Hello All,
I need alittle help in finding out the difference between 2 dates within a work week (meaning Mon-Fri also excluding holidays) It would be simular to the Networkdays formula in excel. I was able to calculate the difference between 2 days in the query by using:
Expr1: DateDiff("d",[Act Del],[Orig Entry Date])
However, I need to exclude Weekends and Holidays. Is this possible?
Thanks
i would like to querry a date which only showing work week and year... i try in FORMAT([MYDATE], 'WW YYYY', 1, 2)... it work but when go to 31/12/2006 it showing "01 2006"... but suppose it should show "01 2007" how can i overcome this?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI got a problem regarding query work week in database.
The database contain data of year 2006 and 2007. When i query about work week, some record is missing.
i wrote the sql statement as
SELECT * FROM TBL WHERE FORMAT(MYDATE, 'WW', 1, 2) = 1 AND YEAR(2007);
There is one record missing... which is 31/12/2006 record.
So any idea to eliminate this??
I've got three fields - date_time, # of issues, issue reasons
I want to summarize these by work week.
So,
WW....... # of issues ...............................issue reasons
1 ..........<sum of all issues for the week>..list of all reasons entered
2 ..........<sum of all issues for the week>..list of all reasons entered
3 ..........<sum of all issues for the week>..list of all reasons entered
4 ..........<sum of all issues for the week>..list of all reasons entered
5 ..........<sum of all issues for the week>..list of all reasons entered
I know how to get the WW part - I do the datepart("ww",[Date_Time] for the expression. But how to write the query to do the other 2 parts, I'm lost.
I created a database for an organization I volunteer for but I am running into design problems. I want the database to be able to assign preferred days of the week (that the volunteers want to serve) with the flexibility to change them.
The problem is in order to be able to keep my reporting options flexible. I will have to write a record (on a separate table) for each volunteer for every day they want to serve. A one to many relationship between the volunteer table and preferred days table.
I've created a report based on a query that shows me the jobs that have been added to tblJobs between two selected dates.
The report works fine and displays all the information I need, however other than being sorted by day of the week i.e. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday etc. The records just run on one after another.
I want to create a page break, so that a full week is shown on a single page before then forcing a new page when it moves in to the next week.
I have solved the problems getting values on the subform. I have not in getting values on the subform.For instance, on the one titled phone use the formula in the tutorial is:
=[sbfCustomerRoomUse].[Form]![txtTotalPhoneUse]
#Error results when the doc is put into a form mode.
Now when I input each value in the equation above separately.I still get no entry.
For " = sbfCustomerRoomUse" , I get #Error;
and for "= txtTotalPhoneUse", I get #Name.
CustomerRoomUse and txtTotalPhoneuse are from the subform that was dropped into the customer form in a previous step. It shows that explicitly when designed sbfCustomerRoomUse on the main that CustomerRoomUse come from a subform. This does not seem to need to be done with txtTotalPhoneuse, and I am not sure why. Neither one gives me a desired calculation result.
I have a query that groups records by date into week numbers using the following expression.
WeekNumber: DatePart("ww",[Date],2)
I would prefer to display the result as the week commencing Monday date.
How?
I have an odd problem that has stumped me for several days. I'm working on a form that contains a chart. The chart is based on a query, which is based on another query, which is based on a table. In the top query, I need to put some calculated fields that operate on other fields. But when I try to multiply two fields together, I get Null. I'm pretty confident that the fields I'm operating on are numerical.
The fields of the query should be:
MaxOfEverInSchool
MaxOfSurvivalToGrade
MaxOfEverInSchool
With these being the calculated fields:
MaxOfSurvivalToGradeCum: MaxOfEverInSchool*MaxOfSurvivalToGrade/100
MaxOfCanReadCum: MaxOfEverInSchool*MaxOfSurvivalToGrade*MaxOfCanRea dCum/10000
Any insight would be greatly appreciated--I just can't understand why Access would suddenly refuse to do math.
I have the following expression which works nicely to group all of my dates into their respective weeks of the year, by week dates beginning Mondays:
WeekStart: ([MyDateField]+1)-DatePart("w",[MyDateField],2)
However, since the week beginning 12/26/05 crosses over both '05 and '06 (as week 53 and week 1), I get two groups of dates recorded for the week of 12/26/05 when I run my query.
