Everything is going well, when i make a transc ,transcid genrated
i,e 1,2,3,to 47,48,49,50 and so on. In this case there are minimum 50 transaction on daily bases, it is difficult to remember the transaction id after two or three months. Here i have an idea that daily after 11.59pm ,i mean after changing date ,when i make a transction, transction id or sequence no start from 1, and my last day data will also remain safe . I am sure that i have to create another table for appending data to that table for reusing of transaction id from 1 but i am failed while making this.
I have a database with two tables: taskTable and volumeTable. On the task table I have the list of task performed in my team and the time it takes to perform the task related to a category, and on the volume tasks I have the volumes of workload based on the category moth after month. Then I have a query that multiplies the time it takes to perform a task with the volume in the category and returns me results for each month.
Now, if a task changes on march and the time to perform it its reduced or increase I change it on the table, howerver, ALL results for all months. I would like to know if there is a way for the change to be applied from the month it is changed and not retroactively.
Example Task Table: Task Time to Perform Task Category Buy ticket 5 min Business Visitor Create profile 10 min Business Visitor
Example Volumes Table: Month Year Category Volume March 2014 Business Visitor 39
I have a query that allows the user to see how many hours we've flown, sorted by month for the current year.
Problem is that in the query I have to manually put in the criteria "january 2007" or "february 2007" or etc....
What I would like it to be able to do is based on the current year (2007 for instance) set the criteria by itself. Someday I might not be around to reset the year in the criteria so therefore it should be automated.
Anybody have an idea what I'm talking about and a simple solution a hack of a programmer could figure out?
Before you start yelling, use the search. I did.;) But the solution mentioned on this forum (place me.lastupdated = Date() after BeforeUpdate event) doesnt work for me. My situation: I have two forms. On the first you are asked for an registrationnumber. This is used to open the second form with that registration number so you can fill in data. I want the date on which things are changed on the second form to be saved. If I use the BeforeUpdate event, I get an error when I try to open the second form. When I use the AfterUpdate event, the date is changed but not stored. Any solutions? :confused:
I finally found and eliminated all duplicate entries in my tblStoreProducts table, so that I could create a 2-field Index called UniqueProduct that would prevent duplicate entries. Without it, uploading information from Excel (not the preferred method) would result in duplicated entries in this table which would ultimately reflect in the Hazardous Materials reports that must be submitted to the fire marshal.
Today I was going through data entries in the Product table and noticed some that are STILL coming up with the UPC (a text field) in Scientific Notation.
I know that I have to change the information in the linked table tblStoreProducts first. The most simple way would be to just change the UPC of the product in that table to the correct UPC. It shouldn't be causing a problem, because it doesn't create a duplicate record. I'm getting the error "The text you entered isn't an item in the list" now that I've created that index.
I changed the index to Unique = No and still get the same error.
I removed the index all together...still get the same error.
I'm making the changes directly in the BE database right now. If I can't enter information directly, the forms aren't going to work either.
I am creating an online post, similar to a guestbook. When a user submits an entry, I am storing the date and time in a column titled "Timestamp", which is formatted 8/4/2005 9:16:58 ("General Date"). I am running the table through a query which is then posted on the web.
What I would like to do is this: I would like to use Timestamp to display the date that the entry was submitted, but not the time (basically, "Short Date"). Can I exclude the time using a query without changing the actual data stored in each record of the table? I understand that the time stored is completely different than the time displayed, even in the table. How can I do this?
I have just upgraded my large client database from Access 97 to Access 03. Unfortuntely all date of birth prior to 1930 are being displayed as 20??. IE date of birth 1928 displays 2028. Is there any way to automatically change this without altering the input mask and changeing each record individually. I have approx 15000 on the database, so not looking forward to doing it manually. Any suggestions appreciated.
I have a db that is a checkbook register. I use a field in each transaction record to tell whether the transaction is current or is a future transaction (if it is in the future then it doesn't yet affect my balance). For instance, if the item is not scheduled to be paid for two weeks (I schedule payments with online banking), I check the "future item" box, then that record for that item isn't included in the report that tells me my current balance. How can I automatically take away that check mark on records when the date in that record becomes todays date (or before today)? Because at that point it is no longer a "future" transaction but is current. I could do this manually but it seems like there should be a way to do it automatically.
After having to take on the work of someone else and finding that the dates were stored as text in the format yy.mm.dd I would like to change it so it is dd/mm/yyyy and stored as a Date. I was thinking about using an update query rather than go through 10000 odd records!
G'day, I'm trying to replace a date on a table using an update query. I have the criteria set to [enter date] but it won't put it in the update to block. I know this has to be one of those easy one but after a search and using help I can't nail it down. Much appriciated, Tim
Guess I should add that I'm going to use a command button on a form to run the query and I want it to prompt me for the date.
So i have a field called [LastUpdate] that i want to have change to the current date to show when the form was last updated. which event do i use to make this happen and should this be a form event or this field event? I tried using the On Data Change even for the form and then just assigning [LastUpdate] = Date, but that didn't do anything. any ideas?
I use textboxes to limit the time periods for report the defaults are set to first and last day of previous month I'd like to add a button that would set you a month back/forward, but I'm stuck on how to change values to correspond to first/last day ofprevious month
We are getting in files from a vendor that come in with today's date and different extensions and prefixes such as BA0003.20121217.pdf or MYLOOKUP.20121217.psv where the only constant is the date, there are over 100 files that I need to change the date part to today's date. I would like to find all the data before the first period and all the data after the last period and replace the date part with todays date.
Is it possible to show an alert/reminder any time data in a particular field is entered or changed? It would have to show up if the data was changed in table view or query view.
Until I can write something that will store historical data for these fields, I want to make sure anyone entering information will record the old information in a separate table. Yes, I know this is not the ideal way to store the type of data; but this database has been running for 10+years and is tied in to so many aspects of the company re-writing it is just not an option ...
I have a form with a sub, and that sub has a sub. I'm on the first sub trying to change the rowsource of a combo box on the second sub, and none of the following want to work.
VBA syntax for changing various "Field Properties" on an EXISTING table. Specifically, the field properties I'm trying to change are:
Field Size (I want to make this 'Double') Format (I want this to be 'Standard') and Decimal (I want this to be '2') The Data Type is already set as 'Number'.
I have copied our company access database onto my lap top and linked the front end to the back end. My problem now is that when I open the switchboard it is looking for the data and tables on the G drive, this was where it was on our server. How do you change the path for the switchboard.?
I have a database where I would like to change a fieldname to something different.
I know I can use edit replace in the code and that works ok, but is there a way to change the fieldname in the code, the Table, the queries, and sql all in 1 foul swoop or do I have to do them all seperately by hand.
