hello once again,
i'm trying to generate a report based on a query i'm attempting to create right now. I have a field in my table that is a timestamp. The problem is that the timestamp is "text" and the timestamp is not only the date, but also the time. how could i view all the records for today? i'm thinking regular expression or something similar to that effect, but i don't have any clue how to do something like that. I was able to say "between" [string value] and [string value]. that worked, but i want the report to be autogenerated. i don't want to have to type in the day's date everyday. any ideas?

What is the best way to determine start and end of a day? I am trying to pull all records that are time stamped with today's date and time. I tried >now()-1 but because hours are involved I end up with records from yesterday as well. I need to pull EVERYTHING that has today's date and time.
I need to find records for the day before after 5 pm and today before 8 AM,
I'm using access 2010, the field type is a timestamp, (mm/dd/yyyy hh:nn:ss)
I'm doing it manually using date()-1 and date(), then eliminating the records before the day before that we received before 5 pm and eliminating the records we received after 8 AM.
I have a form that people have to fill in to report when someone is off sick.
The first notification they have is that the person is off sick - so they can only enter a start date on the form, and have to leave the end date blank
I want the end date to always be "today" - and to automatically update to "today" until an end date is entered by the user. To enter the end date, the user will go back to the original record where they put the start date in, and then enter the end date.
Any ideas... using date () will put today's date in, but then when I go in tomorrow, it will say yesterday's date...
Hello. I want to create a query that will return all records that were entered from today to 7 days ago. I have a DateEntered field on my table that stores the date information and I have been playing around with what I entered in the criteria there, but nothing seems to be working. I was trying to use the DateAdd function but with negative numbers, but I am doing something wrong.
Thank you in advance to any assistance that could be provided. :)
Query which I want to create about finding the date of birth of the customer.
I explain:
I have a table (tblCustomers) which among others contains the field "DateOfBirth". I would like to create a query so that looking into tblCustomer about the dates where the month and day of birth of the client is the same as the Date () so that I know every day which customers have birthdays.
First of all I'm not very good with VB. What I'm trying to do is get all my customers email addresses in one text string. So it would go like 123@aol.com; bob@yahoo.com; fred@hotmail.com; and etc. My customer could then copy it and paste it in her TO: box of her email server. Any help would be great.
I am trying to write some code to search for similar strings. I am creating a database with records that all contain street addresses. These addresses may have more than one record attached to it, and we would like for folders to be created containing the records with similar street addresses. Problem is, all the existing records are from an excel spreadsheet that did not contain any data validation, so there are several instances of:
123 Street 123 st 123 street job 1 123 st job 2 etc....
So I am trying to write code to prevent this from happening in the future, by searching the database for a similar street address and asking the user if this is the address they are trying to enter. I have been trying to do this with the DLookUp function, as such:
Private Sub ProjectName_AfterUpdate() Dim stLink, pName As String pName = Me.ProjectName stLink = DLookup("[ProjectName]", "tblMaster", "[ProjectName] LIKE '" & pName & "%'") If IsNull(stLink) Or stLink = "" Then
[Code] ....
I have worded the stLink line different ways, and have used (*) instead of (%) but nothing is working. The CODE is working, as in no errors, but it is not finding a similar project that I know is present.
I'm having problems with quotation marks in a sql statement. The string is an array separated by a semicolon.
120/80;70;5'6";125
this string represents patient vitals. I'm using the string to update a record. But I get hung up with the quotation mark.
I've tried: 120/80;70;5''6'"';125 which is a enclosing the quotation mark with apostrophies, but this does not seem to work. The sql still gets hung up. My sql statment looks something like:
original string: 120/80;70;5'6";125
strPreOpVits = "120/80;70;5''6'"';125"
mysql = "UPDATE mytable SET PreOpVits = '" & strPreOpVits & "' " & _ "WHERE nID = " & myRecID
docmd.runsql mysql
I've narrowed it down to the quotation marks and I'm unsure how to handle these. I get a runtime 3075 - Syntax Error.
Here is the code that I use to convert the original string
Public Function FixQuotesInSql(strToFix As String) Dim lgth, y As Long Dim strTemp, char2Add As Variant 'This routine fixes the use of apostrophe and quotation marks in an SQL sequence 'If the apostrophe is at the beginning or end of the string it replaces with 3 x "'" or "'''" 'If in the middle of the string then replaces with 2 x "'" or "''"
Hi All I need to be able to do a count before and after the current date. My table has fields named month and year and I need to find the count before and after the current month. Any help would be much appreciated. ChrisD
Hi I have a form that I use to capture information. The "DateReceived" field prefills with todays date. I also have a "DateResolved" field that I would like to prefill with the current date, however that date would be different from the Date Received date. The reason for this is because user logs information then goes back into the form and closes the case by entering a Date Resolved. Thank you
I have an unbound text box. I would like to use the Iif function so that if someon'e preferred address is B (business) It returns the field [BUS JOB TITLE] and if it isn't B it returns [BUS JOB TITLE] and then [BUS EMPLOYER] on the next line. I tried this: =IIf(([PREF TYP]="B"),[BUS JOB TITLE],([BUS JOB TITLE] & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & [BUS EMPLOYER]))
And it's returning "#ERROR". Help! I need to finish this today for a big meeting. Thanks!
This is probably an easy criteria but I'm getting close to COB and I have to have it in today.
I have a DOB as (DD Mon YY 04 Jul 79) in which I need to create a column for thier age. Then I have to show all the people who are over 60 years old. I can't even get thier age to show correct. Any help. Thanks
I have a query that is pulling data from a table containing a Tamestamp field. I want to set the query to pull my data but don't include anything that was logged in TODAY. How can I set this in my criteria?
I need to finish the Asset Management System I have been creating today.
The main Asset Form works fine for Data Entry. However when I view existing records, the Model of the Asset (I.T Equipment) appears blank.
The reason for this is: I have three tables linked in the following way: Manufacturer > Model Group > Model
When an Asset is recorded in the DB, the user must select a Model. To minimise duplicating data I decided to only store the Model ID in the Asset Table. This way, if I need to view the Manufacturer and Model Group, I can just do a reverse lookup based on the Model ID.
Problem: The Manufacturer and Model Group are unbound combos. The Model is a bound combo filtered by the Model Group filtered by Manufacturer (aka Cascading Combos).
However, as I am not storing the values for Manufacturer and Model Group in my Asset Table, when viewing existing records, all combo boxes are blank.
Has anyone got a solution to this problem. I downloaded an example by Pat Hartman that requeries the filtered combo on the forms current event. However in that example the main combo was stored in the underlying table.
Any suggestions. Would really like to knock this one on the head today.
Hi i know it is simple but can someone tell me how to work out an age of someone using their date of birth and the date now please. thanks i cannot remember the formula.
Here's my problem. I need to generate a report that says how much of each individual product was produced and as well as the total produced for a specified category in a time period. Something like the following:
I currently have a query that queries a database and pulls out all products that were produced in a specified period and the categories they belong to and dump them into a local access table. Now what I need to do is search through the query results and count up how many of each product were produced (02 AA, 01 AB, etc...) and the totals for each category. The number of categories is pretty limited (6), but there are hundreds of product codes, so I need a way to do this without having to type in each induvidual product code as the requirement by which the query searches. Also, the product codes that get returned are different every day.
I was thinking something along the lines of take the product code of the first row and check for any others in the results that match and write that into another table. Then move onto row 2 and use its product code as a search parameter and search through the query results for any matches. Then continue that until the end of the query results. Can I do that? Is there a better way to achieve what I need?
