Derived field in criteria

21 New Member
I cannot seem to refer to a derived field in criteria. Better phrased: I cannot refer to a derived field in the where clause of the query. The following does not use the value from the derived field and causes access to pop a message box to fill the value for endDate. I have tried the name of the query [q_ProjectSearch].endDate and this also fails. I have tried quotes "endDate" and this also fails. I have also tried: [q_ProjectSearch]![endDate], [endDate], endDate. I am running the query only and not using the form it is intended for to remove those elements.

Thank you for any assistance

SELECT [t_CTP Project Data].BaseProjectNum ber, t_Projects.Proj ect_Number, [t_CTP Project Data].ProjectName, [t_CTP Project Data].DurationDays, t_ProjectArea.I D_WorkType, [t_CTP Project Data].NtpDate, t_ProjectArea.I D_Facility, t_ProjectArea.I D_DatePart, t_Projects.ID_P rojects, [NtpDate]+[DurationDays] AS endDate FROM ([t_CTP Project Data] RIGHT JOIN t_Projects ON [t_CTP Project Data].BaseProjectNum ber = t_Projects.PIN) INNER JOIN t_ProjectArea ON t_Projects.ID_P rojects = t_ProjectArea.I D_Project where [Forms]![f_projectSearch]![tbFilterEndDate] <= [t_CTP Project Data].NTPdate and [Forms]![f_projectSearch]![tbFilterStartDa te] >= endDate;

I believe you cannot use a column alias in a where clause, only in an Order By clause; so change this:

[Forms]![f_projectSearch]![tbFilterStartDa te] >= endDate;

TO:

[Forms]![f_projectSearch]![tbFilterStartDa te] >= [NtpDate]+[DurationDays];

I am using the following query to calculate a date for a report ... Cal Due: DateAdd("m",!,! ) I now need to select all records whose Cal Due date is less than the date of the report. I have tried to use Date() as the critera but I get a "Data Type Mismatch" error. If I input "10/*/03" as the criteria I can pull up all of the records for October but I can't figure out how to select records before a specific date.

I have a base class that must have a member variable populated by, and only by, derived classes. It appears that if I declare the variable as "internal protected" then the base class *can* populate the variable, but the population is not *required* by the derived class (which must be the case). What would meet the requirements is if I create an abstract method in the base class that populates the member variable. In this case the...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it.

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