(EXCEL)VBA Spin button which steps through in an sql databases date time
- by Gulredy
I have an sql Database table in MySQL which have lots of rows with varied date time values. For example:
2012-08-21 10:10:00 <-- with these date there are around 12 rows
2012-08-21 15:31:00 <-- with these date there are around 5 rows
2012-08-22 11:40:00 <-- with these date there are around 10 rows
2012-08-22 12:17:00 <-- with these date there are around 9 rows
2012-08-22 12:18:00 <-- with these date there are around 7 rows
2012-08-25 07:21:00 <-- with these date there are around 6 rows
If the user clicks on the SpinButton1_SpinUp() or SpinButton1_SpinDown() button then it should do the following:
The SpinButton1_SpinUp() button should filter out those data from an sql table which is the next after what we are currently on now.
Example: We have currently selected: 2012-08-21 15:31:00. The user hits the SpinUp button then the program selects those date from the database, which is the next higher value like this one: 2012-08-22 11:40:00.
So the user hits the SpinUp button the data which is selected in the database will change from those with date: 2012-08-21 15:31:00 to those with date: 2012-08-22 11:40:00
The SpinButton1_SpinDown() will do exactly the reverse of the SpinUp button.
When the user hits the SpinDown button the data which is selected in the database will change from those with date: 2012-08-21 15:31:00 to those with date 2012-08-21 10:10:00
So I think the date which we are currently on, should be stored in a variable.
But on button hit not every bigger or lower data should be selected in the database, only those which are the closest bigger or the closest lower date.
How can I do this?
I hope I described my problem understandable. My native language is not english, so misunderstandings can occur! Please ask if you don't understand something! Thank you for reading!
