    Trunc alternative in Access


    Below query works correctly in Oracle,but it gives error when run in the access as 'Undefined function 'trunc' in expression'.The trunc function in this query displays the date and hour as '12/9/2009 1:00:00 AM'.which function in access supports this type of calculation.

    SELECT count(order_id), trunc(ORDER_DATE,'HH'),sum(subtotal)
    FROM order_vw
    WHERE (ORDER_DATE between to_date('12/9/2009 00:00:01','MM/DD/YYYY HH24:MI:SS')
    and to_date('12/9/2009 23:59:59','MM/DD/YYYY HH24:MI:SS'))
    group by trunc(ORDER_DATE,'HH')
    order by trunc(ORDER_DATE,'HH')

    Maybe this will work for you: Format(Me.YourDate, "mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss")

    Your suggestion works but it is displaying every donation per second
    I need it to be displayed for every hour.Suggest me a modified query.

    SELECT usertrack_plt, format(ORDER_DATE,'mm/dd/YYYY hh:mm:ss') as [Date and Hr] , count(order_id) as [Orders], sum(subtotal) as [Donations] FROM amounts_prod WHERE (ORDER_DATE >= #2009-12-10 00:00:00# and ORDER_DATE <= #2009-12-11 00:00:00#) AND (usertrack_plt IN ('STJGENLKALSAC1000001','STJGENLKALSAC1000002','ST JGENLKALSAC1000003')) group by format(ORDER_DATE,'mm/dd/YYYY hh:mm:ss'), usertrack_plt order by format(ORDER_DATE,'mm/dd/YYYY hh:mm:ss')
