I'm a couple of years removed from Access and shaking off the rust. I hope someone can help with something that may be obvious but I'm missing.
I'm simply looking to pass the begin and end dates to a query driving reports. The calendar form includes unbound text boxes, txtBeginDate and txtEndDate. My code populates the text boxes correctly; the user clicks on the calendar date, clicks the calendar day, then the Begin (or End) Date control, and each populates the respective textbox.
But when I run the query or report, I'm prompted for the parameters. This is what I have in the query's Date field criteria:
Between [Forms]![frm_Calendar]![txtBeginDate] And [Forms]![frm_Calendar]![txtEndDate]
I'm just drawing blank on what I did several years ago to make this work. If anyone can help, I'm most appreciative.
I am trying to enter dates in a form that calls a report that invokes a query that uses the dates. It has been a less then satisfying experience. I am getting a Run-Time error 3122. Is it possible and I need to work on syntax or do I need to think of another way? BTW how do I lookup the Run-Time errors? Thanks for helping an old guy learn new tricks. Jim
I have a query that is generating two colums, one the states the Start Date and the other that States the End Date. I need to display another column that displays the time difference between the two. Any ideas how?
Trying to compare start and end dates using a query so this is what i have but nothing is comming up wrong way to go about this? i need to do this for every month till 2012
Expr1: [Start Date]=[Start Date]>1/1/2008 Show: No Criteria: True
Expr2: [End Date]=[End Date]<1/1/2008 Show: No Criteria: True
I have created a query that prompts the user for a start and an end date and proceeds with showing the data between those dates.
I was wondering if there was anyway that instead of the user typing in the dates, a calendar could pop up and they could pick the start and end dates instead?
If that isn't possible is there anything else that's simpler that I can do? Maybe like a list box for month, date, and year?
I would like to run one query that can accommodate entering twelve possible date ranges and output the data all in one query. I could accomplish that by writing 12 queries and attaching each one to a start and end box on a form and then doing a Union Query to obtain one result. I think this might be the long way to accomplish this.
Is there a better way to get the result on one query for multiple Start and end Date Ranges?
I've restructured my 'application' to have one table and a lot of query/forms. In light of not figuring out the combo box situation I altered the requirements and what I needed thinking I may have an easier go of it, but alas not exactly my experience. I have 5 reports that I want to filter them by week(start of the week). I have a function which can turn any regular date entered to the start day of the week(monday). I thought my best way about this would be to fill a combo box with all the accepted dates through a separate table's column.
Is there a way to pop a dialog box when the user clicks to generate the report that will prompt them to choose a week then run that criteria against the report and only bring back that date?
I have a db tracking vacation times for staff. One of the fields tracks a members vacation start and end dates. I need a way to pull a report to see who is on vacation based on Date() (today).
For example:
A record for John Doe has him start vacation 08/19/2014 and end vacation on 8/28/2014. If I wanted a report that shows who is on vacation today, 08/25/2014, using the date() function), how would I do this?
ID Program Year Program Start Date Midpoint Date Internship Date End Date
I have successfully created queries to create reports showing all Start Dates by Month no matter what program and similar reports for all the other date queries. What I need it to do is list everything happening within a month and sort them by category. How do I do that? I've attached the database so you can see my queries as well as the main switchboard reports associated.
I have a report that shows a Start Date and an End Date. I also have a control that shows a date which I'm wanting to check. I tried the conditional formatting to create something that says When this date is greater than start date and less than end date I want the cell to be Red.
Good afternoon, I have a form with a subform and in the first txtbox of the subform in the GotFocus event I have a little procedure which checks the txtboxs on the parent to make sure that there is data in all four of the txtboxes. This works great the first time and it pops up a msgbox and it even setsfocus on the txtbox with no data in it, but if I tab into the subform a second time and there still is no data in one of the txtboxs on the parent form, nothing happens, no message and no setting focus on the txtbox with no data in it. Does anyone know of a way to get this procedure to re-set everytime a user tries to enter the subform? Thank you in advance to anyone offering and ideas and suggestions.
In my db I have a password log-in for each user. During the log-in process, I have a query set to run:
Code:SELECT tblSetOut.LogNum, tblSetOut.WoNum, tblSetCont.SetContName, tblSetOut.OrdAssign, tblSetOut.WoStat, tblSetOut.ThirdParty, tblSetOut.DateIn, tblSetOut.DateOut, tblSetOut.ThirdTimeIn, tblSetOut.ThirdTimeOut, (DateDiff("n",[ThirdTimeIn],[ThirdTimeOut]))/60 AS [Release if Greater than 24]FROM tblSetCont INNER JOIN tblSetOut ON tblSetCont.SetContInitials = tblSetOut.SetContInitialsWHERE (((tblSetOut.WoStat) Not Like "released" & "*") AND ((tblSetOut.ThirdParty)=True)); It opens up in read-only form that the user can print or exit out of.
What I need to happen is for the query to run based on the user's log-in name. There are three tables involved (tblSetOut, tblSetCont, and tblSecurity). The tbl SetOut and tblSetCont are joined at the field SetContInitials. The tblSecurity (field SC_NAME) is joined to tblSetCont at SetContName.
