Increment Number
Oct 14, 2004This is the problem. If I have a field that contains something like this:
GHP-K-0000D
How can I make the number portion (0000) increment by one when a check box is checked?
Thanks in advance

I would like to know if there is any procedure to restrict/stop auto number increment for certain number of record count (say 50), then increment by 1 for next 50 records.

Hi There
Looking to see if there is an easy solution to this problem I have.
I have a table which holds order information, the primary key for this table is orderID which is an autonumber.
The field in question is order number, which has a default value of "JJO"00000, which I have started manually at JJO10001, is there anyway i can get my database to automatically increment this number to save me from keep checking the last order number produced.
Lost count of the number of times I have gave the same order number to numerous customers.
Thanks
Hello ALL,
I want to know how to reset (to start again from 1) my primary key field. As an example i have the "Customers" table with the field "customerID" as PK now i entered many values (20) then i deleted them but i want to start again and the "customerID" value starts with 21 i understand that but i want a fresh DB (i was testing things) and i want to start from 1 can i? how? i even deleted the relation between this table and the other table but no success!
Some help please?
THX in advance

I'm trying to code for a 'duplicate record' button on a form that, as well as copying the values of all the controls of the previous record to the new record, makes a certain control (which contains a number) increment as appropriate.
There are two controls on the form which contain the start and end values of a numerical sequence (of potentially any length) e.g. the range 48-82 shows 48 in text box boxREGSEQSTART and 82 in the text box boxREGSEQEND OR the single value 99 shows 99 in text box boxREGSEQSTART and text box boxREGSEQEND is empty. In a record, the value of boxREGSEQEND would always be higher than that of boxREGSEQSTART or would be blank.
The appropriate incrementing action would be:
After clicking 'Duplicate Record' button, If there is no value in boxREGSEQEND in the record being copied, then in the new duplicated record the value of boxREGSEQSTART should be 1 greater than the value of boxREGSEQSTART in the record it has been copied from.
i.e. the record being copied is records a single item, a single value, and the next record should show the sequence moved on by one
OR
If there is a value in boxREGSEQEND in the record being copied, then in the new duplicated record the value of boxREGSTART should be 1 greater than the value of boxREGSEQEND in the record it has been copied from.
i.e. the record being copied is recording multiple items, a sequence, but the next record should still show the sequence moved on by one
I can get the duplication to work no problem, and I can get the incrementing to work fine for the first set of conditions, but can't for the life of me get it to increment when there is a range!
The logic (in my head, expressed as best I can in the macro language ) for the whole sequence of actions goes like so:
RunMenuCommandCommand SelectRecordRunMenuCommandCommand CopyRunMenuCommandRecordsGoToNewRunMenuCommandCommand SelectRecordRunMenuCommandCommand Paste
If [boxREGSEQEND]=[IsNull] Then
GoToControlControl Name boxREGSEQSTARTSetValueItem = [boxREGSEQSTART]
Expression = [boxREGSEQSTART]+1Else
GoToControlControl Name boxREGSEQSTARTSetValueItem = [boxREGSEQSTART]
Expression = [boxREGSEQEND]+1GoToControlControl Name boxREGSEQENDSetValueItem = [boxREGSEQEND]
Expression = [boxREGSEQEND]=Null
Which I would assume would tell the program to copy the current record, make a new one and paste the copy, then if there was a range recorded in the original, start the numbering of the new record one number higher than the end of that range and clear the way in the new form in case it also records a range, otherwise just increment the sequence along by one.
I have a daabase that I am importing via excel. I want the entries to be numbered
ex: MT0001
MT0002
etc....
I would like it to promt the user for the last number(or next number in sequence) entered, then fill in the blank records with the next increment number.
The prefix will also change to so eventually the user would enter into the prompt RD0001. then autofill the 140 imported records with RD0002, rd0003... etc....
I can't really make seperate fields because the MT0001 number will become a barcode and putting them seperate causes many issues.
can this be done? Any help would be great I am still a beginner but slowly learning!
Thanks!
I am working on a section of code that when a user clicks a button it looks at a table called TBLVersion and increments the version number. The version number format is 1.0.1 what I need the code to do is increment the last digit by one for example to "1.0.2". I got the flowing code to work in excel but could not figure out how to translate it to access.
=LEN(A1)-SEARCH(".",A1,SEARCH(".",A1)+1)
=RIGHT(A1,B1)
How do I increment record id like given below:
2014/1
2014/2
2014/3
And when year ends
2015/1
2015/2
Like other posters, I need the default value to be the last value plus one. I am using a subform, and the field I need to increment is ITEMNUMBER for items that are ordered for a specific project.
It is acceptable to me to replace ITEMNUMBER with 1 for the first item, I just want it to increment after that.
Clearly the use of DMAX in this situation will not work as ITEMNUM would continue to increment so that any given project might have ITEMNUM values as, for instance, 357-363 when it needs to be 1-7.
BTW - if I could use the maximum value I would set the default value of ITEMNUM on my form as:
(DMax("[ITEMNUM]";"Projects"))+1
I have two tables, Articles and Versions, related 1 to many. In my Versions table I want to set up a field that will start at 0 for the first version record related to an article record, and as version records are added in relation to that same article record I want it to increment by 1, no gaps. It ideally would be editable. It will not likely count above 5.
The result would be
Code:
article1 version0
article1 version1
article1 version2
article2 version0
article2 version1
article2 version2
article2 version3
What's the best way to accomplish this?
create a macro that automatically fills in the next invoice number in sequence",,I'm assuming this macro would look at the value of the previous record and add a one to itI don't want to use a AutoNumber field as I might need
(a) to modify value or
(b) need to skip numbers.
I have a master/child forms. in master form sale_id,collection notes are placed. and in child form all collection details like collectionnumber,date,etc., child form look like datasheet view.
When i select the record from the list depending on the sale_id all the collection records shown in datasheet view form. If no record is there ok. if more than one records are there in collections of sale_id.i need count of records in collection depending on sale_id and also if i select one row in collection, notes to be shown for that record when i clik on shownotes button.
If more than one record in collection automatically it increment. how many collections for the sale_id. collection number would be increment. How and also show notes depending on collection number and sale_id.
Hi All
How to assign value to a field based on the value of the same field in the previous record?
Autonumber has its limitations for my purpose. Because, after I start filling up a form, I some times cancel the form filling process, and it affects the continuous numbering.
I guess the issue can be resolved by using some thing like record count facility. i.e. current' record's field value = number of records till previous record + 1.
How to exactly codify or execute the above by vba coding.
The Field Name is "SerialNo.", and Table Name is "StudentData"
Thanks

