Hoi,
Is there any way I can add the date to come up automatically (i.e. today's date) on a field called 'order date' on my orders form. I currently have an input mask on this table field (i.e. dd/mm/yyyy) if this is any help/hiderance?
Thanks for any advice !
Hello everyone.. I'm new :).
I'm working on a school database project and I am developing a Gym subscription/registration system.
Basically, once a user enters his/her personal info, they are taken to a second form where they can enter the subscription plan type (there are three plans).
Now, this is what I'm stuck on.. When a user enters a subscription start_date, I want the next field 'Exp._Date' to update to a year later, automatically.
So for example, if you enter 09/02/2005 in the start_date field, then the next field would automatically be filled with 09/02/2006.
Is it possible? And more importantly, how? I'm fairly new to DB's so please lay it in laymens ;).
Thanks guys.
PS: A screenshot of the form is located below:

You know the scroll ball wheel thingy on your mouse inbetween the two mouse buttons.
On a form i created if you scroll up and down on it it scrolls through the records on the form.
Is there anyway i can stop this from happening?

This is going to be a dumb question for all you Access experts, but how do I insert a field that will automatically display the date that the record was created (not updated, but created)?
Thanks!

I am trying to create a function whereby when I update a memo field or a field where I put in notes, after I am done, it will automatically put in the current date.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHey ASP Fam,
I am putting this form together that involves the user to enter in the current date 2/20/2007 in that format. Is there a script or something i can do in access that will autmatically put the current date in the date field and just update the date as each day changes everyday?
Thanks N Advance
OK, next question. I have a query for my database that asks for all records reviewed on a particular date. I've got it set up so that when I run the query, it will ask me for a date range and then run the query only bringing up the records that meet the date range criteria. I then developed a report from this query and it too asks for a date range when I run the report. My question is this: I hit the button to run my report, the box asks me for a beginning date and then a ending date. I enter the date range and the report runs great. Is there a way that after I put in the date range, that date range will show on my report? Thanks once again for your help.
Example:
NAME OF REPORT
1/12/07 - 1/20/07 (this is the date range I entered)
Body of report
I've got a form that writes to a database for news articles.
Is it possible to set up Access so it automatilcally inserts the date of when the article was added to the database??? Ideally in the dd/mm/yyyy format.
This might be basic stuff to the more advanced user but its all new to me :)
Hi,
Probably this question has been asked before, but I'm new here. Don't know if the question should be asked here and hope that my English is good enough.
I have a database in which I change the content of the records on a regular base. There are two dates in it. One is the day I made/added a new record, one should be the date I made the last change, but I can't get it to work. I have been searching the Help-option in Access as well as Google to find an answer, but so far no results. I don't know anything about Visual Basic, so if you answer please keep it simple.:o

Hello all how are you? im kindda new in the are of access(2 months)
Im making a db for company which its purpose is salary managment.
now i have a basic question
I have a table named Months which hold parameters like: "price of food","Car Value" and more..
I have field named: "Month and Year" and i want that the default value of this field would be the last month plus 1.
for example: if the first record in "Month and Year" is--> 07/2007
the second record would be 08/2007.
i have tried to use the default value in the tbl properties but it didn`t work for me
hope you can help my guys . thnaks
I have a query that allows the user to see how many hours we've flown, sorted by month for the current year.
Problem is that in the query I have to manually put in the criteria "january 2007" or "february 2007" or etc....
What I would like it to be able to do is based on the current year (2007 for instance) set the criteria by itself. Someday I might not be around to reset the year in the criteria so therefore it should be automated.
Anybody have an idea what I'm talking about and a simple solution a hack of a programmer could figure out?
Thanks.
I have a date field (WhitesDue) that I want automatically filled in when information in another field (Conditions) in another table is entered. The field Conditions is a number field and depending on the number of conditions determines when the whites are due.
I saw the other thread, Automatic Date Function, and was wondering if it was possible to put an if then code in to have the date updated with different dates depending on the number of conditions and the date that the information is put in. For example if someone is putting information in today and they have 4 conditions then I want the date to be automatically filled in with 8/17/04 (is it possible to factor weekends in too?).
Does that make sense? Can anyone help me out here?
Okay I stepped through some code that I have in the Conditions after update event. It works, it puts the date in the code like it is supposed to. Now, how do I get it to put the date into a field on another form?
If [Conditions] > 3 And [Conditions] < 5 Then
[Whites] = Now + 2
ElseIf [Conditions] > 5 Then
[Whites] = Now + 4
Else
[Whites] = Now + 1
End If

