Auto Sequence Number For Reference Number
Dec 8, 2005The title probably doesn't give an idea of what I need, so here goes.
We currently have reference #'s for our bills that include the date requested in mmddyy format, the first 3 letters of the customer, the initials of the order taker and finally a sequential number to show the sumber of bills that day.
example: 120705SEAGMM02 2nd order taken by GMM for Seagate on 12/7
120705SEARLH01 1st order taken by RLH for Seagate on 12/7
I want to generate this number automatically based on the date entered and the initials given of the user. We only deal with one customer at our desk so that will always be "SEA".
I have a query that generates the first portion (date, customer, and initials):
SELECT Format([REQDATE],"mm") AS [Month], Format([REQDATE],"dd") AS [Day], Format([REQDATE],"yy") AS [Year], Format([REQDATE],"mmddyy") AS [Both], [Both] & "SEA" & [PickUpReqData]![INITIALS] AS REFNO
FROM PickUpReqData;
But I can't seem to get my head around the part of generating the number. I know I had done this in a database I created 2 jobs ago but all my files were flooded out in Katrina. (I have since relocated to Atlanta, although I'm not looking for sympathy. But I will take what I can get!)
Anything to point me in the right direction will be appreciated. I am looking to have this on a form and feed the REFNO field in the PickUpReqData table.
Thanks.

Reference Number
Aug 29, 2006Hi guys/gals
My primary key, RefNumber, is a sequentual Autonumber field. I want to creat my own Custommade autonumber field, but the catch is:
My autonumber field should have any of the following (selectable by the user from a combo box from a Form) attached in front of the number: DPR,DPZ,DFE,DGL,DMI,DGJ or DPE.
ie: the autonumber is at 14. The user selects DFE, but this is only the seconde choice made of DFE.
So the end product should be: RefNumber = 14
.........................................DistrictR efNumber = DFE2 or DFE002
Help please?
Thanks in advance
Reference Number Question
Apr 26, 2007Hi, very new to Access and wanted to check something was possible before i proceed with it,
basically i want to assign a reference number to my records automatically based on data that has been entered by the user, looking something like this
AE/13MAY07/01
AE is a standard thing and will never change.
13MAY07 is 13th May 2007, which is a date which has been entered by the user for when a specific piece of work is to start. There will be a Yes/No box next to where they enter the date saying whether or not they want a new reference number assigned. If they select Yes, the reference number will be populated with the date specified.
01 will be a number which goes up in increments of 1 based on the MAY07 detail. The number will start at 01 for every month/year, eg
MAY07/01
MAY07/02
JUN07/01
JUN07/02
MAY08/01
MAY08/02
Hope someone can understand what im trying to do and can help.
Thanks in advance :)
Reference Number Generation
Oct 4, 2006Hi Guys
Dont quite know if this is the right place to post this but here goes any way
Im creating a database where customers can submit a question, it centres around a form where a user enters various information such as initials, telephone number, and various selections from from down boxes.
I have placed a button at the bottom that saves the record, what i want is when that button is pressed for a box to pop up giving the user a unique reference number which is made up of the information they have entered, such as
FIRSTINITIAL-LASTINITIAL-DATE-INCREMENTALNUMBER
I want this number then to be stored along with the record so it can be searched for by this number.
I have done searches for similar questions but cant find one that matches what i want to do
Thanks in advance
Creating Reference Number From 3 Fields
Oct 19, 2005Hi there,
I'm making a document control database where the a unique reference number is automatically generated from 2 tables and updates a 3rd table.
xxxx or yyyy/lookup in 2 table/autonumber
I have been trying to do this is a form but because the control sauce is a calculation 'Text1&Text2&Text3' I am unable to update the 3rd table with the combined reference number.
I have limited knowledge particularly of VBA coding
Any help much appreciated
Subform/ Subreport Query Data Row Number Reference
Jul 20, 2005I am new to this and i may be going about this the wrong way but what i am doing seems to do the job until now.
I am making a form that has a combo box, a few text boxes and a subform subreport on it.
The idea is that the first thing a user does is to select a name form the combo box. this name is then stored as a sring and used to set the forms record source and then the subform's (called window) source object. the string is slightly modified during the process to do this. That part works fine.
The problem arose when i included text boxes to show infomation from the selected Query thatisant show in the window (subform).
After the user selects a name and the name is used to set up the record source and the source object for the text boxes.it then displays in the text boxes the records extra data. however it only displays the first row extra data.And when other rows in the query table are selected the data in the text box stays set as the first row.
I know that this is because i haven't programed in an event that makes the text box data update when the user selects a new row.
i also realise that i would need to have some way of know what row of the quiery table the user is looking at to be able to update the text boxes.
my questions are
Is there a way to tell what row of a query table in the subform is selected ?
Is there an event similar to on selection of row or something like that that i could use to reload the text boxes?
and finaly
am i going about this the right way?
Any input on this would be greatly appreciated :)

Modules & VBA :: Automate Generation Of Reference Number Incrementally By 1
Jul 29, 2013I am trying to automate the generation of a reference number incrementally by 1.
In my main table (tblBooking) I have my primary key field autBookingID which is an autonumber.
In another table (tblBookingStops) I have the primary key as autBookingStopsID as the autonumber and then numBookingID linked to the above table (tblBooking). I have another field called txtGPSID so this is the number I would like to automate.
So for example:
tblBooking:
autBookingID: 1234
tblBookingStops:
[Code]....
I want to put the code that would populate the txtGPSID on a form in datasheet view and would like to put the code on the load event.

