I have a date entry textbox.
The user is copying a date from an old form.
Sometimes the form will have the date entered as 00/00/97
How can I change the month and day to 01/01 and of course leave the year as it was.
I've tried using split with no success.
I am having an issue with a database I'm creating. It is a root cause analysis database. One of the fields is Target_Date. I need to set up queries that alert us if the target date is coming up, (in a week or so), or if it is past due. The issue is that some target dates are simply, "Next Run", which is to say that the corrective action must happen on the next run of the particular item which, at that point, has not been scheduled.
In order to do the above query, the dates must be formatted as Date/Time as <date() will bring up all dates regardless of whether they are in fact less than today if they are in text format. However, this restricts the ability to put in the target_date of "Next Run". Next Run will be required for another query in which we will specify the products coming up and it will let us know which "Next Run" items associated with those products we will do.
Essentially, I have taken the long route to ask, is it possible to create a field format that measures dates as dates and text as text?
I have created a basic Volunteer Events and Hours Volunteered tracking database.
I created a form Volunteer Hours to allow an end user to use that form to record the volunteer and hours volunteered on a specific Event. There are two tables needed in the form Volunteer Hours to be used for the end users to record the Event, Volunteer, Date and Hours. The form has drill down fields from two tables:
Table A - Volunteer Events (event name, date, descr, owner, co-owner, loc, status)
Table B - Volunteers (name, co, div, emp#,title)
I want to be able to select the Volunteer Event and have the event date automatically populate in the Volunteer Hours form date field when the Event is selected to eliminate the end user from having to enter the date in.
Also; I would like to be able to add more than one volunteer at a time to an event on the form, this would also decrease the data entry time.
Are one or both of these things possible?
In my main form, there is this date entry selection and a subform with data on it.
How can I make the subform filter its data from date entry selection?
I have already created a relationships for my tables
I created a query for this subform (should I need to?)
It does not refresh my subform or I do not know what to do?
I am extremely new to Access. I have my database up and running ok(ish) and would like to know if in my data entry form, I can have the "Date Entered in Database" box display the current date that does not change from day to day. I know you can use the "Now()" function but won't this just change everyday?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a date textbox (Week_Ending) and number textbox (Staff_ID) in a form (frmHourEnter), when both have values I open another form (frmStaffReport) with textboxes (txtDateStart and cmbStaff).

I have a database for billing. In my database, I have a form that consists of a main form "Order" and 2 subforms "OrderDetails" and "Customer" OrderDetails are to enter the products to be connected to the Order. All function super, but I want to have some information from one of the forms "copied" over to on of the others.
Here is what I would like
In the subform "OrderDetails" I have made a textbox that summarize all prices to a total, his tekstbox i called "Tekst31". I would like the amount in this textbox to appear in a field "Bel�b" in the main form "Order".
I have tried some different commands, but nothing has worked, also I have made a query which dose the same ting as the tekstboks, as the information in that tekstbox it not stored anywhere.
Hi,
and again I have a problem :)
so,
In Form I have two calendar controls, and two text boxses. Based on selected date, text boxes are showing day of the year (format(Date(),"y")).
Query is based on table with records of days in year (numbers),
so, when Im trying to sort Between two numbers from Form (in this case nubers of days in year) query is reciving (imo) full date, not the number and im not getting any results.
Any non VBA ideas?
tnx
I'm tring to build a queary based on a field called "PLAN_CODE" and a policy issue date field. There are 3 plan codes ...select1, select 2 and select 3.
I want to pull information as follows
Select1 has an issue date 11 months ago (day the queary is ran)
select2 has an issue date 23 months ago
select3 has an issue date 35 months ago
I built a field to calculate the duration of the policy based on the issue date
Duration: (Round((POLICY_ISSUE_DATE]-Date())/365,1)). I think the format is wrong? need help with that!
I built a field to create a nested "IF" statement but the first "IF" is not pulling correctly, so I cant built the remaining "IF" statements.
Expr2: IIf([PLAN_CODE]="SELECT01N" [Duration]=-0.9,0).
Anyone have a better approach? Any input how to handle this? I'm not real good with VB code but have a general understanding of it. It's easier for me to build in the QBE.
Hi Folks,
I have a table of dates and a "frm Dates" based upon it. I have copied a very useful calendar control which I found on a sample datebase elsewhere on this excellent site. I want to have an [OK] button which jumps to the correct date in my frm Dates when I choose that date on my calendar, but it's getting the months and days the wrong way round. Here in the UK our favoured approach is dd/mm/yy, but to try and figure this thing out I've formatted everything as Long Date.
Further details are on the form of the attached database, I hope you can help. Non-technical answers most appreciated as I'm pretty much a greenhorn with this stuff.
Thanks all!
I have a query based on two tables that calculates days elapsed between two dates. Problem is one date field is date/time and the other is short date, so the result is always infinite decimal places. I don't want to change the date format for the date/time on the one table. I tried the format function in the query, but still ended up with decimal places.I just want to make that one long date to act like a short date for calculating "days", not hours, etc.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been trying to convert a date format like dd/mm/yy to a SAP used format like dd.mm.yyyy .
a simple string conversion like
Code:
pp = day(datefield) & "." & month(datefield) & "." & format(year(datefield),"YYYY")
is not working, the year is converted wrong.
thus 17-07-62 should be converted to 17.7.1962 ( European date format )

