Reports :: Apply Conditional Formatting For Dates That Were Equal To Date And Plus 14 Days
Apr 27, 2015
I have a field that displays a date on a form.
I set the conditional formatting to be
Value is Between Date() and Date() + 14
It would only apply the formatting for dates that were equal to the date and +5 days.
I then tried Between Now() and Now() + 14
Same results
I then tried Between Date() and DateAdd("d",14,Date())
No change
I checked the property for the box and the back style is normal.
I am making the back color a light red. I tried to change the fore color red. Nothing.
I displayed what Date() was giving me in a text box control and I displayed what Date() + 14 was giving me in a text box control. They both were showing the correct dates, but my date, which was in between them, was not changing colors.
In my report I have date fields that span over 5 years with different pull dates ex. 3, 6, 9,12,24,36,48 and 60 months. I have successfully formatted these fields using the conditional format by: Expression Is Date()<[9 Month] and Date()>[6 Month] for the 9 month field and so forth for each field. This has allowed me to highlight the field that is the next upcomming date. One report I have this works fine for, very simple report. In a more complicated report, I have moved the fields together and have highlighted every other row to segregate them this formatting does not work. It will highlight the field, but it will pull in earlier dates, from 2004. Is there another way to format the fields with conditions other than the condition format? Possible to do it in code similar to highlighting every other line? The example I followed was here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q210392
I will be out and about for a couple of days, but will return any replys to questions when I get back.
Hi I have a form with a field "expiry date" . I want to apply conditional formatting to use as a reminder to show when the expiry date is approaching (say 1 month) and to leave in that style until a new date is entered. Thanks
I am trying to get my expiration date field to highlight a certain color once the date comes closer.I have weapons qualification dates. The user will input the date he/she qualified and then a expiration date (6 months from that day) automatically pops up.
Now what I want to do is once the expiration dates gets closer is change the color. So when it is 90 days from expiration it would highlight yellow, and when its 30 days away it would highlight red. I believe this can all be done through conditional formatting, but for the life of me I cant figure it out!!
I've got the conditional formatting thing down and am able to determine if a date is close to expiring by using 'value is less than now()+30', but I'd like to replicate the same thing, but the expiration date is based on the fiscal year (October to October).
The date entered is the date of qualification. How can I conditionally format to fit my needs?
however conditional formatting is simply not working. I have two fields on a report, the report is based on a query, and the two fields are called "ExpectedCost" and "ActualCost". I want "ActualCost" to turn red if and when it is greater than "ExpectedCost". I clicked on "ActualCost" and then clicked on "Conditional Formatting". I selected "Expression" and then put the following expression in the space available: [ActualCost]>[ExpectedCost]
The syntax seems to be correct; however it just isn't working.
I have a field on a report that I was able to make bold using conditional formatting. I want to make the other fields in the row bold as well if the value of the 1st field equals a set value.
I put conditional formatting on the Contractor field
EX: Field Value Is equal to "Estimations"
I was Bid Amount, Sq Footage, =[bid amount]/[sq footage] and =[bid amount]/[estimate] fields to also be bold if the Contractor field is equal to Estimations.
I wish to use the conditional formatting that if the date required has passed the current date - i wish for everything for that record be turned red when searched or printed.
ive managed to make the Date Reqd turn red but i dont know how i will make the other cells follow the conditional formatting from another cell?
My other Cells i wish to change to red from the Date Reqd are - Customer Code, Site, Plot No, Product
I am making a planner in the access 2010 report. I am showing which activity finished when but I also want to highlight/ shade the cell to the corresponding month on the planner to the right. See picture above. I tried conditional formatting with date rage 1/1/2014 and 31/1/2014 but it does not gives me accurate result.
I have a report where I read the value of a field in my query (a boolean) field, and if the value is true, I display two lines on my report, hide the lines if the value is false. Here's the code:
Private Sub Report_Page() If Me.Flagged.Value = True Then Me.Line102.Visible = True Me.Line95.Visible = True Else Me.Line102.Visible = False Me.Line95.Visible = False End If End Sub
This code works great.... except on the first page of the report! If I run the report in break mode, I can see that it evaluates my condition as "False" on the first record, regardless of the actual value in the field.
My report is based on a query that has some conditions in it, but, everything works correctly - except page 1.
