General :: Type Birth Date And Age Will Be Automatically Calculated?
Jul 19, 2013
I am creating a database with over 500 entries. One thing that would speed up the process of entering all of this data manually would be if I could type in the birth date and the age would be automatically calculated. Is there any way this can be done? It is all in the same table.
I don't seem to find any query formula in the forum where the age changes on the date of birth. I tried all the once I could find but all of them seem to calculate the age as of 1 January. I find it a bit strange that it doesn't work.
I got BirthDate and Date in the table I want to update the age column back in the history with an update query.
BUT IT JUST GIVE ME THE VALUE LIKE A NUMBER SUCH AS e.g. 50 ,150 but instead of that i want currency data type of that calculate field for e.g. 50 become "$ 50".
Okay so in able to do that i go to properties Sheet of the field of the query and change Format to Currency ..BUT IT DOESN'T CHANGE !!!
I am trying to change the data type of a field in a table from calculated to something else. It gives me the error "this data type cannot be changed once the field has been saved"
I have an option button for a field [Fully Paid] (Yes/No) in my LoanT and i want to know if it's possible for my database to automatically choose an option depending on a calculated field
(Calculated field from another query) = [Outstanding Balance]
Say... if [outstanding balance] is = 0 or negative (refundable), then Yes should be On, if not it should remain No/off so that i wouldn't have to go over every record and manually choose the option
The option button is very useful when i want to display loans which are Paid and/or still active. How do I go about this?
I create a database through ms access and there have a birth date box and admission date. Another box for Age.I want to see the age in month or year figure in to the age box when I go next field. Which will be calculate from admission date to birth date.
I need to set a field so that only people that are 16 years old from the current date can enter their birthday into the field. I am assuming that it is a 365-day year. I know that i need to use the DATE() function and the number 5840 (16*365). I can't figure this one out, HELP PLEASE!
I have a "Client" table which has a "Date of Birth" field and the problem I am having is on in the data entry form the users type in "2/25" instead of "2/25/1965" on for the most part that's OK. But if the client DOB is 1930 or before then 2/25/2029 comes up. I have found that the date format is tied to the Windows Regional settings and we are working on a network that doesn't allow me to adjust the settings. I have tried to put a validation on the table for the field but then that makes it so you HAVE to enter something and can not leave that field blank if you want.
Hi i know it is simple but can someone tell me how to work out an age of someone using their date of birth and the date now please. thanks i cannot remember the formula.
i need a method to store an expiry date. i have a column prepared in my table but i do not know how to reach the desired result.
the date will always be different depending on certain criteria
the course length. some courses we have are valid for a month. some for 6 months. some for a year and some for only 14 days.
i can use the date add to add the date period to the purchase date but i do not know where or how to store course length to be able to use it.
i have approached this before and i had a column in my courses table as below
("m",3,Date())
i pland on haveing this type for each course and varying it as applicable but this did not work and apparantley i was breaching the fundamental rules of relational data.
I am the secretary of an athletics club and have the task of using membership data to compile groups of athletes.:eek: One of the fields that I have available is the date of birth of every athlete. It is entered in the form dd/mm/yyyy. I would like to be able to query the database and display the age of each athlete.
I would also like to be able to query the database so that I can compile groups of athletes grouped by their ages as at 01/09/yyyy These groups would be: Under 11 years, over 10 years but under 13 years, over 12 years but under 15 years, over 14 years but under 17 years under 20 years. over 19 years. I have some understanding of using SQL view in Access but my overall knowledge must be viewed as "novice". If you are able to help me with this problem I would be extremely grateful (as would our club), and I would also be obliged if you could keep instructions simple. Many thanks John:)
This is my first post to this group. I am building a database for a charity event and need to calculate the age of a person based on the Date Of Birth field in the table and add that number to a separate column in the table. Also, need to calculate the age as of a certain date (the beginning of the event). Thank you for any help.
I am a novice trying to create a school access 2000 database, I have a table that contains a DateOfBirth field and want to convert this field into Age (automatically add a new field), so i can then create a form from it and filter the pupils by age.
