I came up with the following string to do this but I keep getting an error...
Next_months_Birthday: DateSerial(Year(Date())+IIf(Format(Date()),"mmdd") >Format([Month],"00") & Format([Day],"00"),1,0),[Month],[Day])
The error I get is ....The expression you entered contains invalid syntax, or you need to enclose your text data in quotes.
I attached a screen shot ....
I have a table which has a column 'Date', which contains dates in the format dd/mm/yy. I wish to produce a quiery which will produce an extra column entitled 'month', which will match each date to the month of that date. I know there is a formula which does this (called 'month' i think), but i dont know how to use it to achieve what I want.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Hey all, I have a form that has two textboxes, one box is for month and the other is for the year. After I enter the month and year I want, I click on a command button that previews a report. Well, the report is not giving me the information for that particular month and year, actually it gives me nothing.
The report gets its information from a query. In that queries criteria field is the below expression that I have.
Like [forms]![frmPEL]![cboMonth] & "/*/" & Right([forms]![frmPEL]![txtYear],2)
Can anyone see anything wrong with this? I should be able to enter the month and year and click on the report button I want and preview that report, but no joy.
Your help is greatly appreciated.

I have used the following function to return the date of the previous Sunday in a text box when I open a form..
=Date()-Weekday(Date()-1)
In a different text box I would like return the pevious month based on the date in the text box.
For example the above function would return date 20/08/06. I would like to display JUL-06 in the second text box. Can anybody help?
I would like a query to return dates based upon the input of just the day and month. At the moment I have a parameter query which asks for 'start date' and 'end date' and this works fine, but I want the query to return all the records for all the years in the database and not just the current one (date format is dd/mm/yy)
So if I type <start date> 01/01 and <end date> 02/01 the query will return:
01/01/04
01/01/05
01/01/06
02/01/04
02/01/05
02/01/06
Does anyone know a solution - I have been searching all afternoon!!??
I'm trying to make a query to return payroll data, but I'm not sure how to get Access to return 0 where data doesn't exist for a particular month.
For example, imagine this table:
Name MonthHours
John 1 160
John 2 160
Dave 1 160
Dave 2 160
Matt 1 160
How would I get this ouput:
Name MonthHours
John 1 160
John 2 160
Dave 1 160
Dave 2 160
Matt 1 160
Matt 2 0
I have an appointment database with, of course a Date field.I would like to be able to filter the records to show appointments for a particular month.I want to see what appointments I have for September, for example.Ideally I would like to populate a combo box with month names and filter the form based on the month selected.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a query that selects usage records from a table where a data field falls within a rolling 12-month period that ends on a month and year selected by the user on a form.
PARAMETERS [Forms]![frmReport]![cboMonth] Short, [Forms]![frmReport]![txtYear] Long;
SELECT UsageID, dtUsage, dblUsage
FROM tblUsage
WHERE (((DateDiff("m",[dtUsage],DateSerial([Forms]![frmReport]![txtYear],[Forms]![frmReport]![cboMonth],1))) Between 0 And 11));
I also have a query that pulls data between two dates that the user specifies using two textboxes on a form.
SELECT UsageID, dtUsage, dblUsage
FROM tblUsage
WHERE (((tblUsage.dtUsage) Between [Forms]![frmReport]![txtStartDate] And [Forms]![frmReport]![txtEndDate]));
On the form I have an Option Group control that sets the visible properties of the 4 controls;
12-Month Rolling
cboMonth - Month Combobox
txtYear - User entered year
Date Range
txtStartDate - User entered Start Date
txtEndDate - User entered End Date
What I was planning on doing was adding two new textboxes (txtQryStart & txtQryEnd) and depending on what option is selected, change the dates accordingly
blnDateRange = (Me.optDate = 1)
blnMonth = (Me.optDate = 2)
If blnDateRange Then
Me.txtQryStart = Me.txtStartDate
Me.txtQryEnd = Me.txtEndDate
End If
If blnMonth Then
If Me.cboMonth = 12 Then
EndMonth = 1
EndYear = Me.txtYear + 1
StartMonth = EndMonth
StartYear = Me.txtYear
Else
EndMonth = Me.cboMonth + 1
EndYear = Me.txtYear
StartMonth = EndMonth + 1
StartYear = Me.txtYear - 1
End If
Me.txtQryStart = DateSerial(StartYear, StartMonth, 1) - 1
Me.txtQryEnd = DateSerial(EndYear, EndMonth, 1)
End If
Now I can use one query to accomplish both types of query;
SELECT UsageID, dtUsage, dblUsage
FROM tblUsage
WHERE (((tblUsage.dtUsage) Between [Forms]![frmReport]![txtQryStart] And [Forms]![frmReport]![txtQryEnd]));
This approach works. It saves me from having to duplicate the queries and some future headache if anything needs to be changed in the queries.
What I was wondering is there an better/simpler way to do this?
:confused:
I cannot get my query to return result when I enter the month of "June" as search criteria. June is listed in the table and query, every other month is returned except June.
I have attached two example for your reference.
