Year Only -haw Hard Can This Be!!!

Aug 24, 2006

I want a field in a table that is a date but that is the year only.
I only want this because I want to be able to filter my charts to show one or a span of years for comparison. I have criteria in a query that states between [forms].[charts].[begin] and [forms].[charts].[end] and the corresponding form that my user puts the desired begginning and ending dates into before pressing buttons that bring up the charts based on the query.

My problem is that I can't even get the table to take a year only date. If I leave the date field as text the between clause in the query won't work. I tried it as a number with >= etc. and that didn't work either.

How hard can something this simple be?

Please help me oh cyberspace wizards.

HELP: Changing Dates To FY (fiscal Year) And YTD (year-to-date) Values

Apr 25, 2006

I have a huge table with transaction dates. I need to slice and dice
this data (sum, %'s, etc), but group by FY. Our fiscal year is from
7/1 thru 6/1.

For example:
1/8/2004 = FY 2004,
8/12/2004 = FY 2005,
2/3/2006 = FY 2006

THEN . . . . I need to also isolate certain periods, for example July-
March for YTD (year-to-date) analysis and compare YTD of 2006 with that
of 2005.

What do you suggest? Many thanks.

Sum Of Current Year Minus The Year Of A Date In Past?

Apr 25, 2014

I'm trying to add a couple of fields to the Contact database in Access 2010.

In the Contacts table, I created a field called "Sobriety Date" that has dates formatted like 12/27/1995

I am trying to add a calculated field called "Years Sober" which should be the current year minus the year in the 'Sobriety Date' field (1995 in the example above).

I have been trying to tweak this:

SUM(DatePart("yyyy",[Date]) - DatePart("yyyy",[Sobriety Date]))

but it's not working. Keeps giving me "The expression that you entered is not valid for web-compatible calculated columns"

Percentage Of Year Employed - Prior Year

Aug 1, 2005

I trying to figure out how to make this query work. I have a simple database that is being used to show employee employment information - name, hire date, salary, bonuses, etc. Everything is just about done but they want me to show what percentage of the prior year the employee was there. In other words if an employee was hired 4/20/2004 they want me to show the percentage of 2004 they were employed with the company. I've tried just about everything I can think of but nothing seems to give me the right answer. I am also showing the percentage for the current year (2005) and that works ok. Just can't figure out how the calculate it for a prior year.

This is being done in a query and we're using Access 2000.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Year And Date - Show Day Of Year As Three Numbers

Jan 10, 2012

I'm going to try using the year, day of year, hour & minute (24 hour clock) as a report number. It's set up in a field on a table. Right now I have....

Default Value =Format(Now(),"yyyhhnn") 'which works but not exactly how I would like

yy = Last two digits of the year
y = Number of the day of the year (1 to 366) 'can this show three digits all the time?
hh = Hour in two digits (00 to 23)
nn = Minute in two digits (00 to 59)

For instance, right now for Jan. 10th, 2012, 1306 hours the result would be 12101304 which, for all intents and purposes works, but I would prefer the "day of the year" to always be represented by three digits and not just when it hits day 100 of the year.

I would prefer to see 120101304

Too Hard For Me...Help

May 16, 2006

hi all,
I'm just beginning to know the world of Access so maybe the solution for my problem is pretty simple.
I have a huge database with Itemcodes, Costprice of materials and EffectiveDate (date on which new prices are valid). These dates represent past dates as well as future dates. The one that interests me the most is the most recent date in the past.
What I would need is a query that filters out the most recent date per itemcode because right now there are several prices with several validity dates. Eventually it should result in a database that shows an item with one validitydate and one price.
Right now the same itemcodes are repeated because different validitydates are related to it.
I really hope somebody can help me out on this.
Thanks in advance.

Hard For Me, Easy For You!

Jan 17, 2006

I really have got a mind block!

I am creating a small DB for a vast CD collection and have 3 related tables at present.

I want to have 1 table with the artists, but have it updated when I add a new artist on the main table/form.

So the form does not have the artist. I add that artist, and it is added to the artist table for future use.

