Convert a string to a date in Access
e.g. cdate(format("20091231", "####/##/##"))
So, in your case it will be
SELECT cdate(format(mystringFieldThatIsInYYYYMMDDFormat, "####/##/##"))
FROM myData
Convert date time string to date
You can get your desired result with one Format()
instead of two.
SELECT Format(CDate(txndate),"dd-mm-yyyy hh:nn:ss") AS Expr1
FROM January2015;
Actually Format()
will accept your ymd date string without the need to first convert it to Date/Time, so you could eliminate CDate()
if you prefer.
SELECT Format(txndate,"dd-mm-yyyy hh:nn:ss") AS Expr1
FROM January2015;
Note however the datatype of that calculated field will be text, not Date/Time because Format()
always returns a string.
Convert yyyymmdd number or string to true Date value in MS Access
In Access you'll need to use the DateSerial() function:
DateSerial(Left([DateField], 4), Mid([DateField], 5, 2), Right([DateField], 2))
Access - string to date - date + time
Vasku, try this:
CDate(Replace(Date_creat,"T"," "))
To test it put copy this to Immediate window of VBE:
?CDate(Replace("2020-01-01T02:39:45","T"," " ))
After hitting Enter you should get this result:
1/1/2020 2:39:45 AM
How to convert a string to date and extract values in Access query
Access can't cope with the milliseconds in your date strings.
Use Left()
to exclude them and feed the resulting substring to CDate()
.
SELECT CDate(Left(gmt, 20)) AS date_from_string
FROM Table1;
Once you have a valid Date/Time value, you can use Year(<Date/Time value>)
or DatePart("yyyy", <Date/Time value>)
to extract the year. And DatePart("y", <Date/Time value>)
will give you the day of the year.
