Formatting Dates
May 31, 2006I wondered if someone could point me in the right direction.
I am pulling dates from a table in the format:
7092000
11092000
How can I reformat to:
07/09/2000
11/09/2000
Thanks

Formatting Due Dates
Apr 20, 2006Hi,
Please see attachment. I have created a mini database which will hopefully help me in explaining the process.
Table1: Field1 - 8 rows/8 records
Form1: Field1 text box
So in this box I used conditional formatting to say- whenever the date is greater than 04/05/2006, turn red.
So now I scroll to record2, need to have new conditional formatting rules to apply to this record.
My understanding is that I can use the remaining 2 conditions for records 2 and 3.
But what about records 4,5,6 & 7.
For example in record 4 I need the date to be greater than 02/15/2006, and record 8 to be greater than 05/09/2006-and as you can see when you scroll down to record 8 it has already turned red because it is governed by the rules in record1!
Hopefully this makes sense!
Is there a way to get around this? Is conditional formatting the only way to achieve this?
If it's not what would I do?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Formatting/filtering On Dates
Oct 11, 2005
I am trying to get fields highlighted when they are due. In my report I have dates listed by month they have been on stability. I need to highlight the date when the month/year is current. Example in the report the 12 Month column is all due in Oct of 2005, I would like for it to be yellow to designate it different from the other date columns. I have tried the conditional formatting with:
field value is between DateSerial(Year(Date()),Month(Date()),1) And DateSerial(Year(Date()),Month(Date()),31)
This works well for everything, except that it is not specific to the current year only. It will pull dates in Oct 2006 as well.
I would also like to generate a report that will use a similar filter to add to my queries that would only print the due dates. I can insert this same code, but need to refine it to only show the month due, not every pull date for the particular record. So on a new report I can have Lot XYZ with pull dates for only 12 Month, which is the current month.
Thoughts?
Please help, I am in a time cruch.
Thanks.
Conditional Formatting Using Dates
Oct 14, 2005Hi,
I'm trying to conditional format a report to show up dates that occur in the past.
The formula I'm using is:
Expression Is: [EntryB].Value<Date()
The report is doing strange things though, in that some of the dates in the past are formatting correctly and some aren't.
I've played around putting brackets in the formula above, but to no avail.
Is my formula wrong?? Any suggestions appreciated!
Thanks
Conditional Formatting Upcoming Dates
Mar 10, 2006Hi
I have a form with a field "expiry date" . I want to apply conditional formatting to use as a reminder to show when the expiry date is approaching (say 1 month) and to leave in that style until a new date is entered.
Thanks
Conditional Formatting In Reports Using Dates
Sep 1, 2005In my report I have date fields that span over 5 years with different pull dates ex. 3, 6, 9,12,24,36,48 and 60 months. I have successfully formatted these fields using the conditional format by:
Expression Is Date()<[9 Month] and Date()>[6 Month]
for the 9 month field and so forth for each field. This has allowed me to highlight the field that is the next upcomming date. One report I have this works fine for, very simple report. In a more complicated report, I have moved the fields together and have highlighted every other row to segregate them this formatting does not work. It will highlight the field, but it will pull in earlier dates, from 2004. Is there another way to format the fields with conditions other than the condition format? Possible to do it in code similar to highlighting every other line? The example I followed was here:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q210392
I will be out and about for a couple of days, but will return any replys to questions when I get back.
Thanks
General :: Conditional Formatting Dates
Oct 29, 2013I am trying to get my expiration date field to highlight a certain color once the date comes closer.I have weapons qualification dates. The user will input the date he/she qualified and then a expiration date (6 months from that day) automatically pops up.
Now what I want to do is once the expiration dates gets closer is change the color. So when it is 90 days from expiration it would highlight yellow, and when its 30 days away it would highlight red. I believe this can all be done through conditional formatting, but for the life of me I cant figure it out!!
Conditional Formatting Of Dates By Fiscal Year?
Mar 30, 2015I've got the conditional formatting thing down and am able to determine if a date is close to expiring by using 'value is less than now()+30', but I'd like to replicate the same thing, but the expiration date is based on the fiscal year (October to October).
The date entered is the date of qualification. How can I conditionally format to fit my needs?
Reports :: Apply Conditional Formatting For Dates That Were Equal To Date And Plus 14 Days
Apr 27, 2015I have a field that displays a date on a form.
I set the conditional formatting to be
Value is Between Date() and Date() + 14
It would only apply the formatting for dates that were equal to the date and +5 days.
I then tried Between Now() and Now() + 14
Same results
I then tried Between Date() and DateAdd("d",14,Date())
No change
I checked the property for the box and the back style is normal.
I am making the back color a light red. I tried to change the fore color red. Nothing.
I displayed what Date() was giving me in a text box control and I displayed what Date() + 14 was giving me in a text box control. They both were showing the correct dates, but my date, which was in between them, was not changing colors.
Forms :: Default Formatting Option In Conditional Formatting Dialog?

