Time data entry restriction
"Gina Whipp" <NotInterested[ at ]InViruses.com> 12/3/2008 9:08:15 PM
All,

I am trying to restrict TimeOut field to the times indicated below.
Obviously it is not working and I can't see why. The formating on that
field is Medium Time.

If Me.txtTimeOut >= "12:00 AM" And Me.txtTimeOut <= "05:00 AM" Then
MsgBox "You MUST enter a time between 6:00 am and 11:59 PM!",
vbInformation, "AM/PM"
Me.txtTimeOut = Null
End If
Exit Sub


Thanks in Advance!
Gina Whipp

Literal date/time value must be enclosed in # signs, not
quotes:

If Me.txtTimeOut >= #12:00 AM# And Me.txtTimeOut <= #05:00
AM# Then

Marshall,

Can you tell why entering 10:15 AM generates my message?

If you want times to be limited to >= 6 AM use

If Me.txtTimeOut < #06:00:00 AM# Then

I can't reproduce that effect.

Are you sure the field (in the table) is a Date type field?

I hate it when I see 12:00 AM.

Not because I'm picky, just because there is no agreement, and
no reference. I have to figure it out every time I see that. One of
my Internet Providers has unrestricted Access from 12:00 PM to
12:00 AM. What does that mean? Can you look it up on the
Internet? Good luck at that: you have to figure it out.

In this case, I already know how time is represented in Access,
so I could just say

If Me.txtTimeOut <= #05:00 AM# Then

Conversely, if I didn't know how time was represented in Access,
I would certainly never do time comparisons at all.
