MS Access Query Help. Expression For Calculating Multiple Expiration Dates.
Feb 28, 2008
Hi everyone
I'm a very very new access user so many apologies in advance for when I have no idea what I"m talking about.
I'm working on creating a report that will display multiple expiration dates. Currently I have an employee database, not created by me, that has all of our employees professional licenses listed.
Prof license, auto license, liability, etc.
I want to create a report that will tell me what has already expired or will expire in the next 30 days.
I did use this
Between DateAdd("d",-30,Date()) and Date() and it is bringing back info up to 2009. which isn't what I need. I'm sure I'm doing something wrong here.
I want anything that has expired regardless of the date from today, before today, and 30 days from today but I don't care about anything more than 30 days from today's date.
I noticed that when I looked at the existing database that the fields are set as text fields. I tried to change them to dates and it gave me a "deleting 106" records error message. Yikes!
Any help would be appreciated. I don't really understand expressions and I don't understand if I'm supposed to put the actual date in parentheses or what. Please pardon my ignorance.
Many many thanks.

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 database keeps track of training for employees, some of which expires after a period of time, which is in the tables. I need to create a query that displays only the employees and the training that expires during the next 30 days. I have a query that displays the expiration date (this field uses DateAdd and adds the expiration term to the date the employee completed the training) I am trying to add a criteria to this field. I found <=Date()+30 in my searches but that displays all of the records from 12/14 and back. I have tried all kinds of versions of this (obviously, not the correct one) and either get all records or none. (Yes there are records in the database that fall within the the period I am trying to display - that is something that I have been known to forget)
Is it because I am using criteria in a field that is based on DateAdd or what would be the correct criteria for this?

I've built an an update query that updates a Yes/No field "Expired?" to "Yes" if the expiration date has passed i.e. if the current date is newer than the expiration date. I thought this would translate into the current date being greater than the expiration date?
UPDATE Alert
SET Alert.[Expired?] = 'Yes'
WHERE Alert.Current_Date>Alert.Expiration_Date;
When I run this, it identifies the records to be updated, but then stops updating the fields due to "a conversion failure."

I am trying to create a database to analyze expiration dates of multiple products.
Let me lay out what I am trying to accomplish.
I have 5 ambulances, each ambulance has the same quantity of medications on it. There are three separate locations medications are stored on each truck. Each month I need to be able to update expiration dates, query what medications will expire by a set date and where exactly they are located.
SO here is the structure as I see it.
Ambulance 1 contains, a drug drawer with approximately 30 different medications, a trauma bag with about 10 different medications, and a blood glucose kit with 2 different medications. Now some of medications are repeated in the different locations, but have different quantities. The medications will never all have the same expiration date, and medication 1 might have 8 vials, where medication 2 may have 4 vials. I would like my form to be dynamic based on the inventory level of the medications. That way if we decide to keep 10 vials instead of 8 the form will then require the 2 extra data points.
The tables I have created so far...
table 1 lists all the ambulances
table 2 lists medications in the drug drawer and the inventory level
table 3 lists medications in the trauma bag and the inventory level
table 4 lists medications in the blood glucose kit and the inventory level
I need to create a table to store my expiration dates for each of the locations in each of the ambulances.
I need to create a form to simplify the entry of the data into those tables and I want the form and table to be dynamic to the inventory level.

I've can do this on excel but don't know how in Access. I'm calculating bonuses. My table has salaries, and my query simply multiples each salary amount by a % to get the bonus amount. But I need to calculate adjustments to the bonuses using the sum total of the bonuses my query calculated:
Salary (from table) Bonus (calc'd by query) Adjustment (to be calced)
100,000 1,000 Sum of total bonuses/salary*4%
90,000 900
How do I capture the total of my calculated bonus column to use to calculate the adjustments in my right-most column?

Hi, I am a longtime Excel user, and am now migrating some work to Access.
I have 2 fields dealing with dates in the format mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm, OPEN and CLOSE
I'd like to get the difference between the two in hours, but I have no idea how or where to do this in Access. I'm assuming it is put into the queries, but it would be easier if I could just put it in the table.
Here is an example
1/1/2008 1:00 1/2/2008 2:00
I want the result to be "25"
Thanks in advance!

I've imported an Excel file into a table and now I've created a Query from it.
I now need to Add Fields (names are not in the table) and calculate totals for these renamed fields some of the answers are going to be the result of two or three fields.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi All,
I have fought hard to try and figure this out and I have gotten 50% there.
I have a query that generates the following calculated fields through numerous calculations etc....:
[De-Merit Marks]
[No Del with Major Faults]
Now the way it should work is that a supplier gets a rating (A-D) depending on both their De-Merit Marks score and the amount of deliveries with major faults. I used the following function in the query and it does the de-merit mark grading.
Rating: IIf([qry_vend_rating2]![De-Merit Marks]<=10,"A",IIf([qry_vend_rating2]![De-Merit Marks]<=30,"B",IIf([qry_vend_rating2]![De-Merit Marks]<=50,"C",IIf([qry_vend_rating2]![De-Merit Marks]>=51,"D",""))))
However I have no idea how to integrate the Major Faults part.
Basically:
0-10 = A
11-30 = B
31-50 = C
51-100+=D
If the supplier has one major fault, the rating should drop one from that reported using just the de-merit score. Two means it drops two ratings (so if an "A" on just the demerit, they would drop to a "C" and so on. Obviously a supplier cannot drop below a "D".
Can anyone suggest how these maybe acheived? I fear it requring VB code, but I am not that good with VB hence why I have relied on queries for this.
TIA

