Forms :: Setting Text Box Format To Short Date And Optional Short Time

Jun 21, 2013

I want to be able to set text boxes so that if one enters a date and a time it displays in the format "dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm", but if one just enters a date is displays in the format "dd/mm/yyyy". Is this possible?

Stipulating "dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm" means that when you just enter a date it adds "0" values for the time e.g. entering "21/6/13" gives "21/06/2013 00:00".

General Date allows for an optional time, but it means that when you do enter a time it gives you seconds as well "dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm:ss" - and I don't want that.

Adding And Subtracting Short Time Values Together/changing Short Time Into Minutes

Dec 9, 2004

Hello again,

I think my subject heading explains it. How would you add or subtract two short time formatted values and produce a short time value? Also, how would you change a short time value into number minutes. (i.e. 5:30 into 330) Thanks!

Forms :: Short Time Within Auto-filled Text?

Aug 14, 2014

I have two fields that are in short time format, and are saving the information to the table in short time format.

I then have a field that I have set to auto-fill under the chosen circumstances, with a text roughly as follows

Code:
Dim Story As String
Dim IDepTime
DimADepTime
IDepTime = [InstructedDeparture]
ADepTime = [ActualDeparture]
Story = "This person was instructed to leave at " & IDepTime & " but did not do so, instead departing at " & ADepTime & "which caused us a problem"
me.txtnarrative.value = Story
End Sub

This all works, however the times being displayed are in hh:mm:ss format, when I only want hh:mm format - how do I tell it the format I want?

Time Format - Short Time Displayed As Medium Time

May 23, 2006

I have an application with a backend db on PC 1, and the same application on PC 2 linked to the backend db on PC 1 via the network.

The link works fine but the time formats are different.

On PC 1 the time format is shortime and displays as it should i.e. in 24 hour clock format

However on PC 2, opening the same database via the network, the time format is still shorttime but when you read the time within the code it comes out in AM/PM format. Also, when the defaul tiem should be #20:00:00# but this changes to #8:00:00 PM#

Weirdly though, when you just open the table, the times are in the correct shorttime format.

Guessing, it must be a setting within the main core of Access 2003 that is different between the 2 instances?

Any ideas?

This screen shot may help:

Queries :: Append Time Onto Short Date

May 14, 2013

I have a totals query that displays the sum of what products we ship each day. A process in the system automatically assigns the date/time to a ShippingDate field when an item is marked as despatched.

The totals query allows users to view what products are shipped between a period specified by the user.

The problem I am getting is that when the user inputs dates into fields [txtStart] and [txtEnd], the query fires up but will not display any records as a start time 00:00:00 and end time 23:59:59 was not input.

I don't want users to have to do this but cannot think of a way around it. My criteria code in the query for the shipping dates is

Code:
Between [Forms]![Switchboard]![txtStart] And [Forms]![Switchboard]![txtEnd]

Can I append the start / end time onto the code above somehow or is there another method I can utilise that is probably so glaringly obvious I have missed.

Usually a query allows me manipulate a field property sheet but in this case there is nothing obvious to select like format.

Forms :: Short Text Fields With Scroll Buttons?

Most my short text fields on my form are normal, but some have scroll buttons like a memo box and it's annoying, especially because the user can't jump to the next field by pressing return.

How do I make them normal?

Short Time Entry

Jan 5, 2008

I'm trying to refine another of my time entries. To enter a Short time (eg 10:35), I have to type in the four digits AND the semi-colon in the middle.

I would like to be able to enter only the four digits with Access making it into the correct format.

I have achieved a similar effect in Excel using code like

TimeVal = Left(Value, 2) & ":" & Right(Value, 2)

I tried writing something similar in the Before_Update Event, but it was rejected!! Any ideas? - Thanks, Andrew.

Convert Short Time To A Number (seconds)

Feb 26, 2006

This must have been answered before, but I can't find it by searching so sorry for the dumb question.

I input a time in hours and minutes in a field with a Short Time format. I would like then to convert this to seconds in a field with a number format so that I can total the seconds and then add them to the results of a calculated DateDiff control to get the grand total of time spent on a project.

Any help would be gratefully received.

Cheers

Rob

Adding Short Time In Query And Report

Apr 2, 2008

I am trying to add hours entered in a short time format. For example 08:15 or 02:55. I also would like it to give a total number of hours beyond 23:00. Here is a table with a Name Column and Hours Column

Name Hours
BETTER,HEATHER 8:00
BETTER,HEATHER 8:00
BETTER,HEATHER 5:41
BETTER,HEATHER 2:35
BETTER,HEATHER 1:15
WILLIAMS,R 2:30
WILLIAMS,R 0:45
WILLIAMS,R 11:20
WILLIAMS,R 8:25
WILLIAMS,R 8:15
WILLIAMS,R 10:20

How do I

A) write a query to add up the hours. I believe Heather would total 25:31 Hours.

B) Show this same total in a report? In my report I had a Name Footer which showed "=Sum([hours])". Will this work once the query is right or will I use the "=Sum([totaltime])"?

Also, is it possible for you to respond in a SQL statement so that I can copy? Thanks.

Short Time Not Working In Make Table Query

Mar 8, 2006

I've set up a query to calculate the difference between 2 time fields. I set the property to short time.

The thing is - when I run the query in a Select query, the times in the column which contains the difference, appear correctly : ie hh:mm, but when I run the same query in as a make table query, the time difference field (although I have set the property to short time) appear something like this:

0.664464564646

Can somebody please tell me how to make it that the time difference results field in my make table query appears as hh:mm??

Thanks in advance - nelld

Database Heavily Increasing In Size Over Short Space Of Time

Dec 5, 2007

Hi all

I have a database I built for my employers that is accessed by up to as many as 50 users at one time. It is a relational database. I did a compact and repair this morning which changed the BE from 215MB to 45MB. I went to lunch and came back and the database is now 58MB. Does anyone have any ideas as to why it has increased by 13MB within an hour? There is no way this is caused by geniune data records.

Thanks

Modules & VBA :: Code That Creates A Long String That Works Most Of Time But Sometimes Gets Cut Short

Nov 5, 2014

I have the following code that creates a long string that works most of the time but sometimes gets cut short. I can't understand why it does this. When it cuts the string short it cuts it short in the same place. Everything gets in the string up to/or about the following code '</Practice Name>'This string is needed to upload info to a server.

Code:
dim msg as string

msg = "<?xml version=""1.0"" encoding=""utf-8""?>" & vbCrLf & _

Selecting A Short Date In A Range

Aug 11, 2006

I have a field defined as Date/Time Short Date which shows values like 8/01/2006, 8/10/2006, etc and I need to select dates in a range.

However, when I write a query with code like:
SELECT AMOUNT
FROM INVOICE_TBL
WHERE PICK_UP_DATE BETWEEN 08/01/2006 AND 08/31/2006

It doesn't pick up the records I also tried >= <= with the same results.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Tables :: Difference Between Short Text And Long Text?

Jul 31, 2013

What is the difference between "short text" and "long text"? Both seem to have 255 characters limit. I have Access 2013, and I found a solution, that you can use Memo instead of Short text. But the problem is, that there is no "memo" data type in Access 2013. So that won't work for me.
