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 created a call logging/work tracking type Database using SharePoint 2007 lists for the backend and Access 2013 front end for about 60 users and it has been running smoothly for around two years .
We use a shared outlook calendar and I want to be able to pull meetings & appointment information into the database from the calendar so I can assign the meetings out to specific people and keep of a record that they where given the request to attend. I was able to use the import outlook folder to create a linked table and it has lots of great information from the calendar apart from the two most important things you need in a calendar Start_time & End_Time . Is there something I'm missing in regards to these two fields? I assume I'm doing something wrong but I can't figure out what, nor did I have much luck with the Search function on here or google.
This is the list of field names it does import(everything apart from the meeting time and is it a recurring appointment) Importance Icon Priority Subject From Message To Me Message CC to Me Sender Name CC To Received Message Size Contents Created Modified Subject Prefix Has Attachments Normalized Subject Object Type Content Unread
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 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'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'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.
I am totally new to Access and this is my first database.
I have a database for volunteers in which one table is basically a calendar. In this table I have fields for the month, day of the week (i.e Monday) and day of the month (i.e 21st). There is also a filed called "Special days"
Sometimes I may want to produce a report that selects only certain days such as Saturday, Sunday and other days marked as "special days". Another time I may also want to produce a report that selects other days.
At the moment I have a "test filed" in which I place a 1 for those days i want to select then I choose all those with a 1. This is obviously a very poor construction.
(I did serach for past topics, & found one, but the solution pointed to a link that doesn't work; sorry...)
I have a database (well, a half-database at the moment) which is used to book a hall. I want to add a calendar to the bookings form, so users can see what they're doing more easily. This would only be useful, however, if I could grey-out days that have already been filled.
So is there any way I can do this?

I have a form and table which I use to collect some reservation information. I then have a subform/table which I use to enter the actual dates of for that reservation. This subform/table has only three fields. The foreign key field that links it to the main form/table, the date(s) entered and the subform/table autonumber primary key.
What I would like to do is use an ActiveX type of calendar as the subform and be able to select a range of dates. If someone is making a reservation for 8 days, I want to be able to select that range of days on the calendar and have create/enter all 8 of those records in the subform/table.
I would much prefer this as opposed to simply collecting a single IN date and a single OUT date.
Before I waste a ton of time trying to do something that just isn't possible, can one of you tell me if the following is possible?
I have a database that I am using for appointments.
Is it possible to have a calendar control on a form that shows all of a person's appointments that occur during the month? For example, Joe has 3 appointments in april. Can I make the calendar show me all three dates (the appointment dates being depressed on the control) that he has appointments on? If so, can you tell me how? I can make it do one date, by making the row source the date scheduled field from the table.
Should I have seven different fields in one record for the appointments that could occur all seven days of the week?
I am trying to build a form that accepts either a single date for start and stop dates whilst allowing a range of dates to be selected for operations that cover several days. I am using the Access 2003 calendar which is fine for selecting a single date but how do I select several dates (4-7 Mar for example) ?
I have a form bound to a table that has a bunch of dates in it. What I want to do, is to be able to have pop-up calendars on the form next to each date field, where the user can select dates from the calendar, then have those dates display on the form, and last but not least, update the date fields in the table.
At the moment, the form I'm working with let's me pick dates from little pop-ups and display the dates, but when I exit the form and then come back into it, the dates are gone! In other words, I'm missing something in the process between the dates displaying onthe form and the dates getting into my table.
If anyone has an idea as to what I might be doing wrong, I wouldappreciate your ideas and suggestions.
Thanks in advance. I don't know where I'd be without this forum!
Are there no arrays in Access? I am looking for a way to put sequential dates onto a calendar. An array would work fine, with an offset for Weekday(FirstDayOfMonth).
Is there a way to ONLY allow users to select a date starting today or in the future using the DatePicker? I want to disable any past dates on the calendar popup.
I have built a query to calculate the expiry dates of training courses but I am trying to input a criteria so that only dates within 90 days of todays date show. I am using Date()<90 but it doesn't return the correct information. What the criteria should be for this?
I have a table of records, which has within it two date fields (effectively, a 'start' and 'end' date for that particular record)
I now need to create a query to perform a calculation for each date between the 'start' date and the 'end' date
So the first step (as I see it anyway) is to try to create a query which will give me each date between the two reference dates, in the hope that I can then JOIN that onto another query to perform the necessary calculation for each of the returned dates.
Is there a way to do this?
So basically, if for a particular record, the 'start' date is 01-Apr-2015 and the 'end' date is 09-Apr-2015, can I produce a dataset of 9 records as follows :01-Apr-2015
(The *obvious* solution would be to create a separate table of dates, from which I could just SELECT DISTINCT <Date> Between #04/01/2015# And #04/09/2015# - but that seems like a dreadful waste of space, if that table is only required to generate the above? And it would have to cover all possible options; so it would either have to be massive, and contain every possible date - ever! - or maintained, adding new dates as necessary when they are required. Seems horribly inefficient!)
Is it possible to just select each date between the two reference dates? Or can you only query something which exists somewhere in a table?
