Tables :: Calculate Default Date Value Based On Todays Date
Jul 16, 2014
I have a database which stores information relating to club members, which I'm in the middle of giving a bit of a facelift and one thing I want to automate is the calculation of the expiry date.
My memberships expire annually at the end of December and the expiry date is set as a default value within the table properties. This has to be manually changed every September (every new member from then pays for 15 months) to the following December.
Is there a formula I can insert in the defaul value field that will return December the current year if todays date is between January and August, and December next year if todays date is between September and December?
What's the formula we can use to calculate days between no of days between date job is open and today's date in a query. I am using formulat below formula but the DATE_OPEN and Today (todays date) pops us as enter parameter value. I dont want those enter parameter windows pops us. The date job is open is in a linked table and linked table is getting the information from BPCS software. The date in Liinked is in format YYYYMMDD.
Total Days: DateDiff("d",[Date_Open],[Today])
The SQL Details are below. AUNPRDF_AAA802 is a linked table and information gets updated on 12 am everyday
SELECT DateDiff("d",[Date_Open],[Today]) AS [Total Days], AUNPRDF_AAA802.AAAGE AS Age, AUNPRDF_AAA802.AAORD AS [Job Number], AUNPRDF_AAA802.AAWKSP AS Workshop, AUNPRDF_AAA802.AASWKT AS WorkType, AUNPRDF_AAA802.AANAME AS [Customer Name], AUNPRDF_AAA802.AANME AS [Service Admin], AUNPRDF_AAA802.AASDE1 AS Complaint,
I'm wondering what would be the best way to update a list of records based on today's date. Right now I have it to open the form based on the LAST record and then navigate to the record they would like to update, I would only like to show what was entered that day.
I have a "Status" combobox, I'd like the "Date Case Closed" field to auto fill today's date when "Status" combobox = Closed. The way I know how to do this is by using an IIf with Date() function, but, if I do that, the date is gonna keep changing everyday. Do I have options to do this?
I am using the following expression to calculate a completion date for a project which is based on the due date. My problem that I am running into is when I get to a project that is due on a Tuesday, it returns a date for Sunday when it should be Friday.
I have a drop down box in my access database which I want to use to give completion dates to jobs, the drop down has three values:
Emergency Urgent Routine
emergency equates to 1 day Urgent 7days Routine 28days
I have had a dig in the help files and I can get the order completion date to show the terms emrgency, urgent and routine, however I nned to calculate the date, not just show the term, this where I lose track of how to get any further, I have searched the forum and cannot find an example, but perhaps I am not using the right search criteria, I have tried date calculation on drop down results etc etc and no dice, I am sorry if I am posting a question whichg has already been answered, and if anyone can post a link to a solution that would be great to.
Many thanks for your help this is my first post on this forum, but I am sure I will be here for a long tme to come access is fast becoming my life :D
again many thanks for taking the time to read this and I appreciate any help you can give me.

This is my first post to this group. I am building a database for a charity event and need to calculate the age of a person based on the Date Of Birth field in the table and add that number to a separate column in the table. Also, need to calculate the age as of a certain date (the beginning of the event). Thank you for any help.
I have a form for entering safety training which includes Training Date and Expiration Date, this form is called "Scheduled Training".
The table containing training courses with their requirements and frequency is called "Course Requirements". Within this table I have a "Frequency" field (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) and another field "FrequencyPeriod" (Year, Month, Initial, As Needed).
What I'd like for the Expiration Date on the form to do: Use [ScheduledTraining].[Training Date] and look at both the [CourseRequirements].[Frequency] & [CourseRequirements].[FrequencyPeriod] to populate the Expiration Date.
I am trying to calculate a value based on comparing the current date to the dates in these fields. I am using the below formula. However, using 6/27/2013 as the current date, my formula keeps resulting in "Bronze" when it should result in "Standard" Am I doing something wrong?
=IIf(Date()<[Bronze],"Standard",IIf((Date()>=[Bronze]) And (Date()<[Silver]),"Bronze",IIf(Date()>=[Silver] And Date()<[Gold],"Silver",IIf(Date()>=[Gold] And Date()<[Platinum],"Gold","Platinum"))))
We are getting in files from a vendor that come in with today's date and different extensions and prefixes such as BA0003.20121217.pdf or MYLOOKUP.20121217.psv where the only constant is the date, there are over 100 files that I need to change the date part to today's date. I would like to find all the data before the first period and all the data after the last period and replace the date part with todays date.
I'm trying to create a button that posts an order and before it post certain criterias need to be meet. One of them is a date needs to be selected in the order, if not a popup show to explain. The trouble I'm having is referring to todays date in the VBA code. I've been reading and trying different things but not getting anywhere, hopefully someone can fill me in.
This is the code I'm working with.
If [PayOrderMoneyReceivedSubform].[Form]![OrderDate] = TodaysDate Then dosomething else donothing end if
The part I'm having trouble with is TodaysDate, what should I be putting there?
One the face of it it sounds quite simple - i have a table that holds various bits of info about a customer but also a field that contains a holiday period - what i want to be able to do is show all records that do not equal todays date.
So if today was 11/04/06 - and one of my customers had 11/04/06 as one of his holiday days he would not appear on the report but all the others would.
I have a basic trouble ticket type database that I built. It records troubles and auto fills the date and time when a new records created. I want a simple query that will display the number of calls that each person has taken today.
The problem being that If I use >Date()-1 I will get calls from this time yesterday until now. Is there a way to round down the time to today only? I don't want to lose my time stamp.
When a form in my database is loaded I want access to check if a textbox on the form is showing today's date and if not send me an email. I'm quite new to VBA so not 100% sure what to do but I've had a few attempts and none seem to work. I have managed what is probably the hard part and can get it to email me but can't seem to get the 'If the textbox is not today's date then' bit right.
The textbox is linked to a table and the data type is 'Date/Time', it does show the time and the date so don't know if this makes a difference? The text box is [DateUpdated] and the form is [Site].
I have an access database with a query which inserts system date/time from Now() function to a column. My system date is 12-05-14 (12 May 14) and when it is inserting in the table is taken as 05-12-14 (5 Dec 14).
I want a default value to equal the first 2 characters of field [first name] and first 3 characters of field [last name] and the numeric datevalue of [DOB] 'date of birth'.
In excel its easy, C D E resultformula AndrewTester12/12/1980AnTes-29567
Formula LEFT(c9,2)&LEFT(d9,3)&"-"&e9
How do I get same result in Access?
tried
Field 'PRN', a text field set as default =""""& left([first name],2}+LEFT(Last name],3), date()&""""
Access accepted the above statement but when I input user details the default doesn't work.
I create a database through ms access and there have a birth date box and admission date. Another box for Age.I want to see the age in month or year figure in to the age box when I go next field. Which will be calculate from admission date to birth date.
I am new to Access. I am after a vba script to run an update query.
I have a table named MYOB_Invent. I have a Query Named MYOB_Update.
The query is showing records where my field named Test1 is null.
I want to update records with null in the field to today's date (the date of the day that it is run) formatted as 18/08/2014 and the field next to it is named Updated (which is yes/no) from un-ticked to ticked for the updated values.
I would like a vba script to automate the process as I want to automate it via a commandbutton for users.
All, using access 2010. How do I display the default value of a date/time field to just the current year instead of using =date() to get the full date.
