General :: Auto Number PK Change Starting Number?
Dec 18, 2013I have a table with an auto number PK. This table will contain orders. I'd like to use the PK from this table as the Invoice number on the invoice. I'd like to have it start at a number other than "1" just because it looks better on an invoice. I don't know how to do this. I looked at the table design to see if there were options available to me there but couldn't find anything. Is it possible? (I do not know how to use code.)

Select X Number Of Most Recent Records
Apr 1, 2014I have been tasked to determine the actual cost to build a product by summing the cost of the most recent required components to come off of our assembly line. For example, say I'm trying to determine the cost of a car with multiple sub-components (1 engine block, 4 doors, 4 wheels, 2 headlights, etc.). We make parts for all kinds of products (cars, boats, televisions, etc.). All of the data for ALL of these parts are contained in a table called PART_DATA (i.e. part ID, date started, date finished, hours spent, etc.).
Then I have a list of parts required to build a certain model car in a table called CAR_PARTS_LIST. This table contains data like (part ID, quantity needed, etc.).
If I want to know how much it would cost to build a car using the most recent car-part data, I need to pull data for the most recent required car parts to come off the assembly line that are required for a single car. That is, my car needs 4 wheels, so I need data for the most recent 4 wheels to come off the line.
How can I write a query for the "4 most recent wheel records" given that "4" is specified in the CAR_PARTS_LIST?
Auto Number Starting At A Particular Number
Jul 25, 2005Hi, I have a form with some fields on it, there is one called Pro Number. what I would like to happen is when a new record is created, it starts at a certain number and continues to increment by one. In other words, the first record would be 5600 and the next new record would be 5601 etc.
I did have this working in an previous database, by creating a append query to start the number, but that does not seem to be working now...
Any help would be very much apprecited.

Changing The Starting Number Of The Autonumber
Apr 7, 2007I have a table with a compound key, and one of the two fields in the compound key has to start at 100 and finish at 999 and I'd like it so that each number didn't have to be typed in individually.
So I thought about using an autonumber that somehow starts at 100 but doesn't go over 999 if thats possible? Or if you have any other ideas on how I could achieve this?
Thanks

Tables :: Starting With A 0 In A Number Field?
Mar 23, 2015I have a field to record the last 4 digits of a credit card number in regards to tracking payment information.
The field is currently formatted as a Number field. When I try to enter a set of 4 numbers that start with "0" (e.g. 0123), Access removes the 0 from the start automatically (so 0123 becomes 123).
That function makes perfect sense under normal circumstances, but in this case I want to be able to keep the 0 at the beginning because it is part of the 4 digit sequence.
Default Number Value Changed To 0 After Starting Enter Data Into A Form
Mar 4, 2015I have a form that has number entries. I changed the Default Value for these numbers to Null because I dont want 0s (they aren't being used for numeric calculations, they just hold a number). I want there to be nothing in the input field until I put it there.
My problem is, when I start to enter info into my form, access automatically places 0s into all my number entries! Is there a way to avoid this? Or should I just make the fields text instead?
Forms :: Auto Generate File Number Based On Number Of Records In Year
Jan 21, 2014I have a form [IUDATA]
I have a add record button.
I have a date field [DATEIN]
I have a text field [DRPNO]
If the [DPRNO] field is empty, I would like the user to have the [DPRNO] field be automatically populated after the user enters a date.
I'd like the format of [DPRNO] to be "dpr YY-XXX"
Where:
YY is the year of the [DATEIN] field and
XXX is number of records in that year.
So for example, if it was the 4th record with a 2013 date the [DPRNO] would be dpr 13-004.
Modules & VBA :: Possible To Export Select Records And Fields In Those Records To A Specific Location?
Jun 15, 2013In an Access 2010 form is it possible to export select records and fields in those records to a specific location?
Code:
Set objDialog = Application.FileDialog(4)
With objDialog
.AllowMultiSelect = False
.Title = "Please select a File"
.InitialFilename = "C:"
.Show
If .SelectedItems.Count = 0 Then
MsgBox ("Action Cancelled")
Else
[code]....
The user can select the directory using the code above, but can specific fields in records be exported to a excel workbook in that selected directory?For example, if the are 5 records in the database can the fields LastName,FirstName,BirthDate in records 1,2,3 be exported to Setup.xlsx in that selected directory?
Report Prints The Same Number Of Times As The Number Of Records
Jul 10, 2006I've created a report and report has the same number of pages as the number of records that it's displaying.
If there are two records, the report has 4 pages...the first 2 are the actual report and then the other 2 are a copy. If there are 3 records, the report would have 3 copies (...6 pages).
Any idea how to change this so that I have only one copy of the report?
Select Highest Number And Update
May 19, 2007This database is for a livestock show that I have been working on for quite some time now. This specific 'section' is for the Supreme Competitor award, in which points are given for the showman's placing in showmanship, ONE highest placing animal in market classes, ONE highest placing animal in breeding classes, and the showman's score on a quiz. I'm having a problem assigning 'points' for a single highest placing animal in market and breeding classes.
I would like to create a query/s that selects all animals shown by an exhibitor in a market class, then take the highest placing animal that the exhibitor had and award (update the livestock table-points field) points for a single animal. This is fine until one exhibitor has MORE than one animal that received 1st place. How do I go about telling the query to just pick one, lol... it doesn't matter which 1st place animal it selects to award the points... just as long as only ONE animal is updated and not all of the exhibitor's animals that received 1st... Then do this again to select one highest placing animal from the breeding classes.
Here's a little outline just for visual sake:
Market Classes
Name Tag No Class Placing <points field update>
Sally Johnson 100 1 1st 10
Sally Johnson 101 2 1st
Sally Johnson 102 3 1st
Kim Smith 200 1 2nd 5
Kim Smith 201 4 2nd
Kim Smith 202 5 3rd
See where Sally received 3 1st places, but only one of them is selected to be updated, and Kim received 2 2nd places (her highest placing) and only one is updated.
Thanks SO much in advance... this has really got me stumped.

