Automate Holiday Periods
Jan 25, 2006
I have read more post than i care to think about but I can't stil get my head round the following problem.
I have created a database (with this forums help) but I am stuck on the following query/form/vba etc....
Our staff holidays run from 01/05/05 until 30/04/06 and i have a query that calculates what holiday entitlement staff are due from 01/05/05 on a daily basis up to 23 days worth of hols ending on 30/04/06, but I can't work out how to set next years holiday period 01/05/06 - 30/04/07 without changing the form manually, is there a way for it to auto update??

Just a reminder if you're expecting responses to your question that Monday September 4 is a holiday in the U.S. and Canada.

Hi all I am quite new in access, and I have been looking around the forum, but have not find anything that really matches my project, I don't even know if I can achieve in access!!
There is a screen shot of what I would like to create wich is a screen that shows me the full calendar year, the year can be changed with arrow buttons next to the year, the grey area are the saturdays and sundays per each year. Finally for every they in the calendar including the saturday and sundays I can insert a letter or a number the mark as holiday or other events and the field would change color as in the picture!!!
Is this possible?
Thnks

I've a nice formula which work the majority of the time, the only time this doesn't work is Bank Holidays. Is there a way to build on this:
>=Date()-IIf(Weekday(Date(),2)<2,4,2) And <=Date()-1
The above simply runs a report for the last working day, expect if today is a Monday then it runs Fri-Sun.
Im assuming if I know the dates of the Bank Holidays I could hardcode them into the beginning with multiple IIF statement followed by the one above??

HI All
I have a question that I just cant seem to get my head around....so I thought I'd pick your brains!
I have a table that has DriverID, Date, Work, Sleep, Rest. As you can imagine, this records their hours of work, sleep & rest.
Now with new fatigue management laws in Oz, we need to find out if they're working for more than 168 hours in a 14 day period.....
My thoughts are, create a query that runs through every date of the year, then counts forward 2 weeks, sums the WORK hours and only displays anything over 168 hours??? Is this correct? Would that not simply die ? Considering we have about 30 drivers to run through?

Hi all!
I want to add a function to a form that filters records from a specific date period.
Each record has a field containing the date the record was added.
Example: I want to show the records added between 15.09.2006 and 10.10.2006.
Furthermore, the “from” and “to date” must be defined in textboxes, and the filter initiated with a button.
I need this functionality on a continuous form and in a report. How do I achieve this?

I have several pieces of equipment that register data every minute, is there a way to do like a 5 minute average
i.e., 00:00 - 00:04, 05:00 - 09:00
NOT 00:00- 05:00, 01:00- 06:00 and so on.

We have a db of salmon survey data where catch data is recorded by date, site, etc.
Historically, we have used ‘sampling periods’ to group our results into blocks of time that can be compared from year to year, and within year.
Now, having frequented this forum I’ve read that we shouldn’t store information in tables that can be calculated from fields and I want to try to follow that advice in this instance but am having trouble working this out.
Here’s how we define a sampling period.
1.The start date of the first sampling period in a sampling year is the last Monday in the most recent November.
2.Each sampling period is 14 days long.
What I want to do is have a query use the date of a set to calculate what sampling period the set belongs to. I have an idea that I could use a datediff function to calculate this if I can figure out the ‘last Monday in the previous November’ part. I’ve searched this forum and googled but am having trouble finding anything that I can adapt to this as a query expression.
Anyone care to help a fish bio out? Much obliged :)

I am new to Access and would be very grateful for some adivce on setting up a query.
The data in the table below comes from a photon counter. Both fields are numbers although TIME actually represents seconds.
I need to be able to group the DATA field by arbitrary TIME periods. e.g. to divide the table up into bins of, say, 8.7 seconds length, showing the total accumulated in the DATA field for each successive period of 8.7 seconds.
The tables are about 300,000 records long.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
TIME - DATA

285748175.894557 - 100

I have some issues with summarizing in a query. My intention is to summarize income and expenses over periods
This is how it should look like.
Periods_____Total income___Total expenses
01-2013_____234__________435
02-2013_____533__________132
03-2013_____345__________853
etc
I made the following query to get the result I wanted.
Unfortunately, the result seems to be multiplied instead of summarized.

If my fiscal year ends 12/31 but the pay period doesn't end until 1/10, how do I get a query to tell me there are 25.3 pay periods remaining (counting from the last pay period 1/11)?

Hello,
I'm having a hard time trying to figure out how I should go about designing the table structure for the hours tracking for the database I'm working on. Basically, I have a table with projects (tblProj) that I need to track the number of labor hours worked per month. The problem lies in the fact that each project could have varying time periods, anywhere from less than a year to more than a year and can start and end at any time of the year.
I was thinking of creating a second table (tblProjHours) to store the hours for the project but I'm not sure what the most efficient way of doing this would be. My idea was to create a table as follows:
tblProjHours
ProjHoursID (pk)
ProjID (fk)
BeginDate
EndDate
Month1
Month2
Month3, etc....
I would create a large number of fields/columns, something like Month1 to Month36 just to make sure I have enough months to enter in the hours. This is of course inefficient since some projects would be way shorter than the maximum allowed months set by the table structure and there is always the possibility of surpassing the maximum allowed months based on the table structure. I was wondering if someone had any better ideas on how I should pursue the design. Thanks in advance!

I'm having trouble finding an entry anywhere about this, although I'm sure I'm not the first person to come across it...
When I am typing my entry into a combobox it begins to autosearch, highlighting the part of the entry that it finds that matches the beginning that I typed in (as a normal combobox does in access).
However, when the entry it finds has multiple periods in it (i.e.: S.T.A.R) it stops searching and does not highlight the remainder of the entry it moved to. I'm not sure that searching is the correct term, which may be why I can't find any information on this, but is there a way to correct this problem?

