I am calculating number of weeks between start and finish date. Some of the users have questioned the validity of calculation as they are not too sure if this is being calculated as Monday to Friday week or does it work by calculating 7 days. If the latter is true, then I should see a decimal value. I am using date diff formula.
View RepliesI am creating a access db for use with a training company. All is working great.
What I want to do is create certificates within Access and then print by the Course load. Easy enough and I can do this.
The courses usually last two or three days, so i want to create a field which has the start and finish date on the certificate formatted correctly.
I currently use this
Code:
CourseDate: DatePart("d",[StartDate]) & " & " & DatePart("d",[EndDate]) & " " & Format([EndDate],"mmmm") & " " & DatePart("yyyy",[EndDate])
within a query which returns this
29 & 30 May 2013
what i want to print on the certificate is this
29th & 30th May 2013
I need to have the 'st' or 'nd' or 'rd' or 'th' in the date.
i am trying to run a query from a form which will bring up the no of days difference between the start and end date also on the same form.
The query doesn't bring back any results can someone please guide in what i am doing wrong.
Here is the query
SELECT DateDiff('d',[start date],[end date]) AS [no of days]
FROM [booked property]
WHERE ((([booked property]![start date])=[forms]![booking]![booked property]![start date]) AND (([booked property]![end date])=[forms]![booking]![booked property]![end date]));
Thanks
I have form which automatically takes a start value for today the fieldname is Date.
Now what I want to do is calculate the difference between Date and Today's date in days with 2 criteria's
Ist criteria will be choosing the field which has a boolean field named Was Issue Resolved and has value as Null or False and
2nd criteria will be to show only days with greater than 21 days
This is what I m trying to do
Expr3: DateDiff("d",[Date],[date()])
but gives me error on date() as it can't find this parameter
I tried this also: >=DateAdd("d",-21,Date())
But its not population difference between the Date and Today Date ...
I use Access 2003 and want to make a query by specifying the start and finish within the city, I send files. a
Attached file ...
I have a query that displays the start and finish time for an activity, I am trying to display the reults of the time between each activity....
For example
Name start End
aaa 14:07 14:09
aaa 14:11 14:12
The end time for the first activity was 14:09 and the next job was started at 14:11, so I want it to display 00:02: - (elapsed time)
Its very easy to do in excel as it would be =SUM(B2-C1) but haven't a clue how to do it in access.... is there any way?
I have a subform in which I want to calculate the difference between a start time and finish time, the problem I am having is when the start time is on a different date to the finish time
Start 23:15 on 14th Jan finish 00:015 on 15th Jan, also I want the answer to be the number of minutes. The fields I have are
BatchStartTime Short Time
BatchFinishTime Short Time
BoilTime ([BatchStartTime] - [BatchFinishTime]) General Number.
There are many batches to enter per job and the MainForm has the StartDate as I didn't want to enter the StartDate for each batch.
I have attached a sample of a database.
Table 1 has all the items I am trying to sell with sell by date after which I cannot sell this item. Then in Table 2 I have forecasted sales. So now I am trying to calculate stock consumption to see if I will be left with any stock that I cannot sell.
So now somehow I need to deduct sales forecast from my stock holding but it needs to go by date i.e. consume all stock for Item 1 with date 16/09 before moving to Item 1 with sale by date 23/09.
So based on the attached example, I can see that on 16/09 I will consume only 5 cases from sell by date 16/09 and another sale is 18/09. So that would give me information that I will be left with 95 items dated 16/09, which I cannot sell because they will be out of date.
Ideally I would like also to include the logic that if Item is out of date it would move to the next sell by date.
So in this case sale of Item 1 forecasted for 18/09 (94) would consume the whole stock (50) with date 23/09 and another 44 from date 01/10
For Item 2 I can see that units with Sell by date 30/09 will be consumed on 25/09 and I will start taking stock from next sell by date which is 14/10.
So I have a database of contacts, and it has their birthdays listed as well. What I need to do is calculate the number of Fridays from their birthday up until today's date. How do I do this? Thanks
View 2 Replies View RelatedIn my Query I have a Date Received field and a Date Approved field.
I would like to calculate the number of work days, which excludes weekends, between Date Received and Data Approved fields.
It would be more desirable to calculate the number of work days, excluding weekends and governmnet obsereved holidays.. but I don't know if that can be done... If not I can stick with the number of work days excluding weekends.
How would I go about doing this? I would need to add a new column to my query?
What would I put for the field and criteria? What kind of expression do I use?
Any help will be appreciated, thanks
I would like to know if it is possible to pull the max and min start date and end date. Basically i have an option where by the user selects the desired date range that they would like.
Now I would like to know how to get the earliest and latest date range should they not select a date range. My date range is being displayed at the top of my report.
My database includes two separate dates related to a vehicle purchase and default payments resulting in repossession. I need to find out how many weeks passed between those dates.
Example:
03/14/12 Date of automobile purchase
06/06/13 Date of last payment before default
How many weeks in between? And then I need to average all of those figures so my company can see the usual week-term time frame that our customers are defaulting and getting repossessed.
I have an Access2007/SQL Server 2012 system with 20 users for an insurance company. The company does most of its business via a network of vehicle dealers around the country. If someone comes in to buy a motorcycle, boat, or recreational vehicle at a dealership they need insurance to take it home, and our dealers send the quotes to us.
The dealers, in turn, receive payment from us each month for their efforts. Some are paid a % commission on the premium, some are paid for each quote they send regardless of whether the policy actually sells or not, and some are paid a set amount per sold policy. (Yes, that is relevant information!)
