Forms :: How To Display Nearest Date To Expiry On Form In Text Box
Aug 7, 2014
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
Say 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 a form (Access 2010) in which i insert contracts; each contract has a start and an expiry date, but instead of dd/mm/yyyy i would like the user to be able to insert just the year, while the day and month are predefined values and they are automatically inserted (i.e. 01/10/yyyy; the year being the only value that changes, and it is manually inserted by the user).
I would like to set a pop up remainder (on form load) x days before the expiry date, but, because too many of them have the same expiry date i am wondering if the reminder can be set on different days, based on another field (i.e. partner location [country]).. i.e. reminder for contracts with Austria to pop up 60 days before expiring, for UK = 67 days and so on.. or even a specific day for each, i.e. for Austria = 01/08/yyyy, for UK 01/09/yyyy).
I have a table that archives hour meter readings for my equipment. You sharp folks here helped me set it up and it works great. Thanks! I am at the point now where I want to do some studies and calculations on this data. The first project I’m working on is equipment utilization over a period of time. I have all my calculations figured out, all I need is to pull the proper data out and run it through. And that’s where I’m a little stuck.
My table is just three fields: tblHourMeterArchive = eqnum, readingdate, meterreading. I want to be able to input a StartDate and EndDate and have the query choose the archive date that is nearest to the input date and the meter reading on those dates. For example, I have meterreading dates of 1/9/05, 1/30/05, 6/5/05, and 6/19/05. I input 1/18/05 as the StartDate and 6/16/05 for the EndDate, the query should return the archive dates of 1/9/05 and 6/19/05. How would I go about doing this?
I’ve done some research on “nearest date”, but most of the information has been about doing it in VB and SQL. Can this be done without going into coding? I’m still very much a novice when it comes to VB code. Ultimately, I would like to have this work with a form and calendar controls. I’ve been studying some of the examples and suggestions for the calendars, but I’m not really sure how I would go about setting up a query in code and linking it all together.
As always, any help and/or links to information you could provide would be greatly appreciated.
My database has Main form and a Sub form. On main form i place one unbound text box named investigations. In subform of which datasheet there is a column named TestCode. I want unbound text box (Investigations) to display row values which selected in a column (TestCode) of subform.for example:Investigation field should display "CBC,HB,ALP".
I 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'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.
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.
Hi I am doing a date expiry query which has worked for one of my other queries i have copied the same criteria for another table but for some reason it does not work now
Below is the SQL i am using
SELECT Computers.[Machine ID], Computers.[Machine Type], Computers.User, Computers.Department, Computers.[Installed Applications], Computers.[Serial Tag], Computers.[OS Installed], Computers.[Pc Brought] FROM Computers WHERE (((Computers.[Pc Brought]) Between DateAdd("d",30,Date()) And DateAdd("d",-30,Date())));
I have 3 records which are within the criteria but for some reason i do not get these.
Any idea why this does not work but works for my other query
I need to find the nearest dates between two tables.
Table1 contains dates 11/1/2006 to 11/30/2006
Table2 contains only two dates: 11/5/2006 11/19/2006
I want Query1 to produce the nearest date in Table2 beside each of the dates in Table 1. Example: Date Nearest Date 11/1/2006 11/5/2006 11/13/2006 11/19/2006 etc.
the below script in my query is to automatically increase the date by one year, this works fine but i would like to be able to back date the script if necassary.
i have checked the properties and the field is not locked. but it wont let me change the date.
Hello, im new to this forum, and i need some help fast.
I have a database which is a list of all of member with some information and an expiry date for there membership. What i would like to be able to do is run a query and for it to search a table and give me the names of the people whos member ship has run out or is going ot run out within a month of the query being run.
I have tried several things already but access isn't realy my thing, i do Visual basic .net .
If any one has any ideas about how i could sort this would you please be able to respond, thanks in advance!
i need a method to store an expiry date. i have a column prepared in my table but i do not know how to reach the desired result.
the date will always be different depending on certain criteria
the course length. some courses we have are valid for a month. some for 6 months. some for a year and some for only 14 days.
i can use the date add to add the date period to the purchase date but i do not know where or how to store course length to be able to use it.
i have approached this before and i had a column in my courses table as below
("m",3,Date())
i pland on haveing this type for each course and varying it as applicable but this did not work and apparantley i was breaching the fundamental rules of relational data.
I need to do a report that takes data from many different tables (like 10).
