Subject: Re: [AccessD] FW: DateDiff problem in a query
There are times there is simply insufficient data to complete both the
parent and child. In one system I worked on, there were the workers and
then
the companies that they worked for. The company was the parent record
and
the workers were the children.
Before a worker could even work for any company there had to be a
security
check which might take up to a month to complete. After that the worker
could be assigned to a company. This system was sort of backwards to
most
so...
...The worker was initially assigned to company '0' and then re-assigned
to
a real company or to company '1' if they turned out to be 'a person of
interest' or left in the pending company all depending the check results
and
the requirements of the employers.
By using this method the parent and child relationships were always
maintained.
My two cents worth.
Jim

Further to my previous post, if the time span for moving total is to
include only the period upto current date (not the whole current month),
apart from the two months previous to current one, the query would stand
modified as given below.
For getting the moving average in a similar manner, Sum in the
subquery
can be replaced by Avg.

=======================================
SELECT T_Data.*, (Select Sum(Qty) From T_Data As T1 Where 12 *
Year(T1.SDate) + Month(T1.SDate) >= 12 * Year(T_Data.SDate) +
Month(T_Data.SDate) - 2 And T1.SDate <= T_Data.SDate) AS MovingTotal
FROM T_Data
ORDER BY T_Data.SDate;

Chester,
It transpires that your data is as per individual dates and you
are
seeking a query that will show against each date, the moving total for a
span of three months covering the current month as well as two months
prior
to the current month.
Sample query given below, should get you the desired results. Qty
is
the number type field being totaled while SDate is date type field in
table
T_Data. This can be adapted suitably for your specific situation.

Year(T1.SDate) + Month(T1.SDate) >= 12 * Year(T_Data.SDate) +
Month(T_Data.SDate) - 2 And 12 * Year(T1.SDate) + Month(T1.SDate) <=
12 *
Year(T_Data.SDate) + Month(T_Data.SDate)) AS MovingTotal
FROM T_Data
ORDER BY T_Data.SDate;

Tried your idea in the date DateDiff part of the query instead of
DateSerial with the same erroneous results

You can use months in Date functions. Try DateAdd("m", 1, Date) to
get
1
month from the Date.

Subject: DateDiff problem in a query
I have the following query to calculate a moving total. The theory
is to
calculate a total of a given date and the 2 prior dates. For example
the
row of the query with a date of 5/1/2005 should have a total of
vm_wtri
for March, April and May. I am using the DateSerial and DateDiff
functions to go back 2 months. As you can see in the results some
months
this works and some it does not. The number of days back appears to
be
correct. What am I missing? Thanks for the assistance.
SELECT [tbl One Well Water Injection].PID, [tbl One Well Water
Injection].Date, [tbl One Well Water Injection].vm_wtri, (Select
Sum(vm_wtri) From [tbl One Well Water Injection] AS T1 Where T1.Date
>=
[tbl One Well Water Injection].Date
-DateDiff("d",DateSerial(Year([Date]),Month([Date])-2,Day([Date])),[Date
]) And T1.Date <= [tbl One Well Water Injection].Date) AS
MovingTotal, DateSerial(Year([Date]),Month([Date])-2,Day([Date])) AS
[2
Months Prior],
DateDiff("d",DateSerial(Year([Date]),Month([Date])-2,Day([Date])),[Date]
) AS [Days Diff]
FROM [tbl One Well Water Injection]
WHERE ((([tbl One Well Water Injection].Date)>=#1/1/1994#))
ORDER BY [tbl One Well Water Injection].Date;
The results:
PID Date vm_wtri
MovingTotal 2 Months Prior Days Diff
