I have text field that is storing both dates, and "N/A."
I'm trying to to get only records that match this format "mm/dd/yyyy" or "xx/xx/xxxx"
Are there any format functions for query criteria, like must match this format "__/__/____" ?
I know I can just use "<> "N/A"" however I want "<> "N/A" AND Format = "__/__/____"

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have encountered an issue when I was inserting a string (with newlines about 176 characters) into access table. This field in access has the data type TEXT and it was truncated after the insertion. It is strange because I have three other fields with the same format and no truncation at all. May I know what could be the reason and how/what is the recommend data type for storing long text?

=DLookUp("DateOrdered","tDateOrdered","PrNumber=" & [PrNumber]) ----- (DateOrdered is short date, PrNumber is text, db is split Access 2013)
Whats missing in this expression? I've tried every criteria variant I could find but to no avail.
I have a Table Named "Combined List 05/06/03" Within this table there is a Field named "Scheduled Date" which has dates but the field was created as a Text Field. How do I go about changing this field to a date field. I have approx 95,000 records in this table.

Thanks! :o)
I have a table which list a load of items, one field is date and one field is time.I have a form with two date boxes and two time boxes, the idea is for the user to search between the two inputted dates and the two inputted times.This then runs a query for a report to be produced. The problem I having is getting the query to runs both criteria it returns nothing.here is the Where part of the current SQL.
WHERE (((tblIncident.IncDate) Between [Forms]![FRM_SearchMulti]![txtrepdate]
And [Forms]![FRM_SearchMulti]![TxtrepDateB]) AND ((tblIncident.IncTime) Between [Forms]![FRM_SearchMulti]![txtreptimea]
And [Forms]![FRM_SearchMulti]![txtreptimeb]))ORDER BY tblIncident.IncDate, tblIncident.IncTime;
I am trying to create a parameter query to return dates that have 2 years remaining.
For example I have dates for when mortgages expire, and I want to recognise the dates that have two years remaining using a parameter query but I can't figure out if I use DateAdd or DateDiff.

I have a table with an auto number primary key field, and then several other fields, Address, Unit, Owner. I created a form with a combo box that looks up the Address from another table and populates the three fields when you click a record. I have it set to store the first value, (Address) in the table.
When I open the table, it appears as the primary key number, and not the address. It's very frustrating, as this happens a lot to me. What am I doing wrong? and how can I store the value I want, (Address) and not the primary key number?
I have 3 values in unbound text boxes and a 4th text box that is calculating the sum of the first three text boxes, i need the result of the calculation to be stored in the field "Total Cost" that is also on this form.
Any ideas
Cheers Mikk
How does one store the value derived from a combo box to another text box in a form?E.g. Supplier name is a combo box. The combo box has 2 columns, supplier and supplier ID.the supplier name stores the supplier in its own text box.When you select the supplier, the supplierID appears in another text box.I need to store this supplier ID.The control source is =[suppliername].[column](1) When I look up the table, the supplier is captured in the supplier name but the supplierID is not captured in the supplier ID field.
View 14 Replies View RelatedHi, How can I make the data in a textbox on my form automatically entered as the search criteria in a query. So say the box says Mike Johnson, can I make a command button (That I can eventually subsititute as the actual box) that puts the Nma emIk Johnson into a search query and brings up all the information on him from the database?
View 4 Replies View RelatedHi All,
I've been developing the code below but when the length of .lstAnswers is longer than 128 it doesn't delete the question.
Is there a reason under queries or SQL this should happen? I'm hoping that i'm just thick and there's an easy answer but nothing seems to work.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Private Sub cmdRemoveAnswer_Click()
Dim Answers_SQL As String
Answers_SQL = "DELETE tblOptions.* " & _
"FROM tblOptions " & _
"WHERE (((tblOptions.strAnswer)=[Forms]![frmQuestionWizard]![lstAnswers]) AND ((tblOptions.strQuestion)=[Forms]![frmQuestionWizard]![lstQuestion])) OR (((tblOptions.strAnswer) Is Null))"

