Pulling A Date From One Table And Adding It To Another
Aug 18, 2014
I am trying to figure out a way to pull a date from a table and add it to another table automatically. I'm building a database for a harvest/trucking operation and we want to be to set the date everyday and then it pull that date on all of our tickets, reports, etc. Most days we run till after midnight but we want to still record the date as the day we started so I don't think pulling the date from the computer itself would be a good option.
I have a field that is updated with =Now() now when I try to run a regular query with the criteria being =Date()
I get nothing And the "=" is always disapearing out of the query. I dont know what is going on. I got the field set up in the table section as a date field with short format.
Can somone please tell me what I am doin wrong when I have followed instructions up to this point....
Hello All... I'm very new to Access.. so please forgive my ignorance..
Here is the scenario..
I have a table with two fields named "item" & "description" that contains 10 records total.
I have another table with 100 records with the fields "invoice #","item", "price paid","date paid","time paid". The item fields are linked between the two, and the 100 records contain different invoices for these ten items.
I want to pull the price paid off of the latest invoice, based on the time and date... What is the easiest way to do this?
I have a file of transaction history from the accounting system. All of the payroll cash payments are coded as ZG. Payroll accruals are coded as ZC. I need a sum of payroll accruals by department that have the same date or later than the last payroll cash payment. How do I write that query?
I have an active database that is used to evaluate employee call performance. When building the database (my first full attempt) I did not include a way to sort out employees who are no longer active.
I know I don't want to delete them.
1) Add a termination date to the employee tableHow do I set my form to ignore all employees with a term date? (I currently have a drop down box that allows us to choose the associate from the employee table by using the Row Source)...
What if the employee were to return to the position (has only happened about 5 times in 15 years) would sorting termed employees out of reports be as simple as adding in the criteria of the query something like "is Null" under the term date?
2) Add a radial button to the employee table to show "active"Same question about how to ignore employees that have been unclicked?
3) Add a Z-to the last name of the (employee name) this will drop them to the bottom of the list.What happens to the associated records under the "old" employee name?
I trying to build a usage tracker. Users will take a reading once a week and enter data. I want to open the form and have 2 fields filled in based off the last reading entered into the table. I have an ID field (autonumber) and I tried using that field -1 to populate my other fields but it does not work. any suggestions
I would consider myself a novice to almost intermediate with access.
Anyways what I need to do seems pretty simple. I just need to make a web page that pulls values from a table we have stored on our server. The users WILL NOT need to modify the info, they simple need to view it.
I want it set up so that when users modify the table locally here at our company, people from another site can view the changes on the internet...
I'm querying off of a teradata table in Access. I have the teradata table linked to a table I made in Access which will only pull specific cars(example). How can I make the query pull.. like car* for every record I have in the table?For example..My made table has20120220321Q24Retc...the teradata table shows this201G101201G102201P202203A12021QP131the record means ...the first 3 characters is the car name, the middle two char is the location, and the last 2 is the day of the week.Btw in the query I use in my other querying system it has an option "Begins With" which works, I don't know if acces has this? Can anyone assist me on this? If I am unclear let me know!!
I have created a database to track the paper files that I am accountable for. Every day I get requests from workers for various files. I have split the database so that multiple users can access the db and edit or change the status of files. In the be I have the main db with fields required for the files and I have another database (table 2) with similar fields that i use to generate an email form that workers fill out to request files. Access then automatically pulls that data from the email form and inserts in to table 2. I pull those requested files then enter the data in to table 1 so that I know the who/what/where of a files location. I want to be able to automatically insert info from table 2 into table one after I have pulled the file and checked it out.
I have two tables; one has just variances entered, the other is the total number of events for the month (normal events + variances). The variances become the numerator, and the total events is the denominator.The report does counts of variances based on location, type of variance, etc.This is working just fine, but I also need to show on the report the number of variance/total events (%).
I am struggling with pulling the data for total events into the variance report.The variances all have dates, the totals have start and end dates (monthly). For the variances, my query asks for date range, but I want this same date range to be used for pulling in totals from the other table.I am trying to use DSUM("monthlytotal", "tblTOTALS",Between "StartDate=input start date from report query" And "input end date from report query").Should I setup a form that after the start/end dates are enter, the report is launched using these dates?
Ok, I have 3 tables. One lists a contact in conjunction with the branch of the company and the trips that contact takes. The second lists a contact in conjunction with the branch of the company and which team they work with (may work with many). The third should list their email address and their phone number. Is it possible to pull the contact name and branch of company from tables 1 and 2 into 3 automatically, such that all I have to input into table 3 is additional contact information? If that is possible, is it also possible to only pull each contact/branch of company pairing once (I don't want four entries for Joe Shmoe/Sales, even if he's taken 4 trips)?

Trying to create a simple data entry form to get information and populate fields from another table. i.e. type in info in one field and the other fields are displayed in the form with information from another table.
I have a contributor tracking table that is linked to a form of the same name. I created a make table from a query that calculates the total to date for each contributor (based on their contributor ID in the tracking table). I want to place this sum to date, in read only mode, on each contribution record for each contributor in the tracking table and on each master record in another table with the contact information for each contributor.
The contact table is in the one and the contributor tracking table is the many. If this isn't clear, I can upload the database. I essentially want to link a field from one table to a form with a different table source. The sum to date should only show for the record with a matching contributor ID.
Table 1: Account Number Start Date End Date Cost data** Budget data**
Table 2 (Imported excel file with cost/budget data): Account Number Cost data** Budget data**
Table 1 is the main table that will be viewable in this database. The idea here is that new Account Numbers can be added to Table 1 throughout the year. It then pulls the cost/budget data into Table 1 based on the matching Account Number between table 1 and 2.
