The table I want to run the query on has a date in the format of dd/mm/yyyy. I want to be able to run a query so that the user can type in a month and all records with dates in that month will be shown.
I have done this before many years ago but now have a mental block and cant figure it out.
I found the following code on this site in a search for a method to subtract two dates ie [Startdate] and [EndDate] and display the result as a whole number. ie 2, 6 etc. This code finds the difference but displays the results as 1 year 5 months 2 days, where I need the equivalent as 17. Can this code be modified to produce the desired result and if so how would I go about it. Thanks for the help.
Option Compare Database Option Explicit
Public Function getTimeElapsed(StartDate, Optional EndDate As Date) As String On Error GoTo Err_Handler
If IsNull(StartDate) Then getTimeElapsed = "No startdate" Exit Function End If
Dim YY As Integer Dim MM As Integer Dim DD As Long
' use current day if EndDate is not supplied, ' + 1 makes both days inclusive. EndDate = IIf(EndDate = 0, Date, EndDate) + 1
MM = DateDiff("m", StartDate, EndDate) DD = DateDiff("d", DateAdd("m", MM, StartDate), EndDate)
' recalculate if DD is negative. If DD < 0 Then MM = MM - 1 DD = DateDiff("d", DateAdd("m", MM, StartDate), EndDate) End If
YY = MM 12 ' integer division. MM = MM Mod 12 ' remainder.
getTimeElapsed = YY & IIf(YY < 2, " year ", " years ") & _ MM & IIf(MM < 2, " month ", " months ") & _ DD & IIf(DD < 2, " day", " days") Exit Function
I need to find Customers who have not had a meeting for over three months and i need to list them in a query, please could someone help me as this is getting very frustrating
I have a problem in calculating the difference between two dates and displaying the output into Years Months Weeks Days. My problem is that dividing the number of days by 30 and requesting an integer is not accurate enough. I have looked at Pat and Jons examples shown in these threads
which either method would suit me as the accurate answer is what I am after.
My problem is that not all of my records would have a start and end date. Therefore both examples would result in an error.
Can anyone please give a hint on how to perform the calculations on those fields which have dates recording the results but ignoring those fileds which do not have a start / end date.
I am having a bad day and I'm sure the answer is so easy that I am going to kick myself but having played around with the modules by limited knowledge is not enough.
I have a query that is supposed to be showing todays data (as it is labeled) but it keeps pulling today's number date (i.e. the 1st, or the 17th) for every month, when i only want June 18th not including jan/feb/march etc. 18th.
I started running this query in may, that's why it only shows may and june's data.
I'm thinking it's definitely a problem with the criteria but check out the attachments and let me know
I want to create a cosstab query with dates for the next 12 months accross the top as columns and employee names down the side as rows. I then want to populate with data showing what each person is programed to do under the dates. For instance trainer 1 is delivering training from the 23/06-30/06 then designing a course from 02/07-10/07. that type of thing.
I could represent an activity using a colour i.e. yellow for delivery, green for design etc.
Also do I need to create a table with all the dates? Is there a quick way of doing this?
Find the difference between two dates is simple if you're simply looking for the number of days between them. However, if you're looking to express the difference in a bit more user-friendly way, you can use the following code to calculate the difference in years, months, and days. The code accounts for zero values, plurals and the Oxford comma. Further, it automatically sets the later of the two dates to the End date, so the dates can be used interchangeably.
Examples: June 4, 2010, July 3, 2012 returns "2 Years and 29 Days" June 4, 2010, July 5, 2011 returns "1 Year, 1 Month and 1 Day" June 4, 2010, June 5, 2010 returns "1 Day"
Code: Function DiffOfTwoDates(dtmDate1 As Date, dtmDate2 As Date) As String ' Written by Will Knapp, Freelance Access Developer, 2013 Dim dtmStart As Date, dtmEnd As Date Dim strDiff As String ' Resulting String Dim yDiff As Integer ' Year Difference Dim mDiff As Integer ' Month Difference Dim dDiff As Integer ' Day Difference Dim CommaLoc As Integer
I want to create a simple query from a list of orders dating back over 12 months.
The fields I have is Ord_Date, Qty
I need to show the orders by month for the last 12 months.
The problem I am getting is that the orders for the month of April (as we are in April now) contain orders from 1st - 22nd April 2013 and orders from 23rd - 30th April 2012, therefore confusing the figures.
I would just like orders grouped by month with a total qty dating back 12 months, but without any old orders for the current month.
I am creating a multi-search form for a student database, where after I enter my search criteria I hit a "Run Query" command button and then it opens a query form with all of my criteria.So far I can search using last name, first name, and middle name. When I try to search with a start date and end date I am have issues.The start date and end date is for the class date. In the query form under the field, class date, for criteria I wrote:
Between IIf([Forms]![Search Form]![Start Date]="",1/1/10,[Forms]![Search Form]![Start Date]) And IIf([Forms]![Search Form]![End Date]="",4/25/15,[Forms]![Search Form]![End Date])
I want it when I write a date in the start date and end date I want it to give me a list of all the students who took the course between those dates. Also, if I leave the dates blank I want it to search all dates. The dates 1/1/10 and 4/25/15 are just the dates I gave because that is far back as my database goes.
