View RepliesSay I have a form and the user inputs a date, say "21/02/2014" into a text box, how can I get another text box on the form to display the day afters date ("22/02/2014").
I'm sure its really easy but I cant seem to get it to work.
I have main form call frmemployee and subform call frmlcourse subform the main form hold's employee information e.g. first name addresss the sub form hold's all the training courses that the employee has been on
I have a text box called txtnextcourse due to display when the next course due date is
Code:
=DMin("Expirydate","tblcourses","[ID]=" & [empID])
this works perfect. I have check box on my subform called ex course if this is true. I don't want the dmin to count that record I have tried
Code:
=DMin("Expirydate","tblcourses","[ID]=" & [empID]) [forms]![frmlcourse subform]![ex course]=false
I'm trying to pull a date from a table into a text box on a form tab control using DLookup and I just can't figure out what is wrong with my DLookup expression:
=DLookUp("DateOrdered","tDateOrdered","PrNumber=" & [PrNumber]) ----- (DateOrdered is short date, PrNumber is text, db is split Access 2013)
Whats missing in this expression? I've tried every criteria variant I could find but to no avail.
We use access to enter our service tickets in at work.What we have are three date fields.
Call Date
Start Date
End Date
We are 24/7 operation.Currently all 3 just autopopulate with the current date.What i would like to do is ADD a CHECKBOX next to each Date Field.And make it work like this.
1. let them autopopulate as they are currently
2. if you end the call AFTER MIDNIGHT (the next day). CHECKING the box would automatically populate yesterdays date in each of the fields that has the check box CHECKED

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am filling in a database using forms, and I would like to be able to add standard values to any field using a macro/VBA code I don't want to set up a different macro for each field though - I have around 40 different fields (to elaborate, it's a mark database for student projects, each field is a different thing I am commenting on. I want to quickly add 'Missing' or 'Good' to a field - but I also want the option of free text instead.).can't figure how to do it in MS Access.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI want to force the users to plan their work at least one day in advance. I need to know how to enter a plan date that is one day in advance. If you do planning today you can only enter a date from tomorrow onwards. Access must not allow you to enter a date earlier than tomorrow.
View 1 Replies View RelatedLooking to create two command buttons or two keystrokes sets in an Access 2007 form that will allow me to place a current date and time in any allowable field where the Cursor is presently placed. Similar to what was in Access 2000, ctl: (for the current date) and ctl shift : (for the current time).
View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to display today's date on a form. No connection to a table or anything like that just a label or such. I have a placed a text box on the form and set the Control Source to '=Date()' and it displays the date in a short form, eg. 11/11/2014.
What I want to do is display it in what I think is called Medium Date so that it displays as 11-Nov-2014. I suspect I need to place something inside those parentheses, but what?
I have a form with a subform in it. The Subform relates to a junction table.
For each record on the main form, there may be more than one record on the subform. The Subform only has one field on it (a combobox).
What I want to be able to do is have a text box on the main form that shows a concatenated list of all of the records on the subform.
For example, if I have 2 subform records, 'Yellow' and 'Blue', I want a textbox on the main form record to show 'Yellow, Blue'.
I have tried so many things I have found online (over about 5 hours, including a module called ConcatRelated) and absolutely nothing works!
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 RelatedI 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.
I have the need to display the return of my "Sum Query" to display in a text box.
I need the attached below value (40500) in the "SumofQuery" attachment, which updates every 5 minutes to display on the "StatusBoard" attachment text box.
I have been searching for a good 10 hours on how to do this and still cannot find it.
I need to know how to auto enter the date of the previous record into a new record. I have this db for my vehicle log sheets and I submit monthly a claim for the business km from my company. I usually cant remember the date of the previous claim and have to scroll back until I find the field with a date. It will be useful if the date was copied into every new record until I edit the date when I submit the claim. What I ask is during the new month all the dates will be the same until I submit the claim. I do not know how to do this, and yes I have done a search.
View 3 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to make a form that will display all records based on a single date, at the same time, in the same format each and every time?I have a table which has the following fields:
ID (Autonumber, PK)
ServiceDate
RunningNumber
BonnetNumber
Deallocate (yes/no)
Now, I would quite like to keep the form in a style similar to all the others I have, not least as I have to cater for users of all age and abilities, so keeping things as simple. I have attached an image - each row to represent a record basically, I would like the form to open and show the same layout on each day (I would place the textboxes etc in route groups); a null value would not be allowed for at least one field in each record, I could force the records to populate the form in the same way each day?
I am having an issue with the sort order on a subform.
Basically I have a main form with Client Details and a subform hich displays the associated test results for this client. Each client can have multiple test results which should be displayed in date order.
Initially the form was based on the table 'TestResults' and I set up the form with the Orderby property set to the field 'TestDate' and OrderByOnLoad set to True. This didn't work and the records were displayed in random order.
Next I tried setting up the form based on an SQL query with the field 'TestDate' sorted in Ascending order - same result. Tried this with OrderBy and OrderByOnLoad both set/unset as a pair and individually - always the same result.
How can I get the subform to display the test results in date order?
I have set up a form and only want to display the date and time that will appear automatically based on when the record was created. I definitely don't know how to do this.
The format that I'm looking for is: 07/24/13 11:45:44pm
From what I can see I would need two separate fields to accomplish this. I would prefer to only use one if possible. I would like to execute the value within the new record as it is entered. That date and time from that point should never change.
I will want to use the date and time in the future for quality control.
I have a form where the user enters a date into a field (box 1). Next they select a time frame in days from a drop down (box 2). What I want is for Access to take the date entered from box 1 add the number of days selected from box 2 and place the new (later) date into box 3. From there I can run simple queries. It's for a small data base to track the recall of pacemaker patients.
I enter their appointmet (today) date 1st box and then select whether they should return in 30, 90, or 180 days for a follow up 2nd box. When I choose the interval I want a 3rd box to automatically show their next appointment due date.
I am obviously not an Access expert and I think this should be simple. But 3 cups of coffee and 2 handfuls of my own hair have taken me further from a solution. THANK YOU for looking!!
Component that is capable of putting a timeline on an Access form and displaying records with a date-time field.
What I want, is for example:
tabevents contains two basic fields:
eventtime (datetime)
eventname (string)
eventcomplete (bool)
What I want to place on the form is a visual timeline which calculates the time between the first and last event and places all events accordingly along the line, spaced out, ideally with an arrow/marker that moves along the line as time progresses, highlighting any events that haven't been marked as complete. Double clicking on the event would allow us to mark it as complete.
I know this is a long shot, but thought it worth seeing if such a thing exists.
I have two related tables
1 Donor and
2 Donations with fields date, donor, fund and amount
I want a form to display donation details in datasheet view of fund and amount for a selected date and donor...
on the on enter event i would like my comboBox to be highlited.
Any ideas
Is it possible to use <enters> in text or varchar fields??
In this way users can easily switch to the next line instead of typing everything all together
I use Access as my grading program at school. Right now, if I want to excuse a student for an assignment, I delete that record.
What I would like to do is put an "X" or some other string into a field that is numeric and Access would ignore that score when computing the average.
A longshot, but I thought I would ask.
Thanks.
