Help Needed With Dates.
Jan 10, 2007
I run a trainers database to look after Students attendance records. The training sessions are annually so I would like to flag up a warning 90 days before their attedance date so that I can get a reminder letter off to them.
I think its to do with queries and I have a feeling that the criteria would be something like 365-90. Can any one help me please?
I have a fair knowledge about Access but its expressions like this I wouldn't know how to start.
Any recommended reading would be helpful to.
Thanking you in anticipation,
jim.spiers

Any way to have a form with Dates as column headers to update a table where the dates are stored in rows???
The table set up is like this:
tblOpHdr
DiaryID (PK) - OpDate (Date)
tblOpDetail
DiaryID (FK) - CostCode - MachineNumber - MachineHours - etc
I'm just wondering if there's any way I can do this with a datasheet or a crosstab type setup?
It's Access 2010.

I have built a query to calculate the expiry dates of training courses but I am trying to input a criteria so that only dates within 90 days of todays date show. I am using Date()<90 but it doesn't return the correct information. What the criteria should be for this?

I have a table of records, which has within it two date fields (effectively, a 'start' and 'end' date for that particular record)
I now need to create a query to perform a calculation for each date between the 'start' date and the 'end' date
So the first step (as I see it anyway) is to try to create a query which will give me each date between the two reference dates, in the hope that I can then JOIN that onto another query to perform the necessary calculation for each of the returned dates.
Is there a way to do this?
So basically, if for a particular record, the 'start' date is 01-Apr-2015 and the 'end' date is 09-Apr-2015, can I produce a dataset of 9 records as follows :01-Apr-2015
02-Apr-2015
03-Apr-2015
04-Apr-2015
05-Apr-2015
06-Apr-2015
07-Apr-2015
08-Apr-2015
09-Apr-2015
(The *obvious* solution would be to create a separate table of dates, from which I could just SELECT DISTINCT <Date> Between #04/01/2015# And #04/09/2015# - but that seems like a dreadful waste of space, if that table is only required to generate the above? And it would have to cover all possible options; so it would either have to be massive, and contain every possible date - ever! - or maintained, adding new dates as necessary when they are required. Seems horribly inefficient!)
Is it possible to just select each date between the two reference dates? Or can you only query something which exists somewhere in a table?

Hiya-
I have a database with 5000 entries, corresponding to about 10 entries for about 500 people. Each of the entries is dated, and I need to calculate the time intervals between each person's sequential entries in the table.
One way of doing this is to create another column that contains the date of the previous entry. I can then use DateDiff to subtract one date from the other and give me the difference in days.
This approach falls down if I then work with only a subset of the entries - I would have to re-enter the previous entry dates as the time intervals would have changed.
What I really need is a way of subtracting the date from the date in the cell directly above it. Will Access let me do this, or is there a better way?
Many thanks, Jules.

I have two tables with dates. Between (!) every two following dates in table1, I want to know the number of dates in table2. How do I write an SQL query for this? The tables I have are up to a few hundred records in table 1 and a few thousand records in table2. So to prevent that this takes hours I need a fast query.
To explain the query I need, for example:
table1
01/01/2014
15/01/2014
17/01/2014
30/01/2014
table2
01/01/2014
02/01/2014
05/01/2014
17/01/2014
18/01/2014
20/01/2014
21/01/2014
25/01/2014
So the answer of the query would be 2,0,4.
Explanation:
Between 01/01/2014 and 15/01/2014 in table 1 there are 2 dates in table2 (01/01/2014 is not included between the dates)
Between 15/01/2014 and 17/01/2014 in table 1 there are 0 dates in table 2
Between 17/01/2014 and 30/01/2014 in table 1 there are 4 dates in table 2

I have a master table which shows all transactions per record (person) over a financial year.
Each record person has a seperate package period over which their spend needs to be measured. Therefore although I have all their transactions for the year, I only want to sum their transactions between their given [start date] and [end date] which are in columns.
I need to be able to create a field which sums all expenditure per record between the start and end dates
Name Start Date End Date Invoice Date Amount
Matt 15/5/11 15/9/11 1/11/11 £100
Matt 15/5/11 15/9/11 7/7/11 £200
Matt 15/5/11 15/9/11 12/12/11 £200
In this case I would only want to sum 7/7/11 as this is between the start and end dates
I want to write something like sumif([Invoice Date] is between [start date] and [end date] - not sure where or how exactly
(The start date and end date will always be the same per person)
Is this possible in access?

