Hi there,
I have used Calendar controls before but this is a new one on me?!
When i click on the Calendar, what i am doing is inserting the date clicked into a textbox on another form.
The Calendar is set to todays date the system date is also correct and although i click on 31/05/06, what is being inserted is 31/05/20 ?????
Any ideas, because i dont?
Thanks in advance
I've looked and looked and am afraid that I didn't find this because it's not possible...
The forms in my db are not the clearest, but one way of simplifying it for the users is to have them click on the calendar icon and then have a few fields automatically populate with the selected date's month, another with the year, and another with the day of the week.
Is this possible? I figured out how to have a field populated with the date, but with all of the specific queries needed, I have to do it this way...
Any thoughts? Also, is it at all possible (this is totally separate) to have an icon on the desktop that brings up a login sheet for which the entry users only see the front end, but the db admins log in and see the back end?
Thanks in advance!!

I am using the following control source for a text box on a report: =nz([Raw_Turb], "---")When I do, it pulls data from a different field from the data source. I am pulling the data directly from the data table. I have tried creating a query and get similar results only from a different data field!I have tried the same control source on a different report and it works correctly! Why does it not work on the current report?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am using Access 2003. I have a form with two text fields that I have configured as "Short Date". I set up Calendar Control as a new popup form (frm_Calendar) and set up the date fields to popup the Calendar on double click. I have 2 problems.
1. The calendar does not want to default to today's date. I tried entering "=Date()" into the "Value" field of Calendar Control, but it removes that code after I click off of it. So how can I get Calendar Control to default to today's date?
2. When I double click on a calendar date, I want that date to be posted into the date field. How do I get it to do that? I looked at all the properties, but did not see a way to tell the date field to accept the calendar entry.
Thanks for your help.

I have a form with a TAB control and four pages. Each control of each page has his TAB index set correctly (starting from 0 to n), some of controls are not enabled to be tabbed. The form's cycle is set on "Current page".
I have two kind of problems.
First: I am on the last control of the page, pressing TAB key the focus gets invisible. Press TAB key again and the focus moves on the first page's control. For each page happens this behaviour.
Second: clicking randomly on the TAB pages the focus is not always on the control with TAB index 0, but usually on the last.
I have read that clicking on a new page the focus should be automatically on the first control, but this does not happen in my experience.
I want to use the calendar control on a form, but cannot find a way to 'minimise' it when it is not needed. I feel sure that there is a way to do this. Can anyone help?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI am creating an employee scheduling application to use for ambulances. In one form, I am trying to list those scheduled to the various shifts by date so that we can edit an individual day.
I firstly, want to open the form with the today's date and the employees accordingly. I am using the following code in the form_Current(), the form_GotFocus(), form_load(), and form_Open(Cancel as Integer) subs.
ctlCalendar.Value = Date
I cannot get it to display to today's date.
I am then wanting to pass the date to the query which selects the employees that are working each duty position. When the form opens it opens the oldest record, not today's. I think that there's a problem with the WHERE portion of my SQL statement.
When a user selects a date on the Calendar Control, I want to re-run the query and display the employee's scheduled to work on the selected date.
Any ideas?
I have a form with calendar control 11.0 placed on it.
When the form opens, the calendar is invisible.
When the cursor enters a field called ClassDate the calendar (calClassCalendar) becomes visible.
When the user clicks a date on the calendar control I want that date to appear in in the ClassDate field.
I would have expected the Calendar Control to have an OnClick Event Property that would have allowed something like
ClassDate.value=calClassCalendar.val
To my complete dismay there is NO OnClick event on the Calendar Control.
How to I get the Calendar Control's date to display in the ClassDate field?
Thanks for the help.