Since my chart is based on weekly totals, I can't have two separate totals with the same 'week beginning' date.
How can I adjust my code to get one total group of dates for the week of 12/26/05?
Help greatly-needed!....
We are creating a simple database to maintain driver license information for faculty, staff, and students who use cars from the university’s motor pool.
To do this, I have created two tables: tblDRIVER and tblLICENSE.
The fields in tblDRIVER are:
pkfDriverIndex
strLastName
strFirstName
strInitial
strAddress1
strAddress2
strCity
strState
strZIP
datBirthDate
The fields in tblLICENSE are:
pkfUpdateIndex
fkfDriverIndex
datDateUpdated
strState
strLicNumber
datExpirationDate
ynViolations
ynActive
Information about the driver is stored in tblDRIVER and the driver’s license information is stored in tblLICENSE. Periodically, we run a report that identifies drivers whose licenses are due to expire within a certain number of days. All this works fine.
My problem is that I am trying to create a lookup form that will load from a data entry form that will permit the Motor Pool Clerk to look up a driver by name and review the licensing information (which appears as a subform).
All this sort of works- I am using a combo box (based on a query) to look up a driver’s last name (which it does) and to populate all the driver’s information on the look-up form (including license information in a subform). Currently, the combo box locates the driver (including the unique index, last, and first names), and populates the form with first and last name but the rest of the information is not displayed on the look up form. Worse still, sometimes one driver’s last name matches up with the first name of the next driver listed in the table! This seems to happen only if a look up is attempted more than once. What gives.
Thanks for the help.
I have an expression in one column of my query and It keeps returning a negative result and there are no negative numbers in the source data. Can anyone help. I just want to sum the sums the two IIf expressions, but its not working. Thanks
Other Qty: Sum(IIf([QSum]![ACCOUNT]=2 And [QSum]![ICUNIT]=95 And [QSum]![UNITS]="ITEM(S)",[QSum]![QUANT],Null)) Or Sum(IIf([QSum]![ACCOUNT]=2 And [QSum]![ICUNIT]=100 And [QSum]![UNITS]="ITEM(S)",[QSum]![QUANT],Null))
Hi ive made a query but instead of calculating the total at the end of each line I want it to add up the total quantity at the end.
For example:
ID Description Quantity
ID Description Quantity
ID Description Quantity
ID Description Quantity
ID Description Quantity
How do i get the query to add up all of those quantities?
I'm hoping this is a no brainer...I am a complete newbie and self taught so apologies for not knowing the correct techie terms!!
I have a db with products...
Each product has a price (to customer) and cost (to me the seller)
What I want to work out is the margin i.e. price minus cost divided by proce multiplied by 100 to give a margin in percentage terms.
The data is held in a table with a record per product with the price and cost..
I want to build in another fieled per record that calculates the margin...
Thanks very much
Jessica
(I would also like to be able to work out decreasing margins if I was to extend say a 10% or 20% discount to the customer but I guess I shoudl walk before I run!!)
Hi, I have a database and on one table I have dates stored for certain jobs. I was wondering if anyone knew how to automatically calculate an end date if the start date and duration is entered!
Do I use a certain query?
Hope you can help, Tobi :)
Hello all,
I'm after some advice. Access is not one of my strong points (even though I use it alot in work!)
Anyway, is it possible to create calculations in access similar to those in excel????
Ok I'm really new at using access so go easy on me. I am trying to write a database to keep 30 measurements of a part grouped by lot number and then calculate the standard deviation, mean and a few other calculations, however I am unsure about how to do the calculations in access.
I would like the database operator to be able to enter the data then print out a report per lot, with the entries and the calculated answers.
I'm just unsure where and how to do the calculations... any help or suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
Hi,
I've read plenty of advice warning against performing calculations in tables. What is the best way for me to achieve this.
I need to calculate the product of a number of fields.
Field1 * Field2 * Field3 * Field 4 = Value
Field1 and Field 2 change periodically
Field3 and Field4 change less frequently
I want to be able to perform filter queries using the resulting value
i.e return all items with a value greater than 100
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I'm trying to a create a report to list results for a running club based on series-to-date. To do this, I allocate points to the first 100 runners to cross the line in each race. The winner gets 100, second place 99, and so on with the 100th person getting 1.
