Display Current Time and past 3 hours

Post Author: gronkette
CA Forum: Formula
I have a report that I need to display only the current hour and the past 3 hours rolling forward.
Example:  If it is now 12:00 (noon)  I would like to see the data for 10:00, 11:00 and 12:00
Then we it is 1:00 pm, I would like to see the date for 11:00, 12:00 and 1:00 - etc....
thanks!

The formula works just fine in my report, all I can say is make sure that the database field is DATETIME and that the values do indeed have date time.

    How to display current date and time together in pl sql block
    i have written code below but it gives me error
    SET SERVEROUTPUT ON
    DECLARE
    TODAY DATE;
    BEGIN
    SELECT CURRENT_DATE || TO_CHAR(CURRENT_DATE, 'FM HH:MI:SS AM') INTO TODAY
    FROM DUAL;
    DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('TODAY');
    END;
    ERROR at line 3:
    ORA-01830: date format picture ends before converting entire input string
    ORA-06512: at line 4

    Here's how you do it:
    DECLARE
    TODAY varchar2(100);
    BEGIN
    SELECT TO_CHAR(CURRENT_DATE, 'MM-DD-YYYY HH:MI:SS AM') INTO TODAY
    FROM DUAL;
    DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(TODAY);
    END;
    Notes:
    1. You select to_char(...) into today, so today should be declared as char, not date.
    2. dbms_output.put_line('today') will print "today", you want to print the variable not the string, so no quotes.
    3. date variables contain both date and time, no need to concatenate

  • Printing current time and date on a pdf document

    I wish for a pdf document to print the current time and date in the same place at the foot of each page, to the following format:
    Aug 04 2009, 5:11 pm.
    How do I do this please? Annoyingly I have managed it in the past, but when I open up my old documents and paste the relevant field into my new document, it either prints the old date/time or else prints the present date/time, but then doesn't refresh the next time I try to print - ie it stays at one date/time.
    I'd like to start again from scratch so that I have a better idea of how it works!!
    Regards
    Tony

    Eureka!
    I now have the answer, and hopefully this will help anybody else with a similar problem.
    In Acrobat:
    Create a text field and place it in the chosen place on the pdf form. Label it "datebox" in the General tab of Text Field Properties, and apply your character styles in the Appearance tab.
    Under the "Advanced" menu, go to "Document Processing" and then "Set Document Actions"
    Click on "Document Will Print" and then hit the "Edit" button. In the "JavaScript Editor" paste the following:
    var myfield=getField("datebox");
    var date=new Date();
    date=util.printd("mmm dd yyyy, h:MM tt", date);
    myfield.value=date;
    Hit OK.
    You have now given the instruction that whenever you print, the field named "datebox" will print the current time and date in the following format:

  • Inserting current time and date in a form

    Feel silly here, but I can't seem to find a way to insert form fields that will display currnet time and date, I see where it can be done for a digital signature, but that's not what I need. This is for a client sign in sheet. I want to know what date and time the form is printed, without having to manually enter that data. Thanks.

    Actualy, looking around the web I found another Adobe forum where you answered another person's question about using a check box to populate a text field with the date, which is actually what I really need, as I want to be able to print the form with or without the date and time appearing. Here's the script you posted:
    // Mouse up script for check box
    {function () {
         // Get a reference to the text field
         var f = getField ("text");
         // Set the value of the text field
         if (event.target.value !== "off") {
              f.value = util.printd("mm/dd/yyy", newDate ());
              } else {
                    f.value = " ";
    I copied and pasted the code straight into the mouse up event for the check box, and then changed the text box name to the actuall name of the date text field, and the error I get is "too much recursion".

  • Compare current time and date with last modified?

    Compare current time and date with last modified?
    What is the ideal way to compared the last modified from the File class with the current date and time? last modifed value from File class is a long.

    Like that?That tests whether the last modified time is before "now"--that is if the file was not modified in the future, so, yes.

  • Where can I find the current time and date of Time Capsule?

    I have a home network consisint of 2 x Time Capsules and 1 x Airport Express.  All is working fine.  I would like to set up access control for one machine connecting to the network and I can see I can do this under Access Control on the Airport Utility.  My question is where can I find the current time and date setting for these devices? 
    I can set them to use the time.apple.com server to set the time automatically, but I can't find where to see the current time and date of the device.  The only place I can see reference to the time and date is on the logs and statistics under the Advanced tab of the AirPort Untility.

    I don't think you can change the time and date on the TC itself, it just connects to a time server (and you set your own time zone).

  • I am trying to write a heartbeat program which takes the current time and writes

    I cant seem to get the operators on the format date/time string vi to work for concatenating the "-" between the year and month
    Anybody know how to do this one?

    You should not need to use special operaors for the format date/time string, the format should simply be"%Y-%m-%d"

  • How to get current time and date??

    How to get current time and date from my PC time and date to the java application??
    i use java.util.* package but got error, that is:
    - java.util.* and java.sql.* class are match
    - abstract class cannot be instantiated
    so what can i do, pls guide...thanks...

    There is a method in the System class that will return the current system time. You could also instantiate a Date, Time, Timestamp, or Calendar object, all of which get created with the system time by default.
    Don't import *. Import the specific classes you need.
    Next time, post the actual text of the exceptions/compile errors. If you make people guess, most just won't bother.

  • Displaying Current Date and Time in JSP

    Hi,
    I need to insert the current date time in Ms SQL Server Database using jsp page. The format of the code willbe
    insert into table(update_date) values ('2007-01-01 10:02:21');
    But i am not getting how to display the current date and time ie. 2007-01-01 10:02:21 using jsp.
    I have tried using
    SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");
    GregorianCalendar cal = new GregorianCalendar();
    String dd = sdf.format(cal.getTime());
    insert into table(update_date) values (dd);
    But it didnot get inserted data.
    Can anybody figure out with simple ideas.
    Thank You

    Why then are you trying to insert the current date on a table?
    To show the current date on the JSP you might try
    <%=new Date()%>Or the way you had it on your first post with the date formatter and then use the <%=%> tags. Anyway, it seems to me I'm not really understanding what you actually want to do :-p
    P.S. NOW() is a MySQL function too, not only MSSQL server (didn't even know it had it too ;-))
    mysql> insert into a(up) values (now());
    Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
    mysql> select * from a;
