I am running an Access Database for a large uk companys call centre.. I use many diffrent systems which allow me to show our centres productivity...
I have hit a wall
When i first developed the DB i used the time formatting hh:mm:ss but later down the line i found if you *the time by 86400 it converts the hh:mm:ss into a workable seconds format....
One of my old extracts that i feedinto the DB are in the old format therefor i do this calculation within an access query which *the time by 86400
however i have found an probelm.. if the time is over 24hrs it seems to double the time there or there abouts in seeconds
example
01/01/1900 01:42:00 which is basically 25 hrs should be around 92520 seconds
when is do this calculation in an access query it is coming out 178920 all the other times are correct so this rules out how i link 2 querys ....
This must have been answered before, but I can't find it by searching so sorry for the dumb question.
I input a time in hours and minutes in a field with a Short Time format. I would like then to convert this to seconds in a field with a number format so that I can total the seconds and then add them to the results of a calculated DateDiff control to get the grand total of time spent on a project.
Here's one that I'm having difficulty on. I know just enough about code to completely confuse myself, so if you answer this, please explain in detail. I have a training database, in which a portion of it stores the scores of events of a physical fitness test. Part of this test is a times 3 mile run. I need to calculate a point value for the submitted time, but here's my dilema...If I use the time/date feature it accepts the input as hh:mm, and will not let a time of more than 24 minutes be entered, since it sees this as 2400, or midnight in military time. I need the data to be inputed as mm:ss, and I have another text box that accepts this info and converts it to a point value. I would appreciate any help you could provide. Thanks in advance.
I have an Access application that calculates elapsed time to the second. It works fine with a format of hh:nn:ss and input mask 00:00:00. Now the requirement has changed and I am required to do these calculations to the tenth of a second. As far as I can see Access doesn't accommodate split seconds. I realize I could put the split second time into another integer field but this makes calculations complex.
I am what you would consider an extreme newcommer to Access. I used to use FileMaker as my database app. I have a bunch of data in an excel workbook that now needs to be converted to DB and I want to use Access.
I have the form set up and I have a bunch of time fields entered in minutes and seconds. They show up as 12:05:32 AM. I want this to display only as minutes and seconds (5:32) drop the hours and am. Is there a mask I can use or how would I approach this?
I am writing an Access program to compile Cell phone billing information for my company that has around 60 phones. I am entering the detail information and reporting on it. The problem I am having is with the minutes and seconds calculations. For instance employee A might have accumulated 630:59 minutes for the current month and employee B might have 250:12 minutes (Mins Secs) for the current month and so on. I want to be able to enter these amounts in a feild and then be able to sum them. Can you tell me how to format the field that the detail minutes will be entered into. I have been looking on the net for hours for a solution. Also I want the sumation to be formated in minutes not hours. Example
630:59 540:12
Would = 1171:11 If this is possible, what would be the field data type and format.
ok.. i am storing CD info in a database, including track lengths, these are obviously in minutes and seconds.. I cant use short time because that is hours and minutes, which means any track longer than 24 minutes doesnt work.. i cant simply use text with an input mask because i want to be able to calculate the total length of the CD by adding the track lengths together.. if i use Long Time it also shows hours, which will confuse the user, and create more scope for errors.. any suggestions? I hope I am making sense here.. thanks for any suggestions :D
Basically, I get daily reports from the client and the AHT and ACW values come in seconds. I've recently added code to the query changing the data to nn:ss which works perfectly. Below is some info:
tblTelephony [AgentName] [Calls] (number of calls answered) [AHT] (in seconds) [ACW] (in seconds)
[Code] ....
The above code works very well, where I'm stuck is in the attempt to average the fields [AHTMinSec] & [ACWMinSec] by Agent in a report.
Using [AHTMinSec] as an example:
I have the daily values for each agent [AHTMinSec] in the detail, Avg([AHTMinSec]) in the Agent group footer showing each agent's average, Avg([AHTMinSec]) in the Team group footer showing team averages and Avg([AHTMinSec]) in the report footer showing the campaign average including all teams. When I run the report the details are hidden providing each agent's average, the team average, and the campaign average.
The report worked just fine until I converted to minutes with the above code. Is there a reason that I'm getting an error stating that the calculation is too complex? I've done enough research to determine that the db can't Sum in order to average...
I want to call commandbutton1,2,3 after every 10 seconds automatically but following code doesn't do that.
