I have 2 page tabs on a form, and I want an incremental number assigned to each new record on that page.
Been doing some research and this is what I came up with:
Private Sub Form_Current()
If Me!tabSupplier.NewRecord = True Then
Me!tabSupplier!DocumentNo = Nz(DMax("DocumentNo", "Product"), 1000) + 1
End If
End Sub
The page nane is: Supplier Page Index is:0
The control to display the incremental number isocumentNo (tblProducts)
it does not work and I am getting no error message.
I have a Primary Key field named Member ID(Number format) in a Table named Mail List. The field is populated with existing ID numbers and my need is to use my Member Entry Form to increment by 1 from the last entry.
I have gleaned from other references that this can easily be achieved by the following entry in the Default Value of the property sheet for the relevant field;
=DMax("Member ID","Mail List")+1
The Form saves without error but when I attempt to add a new record in the entry form, the ID Number reads "#Error".
Hi, I have done this before but it has bee awhile. I have set up a small database to keep track of invoices. Before I generate an invoice I go to this database and put in the pertinant info. What I want it to do is generate an invoice number every time I go to start a new record, starting with a specific number and incrementing from there. FOr example I started with invoice number 2429 so I want it to generate 2430 for the next record . Please tell me how to do this again it is driving me nuts.
I have seen large projects in which there are clearly several printed database reports printed out to make one booklet.
1. How does one get page numbers for multiple reports to go in sequence instead of starting over again at 1 for each report.
2. How can you add a page reference in one report to something in another report?
Do you have to do these things by hand or is there a way to create a something with auto numbering capabilities? Do you do it by importing the reports to MS Word and creating a master document?
I was searching for a solution to this problem and found a thread called "Changing page numbers?" from 2012 but it is not clear : [URL] .....
I have two issues with my report. The first is the page number. The print control on the correlating form allows the user to print a range of reports based on the TransmittalID number. TransmittalID #1 is a 2 page report and #2 is a single page report but when I choose print from ID 1 to 2 the page numbering says page x of 3 instead of page 1 of 2 and 2 of 2 for ID #1 and page 1 of 1 for ID #2. Following along the thread above I managed to reset the page numbers to restart at 1 for each page but that is as far as I got. I'm not sure where to enter the code that was provided.
My second problem is that the report footer contains a signature line; however, printing a range is resulting in this only showing on page 3. How do I set this that for each new ID# start a new report. I've tried force new page, inserting page breaks but no luck.
I have been trying to incorporate an access DB in to our business for sometime, but keep coming up against the same issue. We have a numbering system for the jobs we do, which was invented many years ago and cannot be changed. It is in the format "month/Year/unique 3 digits" the 3 digits are sequential, i.e. 02/07/123 ... 02/07/124... etc. I will need this all in one field. So far I have managed to get the month and year (easy enough) with the expression "=Month(Now()) & "/" & Right(Year(Now()),2) & "/"" Now I need to get the sequential 3 digits at the end, however, I am not sure of any way to do this and it has stumped many people. I have a field that is autonumbered, but don't seem to be able to add this to the end of the expression.
If any of you have any suggestions I would be greatful - bear in mind I am only a begginer at this.
I am trying to create a form that creates an automatic identifier with a value one greater than the previous identifier. I was able to create something that updates in batches of two: That is, I end up with identifiers that go 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, etc. How do I get it to create consecutive identifiers (1, 2, 3, 4, etc.)?
I am trying to make a DAP for data input into a table.
I used the wizard and it has the fields I want, I can scroll through them and view the entries, but they are not editable.
I read about changing the Page DataEntry property to True, but I still cannot select any of the editboxes on the DAP and now the DAP just shows blank non-selectable editboxes.
I decided to create a dummy table to work with to test creating a DAP, my dummy table looks like this:
Group Name Number Text 1 Bill 3 pink 1 Adam 5 green 2 Charlie 7 blue
I ran the wizard on the above table and again I can scroll through but not select any of the fields, and with DataEntry set to True I still cannot select/edit the textboxes.
