Autonumber Data/Type Mismatch

Aug 20, 2007

I have two tables, one has the autonumber column, sysid, and then in the process of updating the database via forms the sysid from one table is placed in another (text format). I thought I could use that to link the tables for queries, but I am running into a data/type mismatch error.

Any ideas to get around this?

Thanks!

Column Value Gets Truncated, Any Type Conversion Needed?

Feb 26, 2008

Hi Gurus, need your help yet again.
I have a linked table in Access 2007(link back to SQL Server), and when i look into the values of a 'Memo' Column called "Column_1" in Access, it is just fine.
Now, In a query I am doing the following IIF statement:

Expr1: IIF([table_1].[Column_2]="Cost",[table_1].[Column_1]

But when i see the values of Column_1 now, some of the ending characters are being cut off, i only get half of the entire text.
Should i be doing any type-casting or anything to bring the entire text?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Kon

How To Reset Tables To Change Data Type From Number To Autonumber

Dec 4, 2013

So I have decided that I want my ID's to be AutoNumbers, but at the moment they are currently set as Numbers. I have already inserted data, to test, which has been deleted, however I am now unable to change the ID field back to AutoNumber.

How can I duplicate the tables so that this field can be changed again?

I have like 10 tables with heaps of feild, so remaking them will take long, but I know there is a way using queries, I am just not sure how...

Controlling Autonumber Field - Start Autonumber From 1 Everyday (Composite Key)

Nov 21, 2013

I have two tables linked to each other in one to many relationship. Instead of auto number, the date and shift (Text) is being used as the primary keys (Composite Primary Key). Here is the tables structures,

Payouts Table:
Date: Primary Key
Shift (Day or Night) : Primary Key

Bills Table:
Date: Primary Key
Shift (Day or Night): Primary Key
Autonumber: Primary Key

The tables Payouts and Bills has one to many relationship. One payout row can have many bills. The problem is that I want to start the Autonumber in bills table everyday from 1. As date and shift are different for every day so even if i start bills from 1 everyday, it wont make same primary key. I can do it manually but I want to make it automatically.

AutoNumber

Apr 20, 2006

Hello,

I have a question. I would like to be able to have an autonumber in the main form be applied to text boxes on the subform. So If I enter a name in the main form, an autonumber is generated, then that number is automatically entered into the boxes in my subform. My subform is a datasheet view with many records. I want all the records to have the autonumber generated in the main form. Is there a way to do this. Currently I have the boxes in the subform retrieve the autonumber by setting it equal to the autonumber text box on the main form. I would think that there would be an easier way to accomplish this seemingly simple task.

Thanks,

Adam

Autonumber

Feb 26, 2005

hello,
I am using SQL INSERT INTO where I insert values from my form Me!value1 etc
I have an autonumber in the table where I am using INSERT INTO, and when I exclude the autonumber it says that the number of columns does not match. I tried assigning a number manually in SQL and it works fine, but I can't use autonumber anymore. Is there a way to use autonumber and still do INSERT INTO or is there a way I can find the highest number and put the next highest in there through VBA?

Thanks in advance

Mar 7, 2005

In the main table of my d/base (just testing) - when a new record is entered using a form, the Autonumber Key ID becomes 5E+08.

Whats that imply ? There are some One-To-Many sub tables running off the main table, but I can't see how they could cause a problem.

Autonumber

Jun 2, 2006

Hello everybody,

I have a problem which I couldn't solve.
I have two tables. There're relationships is one to many (1:N).
The first one is Order and the other one is OrderItems.
Order(order_ID,...) and OrderItems(order_ID, lineitem,...).
The compound key of the relation OrderItems is order_ID and lineitem). What I exactly want? I want for every new Order_ID to have restarting count of lineitem.

example:

Order_ID, LineItem
1 1
1 2
1 3

Order_ID, LineItem
2 1
2 2
2 3

Thanks in advance.

I Want To Add An Autonumber To...

Jan 11, 2007

I have a fairly small database I recently built that includes a particular table in which I meant for the primary key to be an Autonumber field. Apparently I forgot to set it this way and it currently sits as just a Number field. There are nine tables in this database with a couple hundred records in the main tables.

Is it possible to change this field to an Autonumber at this point? I have attempted to change it and it wants me to remove all the relationships. It also seems to be necessary to copy all the records out before reseting and then copy them all back in or it will not let me proceed.

Will doing it this way work? Is there a better way to do it? Please advise. Thanks.

Add Autonumber

Jun 5, 2007

Apologies if this has been asked before:

I have a small table in access 2003 with autonumbers. I managed to delete two records by mistake (autonumbers 23 & 24).

Is there any way to add them back in?? It is important as these numbers have been specific to those records for a couple of years.

Thanks in advance!

AutoNumber ?

Jan 8, 2008

Good Morning,
Is it possible to have an autonumber field start at a given number, say 9999999 and count backwards?

I have a program that is generating badge ID numbers but I have a bunch that already exist and going backwards seems like the easiest way to mesh the 2.

Help Needed

Apr 29, 2005

I need some help on a database that is set up for work use.

It's rather large and I have no technicial knowledge of access whatsoever so an answer in plain english would be appreciated.

I have attached a picture of the screen that i am having the problem with. The blank fields contain peoples names and addresses. On this page i have to click on "update service user" on the first user, the database opens a seperate page and i enter a few details, then i click to go back to this screen.

When I return back to the screen, the scroll bar is at the top of the list. This is OK when I am doing the first few letters of the alphabet (the users are listed alphabetically) but when i have too use the scroll bar and choose the letters later down the list, then click to update then return to the screen and the scroll barr is not where i left it...ie: it's at the top.

So what I am asking is, is there a way of freezing this scroll bar so it will stay there even when i have navigated away from the screen to update each user?

If someone could answer me this query then I would be most grateful as it's quite time consuming for me to use the scroll bar and find the next person that i need to update.
