I was wondering if there was a function in access which allows the user to type in a date, and instead of showing just the date, it shows the actual day of the week as well, in a seperate field. Is this possible?
Thanks

Hope someone can help.
I have a table with a bunch of fields. There are two critical fields. The Date and Time. I have these set to Date() and Time().
Now for a report. I would like to have a report that takes the input of a user to display the entries from only one time frame to another time frame.
For example, if a user is in need of the report for 01/01/07, they can choose the query and input in the date and time, but a full day is considered 01/01/07 starting at 6:00 am to 01/02/07 at 5:59 am. Therefore, if a user inputs that they would like to see the report for 01/01/07, entries that were inputted in prior to 01/01/07 at 5:58 AM should not appear.
My Query, criteria ask for the date and time, but I cannot figure out to ask the user for a logic that would be able to pull the whole "full day" reports.
Hope I'm making sense here.
I have a monthly system data report I wish to manipulate in Access.
I have created a table to match the 3 fields in the data report; the date, widget ID and number of widgets made.
Widgets are made every day (including weekends and bank holidays) but there will only be a data entry on days where the number of widgets made changes from the previous day ie if Widget ID 33 was made 5 times on 05 Oct, 06 Oct, 07 Oct but on 8 Oct there were 7 made, the data would look like…
Date.................Widget ID..................Number Made
05 Oct ..................33.............................. .5
08 Oct ..................33.............................. .7
I would like to write a query that shows the data for every day, duplicating the data for the previous day in the instance the same number is made. The output should look like..
Date.................Widget ID..................Number Made
05 Oct ..................33.............................. .5
06 Oct ..................33.............................. .5
07 Oct ..................33.............................. .5
08 Oct ..................33.............................. .7
The data is monthly. There are so many different widgets on the report that it’s pretty much guaranteed there will be at least one entry on the first date and the last date in order for a query to find the full date range – as opposed to a user having to manually enter the date range.
Using the example above where the first entry is on 05 Oct it should not be assumed that 01-04 Oct was zero, the query should then look for last entry in the previous month’s data stored in the database (I realise the first time I do this some form of manual adjustment would have to be made as no previous data would exist).
Hi All,
I have been working on this problem for hours, but I keep hitting a brick wall!
Basically, whatever date is entered in [field1], I want [field2] to return a date of the 15th of the following month. For example:-
01-02-2007 = 15-03-2007
31-08-2007 = 15-09-2007
23-12-2007 = 15-01-2008
Thanks in advance,
Paul.
I need to create a query that will return for the latest document, the greatest document number. If I do select max(doc_date), max(doc_nbr), I end up getting the max doc_nbr, but it has an earlier doc date. How would I structure the query to do this?
An example is for these values:
1/30 1
1/30 3
1/30 5
2/28 2
2/28 4
The result should be:
2/28 4
I will then need to see if this returned value is different than the value that was returned the day before, but I am pretty sure I know how to do that.
Thanks,
David
I am tring to add a number of years to a dob. I'm doing this by adding my
date+years*365.26 I get a string of numbers. I then convert the number in
the next column to actual date again. I'm getting the correct date. I've tried unsuccesfully to use the dateadd function.Now I want my criteria on that column to allow me to return only date in a given to from period of my choosing. I want to determine the date range each time I run the query.
An example would be:
DOB age date I need to follow up
5/15/1935 + 75 = 5/15/2005
Then I request dates between 4/1/05 and 5/30/05 and this date is returned.
I've tried the between_and functions but nothing is returned. I'm guessing it's because the column is still a calculation and not a true date.
I've tried: Adding a column to my query to convert the number string back to
date format (criteria failed to return a result). Adding a second column
that ='s my converted number to date column (criteria failed to return a
result)
And I've tried the make table query and then run another query from the new table. I can't seemto make this happen. I think it's not recognizing my data as a date because it isn't returning any data.
Is ther an easier way to: Add a number of years to a date and have it return
a date and not the number string?
If not is there a better way to convert the string to a date?
Is there a way to get my criteria to recognize the date and return date
between my begin and end dates?
Thanks
I have a query which pulls up results based on the value of a text box. All works well except one field has a DOB (date) and if I search say for " /1976" I get no results, however search /76 and all the people with that year of birth show then show up. The date is stored in the dd/mm/yyyy format.
I'm using the like [forms]![clients]![searchfield] in the criteria of the query to bring up results.
I have two class variables (both arrays) among about 10 other class variables, that are not returning any values but "" for the string or #12:00:00AM" for a date. Here are my class variables:
Code:
'UPSData Class Module
Private p_LetterArray() As String
Private p_date() As Date
Private p_LetterArraySize As Integer
My Properties
Code:
'Properties
Public Property Get LetterArray(index As Integer) As String
LetterArray(index) = p_LetterArray(index)
End Property
Public Property Let LetterArray(index As Integer, NewValue As String)
[Code] ....
As I said, tLet and tDate result in "" and #12:00:00AM# respectively. When I step through the code, the values for tmp.LetterArray(0) is assigned "src" and tmp.UPSDate(0) stores "12/25/2013" correctly.
When I assign tLet and TDate, the same thing happens when stepping through the code. I'll use the LetterArray property to describe what happens:
Get LetterArray is called. p_LetterArray(0) does equal "src"
Let LetterArray is called. NewValue is "src" and p_LetterArray is "src" when End Property is highlighted in the debugger
Scope returns to Get LetterArray with End Property highlighted. In checking the values, LetterArray(0) = ""
Same steps happen with the same results ("12:00:00AM" vice "")
I want to be able to display the result of a difference between Date/Time values in "HH.MM" format (i.e. yes I want the result in decimals and I don't want Access to round up or down just because it feels like doing it!). I have used the following:
Example 1:
Dim ActualManHours as Long
ActualManHours = (txtEndTime.Value - txtStartTime.Value) * 86400
txtActualManHours.Value = ActualManHours
Example 2:
Dim ActualManHours as Long
ActualManHours = DateDiff("h",txtStartTime.Value, txtEndTime.Value) & "." & Format(DateDiff("n",txtStartTime.value,txtEndTime. value) Mod 60, "00")
Example 3:
Dim StartTime as Double
Dim EndTime as Double
Dim ActualManHours as Long
StartTime = CDbl(txtStartTime.Value)
EndTime = CDbl(txtEndTime.Value)
ActualManHours = EndTime - StartTime
txtActualManHours.Value = ActualManHours
I have what I think is a simple query returning the names of students that have been dismissed since September 2012 using a "WithdrawnDate" field. The query pulls a lot of information from other related tables (about 6 different ones), and has two expressions.
When the criteria is set to either "Is Not Null" or a date range (which is all I need), it does not return the complete set of records based on the data that fits the criteria in the main table?
Could there be some sort of join preventing all records from being returned?
Hi,
I searched in this form and on the internet on how to display a form in Full screen; however, I could not find an answer that worked.

