Error Type Mismatch In The Default Value
vote 2 down vote favorite I'm trying to convert a text field into a date using CDate() in a recordset but keep getting a type mismatch error. The input text format is MMDDYYYY. Does CDate not recognize this format? Do I need a separate function? Any ideas? Text Date -> Converted Date --------- -------------- 04122012 -> 04/12/2012 Dim db As DAO.Database Dim rst As DAO.Recordset Set error type mismatch found unit db = CurrentDb Set rst = db.OpenRecordset("tbl_dates", Type:=dbOpenDynaset) Do Until rst.EOF rst.Edit rst![Converted Date]=CDate(rst![Text Date]) rst.Update rst.MoveNext Loop Set rst = Nothing Set db = Nothing ms-access vba share|improve this question edited May 10 '12 at 8:45 asked May 8 '12 at 16:43 regulus 3443516 add a comment| 2 Answers 2 active oldest votes up vote 4 down vote accepted CDate() won't accept your date string without some type of delimiter between the month, day, and year parts. This attempt fails with a type mismatch error. ? CDate("04122012") If it's helpful, you can use the IsDate() function to check whether your date strings are in a format CDate() will accept. ? IsDate("04122012") False ? IsDate("04-12-2012") True ? IsDate("04/12/2012") True ? CDate("04-12-2012") 4/12/2012 bar = "04122012" : Debug.Print CDate(Left(bar,2) & "-" & _ Mid(bar,3,2) & "-" & Right(bar,4)) 4/12/2012 Edit: If there is a mismatch between your system's locale setting and the format of your date strings, you can transform those date strings to yyyy-mm-dd format to avoid problems with CDate(). bar = "04122012" : Debug.Print CDate(Right(bar,4) & "-" & _ Left(bar,2) & "-" & Mid(bar,3,2)) 4/12/2012 share|improve this answer edited May 9 '12 at 16:56 ans

IF I use the Visual basic adate = CDate(#1/2/2010#) all works perfectly and adate would have the value 01/02/2010 in date format. Hear is where the problem starts. the date is captured from an ASP Form using form dropdowns for day and month so the code looks like this Dim xday, xmonth, http://forums.iis.net/t/1224666.aspx?CDate+Type+Mismatch+Error xyear, adate xday = Request.Form("xday") xmonth = Request.Form("xmonth") xyear = Request.Form("xyear") adate = CDate("#" & aday & "/" & amoth & "/" & ayear & "#") Result is a Type Mismatch CDate("#"& aday & "/"& amonth & "/" & ayear & "#") Is effectively equivalent to CDate("#01/02/2010#") Causing the Error as the required value#01/02/2010# is not a string value. Question: How do I convert the Concatenated String"#01/02/2010#" into the correct format for CDate to work correctly so that the value adate can be inserted into a Database Date Field? The work Around uses the Month Names I.e February and code CDate(aday & " " & amonth & " " & ayear) Which does work but requires the extra coding later on to covert amonth to a numeric month number.

You could refer to the following code to format a date. Dim xday As Integer = 1 Dim xmonth As Integer = 2 Dim xyear As Integer = 2010 Dim adate As DateTime = New DateTim

Note code snippets posted are just that and do not include error handling that is required in real world applications, but avoid On Error Resume Next dim all variables as required as often i have done so elsewhere in my code but only posted the relevant part come back and mark your original post as resolved if your problem is fixed pete Reply With Quote Aug 23rd, 2007,07:56 AM #3 si_the_g
converts an expression into a Date (or Date/Time) data type.The syntax of the function is:CDate( Expression )Where the Expression argument is the expression that that you want to convert to a Date.CDate Expression TypesThe VBA Date data type holds both date and time information. Therefore the Expression that is supplied to the CDate function must be able to be interpreted as a valid VBA date or time.The CDate function can interpret text representations of dates and times that are in a recognised Excel format. However, the function is unable to interpret dates that include the text description of the weekday (Sunday, Monday, etc).VBA CDate Function ExamplesIn the following VBA code, the CDate function is used to convert various text strings and numeric values into VBA dates and times.' Convert strings and numeric values into dates and/or timesDim dt1 As DateDim dt2 As DateDim dt3 As DateDim dt4 As DateDim dt5 As Datedt1 = CDate( "12/31/2015" )' dt1 is now equal to the date 12/31/2015dt2 = CDate( "Jan 1 2016 3:00 AM" )' dt2 is now equal to the date/time 1/1/2016 3:00:00 AMdt3 = CDate( "12:00:00" )' dt3 is now equal to the time 12:00:00 PMdt4 = CDate( 42369 )' dt4 is now equal to the date 12/31/2015dt5 = CDate( 0.5 )' dt5 is now equal to the time 12:00:00 PMNote that, in the above VBA code:The CDate function interprets the number 42369 as a date value, and converts this to the date 12/31/2015.The CDate function interprets the decimal 0.5 as a time value, and converts this to the time 12:00:00 PM.VBA CDate Function ErrorIf the Expression that is supplied to the CDate function cannot be converted to a date or time, you will get the error:Run-time error '13': Type mismatch Return to the VBA Functions PageReturn to the Excel VBA Tutorial Page Home Basic Excel Built-In Excel Functions ▾ List of All Excel Functions Text Functions Logical Functions Information Functions Date & Time Functions Lookup & Reference Functions Math Functions Statistical Functions Database Functions Financial Functions Engineering Functions Excel 2013 New Functions Excel Vlookup Tutorial Pivot Table Tutorial Excel Formulas Array Formulas Tips & Tricks Common Excel Errors Excel Templates Excel Macros Excel VBA Tutorial Built-In VBA Functions Excel 2003 vs 2007 Recommended Books Disclaimer Privacy Policy Copyright © 2008-2016 ExcelFunctions.net