Hi,
I have a form that has 2 Calendar Controls that is used to select a Start Date and an End Date. I then have some code that will enter all the dates inbetween into the database.
One thing I would like to have on the form, is when the users selects a date from each calendar. The date is displayed in a text box under it. Just to have a visual double check to make sure they selected the right month/day/year before they hit the submit button.
Anyone know what code I would need to put in my form to make it do this?
Thanks
Chris.
Please can someone advise me how I can link the date which I select in the calendar control to a date field in the form. I want to use the calendar instead of a combo box.
It's probably simple....but then so am I!
Help appreciated
Richard
I would like the calendar control to default to the current month and year (if there is no date in the control source). I don't want to set it to the current date.
I've tried:
Month([CalendarOut].Value) = Month(Date)
but that doesn't seem to work.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Hi
I'm recently added the CalendarControl 9.0 into some combo boxes in order to quickly input dates - however only the dates are then added, not the day of the week. The day of the week would be really useful if it was visible as the form is outputted to a HTML page for our intranet for other staff to see.
My (relevant) code at the moment is as follows:
-------------------------------------------------
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Dim cboOriginator As ComboBox
Private Sub cboStartDate_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
Set cboOriginator = cboStartDate
ocxCalendar.Visible = True
ocxCalendar.SetFocus
If Not IsNull(cboOriginator) Then
ocxCalendar.Value = cboOriginator.Value
Else
ocxCalendar.Value = Date
End If
End Sub
Private Sub cboEndDate_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
Set cboOriginator = cboEndDate
ocxCalendar.Visible = True
ocxCalendar.SetFocus
If Not IsNull(cboOriginator) Then
ocxCalendar.Value = cboOriginator.Value
Else
ocxCalendar.Value = Date
End If
End Sub
Private Sub Form_Load()
ocxCalendar.Visible = False
End Sub
Private Sub ocxCalendar_Click()
cboOriginator.Value = ocxCalendar.Value
cboOriginator.SetFocus
ocxCalendar.Visible = False
Set cboOriginator = Nothing
End Sub
-------------------------------------------
Any help and ideas much appreciated!
Hi,
I'm using the Microsoft Calendar Control 11 to populate a date field on a form. The date field has a format of "Medium". When I use the control, I select todays date and what gets populated is 30/12/1899. But...if I immediately go back to the Calendar control and select todays date, then the proper value gets added.
This happens for every NEW record I create. What is happening??
I have been using a calendar control on a subform and have now split the data into a tabbed form with 4 subforms. The calendar is now entering the date selected into the first record of each subform instead of just the one on the subform that has the focus.
Do I need to add the calendar control to each subform now or is there a way to reference the correct form in my current code?
Private Sub Calendar_Click()
' Enters the selected date into the DateCompleted field
Forms![Training]![ElectiveTrainingSub].Form.[Date].Value = Me.Calendar.Value
Forms![Training]![CorpReqSubform].Form.[Date].Value = Me.Calendar.Value
Forms![Training]![XOGReqSub].Form.[Date].Value = Me.Calendar.Value
Forms![Training]![Recommended Training].Form.[Date].Value = Me.Calendar.Value
I have tried If Me!TabCtl159 = Me.Page160 (first tab) Then
'enter date into that record
with no luck
Any ideas would be appreciated as always!
Thanks,
Toni

I have attached a condensed copy of my form/sub-form that has calendar controls on it for the RecvdDt and the Compliance date. I have it set up the say way as I have on other databases and it will not close/populate once opened. I have reset the events on it multiple times and I just can't get it to go.
Can anyone please take a quick look and help me determine why it is not working on this form yet works on others that I have.
Thanks.
Hi
I am trying miserably to help a student use the Calendar Control to Open and Go to a specific record
I want to click on a specific date in the calendar in a form eg 09/03/06 and then open the "Bookings" form and go to the record with the field "Date" with the value 09/03/06
I can open the form lol
Can anyone help??
Thanks

I am trying to use an unbound subform based on a query to display only records for a specific date. The query works fine on its own, but the subform returns a blank.
I am using the Calendar control on the same form for the user to select the date they wish to view. This in turn inserts the selected date from the calendar into a textbox on the main form and the query that the subform is based on reads this and opens the corresponding records.
Problem, its not working.
Thank you in advance if you can help me throw some light on this one.
I can't figure out how to further explain what i needed to do. I hope the attached file could solve my issue.
Thanks for your time!

