    Date or NA

    Hi, I am new to Access. Currently I am creating a table to store some of my datas. One of the field which I have created was "Date Amended" where the data type is "Date/Time" however I will also need to key in "NA" or "-" in the table whenever it is necessary. How do I do it since I have set the data type as "Date/Time".



    Thks.

    If you want to keep this as a Datetime field, then you cannot also enter "-" or "N/A". If you really need to enter this, then consider making it a text field, although I do not recommend that.

    Can you simply leave that field blank for records where a date amended does not apply?
