    Access unable to report on items from "Last Week"

    Hi Bob, I know posting my DB would be helpful, but I can't post any of it due to security reasons. I posted the query criteria (see above) I used in some of my queries. Does that help diagnose the problem? -tungkee

    Access unable to report on items from "Last Week"

    There is definitely something wrong with Access in this regard.... I opened my table and filtered the "Opened date" field using predefined filters Access offers. I select the field "Opened Date"-->Date Filters-->Last week from the drop down menu, and nothing is returned although there are...

    Access unable to report on items from "Last Week"

    Thanks for the quick reply Bob. You may be right. My query uses the following to search on the previous week: Year([Opened Date])* 53 + DatePart("ww", [Opened Date]) = Year(Date())* 53 + DatePart("ww", Date()) - 1 I got that directly from the Microsoft Access website here...

    Access unable to report on items from "Last Week"

    I have a report set to return a list of items that were opened last week. It has been working flawlessly until this morning 1/2/08. I ran the report which should have returned new opened items from 12/23 - 12/29, but doesn't return anything.. I suspect this is happening because of the change...

    Including dynamic date period in reports - help

    I'm assuming that DateAdd is a field that you assume is in my table. In that case I'd use my Date Opened field. But is there a way to do this without referencing any fields? BTW the expression didn't work for me. I kept getting a, "The expression you entered contains invalid syntax. You...

    Including dynamic date period in reports - help

    That was something I contemplated, but thats almost the same thing as manually typing the date period each time I run the report. I need something more self sufficient. An expression that will just automatically return last week's date period without me doing anything.

    Including dynamic date period in reports - help

    The report already returns the information needed from the previous week. What I'd like is for the title of my report to list the date period for the previous week. So for example, if I run a report today (12/18/07), the report will return last week's items. The title of the report should...