I want to be able to click on the date in a calendar control and the jobs scheduled for that day appear on the screen. Is this possible and how would I go about this. I created a query to pull the information I need and I attached that query to a form, I then placed the calendar control the form but I am unable to get the control to pull the data.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am editing a database that provides the option of creating custom reports, where the user can input a date range of their choice and receive aggregate data for that time frame. Although all of the numbers in the report are correct, I am having trouble with a chart that I inserted into the report.
Specifically, if the date range requested spans 2 calendar years (i.e. April 2014 through January 2015), the data for January 2015 appears at the beginning of the year (so the chart x-axis is for Jan through Dec, and the Jan 2015 data is showing up in Jan (as if it was 2014, not the end of the given range in 2015). When I try with smaller time frames within a calendar year, it adjusts just fine (i.e. shrinking the window so just March-May is displayed on the graph).
How to adjust the axis so that it properly records the data range- so that it would start the axis with April and end in January, for example?
Hi All. I have a query that is based on 1 table. I am using a form with a calendar control for the users to select the date range. In my table the date format is mm/dd/yyyy. My calendar control is pulling the date format mm/dd/yyyy I need my query to only look at the mm/dd part of the field. In my criteria field inc_date I have Between [Forms]![frm_LookUpEnquiry]![txtSelectDate] And [Forms]![frm_LookUpEnquiry]![txtDate2] I have tried the datepart but Im not sure I am doing it right. Basicly Im not sure how to parse out the date to only look at the mm/dd. Or would this be better done in a SQL query Any Idea's for this would be very appreciated. Im kinda in a bind on this one and its the last thing I have to do to finish this database.
Thanks for all you assitance in advance
Hi All,
I'm in the process of creating a database that allows users to enter details into a form which includes a date range as start and end dates.
I have used the inbuilt Calendar Control 10.0 control to allow users to select the date. It is linked to two combo boxes [cmbStartDate] and [cmbEndDate] using the following code (this code is repeated for each combo box):
Code:
Private Sub cmbStartDate_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
Set cmbOriginator = cmbStartDate
ocxCalendar.Visible = True
ocxCalendar.SetFocus
If Not IsNull(cmbStartDate) Then
ocxCalendar.Value = cmbStartDate.Value
Else
ocxCalendar.Value = Date
End If
End Sub
And..
Private Sub ocxCalendar_Click()
''Update the ComboBox with the value entered into the ComboBox
''Put the value back into the relevant ComboBox
cmbOriginator.Value = ocxCalendar.Value
''Hide the calendar
cmbOriginator.SetFocus
ocxCalendar.Visible = False
''Clear the variable
Set cmbOriginator = Nothing
End Sub
This all seems to work fine- however, when I try to write the selected dates to a table or use them in a query they are not recognised (the form obviously needs to be open whilst the query runs), but if I manually type dates into these combo boxes these dates are picked up fine.
This is beginning to drive me mad so any help would be greatly appreciated.

I want the calendar to show the date in the field [Next Payment Due] - whenever this value changes, the calendar date should change accordingly.
I want the calendar to be assigned to a text box (txtCalDate), so this would also contain the date of [Next Payment Due].
However, If the calendar date is changed (on the calendar), I want txtCalDate to show this date, but [Next Payment Due] to stay as it's original value. Next Payment Due can only change the value, but not be changed itself.
So I presume VBA would be needed to say when [Next Payment Due] is changed, make calendar this date. And then to simply assign the calendar to txtCalDate so if calendar is changed, this will change with the new date.
I have a database where all reports are by month. I want a simple way to allow the user to select the month/year and want to know if I can use the header portion of the calandar control for this (although I can't seem to figure that out). The alternative is to use two combo boxes (Month and Year) and in a hidden text box I concatenate them into a date since that is how the report query reads the month (using datediff). I would prefer the calandar control because it is more visually pleasing. If anyone has any ideas or suggestions please !
View 1 Replies View RelatedOn the form I need to give the user the option to select a 'from date' and 'to date' and for this I have put in 2 calender controls which have the same control source(same table column). The problem I am facing is when I select a date from one calendar, the other calendar control automatically populates with the same date and vice versa.
I need to have a functionality where 2 different date can be selected and then when the Search button is clicked, then data within the date ranges should be displayed.
what changes I need to make to acomplish this ? find a screenshot of the form attached.
