Modules & VBA :: How To Get Autonumber ID Before Update / Save Record
Mar 27, 2015
I wanted to get the autonumber ID before a record was saved to the table. My fields are on a form that is linked to the table. Maybe my solution is not the most elegant but it seems to work.
I messed around and came up with this solution: it creates the next record and captures the autoID then increments it and creates the record we will actually use. Since we know the current autoID we know 100% the next will be the current+1
Code:
' Code by Witchcraftz
' Button event to add new record
Private Sub cmdAddRecord_Click()
Dim strID As String

Hello!
I am trying to update the current status of an asset, when it was returned or checked out. At the same time, save the changes in a history table to record all the changes in past. I can do individually from different tables and different forms, but I would like to do from one form and one record entry. Is it possible? If so can anybody help?
Thanks

I am creating a form that has a bunch of yes/no box for daily task. Is there a way for access to record which user selects yes/no.
For example
yes/no box1 - user 1 completed this task
yes/no box2 - user 2 completed this task
and so on
So when i look back i can see which user complete which task. I did a bit of research and saw that i can save a user that update a record. But since this is a daily task, each new record will be a new day.

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 am wanting to create a new record in a table copying the majority of the data from another record in the table. I am using the following code which creates new records but the data isn't being copied.
This is the section of code:-
' Return Control object variable pointing to list box.
Set ctlList = Me!lbStudents
' Enumerate through selected items.
For Each varItem In ctlList.ItemsSelected
' Get the info to get the enrolment record
intClientID = Me.lbStudents.Column(7, varItem)
[Code]...
what I'm doing wrong?

I need to save a new record from a form before it gets printed, the vba code behind the print button at the minute just opens the report and inserts the record in it. I need to put something in before that to save the record when the button is clicked.
The form in question is frmPlaceOrderFinal and I'm referring to the print button (command17). I've attached my system as well as an image for reference. The code that is currently behind the button:
Code:
Private Sub Command17_Click()
Dim strDocName As String
Dim strWhere As String
strDocName = "rptFinalInvoice"
strWhere = "[InvoiceID]=" & Me!InvoiceID
DoCmd.OpenReport strDocName, acPreview, , strWhere
End Sub
I need to save the record before it is opened in the report.

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.

I'm looking to add a button to my Customers form which will mailmerge the current record to a Word template and then save the Word doc as a new file (Ideally the customer's name).
I've looked at the Super Easy Mailmerge but I can't work out how to implement it without all of the variables (selecting documents etc.).
The files will all be saved to one location (C:CustomersExports) and this won't change.
This is also the location of the mailmerge template (C:CustomersExportsTemplate.docx)

I have 2 form, form1 and form 2 (picture attached)
In Form 1
(main form) there are "reference" field with key pressed event
then call form 2 (list of reference that user can choose)
In form 2
the problem is, when "enter" key pressed (keypress event), selection will move to next record
so the data that transferred to form 1 is wrong (next record)
The question is : how to save current record in form 2 before enter and send the data to form 1

So I have this relatively simple problem: I need to create a button that once clicked will open the Save As dialog box and allow the user to save a copy of the current database where he wishes. The filename should contain todays date in DDMM format along with some pre-set text e.g. DDMM PresetText.
I am using Access 2010.

I have a few selected reports on an Access 2007 database that users can run. Is there a way for users to view the report, save as a PDF and automatically save a copy to a shared drive by modules/vba coding as an On Click event procedure?

I need to update a field with the contents of 2 other fields when exiting a record. The fields (ItemNo) and (LotID) need to create or update the field (LotCode).
i.e.: ItemID (GM-235), LotID (26) will result in LotCode (GM-235-26).
I currectly use a Update Query that uses the expression:
[products].[MasterPN] & "-" & [lotid] in the lotCode Field - "Update to".
Unfortunatly, I am using a button on my form that executes the query, but it updates all the records and although it runs very fast, I would rather have it perform this task automatically when I leave the record.

I have this on the Form - On Current Event to show how many records I have on the Form, However when the employee filters the combo box's I want the record count to show the current records when they finish each filter. At the moment it just shows random numbers.
PHP Code:
Private Sub Form_Current() If Me.NewRecord Then Me.lblRecordCount.Caption = "New Record"
Else Me.lblRecordCount.Caption = _ "Record " & Me.CurrentRecord & " of " & Me.Recordset.RecordCount
End If End Sub

I have lots of combo boxes in my forms that are mostly limit to list as I want the people entering the data to actually add the full details of a client or supplier or whatever instead of just typing the information in over and over again. if the person/client/supplier is not in that list I have a button that will pop up a form so they can add a full new record but I need it so when they add the new record it will show up in the combo box in the intial form once it has been saved and closed without having to also close that initial form and reopen it or manually refreshing it.
right now I am using an if statement on the save button on my popup form that looks at what form is open and if that form is open then it refreshes that form after the save and closes which works fine but adding this to every form and combo box combination is very tedious, so I thought I would ask here, what is the best way to update combo boxes after and new record has been added via another popup form?

I found this code and have substituted parameters to suit my own needs however the loop is not working. Only the first record in my recordset (which is a test recordset of only 3 records) is being updated.
Also, for testing only, the edit or update being applied is trivial: Description = "WHITE RESIN". If i can get the loop to work I want to substitute higher functionality to the module.
Private Sub Update_Click()
Dim dbs As DAO.Database
Dim rsQuery As DAO.Recordset
Set dbs = CurrentDb
Set rsQuery = dbs.OpenRecordset("qryRmResin", dbOpenDynaset)

I have a database which is slowly evolving. Users needed a feature to delete some records without a trail and some with a trail from the form. So I added an apply action field in the subform using which they can delete a record without a trail and if they wanted to keep a trail they could do that too. When user selects "Delete Violations as it was entered in error" the system deletes the record completely which is what everyone wanted.
After six months of use now I am asked to add an audit trail. I managed to do that also. I also looked at Browne's method but my data structure does not match the requirements for that method. I used an alternate method. It works as intended except when a record is completely deleted using the code I mentioned above. Then it goes in the infinite loop. I somehow need to bypass the before update event so that the function to write the audit trail is not called.
I have attached the database ...

I have a table with a multi-select listbox as one of the fields. I want to loop through the recordset (table) and changes the listbox selections for each record.
To go into a little more detail, the table (tblEmail) has a field (Label) that is a multi-select listbox. The listbox pulls from another table (tblLabel). I want to loop through records in tblEmail and edit/change the Label(s) for each email though VBA.
I've tried doing something like this:
Code:
With rst
.MoveFirst
Do Until rst.EOF
.Edit
!Label.Selected(0) = True
.Update
Loop
End With
However I get an error that says "Run-Time Error '438' Object doesn't support this property or method" ...

On a push of a button from a form, I want to locate specific records within the table and update a field to Null if it matches a name
Dim strSQL As String
strSQL = "UPDATE tblmaster SET Score = "" WHERE [AdvocateName] = 'Anna Maria'"
DoCmd.RunSQL (strSQL)
I'm certain I don't have the syntax correct between the Set to Null and WHERE clauses..
