AutoNumber Error -- MaxLocksPerFile ??

Aug 28, 2007

I'm getting a unique error when I attempt to add an AutoNumber field to a table that I created. The table itself has ~110,000 records but it will not let me create an ID tag for the records so that I can create a primary key.

The error reads "File sharing lock count exceeded. Increase MaxLocksPerFile registry entry."

If anyone has come across this error before and knows how to get around it please let me know. Thanks!

See attachment for a jpeg of the error.

Autonumber Error

Oct 22, 2006

Hi I need help with my Access database. I have an autonumber column which was working beautifully...until some one imported data from a text document which created an error in this column. So now instead of the numbers counting up in order, i.e. 2218, 2219 and so on, there is a new, larger number ie, 3376546 in the column and that is starting to count up with each new entry. how can i get back to the original autonumbers? I have tried deleting all the data with the wrong numbers, but everytime I try to put data back in the wrong auton numbers starts to fill in in the column!! HELP!

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.

Access Error "autonumber Message"

Sep 9, 2007

Has anyone had this problem: You make an access mdb database "X" with table "A"- which includes autonumber field and few more fields (text or something else). Than You make another mdb file "Y"- which contains link to table "A" in mdb file "X". When You open mdb file "Y" and You open linked table - You can not see data from the table - instead it showes "Autonumber" (text) in every field (autonumber field and other text fields). Then You close the linked table and open it again and everythnig is ok. And every time it shows this error on first opening.
On another computer (with the same windows instalation) everything is ok.
I tryed to reinstall windows (on the machine with the error) - clean install - and the problem is fixed. Another time I install the same windows again - and the error is back. Then I reinstall the windows again (clean install) - and this time error is still present. I tryed to install another access (2003 instead XP) - but it doesn't help.
What is going on ?

Thanks

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

ID Autonumber Gets Set As 5E+08

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.

Autonumber Problem

Apr 28, 2005

The record I was using as a key changed from an incremental to a random number. When I try to change it it won't allow me. I created a new project and imported the tables from the old one but all the attributes followed.
Short of starting from scratch, what can I do to change back to incremental autonumbering.

Specialized Autonumber

Jun 2, 2005

I am creating a database for my company to register projects. And each project needs to have a unique Project ID number, which (due to the conformity of another software tool) must be 4 characters long. The first character is a specific letter based on the group the project is created by, followed by a 3 digit number. So, for example, one of the group code letters is C, so the first "C Project" would have the ID 'C001'.

I want my database to assign these automatically after selecting the group.

Any ideas?

Not The Same Autonumber Problem

Dec 16, 2005

I have an access database that I have used autonumber to assign order numbers for several years. I am now wanting to split the database and it is causing a problem with the order numbers. My situation is different than other posts because I delete orders from the table when I assign serial numbers, but I still do not want to use that order number.

Example:
Enter order number 1000
Enter order number 1001
Assign a serial number to Order 1001 and delete that record.
Enter a new order, need order number to be 1002

Because I delete 1001 but still do not want to use 1001, I can't use any max number function that I've seen in some other posts.

Could I make a table to somehow keep track of the next order number. I am not very knowledgeable about access so please bear with me.