How to design a Query that will add a specific date to a Table every month?
In my case, I would like to add / append new record entries on the first day of each month - for example.
Do I have to start with a table that has ALL the future dates required, or is there any other solution?
How can I create a database which automaically inputs the date and time when a value is placed it another collumn.
e.g 3 collumns= name, date + time
When the name is inputted the present date and time are assigned to the name.
If the name is changed then the date and time are updated to the present.
Many Thanks.

Hello,
I have a quick question on how to enter the current date in a record automatically when the record is created.
Here is the situation. Say I have a Products table that lists the products that have come into the inventory. There is a field that denotes the day the product was introduced into the inventory. So ideally when the user creates a new record for the product, I would like this field to be populated automatically with the actual date that this filed was created by the user. Note that in future the user may edit the product (i.e other fields in this record), but the entry_date field should not be altered from what it was the first time is was created.
Is there a way I can do this? Any help much appreciated. thanks.
I have a memo field on a form. I am trying to autopopulate it when entered into. For example: I enter in clients info and then tab to the memo field and it automatically enters date and time. Then later when I go back to that same record to append to the memo field it adds the current date. This way I can go back and see all the dates and times when that person called. Any idea how to do this? Thank you

Also allow dated updates in the same field
Many thanks
I have a database that contains 13,772 records and each record contains 34 fields. The database is used for historical research purposes. As I am constantly changing the content in one or more fields I would like to be able to have a field that would show the date of any changes that are made to any of the fields in any given record. Additionally I would like to be able to run a query, lets say every six months and extract all the updated records.
View 6 Replies View RelatedThe project I'm working on is an action list with the following tables;
itemnumber - autonumber PK
originator - text
dateentered - date/time
actiondescription - text
assignedto - text
targetdate - date/time
forecastdate - date/time
actual date - date/time
remarks - text
due - text (not sure if this will be correct)
Basically, when a new task is entered, all info will be manually filled in except last 3 fields. targetdate needs to be locked after entry, and forecastdate initially set to targetdate.
"due" should show how many days between dateentered and forecast date, and preferably update everytime the DB is opened. IF the current date is beyond the forecast date, "due" should read "OVERDUE".
Changing forecastdate would obviously reset the "due" field to show how many days left to complete. If a date is entered into actualdate, then "due" should show COMPLETE.
Reports will be generated based on what is coming due, what is over due, and not show what is already complete.
Just wanted to confirm which is the best way to create an automatic back up of a access DB. (Split DB, backing up the BE - Access2010)
Firstly I was thinking of just creating a batch file to copy the file to a new source directly with a task scheduler set up.
Ideally I'd like it to run daily and have the date of the back up added to the end of the filepath.
How to create a table that has a recurring entry, based on a start date and a nominal interval period of e.g. one calendar month?
Is it possible to have these entries applied automatically each time so that they appear, as required, when the table is opened?
For example, for the entry of regular payments due per month.
I am in the process of development of a database and one of the functionality that I would like to achieve is a custom ID to become automatic on my 'ADD-CUSTOMER' form (e.g. CID0001 - CID0002) so on an so forth. From my research all I can see in access 2010 is a autonumber which cannot be altered (or at least i don't know how).

any ideas???
I am tying to create a setup application in access. The setup forms are incorporated in the database application.It has to split my database into a FE and BE so that the corresponding files can be placed in thier corresponding files folders automatically.
Iam doing this because the database has to be exported to a number of remote locations every after two weeks.
Apart from using the Database Splitter, Could there be any Ideas on how i can split and link my database through code.