View 1 Replies View RelatedQueries :: Access 2007 - Select All Dates Between Two Dates?
Apr 9, 2015I have a table of records, which has within it two date fields (effectively, a 'start' and 'end' date for that particular record)
I now need to create a query to perform a calculation for each date between the 'start' date and the 'end' date
So the first step (as I see it anyway) is to try to create a query which will give me each date between the two reference dates, in the hope that I can then JOIN that onto another query to perform the necessary calculation for each of the returned dates.
Is there a way to do this?
So basically, if for a particular record, the 'start' date is 01-Apr-2015 and the 'end' date is 09-Apr-2015, can I produce a dataset of 9 records as follows :01-Apr-2015
02-Apr-2015
03-Apr-2015
04-Apr-2015
05-Apr-2015
06-Apr-2015
07-Apr-2015
08-Apr-2015
09-Apr-2015
(The *obvious* solution would be to create a separate table of dates, from which I could just SELECT DISTINCT <Date> Between #04/01/2015# And #04/09/2015# - but that seems like a dreadful waste of space, if that table is only required to generate the above? And it would have to cover all possible options; so it would either have to be massive, and contain every possible date - ever! - or maintained, adding new dates as necessary when they are required. Seems horribly inefficient!)
Is it possible to just select each date between the two reference dates? Or can you only query something which exists somewhere in a table?
Subtracting Dates From Adjacent Dates In Same Column
Sep 7, 2006Hiya-
I have a database with 5000 entries, corresponding to about 10 entries for about 500 people. Each of the entries is dated, and I need to calculate the time intervals between each person's sequential entries in the table.
One way of doing this is to create another column that contains the date of the previous entry. I can then use DateDiff to subtract one date from the other and give me the difference in days.
This approach falls down if I then work with only a subset of the entries - I would have to re-enter the previous entry dates as the time intervals would have changed.
What I really need is a way of subtracting the date from the date in the cell directly above it. Will Access let me do this, or is there a better way?
Many thanks, Jules.
Queries :: Count Dates Between Dates In Two Tables
Jul 8, 2014I have two tables with dates. Between (!) every two following dates in table1, I want to know the number of dates in table2. How do I write an SQL query for this? The tables I have are up to a few hundred records in table 1 and a few thousand records in table2. So to prevent that this takes hours I need a fast query.
To explain the query I need, for example:
table1
01/01/2014
15/01/2014
17/01/2014
30/01/2014
table2
01/01/2014
02/01/2014
05/01/2014
17/01/2014
18/01/2014
20/01/2014
21/01/2014
25/01/2014
So the answer of the query would be 2,0,4.
Explanation:
Between 01/01/2014 and 15/01/2014 in table 1 there are 2 dates in table2 (01/01/2014 is not included between the dates)
Between 15/01/2014 and 17/01/2014 in table 1 there are 0 dates in table 2
Between 17/01/2014 and 30/01/2014 in table 1 there are 4 dates in table 2
Summing Data Between Two Dates (When Dates Are Different Per Record)
Nov 15, 2011I have a master table which shows all transactions per record (person) over a financial year.
Each record person has a seperate package period over which their spend needs to be measured. Therefore although I have all their transactions for the year, I only want to sum their transactions between their given [start date] and [end date] which are in columns.
I need to be able to create a field which sums all expenditure per record between the start and end dates
Name Start Date End Date Invoice Date Amount
Matt 15/5/11 15/9/11 1/11/11 £100
Matt 15/5/11 15/9/11 7/7/11 £200
Matt 15/5/11 15/9/11 12/12/11 £200
In this case I would only want to sum 7/7/11 as this is between the start and end dates
I want to write something like sumif([Invoice Date] is between [start date] and [end date] - not sure where or how exactly
(The start date and end date will always be the same per person)
Is this possible in access?
Returning All Dates Between Two Dates In The Same Record?
Nov 3, 2005Hi,
Please bear with me here as it's a little involved.
I'm doing a staff profile website which includes a section where they can enter their annual/other leave details.
I decided to store their leave in two fields Start_Date | End_Date rather than each individual date that they took - the short and wide approach vs long and narrow.
This has left me needing to do a query that would return all the dates between the start and end dates inclusive.
Example:
StaffID---Start_Date---End_Date
---1-----12/12/2004--14/12/2004
Returns:
StaffID---Leave_Dates
--1-------12/12/2004
--1-------13/12/2004
--1-------14/12/2004
I appreciate i could do this using some script to loop through a recordset and build an array of dates but i wondered/hoped that it could be done using SQL.
As it is an asp page i can't use user defined functions in a VBA module in Access so the solution would need to be pure SQL.
Is this possible?
Any help v.much appreciated.

