I have been trying to convert string into double number format. I am running a SQL query in VBA that returns a double number format; however my understanding with SQL queries in VBA is that they return string only. The results are showing up perfectly fine when I run the query in the query editor; however when I try using the returned value in further calculations in VBA I keep getting a "Type Mismatch" error.

I am connecting acces to oracle servers via ODBC .
In the table there is a date time stamp - format data type text:
20130225060621
I would like to convert so that it is recognised as a date so I can calculate against e.g. Now() or another standard date format.
this is what I am currently using (which is OK) BUT I need to calculate against the time also.
Current Check Point Date: CDate(Mid([DZ_ZPKT_AK],7,2) & "/" & Mid([DZ_ZPKT_AK],5,2) & "/" & Mid([DZ_ZPKT_AK],1,4))
I spoke to an IT guy who works in TOAD program and he gave me this SQL:
select to_date(dz_zpkt_ak,'DD/MM/YYYY HH24:MI:SS')from orders where ordnr='4411310';
this is the format I would like but cant make this work.

looked around but could not find the answer.
i have a text box that might or might not contain text and number data. an example of the data in the text box might be;
bob roberts, 17/03/2006, aged 23
what i would like is some VB code that would:
check anywhere in the text box for number characters that are 8 characters in length with a comma at the end [12345678,] as in the first example. and change this to 12/34/5678,
bob roberts, 17032006, aged 23
would become 'on lost focus'
bob roberts, 17/03/2006, aged 23
anybody any idea how to do this?
thanks

Hello,
I have a text file I'm querying that stores a field as a text.
ComponentID:0000000242
I'm inserting this data into a table that stores this value as a number. Thus truncating the leading zeros.
ComponentID:242
I would like to create a query on the table using an InnerJoin on the text file column:ComponentID:0000000242 and the table column:ComponentID:242 as the unique identifier. Doing this join gives a case error because of the different data types.
Can format ComponentID using a query so it reads from my table as 0000000242 and do an InnerJoin to the text file. In vb
String= Format(242, "0000000000")
But I'm finding it difficult to get the query to format this correctly.
Unfortunately, i'm unable to change the column data type in the table structure and am looking for a work around. Is this even possible? Any ideas?
Thanks.

I have two tables in a query joined by a ID field. The problem is in the one table the ID fiels is a text format and in the other table its a number format so the query builder doesnt like that and gives me the Type mismatch in expression error.
There's no way around it though; i need it to be those formats in its respective tables for reasons i wont go into here for simplicity.

I am exporting data from access 2007 to Excel 2007 using VBA code. I have a whole number, which I want displayed as whole number. But after the export, the number is using the 1000's seperator in Excel. So for example if my original number in access table is 12000, it is showing up as 12,000 in the excel file.It has something to do with the NumberFormat property. I have tried doing this but doesn't work.
objSheet.Range("A1:A7").NumberFormat = "General"

Public Function ConcatAgreementFundsCommitted(ID As String) As String
'/ Purpose: Generate a concatenated string of Tracks for selected line.
On Error GoTo Err_Handler
Dim lngLen As Long 'Length of string.
Dim strOut As String 'Output string to concatenate to.
[code]....
I need 'Funds_Committed' to display as currency.

I have a form where I want a textbox [txtMaxOrdLimit] to be visible only if another text box on the same form [PaNumber] contains the letter D in the string. This is the code I have on the forms On Current property but I'm missing something because textbox [txtMaxOrdLimit] doesn't show on the form at all.
If Me.PaNumber = "*D" Then
Me.txtMaxOrdLimit.Visible = True
Else
Me.txtMaxOrdLimit.Visible = False
End If

I have a continuous form that displays data from a table. What I am trying to accomplish is to change the format of the field if the string length is equal to 11, to "@@@-@@@-@@@@-@". Otherwise if it is greater or less than 11 then no format.
I have tried it using code:
If Len(Me.FormFieldName)=11 Then
Me.FormFieldName.Format = "@@@-@@@-@@@@-@"
End If
Is it even possible and if so is my syntax correct or am I way off base?

I have a field on my Report called Revenue. It is used in a calculation and there is a calculated field called Profit. Revenue-Cost=Profit. That all works.
The only thing that is wrong is that the Revenue field displays its numbers like this:
0.7
12.43
4.3
0
etc.
i.e. not formatted for currency. But I don't get the currency option under Format. It is based on a Query and this Query is based on a Linked Table.
Any suggestions on how to get it formatted as currency while still having the calculated field working?

I do have a module to extract a number from a string :
Public Function ExtractedValue(strSent) As Double
If IsNull(strSent) Then
Exit Function
End If
Dim strTemp As String
Dim intLoop As Integer
[code]....
My problem is that the string I do have is like:
19.0 EA
195 PAC
42 M
150 L
the problem is that when the number is like 19.0 EA the value I get is 190, in reality it should be 19. The rest is fine as there are no dot's.

Hi!
I have two tables Atable and BTable and both have a field called AcctNo. In Atable, it is type of Number and in BTable, it is type of Text. When I do a join with these two tables
select * from Atable, BTable where Atable.AcctNo=Btable.AcctNo
I get error saying "type mismatch".
My question here is: How can I convert a type from number to string or string to number in my sql statement?
Thanks,
Aijun.

I have a query which runs fine, however one of the outputs is a calculated field and i use the Format(someValue,"Fixed") method of specifying the format for the % Change .Here is the query
Code:
SELECT tblTempBearsWeek3.SymbolCode AS [Short Ticker], tblTempBullsWeek3.SymbolCode AS [Long Ticker], tblTempBearsWeek3.[Week 3 Date], tblTempBearsWeek3.Short, tblTempBullsWeek3.Long, tblTempBearsWeek3.[Short Week 3 Close], tblTempBullsWeek3.[Long Week 3 Close],
[code]...
The problem is that the % Change calculated field for some reason comes out as a String. i know this because when I try and sort on that column, it sorts it as if it is text and not a number value i.e. it doesn't put it in Ascending order.

I am looking to find if a field contains a number and then build a case statement depending on which number is found. The field will contain data just like this:
Quote:
Repaired frequency response and grounding issues. Replaced 2 Hybrids, capacitors, and connectors. Tested MER/BER and operation to specs.
Here is my code that did not work:
Code:
If Me.txt_work_comm1 Like "*Hybrid" Then
'Sets up auto priced based on number of hybrids entered
'1 hybrid
If Me.txt_work_comm1 Like "*1" Then
strCriteria = "repair_item = 'Charter RF Amplifier Repair + 1 Hybrid' AND profile_types = 'Alpha'"
[Code]....
To Summarize:
1. I need to find if the word "Hybrid" or "Hybrids" is in the field
2. Then I need to know how many to determine a price

Is it possible for access to query through each field, and tell me the total number of occurence for each word? In this small example, the output would be:
Unable 2

Date of Birth (DOB) field etc. in one program are text - how do I make another file with the same data into number fields for Date of Birth field etc? When I copy data to file that has number fields the 09252004 is changed to 9252004. Can I get reports with the correct Date of Birth in them by moving data from text file to number file?
There is data entered monthly in file and formula has been set up for January, February etc as ---quarter: Int(([month]-1)/3)+1. I would like formula for the fiscal year for April to be counted as month 1, May - month 2, June as month 3, July as month 4, August as month 5, Sept as month 6, October as month 7, Nov as month 8, Dec as month 9, Jan as month 10, Feb as month 11 and March as month 12.
Thank you