Code: Private Sub UserForm_Initialize() 'Update the Barcodes printed today Call CommandButton1_Click 'Update batches to be scanned / batches scanned today Call CommandButton3_Click 'Update files batched and counted today Call CommandButton2_Click Application.OnTime Now + TimeValue("00:00:00"), "GoToSub" End Sub
I am currently working on a database where my source data has the times in military format which includes the seconds; 18:45:30. All my time fields are set to data/time and format is Short Time. The Short Time format gives me military time but only down to the minute. I need to include the seconds into my time fields. I tried creating an input mask but it converts it to standard time.
how I can show military time down to the seconds as in my example above?
I am working on making a DB to use as a production schedule. tblBuilds holds a list of builds. I have several reports to show this list with different filters. One such report is rptBuildsToday. This report will be open on the production warehouse computer and displayed on a huge screen all day every day.
Is it possible to make it so this report auto runs again every so often? When new builds are added to tblBuilds, or if a record on the table has its date changed to "today", It would be nice to have the report reflect this change within a certain time without having to manually refresh the report. The people looking at the screen will be doing so from their work benches and nowhere near the computer that has it opened.
If this is indeed possible, could the proposed method also work on a report or form inside the tab of a navigation control?
One of the directors of the company I work for would like to have a large screen display the current status of jobs that my database stores. To cut a long story short the table he is interested in is called tblJobsLogging and is updated manually by our laboratory on a regular basis as jobs are completed using a form linked to a query in turn linked to that table.
Think fast food chain order monitor. He wants to be able to look up from his desk and see the progress directly in front of him at any point.
Is there any way that I can have an access form displaying these records in a datasheet view which continuously refreshes every X seconds / minutes or updates as a record is updated in the underlying table?
I am using the calender control 11.0. By this calender I can only set the date year, month and day. I can not set the clock time:Hours, minutes and seconds. Is there a calender that enables me to set the date in the format:dd-mm-yyyy HH:MM:SS, means day,month,year Hour:Minutes:Seconds.
We have both Access 2003 and Access 97 users on our network and i have a database that is written in 97. But lately we've been getting unrecognized format when we open it. So my guess is someone out there is opening it in 2003 and converting it. Is there a way to tell the database to ONLY run on 97 and DO NOT convert to a different version?
Hi, hope someone here has experience with this issue.
Our system was recently converted to much tighter secured network environment and moved to Office 2003 (still Windows XP).
Within the next couple of weeks we expect to split/secure our new db for shared use across a network (approx. 6-8 users at any one time).
I want to keep the db in 2000 as long as possible because I'm doing lots of the work at home and that's what I have. After deployment there will be lots more changes but in managed releases. (sounds official, eh?...)
Does anyone know of any risks I'm running by keeping it in 2000 within Access2003?
Hi. I have a db with a numeric field called Eur_2. This field is populated with data imported from an excel file. When the Eur_2 excel field contain Null, in the correspondent Access Field the value inserted is 0 (zero). I have necessity to put in the Access field Null value. The VBA code that I use for import is:
Eur_2 = XL.Application.Cells(indriga, indcolonna + 10) If Eur_2 = 0 Or _ Eur_2 = Empty Then Eur_2 = Null End If
but when i open the Access table, the value inserted is 0 (zero). There's something to do for change 0 (zero) to Null?
When I load a spreadsheet I can't add an index because it is a linked table, so I want to save it in MDB format so that I can add an index and then export it to SQL. However, when I save the file as an MDB file the data is all still linked as a spreadsheet and I still can't add an index. (I would add the index at the last step in SQL, but Pervasive SQL is very temperamental.)
Basically I just want to export an Excel spreadsheet into SQL and add an index.
I have a query in which I am splitting a long integer into Month, Day, Year and then putting it back together using Date Serial in another query. When I originally set this up, the date was coming through as 5 numbers. Now it is coming through as six. However, Access will error out if I try to set it as a date.
So, how can I redo the fields below to get 2 digits for the month instead of one. The date now comes through as 041706
CInt(Mid([Field1],1,2)) AS iMo, CInt(Mid([Field1],2,2)) AS iDay, CInt(Mid([Field1],4,2)) AS iYear
Looked through DateSerial but possibly not the way to go. I have a text field, "Month", with the dates in this format: Jan-06, Feb-06. What do I use to convert these to date format? 1/1/06, 2/1/06.