Is there something else I need to do to be able to make an input form?
Once I get that sorted out I have a followup question: The dummy table above is where the input data goes, but on the input form I would like if possible to get the Group and Name from a different table using drop-lists. The real table has over 5000 names split into groups of about 30-50 so picking a group first would help find a name in the list which will eventually be input to the table above.
Hope that all makes sense, and thanks in advance for any help!

I have one-page forms which print a second page, blank except for a block of grey shading at the top. I have tried moving the content of the form up but that doesn't eliminate the second page. If I look at print preview, every second page of the entire database shows up as blank, regardless of where that happens to appear in the record.
One of my forms has a text box which is bound to a field called teenumber. This form is set up that "on current" has code
If Me.teenumber = 0 Or IsNull(Me.teenumber) Then Me.teenumber = Nz(DMax("teenumber", "tblteeofftimesshotgun"), 0) + 1
This enables the text box teenumber to be auto filled with sequential numbers growing by 1 for each record. This database is for a golf tournament and this form enables user to set up tee times for shotgun start for the players.
When the user gets to tee number 18 or whatever the last hole on the course is the teenumber field needs to be reset to 1. With the above code I a unable to do this.
Creating a form against a table with the following fields
EC Project Originator Title Full description Effectivity Etc....
Easy enough to create the Project combo box, problem comes with trying to systematically assign the next EC number.
When I select a Project from a combo box I want an EC assigned with format ECXXXX-### where XXXX is the project number from the combo box and ### is a sequential number. ECs should start at -001 for all projects.
Do I need to add an EC suffix field to hold just the ###? Then what?
one of my tables has a field called # of Days. the default (minimum) value for this field is five (5), which i set. however, if there is a case where five (5) days are not enough, the next value would be ten (10) since the permit is issued for 5 days at a time, and so on. can someone suggest a validation rule that only allows increments of 5, but the minimum value is never less than 5? thanx in advance! :)
I'm building an application via Access that will allow a user at my company to import a CSV file with hundreds of records, press a button that runs several insert queries which inserts some of those records into our ERP system based on criteria.Each record of the insert query must have a unique "Interchange Number" that is historically unique, ie, if I used number 1000 in the insert query yesterday, I would need to use 1001 today. I already can find which value to start with using a DMAX() function on the table where you insert the records.I need a way to give each record of a select query a unique value that is +1 from the preceding record.
When I import the CSV file, I already have Access assigning an Autonumber. The problem is the file can have up to a thousand records a day while I only need to insert maybe 10 each day. If the starting Interchange number was 1001, I would like it to go 1001, 1002, 1003, etc. If I add the Autonumber from the table I imported, it can go 1001, 1050, 1343, based on where that record was on the autonumber when it imported.
So is there anyway to run a select query and have a field on that query start at 1 and count up by 1 for each record? If I can get that I can code the rest.
I need some help with code. I can do this in Excel, but I am not sure how to do it in Access.
Here are the fields:
PoundsPerBox PoundsPerOrder BoxesToOrder
Here is the scenario: If a customer orders custom paint for their equipment, we need to total how many pounds of Powder Coat paint it takes to paint all the units (PoundsPerOrder). When we order this from the vendor we have to order it by the box which is measured in pounds. In this example, the vendor will sell us a box of white Poweder Coat paint in increments of 55 pounds. (55, 110, 165,...)
Verbally, the logic reads like this: If PoundsPerOrder is less than or equal to PoundsPerBox, then BoxesToOrder equals 1. This logic needs to be tested for each increment value (indefinately) of PoundsPerBox.
Am I making sense? How do I accomplish this in Access? And, as a side note, I need to capture and store this value in a table for future reference.
I work for an insurance company where various (and multiple) discounts or loads can be applied to a quoted premium for one reason or another.
These discounts/loads are stored in a table with a corresponding customer ID, where each row represents an individual discount/load (labelled and ordered-by a 'Step').
