits long, and then the date is always in this format, the length of the characters change accordingly with the date. So trying to use the Mid function only wont work.
I supposed I need to find a way to get the position of the space character in front of and after the date to use the Mid function for each record.
I need to be able to extract this date to do a DateDiff against another date.
I have been trying to do something like this.
Narr_Date: Format(Mid([si_narr_t],InStr(1,[si_narr_t],Chr(32)),InStr(9,[si_narr_t],Chr(32))),"Short Date")
But I know I am off the mark here. Can someone tell me what I am missing?
I've looked and looked and am afraid that I didn't find this because it's not possible...
The forms in my db are not the clearest, but one way of simplifying it for the users is to have them click on the calendar icon and then have a few fields automatically populate with the selected date's month, another with the year, and another with the day of the week.
Is this possible? I figured out how to have a field populated with the date, but with all of the specific queries needed, I have to do it this way...
Any thoughts? Also, is it at all possible (this is totally separate) to have an icon on the desktop that brings up a login sheet for which the entry users only see the front end, but the db admins log in and see the back end?
Thanks in advance!!

I am currently using the =Weekday([Date]) formula to show which day of the week is it, but is it possible to show the actual day not a number?
Eg instead of "1" it shows "Sunday"
Cheers
