Apr 10, 2013I am connecting acces to oracle servers via ODBC .
In the table there is a date time stamp - format data type text:
20130225060621
I would like to convert so that it is recognised as a date so I can calculate against e.g. Now() or another standard date format.
this is what I am currently using (which is OK) BUT I need to calculate against the time also.
Current Check Point Date: CDate(Mid([DZ_ZPKT_AK],7,2) & "/" & Mid([DZ_ZPKT_AK],5,2) & "/" & Mid([DZ_ZPKT_AK],1,4))
I spoke to an IT guy who works in TOAD program and he gave me this SQL:
select to_date(dz_zpkt_ak,'DD/MM/YYYY HH24:MI:SS')from orders where ordnr='4411310';
this is the format I would like but cant make this work.
General :: Create A Button On Form To Convert Data To Text File Template
Jul 14, 2015I'm currently working on a project within access which will allow users to select/input information in a form which will then save to the database.
What I need is to create a button on the form which will allow you to convert the data collected from the form to a custom text file template.
(Or maybe the last row added to the database. - although this may cause errors. Example: the form information doesn't save which will in turn create a text file with the data collected from the previous job)
The custom text file template should have a sentence description followed by the value recorded from the form.
Example:
1 configuration type: (data from form)
2 model type: (data from form)
3 Poc: (data from form)
And so on.
So in summary - I would be to use the form to collect the desired information which will save to the database.
Once actioned, a custom text file should be populated with the collected information (with specific data placement as per the example above)....

Convert Short Time To A Number (seconds)
Feb 26, 2006This 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

View 1 Replies View RelatedConvert Day Of Year Date/time Format To Number
Mar 11, 2008Hi all,
I have an inherited database with years worth of julian dates stored as numbers (e.g. days 1-366 for a leap year). I also have some fields stored as short dates. I would like to run a series of parameterized queries on this data, some using the short data and some using the "julian dates" that are actually just numbers. I have the user enter the start and end date in short date format and would like that to be converted and held in an unbound field as a number value. So far I can get the date to appear as a "julian date" (e.g. 1/1/08 appears as 1, obviously the underlying data is still 1/1/08) How do I take that 1 and convert it to number value "1"? Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Peter
Queries :: Convert EST To BST - Using SWITCH To Return A Date / Time
Nov 14, 2014Trying to import some data from a linked Excel spreadsheet into a local table. One of the fields is a Date/Time type and is recorded in EST (Eastern Standard Time). I want to keep this field for posterity but also add a separate field with the corresponding time as per BST
For clarity, daylight savings time comes into effect this year on 26th Oct in the UK and 2nd Nov in the US. So generally, there is a 5 hour difference between the two time zones, apart from the period between these two dates, when it is only 4 hours.Here is my query - I am using a SWITCH function to create the BST field
Code:
INSERT INTO tblTransactions
SELECT ltbPayments.ID AS Reference, ltbPayments.VALUEDATE AS ValueDate, ltbPayments.LOCALAMOUNT AS Amount, ltbPayments.USDAMOUNT AS AmountUSD, tblAccounts.AccountID AS AccountID, ltbPayments.TRANSACTIONTIME AS TransactionTimeEST,
SWITCH(DateValue(ltbPayments.TRANSACTIONTIME) < DateSerial(2014,10,26) Or DateValue(ltbPayments.TRANSACTIONTIME) >= DateSerial(2014,11,2),
[code]....
So - how do I explicitly specify the output of the SWITCH function to be in Date/Time format (I presume, by default, it's returning Text, which contradicts the table properties of tblTransactions & the TransactionTimeBST field?...)

How To Convert Text To Numbers?
Mar 24, 2007Hello, I have a Field in a Table called Fund Codes and they are entered as text: 1, 2, 3, 4 all the way to 1000. Now i need to find away to change 1 to 001, 2 to 002, 3 to 003, 10 to 010, but leave 100 as 100 and 222 as 222, so only add 0s to numbers from 1 to 99. Is there a way to do it? I know i can change the text to numbers and use format to do that, but i need to leave it as text. Please help. Many thanks!