I have a database that has a few tables and in one of them (Originators), there is all the info about my loan originators including there comission level. I would like it when they turn in a certain amount of loans there commision level will increase. Is this posible? Here is my DB setup.
Tables:
Originators- 1 to many-
OriginatorID,FirstName,LastName,OrigSSN, Address,City,State,PostalCode,HomePhone,WorkPhone, CellPhone,FaxNumber,EmailName,BirthDate,Level(This is the commision level, and its in %).
Customers- 1 to many-CustomerID,FirstName,LastName,SSN,HomePhone,MobiPh one,FaxNumber,Address,City,State,Zip,Email,BirthDa te,CreditScore,SpouseFirst,SpouseLast,SpouceSSN,Sp ouceBirthDate,SpouceCreditScore,OriginatorID.
Loans- many to 1-
LoanID,LoanType,StartDate,EndDate,LoanLender,Custo merID.
Lenders- 1 to 1-
ID,LoanLender.
When a customer is added to the DB it is done with a form that has OriginatorID(which is autocreated), CustomerID(also auto) and some other of the customer stuff like phone numbers. When this happens I would like to have the originators % level increase, say after every 4 customers entered. Is it possible?
Thanks,
Scott
I am importing an Excel file with existing data using the Import wizard to build my table. It has an ID field (CID) which I would like to keep and set to auto increment starting with the next number.
Can this be done ?
Hi,
Need a little help with rounding up. In A2K I have a form with a textbox that displays a security deposit. Security deposit is calculated by rounding the payment to the next $25 increment, hence a payment of 324.53 should have a security deposity of $325.00, but a payment of $325.01 should have a security deposit of $350.00. The code I am using for a datasource for txtSecurity deposit usually works correctly, but for this payment ($324.53) it rounds to $350.00. Here is the code..
=(([txtPayment]25)*25+[txtSecDepRndTo])
txtSecDepRndTo holds the $25 incremental value.
Incidentally, if the payment is $324.49 my code rounds the Security Deposit to $325.00 as it should.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
i have 2 field "CLIENT ID" and "CLIENT CODE". when i post a new record, i want the "CLIENT ID" and "CLIENT CODE" to merge to give me 1 field "CLIENT". the CLIENT CODE should be prompted for eg. THO or BLT and added to the CLIENT ID which will compose of 001 or 002. The CLIENT ID should also increment when each new CLIENT record is posted.
The example should make things clear.
CLIENT ID CLIENT CODE CLIENT
001 THO THO001
002 THO THO002
001 BLT BLT001
it should look up the last CLIENT value and then for the new record just continue on the previous entry.
Hi
I have a numeric field called FileNo and an autonumber field called FileID in a table called tblFile.
I also have a lookup numeric field called FileTypeID (with values 1 or 2 or 3) on another table called tblFileType.
I need the value of FileNo which I am showing on a Form frmFile to change dependant on the value of the FileTypeID
i.e. If FileTypeID = 1 FlieNo should start at 100
If FileTypeID = 2 FileNo should start at 200
If FileTypeID = 3 FileNo should start at 300
Then when I create a new record I need to increment by 1 the value of FileNo according to the FileTypeID
I've setup a button and attached this code to its onclick event but it only works as long as I don't change the FileTypeID
Dim B As Integer
Dim H As Integer
Dim N As Integer
Do While FileID > 0
DoCmd.GoToRecord,,acPrevious
If FileTypeID = 1 Then
B = FileNo
Else
If FileTypeID = 2 Then
H = FileNo
Else
If FileTypeID = 3 Then
N = FileNo
End If
End If
End If
Loop
DoCmd.GoToRecord,,acLast
If FileType = 1 Then
FileNumber = B + 1
Else
If FileType = 2 Then
FileNumber = H + 1
Else
If FileType = 3 Then
FileNumber = N + 1
End If
End If
End If

