Hi,
We have a form where the user selects a date from a calendar, the date
is in the format May 23, 2008.
The date in the datebase is in the format 05212008.
What we need to do is get the starting and ending date of the week for
the date selected in the form: May 23, 2008, and then get the records
from the database where the dates fall within that range.
So, from that date / format: May 23, 2008, how can I find the
starting and ending dates for the week the date falls in???
I'm still searching...... .
Thanks!
John

Use the date/time funcions available to you in your database (assuming you
had the common sense to store that value as a date, which all major
databases understand nowadays....). Ask in a group dedicated to your
choice of database how they'd solve it. Most likely a simple 'WHERE
WEEK(date) = WEEK(your data)' will get you all you want.
Failing that, your options are either using strtotime() to get relative
dates, or basic unix timestamps (worst case scenario: created with sub
strings) and some easy math. I strongly suggest to let a database
(probably highly optimised for this kind of thing) handle it.

I have a query set up to gather together data between two specified dates.
Shown in the query column as:
Between #24/09/2004# And #01/10/2004#
Is it possible to enter several different date ranges, ie between 24/09/2004
and 01/10/2004 together with 05/10/2004 and 07/10/2004 ?
If I enter the "Between" criteria on different lines it returns no data.

Hello,
I am comparing two date values, one from a database and one that has
been converted from a hard-coded string into an actual Date type. So
far so good. The problem I'm having is that one of the values comes
from the database, and for existing values it works fine, but if the
date doesn't exist (which will always be the condition when the user
first enters into the form) I am adding logic to my javascript like: if

Hi,
I'm new to access and am very wary of dates as I have limited
experience in their manipulation and I know if they're not done
properly things can turn ugly quickly.
I would like to use a calendar control to allow my users to enter a
date but I need them to enter a time as well. It doesn't look like the
calendar control will allow times to be entered so I was thinking of
having two text boxes. One text box would contain the date...

We commonly use triggers to log changes to our main tables to
historical log tables.
In the trigger, we create a concatenated string of the old values by
casting them as follows:
CAST(O.MYDATE AS CHAR(30))
When directly updating date fields in the main table, the logged value
gets saved in the format YYYY-MM-DD as expected.

Hello all,
General question for back-end database that has numerous date fields where
the database will be used in regions that put the month first, and regions
that do not.
Should I save a date format in the table design, such as: mm/dd/yyyy?
What I've done for years is to store the date format in date fields, then on
the forms, based on their region, I would set the date formats on form_load

I'm retrieving some records from a database. One of the fields
contains a date/time. I would like to format it as I send it out to

Can some one please tell me how I can/should do that? Or possibly
point me to an on-line explanation?
Thanks
ps: if it makes any difference, the data is coming from a MS Access

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