I recently asked the group for help on converting 3 numeric variables
to a new date variable. The DATESERIAL function below worked
perfectly! My question now relates to problems with this new variable
when I try to filter either by form or selection.
If I type 10/20/2005, just as you see it, with no quotes or other
punctuation, in the testHarvestDate field I get the following error
message: DATATYPE MISMATCH IN CRITERIA EXPRESSION and Access then locks
up on me!
What is the problem here? Any help would really be appreciated.
Regards,
Mike
testHarvestDate :
DateSerial((IIf ([harvest_month]=1,2006,2005)),[harvest_month],[day])
4  2151 
Try this:
CDate(DateSeria l("yyyy", "mm", "dd)) where the date in the dateserial is
your important date. It sounds like it is treating DateSerial as a text
value.

Linda,
Thank you for the reply. I tacked cdate on the front as suggested and
got the same error message. Any other suggestions?

Mike
Okay, just thought of what that could be. In the query or SQL statement try
adding a # before where the date goes and right after it. Example:
Select YourDateFieldNa me from Yourtablename where YourDateFieldNa me = #" &
Me.Sometextboxi ntheform & "#"

Linda - This is the code that creates the new date variable called
testharvestdate .
testHarvestDate :
DateSerial((IIf ([harvest_month]=1,2006,2005)),[harvest_month],[day])
I'm not sure where you want me to add the # - in the above or during
the actual filter? Okay, I guess my inexperience with Access is
shining through - loud and clear. I've been a SAS programmer for 15
years and using Access for a few weeks!
Your help and patience are much appreciated.
Mike

Hello,
I have a problem with field filtering between an Access 2000 Project form
(the application is called CELDT), and the report that shows the results of
the filter. Both the form and the report are based on the same View
addressed in the Record Source of both as 'dbo.CLMain_vw'. The View resides
in a SQL Server 2000 database. There are two different problems I am having
with filtering: The first involves filtering in the form by date...

Hi All;
I need little help.
I have a datasheet form.
I allow user to do 'filter by selection'.
My form contains a column with values.
As user changes selections, I want to
calculate totals. I can do this the
first time the form loads.

Hi,
I have a report that works just fine.
Now I would like to add the capability to choose selection criteria to
limit what is displayed. I created several reports that do this, but
they used VBA to create SQL statements, then apply them. Now that I
have been using Access/VBA for awhile, I am wondering if there is a
simpler way to do this than coding these long sql statements.
My report has a query as its record source. Can I just...

Maybe you could try using a query as the recordsource for your subforms
and for the criteria field in the query you could use a Form parameter.
This way - instead of using the form filter property you could set a
value in a textbox on your mainform which would filter the query. This
way all of your subforms are synchronized.
fieldname: fldx
Criteria: Like Forms!Form1!Text0
Text0 would be a textbox on your main form (Form1 or...

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.
