Please guide me !!
Calender Date Help Plz!!!
Hey guys,
I am currently working on a database with the ability to input dates with clicks on the built in calender.
There are rules which the program must abide by for this program when the user clicks on a date.
1. - an input date must be 7 days in advance
2 - an input date must also be within 2 months.
Here's my code for this feature:
VB Code:
Private Sub Calendar1_Click()datetxt.Text = Calendar1.Valuedate1 = datetxt.TextIf date1 < (date + 7) Then MsgBox "Please book at least 7 days in advance"If date1 > (date + 60) Then MsgBox "You cannot book more than 2 months in advance"End IfEnd If
However, the above code does not work!
NO matter where i click on the calender, the msgboxes never come up!!
Thanks for any help!!!
Calender/Date Calculation Question...
Hello All,
Hope I state this in a way that makes clear what I'm trying to do. This is more of a pure programming question.
Do any of you know an algorithm which will yield all the possible dates when the given criteria is, say, the second Tuesday of April?? In the example, I would need to know all the days in April which could be the second tuesday (5,6,7 - like that). I know there are seven of them. I know I can LOOK at all the possible April's and figure it out, but, now I'm trying to code it.
Sidebar: Is Thanksgiving defined as the 4th thursday in November or what??
This is for an Almanac program I'm working on.
Thanx In Advance,

Calender Control - Date YES But Which Week ....
Hi there,
I'm trying to figure out if it is possible to use the Calender control and somehow when you click the date can also find the week of that date (say it's "date = week 32 of the 2006) just like in a dairy. If it has to be any other control fine, but I would prefer the Calender cntrol to work with.
Thanks aktell

Hi All,
When I load up my calendar control at runtime, the date that is automatically selected is the date when I first created the project.

Display Date Range Based On Calender Week No
Hi guys,
I'm trying to think of a coding that will display the date range of a selected calender week no.
For example if the user selects week 32 on the calender, then the program should return the date range, 24/09/01 - 30/09/01.
Have anyone got any idea of how to do this. Pls guys... Help me...
Thanks a lot.

DATE Problems - Change Date Format To European, Get Current Date, Subtract 2 Dates?
Need someone to point me in the right direction/start me off with this please as I am quite clueless on it at present...
I need something that can successfully subtract two dates...
eg. calculate the difference between the current date
02/04/04 (2nd April 04) and 29/03/04 (28th March 04)
...
which will then output a result of 5 days
So what I need to know is...
1.
I need to know how to get the current date from the system clock
2.
I must somehow get my date function converted into European date format (as at present it is in USA format ie. 2nd April 04 is 04/02/04 like April 2nd 04 which is not good!)
3.
and then I must actually SUBTRACT the 2 dates (the current date and a date that is given) from each other to give an integer which I can then use (ie. a value like 5 or 15).
But I have little idea how to go about this
Can anyone please start me off?

DATE Problem - Formatting US Date MM/DD/YY To European Date Format DD/MM/YY
I have a problem whereby the user must enter a date into a field...
The system changes the date format to US standard which is MM/DD/YY
but I need to change the format to DD/MM/YY (European standard)
I have done this using the Format function, but I still have a slight problem
Format(mydate,"dd/mm/yy")
doesnt account for all dates...
for example...
if I enter 31/03/04 this is fine, it will accept it as that
However, if I enter 02/04/04 (todays date - 2nd April 04), it will change it to 04/02/04
Any ideas how I can counter this from happening?

Date && Time Values In Date And String Format Differ
The program (debug) output below lists the last modification time of two files. File 1 is stored on a NTFS medium, file 2 sits on a FAT medium.
In order to be able to compare these dates, I need to round the odd seconds of the NTFS file up (FAT files have only even second values).
The lines after the file headers show the date & time value before and after the rounding, in date, double precision and string format.
file 1 (NTFS)
= 2005-07-12 08:57:09 = 38545,3730208333 = 2005-07-12 08:57:09
after rounding up
= 2005-07-12 08:57:10 = 38545,3730324074 = 2005-07-12 08:57:10
file 2 (FAT)
= 2005-07-12 08:57:10 = 38545,3730324074 = 2005-07-12 08:57:10
The strange thing is that when comparing these values, they appear to be different (!) both in date and double data format, not in string format.
2005-07-12 08:57:10 > 2005-07-12 08:57:10 (date format)
38545,3730324074 > 38545,3730324074 (double precision format)
2005-07-12 08:57:10 = 2005-07-12 08:57:10 (string format)
Any idea where this difference comes from?
Rounding up was done with DateAdd.

