I'm using Access 2003 connecting through ODBC. I'm trying to set up an automated query to grab today's data. normally it's pretty easy, all you'd have to do is enter date() in the criteria in an access query. Unfortunately, the date in my database (i can't change this) is in an odd format.
example: april 1st, 2013 = 1130401
Every single date always has that preceding "1" in front of it, then the year, then the month, and finally the day.
I want to always specify the current date whenever the query is run (without having to type it in)
I have written my very first database in Access 2003 but it tells me that it has been saved in Access 2000 Format.
My questions are:
1. Why has it done this?
2. Can I change it 2002 or 2003 format?
I have recently installed access 2003 w/access 97 installed both are on my hard drive. When I create a new db in access 2003 it saves it in an access 2000 format. Does any one know why it does this?
Thanks--Appreciate any help

Hi,This is my first post here... I hope I am not asking a really stupid question. :)Basically I need to cleanly export an Access 2003 database to a TAB-delimited file... The database in question has 1406 rows and several columns... some cells have nothing in them -- this is a "contacts" database.Long story short, I need to export-out as TAB-delimited (or comma)... I have done this, but when I view my results in Excel, it looks like some things are messed-up... I think there are some tabs hiding around the database that I am not aware of.Any tips on cleaning-up my database for export to CSV (tab/comma)?Also, I have one field that is a dropdown list... When I export it out as CSV/TXT I only get a number and not the actual value of the chosen drop-down... Is this normal? How do I get the actual value and not just the number?Basically, I would like to just normalize this database and get it into a perfect-looking CSV/TXT TAB/Comma delimited file. :)I would be willing to pay for this help... I do not have much cash, but I really want to make sure I get this done right the first time.Many TIA's!Cheers,M

When I install the same system on a Windows 7 system, my login screen launches, the user is able to enter in their name and password. Then nothing happens. What is supposed to happen is a form opens up after the password is entered that applies security written in code based on the user.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a database that gets updated twice per week. Using ASP, I am "publishing" this database to our company website to enable anyone within the company (here or aboad) to see the status of various tests. The problem I am having is: I am trying to get only "active" tests to show up (which I have working correctly) or tests that have been stopped or completed within the past 5 days. I have tried using: DateAdd("d",-5,Now()), DateAdd("d",-5,Date()), and neither have worked. Any suggestions on how to get this to work? I can't use a specific date to subtract from, because it may be a few days between the time I update and the time everyone has seen it.
View 9 Replies View RelatedHi all and a happy new year,
I am getting more and more infuriated with dates and access. I thought I had it all working, and now I get to 01/01/2008 and it all falls apart. Anyway,
I have a lump of ASP that finds various dates and queries them against an Access DB. I have used response.write to see what is being sent to the database, and they are in UK format DD/MM/YYYY as they should be. The field in my DB stores the dates as DD/MM/YYYY. Now for the bit that is driving me mad.
Somewhere in access, US format is being used. For instance, I have a date value that finds tomorrows date. In this case its 02/01/2008 for the 2nd of January 2008. When I enter the SQL in access though, no data is brought back. If I query on date equalling 01/02/2008 then data is brought back!
So, my program is outputting UK format, the dates are stored in UK format, my regional settings and everything else on my computer are UK format. Access is trying to find US format though-why?
Its driving me mad!
Hi,
I have an access database which has a date field. I've entered all of the dates in valid UK format (dd/mm/yyyy). An example of the table looks like this:
Id| SeminarName | SeminarDate
1 | Introduction | 18/02/2006
2 | Other stuff | 19/02/2006
When I do:
SELECT * FROM tblSeminar WHERE SeminarDate=#18/02/2006#;
It doesn't return any records. If I remove the WHERE SeminarDate... it works fine, likewise if I use:
SELECT * FROM tblSeminar WHERE SeminarDate=#02/18/2006#;
So something is causing the date not to match.
I'm using <%Session.lcid = 2057%> at the top of all of my pages, and am hoping to keep all formatting in UK dd/mm/yyyy format.
Can anyone help here?? Thanks very much...
I have converted an old database to Access 2007 and find I need to edit my queries that use the date format function.
eg change from Format([date],'yyyy') to Year(date)
I can change each query manually but is there a quicker way to do this?
I am having a problem with the date function in access 2010. The default format is Date/Time "General" but the sample on the right side just shows a number (17). The field goes blank on any date I enter. I have to manually format the date field with mm/dd/yy to show the dates in the date field. I don't always have to manually format the date. The long and medium dates are the only two from the drop down list that show dates properly.
View 3 Replies View RelatedIn VBA, how to compare date variable with date/time field from table, as when defined the data type in table, date/time option is the only choice for date data type even though I don't want the time portion.
View 13 Replies View RelatedI have attached a sample database. Basically I want to have some lines of code that generate the result table, which is tbl_readmit_result.
As you can see, the difference is the addition of a new column called re_admit_status.
Rule is:
Status = "y" when the admission date, compared to the previous discharge is less than 7 days, otherwise "n", for the same pt_id. You cannot compare the two dates on different pt_ids.
Is there a way that this can be done automatically without having to go through the record manually?
Lads,
Here's a little problem that is driving me nuts. I know what is wrong and yet I can't fix it!
I have an Access D/B and a mail merge word doc which gets its data from a table in the database. Now the date is in the correct format in the table i.e. uk/european format. The 5 of january 2005 would be 05/01/2005.
However when this gets into the word doc it changes to USA format i.e. 01/05/2005.
Not very desireable! how do I fix it?
Thanks in advance,
Liam
I've written a vba macro that takes data from Excel, processes it into an XML file & then imports into Access.All fields were fine apart from the date field, which appeared in the Access table as "00:00:00"...The date in the XML was appearing as 01/01/2014.
Code:
dateTemp = [date here]
xmlFieldElement.Text = Year(dateTemp) & "-" & Format(Month(dateTemp), "00") & "-" & Format(Day(dateTemp), "00") & "T00:00:00"
This produces 2014-01-01T00:00:00...Note, putting the date into reverse order without the formatting also causes the import to result in 00:00:00
Hello , I have a date format problem , I have an access database which when run by a macro, gives me a date format of 05-AUg-05( data type is text)and the same applies when it 's exported toexcel , it appears as 05-Aug-05. But , when exported to excel i need it in the format 05/08/05.
What should i do for this ?
I think the problem is ,When I run a macro i think the date field is automatically assigned to text , what should i do so tht when it runs a macro it should be in date/time type ?
Thanks for the help in advance .
I am importing data that has been put onto Notepad into an Access table - this works fine except the date in notepad comes across as a date and a time. When I put the table into a query and ask for the date to be Between [Specify date 1] and [Specify date 2] - does the user have to then put 7/02/2005 00:00:00 AM and xxx. I have tried this but it doesn't return all values. I have also tried just the dates but this doesn't return all values either - any ideas?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI 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?