I have a simple UDF that takes a string and returns a variant, which is an array of strings Example Input "Brick Wall" Return value would be a variant array with first element "Brick" and and second element "Wall" Now I have a table with a field of strings, and I want to make a query that returns all the results from the function, one per line.
So if my input table looks like this
[strField]
"kick the ball"
"return the pass"
my query result should looks like this
[Orig] [new]
"kick the ball" "kick"
"kick the ball" "the"
"kick the ball" "ball"
"return the pass" "return"
"return the pass" "the"
"return the pass" "pass"
Last time I had to do something like this I used VBA exclusively, with ADO objects, but I thought a query based solution would be easier.
With my current data the largest return array size my function returns is 27 elements but I wouldn't want to rely on that number being fixed.
I have a query that extracts the month and day of a bowlers birthday for a selected week and year (Done from a form).
The query below works fine until the end of the year when the ScheduleDate crossover to a new year. At that point the query wants to include all of the bowlers birthdays even though I'm only trying to get the month/Day Between 12/31/07 and 01/06/08.
What am i doing wrong?
Hope I'm clear enough!
SELECT tblBowlers.FirstName, tblBowlers.LastName, tblBowlers.BirthDay, Format(DateDiff("yyyy",[BirthDay],[ScheduleDate]),"#") AS BowlerAge, tblSchedules.SeasonID, tblSeasons.Quit
FROM tblSchedules, tblTeams INNER JOIN (tblBowlers INNER JOIN tblSeasons ON tblBowlers.BowlerID = tblSeasons.BowlerID) ON tblTeams.TeamID = tblSeasons.TeamID
GROUP BY tblBowlers.FirstName, tblBowlers.LastName, tblBowlers.BirthDay, tblSchedules.SeasonID, tblSeasons.Quit, tblSchedules.ScheduleDate, tblSchedules.WeekNo
HAVING (((tblBowlers.FirstName)<>"DUMMY") AND ((tblBowlers.LastName)<>"DUMMY") AND ((tblSchedules.SeasonID)=[Forms]![frmYearSelect].[SeasonYearID]) AND ((tblSeasons.Quit)=False) AND ((tblSchedules.WeekNo)=[Forms]![frmWeekSelectExcel].[txtNextWeek]) AND ((Format([BirthDay],"mm/dd")) Between Format([ScheduleDate]-2,"mm/dd") And Format([ScheduleDate]+4,"mm/dd")));
I am trying to create a database that will keep track of the orders placed for a given part number by month. Currently, my table houses the part number, and the ordered amount for the past three years by month (there are thirty-five columns for every part). My column headings are ORDER_MAY_2013, etc. I would like to set a query up that will look at the column headings and pull the amounts ordered for each part for the past twelve months. In other words, I have three years of data in my table. In my query, I just want one year. However, I don't want to have to rewrite the query every month so that it will pick up the new data. Is there a way to accomplish this?
Is there a better way to build this database? I thought about just have four columns in my table - PART_NUMBER, ORDER_MONTH, ORDER_YEAR, ORDER_AMOUNT. The only problem there, is that every part (there are about 450 parts) would have to be listed 35+ times. That seemed too redundant to me, so I built the table this way. However, now I am having trouble querying against it.
The title tells it all really. I need a way to take a list of records with the field D.o.B in short format e.g. 12/10/1990 and be able to find out who's birthday it will be in the next week. I cant find a way to take the date of birth and search it to find, say the week starting 11/10 and get the dates the next week (so up to 18/10) because of the date of birth not being the current date.
sorry I'm not good at explaining things :o . I'm trying to say getting 12/10/2005 as the date of birth would be no problem as it would fall into the week choosen but 12/10/1990 is not the right year so doesnt appear but I want it to. so I need it to only search for the 12/10 part not the year so I can get the birthdays but I dont know how to achieve this. I'm not sure its possible but I'll probably be told its quite easy.
Typically I want the query to ask the start date of the week that the user enters, and it will find all birthdays from that date to the date 7 days on. although asking for the start date and then what date do I want to stop searching for birthdays (i.e. 'enter first date: 12/10' and 'enter second date: 30/12' then find the birthdays inbetween the dates) would probably be more practical and flexible for future use. I'm not paticularly good with ms access and although looking and searching I cant see a way to achieve this but I cant believe its not possible so any help would be appreciated very much. thanks in advanced if you help me out at all
thanks for reading
So I found this video (youtube.com/watch?v=FTjyuSTcTII&spfreload=10) and followed it to do a query for all upcoming birthdays. The video shows how to do it for the next two months and I tried to modify it just for the next 7 days. When I tried to run it, I got "Date type mismatch in criteria expression" error. I tried putting it back in the criteria she had, but still got the same thing.
At 6:53 you can find the code she used for the first table (basically asking when their next birthday is) and at 9:57 is the code for the criteria. Below is my modification.
Between Date() And DateAdd("d",7,Date())

