Forms :: How To Update Field Sequential Number In Subform
Jun 4, 2014
1. Which event occurs when anything changes on subform (Delete row , add row , perform the sort, Especially when you add a row to be inserted in the current sorting between the rows)
2. I have column sequential number that need updating when occurs any event on subform
3. "On current" is event that occurs always when changing rows in subform, how to process rows sequential (row by row) thru subform and update field that represent sequential number.
I have a table like the one below. I need to Auto Sequence based on JobIDOne in the field that says sequence in the manner that I've typed. Hand typing is not an option because by table will be updated regularly. All other fields are updated via a form. I need a either a macro or VBA solution that can reconcile this, preferably through the table. Note, I do not want to use a query to create this sequencing or SQL language as I do not know how to write SQL commands.
I know it can be done but I've seen about a thousand ways to do it that I haven't been able to modify for my specific table.

I have an on click event that checks if entered number values on my first tabbed subform are not null. I then pass the values to three other fields each on a different tabbed subform using If Then Else syntax that seems to work. When I click through the tabs after the code has finished I can see the updated values on their respective tabbed subforms. However, when I click back through the tabs or requery the record all but the first and last subform values have saved.
I have tried inserting If Me.Dirty Then Me.Dirty = False in the subform after update and on data change events as well as in the on click event. I have also tried RunCommand acCmdSaveRecord and neither seems to work.
Ex. If IsNull(Me.AMT1_AF) Then Else Forms![SCH_ENTRY]![ENT1subform]![AMT1] = Me.AMT1_AF End If If IsNull(Me.AMT2_AF) Then
I am using Ms Access 2007 and I am new to it..I have table of following fileds
ID (as a primary key)
AccountingYear (Filed for current accounting Year e.g., 14-15; 15-16)
Series (text- as R, Y, B etc to denote series code)
OrderNo (field to store custom autonumber Order No e.g., for Series R-1, R-2, for series Y Y-1, Y-2, etc)
I have created a form using all these fields..Now what i want to do is I want to create custom order no as first 2 digit of accounting year+Series+Autonumber of respective series as
14R-1 14R-2 14Y-1 14Y-2 14Y-3 14B-1
15R-1 15R-2 15Y-1 15Y-2
Means autonumber starts with 1 for every accounting year of respective Series..how to do this and what code or formula should be applied and where the code should be inserted as I am new to Ms access
I'm using the following code to generate a sequential number"
Code: Private Sub Form_Load() Me.txtReceivedDate = Now() 'assign an EmailID when form loads Dim CurMax As Long Dim NewMax As Long 'poll the current EmailIDs for the largest number from current year and add 1
[Code] ....
Until recently, I didn't have any criteria on the DMax and it worked perfectly. It's now been decided that the EmailID should reset back to 1 when the calendar year changes.*
*EmailID is not my primary key - There is a separate autonumber field used as the primary key.
The table I'm using the DMax on has a field named ReceivedDate which stores a Now() when a record is created. The form I'm working in has a textbox named txtReceivedDate that is set to Now() when the form loads as can be seen in the code above.
What I'm trying to use as my criteria in the DMax is to match the Year() of ReceivedDate in tblEmails to the Year() of txtReceivedDate on the form.
For 2013, the current max (CurMax) EmailID is 21. If I set my computers date back to 2012 (where the CurMax is 3) the txtEmailID is still being populated with 22, even though txtReceivedDate shows a 2012 date.
I've tried a handful of permutations of the criteria string:
I've tried a few others long the way that I don't even remember, but there's probably little value in listing all the ways that don't work.
I've got a syntax issue within the criteria since it's the first time I've tried to use one and it contains a couple moving parts.
Once I get this sorted out a follow on question is about dealing with the users changing the txtReceivedDate to a different year. As of now, I have the same code (everything except "Me.txtReceivedDate = Now()") also present in txtReceivedDate_LostFocus(), but I'm not sure that's the best place for it.
I have a subform linked to a form using a field IdReg. I need to update the field W which is repeated in the subform. This field (W) is true / false. I tried with Loop but still do not get it. Eg
IdReg | W (field to update everyone all at false or true)
So I'm making a database for an office and I'm having a little trouble getting the information linked together. This is my first access project.
Here's the information:
Desktops_TBL Desktop ID (PK) Location (FK) Serial Number Product Number Operating System etc
[Code]....
How I want it to work:
-New users or equipment is entered via a new entry form and stored in the respective table with a dummy Location (i.e. "Backstock"). This part I understand how to do -To assign a user and equipment to a location, I want there to be a master form for that location. In that master form, there are subforms displaying the current pieces of equipment attributed (if there are any) to that location. A combo box displays the possible choices, and choosing a choice attributes the equipment to that location.
I have the form with subforms set up. The number of records corresponds to the number of locations in the office. Going through the records displays the correct information of attributed equipment in the subforms.
Where I am stuck: What I want is for the user of the database to be able to click on the Desktop serial number combo box, choose a different record, and have it assign the Location from the main form to the Desktop Location FK so that they link. When I try to do this, it writes a new blank record in Desttop_TBL, assigning the Desktop ID to the PC Serial Number spot, but that's it.