For the life of me, I cannot figure out how to capture the log-in name to filter the query.
I'm trying to create a PTQ and just cant seem to find the source table.
The name of the source table is PRM1_ORG_MTRX3_N
If I write my query like this, I get an error code that states username.PRM1_ORG_MTRX3_N is an undefined name. It adds my userid to the beginning of the table name.
Then I rewrote the query like this, and I got and error code that said PRM1.ORG_MTRX3_N is an undefined name. Does anyone know what else I can try here to get this query going? Thanks
Can you do a pass through Query to a pivot table when your query has parameters? I'm reading like you can't, but nothing has been said concretely yet. When I do it, it gives me an error "Trouble Obtaining Data" when I try and set the layout.
I have created a simple query that is used as the record source of one of my forms. I want to pass the query a different criterion each time the form is opened.
Any suggestion/example on who to do that will be very much appreciated.
I have an Access front-end connected to Oracle tables. When the user opens up the main form to add a new entry, I need to be able to pull the next sequential record number. However, I can't get this to happen, without filling out the entire record, saving, and then it will committ the number.
Can this be done with a pass-through query to the Oracle table, find the next sequential number, and then add it to my record id (ie, 06-1050, with 06 being the year and 1050 the next sequential number). I do have two fields in the Oracle table TXTYear and LNGNumber. This concatenated field is related to three additional tables that have more information. Each of these tables need to cascade a new record.
I just started working for a company the other week and they threw this query onto my lap with an unrealistic deadline. My programming experience is primarily in VB6, so I am not completely familiar with coding Access queries.
I was given code that was written for SQL, and the programmer that came up with it is unfamiliar with Access, so I am stuck trying to decipher this. If anyone could help me out, I would greatly appreciate it, as I am thoroughly confused and don't know where to begin. Here is the programmer's original code: while exists(select top 1 accNum from NoteFile where patindex('%' + char(10) + '%',dbtrref) > 0) begin --Insert note into table insert into #TL19Note(AcctNumber, Note) select accNum, (case when patindex('%' + char(10) + '%', dbtrref) <= 0 then dbtrref else left(dbtrref,patindex('%' + char(10) + '%',dbtrref)) end) from NoteFile
--Delete note from Note String update NoteFile set dbtrref = right(dbtrref,len(dbtrref)-len(left(dbtrref,patindex('%' + char(10) + '%',dbtrref)))) where len(dbtrref)-len(left(dbtrref,patindex('%' + char(10) +'%',dbtrref))) > 0
--Delete rows with no more notes delete from NoteFile where len(dbtrref)-len(left(dbtrref,patindex('%' + char(10) +'%',dbtrref))) <= 0 or patindex('%' +char(10) + '%',dbtrref) <= 0 end
--Eliminates any that are CRLR or just spaces delete from #TL19Note where len(Note) < 10
--Update the date update #TL19Note set NoteDate =left(Note,patindex('% %',Note)-1), Note = right(Note,len(Note)-patindex('% %',Note))
--No '@' means no time? update #TL19Note set NoteTime = '0000' where left(Note,1) <> '@'
--delete the '@' - we know which ones have it because NoteTime is null update #TL19Note set Note = right(Note,len(Note)-patindex('% %',Note)) where left(Note,1) = '@'
--Update NoteTime, take time out of note update #TL19Note set NoteTime = left(Note,2) + substring(note,4,2), Note = right(Note,len(Note)-patindex('% %',Note))
Hello, Really hope someone can help me. I have 2 lots of info in 1 table - nameley customer address & posting address
I need to print a form that always has the posting address on the same side. but in some cases if the postal address is the same as the customer address then it is not filled in. hope this makes sense:
I have a VERY simple select statement that I am using in a pass-through query: "SELECT * FROM dbo_vReturn;", but I cannot get this to work. Each time I run the query it generates an error: "ODBC call failed - Invalid object name "dbo_vReturn" (#208)".
The dbo_vRteturn is a view in the backend. I can open this table/view from Access using an ODBC connection but when I try to run the pass-through query it falls over!
Does anyone have any idea what is causing this?:confused:
I have a query that I want use as a pass-through query (SQL Server databases).
The query has a sub-query that references another database. The query runs fine in Enterprise Manager because EM allows me to access both databases.
If I wanted to I could link both tables through ODBC and then run an Access query that would do the same, however, I would rather use a pass-through-query for this.
The problem is that a pass-through-query in MS Access only allows me ONE ODBC connection (as far as i can tell).
My question is: Is there a way I can run a sub-query (referencing a different database. i.e. second ODBC connection) which references a second database?
I am struggling with what seems like should be a straightforward task. Unexpectedly however it has become an infuriatingly difficult one (no doubt due to my complete novice status).
I have a very basic d/base (3 tables) that I have been searching using basic SQL queries. I want to create a simple 'search' form that produces the results of my various queries without the need to work in SQL. Enter one or more search criteria, hit ENTER, results presented in datasheet perhaps?
Thought this would have been easy but I've had no luck. Can you please explain how I can pass a parameter from a form to a query?
