Hi
i have 2 fields in a form - 'Balance' and 'Date'. Quite simply I need the date field to change automatically to todays date each time the data in the 'Balance' field is changed. Can anyone advise me on how to accomplish this.
Many thanks

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.
How do I write a Access 2010 Web database expression to give me the number of days between a particular field eg [sold date] and todays date?
Being a Web database I know I am restricted to a smaller list of available expressions - normally part of my expression would include eg date().
I am new to access 2010. I have a table called "Forecasts", and I wish to update the timestamp with todays date, whenever the user makes a change to the qty of goods forecasted.
I have been researching online for the solution to the correct format to datetime, but it doesnt seem to work.
Code:
Dim todayDate As Date
todayDate = Date
Dim sqlString As String
sqlString = "UPDATE [Forecasts] " & _
[Code] .....
The messagebox shows:
UPDATE [Forecast] SET Branch_Plant=123, Item_Number_Short='222', Description='AAA', UOM='EA', Estimated_Cost=123, Requesting_Business_Unit='AAA', End_Customer='CCC', Project ='Secret', Timestamp=#26/12/2013# WHERE ID =24
Then I hit a syntax error. Whats wrong with sqlString?
I am wanting to update data in one field which is being pulled in from another table based on an entry in another field in a form
Attached is the database. In the sales form I want to enter a customer ID which will then pull in the customer name from the customer table and put it in the Customer Field in the sales table.
I know I am duplicating the data by having customer name in both tables which is bad database design!
Here's what I got:
Table1: Case_ID, Duration
Table2: Case_ID, Notes_ID, Date, Duration
Table1.Duration is populated with numeric values
Table2.Duration is currently blank
Table2 may contain many notes for each entry in Table1.
I want to take the values of Table1.Duration and Update the last Note for each Case in Table2.
Basically I no longer want Duration to be entered at the case level, I prefer it be entered every time someone makes a note entry. The problem is that I have a lot of old cases, so I wanted to migrate the data in Table1.Duration to Table2.Duration.
Make sense? Anyone able to help me out?
Friends,
I have a form with a date field named PURGEDATE that has its source to a table and its' default value: =DateSerial(Year(Date()),Month(Date())+24,1).
When I open my form, the PURGEDATE Fields stored by default the above date (simply two years later than the current). Is there I was I can update this date each time the form is opened?
Thanks.

Hi
I wonder if anyone can help me out on a db i have inherited. Basically I need to add a field to a table and backfill the field with a number depending on a date field.
The new field (CallID) needs to record the order in which calls are received on a certain date (CallDate in the table). So for example the first call on 1/3/05 CallID=1, the second on 1/3/05 CallID=2. The following day CallID restarts at CallID=1.
So I'm looking for an update query which will set CallID for the several hundred existing records in the database. If anyone can help with a pointer or too, or example SQL, I would be very grateful
Cheers
I've run into some mysterious problem...
I use some bits from both of these calender examples
http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=62606&highlight=calender
I mainly use the double-click version, but I've got two date fields (start and stop date) and use som ideas from the other for that.
When I use it in my form it works almost perfect. The only problem is when I double-click a date in the calender, to get it into the date field, the date won't update in the date field until I click another object in the form.
Why? Any ideas?

I have the following fields
[safetycheckdue] is a date field
[safetycheckfreq] is a numeric field
i need an update query to update the field [safetycheckdue] with the value in [safetycheckfreq]
when i run the query, it just shows the existing value with adding the numbers of days to the safetycheckdue date.
How can I add 7 days in todays date to store target date in the table?
Code:
ssql = "Insert into tblUpdate([Update_ID],[Date],Username,Status,Target_Date) values('" & j & "',#" & Format(Date, "mm/dd/yyyy") & "#,'" & k & "','Open')"
CurrentDb.Execute ssql, dbFailOnError
Hello everyone.. I'm new :).
I'm working on a school database project and I am developing a Gym subscription/registration system.
Basically, once a user enters his/her personal info, they are taken to a second form where they can enter the subscription plan type (there are three plans).
Now, this is what I'm stuck on.. When a user enters a subscription start_date, I want the next field 'Exp._Date' to update to a year later, automatically.
So for example, if you enter 09/02/2005 in the start_date field, then the next field would automatically be filled with 09/02/2006.
Is it possible? And more importantly, how? I'm fairly new to DB's so please lay it in laymens ;).
Thanks guys.
PS: A screenshot of the form is located below:
http://img226.exs.cx/img226/9293/dbsc3xi.th.gif (http://img226.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img226&image=dbsc3xi.gif)
Most likely a newb question, but how can i just update the date/time field to the current date, as opposed to constantly entering in the current date?
Thanks
Is it possible to automatically update a date field in a form record without ever clicking in to that date field, but only because you have altered something else on that individual form record or an embedded, linked subform record? eg1. Staff details record - a) create a record for Bob Smith and 'Last Updated' field automatically inserts date b) amend record to say 'Robert Smith' and 'Last Updated' field changes to show new date, even though you never touched that date field. eg2. Risk register - main form record contains name, details, and 'Last Updated'; embedded subform allows you to add individual records of actions taken for each risk. I want the 'Last Updated' field to update each time I add an action, without amending the 'parent' risk record.

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])

Hi. I have two forms that both look at the same table. One form is for inputting data and the second for is for closing the job. I want to create a button that when clicked automatically changes a field on the input form and also fills in the current date on a field displayed on the closeout form. I then want it exit my two forms and take me back to my switchboard. Can anyone out there help?..Thanks.

I have 2 combo boxes: cboMonth, cboDay
and a text field: txtYear
cboMonth has values: Jan-Dec

How is this accomplished?
Thanks for any help!
I am using Access2007. Attached is my database.
I am attempting to track the duration of days since an initial date.
A individual has 3 business days to have their bloodwork/labs drawn after given instructions to do so. 'StartDate'= the initial date. 'LabsDate'= current date(would like it to automatically update to the current date everytime the database is open). BD ElapsedLabs= # of days that has elapsed between the initial day and todays date.
I am able to calculate the #days elapsed no problem, but I am having a problem with 'LabsDate' automatically updating to todays date. I am able to automatically place the current date in the first/ fresh entry, but it fails to update the next day.
I have tried placing the code Me.LabsDate= date() in the Before Update Form Property Sheet. Cannot get it to work.
I have 2 tables like this
TableA
FromDate
ToDate
BatchType
TotalBatches
TableB
Date

Is their a way to update the TotalBatches in TableA with the sum of NumBatches from tableB that have the same BatchType and falls between the FromDate and ToDate of TableA?
Having issues with getting auto update of Yes/No field dependant on todays date.
When users open the form the code runs through and checks all entries and updates the records if either of the dates in two separate fields is less than today. The issue I have is when some users are already using this form a second user cannot open it. Error shows other user information as having the form locked and code halts at highlighted spot below. Is there another way of ensuring this field is updated to Yes or No if the date in the field is less than current date.
Code:
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
Dim dbs As DAO.Database
Set dbs = CurrentDb
[Code] ....

View 2 Replies View RelatedHi everyone,
I've been thinking of this for days.
I have a table field that contains SSN data. Unfortunately, during the data import from the legacy database, all the front "0"s had been truncated. The current DB SSN field is a text data type which can handle the "0"s at the front. The table has about 50000 records which unable to modify each individually.
I need to modify the SSN data back to fixed length by adding "0"s at front. I think it will put too much effort to write a VB app to do this. I prefer to do this through the SQL. Dose anyone know how to do this? Thanks in advance.
