I am working on a database where i need to perform the below activities,
start->pause->resume->pauseagain->resumeagain->finish
I wanted to calculate the actual time from start to finish excluding the pause time.
Calculating the rates over a period of time. I think the attachment will give you a clear picture of what I am looking for.
To get the cost for a particular period I want the rates to be updated as per the given period. How I could get the calculation in the mdb format...
I need a Select Query to display data on a form. When an order is appended to my table the field named Printed is updated with the time it was appended. When my form opens it needs to display the field Printed and a field I call MinutesFromPrint. This field needs to display the total minutes elapsed from the time in the Printed field to the current time. My expression is not working.
MinutesFromPrint: DateDiff("n",[Printed],Now())
Here are a couple of samples of my results when I run the query at 7:49 A.M.:
Printed MinutesFromPrint
2:35 60366554
5:07 60366402

Hi,
is there a way to tell access to do REALLY nothing, like a sleep command?
on a form, I wanted to make a slideshow button which would skip to the next record after some seconds. but in those seconds i need to display 2 graphs and there is the problem i'm facing.
using something like a loop makes access really busy (as a process) and graphs use a different process (graph.exe) and that process doesn't get any processingtime...
anyone?
After almost 10 years developing MS Access applications for the government, I'm attempting to write an effective resume to begin my job search. I've single-handedly designed, tested and implemented over 40 small to medium sized applications to handle everything from classified document management to personnel tracking to event planning. Most of these systems were fairly complex with pages of VBA code, automation and FE/BE structure to allow concurrent users.
I'm having a terrible time verbalizing the work I've done with Access while making it sound impressive to companies using larger, more robust systems like SQL Server or Oracle.
With the stigma that comes with Access, I would love to know how Access resumes could be written to accurately portray the ability to design logical schema, design intelligent interface and define system requirements while conveying that the skill to perform these tasks translates to other systems as well.
Can anyone here (PatHartman, ghudson, et al) provide:
A) a sample resume for an Access developer?
B) sample language to include in an Expert Access Developer resume?
I thank all of you, in advance, for your time and any assistance you can provide.
Happy coding!

Can someone please help me as this is driving me crazy and I know the answer must be simple.
I have a query/report that shows the duration a call has taken i.e. it times each part of the call. For example it may take a member of staff 00:00:30 to answer a call, then he puts a customer on hold whilst he speaks to another department which could be another 30 seconds, and then he ends the call with the customer.
So my report and query shows:
Ringing 00:00:30
Speaking to customer 00:04:10
On hold 00:00:30
Ends call with customer 00:02:00
The duration of the action is in a seperate column.
How do I tell access to add these up so I get a total of 00:07:10 for the entire call from start to finish?
Thanks for you help