Aug 2, 2005I have a table with the following fields:
Tool Text
Tool_ID Text
Description Text
The Tool_ID field holds a number if the tool provides a tool id. However, if the tool doesn't provide a tool id, the text "No tool ID given" is automatically placed into the field. Therefore, it needs to remain a text field for this reason and others that are too long to go into.
Anyway, I created a query that pulls only one specific tool which always provides a tool ID. Therefore, the results of my query will always have a number in the text field "Tool_ID".
Question: Is there a way to convert the text field to a number field within the query?
Thanks in advance!

Need To Convert Weekday To Text
Oct 22, 2005I used the format text box in my query design to generate weekdays as text from my date field. It works great. However, I was hoping to produce some graphs where I could use those weekdays as 7 categories to plot against some other data. Now I am finding that to be a problem as the "real" format is a date and when I try to change the format in excel it creates this random number. Any suggestions on how to get around this problem. Thanks a bunch.

Aug 16, 2006Morning All,
In a table I have a text field (Meeting Date) which contains the date in the format: "Wednesday 22 March 2006"
How do I convert this to a date of format dd/mm/yyyy?
I have created another field of type date called MDate, in the same table, and have tried experimenting with an update query.
CDate(Left([Meeting Date],4) & "/" & Mid([Meeting Date],5,2) & "/" & Right([Meeting Date],2))
But this has not worked. (If someone could explain the significance of the numbers in the function that would be helpful also - Access help did not provide this information)
Convert Text To Date
Aug 10, 2007Hi, I get the user input from a text box in a form, then i use it in the query.
in my query i used the DateDiff function in the expression. should I convert the data type from string (the user input from the text box) to date type first before using the DateDiff function?
in the SQL view, I wrote the following, but it says incorrect:
SELECT availability.machineName,
(DateDiff("d",CDate(Forms!frmMain!txtStartDate),CDate(Forms!frm Main!txtEndDate))+1)*24 AS totalMonthlyHours, availability.type
FROM availability
WHERE (availability.date)>=CDate(Forms!frmMain!txtStartDate) And (availability.date)<=CDate(forms!frmMain!txtEndDate)
GROUP BY availability.machineName, availability.type;
Thanks in advance.
Convert Numeric Value To Text
Mar 11, 2008Im trying to construct a query which returns a field that has 21 different types of values.
Is there a way to assign a text value to each numeric value when the results are displayed?
Eg: 21 = "Local Sales", 22 = "National Sales", 23 = "International Sales".. and so on.
Ive looked at the Choose and IIF functions but I cant seem to work it out
..............
Anouther little problem, which should be basic. I want to exclude certain records with values such as 31 and 41 and 42.
When i type <> 31 or <> 41 <> 42 in the criteria they are all still displayed. Although when I type one of those criteria by themselves they ARE EXCLUDED. Is there something dumb I am missing here??
thanks in advance.
How To Convert From Currency To Text.
May 26, 2005I am sure it must be very simple but I can't find the command!
I need to convert a currency value to a text value for use in a combined string, say £123.00, to the text string "£123.00".
Basically I want one of the reports to say "£123.00 each less x% discount".
Currently I am using :
[Door Price] & " each less " & [Discount] & "% discount"
which will display "123 each less x% discount"
I could add the £ sign in code but if I add the .00 as well I will then have problems with a price of say £123.50!
Surely there must be a simple command that does this for me?
Cheers!

Apr 18, 2014I have a field that is a combo box that I would like to convert into a text box. When I try to change the 'display control' to 'text' I loose all the information that is displayed in the field. I want to keep the current values that are there now, just do away with the combo box.
I have tried simple things like copy and paste, but that just makes the new field a combo box as well.