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a textbox on my form that is for "week of", always a Monday. There is vba to populate the appropriate Monday when the user selects something other than Monday via the date picker. This code is in the on change event. However, this is not friendly to a user entering a date in this field. I did try after update event, but that requires user to leave the "week of" field. This is not acceptable in this instance, there are other form fields that change as a result of this "week of" value.I also tried evaluating the length of the text or else exiting the code. However, I was expecting the date being returned from the date picker to always be 10 positions, but for March 3rd, it would return 3/3/2015...which is only 8 positions.

ps I have read and re read the help pages on this but still can't get it to work
I spent a pretty significant amount of time working with Access in college, but that was years ago. Now that I'm actually trying to do something practical with it in the office, I can't remember how to do anything! This board has been helpful to read so far, and hopefully you can help me with my specific question.In our system, shipping charges by unit vary between customers. I have a table set up with a field associating a customer's charge with the customer's name. The problem is, the two most common charge amounts are $0.25/unit and $0.305/unit (dealing in fractions of a cent here). Right now the field is set to show 3 decimal places, so the numbers are showing up as $0.250 and $0.305 respectively. While this works and all, I want to format the field so that when a currency figure with 2 decimal places is input, it will display only 2 decimal places, but in the event you enter one with three decimal places, all 3 places are shown (and the number is not rounded off).Can anyone help me? My database is in its beginning stages, and I'm still somewhat of a beginner, so the less complicated, the better.Thanks!
View 6 Replies View RelatedI currently have two froms, "add record" and "add record cont." The reason I have two seperate forms is because when clients create a new record information needs to be saved to two different tables and when creating one from with fields from both tables I ran into many problems. The two tables are named : tblMain, tblFileLoc Currently there is a textbox on both forms named "fileID" the FileID in the first form is from tblMain and is the primary key for that table, the FileID on the second form "Add Record Cont." is just a normal field. When clients enter in the new FileID in the first form "Add Record" and then move onto the next form "Add Record Cont." i need access to bring the entered FileID from the first form and Fill it in the FileID field in the second form. Currently I have tried making the control source for the textbox on the second form = the textbox on the first form but it brought up an error.
View 1 Replies View RelatedRight now i have a qry that takes ID - Name - Order - RepeatOrder - Month - Department.
Now when i run the qry what i want is a grand total of Order/Repeat Order by Name for the Month, what is happening is the qry is creating multiple entries for different departments. I even have Department "Group by" but still causing the issue, For example:
For APR:
4/1/14 Dep A 12 2
4/1/14 Dep B 10 2
However i do not want them separated, how to i merge the data into 1 entry? 4/1/14 22 4?
I an trying to create a data entry form (IndividualsEntryFm) to input data for fields such as (First Name),(Birthdate) etc., these to be saved to the (IndividualsTbl)
I also have another table (NamesTbl) which has family names etc. The two tables are linked by a (MainID) field. I want a combo box on the individualsEntryFm so that I can select the family name. Then I wish the empty fields for the IndividualsTbl to be available to enter data.When I press the save button I then want this data saved, together with the MainID from the combo box to the IndividualsTbl.
I have set the IndividualsTbl with a (PersonID) field as an auto number each individual therefore has a unique PersonID but may well share the MainID. I'm trying to link many people to the same address.
I am trying to save specific data from a data entry form to a specific depending on what the user selects from a dropdown/combo box.
So if the user selects "test company from the combo box, that data (from that form) will save to the Test company data table.
My aim is to have my forms open to a new record, which I have done, but if my users need to then update or edit data in previous entries, they can click a button that allows this.
My thoughts were to add a button, then put in code so that the necessary properties changed the form from displaying a new record or records entered since opening it, to showing all records in the associated table....
As an example there is a table for purchase orders. When clicking on this from the main menu form, it opens up the purchase order form to create a brand new PO. At times though, we will need to revisit an order to attach a copy of an invoice, or update the cost of whatever was purchased.
My db has multiple linked tables. As time passes and work on a project continues data needs to be added to a separate table that is linked to the first table to be populated.
i.e., Initial design data is entered first, when drilling is complete more data is added to a linked table, when drilling is surveyed yet more data is added to the second table.
What I want to be able to do is to query for a particular set of existing design data, display this on a form and on the same line enable data entry to other fields from other tables which are linked to the existing design data.
I also have a query that displays a date, I would like this date to be displayed within the textbox, not sure how to do this?
View 4 Replies View RelatedHow can i add date in textbox by simply selecting it from calendar?
View 2 Replies View RelatedShort version: I would like to know when that formula was filled out.
Long version: What I need to do is Auto-fill a textbox with the current date and time when I fill-in a combo-box and press enter/tab. Each date needs to be individual, once the date is filled in via event it should not be changed, then the next page of the formula needs to have an individual date...and so forth. In addition it would be nice if the date could not be changed at all, so no one can temper with it, for instance pressing enter again on the combo-box.
Something like this:
Formula page 1:
Name:________ Date:________
Name: Jon_____ Date:________
*press enter*
Name: Jon_____ Date: 08.04.2015; 11:31
*press enter*
Formula page 2:
Name:________ Date:________
Name: Jess_____ Date:________
*press enter*
Name: Jess_____ Date: 12.04.2015; 16:12
*press enter*
Solved all but 1 problem, I just need to find a way to stop the Date field from updating every time I update the Name field after the initial date is filled in.
I need a textbox to display the first/earliest date from a table.
RThe table is called tblIncidents and the textbox is txtFirstDate
I've considered a variable and tried with querys etc.
