How to get this expression to work? It works by changing the numbers to correct date format, however, if the field is null, I want a blank to appear instead of "type"
=IIf([DATE_APPLIED_X] Is Null,"""",CDate(Mid([DATE_APPLIED_X],5,2) & "/" & Right([DATE_APPLIED_X],2) & "/" & Left([DATE_APPLIED_X],4)))

I'm trying to pass some dates from an excel userform into access.
The date is chosen using the DTPicker tool ( basically a drop down calender). I have set the property of this to custom format dd/MM/yyyy, however dates get passed to the appropriate field in access in the American format.
In access the date fields are set to Short Date and the example shown for this format is in the UK format. I assign the date to a variable before passing that variable to the update SQL string:
Code:
s1 = Nz(DTPicker1.Value, #1/1/2000#)
I have dimmed s1 as date and then added:
Code:
s1 = Format(Date, "dd/MM/yyyy")
My update string is:
Code:
"SET [Stage 1] = " & "#" & s1 & "#" & " "
I suspect that the nozero function may be the issue but am at a bit of loss atm.
I have a calculated field in a report, which is as follows:
=IIf(IsNull([POI_E1A]),(([TodaysDate]-[EADDate])/365)/3,[A1]+[T2]+[A3]+[T4]+[A5]+[T6]+[A7]+[A8])
The calculation works fine; however, I only want to show the whole number (not rounded up; not rounded down). In other words, if the result is 0.9967, then I want 0 to appear.
I cannot figure out how to make this happen. In the properties section I ensured the format was "general number" with 0 decimal places but this didn't change the result. I tried changing the format in the calculated field, again, I wasn't successful.
Hello,
I have extracted 4 digit numbers from a long strings of characters and numbers which I have identified as date. Some are inputted as
mmdd (example: 1129)
ddmm (example: 2310)
I have to calculate the number of days between the start and end dates. I tried formatting as date, but I can't get it to work.
Any suggestion?
Thanks!
I have a table populated with several thousand records-one field is a date field in the format of 5/5/2006. I have to change the data so that it is 5/05/2006 in order to import it into a SQL table.
I'm sure there has to be an easy way to do it, but I can't come up with it. Changing the imput mask on the field affects future data input but does not change what is currently there.
Any ideas or suggestions?
Thanks!
I have this problem, I have a field that updates by using the now() function. The problem is when I run a date query I have a problem due to the long date format. Is there a way to change all the records with a Long date format to a short date one?
Here is an example of what im working with:
Long Date: Januar 1, 2007 2:00 PM
Short Date: January 1, 2007
When I run a query I only get the records with the short date even though I have records with the Long Date format don't show up.
How do I change the background colors and text formatting in all of the reports in one database at the same time? If this is not possible, is there an easier way to change the report formatting without going through every report?

Is it possible to change the format of a date picker, for instance once i have selected a date, its is visible as 09/11/2006, can this be edited to just the month and the year 11/2006.
Hi,
I'm using a web based form to store dates (and other records) in an access database. I use the dd/mm/yyyy date format (europe. go figure)
Anyway, the problem is that when submitting an ambiguous date, as in 11/01/2004, access sees it as 01-NOV-2004 rather then 11-JAN-2004, as it should.
Why does this happen, and how can I fix it. I have no problem doing the fixing in the access file itself or in the SQL command that populates it- whatever works best.
Thanks,

I am having difficulties changing a date/time field like '22/04/2013 09:14' to make it look like '2013-04-22 09:14' using a query.
View 3 Replies View RelatedOn my report, I want rows with expired dates to stand out by having their borders thicker. Something like:
Code:
If Me.txtDate < Date() Then
Me.txtDate.BorderWidth = 6
End If
When I do that, it ends up formatting every txtDate field in the report if one of them passes the If criteria instead of only ones that are expired.
Dear All
It may be a very dump question but I can't get my head around it.
I have a MainForm and then a subform Form1 on it.
There is a command button cmd1 on subform Form1. Now I want to access cmd1 through another command button cmd2 on a different form Form2. How would I design the statement?
I have tried the followings on OnClick event of cmd2 on Form2
Forms!MainForm.Form1.cmd1.visible = true
Forms!MainForm.cmd1.visible=true
Forms!Form1.cmd1.visible=true
Forms!MainForm.Subform.Form1.cmd1.visible=true
Nothing works. Any suggestions?
Thank you
:confused: :confused:
can't find how to add today's date to a report formatted as "August 30, 2014." I can't understand why that's not one of the options when inserting a date.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've been struggling with this for awhile now. I've been trying to research a solution but I'm not even sure what to search for.I have the following table structure:tblContactsContact_ID (PK)First_NameLast_NametblBidPackBid_Pack_ID (PK)Bid_Pack_DescriptiontblDistributionListList_ID (PK)Bid_Pack_ID (FK) (1-M)Contact_ID (FK) (1-M)What I would like to do is create a query to display all of the contacts from tblContacts that are not associated with a certain Bid_Pack_ID. My end goal is to create a form where I enter Distribution List Information. I want a listbox on the left with all of the contacts from tblContacts and a listbox on the right with contacts that have been selected for a particular Bid_Pack. When the user double clicks an item on the left it should show up on the right and be removed from the left. I'm looking for the same functionality as when you use the design wizard and you choose fields to include/exclude.For example, let's say I want to add contacts for distribution list "A". My thought is the box on the left would show all the contacts from tblContacts that aren't selected for distribution list "A" and the box on the right would show all of the contacts that are part of distribution list "A". As you double click an entry it would perform the appropriate record creation/deletion and each box would be required.So back to my original question, what is the correct method (relationship, join, querydef) to select all of the contacts from tblContacts that haven't been assocatied with a particular bid pack?Thanks for any help you can provide. Even a nudge in the right direction would be appreciated.

