Our school writes its semesters as F05, W06, S06, J06. The letter stands for the season (fall, winter, spring, summer) and the two numbers are for the year. I have two fields on different tables. The first one uses the semester (F05) to tell us when they joined the club. The second uses only the year (2005) to tell us what year the race occured.
Anyway, what I want to do is set the default value as the current semester or year. I have tried setting the Format to yyyy and Default value to Year() but neither of those makes Access very happy, especially since Year() needs a number between the parenthesises. I don't want to have to change the defaults each semester if I can aviod it. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

I've created a form with Record Navigator which allows a user to create a new record. When the form is opened how do I immediately put the user into add mode by default?
If I have a field in a table called "AddedBy", is there a way for this to default to the CurrentUser that's logged in to the database when a record is added to the table? I know you can use "Application.CurrentUser" both in the VB code and within SQL queries, but it doesn't seem to work if I put it in the "Default Value" box with the table editor. Any thoughts on this would be appreciated. Thanks!
All, using access 2010. How do I display the default value of a date/time field to just the current year instead of using =date() to get the full date.
I have a form with a combo boxes and a table with relevant list and additional field, fldDefaultDrive (Yes/No Field).
Currently in order to set the default value, I have used the following code for each default;
Private Sub Form_Load() Forms!frmMediaLabeller!CboDriveName.DefaultValue = """D"""
End Sub
However, I want users to be able to go into the table and change the default value if thier CD player default Drive is anything but D: Drive. I have tried to replace the D above with an SQL statement but with no success.
Private Sub Form_Load()
Dim Drivename As String
Drivename = SELECT tblMediaDrive.fldDrivename FROM tblMediaDrive WHERE (((tblMediaDrive.fldDefaultDrive)=-1));
What I really need is for when the form opens, it looks at todays date, then matches current user and then goes to that record for today, if no current user there, then will goto new record..
i know, sounds complicated, and probably is really easy, but my heads not with it today, as about to get drunk as its my 40th, and got people ringing and texting and still trying to get this done....
I've included a copy of this database, named Timecards..

Ive got a table set up which is not calculating properly (or least i cant seem to get it to) Basically i have a row for quantity and a row for unit price. What i want to do in my table if possible is times the unit price by the quantity so it will come up in my reports which at the moment it isnt doing, as the default value is 0 in my table! Might anyone be able to help me on this matter?
I have a billing date on my form. Each billing date should be on the 15th of any month (1/15 or 2/15 or 3/15, etc…) Is there a way to default a day to the 15th and then make the user enter month and year? Or if there is no way to default the date to the 15th, may be there is somehow I can check to see if day that user entered = 15th? Thanks.
How can I Default a Text Box value by the input of another two Text Boxes. This Expression on the Text Box Default Value does not work.
=IIf([Text0]=0 Or ([Text8]="<" And [Text0]=1),"White",IIf(([Text0]>=1 And [Text0]<=49),"Blue",IIf(([Text0]>=50 And [Text0]<=499),"Orange",IIf([Text0]>=500,"Yellow","No Input, left blank")))) :confused:
Other Text Boxes follow, I want to see the Default Value as soon as I leave Text0 and Text8.