Sure I can do this, but cant rememebr how. Please help :)

Need Help With Hard Query

Jul 8, 2005

My DB has a table named noldba.int_member_history, which contains the following fields:
member_id,
date_start,
date_end,
member_status,
iva_case_id,
case_id,

It is possible for the member to have several lines of data under their same member_id like this:

member_id date_start date_end member_status iva_case_id case_id

20125626 12/1/1990 2/31/1990 N 21116625 20002717C
20125626 1/1/1991 4/30/1992 A 62574431A 20002717C
20125626 5/1/1992 8/31/2000 N 20006625 20002717C
20125626 9/1/2000 12/31/9999 M 21116625 20002717C
20125626 8/1/2000 12/31/9999 M 20111832 20090698C

So this member had 4 start and end dates under case 20002717C
and only 1 start and end date under case 20090698C

I'm trying to write a query which is looking for member_id's along with a case_id which only has one member_status returned from the query and the
member_status must be M. In this case the member has two cases which have the M member_status, but case 20002717C has other types of member status so I would not want the query to return the 20002717C case, only the 20090698C
I'm sure Im asking for something that can't be done...but I'd never know unless I asked. Thanks

A REALLY Hard Query Question

Aug 12, 2005

Hi,

Currently I have one query that prompts the user for a beginning date, and end date of a week. It then proceeds to show the user all records in that time frame and makes a table. Now I need another query that looks at the dates the user had entered and gets all the records from the week before the user's dates. This query would also be a table query, but separate from the first one.

If anyone at all is able to help me out, I will be deeply impressed and eternally grateful! :)

Thanks,
Chris C.

Help With A Query... Hard To Explain

Mar 29, 2008

Hi all!, i would really appriciate it if you could help me out. I have this complex query... in one table i have dates and costs associated that show when fuel was put into the system

such as:
1/1/2008 -- $200
1/20/2008 - $100
1/25/2008 - $150

I then have another table that has data when fuel was taken out of the system
such as:
1/2/2008 -- ($50)
1/3/2008 -- ($20)
1/4/2008 -- ($10)

what i need is a query that is able to show a running tab on the fuel tank and how much fuel is in it...

so for example if it could spit out a result such as
1/1/2008 -- $200
1/2/2008 -- $150
1/3/2008 -- $130
1/4/2008 -- $120

If this is convoluted i can upload a little database..

Thanks! (Here is the current query i am using but its not working right.

SELECT DatePart("yyyy",[purchase_Date]) AS AYear, DatePart("m",[Purchase_Date]) AS AMonth, DatePart("d",[Purchase_Date]) AS ADay, DSum("gallons_purchased","purchase_fuel_tbl","DatePart('d', [purchase_Date])<=" & [ADay] & " And DatePart('m',

Hard Links In Split Database

Oct 11, 2004

I have a split database on the network, but I believe it contains hard links (i.e. H:path odb). So, if others use it, if they don't have their H drive mapped the same way I do, they'll get errors. How can I fix this so that it maps to the full path (i.e. \path odb)?

Saving To External Hard Drive

Sep 30, 2014

I've saved my Access files (as well as my Word files) to an external hard drive. I can open any Word doc from the hard drive, but when I try to open an Access file, it gives me the following error message: "can't find Language DLL msain.dll". What does that mean, and how can I fix it so that I can open an Access file from the hard drive?

Wireless Network Hard-drive Back-End

Mar 18, 2006

Does anyone have any experience with placing a multi-user back-end access database on one of these inexpensive "external network hard drives"?

I have a situation where I'd like to share my database with multiple users, but the corporate IM rats have pretty much eliminated all means of allowing us lowly employees of doing that with their network. We have no file server. We do have sharepoint services, but we only have Access 2000, which as far as I know is not capable of exploiting the sharepoint/xml back-end database features. Also, no one in the office here can share a directory on their workstation because they won't grant us administrator priveledges.

So thats how I came upon the idea of buying or creating cheap (<$250 USD) wireless network hard-drive on which to put the back-end. I'm mainly interested in knowing if it will work, and that the performance isn't going to be absolutely pathetic. I'm only looking at having 3 or 4 users at any one time, and the entire database will only house a couple thousand records.

How To Replace Hard Coded Path Of Current Db

Aug 2, 2006

I have something like this
Code:'sets generic workspace Set ws = DBEngine.Workspaces(0) 'sets target database from workspace ******NOTE hardcoded path****** Set db = ws.OpenDatabase("E:Status ReportstatusReport_Test.mdb") 'sets Recordset to deliverablePercentComplete sql statement for target database Set rs1 = db.OpenRecordset(deliverablePercentComplete)

is there a way to replace the path in the set db call, basically it is the current database that is being worked on, thus it is the current database that is opened, is there a way to say something like...

set db = ws.OpenDatabase(currentDB)