Hello,
Can someone tell me how I can change the increment in an existing database.
The PK is currently Auto ID with each new record currently 1001, 1002 and so on.
What I am trying to do is say starting monday the next new entry begins at 5003 versus 1003, in essence I am trying to change my first number to a 5 versus a 1.
Is this possible?
Thanks..

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm not sure if it's a simple task, keep in mind I'm new to using access. We have a need at work for a small db just to keep track of some things and access seems appropriate.
I was attempting to set up the primary key in a date / increment format.
Basically the format would be year, month, day, increment (starting at 001)
060125-001
060125-002
060125-003
etc
next day I would like the key to change according to date and reset the increment to start again at 001
060126-001
060126-002
etc
I do realize they are different data types, I'm just not sure how to attack setting it up. Thank you in advance for any help / suggestions. :)
Here's my query:
SELECT units, nation, unique_brigades,
Switch ( [unique_brigades]='A', 2000, [unique_brigades]='B',3000, [unique_brigades]='C',4000) AS brigade_number,
unit_urn_desc AS urn_desc
FROM units
What I'd like to be able to do is increment the values (2000,3000,4000) by 1 for each new row. Does anyone know a way to do this?
Hi all,
I am trying to get the formula to round to 15 seconds to charge rating events.:confused:
so 76 seconds will calculate up to 90 seconds..
& 91 will be 105 seconds.. and so on.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks Dean
Hi Everyone,
I will do my best to try and explain what I am trying to accomplish.
I have a form that has two fields [NumbX] and [NumbY]
They way they display on my form is [Numbx] of [NumbY]. These two field show which transaction of the total number of transactions. So basically if someone comes in to do a transaction, they could be doing just one ([NumbX =1] and [NumbY] =1). If they are doing 3 transactions the fields would be [NumbX]=1 and [NumbY]=3. As they complete subsequent transactions [NumbX] increased incrementally, until X =Y.
Every transaction ends with a Print Form opening and the user confirming the printing of the transaction. In the print form I have coded it to clear the main form once X= Y otherwise retain some of the information input in some of the fields for the subsequent transactions. Right now, I have it set up that the user inputs [NumbX] manually. What I would like to do is have that automatically increase by 1 when the print form closes. This should continue until [NumbX]=[NumbY].
The fields are unbound and used solely for driving other activity (opening other forms) so autonumber is not an option.
Any suggestions??
Thanks