Hi,
Please bear with me here as it's a little involved.
I'm doing a staff profile website which includes a section where they can enter their annual/other leave details.
I decided to store their leave in two fields Start_Date | End_Date rather than each individual date that they took - the short and wide approach vs long and narrow.
This has left me needing to do a query that would return all the dates between the start and end dates inclusive.
Example:
StaffID---Start_Date---End_Date
---1-----12/12/2004--14/12/2004
Returns:
StaffID---Leave_Dates
--1-------12/12/2004
--1-------13/12/2004
--1-------14/12/2004
I appreciate i could do this using some script to loop through a recordset and build an array of dates but i wondered/hoped that it could be done using SQL.
As it is an asp page i can't use user defined functions in a VBA module in Access so the solution would need to be pure SQL.
Is this possible?
Any help v.much appreciated.

I have a scenario where the first three rows of date which have dates of 4/1, 4/4/ 4/6 with ndc 5513026701; next six rows that have dates from 4/8 to 4/20 with ndc 5513014801; next three rows that have dates from 4/25, 4/27, 4/29 with ndc 5513026701.
The issue I am having is I do not know how to have separate min/max dates for ndc 5513026701 since when I group by ndc 5513026701 min = 4/1 ; max = 4/29. I need to have min = 4/1 and max = 4/6 for one row and another row of min = 4/25 and max = 4/29.
Any easy way to sequentially create min/max for each ndc 5513026701? I wasn't sure how to verbalize this so I have attached a sample worksheet.....

I'm not sure if I am biting off more than I can chew. I have a text field in each record in my database (Inherited) The db has nearly 5,000 records. I would like to split the field into records in a seperate table. An Example of the table as is now;
Code:
MemberIDBoats
5882Opossum(78-80) (87-89) Otter(80-84) Opportune(91-93) Turbulent(97-00).
5883Astute Auriga Aeneas Affray Amphion
2407H34 O10 Porpoise Trenchant Tapir.
I want to create a table as follows;
Code:
MemberIDBoatFromTo
5882Oppossum19781980
5882Oppossum19871989
5882Otter 19801984
5882Opportune19911993
5882Turbulent19972000
5883Astute
5883Auriga
5883Aeneas
5883Affray
5883Amphion
Etc.
Is this possible in one hit or do I need to process the records without dates first and then run another process to split those with Dates? I say dates but the field is a text field. About 15-20% of the records contain dates which are always enclosed in parenthesis.

I need some help on a database that is set up for work use.
It's rather large and I have no technicial knowledge of access whatsoever so an answer in plain english would be appreciated.
I have attached a picture of the screen that i am having the problem with. The blank fields contain peoples names and addresses. On this page i have to click on "update service user" on the first user, the database opens a seperate page and i enter a few details, then i click to go back to this screen.
When I return back to the screen, the scroll bar is at the top of the list. This is OK when I am doing the first few letters of the alphabet (the users are listed alphabetically) but when i have too use the scroll bar and choose the letters later down the list, then click to update then return to the screen and the scroll barr is not where i left it...ie: it's at the top.
So what I am asking is, is there a way of freezing this scroll bar so it will stay there even when i have navigated away from the screen to update each user?
If someone could answer me this query then I would be most grateful as it's quite time consuming for me to use the scroll bar and find the next person that i need to update.

Hi, looking for help big time!! I am a novice at using MS Access and struggling like hell. I have been set a project at University that requires me to import data from Excel, sort the data (i.e the data imported will be for a whole year and I am only interested in looking at single months), use calculations on the data imported and display this graphically. Is this possible with Access?? Any help will be gladly received as Im desperate.:(

I have a multiple user access database on share drive with user-security level created. I created myself as administrator, and remove default Admin from Admin group. Removed permission from user group and joined workgroup file which I created as "MBS work group.mdw". I created shortcut on user's computer. I believe the syntax is correct
"C:Program FilesOffice 2003OFFICE11MSACCESS.EXE" /wrkgrp "\ServerNameMBS DatabaseMBS Work Group.mdw" "\ServerNameMBS DatabaseMBS.mdb"
Everything works fine. When I directly double click the database (MBS.mdb), it pops up a login box. However, when other user double clicks the database directly (not from shortcut) from their station, login window doesn't pop up. It allows them to access the database. I saw the work group file used default System.mdw
My question is how can I restrict them by double clicking the database without go through shortcut? Why my database security not protect user access without give user name and password. I tried by joined user’s work group file to MBS work group.mdw. It works, but I don’t want let user manually to do that one by one.
Is there anybody can help me go through this problem?

