What value must I use with this?

[Arcadia]

Hello everyone

I hope that someone can help me out with this stupid question :banghead:

By a mistake all departure times and flight number of KL723, after 1 May 2013 have to increase by 1 hour automatic!
So i have to make a query that will do it automatic.

Does someone know the right value i have to type in the critiria box of date and the critira box of time ??

For a screenshot please send me a message!

I really hope someone can help me out

You should look at doing an update query.

Here's a refresher on the subject: http://www.databasedev.co.uk/update_query.html

You make it sound like Date and Time are seperate fields, which is a bad idea, you can use the General Date format of the Date/Time field type to get the date and time into one field. If you are using 2 fields to store this data, now is a good instance to store it correctly.

The only criteria you would use is on the flight number field ("KL723") and the date field (>#5/1/2013# or >#1/5/2013# depending on your country).

Okay.. but that only shows the value date.. I also want to know what to put into the time critira to increase it with one 1 hour.

And i really want to leave them in two separate fields

Any logic or rationale behind that?

Criteria are limiting parameters. You are not limiting the time value, ergo, there is no time criterion.

If your question is 'how do I calculate the new time?', then you want to use the DateAdd function (http://www.techonthenet.com/access/functions/date/dateadd.php)

I tried this in the data field but it does not work

DateAdd("h";+1;>#1-5-2013#)

Why don't you post your SQL statement and lets see if we can get you on the right track.

SELECT Vlucht.[Vliegtuig nummer], Vlucht.Datum, Vlucht.Vertrektijd
FROM Vlucht;

Try this:

UPDATE Flights SET Flights.FTime = DateAdd("h",1,[FTime])
WHERE (((Flights.Flight)="KL723") AND ((Flights.FDate)>#5/13/2013#));