Ive read post http://forums.aspfree.com/showthread.php?p=112241 which is exactly what I want to do, but it doesnt go into the basic s, like where I put this code to get the field to change.
I've a club database the records score for juniors on age groups that are set as of the 1st January each year. I would like to set this automatically from the date of birth. I have found some code that is very close to what I need apart from the fact it groups on the exact DOB resulting in changes to age group mid year.
'----------------------------Code Start-------------------------------- Public Function AgeGroup(dtmBirthDate As Date) As String Dim intAge As Integer 'Age Calculation intAge = DateDiff("yyyy", [dtmBirthDate], Now()) + _ Int(Format(Now(), "yyyy") < Format([dtmBirthDate], "yyyy")) Select Case intAge
I would like to have a date control on a form filled in automatically with the current date when a new record is created (the date would remain as is unless changed manually). I've tried programming it in VB but, being a newbie, have not been able to come up with anything that works. I'm not even sure how to trigger an event to do it just the one time when the record is created.
I have a Date of Birth field in format DD/MM/YYYY and wish to set up 2 new fields one that calculates Age in Years and another that calculates Age in Months.
I have this code for calculating the age from birthdate but i want if there is years no months or days appear
Public Function CalcAge(Birthdate As Date) As String Dim intYears As Integer, intMonths As Integer, intDays As Integer intMonths = DateDiff("m", Birthdate, Date) intDays = DateDiff("d", DateAdd("m", intMonths, Birthdate), Date)
I have a [DOB] field with birth dates. I have another field [DOBExp] where I want to automatically calculate at date 15 days out, but exclude weekends and holidays. I have a separate table listing the holidays.
Would like a formula to use in my first table for this. Have no clue how to do this.
I have a table that imports data - including date of birth. the format is dd.mm.yyyy - the db keeps throwing up the error - Birthdate must be 8 digits. The only validation I have for the field is "<date()" to ensure that a future date is not entered.
So I have a macro in excel which imports data from the excel sheet to a table in access db. Now the excel file has 4 columns which have dates.
- I imported the excel file from access via access so that I can get the heading of the table and the table is created. Then I deleted all the data in the table. - When the table was imported 2 of the date columns got set as Short/text data type. Dont know why. - Now, if I leave the data type as it is in Access table, my macro button in EXCEL works fine and imports the data to Access. If I change the data type, in access design, of the two data columns to date type, I get the type mismatch error when I run the import macro button in EXCEL.
I am going nuts over this error. I even created a blank table in access and defined data types to all columns which would be imported from excel. but still excel macro button shows the same error.
I checked the format of all the four date columns is date.
I did a lot of hit and try and could it be the case that if access table fields are defined properly, but any of the data columns cells in excel sheet is null/empty, it will show the type mismatch error.
ALTERNATIVELY, is it possible and is there a way, that once the data is imported to access, I can convert the value in the column from short text to date type.
In a query I would like to extract the last ten years. This is what the data looks like:12/13 (Data type = text)(Short for 2012/2013 which actually represents 7/1/2012 to 6/30/2013.)
I am able to extract the "12" and turn it into the general number 2012 using: ("20" & Left([TAXYR],2))*1..But how can I convert that to the data type-date so I can include those records in the past ten years from todays date? I was trying to use DateAdd but I think the problem is the data type and where converting to date gives me "1905" or "9/##/1905." I get why it does that, but is there a workaround? Maybe adding 39,785 days?? (2014-1905)*365
I have a calculated(unbound) text field named(Age) on my main form. The Age is calculated based on patient's DOB(Date of Birth) Field using datediff function, and in the subform, I have a field named (AgeNo).
There is a criteria for AgeNo Field depending on (Age) field for each patient.
Criteria:
If Age is 18-40 = AgeNo should be 0 If Age is 41-60 = AgeNo should be 1 If Age is 61-70 = AgeNo should be 2 If Age is >71 = AgeNo should be 3
MRN (Med. Rec. No) field & Age are in Main form and AgeNo field is in a subform. I want the AgeNo field to automatically select ( 0, 1, 2 or 3 ) based on the calculated unbound text field(Age).