I am struggling with a filter I thought would be simple. I have a field called close time and I want a filter that will show a record one hour before the close time?
View 2 Replies View RelatedHello:
I have a report with three text boxes:
Box 1 contains an employee's total weekly hours in hours and minutes: 40:00
Box 2 contains the actual total hours worked for the week: 35:30
Box 3 is the difference between Box 1 minus Box 2
I tried all the date/time functions to calculate the difference between Box 1 and Box 2 and none of them worked. I keep on getting an error message. Does anybody know how to calculate the difference between two sets of time (in hours and minutes)?
Thank you in advance.
Hello friends,
I have a table for "Production Orders" ie. work orders.
there are feilds : start date , start time
based on these feilds i want to calculate the remaining time to start production.
but what i want is
if remaining time is > 1 day then
give results in the format " 1 day and 2 hrs"
elseif remaining time < 1 day then
give result in the format " 2 hrs and 24 mins"
and also current time - remaining time > 0 else result = "N/A"
how can i do this simply
I'm having trouble getting my head around this.
I have a database that collects stats of patients admitted to ICU.
I have a table PtDataTable (pk = PtID) with a one to many relationship with PtVisitTable (pk = VisitID, fk = PtID). The patient visit table has the fields AdmissionDate and AdmissionTime, and DischargeDate and DischargeTime.
I need to calculate if the patient is readmitted to ICU in less than or equal to 48hrs. In other words calculate the time elapsed between DischargedDate and DischargedTime in one record and the AdmissionDate and AdmissionTime for other records in the PtVisitTable for the same patient.
I'm not sure if I stated this clearly.
Any help is appreciated as always.
Hi.
I'am trying to count: todays date -12 month.
So how I tell access that I want answer which date is year from this date?
Or how I must "write" 12 months in SQL?
Table
------
I have one field called [Time] in dd-mm-yyyy hh:mm format in table A.
I have another field called [Deadline] in text format (Mon 10:00) in table B.
Queries
-------
Need to build one queries that have the above two field, but with additional field called [PullDeadline] that the [Time] will look out the [Deadline] and return the actual time & date value in [PullDeadline]. No matter how the [Time] change, the [PullDeadline] will stick to [Deadline] and return the value in that particular week.
For example,
[Time] = 01-12-2007 05:00:00 AM
[Deadline] = Mon 10:00
[PullDeadline] = 26-11-2007 10:00 AM
How to handle, if the deadline is previous or next week?
Eg. [Deadline] = Sun 10:00
Then [PullDeadline] = 25-11-2007 10:00 AM instead of 02-12-2007 10:00 AM.
OK so I have a form with the following fields which are all date/time type
apptTime
timerOn
pickupDate
reminder - combo box with 1 hour, 2 hour...etc up to 10 hours
so what happens is when user enters apptTime say 18:30 with pickupDate set for current days date 10/14/2006 then chooses 2 hours from the reminder combo. This then sets timerOn to (apptTime-2 hours) so it is 16:30. I have set a conditional formatting to change background color when "timerOn<=Time() and pickupDate=Date()" so user knows to dispatch this load. This all works great until you get to midnight.
If user sets apptTime to 00:30 with pickupDate to 10/15/2006 and chooses 2 hour reminder, so timerOn does get set to 22:30 and you would expect the conditional formatting to work once the current Time() is 22:30, but since the current Date() is 10/14/2006, the expression is false. I have tried the DateAdd such as DateAdd("d", 1, Date()) command in various ways but can't get it to work for "timerOn<=Time() and pickupDate=DateAdd("d", 1, Date())"...I mean it works because it adds 1 day to pickupDate and condition is then true, but it ignores the timerOn<=Time() part and formats even if I reset system time to 22:29. Can anybody give me insite on where the logic is wrong?
Hi Guys
I need to create a method of calculating -week number,hours worked per week and a leiu hours total.
Explanation
Users enter their worked hours per day. I need to calculate the total hours worked per user per week and if this is greater or less than their contracted hours a record of this figure over a continual time period (or year).
Variables :- Time worked,Holiday hours,Leiu hours taken,Sick leave, Other authorised leave.
I realise that i'm asking on a lot but working for a charity has financial limits.
Attached the basic database-so far
Thanks in advance for your help

Hi,
I need to calculate the number of days between two days however the format on which i have my date includes the time in the same field -
2007-02-20 07:15:30.474
When I calculate one date minus an other the result is #error
I require the result to be in a count format e.g 2.3 days (like in excel)
Is there anyway to get around this without splitting the date and time?
Please help!:)
Please advise how I can incorporate a time variable (in elapsed minutes) in a formula and have it update automatically every minute:
example: count the number of minutes elapsed from a point in time multiplied by a fixed rate (such as Gallons per minute) to produce a value of gpm over a period of time.
Any suggestion are welcome.