Hi,
I am fairly new to DB's and have been trying to get my head round a database I want to build. I have had a few pointers from other people on here which has helped etc.
I was wondering if anyone out there would mind helping me with this project. I will go into detail if anyone is interested. I am hoping that someone would let me add them to messenger so when I get stuck etc, I could drop them a quick note. I am not going to harrass you every minute of the day (I promise not to try to anyway :D ). I would like to work with someone so I dont have to keep explaining it to someone different each time.
If this is something that someone wouldnt mind doing, please, please, please let me know.
Many thanks
Jamie

So far I haven’t got help on my DB.
I am attaching my DB.
The DB has two tables: DiaryTable & RBCaseTable
I want to resolve two issues on this DB
First issue: The DyNo field will start from No.1 on new year (DMax function). Since there will be duplicate records with the same DyNo for every year, I want to filter the records year-wise. For the current year, I should be able to do data entry, edit, search, print etc. For the previous year’s records, no data entry should be allowed and only search and print to be allowed.
Second issue: Two fields in both the tables are same i.e. DyNo and Remarks. I want this to be linked. What I want to do is that after I open ‘frmRBCaseAdd’ when I type the DyNo, the form should show the ‘Remarks’ field of DiaryTable so that I could update/edit.
I know nothing about VBA coding etc. Whatever codes I put in this DB was obtained from this forum and I simply made changes to suit my requirements. However, I failed to get help on these two issues. I shall be grateful if you could kindly help me. Thanks in advance.

I need help please.
1. I have a [CmdBtn] to do some calculation on the first day of every month.(The Btn and calculation code are ready and working).
2. On clicking, the [CmdBtn] will look for [FieldTotal] entry. If no entry, it will execute.(This code is also fine and working).
3. While executing the command, it will populate the [FieldTotal] automatically so that second clicking of [CmdBtn] will take no action and the populated field will tell the user that calculation is already done.(Code for auto-populating is also fine and working)
4. On the last day of the month, the [FieldTotal] entry will be deleted.(Here also the code works fine.).
I have two tables Table1 & Table2. I have the form for Table1. The [FieldTotal] is in Table2. I inserted a TextBox in form and tried to link it to Table2.FieldTotal throu Data-ControlSource, but it is not working. When I open the form ‘#Name?’ appears in the [FieldTotal]. I tried changing the field property to Text and then Number. In both options, I get the same ‘#Name?’.
Interestingly, when I leave the text box as it is without linking it to Table2, the [FieldTotal] in my form appears blank. Here I am able to populate the [FieldTotal]. But when I exit and reopen the form, the text box is again blank.
Please guide me (1) in linking the Table2.[FieldTotal] to my text box in form (which is based on Table1) or (2) how to keep the text box entry permanent till the end of the month.

Ok i have a database works fine just run into a little porblem..
In My VBA Coding i have made a SQL quiery the code is..
Private Sub Form_AfterInsert()
DBEngine(0)(0).Execute "INSERT INTO availability (ID) " & _
" VALUES (" & Me.ID & ")", dbFailOnError
'---------------------- Below Is The Code That -----------------------
'-------------------------- Doesn't Work -----------------------------
DBEngine(0)(0).Execute "INSERT INTO availability (Name) " & _
" VALUES (" & Me.Name & ")", dbFailOnError
'----------------------------------------------------------------------
End Sub
ok so the insert of ID works but the insert of Name does not..
Am i doing something wrong?? can somebody help please i need it urgent..
P.S.
i have been using MySQL for about a Year working on PHP and it seems much different from this SQL here on access.. and my suggestion would look something like this
"INSERT INTO availability ('ID','Name'), VALUES ('Me.ID','Me.Name')
Something along Those Lines..

Ok am designing a website for an airline company using access as d database end & asp for coding & stuff. My problem is a table i called flight. I have to write out a flight schedule in d database but am not sure how to do it, i wrote a schedule down in words using days. let me explain that, what i did was i have about 10 countries my airline company flies to, so what i did was grp 5 countries to fly mondays,weds,fridays & sundays & d other 5 fly tuesdays,thursdays & saturday.
