MS Access Calculating date differences if Dates are Short Text
Is is possible in a Table to Calculate differences between Dates if the Value in the field is considered "short text"?
I am working to convert an Excel macro database into Access one and I have imported the data from the Excel file into an Access Table.
however i realized 2 feilds that count up until closure are now just fixed numbers but need to add up as each day passes until closure
when i imported the Dates became Short Text.
is there an expression that would handle this situation? Each record has a serialized non repeating ID number seperate from access as well.
Dates I have are OfficialissuanceDate, DatePlanSubmitted, DatePlanCompletedSubmitted, DateClosed,
I need 2 calculations that increments daily when DateplanSubmitted and DatePlanCompletedSubmitted are null Both comparing to OfficialIssuanceDate. then stop counting when they are no longer null. (have a date in updated to the record) and retain the value.
I have tried to Google calculating Dates but i get DateDiff function which doesnt appear to work. I've used Access and taken a class on it but never really made a new DB from scratch