Hi everyone,
My query is coming along nicely, but as always once one problem is solved you find another :rolleyes: !
My problem is that I have thus far specified criteria for the field OrdDeliveryCountry, but this field is not filled in unless the delivery address is different from the default address for the customer, therefore it is frequently blank and so the query wasn't finding all records, only those where the Delivery Address was specific to the order.
I want to use the IIf function to make an expression to say (in linguistic terms):
If OrdDeliveryCountry is blank, then use the country in the Customers table.
Sounds simple enough, but the criteria currently is:
WHERE (((ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Austria"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Belgium"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Cyprus"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Czech Republic"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Denmark"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Estonia"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Finland"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "France"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Germany"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Greece"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Hungary"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Ireland"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Italy"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Latvia"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Lithuania"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Luxembourg"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Malta"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Holland"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Poland"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Portugal"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Slovakia"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Slovenia"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Spain"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Sweden")
AND ((PRODUCTS.PRODUCTNAME) NOT LIKE "*Upgrade"
AND (PRODUCTS.PRODUCTNAME) NOT LIKE "*Repair"
AND (PRODUCTS.PRODUCTNAME) NOT LIKE "*Rpr"
AND (PRODUCTS.PRODUCTNAME) NOT LIKE "*Commission")
AND ((ORDERS.[DEMO/SALEID]) = 2))
So how do I combine the IIf(expr,truepart,falsepart) with "Is Not x Or x Or x"?I.E. I need to get it to exclude records where OrdDeliveryCountry does not equal one in the list, and if that is blank then the Country field in the Customers table does not equal one in the list?
My attempt is this, but I think I'm way off the mark
SELECT ORDERS.SHIPDATE,
PRODUCTS.[STANDARD TARRIFF NUMBER],
[ORDER DETAILS].[QUANTITY] * [ORDER DETAILS].[UNITPRICE] * (1 - [DISCOUNT]) * (1 - [SPECIAL DISCOUNT]) AS LINETOTAL,
[ORDER DETAILS].QUANTITY,
ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY,
ORDERS.ORDERID,
[ORDER DETAILS].PRODUCTID
FROM CUSTOMERS
RIGHT JOIN (PRODUCTS
RIGHT JOIN (ORDERS
LEFT JOIN [ORDER DETAILS]
ON ORDERS.ORDERID = [ORDER DETAILS].ORDERID)
ON PRODUCTS.PRODUCTID = [ORDER DETAILS].PRODUCTID)
ON CUSTOMERS.CUSTOMERID = ORDERS.CUSTOMERID
WHERE (((ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = IIF(ISNULL([ORDERS]![ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY]),([CUSTOMERS]![COUNTRY] NOT LIKE "Austria"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Belgium"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Cyprus"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Czech Republic"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Denmark"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Estonia"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Finland"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "France"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Germany"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Greece"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Hungary"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Ireland"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Italy"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Latvia"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Lithuania"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Luxembourg"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Malta"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Holland"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Poland"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Portugal"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Slovakia"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Slovenia"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Spain"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Sweden"),
(([ORDERS]![ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY]) NOT LIKE "Austria"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Belgium"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Cyprus"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Czech Republic"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Denmark"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Estonia"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Finland"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "France"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Germany"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Greece"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Hungary"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Ireland"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Italy"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Latvia"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Lithuania"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Luxembourg"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Malta"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Holland"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Poland"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Portugal"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Slovakia"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Slovenia"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Spain"
OR (ORDERS.ORDDELIVERYCOUNTRY) = "Sweden")))
AND ((PRODUCTS.PRODUCTNAME) NOT LIKE "*Upgrade"
AND (PRODUCTS.PRODUCTNAME) NOT LIKE "*Repair"
AND (PRODUCTS.PRODUCTNAME) NOT LIKE "*Rpr"
AND (PRODUCTS.PRODUCTNAME) NOT LIKE "*Commission")
AND ((ORDERS.[DEMO/SALEID]) = 2))
ORDER BY ORDERS.SHIPDATE DESC;
My thoughts:
Maybe I need to re-structure the WHERE clause?
Would it work if the IIf expresssion was in the SELECT part not the WHERE part?
I would really appreciate some help with this: I'm not sufficiently familiar with structuring statements as complex as this and I don't know all the syntax rules etc.
Thanks in advance!!

