Hi I am trying to make a database, In which I have a table linked with the form.
There are two fields in the table 1.Serial Number & 2. Current Year
I want the serial No. field to be incremented after every record is added & Also the numer should start from "1" again as the Current Year Changes.
Can somebody help me in this.
I am learning new things in access & not that proficient. But i love to work in access.
I am currently working on a db to handle our FMLA time. I keep a continous form that totals the time used and subtracts that from the starting amount. One year after the time is used their total should grow. I am looking for some code that will not calculate any record that has a date beyond one year from the current date.
I have a autonumber function in my form, but i have deleted all the records and want to start again but the autonumber has not reset back to 1, is there a way to do this??
I have an inventory split database. It has been working fine. I noticed when I try to enter a new record, it will not let me as it would create a duplicate record. It has actually started to use the autonumbers in the pk again reusing numbers that already exist starting at 1 and moving up sequentially.
How can I make it continue from where it left off or at least not duplicate any of the existing records. This database has many tables with a bunch of relationships. Thanks! Bill Hesson :confused:
just a small question. I have a database that assigns a unique 'audit id' to each entry. the ID is in the form of : DEA-[client prefix]-autonumber. Everything is working fine except the autonumber part. I have gaps in the numeric sequence. Ex: DEA-AAA-1, DEA-AAA-2, DEA-AAA-8, DEA-ABC17, etc.
is there a way that I can reset this autonumber so that it may look like this: Ex: DEA-AAA-1, DEA-AAA-2, DEA-AAA-3, DEA-ABC4, etc.
1. Month (date field that shows only the current month only, ex: 04) 2. ItemNumber (created autonumber using =Dmax("ID","Table")+1 to retrieve the number from the previous record)
What I would like to do is everytime the current month changes I want the ItemNumber to reset to one.
I tried an If statement in the on current of the form If Month <> Date() Then ItemNumber = 1 Else ItemNumber = Null
However it resets for every new record created, which by the code makes sense. Is there any way to have do this one time until the change of date or is there another way to go?
We need to reset the autonumber after the last record is deleted.
For example: 2006 2007 2008
if 2008 gets deleted, we want the autonumber to reset back to 2008 rather than move to 2009.
Is this possible? This is the code we are using but cannot get the string to recognize the variable. If the variable is replaced with a number, it works, but it defeats the purpose of adding the plus 1 to the last autonumber.
Code: Private Sub Command0_Click() Dim RLMax As Integer Dim Statement As String RLMax = DMax("[id]", "Table1") RLMax = RLMax + 1
strSQL = "Alter table table1 Alter Column Id Autoincrement(RLMax,1)" DoCmd.RunSQL strSQL End Sub
I realize we don't want to depend on the autonumber for anything other than a row identifier, but the table is setup that it is important for the rows to be sequential if the last record is deleted. Only if the last record is deleted.
I have a Microsoft Access database with SQL Server backend with 10000 records in my table, I have a autonumber field and in my database the purpose of the autonumber field is just to keep the record sequence (not to treat as a unique identifier) and I don't want to use a number field to manually enter the sequence. Whenever the record is deleted or the user won't save the record, it put gaps in the record sequence, Is there any way to refresh the autonumbers automatically "After delete confirm" event or "After Insert/update" even.
So I have decided that I want my ID's to be AutoNumbers, but at the moment they are currently set as Numbers. I have already inserted data, to test, which has been deleted, however I am now unable to change the ID field back to AutoNumber.
How can I duplicate the tables so that this field can be changed again?
I have like 10 tables with heaps of feild, so remaking them will take long, but I know there is a way using queries, I am just not sure how...
I want access to generate for me an autonumber, but with the current year as initial value. ( To give new hired employees a unique number). For example, we are now in 2013
If there a new hire, that employee is going to get a unique number 2013001
The next new hire, will get 2013002 and so on
I know how to append a table to set the initial value, but this means, that next year I will have to append a new table again to set the initial value to 2014.
I want access to do this automatically for me, so that next year a new hire will get the unique number of 2014001, the next one will be 2014002 etc...
I need to create an "autonumber" field in the following format:
FYYMMXX
Where F is a constant, YY is the year, MM is the month, and XX is an incremented number. So for example, the first record in August of 2013 would be "F130801".
I've been checking other threads but haven't been able to follow them to a resolution. I think there is a way to do this within my form...
I'm trying to change the way date calculations are done in a training db. I show them now in an expression in my query as Between Date() And Date()-365, but I need to show them based on a FY beginning 7/1 of any year and ending on 6/30 of any year. Any suggestions?
I currently have a few tables that use an autonumber as the primary key, however, I would like the autonumber to start with a series of letters if possible. For example: instead of it creating an ID of 1, then, 2, 3, 4, and so on, I would like it to append lets say "ABC" to the front of it; ABC1, ABC2, ABC3, etc.
I'm trying to create a table with an entry for month/day, no year. I want to create a report that can will sort the birthdays based on month in ascending order.
I'm currently using the text field to put in, "10/30" or "1/3" but when I try to order the dates, instead of "1,2,3,4,5,6..." I get "1, 10, 11, 12, 2, 3.." etc.
I am trying to create a query which will return records which are from a specific month of the previous year...
To better explain:
If I have sales from 2013 and 2014 in Jan, I want a query which will show me the results from Jan in 2013 only... I'm just unsure on how to make a query do this and it's probably really simple.
But then in 2015 I will want it to show results from 2014 without having to change the expression or criteria.
each time i run the query i need to list that guests, their number of falls and assign each unique guest a number starting with 1 on up...
How? yes, yes, i know how to do it in a report, but I need right now to be able to do it in a query alone.. anyone?
I tried: SELECT Sum(1+), Guest_Name, Account_Number, Count(Account_Number) AS [Falls] FROM tblFalls GROUP BY Account_Number, Guest_Name;
=p no luck.. though it looks neat.
I also tried writing a function
Public Function GetQryNum() As Integer If IsNull(gQryNum) Or gQryNum < 1 Then gQryNum = 1 GetQryNum = gQryNum Else gQryNum = gQryNum + gQryNum GetQryNum = gQryNum End If End Function
SELECT GetQryNum() AS GuestIndex, Guest_Name, Account_Number, Count(Account_Number) AS [Falls] FROM tblFalls GROUP BY Account_Number, Guest_Name;
Hi, I'm new to this forum and have a question: I want to create a table with an Autonumber field using a SQL statement, in Microsoft Access Database, something like this: Cnn.execute "CREATE TABLE newtable (id Long, Name Char(100)) " is there something to put in place of "long" to make the field autonumber? I tried the word "autonumber", but did not work.
I have a table where one field needs to be an autonumber, however, that autonumber needs to be calculated. This field is not based on any other information in the database, but there's a very complicated mathematical process behind it, which I'm figuring out...I just need to know once I get that code complete, how do I tie it into the table?
I created a database of "My Cars", "Television", and "Wines" and a Trouble Reports(TR) for each. I have a field TR on each and for now a user can fill it up with number i.e first TR is 1, second Tr is 2 etc etc. I want it automatically filled automatically not manually. However, I want it to do the same for "Television" and "Wines" when I write Trs on them. I am a rookie and I dont know how to do it I attached a copy of the db I created.
I have a list of customers with multiple rent start and end dates. I need to create a query where each customer will have a record for every month/year between their respective rent start and end dates. I generally use macros but can't figure out a way to do it without VBA. My field names are Rent StDt and Rent EndDt. My query name is QCalcREndDt. I use version 2010.
