calculate working hours

8 New Member
hello,

i'm using 'Access database' and VB 6.0. My database is named ' timesheet' and it contains a table named 'tabletimesheet '. The table contain the following fields: 'staffname, stafftype, date, projectname, projectcode and hoursworked' . On my VB 6.0 form, i have got a ' list Box' containing the 'type of staff', for example 'engineer, manager or secretary'. I have got another 'list Box' containing the 'name of projects' . Also i have got 2 textboxes into which the user will enter the 'Start date' and in the other textbox, the user will enter the 'End date'. I have been using ADODC to connect my List Box and Text Boxes to the database through the DataSource and DataField, is it good? The system i'm developing should then find the total number of hours worked from the 'start date' to the 'end date' for the item selected in the 'type of staff' List Box and for the item selected in the 'name of project' List Box. For example, if i choose 'engineer' in the first List Box, i choose 'project aaa' in my second List Box, i enter '4/5/06' as 'Start date' and '10/9/06' as 'End Date', then the 'sum of the hours worked' by the 'engineer' on 'project aaa' from '4/5/06' to '10/9/06' should be calculated and be displayed in a textbox. How do i do that? What are the code to set the connection to access the table in the database and to calculate the sum of the hours worked and to display it in a textbox? Where should i place the codes?

Need your help urgently.

Can you please send to my private mail an 'address' where your reply will be posted.

Thanks

hi deena,
to get the desired result, here is the sample code
command1_click( )
While Not rs.EOF
If rs(1) = lststafftype.Li st(lststafftype .ListIndex) And rs(3) = lstproject.List (lstproject.Lis tIndex) And CDate(rs(2)) >= CDate(txtstartd ate.Text) And CDate(rs(2)) <= CDate(txtendate .Text) Then
hrsworked = hrsworked + rs(5)
End If
rs.MoveNext
Wend
txthrsworked.te xt = hrsworked

hmm.. to connect your database with the front end, there are so many others who have posted the code. check for sashi's too. you will find them.

I'm working with a SQL query for a Human Resources database. Its intended purpose is to find all the paycheck records with a check date (prckhist.chkdate ) more recent than eleven days past the employee's last raise (hrpersnl.p_paydate). It then totals the hours the employee worked from those records (prdehist.units), and if the total is within 40 hours of a threshold (hrpersnl.p_jmisc3) then the employee's name and information is returned, and...

Hello, I have 2 time fields dynamically generated in format "m/d/y H:m". Could someone show me a good function to calculate the time interval difference in minutes? I played with strtotime() but but that only gave me difference in hours and only if the times were on the same day (after wrapping with date() function). TIA

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,...
