Hi all
Im wanting to open a sales report, but I want to be prompted to enter dates FROM and TO so that I can get specific sales.
Example
"Enter start date" here i'd enter 1/8/05
"Enter end date" here i'd enter 31/8/05
that way i'd get all sales throughtout august. Then when september comes round I could enter new dates and save me having to go in and change the filter.
Can anyone help?
Thanks
I have a query that records a status update, and the date it was made by an employee etc. The table has a secondary key related to ... lets say a project table.
E.g.
Status Id; EmployeeID;ProjectsID;Status;Date
I want to calculate the average amount of days it takes for a status change occur.
So I currently have a table that tracks medication activity for patients called tblMedRanges. The Fields are the ID, StartMedication, EndMedication, Med ID/Medication Name.
In the End of Medication, some patients are not currently active so they have a set date/time field property. What I have for right now is the default value is set to
Code:
=date()
So that when staff adds a new medication it is set to the current date. These patients are supposed to be active, but it doesn't update the default value. I want it to continue to update to the current date every time the database is open.
I have three options that I know of(or think I know of) to update but can't commit to one in particular :
1)I want these individual records in the field to update the current time for today and was considering using some kind of data macro code using before update.
2)The other idea I had was splitting up the field into an EndOfMedication field that would display a value only if their inactive, and an Active field (text, value list active/inactive choices) that would be used in a query to generate the current date as med field. This would take some crafty query work with comparisons later on to generate list of drugs that they were on for each visit.
3) set to text field and convert the field to date field for comparison in queries.
Hello,
I have a table which contains:
InvNo - Autonumber (invoice number)
AccNo - Clients account number
Amount - Amount of invoice
I also have this data (minus the InvNo) in a linked spreadsheet. I would like to keep the spreadsheet as it is all set up for the printing of multiple copies etc.
The idea is, I want to import the data from the spreadsheet into the database, which will then apply an invoice number (because it is an autonumber), and then get that invoice number back into excel.
I have done it all, but cannot get it to give me the invoice number assigned to it.
I thought I would have a simple query that looks for records in the table that are the same account number, and amount (plus a few others I havn't included here), and then it could return the InvNo.
But, whenever I run the query, it asks me to specify the parameter, it doesn't seem to be able to read from the linked spreadsheet (it is openable, I can open it in access just fine).
In the query I have put (under criteria): "[LinkedSpreadsheet]![AccNo]" (and similar for the other fields I want to match).
What is wrong?
Thank you!
Can I get my query to prompt for a specific date somehow?
Or....I am running a report off my query, can I get my report to prompt for a specific date?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a for form with a button to run a report. The report runs a query. The query reads data on the form to feed the report. The data that is from the table works fine but data from a text box on the form will not. It prompts for EXPR1.
In my query I have the following:
EXPR1: [Cnum]
[Forms]![FRM-Customer]![Cnum]

I have a report with a subreport. I have added a parameter to the query to prompt for [manager] or is null to get all managers. However, on the report when I enter a manager my count on the subreport still returns the count for all. So, I added the same prompt to the query for the subreport. It returns the right count, however, it prompts for the manager multiple times. How do I get it to prompt only once yet get the right total?

I Have a form bound to a table.
The form will be used by poor experienced users so to avoid problems i would like whenever we move to a new record(or changing the contents of a stored one) a save record message to appear refering to the one we are just leaving.
Generally i would like a solution which will restrict users from entering data by mistake using scroll mouse or ctr+page down.
If i could design it ,i would choose that nothing in the form is saved until a save all button is clicked.This means that the user will enter virtually as much data as he likes but they will be stored in the table only when the button is clicked,but i don't know if this is possible since my form is bound to table.
Thank you all in advance,