I currently have a form where users can enter an "End Date", click a button, and it queries the data from 12 months prior to "End Date" entered.
Is there a way to force the query to show all 12 months, even if there are no records for a particular month? For example: if the user enters February 2013 in the date field, I would like the query to return:
March 2012 April 2012 May 2012 June 2012 July 2012 August 2012 September 2012 October 2012 November 2012 December 2012 January 2013 February 2013
...so even if June 2012 has no records, it is included in the query with a value of zero.
This is what I have so far:
WHERE (((Qry_Tbl_Assets.Dte) Between DateAdd("m",-12,[Forms]![Main_screen]![End_Date]) And [Forms]![Main_screen]![End_Date]))
I am trying to format an excel spreadsheet through access, specifically trying to convert a column from text to dates (I receive the data in text format and need to translate it to dates).
Code: Dim excelApp As Object Set excelApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application") excelApp.screenupdating = False excelApp.Visible = False Set excelWB = excelApp.workbooks.Open("Z:DataBasicSMData.xlsx")
[Code] ....
I'm no longer getting an error, but it isn't actually modifying the spreadsheet...
Why doesent this work aa = Me.Due aa = DateAdd("m", aa, Date)
Tasklist.RowSource = "SELECT [Tasks].Staff_Name, [Tasks].Project_Title, [Tasks].Percentage_Complete FROM [Tasks] WHERE [Tasks].Date_Allocated < " & aa & " ORDER BY [Tasks].Staff_Name;"
I'm trying to calculate the number of days between two dates using the iif statement
Fields: [LDW] "Last Day Worked" [ReturnedDate]
DESCRIPTION: If ReturnedDate is null, then calculate the datediff "d" between LDW with Now(), if not, then calculate the datediff "d" between LDW with ReturnDate.
I tried this but it didn't work at all.
Days Absent: Iif(isnull([ReturnedDate],(DateDiff("d",[LDW],Now())),(DateDiff("d",[LDW],[ReturnedDate])))
I'm trying to build a query with an iif statement to calculate expiration dates within a query. For some reason what i'm trying to do is not working as expected.
Here's the situation. Every employees with an exception of two employees in the company has an expiration 2 years after the class took place. The two exceptions are the certified instructors who's training certification is good for three years.
I've created a query with the employeeid, training subject, and maxoftraining date.
I'm trying to write an if statement to give me the expiration date based on the above information. Here's what I have so far; however its not calculating based on the criteria.
Expiration: IIf([tblemployee]![EmpID]=1 Or 2,DateAdd("yyyy",3,[maxoftrainingdate]),DateAdd("yyyy",2,[maxoftrainingdate]))
At this point in time, all "expiration" dates are showing + 3 years rather than just the Employee ID's 1 and 2 and the rest +2 years.
My issue is that I am trying to update a date field. When I do the date field may have a date or may be a null. When I try to pass in a NULL date with no quotes, I get a syntax error. When I have single quotes in the statement and a null value is passed in, I get an invalid use of date.
Dim DENIEDDATE1 As Date If (Not IsDate(rs.Fields("DENIED_DATE"))) Then DENIEDDATE1 = Null Else DENIEDDATE1 = "'" & rs.Fields("DENIED_DATE") & "'" End If
update table1 set table1.denieddate = " & denieddate1 & " 'get Update syntax error with this statement update table1 set table1.denieddate = '" & denieddate1 & "' 'fails due to invalid use of null
I am trying to calculate a value based on comparing the current date to the dates in these fields. I am using the below formula. However, using 6/27/2013 as the current date, my formula keeps resulting in "Bronze" when it should result in "Standard" Am I doing something wrong?
=IIf(Date()<[Bronze],"Standard",IIf((Date()>=[Bronze]) And (Date()<[Silver]),"Bronze",IIf(Date()>=[Silver] And Date()<[Gold],"Silver",IIf(Date()>=[Gold] And Date()<[Platinum],"Gold","Platinum"))))
'WHERE ((OperationalRiskEventTable.DateReported)>=Forms!U pdateForm!UDateBegin And (OperationalRiskEventTable.DateReported)<=Forms!Up dateForm!UDateEnd)'
in a query by form.
The problem is that you have to enter a date in the between values for results to show. If I don't enter information into a different field such as Full Name but I enter in 40 into Age then everyone that is 40 years old will show. On the other hand if I enter 40 into the Age field but I leave the Date Reported fields empty then no results will show.
How can I change it so that I don't have to enter dates into the date reported fields for results to show?
Now, I know that something in the UPDATE statement does not match my select statement.What should my Update Statement be, in order to update all the columns in the joined tables?
