Function Date() Not Recognized + OFFOWC.dll Request!
Feb 14, 2008
Hi,
I'm Italian and I started playing (I don't work on it) with access to create an Airline Simulator for MS Flight Simulator. My "program" read data imported in an Access table by a secondary program, and work on it. :cool:
One or Two of my Beta testers found this problems:
1) function "date()" is not recognized in Access 2003 and 2007. in 2003 is read as "date"; in access 2007 is read "date(". The one with Access 2007 resolved the problem reinstalling the Office Suite 3 times. The third was working. nothing else changed. :mad:
2) Access request the OFFOWC.DLL, in an Access2003 version. But only one user... and that .dll is from Access 2007!! :confused:
I wrote the database in Access 2007 and in Access 2003, the file is obviosly Access 2003 format.
I attach it here, for someone that wanna try if he has the same problem. PS due to size of the file, it's a zip containing a .rar file, that contains the .mdb (zip only was 660 Kb)
Do you have some indications!? Thanks a LOT!! :)
Lorenzo.

I have a replica database in Access 2000.
I changed a form in the design master that had nothing to do with the date or a date field. Everything appeared fine.
Now I updated the replicas, and an error is happening on all replicas as well as the design master. Any reference to Date() or Now() causes errors.
If it's a field on a form it has an #Name error. If Date() or Now() is on a report, a popup to enter parameters appear for the date. This database with these codes have been working for years.
Is it safe to say it's no longer recognizing Date() or Now() ?
Any ideas on a fix?

I am using this formula to format my date field
Convert this:A601030730 to 03-Jan-06
A6 = Year
01 = Month
03 = Day
0730 = Time (not worried about that part)
ApptDate: IIf([abap_030] Is Null,"",Format(DateSerial(Val(Mid(Left([abap_030],6),2,1)),Val(Mid(Left([abap_030],6),3,2)),Val(Right(Left([abap_030],6),2))),"dd-mmm-yy"))
I get the date to "Look" the way I want, but Access does not seem to recognize the formatting as it will not sort properly?
Any suggestion would be welcome, thanks

I am looking for assistance creating a query on a date field that will go
back three business days from the current date. It must not show inclusive
days, as in yesterday and the day before. Just the 3rd day past and not
counting weekends. Also holidays would need to be considered.
Thanks for any assistance

Hi all,
I need a little help. In my DB, I have a command button set up (I was tired of typing in dates) for date, but I used the Now function, which also gives me the time.
Now I have over 3000 subrecords of the main ones. I now need to queries transaction for that specific date, but it also retrieves the time.
I tried to go back and change the NOW to DATE in VB, but the code does not run.
How do I change all records that have date and time (using NOW function) and only click that command button to show only the date (mm/dd/yyyy)?
Thanks in advance.

About three weeks ago, my work computer crash hardcore. Windows (2000 ver) had many corrupt files in the Windows Directory and in the Registry. Because of that, IT gave me an up to date computer running Widows XP. I am still running the same version of Office (2003 Pro).
I think because I have a new machine and a different platform, I am now have issues with trying to administer the permission rights. MS Access is not recognizing me as Admin and/or Creator of the db, therefore I am not able to modify permission rights....... :eek:
Does anyone know how make this db recognize that I am the Creator of it?
Thank you in advance for your help.:cool:

I'm experiencing an interesting problem with a database I have been working on. For some reason, when I tried to enforce referential integrity between two fields, whose values should have matched perfectly, I got an error that I couldn't because they didn't match. When I ran an unmatched query, I found that the numbers DID match, but for some reason Access wasn't recognizing it. Even when I type the values into the field to "correct" it, it doesn't recognize it; I have to copy and paste from the master table into the child table in order for the values to be recognized as matching.
The same thing happens when I try to filter or query the table; if I type the value, it says no records are found, when I copy and paste, or select from the combo box, it works.
ANY IDEAS?? this is really weird and it's happening on multiple computers so it's not just one system. And, this has never happened before with this file or any other that I've worked on...