Format String To Date Format And ....
Question one,
If a user types 4/5/03 into a textbox, how do I format this to this date style - 04/05/03?
They may type it as I want, or they may type it like the above, so I need to make sure before I do part two, below, that it is in the correct format.
Part two,
How can I compare the month part of the date (05) with a Month name (e.g. September) in a Flexgrid. I know I can use the textmatrix to get the name of the month. Would the best way be to use a select case to compare the months?

Valid Date/Date Format
You guys were probably doing this one in third grade...
I have a textbox on a form in which a user enters a date. I want the user to always enter the date in the following format: mm/dd/yy
When they click OK, how can I check to make sure it's a valid date and it's in the format I want, no other format?
Thanks!!
Empty Date && Date Format
I have in my table a field where I have now a date like
#01-Jan-2004#
But, for a specific reason, I want to delete that date and leave the field empty.
How can I do that? Is there any constant for the "empty date"?
If I try #00-00-00# I get an error.
And another question:
Is there any chance to set the date format? I don't want to depend on computer settings!!! I want to be sure that if the user will write in a text box
"02-03-2004"
this will be "02-Mar-2004" and not "Feb-03-2004"
Date Format But Not Current Date HOW?
I am new to VB. Work with VB5 Enterprise.
I think this should be simple, but I cannot figure it out:
How do I create a text-box in which the user can write a random date that is not today's date. And still keep the date format?
Example: User inputs 12122009 and I want textbox to change into: 12-12-2009 or 12:12:09 or 12-12-09 or 12:12:2009.
The change should be instant or at the latest at "lost focus".
All the examples I have found work with the current date.
Any ideas?
All the best

Format Date
Hi !
I have a problem with formatting my date.
I'm currently using VB (access)
The scenario goes like this:
I'll get a value from the textbox and store it as a global value.
Before performing a search using SQL, I'll have to format the date to mmddyyy (instead of ddmmyyyy).
But after formating, my date still appear as ddmmyyyy. Why is this so? Is there any other way to solve it?
Below is some of my codes:
'--- Assign value to global var ---
ViewModeAssdate = Forms![View Assessment]!Text268.Value
'--- format date to mmddyyyy---
ViewModeAssdate = Format(ViewModeAssdate, "mm/dd/yyyy")
thanks alot!

So the date in the cell would say 8th.) Is there something I can do to add that on the end. I would need it for rd, th, st, and nd.

I use an Access 2000 database.
I insert a record in the following way:
conn.Execute "Insert into table (Date1) values (# " + myDateVar " +"#,'mm/dd/yy') "
I change the system date format from Regional Settings to
yyyy/mm/dd, and then I open my table and the date I've entered is inthe system new format.
Is there a way to manage the date fields in a given format, no matter the system format ?
I tried to force myDateVar to the old format by using format$ function, but I obtain the same result.

I have a VB app which writes into various Date/Time fields in Access databases. I've just changed my regional settings in the control panel to show English date format (dd/MM/yy) from the US format(MM/dd/yy) and dates are still appearing in the tables in US format.
e.g. Say the date I wanted to write to a field is 7-Mar-02 so I set the current system date to 7-Mar-02 (I want to use the Date function) and do the following:
Dim l_Date As date
Dim l_SQL As String
l_Date = Format(Date,"dd/MM/yy")
[At this point it looks like 7/3/02 or 07-Mar-02 (in medium) - OK]
l_SQL = "UPDATE TestTable SET TestDate = #" & l_Date & "#"
[At this point a class I've written which wraps around Access object model runs this query]
The date will appear in the table as 3/7/02 or 03-Jul-02 (in medium). This also occurs if I manually copy the query text into Access itself and run it within Access so not using my object.
It seems that Access is still interpreting whatever it's sent as US format. Is there something else I have to do ? Any suggestions welcome.
