Hi there, just a quick question really.
I have got a start date and an end date field in a table both in Date/Time data type. Can i validate the end date so that it cannot be longer than 5 days after the start date, that has been entered. Or is this impossible to do in a table?
Thanks for any help
Here is the code I have in a module. When I put the correct dates in, the message box appears telling me that the date is incorrect, but I have checked and the closing date appears to be later that the date for completion.
When I accept the error message I get a runtime error 2115 saying that the database engine is being prevented form saving the data to the table.
Can anyone offer some help as to my problem here?
The code:
Private Sub txtbx_Date_Closed_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
'Declaring the variables
Dim Completed As String
Dim Closed As String
'Assigning values to the variables
Completed = "txtbx_Date_Completed"
Closed = "txtbx_Date Closed"
'Checking to see if there is no completed date
If IsNull(Completed) Then
MsgBox "The action must be completed prior to being closed"
Me![txtbx_Date_Closed] = Null
Exit Sub
'Validating the closing date
ElseIf Closed < Completed Then
MsgBox "The closing date cannot be before completion date"
Me![txtbx_Date Closed] = Null
Exit Sub
End If
End Sub
Validating field from a query. I have a table with a field that has a value number that I need to validate that that number exist in another table in a field
Table1.field1 Number
Table2.field1 number
So let's say a have in table2.field1 the list 1 2 3 4 5 8
In table1.field1 I need to validate that the number I enter is present in table2.field1 so 1 would be ok but 6 invalid and it can't be a from list statement because I need the person to enter a number and get no error or get invalid number.
I have two tables with dates. Between (!) every two following dates in table1, I want to know the number of dates in table2. How do I write an SQL query for this? The tables I have are up to a few hundred records in table 1 and a few thousand records in table2. So to prevent that this takes hours I need a fast query.
To explain the query I need, for example:
table1
01/01/2014
15/01/2014
17/01/2014
30/01/2014
table2
01/01/2014
02/01/2014
05/01/2014
17/01/2014
18/01/2014
20/01/2014
21/01/2014
25/01/2014
So the answer of the query would be 2,0,4.
Explanation:
Between 01/01/2014 and 15/01/2014 in table 1 there are 2 dates in table2 (01/01/2014 is not included between the dates)
Between 15/01/2014 and 17/01/2014 in table 1 there are 0 dates in table 2
Between 17/01/2014 and 30/01/2014 in table 1 there are 4 dates in table 2

I am creating a database and I need to know figures at the end of each week on staff performance.
How will I do this as I have to report to my bosses at the end of each week what targets have been hit.
The trouble I am having is generating this date at the start of each week, the figures have to stay on the system so I would require a new column of information at the beggining of each week. Can this be done as I am really struggling or am I asking to much from access, I am a begginer with a small amount of knowledge and I am using 2003 access
Thanks for any help and I hope you underdstand what I am trying to do
I have a form that creates quotes for my company by inputting inventory items in a continuous subform. I need to be able to check and see if the item already exists in the inventory or if it is a new one that has been manually entered, and have this toggle a bound yes/no field that I will use to control whether or not some fields on the form are locked. Here is the code I have been using, but it doesn't seem to work at all.
Private Sub Combo14_AfterUpdate()
Dim itemcheck As Integer
itemcheck = DCount("[Item]", "tbItems", "[Item] = " & Chr(34) & Me![Item] & Chr(34))
If itemcheck = "0" Then
Me![Locked] = False
Else
Me![Locked] = True
End If
End Sub
I would appreciate anyone's feedback on this.

I have 2 tables. One has a single column that contains week starting dates for 18 months. The other table has a customer, start date, end date and hours worked fields. I want to create a table that shows by week starting in table 1 the customer and number of hours worked each week divided by the number of weeks specified by the date range in table 2. The dates used in table two match those in table 1.

I have two tables:
Table 1
Table 2
There is a one to many relationship here.
One in table 1 and many in table 2.
When I add in a record in table 1, I need a validation script/key that won't allow adding a record to table 1 without a corresponding record in table two.
Please help. I'm really stuck. I am doing this through a form. I tried messing around with the "requirements" but had no luck.
I need to validate a surname field which obviously can only consist of letters and occasionally spaces and/or hyphens. (i.e. van Driel or Johnson-Crooks)I managed to create a validation rule which would allow me to have space in the surname field:Is Null Or Not Like "*[!((a-z) or ( ))]*"but when I tried to allow hyphens into the field - I used these codes - but none of them worked:Is Null Or Not Like "*[!((a-z) or ( ) or (-))]*"Is Null Or Not Like "*[!(a-z)]*" Or Not Like (" ") Or Not Like ("-")Is Null Or Not Like "*[!(a-z)]*" Or Not Like "*[!( )]*" Or Not Like "*[!(-)]*"Is Null Or Not Like "*[!(a-z)]*" Or Like "*[!( )]*" Or Like "*[!(-)]*"Is Null Or Not Like "*[!(a-z)]*" Or Not Like "*[( )]*" Or Not Like "*[(-)]*"Is Null or Not Like "*[!(a-z)]*" or (in ("-"," "))Is Null Or Not Like "*[!(a-z)]*" And (Not In ("*[0-9]*"))Is Null Or Not Like "*[!(a-z)]*" And (Not In ("*[0-9]*")) And (In ("-"," "))Is Null Or Not Like "*[!(a-z)]*" Or Like ( ) Or (-)Please can smeone help me.James

