Error Syntax Error Offending Command Nostringval
I have a form with two unbound text boxes formatted to short date and an OK button. My button code syntax error in date in query expression access 2013 is as follows: Private Sub cmdOK_Click() Dim strFilter As String strFilter = "Between #" & Me.txtStartDate.Value & "# And #" & Me.txtEndDate.Value & "#" 'Open Report before applying the filter DoCmd.OpenReport "rptDisbursementSummaryReport", acViewPreview With Reports![rptDisbursementSummaryReport] http://forums.devarticles.com/microsoft-access-development-49/syntax-error-in-date-in-query-expression-10887.html .Filter = strFilter .FilterOn = True End With End Sub I am getting the following error message: Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression '(Between #12/12/2007# And #11/12/2008#)'. Many thanks Dec 11 '08 #1 Post Reply Share this Question 5 Replies Expert 2.5K+ P: 3,072 nico5038 The filtering of the report can be passed by using the WHERE parameter of the DoCmd.OpenReport like: Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers PrivateSubcmdOK_Click() DimstrFilterAsString https://bytes.com/topic/access/answers/857910-date-syntax-error-query-expression strFilter="Between#"&Me.txtStartDate.Value&"#And#"&Me.txtEndDate.Value&"#" 'OpenReportbeforeapplyingthefilter DoCmd.OpenReport"rptDisbursementSummaryReport",acViewPreview,,strFilter EndSub Nic;o) Dec 11 '08 #2 reply P: 31 OzNet Thanks for the advice Nic;o) However, I am still getting the Syntax error. I suspect it is something to do with this but I am not sure what is wrong. strFilter = "Between #" & Me.txtStartDate.Value & "# And #" & Me.txtEndDate.Value & "#" Thanks Dec 11 '08 #3 reply Expert 2.5K+ P: 3,072 nico5038 Dates are sometimes mis-interpreted due to the local settings, I always use a format statement: Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers "Between#"&Format(Me.txtStartDate,"mm-dd-yyyy")&"#And#"&Format(Me.txtEndDate,"mm-dd-yyyy")&"#" Oops, also specify which field to test so the statement should look like: "TableDateField between xxx and yyy" Just give it a try. Nic;o) Dec 11 '08 #4 reply P: 31 OzNet Thanks Nic'o I tried: strFilter = "DisbursDate Between #" & Format(Me.txtStartDate.Value, mm - dd - yyyy) & "# And #" & Format(Me.txtEndDate.Value, mm - dd - yyyy) & "#" but I still got the error. I tried a different approach which is now working: the OK button code is: Private Sub cmdOK_Click() DoCmd.OpenReport "rptDisbursementSummaryReport", acViewPreview DoCmd.Close acForm, Me.Name End Sub In the query field DisbursDate I added: >=[Forms]![frmMdlDisbursementSummaryReport]![txtStartDate] And <=[Forms]![frmMdlDisbursementSummaryReport]![txtEndDate] It is doing what I want it to do, Thanks for your su

25, 2004. Timothy M Hodgson Guest Using Access 2003, the query SELECT * FROM anyTable WHERE [datetime] = #25.03.2004 10:16:43# returns the error: Syntax error in date in query expression. My OS is Windows 2003 Standard Server, my regional setting is for Switzerland (Italian), the date format is dd.mm.yyyy. If I change the query to use US (English) date formatting, e.g. #3/25/2004 10:16:43#, the query runs without error. I've also tried UK (English) formatting, #25/03/2004 10:16:43# without any problem. The problem appears to be that Access does not recognize the dot/period date format separator. Is this a bug in the Jet Engine or do I need to do something different with my query? Tim Hodgson Timothy M Hodgson, Mar 25, 2004 #1 Advertisements Gerald Stanley Guest It is a standard (rather than a bug) that date strings have to be entered in the US format mm/dd/yy and enclosed in ##. The reason that the UK example worked is because the particular date was unambiguous. Had it been 3/1/2004, the Jet engine would have assumed 1st March not 3rd Jan.