We already have reports that tally the amounts due each dealer based on their payment scheme, but last month our bookkeeper had to write about 650 checks manually because the check writing is not automated. She'd look at the report, and then enter name, address, and amount (in digits and words) into Quick Books and print the checks from there, a horribly tedious process. I've been asked to print the checks from Access. Basically one click would print all 650 checks.
I've opted to use a Make Table query to move the commissioned dealers amounts to a single location, and then to run two append queries to add the records from those paid per quote and those paid per policy. At the end of the day, one table contains all the information necessary to print the checks...except one.
The check number.
I need a way to sequentially number each record in the new table with a user generated starting point, the first check number.
By the way, the check blanks are on standard letter sized paper, three to a page, with tear-off perforations to separate them, in case that information has any relevance.
I think the best way to accomplish this is from the report itself. I've created a blank field on each record for the check number, and what seems most logical is that the sequential number is generated on print and written back to the table, rather than just generating all the numbers at once. That way, should print ever be interrupted, it will be easy to take up where we left off.
Hi,
I have created a basic query, in MS 1997
Would someone be kind enough to give me the code for the following,
I need to display only the last 13 weeks worth of dates in this query.
The table is called "Tbl_History_RotAwaitShip"
The field is called "Time/Date" and is formatted as "13/05/2005"
Thankyou
Hi,
I am trying, and getting nowhere...so would appreciate your help... to create a query where records with dates from 8 weeks, or two months ahead appear in the query.
That is I have contracts ending in two months in my table and I want to run a query on who I should call now to renew contracts.
I have a contract end date in table.
I have tried
>=DateAdd("m",2,Now())<=DateAdd("m",2,Now())
only to get all sorts?
>=DateAdd("d",60,Now())<=DateAdd("d",68,Now())
only to get all sorts of things appearing?
Anyone that could help would be great.
I have contact info in a TBLCONTACTS and linked to TBLMOBILES via COMPANY_ID
Thanks heaps!

I've got a database used daily by 4 users. It's split into a frontend (10MB) with all the forms/queries/reports/vba and a backend that's just tables (170MB), and the users access the database from a network drive. All additions through the forms are logged to a text file, and at the end of the day, a report is run that prints the day's work to a PDF. The database / workflow has been stable for the last few years, with only minor edits to the code, and no programmatic changes in the last 3 months.
Today, after running a compact-and-repair, I realized that the database contained no entries added within the last 2 weeks. I checked my log files, and sure enough I see that all of my records were at some point added to the database. This is supported by the fact that I have PDFs for every day in the last 2 weeks that show exactly what was done (roughly 30 new records/day).
My first guess was that compact and repair had corrupted the database, and knocked out a chunk of records. Fortunately, I've got daily backups, so I started restoring to yesterday's database. At this point I found that the records were missing from there, and from every backup from the last 2 weeks. Now, it's possible that my backup solution (logMeIn backup) is hosed, but the the log files are getting properly restored by the backup, which leads me to believe the backup is working. So, somehow these records were never saved in the database, yet they magically appeared in my end-of-day reports?
I thought maybe I was getting stuck in some state where the database went read-only and the edits were getting stored in memory but never written to disk, but that doesn't make sense as we occasionally restart the database during the day for other reasons, and the end-of-day reports are always complete, which knocks that out. Having restored to a prior version of the DB, I attempted to make changes / add new records and they appear to be sticking, but I find my faith in Access rather shaken, all the more so because I haven't a clue what went wrong before.
Hi
Would be great if I could get some help on this:
I have big table that gets updated almost every day with new data. There is a date column. I have a Form where I can enter queries. I need to add a panel where I can spcify if the query should involve the data should involve the date from last week only, from the last 2 weeks, from the last month or if the query should involve the overall data.:confused:
It somhow need to be check what the date is today and then caclulate back.
Any help on this would be much appreciated.:D
Thanks

I am trying to avoid the creation of a lookup table where I know I should be able to calculate this. I need to determine the start and end date of a week number. I did find this post from 2002: http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=33116&highlight=start+end+dates+week but it doesn't seem to work.
What I am trying to do is show all projects that were opened at the start of a week number. For example, week 2 is from 1/7/2008 and ends on 1/13/2008 (provided that your week starts in the week that 1/1 occurs and that your week starts on Monday). I need this start date so I can show all projects that started on or before 1/7/2008 and were in an open status.
If I can't calculate this then I will have to create a table and relate the query to it.
|Week Number | Start Date | End Date |
I have a DB with Start Date (dd.mm.yyyy), End Date (dd.mm.yyyy) and Quarters. We have 4 Quarters (Jan-March, April-June, July-Sep, Oct-Dec) and extra columns of month (xxx) and year (yyyy) too.
The problem is the front end users have access permissions to modify the dates. if they change the start date and end date then they are manually gonna change other fields like quarter, month and year too (Which they don't want). The users don't need to manually update the column values for Quarter, Month and Year
For Example,
If the user modifies Start Date to: 22.05.2014 and End Date to: 24.06.2014 (then the quarter column should be fixed to 2nd quarter and month should be June and year should be 2014).
2nd Example: We need to consider the End Date for classifying the quarters, Month and Year
If the Start Date is: 22.05.2014 and End Date is: 24.12.2014 (then the quarter column should be fixed to 4th quarter and month should be December and year should be 2014).
The solution is when ever the front end user modifies the dates then automatically the quarter, month and year columns need to be changed.
Sample piece of Access data sheet with just 3 examples. Column names Start date, End date, Quarter, Month, Year.
