I want to calculate total hours and mins by adding a load of times (in time format) on a report. I've got the total number of minutes and converted this to hours : [txtmins]/60
Now I want to get the remaining minutes by using : [totalmins] - ([totalhours]*60)
However, how do I round DOWN the [totalhours] before it goes into the above sum. I can round it, but it always seems to round up.
I've created a search on a text and date field which has been working fine for few days now. However when I've started to search on the early days in February (i.e. 01/02/2005) it is not finding the records (but they do exist). When I create a record with 13/02/2005 or higher however it does find the record. I desperately need a solution as the DB will fall down without it. The code I'm using is:
If Not IsNothing(Me.TxtEmpNameSearch) Then VarWhere = (VarWhere + " AND ") & "[EmpName] ='" & Me.TxtEmpNameSearch & "'" End If
If Not IsNothing(Me.TxtDateSearch) Then VarWhere = (VarWhere + " AND ") & "[Dates] =#" & Me.TxtDateSearch & "#" End If
If IsNothing(DLookup("txtempno", "tblwork", VarWhere)) Then MsgBox Mes5, OKIn, Ti End Exit Sub End If
I have an application with a backend db on PC 1, and the same application on PC 2 linked to the backend db on PC 1 via the network.
The link works fine but the time formats are different.
On PC 1 the time format is shortime and displays as it should i.e. in 24 hour clock format
However on PC 2, opening the same database via the network, the time format is still shorttime but when you read the time within the code it comes out in AM/PM format. Also, when the defaul tiem should be #20:00:00# but this changes to #8:00:00 PM#
Weirdly though, when you just open the table, the times are in the correct shorttime format.
Guessing, it must be a setting within the main core of Access 2003 that is different between the 2 instances?
Just practicing at the moment, but i have a query that stores durations in hoursminutesseconds
Anyway i want the query to add these times up and give me a total. For example 01:00:00 and 01:00:00 would total up to 02:00:00. Hoever when i use the sum function within the query, i get 0.0833333333333333.
Any idea why and do i have to format the field within the query to recognise it as a Time and not a number?
I am making a race results database that is supposed to sum an entrant's two times together to obtain a total combined time.
Let's say that the two times I have are '41.43' (41 seconds and 43 milliseconds, there is no colon) and '1:48.17' (1 minute and 48 seconds and 17 milliseconds), and both are currently of the short text data type in my table. How would I go about obtaining the sum of these two times? I have already tried using queries to convert the strings to seconds with no success.
I wanted to assign the field "Number of magazine" with special format based on date/time format but showing only year and month in the format: "yyyy-mm".
So in property of this field in format I put yyyy-mm and in input mask I type 0000-00;;-
I also created the form based on the table containing above field and I defined format and input mask for corresponding formant in the same way like at the table.
But if I try to type date for example 2014-01 in text box of the form it comes up with the full date 2014-01-01. Why does it do like this? What do I do incorrectly?
I have a table of hours that have been worked by employees for each day of the week
[moh] (Monday's hours),[tuh],[weh],[thh],[frh],[sah],[suh] data eg (this is how I would like it to be inputted into the table) 7:24:00,7:24:00,7:24:00,7:24:00,7:22:00,0:00:00,0: 00:00
This equates to 36:58:00
I have tried
Total Hours: [moh]+[tuh]+[weh]+[thh]+[frh]+[sah]+[suh]
but I am struggling to get what I want in the right format.
How to record the initial data or a formula to format the end result.
I have a query that calculates elapsed time from TimeIn and TimeOut formatted to hours and minutes. I need be able to mulitply the elapsed time by the hourly wage in order to find the hourly pay.
How do you format the time so that it is compatible to multiply with the wage?
My SQL statement is below. Thanks for your help.
SELECT tTimeCards.ValetFirstName, tTimeCards.ValetLastName, Format([TimeOut]-[TimeIn],"hh:mm") AS HoursWorked, [HoursWorked]*[tValets]![HourlyWage] AS HourlyPay FROM tValets INNER JOIN tTimeCards ON tValets.ValetID = tTimeCards.ValetID;
I am a novice with Access and I would appreciate any help with two issues: 1. I am trying to get a value to forward to the next record in a different field so that I may keep a running total. For example: Record 1. A field named Today is added to a field named Forward to get a total in a field named Total. Record 2. I would like to get the value from record 1 in the Total field to carry forward to the the field named Forward in record 2.
The form looks something like this:
Today: 10:00 Forward: 2:00 Total: 12:00
I would like to get the value of 12:00 in record 1 carried forward to the Forward field of reocrd 2 so that the Forward field in record 2 would read 12:00.
