Can anyone tell me if the following is possible in a table or do I need to use a form.
I have a check box in a table that when I check it I want it to automatically enter the current date. I also don't want to change the dates that have already been entered manually and that date should only display the date on which the check box was checked. :confused:
It is a database that hold the details of IT equipment and when it is disposed.
I think I may have to use a form but I would like someone to confirm this if it is possible to do in the table could someone also help me implement it.
I have a combo box with a list of statuses. When I change the status to "closed" I want the "closed date" field to be populated with the current date and time. How do I accomplish this?
know an easy way to use the enter key to automatically run a macro?
I have a login form which works fine. However, at the moment the user needs to type in username and password and then manually click on a 'log in' button. What I would like to happen is that if the user presses enter on the keyboard it will run the same macro as the log in button but without have to click on it?
I have a form where I select either "Male" or "Female" via tick box. If male is selected I would like it to automatically enter "he" in my table in another field so I can use this info in a Word template letter.
I have a table with 715K records. Each record is an inventory product, and the sixth field of each record is a short description. The tenth field is a single-letter category designation, and is currently blank. What I want to do is search through the description field of every line, and where the word "Paint" is contained, enter a letter "P" in the category field.
We use access to enter our service tickets in at work.What we have are three date fields.
Call Date Start Date End Date
We are 24/7 operation.Currently all 3 just autopopulate with the current date.What i would like to do is ADD a CHECKBOX next to each Date Field.And make it work like this.
1. let them autopopulate as they are currently 2. if you end the call AFTER MIDNIGHT (the next day). CHECKING the box would automatically populate yesterdays date in each of the fields that has the check box CHECKED
I have a form where the user enters a date into a field (box 1). Next they select a time frame in days from a drop down (box 2). What I want is for Access to take the date entered from box 1 add the number of days selected from box 2 and place the new (later) date into box 3. From there I can run simple queries. It's for a small data base to track the recall of pacemaker patients.
I enter their appointmet (today) date 1st box and then select whether they should return in 30, 90, or 180 days for a follow up 2nd box. When I choose the interval I want a 3rd box to automatically show their next appointment due date.
I am obviously not an Access expert and I think this should be simple. But 3 cups of coffee and 2 handfuls of my own hair have taken me further from a solution. THANK YOU for looking!!
Below is the expression I have in a query. I have a Combo Box on a form that will show all my query's so the one need at the time can be selected. My question is: is there anyway when I select this query to run from the Combo Box on the form that I can input the date range on the fly? The date range will change periodically and I would like to somehow input the date range when running the query from the Combo Box.
FORMS: DCount("[Date_of_Change]","all_trucks_table","[FORM #]=True AND [Date_of_Change] Between #06/30/05# and #07/31/05#")
I have a date/time field on a form. I have a calculation that adds number of days to Date() and enters the answer in the field. Example:Date()+30. If the answer comes on a week end, can I get the date entered to be the next occuring week day? Thanks
At work I can enter +15 in a date field and it automatically sets the date 15 days after todays date. Our companies computer is operating on a ERP system. I would like to do that in an Access database I'm designing for a friend. Any hints.
I want to force the users to plan their work at least one day in advance. I need to know how to enter a plan date that is one day in advance. If you do planning today you can only enter a date from tomorrow onwards. Access must not allow you to enter a date earlier than tomorrow.
Hi all,I'm working on a library database for a small collection.I have two fields, 'Date Out' and 'Date IN'. Is it possible that whatever date is written for the date taken out, I can set the 'Date IN' to be 7 days later than that date?Thanks in advance.
the people that i am creating a database for are wantingto have a "date" field but they dont want to manually input it. they would like the date to automatically update to todays date when they start entering the details.
I am trying to clear a textbox after the user enters an invalid date and I do not know why the following code is not working:
Private Sub txtStart_AfterUpdate() If Not IsNull(Me.txtStart) Then If Not IsDate(Me.txtStart) Then MsgBox "You have not entered a valid date" Me.txtStart = Null Me.txtStart.SetFocus End If End If End Sub
I would like to enter a week dates forward after looking up the last entered date. i have working codes that looks up the last date and increments it by one and enter the date into a new field.
Here is what i have:
Private Sub Form_AfterUpdate() Dim dtmNextDate As Date Dim dtmLastDate As Date Dim SDate As Date LastDate = Nz(DMax("[SDate]", "schedule"), _ DateAdd("d", -1, Date)) NextDate = DateAdd("d", 1, LastDate) CurrentDb.Execute "INSERT INTO Schedule(SDate) VALUES ('" & NextDate & "');" End Sub
enter dates into 5 new fields instead of one using a loop maybe.
In my Access form, users update 4 checkboxs when their work is completed, when this 4 boxed checked then the 5th checkbox will check automatically using afterupdate. Now i have added the 6 the column with date completed, here i want the date to be updated automatically when the 5th column is checked automatically. how to do it?