I would like to set up a conditional format to format those fields in the current month. For example, this month is would format all fields with "5".
Next month all fields with "6"
In the month space.
I can't seem to figure out the expression, I know I'm close.
I am trying to import an Excel2002 file into Access2002 using the import wizard. There is a hidden worksheet named 'Data' with 5 ranges defined (Page1-5), one of which I am trying to import: I am getting the following error message –
“Import Spreadsheet Wizard -- The wizard is unable to access information in the file ‘D:xxxx.xls’. Please check that the file exists and is in the correct format.”
I have successfully imported other Excel files from the same folder, but using a different original file. The original Excel file giving me the trouble was created in 1999 but has been saved with Excel2002 version.
Can anyone tell me what causes the “correct format” error? I am confident it is something having to do with the Excel file. I've attached a zip file with the problem workbook.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
Wondering if anyone can advise...
The 1st/2nd Jan of this year were treated by most people as still being week 53 of 2004, and week commencing 3rd January being week 1 of 2005. In VB I have a formula to do this:
WeekNo = Format(Now(), "ww", vbMonday, vbFirstFourDays)
However my problem now is that I need to replicate this format in a Query within Access. The formula
WeekNo: Format(Date(),"ww")
treats 1st/2nd Jan as week 1, the 3rd as week 2 etc. Any idea how I can get it to treat 3rd Jan as week 1 instead?
There's a challenge for someone!! Help appreciated.
So I have a table with around 20,000 records and there is a field which holds a phone number for each individual within the organization, I want to run a select query that counts how many are not in the correct format
The format is 10 digits and it must start with a 0
Using Access 2010
Howdy Folks,
I have an equation that will often return negative numbers in an update query.
I need to be able to change any negative to zero, and update the table with that zero.
So far, all I've been able to do is ignore negatives with only positive numbers updating.
Thanks
I recieve Excel worksheets with information and then import this information into a table I have in access. I verify the data and as a last step I append the data to a table called AllReportData2012 which is used to pull information for my reports. Part of the Excel information that is imported to a new table includes the employee's name with work details in each row.
In my access report I do not use the employees name, I use their employee ID number. I have a table in my acess database that contains 2 columns. The employees Name and their associated Employee ID number.After I import the Excel information to Access how do I set up a macro or programming that will look at the name in each row and change it to the correct Employee ID. I could have anywhere from 20 rows of recods to 600 rows of records.
Okay, this one should be simple and can be solved in one of two ways. I have two seperate tables with a 12 digit identifying number that is ALMOST exactly the same in each. I am trying to match up these two tables, which works amazingly well, except for the occasional case where the 12 digit ID (which is called API) ends in 01, instead of 00. The last two digits do not make a difference at all, but in one table it will end in 00 and the other it will end in 01, even though they are the same record.
Basically, it looks like this...
Table 1---------------Table 2
541236554700-----541236554700
541236123700-----541236123700
443231246700-----443231246701
So basically, in my final query, the last entry will not show up since these two are not related by this API (ID) number. Any way to either replace the 01 on the end with 00... OR to remove the last two digits?
I set my phone number to be formatted like (920)123-4567
I copied data from an excel spread sheet - now the phone numbers are like 920-123-4567.
Is there a way that I can update the phone numbers to be the correct formatting (920) 123-4567?
I have this expression:
=IIf([Text131] Between 16 And 30,"Unacceptable",IIf([Text131] Between 31 And 42,"Marginal",IIf([Text131] Between 43 And 56,"Effective",IIf([Text131] Between 57 And 71,"Very Good",IIf([Text131] Between 72 And 80,"Outstanding","")))))
It works just fine, but I was wondering if there'd be a way to change the text color of the <<true>> statement based on what it is? i.e. "Outstanding" and "Very Good" would be green, "Effective" could be yellow, "Marginal could be brown and "Unacceptable" could be red. How would I implement that into this expression, if that's even possible? Thanx for your assistance!
I'm tracking some charges and want to report them based on month/year and an Early/Late (yes/no) flag within the query I created. When I wrote the report I grouped on mon/year then on Early/Late, then calculate averages. I then want to calculate the difference in the charges between the Early & Late rows. Here....
Jun 13
32 868 27 (Early row #, charge, avg)
11 1279 116 (Late row)
Now I want to subtract the 27 from the 116. I figured out I could assign the 27 to a field in the header and the 116 in the footer, that's the only way I could make them "stick". I then calculate the difference and things are great. Until I try to print it. When I print the difference is 0 because the group header & footer fields are both populated with the 27.
Hello,
I would like to format the currency values in a query. There values will either be Euro or Pound. Is it possible to change the currency format "on the fly" in this way in a query?
I would like to have a variable currency format. For example:
If [fldCurrency] = [Euro] Then format [fldAmount] As Euro
If [fldCurrency] = [Pound] or [GBP] Then format [fldAmount] As Sterling
How does one format data as Euro?
Many thanks,

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?