To do this I have a big query with many LEFT JOIN to link all the tables together. I have made this query last year and it worked well and efficiently until now.
But I have to add something there, and the problem comes with it :
One of the tables is a currency exchange rate table, with the exchange rate of USD to 50 different other currencies and for each day since Jan 1st 2011.
But in this table there are some dates when a currency does not have an exchange rate (example : it was a holiday in that country, so there is no official exchange rate with this currency on that day).
However, I need to have rates even if they are not present in the table.
I need to get the nearest rate, for example if the rate of EUR on 31st December is not available, I can take the one of the 30th, or 29th or January 1st...
Ideally I would like to do the following :
Add a new LEFT JOIN to my already big query that would look like :
LEFT JOIN CurrencyExchangeRate ON ABS(RateDate - Instrument.Date) < 3
But to take only the closest rate.
I tried with a subquery :
LEFT JOIN (SELECT TOP 1 * FROM CurrencyExchangeRate WHERE ForeignCurrency = Instrument.Currency1 AND ABS(RateDate - Instrument.Date) < 3) AS MRate ON MRate.ForeignCurrency = Instrument.Currency1)
But the subquery does not accept Instrument.Currency1 because it is not part of the table CurrencyExchangeRate
I have a solution that should work, it is to search for this rate in a subquery in the select clause instead of doing a left join. But the tables are quite big (hundreds of thousands of entries) and my work machine is not really 'fast' so it would take hours and hours (when I tried I stopped after 3 hours).
I know there is the solution to make a macro to "fill" the missing rates with the rate of the previous day... But I would prefer not to go to this extent.
What I am trying to do is create a stock database and iv imported a blank version of the northwind template and filled it in with my own products which is fine up to a point.
What i also have though is i get weekly reports of the stock of each product with their batch numbers, expiry date and quantity remaining for that individual lot sent to me from another company. (So i might have several lines with the same batch number and expiry date but diffeent quantities) So what i want to ask is:
Is there any way for me to combine the data in the weekly reports with the stock level data in the northwind template?
What i want to be able to have is where somehow i can see the total quantity of eac product with the same batch number and expiry date and then it tells me when that batch has expired and it also automatically deducts the stock from my total stock when it gets to within e.g 9 months of the expiry date as we will not likely sell those.
I need to do this as at the moment all i can get from my database is how much stock has been ordered, sold and what we have in total on hand but if the stock is close to expiring then i wouldnt know and i need to be able to see when to order stock in advance as i want a minimum of 6 months cover and ideally 9 months cover as orders for stock dont come in straight away.
Also, how i can import the data from the weekly reports into excel/access easily as they come as word files presented as a table but the data is put in frames i think and iv tried removing them but then it all looks messed up.
I have a query which shows data about certain checks that are carried out employees. One of the fields is Expiry Date of the check. What I want is for the query to show only records that have a expiry date which has expired or is going to expire within the next three months of today's date. But I cannot work out how to do it!
I have a query call courses and field name expiry date I have add additional field within the query to show how many day left and how many days over the expiry date
Code : DayLeft:[expirydate]-now()
but i just get a error when i run the query
I also would like to ask is this possible to be done within the table e.g adding another field dayleft and some how add formula to calculate number days left or over due .
I am very new to access and I would like to pull some information from my tables.
I am using this for training records, I can calculate the expiry date of certificates using a query. What I would like is a report (even better an alarm of some sort) to show when things are due to expire. I can't seem to find this option as a report.Also, is it possible to have reports go into excel?
I have a task completion database. Each record of model consists of an expiry date. I need to review and update the records before the expiry date. Each model may have more than one record as I have updated the models a couple of times. I would like to select all of records with the expiry date less than 30 days so I can plan to review and update them on time. How to select all these records.
I have a Form which I have linked correctly to a subform. The Text boxes are showing in the Design view but are not when one switches to the Form View. Labels for Fields are visible in the Form View. Have even created a new subform and that will also not display the Text Boxes.
I have a pair of captioned text boxes for taking the criteria for the search result. Currently the text boxes are tied with a date field. I would like to give the user's choice of a number of date fields. After some research, I believe option group control fits for this purpose. Unfortunately, I never try this function before.
I have a continuous form (2003) with 6 text boxes (StartTime, StopTime, Comments etc...). I would like all the text boxes to have a gray background if the StartTime for that row is less than Today().
