I'm using Northwind DB in MS Access I'm facing problem in viewing the data with specific dates. I have created a new form and I want to get the data in the form for my end user. So if he specifies from and till dates the corresponding data should appear in the form.
How it can be done in form ?
Ex. In table dbo_invoices I want to know the order list for specific time I.e ddmmyyyy to ddmmyyyy and display all the elements in the given time.
How can it be done.
Thank you. Your help will be appreciated.
In order to use dates as criteria you should read here :

As for your specific need in the query you should use on the date field
Between [dateFrom] and [dateTo]

In my Access frontal base, I have a query that select certain data from an other Access database. It works fine.
Using a Form assistant I call all of the data selected using my query in the form. and it works fine.
The only issue I have, is that I want to modify the content of certain column in That form, but I can't.
Here is more details :
To create my form
I used a form assistant as shown below ->
I chosed the query I want and called all the columns.
**Result : **
I got the result I'm looking for except for one point is that I can't modify the form.
I ideally want to be able to only modify the 2 last columns ('Identifiant candidat' & 'Candidat Nom') But if it's not possible than being able to modify all of my form is good.
Thank you so much for your time and help
following your question #HansUp in the query designer this is what I have
So it's not possible to modify it
I have an Access database in which a report is pulled and displayed based on city and state. There is a form where the user selects city and state and a query is run, then a report displayed based on that query. I want to sort the data from the query by Warranty Start date(WSD) then Model #. The problem is that all of the dates aren't in the same format and if I try to format the WSD column as a date field Access Deletes at least 1000 records. Currently all fields are formatted as short text. Is there a way that I can sort the data by date without the format being the same for all? I have attached a screenshot of some records to show the issue.
If you need the sql query I can provide that as well.
If you wish to sort by the date, then you can use:
IIf(IsDate([WSD]), CDate([WSD]), DateSerial(Val([WSD]),1,1)) AS WarrantyDate
I've trying to build a query that will look at various fields that are filled out in an associated form. In particular, I'm looking to query for all records > a certain date. This column in the database is stored as a DateTime. Right now, my query looks as follows: (Note that fromDate is just a textbox.
SELECT * FROM ACM_TABLE where DT_TM>[Forms]![Form1]!fromDate
When I replace this with a hardcoded date in the form mm/dd/yyyy, it returns results, but querying based on what is entered in the form does not. Is there some type of conversion I need to do?
Thanks
I am quite a newbie to MS Access.I am working with a search form in MS Access and I want to create a date picker in which I can select multiple dates which will be an input for a Query that is used to search and display the results from my table for the records that have the selected dates. I did some research on this,however I was unable to find out a feasible solution for my problem.
As I see there are only 2 ways in which this can be done.The first way is that is using two date pickers one for from date and other for to date and then search for the records between these days which is not very feasible for my scenario as I might want to choose two different dates for example 4th of Jan and 6th of Jan and display results for only those days.
The other method is to use a list box which displays all the dates that are present in the database and choose from that however this is not going to work for me as if I have a very long list of dates such as from 1st Jan to 31st Jan then it would be very time consuming and also I might select a date which I do not want to to search for also in the results.
Could anybody suggest me how can I solve this problem.I am looking for a multiple date picker property in access.Is it possible to achieve this through the form properties? If yes how can it be done? Or is there any other solution for this problem?
Thanks in Advance.
I would recommend creating a temp table consisting of two fields, a Yes/No field and a Date field. Populate the date field (don't name it 'date') with all of the dates from your list of dates. Then on your search form add a subform bound to the temp table. Users would simply check the box next to the desired dates. Then modify your query to include the temp table with a join on the date fields and criteria that the Yes/No field is True (Yes).
Its doubtful youre still looking for this but for anyone else that happens accross this topic I modified an existing datepicker to allow selection of any number of non-contiguous dates, and insert them to a table. I posted it on UtterAccess (A great forum for Access questions). A link to the forum topic is below, but you need to create an account to download the example file.

You could combine the two approaches and have
Two textboxes to filter for a short date range (say 1 month dates)
Show the dates in this date range in a multiselect listbox where the user can select the specific dates they need.
I am trying to write an Microsoft Access query from a form with a multi value field being the criteria. The field I am trying to use is called Population and the field is represented in my database as a List Box that allows multiple values and it is in the Building table. The values it allows are the following:
"Singles";"Familes";"Families with Children";"Youth/Young Adults";"Veterans";
The form that I am creating is called HousingSearch.
I am trying to create a form which uses this field, so someone could use the list box and check off the values they want and click on the button which would open a query. I know having done this with single value fields the criteria in the query looks something like
[forms]![HousingSearch]![Building]![Population]
but if you try the same thing for a multi value field nothing is returned for the query. Any help would be appreciated.
From the information you have provided it seems that the phrase [Forms]![HousingSearch]![Building]![Population] are combining a request that starts with a form and then jumps to a table.
You are asking access to find data in a form but the information you're most likely trying to access is in a table. I don't quite understand what you're end result is but I think that you most likely want to refer to your information this way [Building]![Population]. Referring to your data this way makes access look at the table of [Building] and then into the field of [Population].
It's been a while since you posted, if you haven't cleared things up already I hope this helps.
