filtering data based on an user input on a form

Hi
Given a form with a date formated text box on it, which will serve as an
input box for dates, how can I write a VBA sentence in order to apply a
filter with that input?

Suppose text box is "TEXT13" and the table field is "Data of birth".

When I run a code like this
DoCmd.ApplyFilt er , "[date of birth] = " & "#" &
Me.[Text13] & "#"
I get no trustful results.

Thank you.

I much prefer to set the form's .filter and .FilterOn properties in
code.

me.filter = "[date of birth] = #" & Me.[Text13] & "#"
me.filteron = true

Hi
Unfortunatly, it works fine but for one particular date (February 1st 2002).
Does someone have any idea?
Thank you.

What are you actually putting in the text box? To use # delimiters like
that, it must be in mm/dd/yyyy format, or some unambiguous format.

I'm developing a fairly simple user control that has two textboxes for date/time entry (a from date/time and a to date/time). One of my requirements is that there should be no button that sets these values (i.e., no button to cause a postback). The problem I'm having is that I need a number of validations to be performed on the data entry, but I don't know how to do this without having the user control/page posted back to the server. ...

Hello, Does anyone have an idea on how I can filter the data in the gridview control that was returned by an sql query? I have a gridview that works fine when I populate it with data. Now I want to look at that data and filter it based on what is in it. I know that this could have been done with data sets and data views in asp.net 1.1 but how is this done now in asp.net 2.0?

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