I'm having a problem with a query. I am pulling information from a table that holds demographic info plus some company info. the data in question is the deptno of an employee. This employee also has a jobcode associated with it. I have another table with a list of a few jobcodes.
The data I will retrieve is fname, lname and deptno. If a person is in detno 210 then I want to check his jobcode in the jobcode table. If it is in the table then I want it to return 215 for a deptno. If not then it will return 210.
Does anyone know how this query would look like?
Thanks in advance.
I have taken over a database that has be modified by a number of people over time. I have a forw with tab controls and a some of the fields are critical to be completed before you should be able to progress to the next tab. There are currently validation controls on the controls on the first tab, but if you only complete the first of these controls it is possible to move on to the second tab. The third tab is a subform and and if you try and select this tab, the validation text appears, but you can still switch to that tab which I want to prevent.
Finally, I have deleted one of the controls which was a critical field for completeion. I had assumed the validation was based on the validation on the control and would therefore be deleted but I still get a message saying complete this. I can't work out where there miight be code to make this happen? I'm not sure if anyone can help me with this without seeing the database, but I just wondered if anyone had any ideas what to even look for to help me understand this.
Sorry if all this is a bit vague, but would really grateful if anyone can help me at all.
Question I am looking at some annoying Access database for a charity and got stuck on trying to make something work that they believe used to
Two Tables
Venues
pK Venue ID
Venue Name
Venue Capacity
Booking
pK
Venue
Name
Addr1
Addr2
Addr3
Ect
They have a query call capacity check which does the following
Count Occurrences of Venues then takes this away from venue capacity
Essentially they have a standard access form of the Booking table with a drop down box and want it to only validate if seats are still free at a venue eg if the current count for venue is less than the venue capacity.
Any ideas ?
Hi all
Im currently trying to set validation rules for a form using VBA, does anyone know of a good method of doing this as i'm a bit stuck:confused:
I have a NEW INVOICE button, and the code behind says
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec
Now if a user clicks on this buttons 3 times, three blank records get inserted in the table. THis is because I am generating teh invoice number myself, and the invoice_date is defaulted to current date (DATE())
The script written in the Sub Form_BeforeUpdate event to validate if the invoice is empty, if the total is ZERO etc. is all skipped, and I get blank records in the table. I even tried to place breakpoints in the before updates script, but it does not even come inside.
What is the right way to trap data errors, blank records in this situation?
Please help.
Thanks,
Vinai
Hey,
I've been looking at this website (http://learning.north.londonmet.ac.uk/ib212/week7/validation.htm) and i'm trying to find an input mask that lets a user enter in an I.P. address like the IP settings in Network Connection > Properties > TCP/IP > Properties.
E.g. a user enters 19216802. I want this converted to 192.168.0.2 without the user having to enter any '.'
So far this is the closest i've gotten to validating the field
0##.0##.0##.0## whereas 0 means something has to be entered and the # are optional.
Thanks,
Barret
Hey,
In a form I am trying to complete, I want the user to be able to enter in an IP address like so
192168<user hits space bar>0<user hits space bar>1
Would convert to - 192.168.0.1
Is there an input mask which allows this to happen?
Thanks.
The database I'm working on is used for personnel budget projections. Because some employees are hired mid-year, I need to be able to use various dates in my projection calculations.
I have 3 different tables - one with the employee start date, the other with the fiscal year start date, and the last with the start date of certain special pay tables. In order for my projections to work correctly, I'll need to return in a query the minimum of these 3 dates. I know how to do a minimum value in a single field within a table, but don't know how to select a minimum from multiple values in multiple tables. Is this possible.:rolleyes:
I am trying to design a report that will Give information about down time and work time during the day.
I have three tables that I am trying to query:
TimeSheet - Employee name, date, etc.TimeSheetSub - Times worked (related to TimeSheet)Orders - Including Start and Complete dates and timesI want to find out on TimeSheet.Date Between TimeSheetSub.Arrived And TimeSheetSub.Departed how many minutes were worked on an order and how many many were not (Orders.Start And Orders.Complete).
When I try to combine these three tables in a query, though, it either ends with tons of records or doesn't work because the tables are unrelated. I was able to do it by making a subquery for the Orders part, but this will not work to make a report.
Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated!

Philip

What would the validation rules be between two dates:
>01/09/07 however <01/09/11
and also
>01/09/07 however <present day
I'm creating a database and wanted to set up my table.
It is for a service with clients where we need to carry out a review every 6 months, so I need to create a way of entering a date every time a review is completed, then ideally a field that automatically totals the number of reviews that have taken place, and another field that automatically generates the date of the next review due - based on 6 months after the last review date.
Is that possible? It seems silly to keep adding fields for potential reviews as most will only have between 1-3 but in theory it could be as many as 20, which would be a lot of wasted space and fields for most people!
I am very new with access database. Want to create table with Dates & DayName. For example, tblYear2015 with all dates from 1-Jan-2015 to 31-Dec-2015 in FirstColumn and DayName in second column as per date of First Column. DayName Should be entered automatically as per date entered in first column.
