I have set up an Attendance database at work, where a record is created for each member of staff when they are absent. The tables are set up as follows:
What I want to be able to do is set up a query to search for a reason for absence on a certain date (btw my date format is set at dd/mm/yyyy). The problem I have is if the user needs to check a date in between the start and end date i.e. Start Date is 11/11/2005 end date is 11/12/2005 and the user checks on 01/12/2005 then this record will be found.
I know there is a simple way to do this but I can't seem to figure it out. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I am trying to run a change an existing query in real time to allow date filtering for 4 different categories. I can get two of them to work. Calibration Date and Icepoint Date. But for The two calculated fields Calibration due date and Icepoint date I cannot get it to filter properly e.g. for 2013 dates it also includes 2014 dates and just does not work properly. I am thinking its due to it being a calculated field but don't have a clue how to fix it. see pasted code for calibration due date filter where Todate and Fromdate are the 2 dates used. I also have the on current code and the exit code to reset the query to its original status.
Public Sub SetDate1() 'Apply date filter and rebuild query in real time On Error GoTo Err_SetDate1 If IsNull(Me!ToDate) And IsNull(Me!FromDate) Then MsgBox ("Please Enter Date First"), vbExclamation GoTo Exit_SetDate1
I have a "status update" subform on a form that the user can go in and put periodic updates for that record. I have one field on the subform called UpdateStatus that I want it to get its value from the current value on the main form (which changes periodically) called SDPPhase so that you can see the status at the time of the update and have a history.
I am trying to do this using DLookup with the following code in the UpdateStatus field: =DLookUp("SDPPhase","BRD","BRD_Id = " & [BRD Id])
BRD is the main form's table and BRD_Id is on both forms and what links the subform.
The problem I am having is that although when I step through it...it picks up the correct BRD Id, the output is ALWAYS the value for the very first record in the BRD table...not the one for the BRD_Id on the current form.
I also tried putting the code in the form properties for the subform but that doesn't work either. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!
I have a subform that has the Expense Code from the Expense Codes Table and I want to look up the Description (yes I know its not correctly spelled in the formula but it is in the table)
I am new to Access (using Access 2012) and All I am trying to achieve is to autofill the field [Frequency] from Table FullList based on the value of [Frequency] from Table Courses using a DLookup code used to update the FullList form. The code is not updating anything! It is frustrating! Frequency is a number (integer) and while Course is a text. The figures of my Access database are below.
I am trying to Dlookup two fields with dates in them. If the Dlookup returns that today is in the range (e.g. 06-03-2015 in the first field and 10-03-2015 in the second) then i want the system to display a messagebox when im opening up a form. If today is not in the range then the messagebox should not pop up.
Code: If DLookup("HollidayFrom", "tblBuildingManager", "[HollidayFrom] >= Date()") And DLookup("HollidayTill", "tblBuildingManager", "[HollidayTill] <= Date()") Then msgBox "A building manager is on holliday" end if
I am trying to return a single value from a table and assign it to a string to be used later but Dlookup isnt working at all. below is the code im using and the error message im recieving is "wrong number of arguements or invalid property assignment"
Code: Sub boo() Dim result As Integer result = dlookup("Definition", "Config", "Parameter = 'Mail Folder'") End Sub
I am trying to work out how to find the difference between two dates, in years and days. I have a [date_of_birth] field and another field [date] and wish to work out the difference in years and days as opposed to decimal years. Is it possible to do it?
I have a query built by someone else that I think is the root of my problem. The query runs and selects Officers of an Insurance Company based on the dates in a table stating when they were officers. The problem is one of the date (enddate) is blank since he/she may be a current officer. The query reads ">[RPT_NAIC_AF1]![BeginDate] And <=[RPT_NAIC_AF1]![EndDate]" It is not returning all records after the start date which has no enddate. If I change the "And" to an "Or" I get the records I want, and a lot more so I know the problem lies here. Help please! I am a novice user but willing to learn.
I have a situation where I need to extract the date from a text field to use in a select query. The date in the text field is listed at the beginning of the text field like this.
S12345678 3/21/2008 adittional text beyond here blah, blah...
the first series of numbers can be either 9 or 10 digits long, and then the date is always in this format, the length of the characters change accordingly with the date. So trying to use the Mid function only wont work.
I supposed I need to find a way to get the position of the space character in front of and after the date to use the Mid function for each record.
I need to be able to extract this date to do a DateDiff against another date.
I would like to count the number of working days between two dates, NOT the calendar days, if the workers only work Monday thru Thursday. I know we could use the DateDiff function, but HOW do I count excluding Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays?
I am trying to carryout working days between two dates (Excluding weekends Friday & Saturday) but unable to fix it correctly, However i did search a lot over internet also about built in function but all is showing i have to add it module or macro etc.So, i select the module for Access 2010 but also not finish with function.Table name is "LeaveSettlement" and column name is "Total_Wdays", what field type i have to select for result column.
Public Function LeaveSettlement(ByRef Leave_Start As Date, _ ByRef Leave_End As Date _ ) As Integer ' Returns the number of weekdays in the period from Leave_Start ' to Leave_End inclusive. Returns -1 if an error occurs. ' If your weekend days do not include Saturday and Friday and ' do not total two per week in number, this function will ' require modification.
The below function returns correct time difference between workdays. However, it is excluding Saturday as per the code.
It is calculating 06:30 am to 22:00 pm time for weekdays but I also want it to calculate the time from 10:00 to 13:30 on a Saturday.
I am trying to use the NetworkMinutes function to achieve this. However, there is a problem getting the time for Saturday.
Code: Option Compare Database Option Explicit '--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ' Procedure : NetWorkMinutes ' Author : Rod ' Date : 13/12/2012 ' Purpose : Returns the number of work minutes between two date-time arguments.
I have searched the forum for this answer but no luck. :(
I'm trying to calculate the amount of WORKING time between two dates in an Access database. At the moment i am just subtracting one date from another but this gives me all of the time in between including weekends and evenings.
I need this time to be calculated in hours.
In Excel i know there is a NETWORKINGDAYS function which does something similar but with days rather than hours.
At least if i could get the working days i could then convert it into hours.
Any ideas on calculating future dates based on # of working hours. For example... If a task is suppossed to be completed in 32 business hours, when would that be? Considerations include standard working hours M-F, no working hours on weekend. I have to believe that someone has written this before and I don't need to reinvent the wheel. ANy help is much appreciated!
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?
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
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
