Comparing A Date/Time Field To System Date
Hi,
I am trying to compare a value in my databse produced by the date() function, short date format, to one that is exactly 24 hours after the value recorded by the date() function. If the value in the database is 24 hours prior to the current date(), I need to flag a text box a diffrent color to alert the user. I am unsure on the If statement that I will need to produce this result.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!
Thanks

Rnd Based Off System Time/date
Hey all, I'm trying to find a solution to a problem. Is there any way using VBA to generate a random number, based off the current system date and time? The theory is that a random number seeded by the system date/time will be truly unique and the possiblity of it ever occuring again will be nearly nil. Or is there a better way to create unique ID's (such as member ID's, or something similiar) based off the system date/time that can be used as a primary key in a relational db.

Hard Code TIME To Selected Date On Form (to Make It Date&time) For My Query Criteria
Hello buddies :D, do you have any idea how to make this work? To select data that falls within this criteria of date range between cboDate and cboDate2 (fields on my form). The date in [tblJobDetails]![timeIn] come in this format "08/17/06 10:24 AM", but the cboDate/cboDate2 (takes in date only e.g 08/17/06) what i am after is to evaluate specific hard coded time in addition to the date entered, i.e. even tho, i haven't entered time on the cboDate/cboDate2, I want specific time hard coded where e.g If i select a date range of 08/17/06 and 08/18/06 on my cboDate and cboDate2 it should really be evaluating: 08/17/06 8:00 AM to 08/18/06 8:00 AM. This is the criteria i curentlly have on my query in design view tha works perfect in selecting date only. ([tblJobDetails]![timeIn]>=[Forms]![frmPendingJobs]![cboDate] Or [tblJobDetails]![timeIn]>=[Forms]![frmPendingJobs]![cboDate] Is Null) And ([tblJobDetails]![timeIn]<=[Forms]![frmPendingJobs]![cboDate2] Or [tblJobDetails]![timeIn]<=[Forms]![frmPendingJobs]![cboDate2] Is Null) How can I incorporate 8:00am to 8:00am into my cboDate and cboDate2. What can i do to make this happen? Your kindness will be greatly appreciated http://www.naijaryders.com/forums/images/smilies/thankyou.gif

Ignore Time In Date And Time Field
Hi, Wonder if someone can help please. I'm quite new to Access so please bear with me. I have a data field in my database consisting of both a date and time. I then have a form containing two fields where the user can type a 'To' and 'From' date to extract the records that they are interested in. The query behind this uses the 'Between[Enter The Date] And [Enter The Date]' coding. The problem is that because the field contains a time it doesn't return any records when I run the query. Can anyone offer a bit of guidance on how I could ignore the time part of the field perhaps by adapting the above. Many thanks Chris

Current Date/Time Field
I have a form with date/time field. I have the default value at =Now(). My problem is I would like for this particular field to stay with the current date/time all the time. I mean if I created a form last week with the date/time of 3/14/2005 12:54:34 PM and go back to the same form to edit something this week I would like for that particular date/time to be the current date/time and not the date/time from the week and time the original form was created. Thanks for any help!

Unexplained Date/time Field Behavior
I have a database used for cataloging CDs. There is a date/time field, formatted as hh:nn:ss which I use for the individual track times. I wrote a simple routine using DateAdd to update this field by adding or subtracting one second each time the "+" or "-" key is pressed. The routine works as expected. Private Sub Time_KeyPress(KeyAscii As Integer) Select Case KeyAscii Case 43 ' "+" key; add one second to existing track time KeyAscii = 0 Me("Time") = DateAdd("s", 1, Me("Time")) Case 45 ' "-" key; subtract one second from existing track time KeyAscii = 0 Me("Time") = DateAdd("s", -1, Me("Time")) End Select End Sub After I update a field using the routine, if I click into the field it displays as "12:02:27 AM" instead of the desired "00:02:27". If I click away from the field, the display changes back to "00:02:27". This happens only if I have updated the field by adding or subtracting one or more seconds. I've attached a screen shot with the cursor in a field which has been incremented. Any ideas that would explain this? Charles Edmondson

Is There A Way To Export Access Date Field Without The Time?
Right now to get my Access database into MySQl I have to copy it out of Access into Excel then I export it to a delimited text file. I would like to eliminate the Excel part and go directly from Access to a text file. The problem is with the date fields. When exporting from Access it always adds the time (00:00:00) which MySQL chokes on. It seems there should be a way to do this with the export function, so that the date is just the date and no time. Any help would be appreciated. Mark Agnum

Inserting A Record With A Date/time Field
Hi, I'm trying to insert a record into an Access database from some ASP Code. I have: ... strSQL = "INSERT INTO tblUser (UserID, Date, Comments) VALUES " & _ (" & nID & ", #" & Now() & "#, " & "''" & strComments & "');" conn.Execute(strSQL) ... I'd have thought this should work but it doesn't.I just get a "Syntax error in INSERT INTO statement". My date field, called "Date" (just in case that's a problem!) in my database has no input mask defined, it's just a basic date/time field. I've tried replacing the '#' symbols with single quotes, and doesn't work either. I haven't had any luck finding a definitive example of how to do this, even though it's trivial surely. All the similar examples I've found talk about how to update a record set with a date, or how to set the system locale, etc. Any ideas as to what I might be doing wrong?