I have form that will pop up to run a report, and allow the user to select a state for that report.
There is a combo box which you can select a state, then based on what state it is, it puts a criteria value into an unbound text box on the form.
The query has this set as the criteria:
[Forms]![frmStateSelection].[txtStateFilter].[Value]
I have also tried just:
[Forms]![frmStateSelection].[txtStateFilter]
The value of the text box is:
Like '5???????'
When the query is run, it returns 0 results. However, if I put in Like '5???????' as the criteria in the query itself, it runs properly.
I tried closing the form and running the query so that it asks me for a value since it can't find that textbox since the form is closed. I pasted in Like '5???????' and it returns 0 results.
I have used this method for entering start and end dates for reports before and it has worked just fine. I can't figure out why it isn't working here. Any thoughts?
Simple question but I've been stuck for a looong time.
So what I want to do:
1. enter a value into a text box (Home_Tel) in a form (frmStudentClass)
2. which runs a query (qryNameTel)
3. and return the results to a combo box (Student_Name) on the same form.
The same Home_Tel may have several Student_Name results.
-I have entered
[Forms]![frmStudentClass]![Home Tel]
for the criteria in the query
- However I can't get the results to turn up on the combo box
- I have the following:
Private Sub Home_Tel_AfterUpdate()
' run query
DoCmd.OpenQuery "qryNameTel"
Me.Student_Name.Requery
End Sub
Any ideas?
Or is there an easier way to tackle the problem?
Home_Tel and Student_Name are from the same tables.
I have created a query just for Home_Tel and Student_Name
Thanks everyone!
I'm trying set the query criteria from a textbox on a form. It's a Status field in the query. 1 = Open, 2 = Closed. If I set the criteria to "1" it shows all open, "2" and it shows all closed and "1" or "2" it shows all. The problem I'm having is setting these in the form. I've set the query to pull the value from the form. I can get the Open or Closed to work but not the All. My textbox shows exactly how the criteria should read "1" or "2" but doesn't show any results.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've got a continuous form based on a query.Each of the fields have a search box below it (in the footer) which should ideally filter the query.I'm starting with the FirstName field.In the form's query, I've set the criteria to the following for the FirstName field:
Code:
Like "*" & [Forms]![frmStudentDetails]![txtSearchFirstName] & "*"
frmStudentDetails is the form name.
txtSearchFirstName is the search box's name (in the footer).
The AfterUpdate event for txtSearchFirstName is:
Code:
Me.Requery
But, it doesn't work; when I switch to form view, it displays an error. The Microsoft Access database engine does not recognize '[Forms]![frmStudent Details]![txtSearchFirstName]' as a valid field name or expression.
I sure am having difficulty with this. I'm trying to have the criteria in my form refer to a text box within one of my forms which is the text as I would write it myself within the query design view.
Query's [DEST_ZIP5] criteria = [Forms]![Mainswitchboard]![QueryWizard].[form]![calcDestZip5]
[calcDestZip5]'s value in QueryWizard form = "55422" OR "55343"
Basically, I just want to be able to enter the text string within a form instead of within the query. Sure this can be done!
Oh, and for what it's worth...
If, [calcDestZip5]'s value in QueryWizard form = "55422"
Then the query runs just fine. It's as if the query doesn't want to accept multiple criteria from another source.
TIA
I have a totals query that provides an avg for each month. i'd like to be able to use a text box control (named "Date") on a form (named "Report Runner") to show only a certain month and it's avg.
I tried using this as criteria on the "MonthGroupPMC" field:
Code:
Format([Forms]![Report Runner]![Date], "yyyy-mm")
but the results came up blank.
how can i filter the results of this query to show only one month, specified by the [Forms]![Report Runner]![Date] control?
Am not getting a value from a form text box when using in the criteria line in my query. Am referencing like [Forms]![FormName]![FormLabelName]. If I copy the data in the form and paste it into the query, it works fine, but if I just reference the form, I get no results.
View 13 Replies View RelatedHi,
I know it breaks all the rules to store a calculated field on a table, but I've painted myself into a corner with the way I built this particular database, not good, I have repeating groups and basically the whole database is built this way. I need one form to store a calculated value on a table to solve a problem on a report that encapsulates the total of all the repeating groups. Before you start the lecture, I know I messed up, but this is way to far down the road to start over. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am currently in the process of creating an Employee Database. I have a 'staff information' table with several fields, one of which is a 'contracted hours field'. I have a spreadsheet linked to this database and therefore require this field to be formatted correctly in hours and minutes. For example...I wish to store a decimal time of 37.5 as 37:30.
View 1 Replies View Relatedok.. i am storing CD info in a database, including track lengths, these are obviously in minutes and seconds.. I cant use short time because that is hours and minutes, which means any track longer than 24 minutes doesnt work.. i cant simply use text with an input mask because i want to be able to calculate the total length of the CD by adding the track lengths together.. if i use Long Time it also shows hours, which will confuse the user, and create more scope for errors.. any suggestions? I hope I am making sense here.. thanks for any suggestions :D

I have been struggling with this and would appreciate any help. It sounds so simple!!! I have 4 fields (Unit Price 1, Unit Price 2, Unit Price 3, Unit Price 4) in a Orders table that I want to add together and store in a 5th field (Sub Total) in the same table using a form. I am having problems with the sum and I am unsure how to get it to show in the Sub Total box in the form as well as the table. Thanks for your help!!