Hi !
I use access 2000 (french) and runtime access 2000 (english) on XP.
After upgrading workstations with last microsoft security patchs, the use of left, mid or right functions in queries doesn't work anymore.
We know now that the patch acted on MDAC, is it the answer?
I don't know how to make it work.
If you have any idea, it would be great.

I have a form with a query set up as the record source. If there are records in this query, the form will display. When the user clicks a button, if there is another record in this query, the form displays the next record. When it gets to the EOF, it should close this form, but EOF is not being recognized (I run debug and it says it's false when the button is clicked)? I get run-time error '3201' after I click the button twice.
I know for a fact that there are 2 records in this query. So once I click the button on the 2nd record, the form should close.
Code:
Private Sub SelectTblMyMedButton_Click()
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Set db = CurrentDb()
Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("qryMedDataSelect", dbOpenDynaset)
[Code] .....

I have a query that I referenced it to a combo box in a form. In my form I created a combo box which has a list of VendorName and I want my query to opens a VendorName report based on whatever chooses in the combo box so that I use the combo box name in the criteria of the VendorName in my query. Somehow I get an error which says "The Microsoft Office Access database does not organize "[Forms]![Form1]![Vendor_Name]" as a valid field name or expression".

I'm using Access 2003 with a frontend/backend database on a network. Several of our forms have image controls with links to a folder of JPG images, and these have worked fine for months. I have followed the recommended linking method described here (http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=92837&highlight=jpg+link) and as I mentioned everything has worked fine until recently. Foolish me decided to try out Office 2007 beta for a few days but uninstalled it after a few days. Now, on my computer only back on Access 2003, whenever I try to open one of the forms that previously worked I get an error message saying "Access does not support the format of the file '....jpg. Try converting the file to BMP or GIF format". Copies of the same frontend works fine on other work stations, and I can open jpgs in Word and Excel. Or, to be even more frustrating, an embedded jpg will show up fine in my copy of the program - it's only linked jpgs that are rejected. I first repaired Office 2003, then completed unintalled and reinstalled it - same error message. 2 hours with MS tech support has been likewise futile. I'm guessing it has to be some kind of registry error, but nothing I seem to do makes a difference. Any suggestions at all will be greatly appreciated, because my next step is a complete format and clean install of everything.

Access 2010. I have a query that I referenced it to a combo box in a form.
If I rename the combo box, save it, and then rename it back to the same name it works fine for a while and then stops working again.

I use the following code to achieve following
a) Open a word document from MS access / VBA,
b) Connect to data from a query
c) mailmerge it
d) Save it as a new document containing mailemerged letters.
The code does open the required document as I can see it open.
I put a message box to recheck that filename/path is what I mean, and to to know till which line the code runs. Code runs till that point and that word doc is seen open. I get the error message before
Then I get error message.
I was fooling around and was getting message " This command is not available because no document is open" I tried to remove few lines thinking redundancy. Before getting the message, I was also getting the error trapping message "No documents opened."
Now I am getting different message.
I am getting message " The remote Server Machine does not Exist or is unavailable"
Following is the code I have written.
Dim xlApp As Object
Set xlApp = CreateObject("word.Application")
xlApp.Visible = True
fn = FormPathName("941 2014 AutoOpen.doc")
[Code] .....

I maintain a grade book application that uses many queries whose results are determined by "school year". Most of these are reports and I have a combo box on the Print form for that allows the user to select the school year. The criteria field of the several queries derived by school year is:
[Forms]![Main Navigation]![Print Form]![SchoolYear]
SchoolYear being the combo box control.
They work fine.
I have now added a function to export data to Excel. This is done in a VBA module and I am using a query to select data for the record set I use to write to Excel:
Set objRst = Application.CurrentDb.OpenRecordset(strQueryName)
When I hard code the school year in the query criteria field (i.e. "2012-2013") the process works fine, but if I revert the query to point to the print form field as above, I get an empty recordset.
The Excel export is executed from a control on the Print Form, so the form is open and the combo has data showing, just as it is when a report is run whose data is derived from a query.
When I execute the query from the VBA module, the query is not getting the school year selected on the Print form passed to it properly.