I'm using VBA to prompt users for two required fields. One I can do, but with more than one I get into issues like only 1 message box appearing at a time. If both fields are blank I want both messages to appear. Here's my code, it's in an On click function:
If IsNull(req_file_num) = True Then
MsgBox "Required field: File #. The appropriate file number must be entered before this PO's status can be changed to Filed."
GoTo Err_Command_158_Click2
End If
If Not [req_filed_date] Then
[req_process_status_rec_id] = 8
MsgBox "Your changes have been processed. This purchase order now has a status of Filed."
DoCmd.Close acForm, "frm_req_file"
GoTo Err_Command_158_Click2
Else: MsgBox "Required field: File Date. The appropriate date must be entered before this PO's status can be changed to Filed."
GoTo Err_Command_158_Click2
End If
Err_Command_158_Click2:
End Sub
I realize that it only shows one message box because I have the GoTo Err_Command_158_Click2 command, but I couldn't figure out how else to keep it from continuing through the code. If both "req_file_num" and "req_filed_date" are null, then I don't want the "req_process_status_rec_id" to change to 8 and have the form close.
Thanks for your help!
I'm trying do a Select Case on a form control where the user is prompted for information depending on the value in the control.
Here's a generic example:
If field1 = "Vegatable" then
Select 1 for Brocolli
Select 2 for Lettuce
Select 3 for tomato
If field1 = "Fruit" then
select 1 for "Banana"
select 2 for "Apple"
select 3 for "Peach"
I have a database table to which I will be adding multiple records from various other contributors. I would like to build a simple, import-friendly excel table that I can mail out to others, so that they can fill it out and send it back to me. Then I will save import steps as a macro or something similar, so that I can easily import their data.
The hard part is that I would like a way for Access to compare the new records with the existing records, identify potential duplicate records by predetermined criteria (in other words, 'wild-carded' to some level of specificity, since duplicates could be off by just a few characters), and then prompt me to examine each record to be imported alongside however many existing records that have been identified as potential duplicates. Then I as the user could:
1. accept the import record as a new record
2. decline importing that record since it is a duplicate of an existing record, or
3. edit by hand an existing record that is a duplicate of the proposed import, but may require additional information, and then decline to import the new one.After each prompt, I would like the import process to continue to the next potential duplicate, and when there are no duplicates, to complete the import and display a message box that says "Import complete".
how to read a specific line in a CSV file (using VBA), to see if the phrase "There are no records available." is present.
If it is present, then I'm going to do a debug.print stating that there are no records to load - and then the script will move on to the next file. If the phrase isn't present, then I'm going to upload the file to Access, parse the information, and then upload it to a CRM. (I already have the latter portion of the code up and running....I just need to account for the first part, where I can determine if the file has data or not).
The structure of the file never changes. The first row is composed of eight column headers (Post Date, Card Number, Card Type, Auth Date, Batch Date, Reference Number, Reason, Amount) and (if) the phrase "There are no records available." is present, it will show up on the second row, in the first column (under Post Date).
Hi,
I have recently been doing a lot of work on this area. Im able to export to where i want to and run macros through the VBA code inside of Access to edit the spreadsheets. This is ok if your making a new excel workbook/worksheet.
But what im stuck on is exporting to a so called template in excel. I can export to it at the moment but creating a new worksheet, in which i have to then cut and paste the data into the correct worksheets through code and then delete the worksheet that i had been working from (which is annoying because you have to confirm the deletion of this worksheet, which is why i couldnt really do the process this way).
What i want to know is there a specific way of telling the data you are exporting from a table/query/querydef to go into a certain worksheet and into a certain cell. For example; a list of names, i want all the Surnames to go into a worksheet called "Claim_Breakdown" and start from cell "A15" downwards until they have all been exported into the worksheet.
Anyone have any ideas on how i could achieve this? Thanks.