Unfortunately, the resulting premium from these discounts/loads is not stored in the database and are calculated on the fly by the front-end.
I have a requirement however, to store the 'new' premiums based on the stored discounts/loads for a report.
My problem is that the calculations must occur incrementally one after another, where the discount/load at each 'Step' applies to the resulting premium from the previous calculation.
The attached spreadsheet is demonstrative of the existing table where two additional columns have been added to show you what I need to calculate. 'Price_Amount' represents the discount/load in monetry terms relative to the calculation and 'New_Prem' is the premium resulting from the calculation step.
Notice that each discount/load applies to the previously calculated premium rather than the original one (Original_Prem = the starting point from which all further calculations should apply).
The full table would include many more rows for different customer ID's, where the number of 'steps' could be as few as 1 or as many as 7 per customer ID (ordered by 'Step').
Having toiled for many hours in Access to achieve the above, I am now resigned to the fact that only some kind of VBA function will achieve my requirements.
This function should take the Original Premium for each CustomerID and loop through each 'Step' applying the relative discount/load based on the value in 'Pricing' and the number type in 'Price_Type'. Once the function has calculated each step per CustomerID and has reached the maximum 'Step', it should move on to the next CustomerID.
such can only articulate the requirements without being able to convert this into actual coded logic. Nonetheless, I am in a bit of a pickle with this one and am under some pressure to create the report.
I am working on an access database for my team. We keep and maintain a trail log for different departments.
The person will send a trail sheet to us we will input the info and attach what we call Production Instructions Number in this format (YEAR-Month-001), the next trail will get (YEAR-Month-002), the last 3 digits will start over when the month changes, I would like the PI number to populate automatically when the info is inserted.
Part of my access application does invoicing. I have an invoice number table that wholes one field "InvoiceNum". On my invoice report i have the following code:
Code: Private Sub Report_Open(Cancel As Integer) '// lookup invoice number when invoice opens intInvoiceNum = Nz(DLookup("InvoiceNum", "tblInvoiceNum"), 0) End Sub
[Code] .....
Problem: My report open with groupby ClientID and ProjectNum. Multiple invoices print on the same report. If any invoice spills over to second page the Format Code runs again inserting an incremental invoice number to the second page. How can i prevent this from happening?
I have a report which includes several subreports. There will be times when a subreport prints partially on one page and completes on the next. I don't always want to break to a new page with this subreport. However, I would want to break to a new page if the subreport cannot fully print on the current page.
I have a report that lists states and cities within the states. When a state name happens to be at the end of the page the individual cities appear on the next page with no State heading. I solved the second page problem by setting the "repeatSection = Yes" in the Section Header (though I haven't shown that in the example below).
But the previous page (which just shows the State Name and no cities looks dumb. Is there some sort of solution.?? (Actually I would also like any State that continues to a next page to not just have the state name but something like " Colorado (Continued)" Is there anything I can do in VB to make a page break if the section is going to print but therer isn't enough room for one detail line?
This is what I currently see
Alaska Ancorage Prudo Bay
California Whittier Anaheim
Colorado ------------------------Page Break --------------------------------- Denver Pueblo Colorado Springs
If I have a report and it has controls (labels representing column titles) in the page header. Now when I print the report - if it happens that the last page has no detail records - but there is text boxes and so forth in the report footer. Is there a way to not display the page header on the last page?
I have a report where the last page shows the page header - and the field/column labels on the page header - but for which there is no detail records left to display - on the last page. There is report footer information that should display. It just looks weird because the field/column labels show at the top of the page - but there is no data remaining to print under them on that last page.
I have a data access page needs a filter by a dropdownlist, the dropdownlist used is a html control and I use javascript to filter the data programmaticlly in the onchanged event of the control.
MSODSC.DataPages(0).Recordset.Filter="AppID = 3";
My problem is, when this statement runs, the page refreshes. But I don't need the page refreshes, it set the dropdownlist text to the default text, not the value user select. The browser is IE7.