View 2 Replies View RelatedTable Select Field Shows Up As A Number To Text?
Sep 3, 2015I have a KidShop table that shows the Diagnosis for the person,there are 5 diagnosis fields because one person could have up to 5 Diagnosis and each field is a lookup from the diagnosis table.in the report they show up as the ID number not and not the text.
I inserted Diagnosis from the Diagnosis Table and a window popped up asking what Diagnosis from the Diagnosis table matched in the KidShop Table and gave the selection of Diagnosis 1 or 3 or 3 or 4 or 5. I could only select one and I selected Diagnosis1 in the KidShop table and that showed Diagnosis as text for the Diagnosis1 field but the other 4 diagnosis fields still show a number. I understand what that did but it does not give me the option to match Diagnosis 2,3,4,5 to diagnosis Table. If I changed the Data source for the other 4 to Diagnosis then only Diagnosis1 shows up it the other 4 fields which makes since.
General :: Select Item Number From Drop Down Box To Create A Report
Jun 27, 2012I'm currently working on fixing an older 97 database that I've updated to 2010. I have just populated the Drop down box with about three fields. Ideally what I want to do is after having selected the item number from the drop down box I then hit the button that creates a report with the information about that item number.
At the moment...If the box is blank it reports all the item numbers, however if i fill the box(select an item) it returns nothing i.e the report is blank.
I've looked at the query that builds the report, there are only three fields that populate the. location, part number and description. from a tbl called MainDetails
the only other thing:
If([Forms]![frmReports]![FLoc] Is Null,[FUNCTIONAL LOCATION] Is Not Null,[FUNCTIONAL LOCATION] Like [Forms]![frmReports]![FLoc])
it has a criteria of <>False
*FLoc is the drop down box *functional location is the location field.
I believe all the above does is populate the report if Floc is empty.
What can I put to make the report generate what ever I pick in the drop down box 'FLoc' source the three fields from the 'MainDetails table'.
Forms :: Limited Number Of Records In Continuous Form / But Now Can't Add Records
Mar 22, 2013One shows my form with the Transporters Subform with 3 entries, and 1 entry.The three line items that say "Transporter" are in one subform. I used this code
Code:
Private Sub Form_Current()
If Me.RecordsetClone.RecordCount >= 3 Then
Me.AllowAdditions = False
End If
End Sub
to limit the number of records I can add to 3 or less.My issue is that I lost the blank text box that allows you to add another record. So, if I only have one Transporter listed, there's no box to let me add a second or third.I have the following properties for the Transporters Subform set to "Yes":
Data Entry
Allow Additions
Allow Deletions
Allow Edits
Allow Filters

Appending Records With A Desired Auto Number In A Table With Auto Number
Oct 26, 2005Here is my issue. In a table with an Auto Number index some records have been deleted. I have been able to recreate them along with their original auto number. The problem is that I do not know how to append these records forcing the original auto number. I have tried changing the auto number field to a number field in the table, this works except I cannot change it back to auto number.
I am sure I’m not the first with this question or issue. I did search through a couple hundred entries about auto number before I posted this question.

Jun 12, 2007Hi,
My question 'sounds' easy, but i can't think of a way to do this. Please help!
Ok, i have an 'employee' history table with 200K records. Each employee could have multiple records with different 'effective' dates(please see below for an example of two employees' records). What I want to do is to run a query where it will pick up ONLY the top TWO records of each emplyee. How would I go about doing this?
Thank you.

Calender To Select Records
Oct 24, 2006I was wondering if anyone has seen a easy way to use a calender to select records rather than having to type in a "between such and such a date".
Because what i have now is a qry that pulls data from a table between two dates. And i would like to make it more GUI rather than typing to prevent user imput error if you understand what i mean.
I tried searching but didnt know what to search for.
Thanks for anyone that has any input!
Regards,
Jon