Is there a way to split the field record into 2? My field name is structured like this: De Jesus, Sheila
I would want to separate the last and given name.
I hate to do it manually because my record currently is now close to 5,000.

I have a field within a table entitled "Name Display" This displays names in the format:
Surname,forename
I have used the following:
Full Name: Right([Name_Display],Len([Name_Display])-InStr([Name_Display]," ")) & " " & Left([Name_Display],InStr([Name_Display]," ")-1)
To rearrange so format is displayed as forename,surname
However my output with some fields appears as:
SARAH WAILES, with spaces inbetween.
Can anyone suggest a way of removing these spaces?
Thanks
I have a text field that has a full name (ie. Smith, John). I need to somehow split this into a first and last name...or at least reverse the order for a mailing list.
Can anyone help me?

I literally named my tables as follows and then literally typed the following into the query editor (SQL View):

The error I get is, "Syntax Error in FROM clause"
What's my error?

I'm the dummy in question. I'm new to Access and have a fairly simple database that I'm using to find potential customers. I am targeting them by two criteria using two different queries (both queries are looking at different fields of the same table). I want to create a combined query that pulls ALL of the results from both of my target queries. Searching around this forum I see that I need to create an Outer Join which Access doesn't exactly do. I also see that there are ways to simulate this, but I can't seem to figure out those ways. If someone could please explain this to me in a very simple way, I would be very grateful. Thank you.

I have a main form with one child form. This child form also has a child form. This last child form has two tab controls it. When I tab through fields on the form, I have to reposition the form so that I can see these last fields. Otherwise I have to tab blindly through them. How do I get the form display the fields as I tab to them ? I have to design the forms on the larger size because the users like that. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
thanks !
I accidently unchecked the "allow full menus" option in Tools - Startup. When I did that, the menu bar at the top of my database no longer displayed the "Tools" option.
Does anyone know how I can restore the full menus option?
I am new to access and can do nothing with my database until I get my menus back.
Thanks,
Model Full Name: "Jones, John P." (this was the one not in MS' examples)
Last Name Extract = Jones
lastN = IIf(InStr(1,[Model Full Name],",")=0,"",right([Model Full Name],len([Model Full Name] - (InStr(1,[Model Full Name],",")+2)))First Name Extract = John

Im trying to programmatically (without any user intervention) retrieve the long path name for a given file. It seems to me this should be a rather easy thing to achieve using Access VBA. Ive tried using various FileSystemObject methods with no luck. Ive Googled many variants of VBA get full path without any meaningful hits. provide the first string as a parameter to some object and have it magically return the second string.
String 1: C:PROGRA~2COMMON~1MICROS~1VBAVBA7VBE7.DLL
Stint 2: C:Program Files (x86)Common Filesmicrosoft sharedVBAVBA7
In a form's VBA code, I'd like to know whether a full record has been selected, like when the user selects one or more rows before deleting with the Del key.
Is this possible?
According to [URL]......, Me.SelHeight returns the number of rows that have been selected within the selection rectangle. If I select a rectangle of cells in Datasheet view, for example, Me.SelHeight will be > 0 even though full records have not been selected. I want to know how many full records have been selected. Is this possible?