Making Dispatch Notes - Generate Reference Number Using AutoNumber
Aug 3, 2011I have made a database for a repair workshop, where you book in and book out repairs.
I am having a problem as we need to make a Dispatch Note daily with a list of all booked out repairs for that day and for that branch.
This is all working so far. However, we need to generate a reference number using AutoNumber (Wshop0001, Wshop0002, etc) and keep a record of this - how can this be done with keeping ONE reference number per day per branch?
Customised Record Count Fields
Aug 1, 2005Hey Guys,
I’ve attached a zipped example of the problem I am having with customised navigation buttons.
In my main database the form “subfrmPersonsContact” works perfectly. I have exported it to a new database and now the customised record count fields do not work at all – they are in fact blank even though the navigation buttons do still work.
The code running the form and the record count fields is listed below – I have no idea why it’s not working.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Rusty

Queries :: Adding Sequential Numbers To Generate A Unique Reference Number
Oct 5, 2013Basically what I have is a database for tracking/logging parcels that arrive to the office. I want to be able to generate a reference number based on the date of arrival: i.e. the reference number should be ddmmyy### where ### is a sequential number. I know that I could just use the primary key's autonumber, for the sequential number but if I do this then the sequence will not restart at 1 on each date and because we receive a lot of parcels the reference number will grow to be too big to print out on the collection slips in just a few months.
two tables (one with the date and staff on duty that day and the other with the parcel's info') with a one to many relationship
I also have a query (Named: FullLog) that picks up the following data from the tables:
Name - Description - Size - TrackingInfo' - Staff - DateReceived - Count
The field named Count is a DCount function that I used to find out the number of times each date is repeated. This is the Expression that I used:
Count: DCount("*","FullLog","DateReceived = " & [DateReceived]) [Note that DateReceived is first converted into a string using CStr()]
This is as far as I have been able to get, I have been looking for weeks for a solution to this problem but I have yet to find one. I don't even know if the DCount function is the correct way of doing it, I did read somewhere that this produces a very slow query.
Effectively what I want to be able to get is something of that resembles the following
DateReceived - ReferenceNo
051013 051013001
051013 051013002
051013 051013003
061013 061013001
061013 061013002
071013 071013001
071013 071013002
071013 071013003
071013 071013004
071013 071013005
081013 081013001
081013 081013002
091013 091013001
101013 101013001
Customised Reports Depending On User Login
Nov 22, 2006I want to print different versions of a report depending on on the user login id "quserid" which I have on a login form "authorise".
As a simple example I have tried using a single user with the syntax shown below but get an error message "Object required". I suspect the problem is in the way I identidfied the quserid field. Can anyone please advise me on this.

Viewing Customised Menus In Access Runtime
Dec 18, 2007I have set up a secured database using access 2003 which I want to roll out to users who will only have access runtime installed on their pc's.
The problem is there are some additional options that I want to add to a new menu (export, change password etc) that I need them to be able to view in runtime - when I set up a new menu in access 2003, it doesn't seem to be visible on anybody else's PC when they are logged into the database regardless of whether they have full access or runtime.
Can anybody help?
Many thanks
General :: Creating Unique Sequential / Reference Number Every Time Report Is Printed
Feb 15, 2013I have a rental database and I print several contacts for leases etc. what I want to do is have a unique reference number or something inserted to the report every time that it's printed. What I am trying to achieve is to keep track of which tenant corresponds to the report (Lease) printed by using reference number.
There is a seperate form which holds the tenants details and I would like to have a field on that form which would show the same reference number as the report so I can track which report was printed for who.
Whats the best/easiest way to accomplish this?
Modules & VBA :: Create Unique Reference Number Based On Field Values For Record
Jun 18, 2015I want Access to automatically generate a reference number for a record based on the values in on two other fields for a given record using a form.
The first field is called Operation Number.
The second is Bag Number.
The reference number needs to be in this format: 19C.3.1
Where 19C is the Operation Number, 3 is the bag number, and 1 is automatically generated. Additionally I need the last number --the automatically generated one--to go back to 1 if with each new bag number.
This is kind of like library catalog numbers. Not sure how to do this.
Reference
Feb 24, 2006Please help, how can I refer to the field of a subform in Visual Basic when the (main) form is open?
A)
Private Sub supplierID_AfterUpdate()
Forms![invoices]![KombináltLista4].Requery
End Sub
B)
Private Sub supplierID_AfterUpdate()
Forms![details1 Segédűrlap]![KombináltLista4].Requery
End Sub
These don't work. (The main form: INVOICES; the subform:DETAILS1 Segédűrlap; KombináltLista4 is the name of a combo box)
The version B work, when I open the form and the subform together, but of course I'd like to work only on the form (where the subform is displayed as well, but I can't refer to it...)

Reference Problem
Jan 12, 2006Hi, I have been designing a database on my computer which seems to be working fine; 2 more users in the company should be able to use the database.In order to see if everything was working properly on other computers, I have put a copy of my db on the server and tried to open it on the other users computer station. Unfortunately, the reference library that I have been updating during the design of the database doesn't seem to apply to the other computers. I have been trying to update it on the other machine but the references on the tool menu in open module is not available.
I didn't expect this to hapened and I am not sure what to do, what would be the apropriate method to make the library available to the other computers?
