Filling A Null Date Field

Mar 27, 2006

So I went searching through the forums and found a thread that provided coding for getting the # of years and months from two dates:

Function fAgeYM(StartDate As Date, EndDate As Date) As String
'Purpose: Returns the difference between StartDate and Date in full years and months
'To call:
' ? fAgeYM(#1/21/04#, #1/19/06#)
'Returns:
' 1 years 11 months

Dim intHold As Integer


intHold = Int(DateDiff("m", StartDate, EndDate)) + _
(EndDate < DateSerial(Year(EndDate), Month(EndDate), Day(StartDate)))

fAgeYM = Int(intHold / 12) & " years " & intHold Mod 12 & " months "

End Function
------------------------------------------

That's perfect for what I'm wanting but I'm doing it with Hire/Term dates. So I want to be able to see how long past and present employees have worked in the company. Obviously that makes the Term field Null at times. With the coding above it requires a date to be in the EndDate field. How can I change it to allow for a null field in which the field would essentially be the current day's date? [Now()]

Forms :: Filling Field With Date When Record Has Been Modified

Jul 20, 2015

How do I set up a field so that when the record has been modified, the field is automatically filled in (or replaced) with a date? In other words if I open up my member's detail form, and go to Sally Smith and edit her information on 11 July 15, that date is saved into a field called last modified and then updated every time I go into her file and edit & save it.

Filling Null Characters With Zero Character

Dec 6, 2006

Hey ppl. I run a query based on a table and 2 other queries, and based on these I get Fcode field from the table and two number fields from the queries (one from each query). If the number is null in either of the fields (it can be null because the number comes from a count statement) I cannot add the 2 fields together, because I always get null unless I have a number on both of them.

Anyway because I think I've confused you enough the title describes best my needs. How to put zero character within a query to replace Null?

Can this be done?

Thanx in advance
Kyriakos

Forms :: Not Able To Set Date Field To Null Value

Sep 4, 2013

I have a form that runs a search query.

I have an error trap set on a date field.

If (DataErr = 2113) Then
Select Case Screen.ActiveControl.Name
Case "DA_Start"
MsgBox "invalid date", vbExclamation
Me.DA_Start. = Null
End Select
Response = acDataErrContinue
End If
End Sub

This will pop up the error message, but will trigger the debuger when gettin to "Me.DA_Start = Null"

DateDiff Value If Same Date/field Predates/is Null

Sep 24, 2004

I'm really lost on this one...
How do I find the # of days it takes to complete a task between two date fields.
For example:
[DateRec] field is the field the app was first input to the database. [DateNumb] field is the date the first task was completed. So I understand,
=DateDiff("dd", [DateRec], [DateNumb]))
But I'm getting an #Error because often these two dates are the same date/equal, Or/ the DateNumb field may pre-date the DateRec date. Or/ one or both fields might be Null (blank). How do I set the formula on this?

Bottomline,I need to find the average # of days it takes to complete a task between two date fields for all tracking records. How do I do That???? HELP!

With Form_frmMainForm

Modules & VBA :: Creating New Field In A Table With New Date - Result Type Is NULL Error

Sep 23, 2014

I'm new to programming with Access but am attempting to create a new field in a table with an new date based on existing fields in the table.

The current fields are [Frequency], integer, [Risk], text, [Last Audit Date], date/time, and the new field is [Next Audit Date]. [Frequency] is a calculated field based only on [Risk] and is equal to "5" if [Risk] is "Low" and is "3" is [Risk] is "Medium" or "High", and [Frequency] is blank if [Risk] is (thus far it has never been empty).

What I need the new calculated field to do is return "N/A" (or blank, or anything easily separated really) if [Frequency] is blank, or if [Risk] is "Low" or "Medium". If [Risk] is "High", [Next Audit Date] should be equal to [Last Audit Date] plus 3 years. When I try to save the code, I get this message: "The expression could not be saved because its result type, such as binary or NULL, is not supported by the server."

This is my code now:
IIf(IsNull([Frequency]),"",IIf([Risk]="Low","N/A",IIf([Risk]="Medium","N/A",IIf([Last Audit Date]="N/A","N/A",[Last Audit Date]+Year(3)))))

Field Criteria: Is Null; There Are Null Values In That Field; No Records Are Returned

Nov 16, 2007

I think the title pretty much sums it up....

I have a query where data is first sorted by user input; first field's criteria: [fieldname], then by another field's criteria: Is Null.

I know there are records containing null values in the second field, as I have run a select query with the criteria: Like "*", to make sure they are null, and not zero-length-strings.

The query is refusing to return any results...

Any ideas?

Auto-filling A Field Based On Entry In A Separate Field

Jul 17, 2015

I am creating a database tracking physicians and their contracts. I currently have two tables: PhysicianT and ContractsT, with corresponding forms to enter information in them. I have an issue with the Contracts form; I want to be able to select a physician from a dropdown list (looked up from PhysicianT) and have Access autofill their Physician ID #.

