General :: Dates As Text From Archival Database

Jan 8, 2014

I'm bringing an archived db into Access, with entry forms to continue on into the future for maintenance. In the past, some dates were recorded only to year (yyyy). Obviously, I won't continue that, but I need to integrate the old and new in a fashion that will sort. For instance, one form has a subform section based on a report to show the old entries, while below are unbounded text fields for making new entries (with a Save command button).

How to integrate partial old text dates with newly recorded dates.

Working With Text And Dates

Mar 19, 2008

I have a situation where I need to extract the date from a text field to use in a select query. The date in the text field is listed at the beginning of the text field like this.

S12345678 3/21/2008 adittional text beyond here blah, blah...

the first series of numbers can be either 9 or 10 digits long, and then the date is always in this format, the length of the characters change accordingly with the date. So trying to use the Mid function only wont work.

I supposed I need to find a way to get the position of the space character in front of and after the date to use the Mid function for each record.

I need to be able to extract this date to do a DateDiff against another date.

I have been trying to do something like this.

Narr_Date: Format(Mid([si_narr_t],InStr(1,[si_narr_t],Chr(32)),InStr(9,[si_narr_t],Chr(32))),"Short Date")

But I know I am off the mark here. Can someone tell me what I am missing?

Compare Dates In 2 Unbound Text Boxes

Feb 20, 2015

On a form I'm asking a user to enter dates in 2 different textboxes, say, [text1] and [text2], both formatted to short date. In a third textbox [text3] I need to see the date of the greater of the two, and in a fourth [text4] I need to see the date of [text3] if it falls on a Monday through Friday, or the date of the previous Friday if [text3] falls on Saturday, and the date of the following Monday if [text3] falls on a Sunday.

...a couple quick examples;

If text1 = 2/20/2015 and text2 = 2/27/2015, text3 should evaluate to 2/27/2015, and text4 should evaluate to 2/27/2015
or
If text1 = 2/20/2015 and text2 = 2/28/2015, text3 should evaluate to 2/28/2015, and text4 should evaluate to 2/27/2015

My attempts to compare text1 and text2 revolve around an IIF but result in an error...

Entering this into [text3]... IIF([text1]>[text2], [text1], [text2])

results in "#Name?" error, which I interpret as meaning the date from the source cannot be pulled into the formula.In attempt to check the day of week, I used =Weekday([text3],1) which results in a number. I haven't been able to do an IIF on it as it errors with #Name? again.

Access Database Help With Dates

Jul 18, 2007

I have a database that includes dates in a table, and a form that I use to show items that are issued from a supply crib. The date is automatically input by the database. I have designed a report with all the data that I need. My problem is that I need to be able to print this report according to a specific start date and end date (which is usually a 7-day period), and I can't seem to get this accomplished. Could someone please guide me in the direction that I need to go? I have a query designed, but I don't know how to apply the query to my report. For example, upon opening my report, I need it to ask me for a start date and an end date, and print the report according to the dates that I input. At the present time, the report won't ask me for these dates. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

General :: Conditional Formatting Dates

Oct 29, 2013

I am trying to get my expiration date field to highlight a certain color once the date comes closer.I have weapons qualification dates. The user will input the date he/she qualified and then a expiration date (6 months from that day) automatically pops up.

Now what I want to do is once the expiration dates gets closer is change the color. So when it is 90 days from expiration it would highlight yellow, and when its 30 days away it would highlight red. I believe this can all be done through conditional formatting, but for the life of me I cant figure it out!!

General :: Manipulating Dates Within A Form

Mar 2, 2013

I've been tasked to create a company client record database which permits several people at once to access and modify a communal database of clients. So far, so good. It's for a firm of solicitors, so I'd better get it RIGHT!!

One field requires the entry of a date, which the next field is supposed to automatically subtract 180 days from.

Is it possible for me to do this within the one entry form? The way I see it is that the first date would be entered, then the form would automatically display the -180 days result in the next box.

Tables :: Text File Import Function Will Not Recognize Dates In Certain Format

Oct 8, 2013

I upgraded to Access-2010 and the Text File Import function will not recognize dates in the format YYYY-MM-DD. The import dialogue sees enough to recognize the field as a date, but then every date encountered is written to the Import-Errors table. This is true whether the file has a .txt or .csv extension. The actual file format is .csv.

General :: Creating Pop Up Based On Conflicting Dates

Nov 12, 2014

- I currently have a table that is labeled WorkSchedule. I then Created a query called WorkSchedule Query.

- The column labels are as follows (listed from right to left): Project, Event (something inside of the project), Employee1, Employee2, StartDate, EndDate

- I created a split form that shows each record.

- On each record I made the employee1, and employee2 as a drop down box that allows you to pick from all employees.

*MY QUESTION*

How do I make a pop up form appear when there is a conflicting date based on the employee I picked?

For example: If I had assigned Rebecca to an event that went on from 11/12/2014 - 11/14/2014. Then I tried to assign her to another event from 11/13/2104-11/15/2014. I want a pop up message saying that these dates conflict.
