Filter on a Date
Dennis Schall

I have a date time field coming from a linked table to sql.  i am using a data sheet to display table .  When I put in a date to filter on , I get nothing.  In other words, I want to look at all records completed on 3/15/2020 irregardless on time.  Do you have an access 2016 tutorial to show me how to do this?

Hi Dennis. It really shouldn't matter where your data is coming from. Whether it's a native Access table or a linked table to SQL Server, Access should treat the data the same. Should. I've seen weird things, but 99% of the time it's not a problem. The most common problem I see is that people have a Date field that is storing a date with a TIME component. This happens if you use the Now() function in the default value, for example. So now filtering only on a specific date will only show you records that have that EXACT date at midnight. I recommend using a query and setting the criteria to >=#1/1/2020