I have a list of dates in the mm/dd/yyyy format and I am looking to get it into the fiscal format of yyyyww. I am able to do this with the datepart and format functions, but I need to make it so that the fiscal month begins in January but the first week starts if there are three or more days in the week. For instance if Jan 1st is a Friday then this stands as the first fiscal week, if it is a Saturday then it does not count as the first week.
datepart and format functions have the Use the first week in the year that has at least 4 days for the firstweekofyear option but I need it where it has at least three to make it work.
hi guys/gals!

what i nid is the query showing date and time where time is between 8-530 and date is between (user-defned). it counts how many instances in the datebase occurs during the set date between the said hours.
ex.
date time(8-530)
1/1/2004 30
field name used was [start time] where start time is a date/time data type
ex.
start time
9/20/2004 6:43:47PM

SELECT Calls.[Start Time], COUNT (Calls.[Start Time]) as Exp1
FROM Calls
WHERE Calls.[Start Time] Between [Date1] And [Date2] AND Calls.[Start Time] Between 8:00 AND 17:30
GROUP BY [Start Time];

I have a table with employee names and there start time and stop time for their shift. There is also a start time and stop time which they cant work during their shift. So I have shiftstarttime and shiftstoptime and codestarttime and codestop time. I have to create a table with the employee names and generate a time called outboundtime. This outboundtime starts at a specified time (e.g. 9am) and runs for a specified time (60mins). This outboundtime has to be within the range of the employees shift and cant be within the range of the cant work time. If it was, then it would start after the codestoptime for that employee.
I have been trying "if then statements" but I can't seem to compare a range of time to another range of time. Only a specified time to a range which is making things confusing.
Hi all,
I currently have two strings that look like this 070707 and 020709. What i need to do is compare these two dates and see which one is greater.
Is there any easy way to do this since the year is just yy instead of yyyy?
Thanks in advance
I don't know if anyone else has had this problem when changing from one year to the next, but I haven't found any postings regarding date compare issues. I have a two-fold problem:
1. I have a combo box that lists available dates from a table in Descending order so the most recent date is on top. This worked in the last half of 2006, but when the year changed it is now listing the 2007 dates at the bottom of the list. The field is a Short Date in mm/dd/yyyy format. How do I list them in descending order (01/02/2007, 01/01/2007, 12/31/2006, 12/30/2006...)?
2. The user can also type a date in this field to enter a new record that isn't in the table, but I have After_Update code that also compares the date entered with today's date and gives a message if they enter a future date. This also worked in 2006, but now it is populating the future date message if they enter a date in the past. Here is part of the code:
'*****************************************
Private Sub cmbDate_AfterUpdate()
Dim strDate As String
Dim intResponse As Integer
strToday = Date
If IsNull(cmbDate) Or Len(cmbDate.Value) < 1 Then
MsgBox "Please select or enter a valid date."
cmbDate.SetFocus
Exit Sub
Else
strDate = cmbDate.Value
End If
If strDate > strToday Then
intResponse = MsgBox("You entered a future date. Do you want to continue with this date?", vbYesNo)
If intResponse = vbNo Then
cmbDate.Value = Date
Exit Sub
End If
End If
'**********************************************
I would appreciate any advise.
