Another String To Date Conversion Problem

Oct 6, 2006

I have a table with a text field to receive dates or "na" or "n/a". From this, I am trying to run a query that selects all dates that are not "na" and not "n/a" and not null. This works fine with a criteria of

"Is Not Null And Not In ("NA","N/A")"

The problem is, I also must select a date range. In the query, I have created a calculated field equal to various date conversion functions and they all seem to work at converting the text to date. However, I get a Type Mismatch error any time I try to do anything to the date field such as select a date range or to sort on it.

Any suggestions?

Modules & VBA :: Invalid Character In Import String

Jun 16, 2015

I have a program that has been working for a year or so, it imports records form a text file created by a web site. Someone has entered a hex("1A", "A8" in a name field. It is shutting my program down. I tried a alphanumeric check to replace it and a length check to try and skip the record but the program thinks it is at the end of the file and quits reading records. Is there a way to get rid of characters like this in vba?

"5407 MUYF3I23 GIS..LE "

Here is what I have tried

Code:
If Len(strread) <> 591 Then
MsgBox "Invalid Record Read " & strread
GoTo Skip_Loop
End If
If AlphaNumeric(CStr(Trim(Mid(strread, 32, 11)))) Then
!HT_FName = CStr(Trim(Mid(strread, 32, 11)))

Modules & VBA :: Code To Find Particular Character In A String

Aug 29, 2014

I've got a string variable with a value that could be typically

"ABCD|123|R"

The string needs to be split into its three parts, the pipe symbol being the separator. Then the middle numeric string must be converted back to a long.

I know i could do a loop which identifies each character in turn, but my question is:

Is there a VBA function that can pick out the position in the string of the "|" characters, so i dont need a loop ?

Modules & VBA :: Converting String To Variables?

Jan 30, 2015

I am trying to set up some template emails using text someone has entered in a form with a variable indicated with a key word in brackets aka. [ChangeID] or [ChangeDate]. The field on the form is formatted as Rich Text so I am getting http code. (No problems yet) In the form the template is required, I lookup the template required and I get the string. I replace the brackets with the following

Code:
strleftB = Chr(34) & " & me."
strRightB = " & " & Chr(34)
strTemplate = Replace(strTemplate, "[", strleftB)

I then get a string but in need to convert part of the string into variables, before I capture the correct output for my email

Code:
"<div>RFC Submission: <strong>" & me.ChangeID & ", </strong> " & me.Details & "</div>"

My question is: what is the best way to split the string into strings and variables

Converting Two Date/time Fields To One Integer

Sep 15, 2006

Hi,

I'm combining two date/time fields in a query to an integer. The first field has the date, the second the time. I'd like the resulting integer to be without the opening 0. How can I do that?

That is, these are the two fields:
2006-09-14 (date/time)
15:00:20 (date/time)

And I'd like those two combined to be 60914150020 (integer) in the third field in the query.

Grateful for advice!

General :: Formatting Time Conversion - Calculated Elapsed Time

Dec 3, 2013

Formatting issue regarding elapsed time calculated using DateDiff().

I understand that you can specify the output value for DateDiff(). In my case I have chosen "n" for minutes. Each result in my query shows the correct calculation in terms of minutes.

[PunchIn] = 11/23/2013 8:11:28 AM
[PunchOut] = 11/23/2013 5:43:30 PM

[ShiftLength] =DateDiff("n", [PunchIn],[PunchOut]) = 572 minutes.

Now when I try to format the result in terms of H:MM (be it in a form or a report) I get varied results. I'll illustrate an example below:

=Format(([ShiftLength]/60),"0") & "." & Format(([ShiftLength] Mod 60),"00") Returns 10.32 Not correct

=Format(([ShiftLength]60),"0") & "." & Format(([ShiftLength] Mod 60),"00") Returns 9.32 This is correct but I need my result to be in the form of a decimal such as my next example

=([ShiftLength]/60) Returns 9.53333333. Getting there but how do I have this result only show two decimal points 9.53?

Modules & VBA :: How To Add A String To A Date

Feb 27, 2014

I want to add a string as year to a date.

Somehow it doesn't work out. It should extract all records with Valid_from = 01.01.2013 and valid_to = 31.12.2013. The Year assignment works.

Code:
Public Sub BEN()
Dim strSQL As String
Dim t As Date, s As Date
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
Year = Right(pricedate, 4)
t = 1 / 1 / " & Year & "
s = 12 / 31 / " & Year & "
strSQL = "SELECT TRANSFER_PRICES.* INTO [TEMP] " & _
" FROM TRANSFER_PRICES " & _
" Where [Valid_from] = " & Format(t, "#mm/dd/yyyy#") & _
" AND [Valid_to] = " & Format(s, "#mm/dd/yyyy#")
DoCmd.RunSQL strSQL
DoCmd.SetWarnings True

Converting Text String To Its ASCII Value?

Mar 18, 2015

I have a string that includes mm/dd/yyyy + person's name. All of this is concatenated and is recognized as a text value. Then I want to convert all of these characters to a number. Since each character has an ASCII code, I would like to find ASCII equivalent.

In Excel, this would involve using something like the CODE ( ) function, but that only gives the numerical equivalent for the first character in the string, but I want all characters at once.

When I try the VAL ( ) function, it returns the first character which is the number of the month.

Time Conversion

Aug 29, 2006

I have placed a combo box on the form. The combo box displays time from 7:00 to 13:00 in the same format. There is a label adjacent to combo box that converts the time selected in the combo box to IST. the code for this is like this

Dim arrLoginTime() As String
arrLoginTime = Split(cmbLoginTime, ":")

lblIST.Caption = Format(TimeSerial(CInt(arrLoginTime(0)), CInt(arrLoginTime(1)), 0) + TimeSerial(10, 30, 0), "hh:mm AM/PM") & " IST"

If I select 12:00 it converts correctly and displays 10:30PM IST. When I select 13:00, it displays 11:30 AM IST instead of 11:30 PM IST.

Any idea how is it behaving and what to do to correct it?

Modules & VBA :: Inset Date Add Code To SQL String

May 22, 2015

I am trying to add 30 or 45 days to a certain date and insert that date in a table. The field is declared as datetime on the SQLServer and has been tried with all date formats, and none, on the access side.The problem I am encountering is that the date is being inserted as 12:00:00 in the table, no date is being stored.When I print out the SQL statement to the immediate window, the date in question shows the correct date.

Code:

Dim a As Date
Dim b As Date
a = DateAdd("d", 45, Me.DateOfExit)
b = DateAdd("d", 30, Me.DateOfExit)
strSQL = "INSERT INTO MyTable ( No, Name,DueDate, OriginatedBy, ID, Status) " & vbCrLf & _
"VALUES (" & Me.No & ",'" & Me.Name & "', " & b & ", '" & Me.Facilitator & "', " & Me.ID & ", '" & "Required" & "');"

I have tried adding the date add code to the SQL string, but that produced the same result.

Modules & VBA :: Getting A String With Month / Year From A Date

Apr 7, 2015

I need to use VBA to get a string which is essentially just a month and year (so date, not including day)

Would Prefer it to be 04/15 as opposed to April-15, as the number is easier to sort than the word (how to sort month names in numerical order as opposed to alphabetical id).

So that I assume i could do by =format(now(), mm/yy) (though havent actually tested it)

However to add to the complexity id also need to add a month to it, so for instance todays date is 08/04/15, id need the string to read "05/15"

or if the date was 10/12/15 id need the string to read "01/16"