In the database i have 1 table holding member details, then one table holding races. I also have a table linking the 2 called race_entry so i know what members have entered for which races. I have one other table called race_result that links the runner to a race and holds the position they finished in the race.
How could i use the data in the race results table to add up all the points they earned by looking at their finishing position in the races they run and then listing the points in order in a report.
I assumed it wouldnt be necessary to have a point field in the table as its deriveable.
Any help urgently needed!!!
This is more than likely simple for a lot of people out there but it has me stumped. I have a form that has a two combo boxes with dates in both ( so the user to pick from and to dates) now I am always going to be adding more dates as time progresses. I need the next form to add the info with the dates no mater what the user picks.
For example I am going to (once a week) be adding new info to the table.The end user is going to pick 06/24 (to indicate the end of the week) in both forms or 06/24 in the from box and 07/01 in the to box. In all situations I need the next form to add the data together.
Sorry for the long post but didn't know how to state it any simpler.
Hi everyone!
I am a beginner with Access and was wondering if someone would be so kind to give me some pointers
I have created a form where the user can select which dates they require a hotel for the evening. I was looking for some advice on how I can go about putting an area on the same form which calculates a sub price for the days they have selected. If I am not being clear then ask for more details.
Thanks

I would like to manipulate some date information. I have a start date field and an end date field and I would like to draw up a schedule for payment where the Acess takes the finished date and the start date to get total days appart then devides this by a value set by the operator. say If the operator wanted 6 paymes then my total days would be devided by 6 giving me the number of days to add on to the start date. Then with these dates a schedule is made up and the code I have tried looks something like this.
Dim valuation1 As Date
Dim valuation2 As Date
Dim valuation3 As Date
Dim valuation4 As Date
Dim valuation5 As Date
Dim valuation6 As Date
Dim valuation7 As Date
Dim valuation8 As Date
Dim valuation9 As Date
Dim valuation10 As Date
Dim valuation11 As Date
Dim valuation12 As Date
Dim startdate As Double
Dim findate As Double
Dim valcounter As Double
'retrieve start date and end date
startdate = CDbl(Me.Start_Date)
findate = CDbl(Me.Completion_Date)
'calculate evaluation periods
Dim valCount As Double
Dim valDays As Double
valCount = CDbl(Me.Valuation)
valDays = (startdate + ((findate - startdate) / valCount))
'Work on entering valuation dates
Do While valcounter < valCount
Select Case valcounter
Case "1"
Me.valuation1 = startdate
Case "2"
Me.valuation2 = startdate
Case "3"
Me.valuation3 = startdate
Case "4"
Me.valuation4 = startdate
Case "5"
Me.valuation5 = startdate
Case "6"
Me.valuation6 = startdate
Case "7"
Me.valuation7 = startdate
Case "8"
Me.valuation8 = startdate
Case "9"
Me.valuation9 = startdate
Case "10"
Me.valuation10 = startdate
Case "11"
Me.valuation11 = startdate
Case "12"
Me.valuation12 = startdate
End Select
valcounter = valcounter + 1
startdate = startdate + valDays
Loop
' this value is to test the interval period
Me.tdays = valDays
I am new to vb and so ths code is not going to be the best or anywhere near but any help would be great.

Hi Everyone:
I have a question that I can't seem to figure out. I am trying to create a form in which there are three major fields. 1) Value 1 2) Value 3) Sum of Value 1 & 2. I want it so that two fields are added up and then the sum, which will populate in the third field, will be stored in a table.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can do? I am fairly new to access and haven't had much luck finding anything on the net.
I appreciate any and all advice.
Thanks!
Darin
I have a form that includes two basic fields
1. USDateandTimeStarted
2. USDateandTimeFinished.
The fields include both date and time (date and time are in the same field) i.e. “6/26/2006 4:23pm”. The next field I need to calculate the duration, basically one field minus another…anything I’ve tried will only calculate the time difference will not factor in the days. For example, if it has been 52 hours (2 days, 4 hours) it will only say 4 hours. A few of what I’ve already tried are below. And I’ve also tried an elapsed time expression.
Can anyone provide any guidance.. ? Thanks!
=[USdateandtimestarted]-[USdateandtimefinished]
=DateDiff("n",USDateandtimestarted,USdateandtimefinished)
