[mso] Re: Access: Converting Date To Year For Parameter Look Ups

Making progress . . . this returns 4 rows of 1905 as the year.  I have
dates ranging from 2001 to 2004, so I am looking for only 4 rows returned,
but how is it returning 1905? I've got the field in the table as date/time,
medium format, I don't want it formatted as year on the main table.  Is
that causing a problem?  Thank you again, Cathy

Cathy--

If I understand you correctly, you're trying to use the Format function
n the date field to populate the drop down. If so, you should be using
the DatePart function as follows:

SELECT DISTINCT DatePart("yyyy",[ClassCompleted]) AS [Year]
FROM tblClassInformation
GROUP BY DatePart("yyyy",[ClassCompleted])
HAVING (((DatePart("yyyy",[ClassCompleted])) Is Not Null))
ORDER BY DatePart("yyyy",[ClassCompleted]);

Hope this helps...

Jim, here is the SQL for the query.  The date field is formatted as
yyyy. Hope this helps, thanks.

SELECT DISTINCT tblClassInformation.ClassCompleted AS [Year] FROM
tblClassInformation GROUP BY tblClassInformation.ClassCompleted
HAVING (((tblClassInformation.ClassCompleted) Is Not Null)) ORDER BY
tblClassInformation.ClassCompleted;
