Hello Guys I want to make a Hotel Reservation system..
I have 3 combobox.. Lets say it is cboDays, cboMonth, cboYear.. When the form load I want to add items in cboDays, cboMonth, cboYears the days,month, and years. If I choose a month, cboDays will list all days depending if it is 31 days, 30 days, 29 days or 28 days. And also if I choose a leap year. Thank you guys in advance..
If I choose a month, cboDays will list all days
The built-in DateTime.DaysInMonth function calculates the number of days for a given year and month:
Dim numberOfDays = DateTime.DaysInMonth(year, month)
and it handles leap years too.
When the selected value of cboYear or cboMonth changes you need to update the values available in cboDays.

I am trying to add a column to my data set that has a custom week number based on a specific start date.
For example, lets say that that a product launched Thursday September 6, and I want to measure signups by week. In this case, I would want September 6 - September 12 to be Week 1, September 13 - 19 as week 2, etc.
The two options I have found are using the datefirst function and creating a custom calendar table, but which of these would be easier to implement and more efficient?
Thanks!
Much better if you use date first - date end so that the users can also understand it easily.
I want to format a date as follows: Y17W15, but there is no option to set the start of the year. However, there is no consistent way of calculating this. I cannot just subtract a month (other times I will need to show the month too), and I cannot just add 4 or 5 to the week field due to leap years, etc.
Our year starts on a Saturday that is closest to December 1. This means if November 30 is on a Saturday, the Fiscal Year will start on November 30.
Currently what I have is below, which works fine except it shows Y17W10. The easiest option in my head is to have a way to actually set the start of a fiscal year, but if I have to go through a bunch of if statements it's okay as long as it works.
MsgBox(Format(Now, """Y""yy""W""mm"""))
Thanks for your time!
I am aware that: Given a 4-5-4 calendar and a date, how do I determine what fiscal week that date falls in? exists but I am looking for an answer that isn't as hard-coded.

I am brand new to Oracle. I have figured out most of what I need but one field is driving me absolutely crazy. Seems like it should be simple but I think my brain is fried and I just can't get my head around it. I am trying to produce a Sales report. I am doing all kinds of crazy things based on the Invoice Date. The last thing I need to do is to be able to create a Week Number so I can report on weekly sales year vs year. For purposes of this report my fiscal year starts exactly on December 1 (regardless of day of week it falls on) every year. For example, Dec 1-7 will be week 1, etc. I can get the week number using various functions but all of them are based on either calendar year or ISO weeks. How can I easily generate a field that will give me the number of the week since December 1? Thanks so much for your help.
Forget about the default week number formats as that won't work for this specific requirement. I'd probably subtract the previous 1 December from invoice date and divide that by 7. Round down, add 1 and you should be fine.
select floor(
(
trunc(invoiceDate) -
case
-- if December is current month, than use 1st of this month
when to_char(invoiceDate, 'MM') = '12' then trunc(invoiceDate, 'MM')
-- else, use 1st December of previous year
else add_months(trunc(invoiceDate, 'YYYY'), -1)
end
) / 7
) + 1
from dual;
I've periods of time every 15 days, MOM and EOM.
What I need to check is if a date value on a date field is prior to the current period minus 1.
For example, if today is 12/29, the period is 12/31, and i need to check
if prior < 12/15
How can i get the EOM (End Of Month, i mean, the last day of the month) and the MOM (Middle of month, it's like every 15th of month) with GETDATE() function without doing a DATEADD with -15 days (because in feb will be fail, and i don't care the month)
Any help or work around will be preciated.
Thanks
If you need the value 15 then put it in your code.
If that is against your company's policies then challenge the person that made that policy. Writing 5 lines of code to replace two characters is not a good coding...
If writing the 5 lines made your application much more flexible then maybe I could understand, but you are still "hard coding" 15 into your comparisons.
Thinking in a work around, what I did it was this:
If actual day < 15 then get the month actual, convert to the first day of the month (01) and minus 1 day. I get the last day of the prior month. (EOM - 1 period)
If actual day > 15, then the prior period (MOM - 1 period) is: 15 of actual month.
It's a query with if structure.
If someone has a better answer, please answer it and I'll be accept it.
Thanks :)
Greetings SQL gurus,
I don't know if you can help me, but I will try. I have several large databases grouped by year (each year in a different database). I want to be able to compare values from a particular week from one year to the next. For example, "show me week 17 of 2008 vs. week 17 of 2002."
I have the following definition of weeks that ideally I would use:
Only 52 weeks each year and 7 days a week (that only takes 364 days),
The first day of the first week starts from January 2nd - which means we do not use January 1st data, and
In leap year, the first day of the first week ALSO starts from the January 2nd plus we skip Feb. 29.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Best to avoid creating a table because then you have to update and maintain it to get your queries to work.
DatePart('ww',[myDate]) will give you the week number. You may run into some issues though deciding which week belongs to which year - for example if Jan 1 2003 is on Wednesday does the week belong as week 52 in 2002 or week 1 in 2003? Your accounting department will have a day of the week that is your end of week (usually Sat). I usually just pick the year that has the most days in it. DatePart will always count the first week as 1 and in the case of the example above the last week as 53. You may not care that much either way. You can create queries for each year
SELECT DatePart('ww',[myDate]) as WeekNumber,myYearTable.* as WeekNumber
FROM myYearTable
and then join the queries to get your data. You'll loose a couple days at the end of the year if one table has 52 weeks and one has 53 (most will show as 53). Or you can do it by your weekending day - this always gives you Saturday which would push a late week into the following year.
(7-Weekday([myDate]))+[myDate]
then
DatePart('ww',(7-Weekday([myDate]))+[myDate])
Hope that helps
To get the week number
'to get the week number in the year
select datepart( week, datefield)
'to get the week number in the month
select (datepart(dd,datefield) -1 ) / 7 + 1
You don't need to complicate things thinking about leap years, etc. Just compare weeks mon to sun
SInce you havea a specifc defintion of when the week starts that is differnt that the standard used by the db, I think a weeks table is the solution to your problem. For each year create a table that defines the dates contained in each week and the week number. Then by joining to that table as well as the relevant other tables, you can ask for just the data for week 17.
Table structure
Date Week
20090102 1
20090103 1
etc.
I needed to create a query that shows BOTH year AND week numbers, like 2014-52. The year shows correct when you use the Datepart() formula to convert week 53 to week 52 in the previous year, but shows the wrong year for the week that was week 1 previously that should be week 52 now. It show that week as 2015-52 instead of 2014-52.
Furthermore, it sorts the data wrong if you only use only the week number, eg:
2014-1,2014-11,2014-2
To overcome this I created the following query to insert a 0 and also to check for days in week 1 that should still fall under week 52.
ActualWeek: IIf(DatePart("ww",[SomeDate],1,3)=52 And DatePart("ww",[SomeDate])=1, DatePart("yyyy",[SomeDate],1,3)-1,DatePart("yyyy",[SomeDate],1,3)) & "-" & IIf(DatePart("ww",[SomeDate],1,3)<10,"0" & DatePart("ww",[SomeDate],1,3),DatePart("ww",[SomeDate],1,3))