2. I also need to add times together arithmatically but the problem I have is that when the total exceeds 24:00 hours it shows only the amount that exceeds 24 hours. For example, if I add 22:00 to 5:00 the result is 3:00 not 27:00. I need to show 27:00 as the total.
Any help with these two items would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks, uspilot
I've run into a bug, I think. I have a time field with it set to show "Medium Time" which is "hh:mm(AM/PM)", however, when I combine the information with another field in a query (=[OfficeDay]&" - "&[POfficeTime]), the time comes out as "Long Time" or "hh:mm:ss(AM/PM)". End result is Wednesday - 10:30:00AM when it should be Wednesday - 10:30AMDoes anyone know a way around this?
I think my subject heading explains it. How would you add or subtract two short time formatted values and produce a short time value? Also, how would you change a short time value into number minutes. (i.e. 5:30 into 330) Thanks!
I have this code for an excel file in vba, strDate = Format(Date, "mm-dd-yy") & " " & " at " & Format(Time, "h-mm-ss").
I'm trying to put colons ":" instead of the dashs "-" for the time but I get a debug error, is there any way I can make it work, or am i stuck with dashes. Thanks.
I imported an Excel Sheet into a database. In this sheet were several coulums list travel time from one place to another. In this sheet the time in minutes. ie 120 was the same as 2 hours.
Anyway Now that it is in my database it is still in the number format. Is there an easy way to convert this to a time Format ie hh:nn
Missing something simple here and can't figure it out. I want to display a time in military 24-hour format but can't get it to show the first "0" between the times 0000 - 0959.
I wish to insert in a table, not the date, but just the month and year (yy/mm or mm/yy), for example 05/10 or 10/05 for October 2005 (the order of yy and mm does not matter). In addition, I need to be able to sort the records chronologically using the same field. I have tried various solutions with the date/time field or the number field (e.g. using yy.mm where the mm are the decimals). However, it does not seem to work correctly. Any suggestions for how I can do this by configuring the format, inputs mask and validation rule? Niels
I have imported a appointment database that I need to analyse, however the Date & Time data within the table has been written as; Date: 20051220 - which I would like to read dd/mm/yyyy (20/12/2005) Time: 800 - which I would like to read as hh:mm (08:00)
I would like to produce a report of all the queries, i.e. longest appointment, shortest etc... but display them in the correct Date/Time format.
So how should I go about this? I cannot alter the imported table in anyway.
1. Can I produce a mirror like table of the existing table, that automatically use the correct Date/Time format? 2. Can I alter the values within a query? 3. Can I alter the final output in the Report?
Hey guys, been away from Access and SQL for some time. I have a simple 2 column table with one thats set to Date/Time that displays the date only. Unfortunaly, when I run my query, the date comes out 7/9/2005 and I want it to come out as 7/09/2005. I know I am going to have to force it out with a format command, but its been so long that I have no idea how to. Right now my query, in SQL format, looks like this.
SELECT * FROM Table1 ORDER BY Date DESC
I just need the format command to force the date. If anyone can help, thx.
I have 2 date fields date1 and date2 , and i have date/time data type but what i want to be inputed is in dd/mm/yyyy and not mm/dd/yyyy, what do i need to do in accees both date fields properties to make sure it is in UK date format. thanx
I have played with the format and input mask but i am lost dont know what to do.
Is there an easy way to convert an integer into time? What I want is for the person to enter in 0820 or even 820a and then convert it to 8:20 am. This is mainly to save keystrokes.
Hello, Using Access 2000, linking tables to Oracle 10g with a db trigger forcing the default display format within Oracle to dd/mm/yyyy hh24:mi:ss (ie 24hr time format). Unfortunately MS Access displays in 12 hr format in the datasheet grid. A Sybase article reported this issue:http://www.sybase.com/detail?id=1024202. Do you know if this has been fixed for more recent versions of MS-Access? Thanks Pascale
I have a small issue, but cannot solve it. I have a form with a textbox bound to a time(7) on a SQL server linked table.
Even if I put the format as "Short time 24h" or "hh:mm" it will always come out with seconds, nanoseconds, etc as soon as you change record. I would like to avoid using the "current" event to keep the "hh:mm" at any record change.
This has a time in a HH:MM:SS format (so 01:38:23)
What I need to be able to do is sum this greater than 24 hours and keep the format of HH:MM:SS - ideally I need to do this in the form field that I'll be using to sum it.