So, if the Account Number (Table 1) = Account Number (Table 2) then it pulls the cost/budget data into the cells on that row. I am trying to make this automated since this data is updated weekly and imported into Table 2 from excel.
so i have an interesting question and im hoping that someone can help on this one. i need to pull date from a specific table, no problem, that's written and working fine, next i need to be able to join the data from another table by a primary key, again no problem. third, i need to be able to select the date (using WHERE) for a specific date range. (i.e. i enter the date range of 01/7/2007 to 15/7/2007) and the query comes back only showing the data from that specific time, not the data from before or after. this is where my problem lies, all the entered data is being shown after entering my date range. i am going to include my SQL statement, just so you can actually see what im really talking about.
SELECT srealest.Name0, srealest.Dist1, SREpayments.Face2Pd, SREpayments.Penalty2Pd, SREpayments.[2paid], SREpayments.Face3Pd, SREpayments.Penalty3Pd, SREpayments.[3paid], SREpayments.Face4Pd, SREpayments.Penalty4Pd, SREpayments.[4paid], srealest.Map, srealest.Parcel, srealest.LeaseHold, srealest.TaxRebate1, srealest.TaxFace1, srealest.TaxPenalty1, srealest.TaxYear, srealest.BillNo, srealest.PdRebate1, srealest.PdFace1, srealest.PdPenalty1, srealest.DatePd FROM SREpayments INNER JOIN srealest ON SREpayments.BillNo=srealest.BillNo WHERE (((SREpayments.[2paid]) Between Forms![SD SRE]![Beginning Date] And Forms![SD SRE]![Ending Date]) Or ((SREpayments.[3paid]) Between Forms![SD SRE]![Beginning Date] And Forms![SD SRE]![Ending Date]) Or ((SREpayments.[4paid]) Between Forms![SD SRE]![Beginning Date] And Forms![SD SRE]![Ending Date])) Or (((srealest.DatePd) Between Forms![SD SRE]![Beginning Date] And Forms![SD SRE]![Ending Date])) ORDER BY srealest.Name0;
any thoughts or ideas on how to accomplish this would be greatly appreciated!

Is there a way to easy add one field to the other to: Give end date i.e. do I need to write the code to validate all dates which bring the date over a month e.g. start date 29/sep/2007 and number of days 5.
i have 2 tables.. 1 with bookings and 1 with a BonusPeriod range.
in the Bookings table there is a field called [ServiceDate]
in the bonus table i have a field called [Period] which is text i also have 2 dates, [StartDate] And [EndDate] i need to Dlookup the Bonus table to return the value of the period table based on where the [ServiceDate] falls.
i dont want to use VBA (i really need it to work within a query that inserts it's data into another table)
i've tried everything but had no joy
Expr1: DLookUp("[Period]","BonusPeriods","[ServiceDate]" Between "#[StartDate]#" And "#[EndDate]#")
Expr1: DLookUp("[Period]","BonusPeriods","[Staff_BookingsAndQuotes_Master].[ServiceDate]" Between "#[StartDate]#" And "#[EndDate]#")
Expr1: DLookUp("[Period]","BonusPeriods","(FormatDateTime([ServiceDate]),"yyyy-mm-dd") Between (FormatDateTime([BonusPeriods]![StartDate]),"yyyy-mm-dd") and (FormatDateTime([BonusPeriods]![EndDate],"yyyy-mm-dd"))))
I'm an Access novice! I have a table with a library loan date field defaulting with today's date and a due back field. I want the due back field to show a date 3 weekdays after the loan date. I've tried using DateAdd("w",3,Date()) but this just adds 3 days, not weekdays. Does anyone know how do I get it to skip weekends? If I need to use VBA, please supply instructions for including the code, as well as the code itself. :confused:
Private sub Customer_AfterUpdate() [ContractStart] = Date End Sub
When i update the customer field i receive the error : "Run-time error 2465 - Microsoft Office Access can't find the field 'Date' referred to in your expression"
Any ideas? I have tried changing [ContractStart] to ContractStart and Me.ContractStart and the same happens?!
I am trying to add a certain number of days onto a date field to create a due date within a Table but can't work out how to do it. I know that to add days on I can use the function DateAdd but the only way I can see how to do this is to create and update query to run and add the date on. Is there anyway that I can set the field to automatically update the due date dependent on the priority of the record e.g. immediate (1 day) standard (3 days) and request (28 Days)?
Help...I am new to Access and am trying to get a query completed to run a query on contract end dates. My goal is to be able to run the query on a date such as 10/2007 and have it pull all contract end dates that would term for the month of October, 2007. I have been pulling my hair out trying to build expressions and sifting through my access books to no avail.
Hi Apologies first if there is an easy answer to this post as I'm new to Access.
I have a notes box on a form that users update with the latest progress of work done. At the end of each progress I would like Access to automatically add the date, time and user's network id so that I can track who did what and when.
Hi All, I am not sure where to go with this. I have tables Employee, Audio, evaluate. My main form opens with recordsource = Employee. SubformA is tblAudio linked via empID. I have subformB that is tblEvaluate linked via EmpID.
SubformA is set as contineous form, so there may be 1-?? records per that Employee. I have a command button on subformA next to each record. What I would like to do is: when clicking on the command buton of that record copy some of the fields (of that record only) over to subformB appending or editing tblEvaluate.
I have tried to search through the postings but no luck on anyone discussing what I am trying to do.
Is there a function in Access that will allow you to add business days to a date? I want to pull a date with a query and then add 5 business days to it to display in a report. Anyone know if this is possible?