I have a MS Access database that tracks when packages are received, returned, etc from different agencies. I need to create a query or report that shows how many packages were received, returned, etc PER MONTH, PER AGENCY. I was able to create a query that listed all the "Date Pkg Rec'd" dates for October (Between #10/1/2004# and #10/31/2004#), but I don't want a listing of all of the dates, rather a total of the records within those timeframes PER AGENCY. For example, APHIS 10, FAS 3, etc.
The other problem I have is I need this done across many columns without excluding those records without an October date (for example) in them. For example, I could have a "Date Pkg Rec'd" date in October, but not an October date listed in the "Date Pkg Returned" column.
Basically, I need the simpliest way to generate monthly "record totals" for several fields.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I have a grouped query that returns a list of all periods qryPeriod
Code:
SELECT [tblMaster].Year, [tblMaster].Week, ([Year] & " - " & Right(0 & [Week],2)) AS Period
FROM [tblMaster]
GROUP BY [tblMaster].Year, [tblMaster].Week, ([Year] & " - " & Right(0 & [Week],2));
Year | Week | Period
2013 | 48 | 2013 - 48
2013 | 49 | 2013 - 49
2013 | 50 | 2013 - 50
2013 | 51 | 2013 - 51
2013 | 52 | 2013 - 52
2014 | 1 | 2014 - 01
2014 | 2 | 2014 - 02
2014 | 3 | 2014 - 03
2014 | 4 | 2014 - 04
[code]...
these are then used as the start of a between lookup against [tblMaster] along with the last record in the qryPeriod (2014 - 04)...I will need 4 queries so If someone can sort out last period - 8 I can probably do the others.would DLookUp do this say return the last 4 values, Last 6 Values and Last 8 Values

Suppose that you want to make a formula which will calculate time periods based on a given tariff. To be more precise.
Suppose you can "get in" somewhere, entrance is $2.
You are free to stay there, without additional charge, for 5 days.
Then, for the next 5 days, the charge is $1 per day
The next 7 days, the charge is $1.5 per day
Thereafter, $3 per day.
In this scenario, we can make a query, we use datediff function to see the number of days between "gate in" and "gate out".
The problem is that the tariff is not very simple and the query gets to big and difficult to control with lot's of "iif" and may be I need to make more than 4 queries and union select and so on.
I tried to find in the docmd if there is any suitable function that I could use.

I developed a finance tracker database for tracking project revenues and costs (forecast and actual amounts). I have a form where we enter a new Work Order in the DB. This Work Order form has a continous subform where we create all the billing periods needed for the life of the Work Order. Once the billing periods are created (opened) we can then add our revenue and cost forecasts for each period. We have a Billing Period lookup table that has our billing periods with their respective start and end dates (which usually begin around the last week of a month and end about 3 weeks into the next month).
For the purpose of this question, lets say we only enter the required WO_Number and WBS_Code (Composite key) and the Work Order Start_Date and End_Date. I want to click a button to runs some code to automatically create all the billing periods for which their start and end dates fall into the Work Order start and end dates.
For example, say a Work Order starts on 5/1/2013 and ends on 7/31/2013
The billing period dates in the Billing Periods lookup table are as follows:
May-13 ---> 4/22/2013 - 5/19/2013
Jun-13 ---> 5/20/2013 - 6/23/2013
Jul-13 ---> 6/24/2013 - 7/21/2013
Aug-13 ---> 7/22/2013 - 8/18/2013
Then we would need the following billing periods created in the Work Order subform:
May-13
Jun-13
Jul-13
Aug-13
I don't even know where to start on this. Is it possible to automate this process with the setup I have? If so, how would I structure the VBA code/logic to use the billing period lookup table and create entries in the subform for all the billing periods that fall into the duration of the Work Order.
The attached DB is a stripped down version with only the tables and forms needed for this problem.

Hi:
I want to automate the XML export function of Access and not sure if it is possible or how to do it. In going through the menu bar (File ->Export) interface, I must choose the root table, and then subsequent tabbed windows allow one to select what tables to be exported, if I want the schema to be generated, the target filename, etc.
Instead of having to go through this large selection process, I'd like to write a script that I can run consistently over the same tables, produce the same file name, etc. Can anybody provide a suggestion/code/pointer on how to accomplish this? Thanks in advance.

I have a database of chemicals and one of the entries is the MSDS number. I would like a hyperlink, pointing to the .pdf of the chemical, created when I enter the MSDS number. If the MSDS number is 1111 the .pdf file will be something like (\servernamefolder1111.pdf). Is there a way to store \serverfolder in a string, append the MSDS number, and .pdf then store that in a hyperlink field. Any suggestions?

I am trying to automate a report to run at night. I have created a batch file that will run a macro each night. But, when Access starts and loads my database I get a Security Warning [ This file may not be safe if it contains code that was intended to harm your computer]
I have tried to use a Sendkeys command to send an 'O' to go ahead and open the database but it doesnt work.
Also, my report goes to a pdf converter and it asks for a file name. I just want the macro to accept the default and continue.
How do I do this?
Thanks in advance

I was working on project that involved writing the data into Access database using a C program. The insert query execution was taking very long, so I decided to write to a .csv file and then import it to one of the desired tables. This worked very fast as compared to directly writing to the DB. Now I want to automate this process. The user should specify the file name at the command prompt and I want to call a script so that the script automatically imports the contents of the .csv file into the access DB. I already have connection established to the DB. All I am looking for is the script that can automatically import the .csv file into access DB. Please help me out. :confused:
