Forms :: Current Time On Form Status Bar - Keeps Showing Calculating
Aug 2, 2014
I have my main menu form that shows the current time and uses the OnTimerEvent for this. (Set to 1000) Issue is that when I open another form it keeps showing Calculating. It does not seem to affect performance but keeps the status bar from showing the control explanations.
I have a form that shows a subform at the bottom which displays all the corrsponding jobs so that an individual can make the current master form display the specific job information. My problem is I would like the subform list not to display the current master's job as one of the listed ones.
Example:
I have made an order for today and tomorrow. Im looking at the order for today and I see the list of all the jobs I did which is two on the subform. I would like the subform not to display today's job since I am already in it.
When editing a record in Access 2003, the status bar would show the value of each field's description from the table design grid. Is there a way to get Access 2010 to do the same?
i have a opened date[default value =Now()] and resolved date[default value =Now()].
i would like to calculate the time elapsed between the two dates. it is normally on the same day, but there are instances where it can run past midnight.
I have a combo box which looks up a set of values from a table, some of these I have got to store, others I merely want to work with and calculate from. These columns are:
Now for most of these, I 'think' I have it planned where they will go or how they will be used, but the OTRate is flummoxing me a wee bit.
On the form, I have an OT(time) field - the idea being that the user will enter the hours and minutes of overtime they have done (short time format - is this correct?)
Then, I would like the form to calculate the cash value (has to be stored in a field) by multiplying the hours/mins worked by the OT Rate - - but I don't want to store the OTRate unless I really have no other option. Once the calculation has been done, if the Rate is then 'forgotten' then that is no issue, as the only time it would be needed is if the field is revisited to amend any errors (so I am thinking the calculation should be done as an After Update event on the OT(time) field?)
I have a query called "Program Status Count" that keeps track of the current status of various programs. There are three statuses: Closed, Deficient, and WIP.On the Query, I used "Total:" row and have two fields: StatusID field set to "Group By" then in the next column I have the same StatusID Field set to "Count" (it auto-renamed itself to CountofStatusID)...which on the query does what it is supposed to do:
Closed, 2 Deficient, 1 WIP, 1
When I go to the Report Design and try to make a Pie Chart (or any graph) it asks me what query I want to use, so I point it to the Program Status Count Query and select the only two fields I have in the query.This is the Row Source Code:
SELECT [StatusID],Count([StatusID]) AS [CountOfStatusID] FROM [Program Status Count] GROUP BY [StatusID];
Sometimes, it will show the appropriate fields but then it will disappear in Report View, switching to Print Preview does not fix the issue. Actually, it often deletes the correct information in the chart and use the PK autonumber instead of the words.Othertimes, the default data shows up and nothing I do changes it. I have even done the copy/paste of the query table in the report (doesn't work when the graph needs to update.
I have a database which contains a field 'status'. This status takes a numerical value (1, 2, 3, etc...). Everything works great.
What I want is to monitor the length of time a field spends on particular status. Specifically, I want to record the length of time that the record spends with a status value of 3. So if the record has its status changed to 3, the system 'starts the clock' and once the status changes away from 3, the system 'stops the clock'. This must also continue if the status subsequently returns to 3 at a later date (for the same record) and cumulatively produce the total amount of time that the record spent on status 3.
Practical example
March 19th: Record is set to status 3 (for the first time) March 21st: Record is set to status 1 March 25th: Record is set to status 3 (again) March 27th: Record is set to status 2
In this scenario, I want visibility that the record has spent four days on status 3 altogether. I don't need exact times (nearest day will do). Ideally the system will only count working days (although this is not a must-have).
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..
The main form contains a combobox, populated from a query which pulls in specific data (time) from a table
The subform is linked to the combo box on the main form. Based on the combobox selection, the subform updates with associated records with the combobox selection
I would like to add additional functionality in the form load event, that would read the current time and identify the nearest value in my combobox.
I have tested the code below behind a button and it works
If Time() > "13.00:00" And Time() < "14:30:00" Then MsgBox "The Time is " & Time() cboPricingCADeadline.Value = "14:30:00" Else cboPricingCADeadline.Value = "NA" End If
Would a loop through the recordset of the Combobox be best used here? Set the first and second values of the recordset to variables, query the time and then return the value if statement is true, or move to the next record in the rs replacing the first and second variable values
eg If value1 > time() and value 1 < value2 then cboPricingCADeadline.Value = value1 end if
If this is a good lead, how do I go about setting up my recordset?
I have a working dB which can calculate a shift duration and sum total all shifts worked within a period for the purpose of producing a labor report for payroll. I have successfully used the DateDiff function and converted the minutes to HH:MM on my form and reports. Now I want to calculate elapsed time for a specific period within a shift, I'll call it OtherHours and I am aiming to calculate a portion of time that meet the following conditions below. I am using field names of [PunchIn] and [PunchOut] and both are of type General Date.
IF [PunchOut] ISNOT Saturday,Sunday EXIT FUNCTION ELSE IF [PunchOut] ISNOT Between Midnight and 0559 hours EXIT FUNCTION ELSE DATEDIFF ("n", <MIDNIGHT>, [PunchOut])
My thoughts are to solve the DateDiff portion and then figure out how to apply the conditions within the IF statements.
I have a database consisting of two tables. One is "articles" and the other is "tasks". To put it simply, I would like to find how much time the article spends in tasks, but one article can have many tasks, and they often (but not always) overlap. Tasks have a start and end date field.
I have a table called Neutron2015. I want the current date and time to complete when entries are made in two other fields. So I am looking for this date and time to populate in EXLStart when an entry is made in Processed By, and also the current date and time to appear in EXLEnd when an entry is made in Completed By with the bold word being the field names.
I am using workdays to calculate time passed between two dates. I also have a table for Holidays that I don't want counted as work days. This is working well, but I would like my queries to show a null value instead of showing #Error when a date field is empty. Here is my coding in my Module.
Option Compare Database Option Explicit Public Function Workdays(ByRef startDate As Date, _ ByRef endDate As Date, _ Optional ByVal strHolidays As String = "Holidays" _ ) As Integer
Looking to create two command buttons or two keystrokes sets in an Access 2007 form that will allow me to place a current date and time in any allowable field where the Cursor is presently placed. Similar to what was in Access 2000, ctl: (for the current date) and ctl shift : (for the current time).
I have a problem with my query to calculate a most current date. I have try everything to explain all current data at each TubeNumber, but there are no calculated answers at TubeNumber 7, IC2, IC3 and IC4. Why not these TubeNumbers? See below my formula to find a current date:
Code: FindACurrentDate: IIf([Time]=DMax("Time";"qlkp_FindACurrentDate";"[Date]=#" & DMax("Date";"qlkp_FindACurrentDate";"[TubeNumber]='" & [TubeNumber] & "'") & "# And [TubeNumber]='" & [TubeNumber] & "'");"This is most current date!")
I have send my database as an attachment with my question.
I need a Select Query to display data on a form. When an order is appended to my table the field named Printed is updated with the time it was appended. When my form opens it needs to display the field Printed and a field I call MinutesFromPrint. This field needs to display the total minutes elapsed from the time in the Printed field to the current time. My expression is not working.
MinutesFromPrint: DateDiff("n",[Printed],Now())
Here are a couple of samples of my results when I run the query at 7:49 A.M.:
I want to be able to put a barcode in a field that when a reader scans the barcode it records the current time. Need it for access control to record who is in and out of the office. Reading other threads I understand it may be possible in Dlookup.
I need some help with calculating login/logout times. I have an ODBC link set up for the raw data in AVAYA. The problem is that the login/logout times are reflected as the number of seconds that have passed since January 1st, 1970. I need to know what that amount in seconds is in a time format.
I have worked out the number of days difference between my rowdate and the start date of 01/01/1970 so I am left with how many seconds have passed since midnight of the selected date.
For example, the selected date is 3/7/07. The Login time is 5410 (seconds passed since 3/7/07 00:00:00). How do I figure out what time that was (hh:mm:ss)?
Hello, I have been struggling with this for 2 weeks now. I give up and am now going to ask for help. I am trying to calculate time. I have been trying to do this in the query. I have 4 fields Start Finish Start2 Finish2 I need to figure out how many minutes total a letter was worked on. The reason for the 2 time sets is because they could start a letter and then stop and then come back to it later. So I think what I need to do is figure out how many hours and minutes for the 1st Start/Finish set, then figure out the hours and minutes for the 2nd Start/Finish set and then add the two together. Can anyone help me out here. Like I said I am at my whits end. Oh the fields are formatted in the Date/Time data type.
I tried to create search Form in access and after trying for while I finally made it. I have drug down the "query" to the design view of "Form Search" and added up there. Now using "STD" and "TELENO" I can search for these 3 coloumns. My main table is "Example"
Now as you can see in my attached screen shot Column "Recieved Time- less than 3 month" I would like to do that in Access. I would like to create something that will autometically calculte(Substract) the date from "Order Date to Today's date and will give me a result= "Less than 3 months or Greater or less than 4 months etc". I mean it will always substract from "Order Date" to "Todays Date". I have tried with some macro as well but it did not show up "Todays date"
I tried several ways to do it, even tried to input another coloumn(Using formula) in "Query" table but failed to do so.
I have a file that collects the time data of the shop employees. It records time in (start of day), time out (lunch start), time in (lunch end) and time out (end of day).
I have the following feilds in a query: Timein Timeout I need a subtotal feild that totals the two across midnight I also need a Lunch feild Then I need a total feild with the subtotal and total subtracted
I tried using this expression please help anyone if you can
Format([Timein] -1 -[Timeout], "Short Time") this created my subtotal feild
then I had a made lunch feild with 30 mins of time into it
then i tried Format([subtotal] -1 -[lunch], "Short Time") and called this one my total box.
The first one worked the second reported an error. Please any suggestions??
I have a query that has a total sum , my problem is when i create form all the fields in the query is visible in the form but my total sum doesnt show up, but when i view it in query it works properly.
I don't really know what the symbol really is called i just called it total sum, the E icon in query ....
