MS Access - Display days as number of years in combobox












0














The row source of my combobox is set to "365;730;1095;1461;1826".



I need to store the values in my table as number of days but I want to display them as years (1;2;3;4;5) from my combobox.



Is it possible? How?



I've tried =Year([Duration]) but it doesn't work.

Use two columns:



"1;365;2;730;3;1095;4;1461;5:1826"


and hide the second column.



That said, the count will only always be true for four years due to the leap years.

  • No need to be super accurate so leap years won't be a problem. Thanks.