I have a MS access table with 12 numerical columns for 12 Months payments for our customer base.
I need to calculate variance of payments month on month and identify set of customers who have made huge payments.
I have a table full of dates of meetings through out the year...
Example
tMeetingDates
16th August 2005
18th September 2005
19th October 2005
23rd November
-----
i also have a report that i print out each month that has the date of the meeting on it... i currently edit the date manually.
I was wondering if there was a way to automate this facility, so that the report looked to the table of dates and looked for the current Months Date that is stored i the table.
i then want this date to be displayed in the Report.
So in this instance if i am running a report for tomorrows meeting being the 19th October it would display that date in the report....regardless of when i run the report...
Obviously if i run the report on the first of November because the month has changed it would then display the date of the November Meeting...
we only ever have one meeting a month!!!!
Please help

Using Access 2010..I have form with a date on it. For this control I have show date picker set to "For dates" and lo and behold I get calendar! I can scroll through this calendar month by month. Great if I just want to go back or forward a month or three. What I'd like to be able to do is scroll through the calendar year by year. Can I do this with the method I'm using at the moment? If not is there a way round it that isn't over complicated?

Each record in my table has six possible sale dates as a result of cancellations. My problem results when a record is sold twice during the queried time frame (SaleDate1 and SaleDate2). Currently my query uses an if statement and if they are in the same time period, it will only return SaleDate1. I would like to see the record returned twice (once for SaleDate1 and once for SaleDate2). Any suggestions?

Hello all,
Is there a SQL function in Access that will allow it to return (as a field value) the name of the table where a particular record was found?
The reason that I want to do this is because I have a single table (Table A) with building address records counted and broken down by state and by month - but some of the records belong to smaller groups (e.g. Zone 1, Zone 2, etc.) that aren't states, but that I want to count in the crosstab as if they were. There are building addresses on Table A that belong to each of these four groups, so I need to somehow match the records on Table A with the appropriate Zone, and place the name of that Zone in the "State" column of the query results instead of the actual state so that I can then count the results in the same crosstab.
I had the intention of resolving this by creating three tables (with the listings of address information for each Zone #), then matching records in Table A to each Zone table in a query by the address field to get each record's appropriate Zone no.(if available), then using the results of this query in my crosstab - :confused: but I can't figure out how to get Access to create a calculated field that lists from which table a resulting query record came from, so I can't continue.:confused:
Any suggestions, if able, would be appreciated!
