Is it possible to alert the user to possible missing data in Access 2000?
Somehow, the answer will need to use a work-around on Access date
limitations, but I will hold on that for the moment.
My question is of two parts:
1. Suppose a person is born 1875-JUL-20, and there is no death date entered.
2. The user has decided on "102" to be the limit, meaning he wants his
attention drawn to those who have birth dates 102 years (or more) ago but no
death date information was ever entered.
I see the problem of the year 1900 limitation. How then can I work around
this? If it is a VBA solution, is there a source somewhere on the Internet I
can copy it from?
My thinking is this:
I -could- add 2000 to the birth date, get 3875-JUL-20, and use that for a
birth date. (Right?) Then, using today's day of 2005-APR-26 and add 2000 to
be consistent which is 4005-APR-05, and subtract 3875-JUL-20 from
4005-APR-05? At this point (at least in Excel), the result is blank. I am
stymied as to what to do now.
Thank you.
Robert