Hello, I have just spent ages doing searches and reading everything I can on locking. But, I have yet to find an answer as to how I can lock a specific field in a specific record.
e.g. Staff enter customer details, then at the end of the day the admin (me) checks it over and presses a big old button that stops them from locking certain fields in the current record only - they must still have access to the unlocked fields of the current record, and it must not lock any other records.
I'm guessing there's some VB code in the form of fieldname.lock = true, but then it locks the field throughout the whole table!
Can anyone tell me how to do this please?
Any way to have a form with Dates as column headers to update a table where the dates are stored in rows???
The table set up is like this:
tblOpHdr
DiaryID (PK) - OpDate (Date)
tblOpDetail
DiaryID (FK) - CostCode - MachineNumber - MachineHours - etc
I'm just wondering if there's any way I can do this with a datasheet or a crosstab type setup?
It's Access 2010.
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?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI 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
02-Apr-2015
03-Apr-2015
04-Apr-2015
05-Apr-2015
06-Apr-2015
07-Apr-2015
08-Apr-2015
09-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?
Hiya-
I have a database with 5000 entries, corresponding to about 10 entries for about 500 people. Each of the entries is dated, and I need to calculate the time intervals between each person's sequential entries in the table.
One way of doing this is to create another column that contains the date of the previous entry. I can then use DateDiff to subtract one date from the other and give me the difference in days.
This approach falls down if I then work with only a subset of the entries - I would have to re-enter the previous entry dates as the time intervals would have changed.
What I really need is a way of subtracting the date from the date in the cell directly above it. Will Access let me do this, or is there a better way?
Many thanks, Jules.
I have two tables with dates. Between (!) every two following dates in table1, I want to know the number of dates in table2. How do I write an SQL query for this? The tables I have are up to a few hundred records in table 1 and a few thousand records in table2. So to prevent that this takes hours I need a fast query.
To explain the query I need, for example:
table1
01/01/2014
15/01/2014
17/01/2014
30/01/2014
table2
01/01/2014
02/01/2014
05/01/2014
17/01/2014
18/01/2014
20/01/2014
21/01/2014
25/01/2014
So the answer of the query would be 2,0,4.
Explanation:
Between 01/01/2014 and 15/01/2014 in table 1 there are 2 dates in table2 (01/01/2014 is not included between the dates)
Between 15/01/2014 and 17/01/2014 in table 1 there are 0 dates in table 2
Between 17/01/2014 and 30/01/2014 in table 1 there are 4 dates in table 2
I have a master table which shows all transactions per record (person) over a financial year.
Each record person has a seperate package period over which their spend needs to be measured. Therefore although I have all their transactions for the year, I only want to sum their transactions between their given [start date] and [end date] which are in columns.
I need to be able to create a field which sums all expenditure per record between the start and end dates
Name Start Date End Date Invoice Date Amount
Matt 15/5/11 15/9/11 1/11/11 £100
Matt 15/5/11 15/9/11 7/7/11 £200
Matt 15/5/11 15/9/11 12/12/11 £200
In this case I would only want to sum 7/7/11 as this is between the start and end dates
I want to write something like sumif([Invoice Date] is between [start date] and [end date] - not sure where or how exactly
(The start date and end date will always be the same per person)
Is this possible in access?
I am new to access i have a problem which is i have made a form which contains a subform and a read only subreport, what i want is the ability to select a record in read only subreport as in the picture attached and make a button that when i press on it, it should copy the values of the itemsID field, Packing field, ContainerNo field and origin field from the selected record and then paste them in the subform below.

Hi,
Please bear with me here as it's a little involved.
I'm doing a staff profile website which includes a section where they can enter their annual/other leave details.
I decided to store their leave in two fields Start_Date | End_Date rather than each individual date that they took - the short and wide approach vs long and narrow.
This has left me needing to do a query that would return all the dates between the start and end dates inclusive.
Example:
StaffID---Start_Date---End_Date
---1-----12/12/2004--14/12/2004
Returns:
StaffID---Leave_Dates
--1-------12/12/2004
--1-------13/12/2004
--1-------14/12/2004
I appreciate i could do this using some script to loop through a recordset and build an array of dates but i wondered/hoped that it could be done using SQL.
As it is an asp page i can't use user defined functions in a VBA module in Access so the solution would need to be pure SQL.
Is this possible?
Any help v.much appreciated.