I have a continuous sub form linked to a master form. The sub form contains fields such as [date], [increase], [lastdateincrease], [task], and multiple other fields. The sub form can have one record or multiple records linked to the master form.
Each sub form record represents a service, monthly cost, and a price increase amount. I'd like to be able to enter data in two fields and have this data populate any remaining records, or for that matter, new records that I had to the sub form.
The fields that I would like to have populate are [date] and [increase].
When I enter the [date] and [increase] in the first record, I'd like all remaining records in the sub form to update with the [date] and [increase] amount automatically.
I have a subform embedded in a main form, the subform has a field (text box) that is doing automatic calculation so no manual entries are needed from the user. I have tried to pass automatically the final result to a text box in the main form, but all events are not working (afterupdate, On change, On Dirty), etc.
I have a button to do the above mentioned in the main form, but I don’t want to use that button, I want to do all the process from the subform.
Also, from the subform I was able to do click on the button on the main form (programmatically), however MS Access is too quick and the value extracted from the subform is always empty (zero); Acees is finishing before the calculation is done.
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?
Hello, I am very new to access and I am trying to create a simple sytem to help us create part numbers. We are using a 2 digit descriptor to help define the part some. Then we want to add a sequential 7 digit number on to that.
Example:
01 (is electrical) 02 (Shop supplies) etc....
So...
01-0000001 would be a part number for an electrical part.
I do not understand how to have access add the zeros to the front. I would also like to be able to jump a bit out of line to reserve part numbers for certain projects and also include some that we already have.
If this make any sense to anyone, any help would be appreciated!
Im trying to create a document register in Access 97 to create and track document numbers, for this i want to assign a 6 number unique id to each record starting at 000001 going up in order to 999999 which will form part of a unique docuement number ...i know this may be a really easy thing to do but can anyone tell me how?
I have a form on which I need to print a sequential number - increasing by 1 each time the form is printed. I cannot think of a way to do that - perhaps something returned from a query? Any suggestions?
I placed the code Nz{DMax("field name","table name"),0)+1 on the control source of the ColNo field and i also tried copying numerous similar codes to the BeforeInsert, OnCurrent, etc.. events, but the result is ALWAYS THE NEXT MAXIMUM NUMBERFOR THE "ENTIRE" POLID.
What i mean is, if i enter a new record, it would give me a sequential number of "4". I figured out this is because 3 is the last maximum number as i have shown on my sample table. Even if i use the PolID "789", the number shown on the ColNo field results to "4".
IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN "2". Considering that the last ColNo used for PolID 456 was "1".
Hi, im pretty new to access, i need some help or a pointer on how to set up a sequential number. i have a orders table with an order number starting GO how to i get access to count up in ones from the starting number. regards
I know that there may have been many posts on this and I have searched for a total of about 2 hours in these forums before posting, so please don't shoot me down for asking this.
I simply need to know how I can create a unique, alphanumeric order number. I was going to use Autonumber, but from what I have read on these forums, that is not the way to go, as Autonumber is simply to identify the record.
What I need is an number like so: ST000. It needs to start at ST142 and increase by one each time. Obviously I would like to avoid gaps from records being deleted or not completed etc.....
I really have no clue how to do this, and would appreciate it if anyone can point me to a post that would help, or offer me the solution.
I am trying to create a sequential number field in a query. I cant use an auto number for the fact that i am combining multiple tables. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
We have a large database table [PRODUCT] with the following fields PROPNUM and P_Date and GAS. We need to normalize the GAS field to the first month of production based on P_Date and sequential months following to average the data. We believe the easiest way is to create a sequential number for each Key PROPNUM that represents the first month of GAS the second month of GAS etc.
We have followed several of the posts on how to sequentially number records, but are struggling to get them to work.The latest effort was to use the make a table query creating an expression with the following.
I am trying to create an auto-sequential order number
Example : AB000112 - AB is standard prefix, ''0001'' is the first invoice number, ''12'' is the year 2012.
so the next order number should read AB000212 and the next AB000312
Out of this, I have to issue several debit notes relating to the same order number when the payments are due from customers over a period of time, this will be
I am not sure if it is possible to implement this but I would like your input. We get request from client via a web based form which contains a unique ID number called RDEFNumber. When we process the request internally, we use this number to identify the request throughout the process. The request from client contains processing of multiple files which are transmitted to us in different times of the day or days.
Every time we receive a file, an email is sent to the IT team with all the information about the file. We use an internal database to send the email to the IT team and use the RDEFNumber as the identifier in the subject line. What I am trying to do is to add an additional number at the end of the RDEFNumber automatically to differentiate the subject line.
For example, we take "1791" as a RDEFNumber. For the first time we enter 1791 to the database RDEFNumber field, it should check the table "tblRDEF" (record source) for duplicate value. If no Duplicate exists, it should keep the number as same. When we get the next file for processing with the same 1791 number and enter this number in the RDEFNumber field, it should automatically change it to "1791-1" since "1791" already exists in the database. When we get the next file, the number should change to "1791-2" and then "1791-3" and on.
I have column called "order" in table called "mov" and this column has this layout
Code: 1 2 14 255 222 1755 12
And I want to update this column to be corrected numbering from 1 to the last cell number - lets say it 17540 - this update has no criteria conditions, just this field.
Basically 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:
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