I have a table "main" with 2 colums (main_id,date_out). This table has a link to the table "refill". This table has 3 colums (refill_id, main_id, refill_date).
Example data:
TABLE MAIN
main_id - data_out
01 - 01/01/2006
TABLE REFILL
refill_id - main_id - refill_date
01 - 01 - 10/01/2006
02 - 01 - 16/01/2006
03 - 01 - 21/01/2006
When I make a simple selectquery with the fields main.date_out and refill.refill_date I become the the next result.
01/01/2006 - 10/01/2006
01/01/2006 - 16/01/2006
01/01/2006 - 21/01/2006
Now the problem.
I have to calculate the days between the main and refill dates
01/01/2006 - 10/01/2006 ( is the same as above)
10/01/2006 - 16/01/2006
16/01/2006 - 21/01/2006
suggestions????......thanks

I am trying to create an expression in a query to sum only the # of hours a student attended between two date fields. I do not want to use a parameter because each student has different start and midpoint dates and I need to see all of them in one list.These are the fields I'm using in the query:
Student Name
Start Date
Midpoint Date
Hours
It keeps giving me "0" or if I move the () around it says the correct syntax is [NOT]
Expr1: Sum([Hours]) between [Start Date] & [Midpoint]))

I'm trying to create an expression to calculate percentage.
The fields, Value A and Value B might both have null values, but I do not want Access to treat nulls as zero (as in the Nz() fn). How do I get the expression to exclude any nulls and not calculate for those rows, but set the calculated value for a row with null A or B to zero.
I want it to set no calculated value to zero so I don't get overflow errors and can therefore order the data by the calculated field.

Hello,
I'm trying to get a number of days between an employee's hire date and today's date. The employee is supposed to change levels every year until reaches 6 yrs. The sample employee hired on 11/13/2001 and today's date is 1/13/2006, so it should be only 4 yrs (level 04). I tried assigning the levels with this function DateDiff('d',[STEP TABLE].[Hire Date],Date()) AS [Total days] and also with this code below.
Switch([Total Days] Between 0 And 365,"Lvl 01",[Total Days] Between 366 And 730,"Lvl 02",[Total Days] Between 731 And 1095,"Lvl 03",[Total Days] Between 1096 And 1460,"Lvl 04",[Total Days] Between 1461 And 1825,"Lvl 05",[Total Days]>1825, "Lvl 06", [Total Days]=0,Null)
The function's results gives me 1522 days and according to my code the level is "05" (5 yrs). What am I doing wrong? Should I use a different function to calculate the days, so in this case would be 4 yrs and not 5?
Please help!
thanks,
Pablo:confused:

Calculating dates between TWO date ranges:
I've read alot of good things on here regarding the DateDiff function and some other things that have helped me out finding the difference between two dates within the same entry on a table. I have a question regarding finding the difference in days between two entries within the same table.
Example:
test table:
Date ID # Name
1/18/07 1234567 Smith
1/20/07 1234567 Smith
1/23/07 1234567 Smith
Is there a way to find the difference in days between the lowest and highest dates? I want to know how many days are between the first entry and the last entry? In this cae it would be five days. I can do it if the days are in the same entry with the datediff function, but having trouble finding it in this situation. Any pointers?
(Thanks for all the good information on this site, BTW. I've seen a few posts similar to this, but it didn't really answer my question)

I have a form with two date fields: "Initiation_date", and "Correction_date". There is a third field called "Duration". I would like to store the values of all three fields in the corresponding table. "Duration" (Long Integer) would be the number of days from "Initiation_Date" to "Correction_Date" if Correction date is there, or to Date() if Correction date is Null.
I can use an unbound text box to get "Duration_cal" using the following as a control source:
=IIf(IsNull([VCor_date]),DateDiff("d",[VInit_date],Date()),DateDiff("d",[VInit_date],[VCor_date]))
But I cannot get that value (No.of Days) in to the "Duration" field. The reason I want to have "Duration" stored as a number is that it is being used in a query for another calculation (total days used for selected records).
Is there a simple way to accomplish this?
Thanks

I currently have a table that has patient ID (unique record (SSN)) and a date of visit field. The SSN may have numerous rows with different dates of visits. What I am trying to do is a DateDiff function that will retrieve records that are 48 hours apart or 2 days apart. We are tracking patients that return within 48 hours of a previous visit.

I am tring to add a number of years to a dob. I'm doing this by adding my
date+years*365.26 I get a string of numbers. I then convert the number in
the next column to actual date again. I'm getting the correct date. I've tried unsuccesfully to use the dateadd function.Now I want my criteria on that column to allow me to return only date in a given to from period of my choosing. I want to determine the date range each time I run the query.
An example would be:
DOB age date I need to follow up
5/15/1935 + 75 = 5/15/2005
Then I request dates between 4/1/05 and 5/30/05 and this date is returned.
I've tried the between_and functions but nothing is returned. I'm guessing it's because the column is still a calculation and not a true date.
I've tried: Adding a column to my query to convert the number string back to
date format (criteria failed to return a result). Adding a second column
that ='s my converted number to date column (criteria failed to return a
result)
And I've tried the make table query and then run another query from the new table. I can't seemto make this happen. I think it's not recognizing my data as a date because it isn't returning any data.
Is ther an easier way to: Add a number of years to a date and have it return
a date and not the number string?
If not is there a better way to convert the string to a date?
Is there a way to get my criteria to recognize the date and return date
between my begin and end dates?
Thanks