Multiple Min / Max Dates By Sequential Dates
Apr 4, 2012I have a scenario where the first three rows of date which have dates of 4/1, 4/4/ 4/6 with ndc 5513026701; next six rows that have dates from 4/8 to 4/20 with ndc 5513014801; next three rows that have dates from 4/25, 4/27, 4/29 with ndc 5513026701.
The issue I am having is I do not know how to have separate min/max dates for ndc 5513026701 since when I group by ndc 5513026701 min = 4/1 ; max = 4/29. I need to have min = 4/1 and max = 4/6 for one row and another row of min = 4/25 and max = 4/29.
Any easy way to sequentially create min/max for each ndc 5513026701? I wasn't sure how to verbalize this so I have attached a sample worksheet.....
Modules & VBA :: Process Records Without Dates First And Then Run Another Process To Split Those With Dates?
Aug 18, 2014I'm not sure if I am biting off more than I can chew. I have a text field in each record in my database (Inherited) The db has nearly 5,000 records. I would like to split the field into records in a seperate table. An Example of the table as is now;
Code:
MemberIDBoats
5882Opossum(78-80) (87-89) Otter(80-84) Opportune(91-93) Turbulent(97-00).
5883Astute Auriga Aeneas Affray Amphion
2407H34 O10 Porpoise Trenchant Tapir.
I want to create a table as follows;
Code:
MemberIDBoatFromTo
5882Oppossum19781980
5882Oppossum19871989
5882Otter 19801984
5882Opportune19911993
5882Turbulent19972000
5883Astute
5883Auriga
5883Aeneas
5883Affray
5883Amphion
Etc.
Is this possible in one hit or do I need to process the records without dates first and then run another process to split those with Dates? I say dates but the field is a text field. About 15-20% of the records contain dates which are always enclosed in parenthesis.

Formatting..
Jul 20, 2005Ok, don't know what I should title this problem as, but maybe you guys can help. The data stored on my table is formatted as Currency, however, when I Queue up the data, I also multiply it by a factor (exchange rate). Which turns the data into just a regular number. When I display this data on my form, I reformat it into Currencies again. However, when I click on the field, it shows the number in its raw format. How can I fix this so that when the user click on the field, they won't see the raw number but just regular Currency format? Much thanks in advance.

Mar 11, 2007I'm trying to format a header in a report and need some help.
The following results in "Error" if placed as the Control Source :
=IIf(IsNull([Captain]),"","Captain:" & [Captain])
Is there another way to do this?
Essentially, I want to display the word "Captain: " followed by the name if there is an entry. If there is no captain, I want to display nothing.
Thanks for the help!
