MSACCESS Import Date Problem
Mar 11, 2006
I'm trying to import a tab delimited text file into MSAccess and its driving me nuts!! How hard can this simple thing be? I have a text file thats rather large (300Meg in fact) and it has a field that is a date/time but msaccess refuses to import it as such. If I import as text and then change the field to date/time it will work but I can't do this on my file because access reports that its run out of memory in converting the field type (2.5M rows).
I've tried setting up the table prior to importing the data and setting the field type but it make no difference. Any help here appreciated because this should be simple!!!
The format of the data that I'm trying to import is.

You can even make this a single row and try importing it and access drops it so obviously I'm very dumb!!
Thanks:confused:

I am having to import data from a txt file on a daily basis. The date format in one of the fields is:30-Sep-2004 09:40:57 PM EDT. I want this to be in a short date format. I don't care about the time at all. If I try to import the data with this field set to Date/Time (regardless of format) it simply deletes the data in that field and goes to the next. If I import it as a Text field, it brings the date in as above.
Once the data is imported to the table, I can change the property of the field to Date/Time --> Short Date and it does the conversion. Is there a way to do this conversion automagically? I can't quite get any of the queries to work.
TIA for the help.

AND A.user_id = B.user_id

I need to use various activeX controls in MsAccess2003. I downloaded a few activeX controls but I am having a problem with licensing. I registered the controls and the registration succeeded but when I try to add this ActiveX control on a form in MSAccess, I get the message that I don't have the license required to use this ActiveX control and that I should obtain the appropriate licence from the company that provides the licenced OLE object or ActiveX control. Any ideas on how to overcome this problem?

Hello,
1/ I occasionally run into this error: "The instruction at "0x77fc823" referenced memory at "0xfffffff8". The memory could not be "read".
Click on OK to terminate program."
Do you know if this error message occurr ONLY on certain computers using Access 2000? Since this error popped up on one of my co-worker but NOT on mine. I even tried to re-install Access 2000 again, but the error message still pop up when tried to open a report. Also, the last three digits of instruction number "0x77fcZZZ" change everytime. Please help!!
2/ For some reason, I was coding VBA on one of the procedure on Form_Load, then certainly Access 2k does NOT let me go in the code of any control. WHY!! I am frustrated!! I tried to go in different way, but does not work
Thank you so much.

I import the type of driver licence (a b or c) and date of driver license into an access table through an application that I didn't write and don't know how to adjust..
a b c works perfect
BUT date doesn't. when I don't fill in a date it gives 30/12/1899. This is verry confusing and I would like it to import null or nothing into the access database when date isn't filled in. I tried all kinds of things with the settings of the table in wich the date goes but nothing seems to work.
I think validation rule or standard Value should be able to help me but the things I tried didn't work.

Hello All,
I am new here and new to Access.
I have created a query which allows me to schedule daily events. But I want to automate this. Let me explain what i am trying to do.
Every morning at 7 am I want this query to run and the output of which to be mailed to myself. All this without me having to hit any button of sorts.
I have a long shot but very inefficient answer to this - which would be - having to leave my MS ACCESS running all night with an infinite loop checking to see what the system time is. When the infinite loop equates to 7 am it runs the query. But I think this would be a massive memory guzzler and I don't like this solution. Is there something else I can do?
Thanks for you time.
Regards

I've written a vba macro that takes data from Excel, processes it into an XML file & then imports into Access.All fields were fine apart from the date field, which appeared in the Access table as "00:00:00"...The date in the XML was appearing as 01/01/2014.
Code:
dateTemp = [date here]
xmlFieldElement.Text = Year(dateTemp) & "-" & Format(Month(dateTemp), "00") & "-" & Format(Day(dateTemp), "00") & "T00:00:00"
This produces 2014-01-01T00:00:00...Note, putting the date into reverse order without the formatting also causes the import to result in 00:00:00

Hi there,
This may mean stupid question to you but I find that some of the events or types in the properties which give me 'no meaning' at all.
For example, has module on form, on retreat on report. THIS IS ONLY A sample, my list would be endless.
Thanks in advance

For anyone that might be able to help me out, I'd very much appreciate it, as this is now number 2 stupid workaround that I'd like to resolve before I need counselling...;)
I have a Date/Time field that I'm importing into my database via .csv files. The field is setup like the example below in every .csv file:
4/2/2007 8:30:00 AM
Access keeps throwing errors and deleting all the field values in this field whenever I try to import. I know that Access does this when a Date/Time field includes data that is not delimited, but these field values seem to be perfectly formatted to me... what can I do to stop Access from chucking these on import?
Right now I'm just importing the data into a "text" field, and then changing it to "date/time" afterwards, but I'm worried that once the table gets too long I won't be able to re-index all those records anymore and my database will be useless since it depends on that field being "date/time" format...
All those better than I feel free to show me how and where I've been stupid:D

I am building a database using data imported from Excel workbooks. The dates in the workbooks are formatted as text in the YYYYMMDD format. Is there a way to convert this into date format during the import or after? I am pulling in a lot of different workbooks and trying to avoid having to reformat each individual workbook prior to importing them.

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.
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.