I'm using Access 2010. I set up conditional formatting in some areas of my report. They're very simple like if a cell is between 0 and .4, then the background color of the field is red. They work just fine...when I click on the field. I don't remember ever running into this issue in the past. I've been reading potential solutions on the web, but haven't found a way to make the conditional formatting rules kick in when the report is loaded.
In my Access 2010 report, I am attempting to perform conditional formatting of one field based on the difference between two fields. In particular, one field is "Time Scheduled" and the other field is "Time In". If the "Time In" is equal to or greater than 60 minutes of "Time Scheduled", I would like to format it to be red font. If it is less, I would like to format it to be green font.how I can conditionally format to do this?
I am trying to add conditional formatting to a several fields in a report. So far i can use the contional formatting to set a field called [colour] to set that field to red and bold. But i believe I need to use an Expression for all fields, so I can make all fields that = red go red. I have used the the expression:
I have a text box on a report from the Control Source CSCS Expiry Date. The format in the table and query and report is Short Date. The Text Format is Plain Text.
I have named the text box txtCSCSExpiryDate. I would like to make the background red when the date is 01/04/2013. I have ensured the text box back style is normal.
I am using expression [txtCSCSExpiryDate]=#01/04/2013#
And in case it was the Control Source: [CSCS Expiry Date]=#01/04/2013#
I also tried: [CSCS Expiry Date]<Date() [txtCSCSExpiryDate]<Date()
I applied the formatting each time, tried closing and re-opening the database. Changed the background format colour to green instead of red and even restarted my computer and it just stays exactly the same.
I've just noticed something else. I have a screen only button on my report header with
The expression On Click you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: A problem occurred while Employee Details was communicating with the OLE server or ActiveX Control.
Is this linked to my formatting not working?
I've just checked and on my 5 reports all of the print buttons are giving me this error! (I added the button as they are part of a navigation form menu which only shows report view, I am editing in the original report design view though.) They were working yesterday! Is it because I compacted and repaired the database?
I am playing with a report. Crosstab report works, but I would like to print check mark if value is "X". Other values are "A" and "E" and they need to remain as they are.
I need some help with a conditional formatting function on my form.
I have two seperate date fields and I need to set up a conditional format on one field so that when the date on this field is greater than the date on the other field, the text turns red and bold.
Is there a way to use conditional formatting with a date? For instance, in my form I'd like the date field to turn red once a particular date has passed (to show that memberships are expired). Can this be done or am I better to just format a report of upcoming expiration dates?
I am making a tracker to track events and how close we are to the next time the event has to be done. Specifically the event has to be done every 6 (180 days) months. I am looking for a conditional format formula that can color code when certain days have been hit. When it is less then 30 days or less from the next event color it yellow, when 31-180 color it green and anything past due color it red.
Using todays date as an example 12-Feb-15 it would be colored green. 150-179 days from now I would need it to be colored yellow. Anything beyond 180 days from now would need to be red.
I have a report which I would like to apply conditional formatting on multiple fields. I would like the conditional formatting to be based on two types of criteria
First criteria would be contracts that start with the year 2014. I used the following expression which worked - InStr(1,[ContractNr],"2014" AND [DirectorInCharge]= "Joseph Steinbok" or "Adam Godson")
To this expression I would also like to highlight fields which contracts start with 2014 AND have a particular Director assigned to it. For this I used the following expression - And [DirectorInCharge]="Name"
On their own, both expressions are working but I want to combine them. How do I do this? I've tried the following - InStr(1,[ContractNr],"2014" AND [DirectorInCharge]= "Name") but then nothing is highlighted. I also tried InStr(1,[ContractNr],"2014") AND [DirectorInCharge]= "Name" - in this instance EVERY record was highlighted.
I have a report that I would like to have the rows be a specific color based on the value in 1 field on the row.
I have attempted to use conditional formatting but it will not work (IE, I can get font color to change, but not field boxes to have color).
The field is labeled [text144] based on the value in the field (1,2, or 3) I would like the field to be a different color. i.e. 3 = green 2 = yellow 1 = red
Need to confirm whether the Default formatting option in the Conditional formatting Dialog won't work in datasheet view of a form. Please note that all conditional criteria are working fine but not the Default Formatting option - only in the Datasheet view (In Single Form view the default formatting is working fine)