Querying Time Stamped Date Field
Hi, I use a query to return values between two dates, here's the code I use: Between [Select Start Date:] And [Select End Date:] However because my dates are time stamped (they need to be!) the query omits anything on the end date, for example: Between [01/09/2007] And [05/09/2007] will return values for the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th but not the 5th - because (I think I'm right in thinking this but I might not be!) it only returns values upto midnight on the 4th? so 05/09/2007 13.42pm won't show up because it's after 11.59 on the 4th. I can't ask people to enter in an extra day because quite alot of people who use our database won't remember and it'll cause alot of problems when they forget and get the wrong figures. I've tried adding the following: " & "11:59:59"" onto the code but Access says the expression is typed wrong or is too complicated to be evaluated. Does anyone know how to fix this code please?? thank you for your time

Subtracting 12 Hours From A Date-time Field
I am trying to subtract 12 hours from a time-date field when the payperiod does not equal 01. in a query I have: work date: iif([payperiod]="01",[StartTime],[starttime]-#12:00:00#) - Access added a PM before the second hash so it looks like this: iif([payperiod]="01",[StartTime],[starttime]-#12:00:00 PM#) When I run the query I get a message box: "syntax error (missing operator) in query expression '00:00:PM#,2))". I am unable to open the query to correct the error. I can cop the unaltered query from a back up database. My question is how do I subtract the 12 hours. Thanks Steve

Query Of A Date/Time Field With Other Criteria
I'm trying to setup a query to pull only the records that have the latest date in Time Scanned for each different serial number. I have a table with 4 fields: Serial Number, Model Number, Location and Time Scanned. Some records will have the same Serial Number repeated with different Model numbers,locations and times scanned. I can't figure out how to query only the Last Time Scanned for each different Serial Number. I've tried using "Last" for critria on the time scanned field, but I need that for each different serial number. It's probably easy...but I'm not able to get it. Thanks!

Combinding Date And Time Field In Sql Statement
I have a schedule table which contains a field for the start date of the schedule and another field that contains the start time of the schedule. I want to combind these two fields in a sql statement so that I can query for a range of schedules based on the date and time. The below sql statement works fine in a query, however, when I tried to use it in a opening statement in ADODB, it does not work. ADODB somehow does not like the combinding of the date and time fields. Can someone point me to the right direction in achieving the same result. mysql = "SELECT tbl_Customer_Site_Schedule.*, CDate([startdate_sch] & " " & [starttime_sch]) AS StartShift FROM tbl_Customer_Site_Schedule WHERE (((CDate([startdate_sch] & " " & [starttime_sch]))>=#11/5/2007 20:0:0# And (CDate([startdate_sch] & " " & [starttime_sch]))<=#11/7/2007 20:0:0#)) ORDER BY CDate([startdate_sch] & " " & [starttime_sch]);"

Invoice# Field Definition Based On Date And Time
In this thread: http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?p=549287#post549287 I had a problem. Now I decided to just make two tables, one with sales for a "passer by" and/or directly to a client without a case/labour costs. And a table for sales in relation to a case with labour costs etc. I guess I still m*ssed up on that part and have to make do with that decision (kind of like I depicted in the photoshopped image). For invoicenumbers I want to use DDMMYYYYHHMM. When adding that field to the design of a table, how do I go about that? Do I just use a Text field and create an input mask for that? Or do I need to use a number format with a certain input mask? Or would it be wiser just to use the date/time type of field and give it a new inputmask? I guess 000000000000 would be the one for that, right? Although I read the help file I do not know if I should use ;0; behind those first group of zero's or not. Yes it is a mandatory field, but it will fill in itself as soon as a product is typed in in the product/invoice list, with a default value of the current date and time. I need to brush up my knowledge on the formatting for that so that 28-05-1975 19:55 will be displayed and stored as 280519751955. Or is that also done automatically by using that input mask? Or will that give an error when Date or Time() etc. is used for that field in VBA? Just a few questions I need some help with, I've been trying some stuff but it really doesn't "stick". And if anyone has some time, I could really use some general advice/ideas for setting up the invoicing part differently for a new version of the db yet to come in the future.

Create Field That Auto Populates With Record Creation Date/time?
I think my question is fairly simple - fingers crossed. I want to create a field that, whenever a record is added, it auto-adds the date & time the record was created. I'd call it Book_Date_Added, or something like that. I tried snooping around the Default Value options but couldn't figure it out. The table exists and it already has some records, so I'd need to know how to add this field rather than how to create it when I create a table (although that would be helpful too, if it's somehow different). I'd appreciate any help, thanks a bunch.