PhysiciansT looks like this:

physicianID (AutoNum) name (Calculated)
1 Barker, Bob
2 Burgundy, Ron
3 Stark, Tony

Upon selecting Barker, Bob from my dropdown list, I want "1" to appear in the Physician ID # field in my Contracts form.

Forms :: Filling Multiple Date Fields In The Form With First Value

Mar 3, 2015

I have a table where I use 3 date fields in, all with different views.

Field 1: Date as dd/mm/yyyy
Field 2: Quarter: q (shows the same date, but then as quarter of the year.
Field 3: Year: YYYY

Now I have a form that fills all of my fields, but is there a simple way () to populate the other two fields Quarter and Year from the value I entered in Date?
So if I change Field "Date", Fields "Quarter" and "Year" updates as well.

Maybe I don't need to do it in the form, but in the table?

I'm not that good with VB- scripts, and I'm not sure If it is possible to auto populate the table field Quarter and Year directly in the table itself.

Filling A Field

Nov 14, 2007

Hello!

What I am trying to do is fill a field with a date until a new date is encountered. Basically, I have imported some csv data which only has the date when it changes. I have created a new field and have a row with only the date in it. Is there a way to fill the rows below the date row with that date until the next date row is found and then continue on with the next date and so on. Here's what the database looks like, basically:

Date Field1 Field2 Field3
01/01/01 null null null
null DATA DATA DATA
null DATA DATA DATA
null DATA DATA DATA
null DATA DATA DATA
01/02/01 null null null

Hopefully this makes sense and someone can give me a hand with this! Thanks so much!!

Automatically Filling A Field

Jan 25, 2006

This is probably very simple to do, but, I am most likely missing the obvious...
I have 3 fields,
UnitPrice,
NumberPerUnit, and
NumberPerUnitCost.
I would like to have the NumberPerUnitCost field filled automatically based on what I have entered into the other 2 fields. I would also like to have this saved in my table as I will use this single unit cost when calculating some production costs.
Any and all help would be appreciated. If I am going about this the wrong way, please redirect me.

Thanks, Karen

Auto-filling Fields Based On Another Field

Dec 7, 2004

hi all...

i am the biggest of all newbies when it comes to access and understand only the graphical parts of the process (no SQL knowledge etc.).

how would i go about auto filling a certain field based on what's in another field? for example, i have a field called TimeZone that i want filled with either West, East, Central, or Mountain based on another field for State. can i build a query to automatically take care of any empty fields for TimeZone that haven't already been filled out by me manually?

if i need to use SQL, that's fine too as long as the directions are clear and precise as i have no prior knowledge.

thanks a bunch.

Forms :: Filling Holes In Primary Key Field?

Aug 5, 2014

I've imported some historic user data from some spreadsheets and I have a field which is a unique PIN code for each user. This is set as the primary key on my new table. Duplicates are not allowed. It's a text field with values ranging from 0005 through to 9576. The maximum allowed range of values will be from 0001 to 9999. There are currently only 300 records in the table so as you can see, there are lots of PINs available for use.

I'm building a form to allow a new user record to be created and want to automatically allocate the next available PIN. So if I was entering a new record now, the PIN to be allocated would be 0001.

how I can create an event for creating a new record that looks up the next available free PIN.

Limiting And Filling Fields Based On Another Field

May 1, 2014

The database I am building is for Student & Alumni administration at a non-profit culinary school. In the various forms for entering student information and for defining tests and recording test scores, I would like to not have to re-select things like Class Number or Test number.

I was able to use the Test Number field as Link Master, Child in a Test Results sub-form where Test Parameters is the Master form. But I am not able to link with the Class Number, getting the error message: "The setting you entered isn't valid for this property" even though it is one of the Suggested Link Fields. The form record source is a query linking the Class Table, Test Parameters, Test Results and Students.

I noticed that I can eliminate both Class Number and Test Number from the sub-form. In the underlying query, both these fields are updated. However, the underlying Test Results table does have the Test Number but not the Class Number. While there is still a "queryable" link from the student to the Class Number, I would very much want the Class Number to be stored in the Test Results table.

Is there a way to accomplish this through the sub-form Link Master/Child property or any other/better way to inherit both the Class Number and Test Number in each Test Results record entered?

Queries :: Filling Blank Field Into All Records Of Database

Nov 22, 2013

I am working with an inherited database. When this database was created, a large amount of data was imported. Over the course of time, I have added additional fields for tracking information. One such field is "Date Started."

Unfortunately, there are almost 500 records without this information and that is skewing some report results.

I would like to do is insert the date of 9/9/1999 into all records that have no data in this field. (This date is well before the creation of the database and would serve to indicate old records, whether or not they are still active.) Copy and pasting isn't working, and I can't do a find and replace, since there's nothing to find.

Queries :: When Date Null Return Today's Date

Aug 8, 2013

I have a query where I display the [OPEN DATE] and [CLOSE DATE] of my cases. However, when I run this query sometimes the cases are not closed yet, therefore there are null values. However, I also have a field to calculate the datediff between these two dates. I need the [CLOSE DATE] field to display today's date when it is a null value so that I can still get a count of the days using datediff when I run the query.
