System Date And Time


Hello,

I have a form that displays the system date and time for every entry.
When the data gets stored in the table, the date and time do not get stored. How can i save the date and time with all the other information.

Also, everyday when i open the form, it shows me all the data from the previous day but the date for all that data has changed to taday.
I want that everyday when i open the form, it should be blank and all data from the previous day must be stored in the table along with the date and time.

Hope someone can help me with this
Thanks

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

Group By System Date
hi guys,I want to group a field in my query within a certain period of time, say 1 week. (e.g. between #12/5/2005# and #12/11/2005 23:00:00#) however I need to run this query every week.so I don't want to have to change the dates every week just to run the query.Is there a way to use the system's calendar date so that the values will be input automatically (i.e. to group between today and today-6 23:00:00)?? maybe using date() function or something??:confused: heaps n heaps of thx!!:D

System Not Recognizing Date Input
I have a form where the user inputs a date into a combo box and then selects a command button.


There are two options:
1. The user can select an exiting entry (by date from the combo box) to edit a existing entry.
2. to create a new entry they enter a new date (not in the combo box).
Then the user selects a command button.

The command button has an onClick macro where the value in the combo box is checked (IsNull([Combo40]))

If the "IsNull([Combo40])" is true a message box is presented saying the date field is blank.

The problem is (finally) if you enter a new date "3/3/04" and forget to hit the enter key the system doesn't recognize the entry, in other words the "IsNull([Combo40])" evaluates to TRUE.

We currently have the msgBox remind the user to hit the enter key but that seems a little low tech. Is there anyway to look at the field and see the data even though the user forgot to hit the enter key??

Thanks

How To Prevent Subsequent System Date From Being Update
I've design a form as such when i FIRST add a NEW
RECORD, I want the system date to be capture into the
form. I have a table calls Register. And this table
has a field "DATE" which takes the value of the system
date(=now). However, when i open the same record the
next time, the orginal value(at the time when the
record is created) of the field "DATE" will be
replaced by the new system date. However, i do not
want this to be happen because i want the field "DATE"
to take the value of the system date when i first
created the record. My question is how to prevent
subsequent system date from being updated in the
record whenever i open the same record? Thank you.

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

Reformat Date Time To DATE
I am working with an Access 2000 front-end linked to an Oracle back-end. One of the fields is formatted as "7/9/2006 3:41:01 PM". In my query I am using the SQL "CDate(Format([R6T_QVLOG].[QVL_COMPLETE_DT],"Short Date")) AS NewDate" to format to a useable date format. But, it is returning a string, not a true date.

Is it possible with SQL to convert this date/time to a date format?? Are there other options??

Thank you!

Date/Time
I have a field in a table set to Date/Time. Is it possible to set the properties so that it always defaults to "PM"? In other words, if I enter "5:30" and then TAB, I always want it to be entered as "5:30 PM". Right now it appears to default to "AM". For this particular application, 90% of the entries are made in the PM.

More Date/Time Fun
I've got a field in a query that is pulling the Date/Time from a table in the db. I've added another field in my query ...
Tran_Datetime: Format([dbo_t_PMCS_History]![Tran_Datetime],"mm/dd/yyyy")
to format the Date/Time into text so I can use the Date()-1 command.

Problem is ... the Date/time in the database is like 1/1/2006. There is no leading 0 on the month or day. Now when I use the format function with "mm/dd/yyyy" the date() command will only work when the Date/Time is has two digits in the mm/dd fields. Hope this makes sense :confused:

Date/time US &lt;&gt; EU
Hello my sql/access friends

I have a table with a date/time field named “teLezenOp”

and I use the following line in VBA:
SELECT * FROM tblBericht WHERE (teLezenOp<=#" & MediumDate(Now, Now) & "# or teLezenOp is Null ) ORDER BY datum

(I use the european notation dd-mm-yyyy)
Here is what goes wrong: yesterday 28-2-2006 there was no problem
But today 1-3-2006 I get an error:
Syntax error in querry-expression: telezenOp<=#1-mrt-2006# or telezenOp is Null

If I look in my acces DB telezenOp = 20-2-2006 so there is a difference in notation? 20-2-2006<= 1-mrt-2006 I don't think this is the problem because yesterday it worked with the same code.

now I've just read the following in one of the threads on the forum:
"In VBA code and query SQL statements, the date between the # signs must be put in US format. So #4/1/2005# means April 1, 2005."

I guess this is the reason of my problem:
I compare a EU notation with a #EU#(so that is incorrectly read as a US notation)
is there an easy way to switch between EU and US notations in VBA/sql statements?
I guess there is but I can't find it...

tnx for any (hopfully rediculously simple) tips/tricks/sollutions

I would like to make it so the date and time can be entered, but I am stuck.

Under the event procedure of the button I have

I want the user to only be able to type in an hour between 8 a.m and 4 p.m. and either 00 or 30 for the mins. Any other time is not acceptable. What kind of expression in the validationRule box can i add to limit the user to what they can type in. Or would that be the correct place to do it? I want to keep the date and time in the same field so I can set index as no duplicates so as not to schedule an Appointment at the same date and time.
