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.
How to update unbound textbox on main form from unbound textbox in subform afterupdate.
that is when amount paid is updated it automatically updates total paid, balance etc.
Hi: There are two textboxs in my main form. One is bound and another is unbound. There is no entry in the unbound textbox as values come into automatically after entering some information in the subform.

When the form load there is already value in the bound textbox which i want to override based on the values from the unbound textbox.
Thank You.
I have a date textbox (Week_Ending) and number textbox (Staff_ID) in a form (frmHourEnter), when both have values I open another form (frmStaffReport) with textboxes (txtDateStart and cmbStaff).
How do I open the second form with the values of the first form pre-entered?
I have a database for billing. In my database, I have a form that consists of a main form "Order" and 2 subforms "OrderDetails" and "Customer" OrderDetails are to enter the products to be connected to the Order. All function super, but I want to have some information from one of the forms "copied" over to on of the others.
Here is what I would like
In the subform "OrderDetails" I have made a textbox that summarize all prices to a total, his tekstbox i called "Tekst31". I would like the amount in this textbox to appear in a field "Bel�b" in the main form "Order".
I have tried some different commands, but nothing has worked, also I have made a query which dose the same ting as the tekstboks, as the information in that tekstbox it not stored anywhere.
I have a text box on 'Forma' & a textbox (named text3) on 'Formb'.
I want to copy the contents of the textbox from 'Formb' to the textbox on 'Forma'. I have used the following code in the textbox on 'Forma'....
=Forms![Formb]![Text3].text
This doesn't seem to be working whether both Forms are open or only 'Forma'. Could somebody please advise as to what I am missing. Your assistance is very much appreciated.
Dear All:
I have created a form using access 2000. So far, this form already has data and dates in a combox in this format: mm/dd/yyyy.
In the AfterUpdate of the date combobox, I did this:
If graduation_date = #2/1/2004# then
Text_Graduation_date = "dated this first day of february two thousand four."
End If
End Sub
In addition, I have defined many other dates as well using the code above. It works well when I choose the date form the combobox, the other textbox populates, but there are so many more dates in the combo!
Is there a way to auto-populate the textbox with the appropriate text as I scroll through the form?
Thanks,
Dion
I currently have two froms, "add record" and "add record cont." The reason I have two seperate forms is because when clients create a new record information needs to be saved to two different tables and when creating one from with fields from both tables I ran into many problems. The two tables are named : tblMain, tblFileLoc Currently there is a textbox on both forms named "fileID" the FileID in the first form is from tblMain and is the primary key for that table, the FileID on the second form "Add Record Cont." is just a normal field. When clients enter in the new FileID in the first form "Add Record" and then move onto the next form "Add Record Cont." i need access to bring the entered FileID from the first form and Fill it in the FileID field in the second form. Currently I have tried making the control source for the textbox on the second form = the textbox on the first form but it brought up an error.

I have created a form with various textboxes. In one unbound textbox called Graduation_date, I input information and this is reflected in another bound textbox called text762.
However, as I scroll through the form, the information that is to be reflected in textbox 762 disappears.
Any ideas on how to apply the information entered in Graduation_date textbox to all?

Dion
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
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
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.

Is there any way you could renumber the autonumber, I have deleted some records in my table and the numbering orders have a gap and I would like the numbers to rearange automatically as the record or records are deleted.
Thank you.
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 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.
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!
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.

I know you can have Access create an Auto-number field when you make a table....
Is there any way (via. code, or gui) to create an auto-number field within a query?
Thanks,

is there anyway i can edit data in autonumber, or work around?
thanks
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.
