Forms :: Conditional Formula For Monitoring - Automatic Computation Of Number Of Days
Jul 8, 2013
I would like to know how to have conditional formula (code) for my monitoring. I have the following fields for form [1]:
Date today
Date Encountered
Date Closed
No. of Days
I need an automatic computation of the No. of days until it is closed. Below is the computation I want to have:
If it is not yet closed: [Date today] minus [Date Encountered]
If already closed: [Date Closed] minus [Date Encountered]
I tried using a code builder:
If Forms![1]![Date Closed].Value<>""Then
Forms![1]![No. of Days]="[Date today]-[Date Encountered]"
Else
Forms![1]![No. of Days]="[Date Closed]-[Date Encountered]"
End if
I am trying to create an automatic unique 'number' (actually text) in a form. Here is an example of the format...
1456.R1 1456 is the project number R stands for revision 1 is the first revision
So, in this database there could be 1456.R2 etc. but there could also be other project numbers, say 2323.R1, 2323. Looking for expression I need to enter to have Access look up the last revision for a specific project and then add 1 to it?
I have a form where a start date is inputted (Inputfrm , StartDate) and a form where the end date of the process is recorded (Inspectionfrm , EndDate) and these both record in the table InputTbl as StartDate and EndDate respectively.
I have created a union query which shows a list of all the dates where there is work recorded (WorkingDatesQry and the column of list of unique dates is "WorkingDate"), and as we run a highly varied schedule depending on time of the year and order numbers I cannot just use a query which says Monday-Friday or Tuesday - Saturday.What I am trying to do is to find the number of days between StartDate and EndDate where there is a date recorded in the WorkingDates query.
Date of Birth (DOB) field etc. in one program are text - how do I make another file with the same data into number fields for Date of Birth field etc? When I copy data to file that has number fields the 09252004 is changed to 9252004. Can I get reports with the correct Date of Birth in them by moving data from text file to number file?
There is data entered monthly in file and formula has been set up for January, February etc as ---quarter: Int(([month]-1)/3)+1. I would like formula for the fiscal year for April to be counted as month 1, May - month 2, June as month 3, July as month 4, August as month 5, Sept as month 6, October as month 7, Nov as month 8, Dec as month 9, Jan as month 10, Feb as month 11 and March as month 12.
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.
hi Iam new to this can anyone help i want to be able to enter phone numbers the code that ive found only seems to allow me to enter first 3 numbers were actually the areA code has 4 can any one give me correct formula
Howdy, I'm missing something because my calculations are off on a form. I have a form with a textbox labeled "txtStartupTemperature". The value I insert here will affect another value in a textbox labeled "txtStartupTCF". If my temperature value is <= 25, I will use one formula for my calculation. If my temperature value is >25 then I will use an alternate formula. Both formulas involve exponentials. Here's the code I developed for my public function:
Public Function TCF(ByVal sngValue As Single) As Single Select Case sngValue
Case Is <= 25 TCF = Exp(3480 * (1 / 298 - 1 / (273 + txtStartupTemperature)))
Case Is > 25 TCF = Exp(2640 * (1 / 298 - 1 / (273 + txtStartupTemperature)))
Case Else
End Select
End Function
In my form's code I've inserted the following:
Private Sub txtStartupTemperature_AfterUpdate() Me.txtStartupTCF = TCF(Me.txtStartupTemperature) End Sub
I tested this code with a temperature value of 15. This should calculate out to be 0.67. Instead I'm getting 0.34. Are my formulas written correctly? If so, what else could be going on?
Hi, Im putting together a membership data base. the data base has an already existing client base which all have membership numbers in the form of first letter of there sir name, last to numbers of the year and a 4 digit number. So for example Joe Bloggs membership number would be B06001 his sister Betty Bloggs would be B06002 and the guy next door John Doh would be D06001.
What I would like to do it automate this system so everytime I make a new record when I input the sir name into the 'lastname' field on the form it checks the last Membership number and makes a new one. I wouild also like it to change the 06 to 07 when the year changes.
Ive done searches for things like this with Dmax etc but i really could use help with the code as I have no idea how to code this type of thing?
Any ideas on this oue would be great! Cheers Phill
I need to work out a couple of calculations, the number of days between an engineer starting and finishing a project, the number of days between the project being put on the database in the first place and being completed by an engineer and finally, the difference between these. These maybe simple, but I have no idea tbh (still new to access).
I have a form with the date it was added onto the database, and the engineer fills in the date started and date finished as it happens.
These run off of 2 tables BookingIntbl and TechnicalServicestbl
[BookingIntbl].[Date], [TechnicalServicestbl].[Date Started] and [TechnicalServicestbl].[Date Finished]
I have then got the fields, 'Days with Engineer', 'Days in Repair Centre' and 'Day Difference' for the answers to be displayed.
In a database, I have the following date fields that I use to track projects that start and stop.
START1 STOP1 START2 STOP2 START3 STOP3
Is there a way I can use a query to calculate the total days the project was worked on? For example if I enter 1/1/06 in START1, 1/10/06 in STOP1, 2/1/06 in START2 and 2/15/06 in STOP2, 3/1/06 in START3 and 3/30/06 in STOP3, I need to calculate the total days. I need it to work regardless if there are 3 start/stops, 2 or just one start/stop.
I imported an large Excel file with a date column consisting of 3 different date formats and need help on a query to extract the number of days. Examples of the date on that column:
In order to arrive at the required solution I have to perform a calculation, using data from each successive table record (in chronological order). The result of each calculation must then be used to arrive at the result for the next calculation.
In other words I have to update a variable based on data from each record, sorted in chronological order, and use the final result to populate a field on a form.
Is it time to break out my copy of "VBA For Dummies" and start learning how to use Recordsets?
I have created a database which allows people to enter in when they are off sick. They have to enter in the FIRST DAY of sickness and the LAST DAY of sickness. All of this information is stored in one big table - SICKNESS TABLE. There are no other date fields in that table.
I want to know how many people have been off for 5 TIMES OR MORE in a 365 day period (which may be say, from Oct 2005 to Nov 2006 - so not always in the same year).
I have managed to get a query that will count the number of times someone has been off; but that could be over, for example, 2 years.
How can I get it to tell me if someone has been off for 5 TIMES OR MORE in a 365 day period???
I've been searching the Queries Forum for help on this issue. I have a database that records loading records for a Taconite facility. Some days contain many records and on other days there are no records because of no loading activity. I create reports that group these loading records by each day, but I really need a quick and dirty report that just shows me the number of days in any month in which we had loading activity (records present). I have not figured out a way to create a query which counts the number of days in a month which contain records. I'm hope I'm explaining this well enough for someone to help me understand what to do.
I want the number of days between a specific date (roll out date) and 12/31/2005 so that I can use the number to project revenue for this year.
This is what I'm using but it doesn't give me the right number. I don't know how to transform something to a datetime variable so maybe that's the reason. Can you help me out?
Expr4: Day(12/31/2005-[Scheduled Roll Out Date]-0.49999)
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 have a contract management database where contracts have a start date and an end date. I also have a date parameter set up whereby I can show live contracts between overlapping records.
I want to be able to count the number of days for each contract that is live between the dates of the parameters.
For example my contract might run from 1st to 30th November but I might want to report from 10th October to 10th November so the number of days I need the query to return is 10 days as my contract is not live before the 1st November. Or my query might run from 1st October to 31st December, then I would need it to show 30 days as it covers the whole of this contract.