i need to calculate time, the problem i have is that we are trying measure production over the day, however our days run from
22:00 through to 22:00 the following evening
i have tried to calculate it by taking the end time from away the start time, but when i tried to do this it gives the wrong figure
eg
DayCode - 3111 (This is just the code we use to represent each day)
Line - C3 ( Machine identification)
Start Time - 22:00 ( Time the Machine started)
End Time - 18:00 (time the machine ends)
Duration - 04:00 (the figure that is display when calculated in access)
the duration figure should be 20:00 hours
i have managed to get it to work upto a point with the following code
runtime: IIf([starttime]=[endtime] And [starttime]=#22:00:00#,#23:59:59#,IIf([starttime]>[endtime],(#23:59:59#-[starttime])+[endtime],[endtime]-[starttime]))
but
if the the two times are the same for example 22:00 on the first evening through til 22:00 the following evening, i should get a result of 24 hours but instead i get zero, so i was wondering if there is a work around to this problem, i also need the time to be displayed in full hours whereas the above code only dislpays it to the correct hour minus 1 second.
i have attached a sample for you to look at:
i hope this makes a little sense.
thanks

I am needing a query to calculate elapsed time in business hours for each record selected (I normally base this on a date range). For the purposes of this query, business hours are defined as Mon-Fri from 7 AM until 9 PM.
So for example:
With a start time of 6:45 AM and an end time of 9 AM, the query would need to return 02:00 (in [h]:mm format).Likewise, with a start time of 7 AM and end time of 9 AM the query would also return 02:00.Is there any way to do this easily? Or at all for that matter? Is it possible to deal with weekends?
I need to calculate in the tbleJobs table, the amount of the jobs total amount and place the result in the JobsTotalAmount field.
This has to be a manual calculation. Not an on event calculation.
Data is coming from two table:
tblLimos has the hourly rate.
tblJobs has the start time, the finish time and the total amount field.
I have four columns: date1, time1, date2, time2. All are strings.I want to concatenate date1 & time1. Then date2 & time2.Then I want to do the following calculation and the answer to expressed as number of days:
datetime2 - datetime1.
I am using MS Access 2007 and the results are being grouped by a different variable. Ideally I want to complete this action as one complete statement in the SELECT statement of my query. This is very easy to do in Excel but I'm baffled by MS Access!
Access 2003. I am trying to save a calculated field (Item No) from a form to the accosiated field within the Products table
I have a hidden text box (itemNo) which is bound to the relevant field and a second text box with the following formula
="TV-" & Left(CatShort.column(1),3) & "-" & Format([ProductID],"0000") as its source
What I am trying to do is to provide an item number for each item of stock based on the Category short name (Catshort) and the incremented item ID Number, with a TV prefix.
I am aware that its a bad itea to place calculated field into the table if the calculation is likely to change, however once my calculation is stored it has no need to change.
I have tried the beforeUpdate method within the ItemNo textbox
Private Sub ItemNo_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
Me!ItemNo = Me!ItemCalc
End Sub
but nothing happens (in that the table is not updated)
Any way of putting together an incremental item number based on the selected category with a "TV" prefix....
Let's say that you have a cookie jar that's to be shared with two children, let's call them Jack and Jill.
You know that to start with (t = 0), there are 100 cookies in the cookie jar
Now the strange thing about Jack and Jill is that they start eating cookies on different days and that their cookie appetite depends on the number of cookies in the jar when they start, Specifically
Jack has an appetite of 10% of the total cookie jar and he starts eating on day one.
Jill eats after Jack and she has an appetite of 5% of the jar.
So what this would look like is:
Day 0 - Cookie Jar has 100 cookies
Day 1 - Jack eats, Cookie Jar has 100 - 100(10%) = 90 cookies
Day 2 - Jill eats, Cookie Jar has 90 - 90(5%) = 85.5
Problem:
1. Given that I have a table containing the starting number of cookies e.g.:
CookieTable
Startingcookies
100
2. Given that I have a table containing a record for Jack and a record for Jill, each with two fields: Eating Start date, Appetite % e.g.:
AppetiteTable
Child, EatingDay, Appetite%
Jack, 1, 10%
Jill, 2, 5%
What will the query look like that:
1. Calculate the number of cookies in the cookie jar over time e.g.
Day 0, Day 1, Day 2
100, 90, 85.5
2. Calculate the total number of cookies eaten by Jack and Jill e.g.
Child, Cookies Eaten
Jack, 10
Jill, 4.5