Hello all. This is my first post on here after reading many of the other threads as I try - often in vain - to pick up access.
I am in the process of building a couple of databases, the main one being one that is an amalgamation of 4 other/older mdb's. All tables/queries etc were simply imported from these older defunct mdb's and then are archived off every month so they have 3months data and no more in them. The only thing is when it comes to problem solving and/or new queries, it is impossible to tell which tables/queries relate to which sections of the Db.
So my question to you is can I rename tables and queries in any way so that any queries that are using these tables are updated at the sametime, and if so how is it done? I have asked my colleague who is working with me to develope my understanding of access and he is at a loss. We are in the process of trying the old fashioned way ..... getting a book from the libarary ... but thought I'd try this new fangled internet thingy first :D .
The thought of having to trawl through around 100 tables and queries to rename or even re write the entire query/formulae is so daunting, I simply dont have that amount of time. Im using Access 97 and would greatly appreciate any help on this.
Thanx

I have a query which selects a complete list of companynames and producttypes, and another query which selects a few companynames and producttypes. What would be the query to select the companynames and producttypes from the first query that do not include the companynames and producttypes from the second query?

Hi Folks,
I know this is possible, just not sure how to proceed or what function to use ... I have a normalized database of unique identifiers, admit data, and discharge date. I am attempted to count only the dates within a certain range between admit and discharge dates for each record. For example, I would like to compute the number of days someone was in admission between #07/01/03# and #06/30/04# only, not counting any days outside of that range.
So if a record has an admit date of 5/3/00 and discharge date of 12/7/03, the value returned would be 159 days, because that is the number of days between #07/01/03# and #06/30/04# the record was enrolled. If a records admit date is 01/01/01 and discharge is 07/26/05, the value returned would be 365 days.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Joe

Here is what I'm trying to do.
I need a function which takes the current day and finds the date of that weeks Sunday.
Then I need to take that date (of the Sunday) and subtract 13 weeks from it.
This is for the criteria in a query so that the only data displayed will be the previous 13 weeks worth.
Not quite sure how to go about this. TIA for the help.

Hi Guys,
Does anybody know the formula for validating a date in a DOB field.
I want it to only allow dates where the age is at least 18years old.
Something like '<Date()-18' (But a formula that works!)
Thanks in advance!

To all you access Gurus
I have been asked to look at setting up and access database to do the following
To keep a record of pupils and 9 tasks the pupils have to do and also the total amount of time it took a pupil to do this task
They have a total of 25 Hours to do all tasks but this is spread out over the year.
What I need is someone to tell me the best table layout to do this
The pupil record has to have the following
First Name
Surname
Form
Total Hours taken for all 9 Objectives
A description of what the pupil did to achive each Objectives
record if that task is complete
Also Date Task was Complete
I have done a test database with just one table in it and inside that table
had all of the above but apart from name, form and total hours I repeated the rest nine times.
This just does not seem right
What I want is to pull up the pupil name and then select Task say from a Drop down box this would then insert a new field if it did not allready exist in pupil recored and then you can fill in the task details of course if the field/s all ready existed then to open that up to allow you to update this
It would then need to update the total Hours field in the pupil record with the hours it took to do that task/objective.
I have basic Access knowledge but i cannot think of best way to achive this can anyone help please

Hi,
First time on here, so hello all!
I have a very strange request from a client who wants to do something simple that they can't because of poor database design (not mine!) . I can't think of an elegant solution so I'm wondering if anyone on here can?
They have multiple tables containing address information, for example they have one containing information about certain buildings. They can use the softcopy of the database to retrieve information about the building but for backup they now need a hardcopy.
Now part of the building information includes the alternative names for buildings (for example "City Museum" and "Art Muesum" might be different names for teh same building). The hard copy needs to have a line entry for both names (proper and alternative) and this is where the difficulty lies.
Using a simple example the table might be:
colour fruit
red apple
orange
yellow banana
The output I would need in the report is therefore:
Red (Apple)
Apple (Red)
Orange ()
Yellow (banana)
Banana (Yellow)
Now I may be being dense but I can't see how I can do this! All help very gratefully recieved :)
