I have a TV Episode database. In the database I want to number each episode of a show. How do I autonumber a show's episodes when sorted by season then episode and have the autonumber restart at 1 when it hits a new show title?
View RepliesI have a query that groups the data by customer. How can I create a "Transaction Number" field where I assign a sequential number to each invoice, starting at 1 with the oldest invoice and increasing the sequential number by 1 with each invoice. I need to create this field in a query without code.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a linked table with 3 significant columns in it:
Marque
Model
Volumes
(there's actually about 12, but I only need these)
and I need to create a new table summarising the contents and creating new columns at the same time
Marque
Model
Model_name (concatenate marque and model, easy to do)
Vols sorted: Descending
Rank (this is the problem)
I need to 'Rank' the table so the model with the highest volumes is ranked #1 the second highest is #2 and so on.
Is there a command within access to allow this to happen? in SQL-Plus from Oracle I can use the Rownum command to create the entry, but this does not have an equivilent in access.
At present, I'm creating the table without the rank field, then adding it in design view, setting it for autonumber, saving, and resetting it to number. This is long-winded and frankly, messy and wrong. I shuld be able to do this in one go, but I can't. I've been using access for about 6 years solid and have not been able to resolve this 3-month-old problem and it's driving me mad.
Thanks in advance for your help.
I've taken on the task of transitioning excel reports (and their format) to a database. One report summarizes all the parts of a piece of furniture, and the order of the machines each part goes to.It looks similar to this:
Part# Part Name Machines/Operations
M7264Top Panel 112114116120121325216
M7265Under Top Panel 112114116120121
M7266Base Assembly 411325216311310312316
The table this comes from has both operations and setups, so I used a query to filter only the operations.The query (qryOperations) result looks like this:
PART NUMBEROPERATION ORDER
M7264 112 2
M7264 114 4
M7264 116 6
M7264 120 7
M7264 121 8
M7264 325 9
M7264 216 10
M7265 112 2
M7265 114 4
M7265 116 6
M7265 120 8
M7265 121 9
i need to add sequential numbering (1,2,3,4...) to each line of the qryOperations and use the sequential numbering as the column header.How do I add sequential numbers to the query, that restart after each change in part number? I can do this in a report easy enough, but not a query.This is the SQL of the query I need to have the sequential numbers in...
SELECT tblparts.[PART NUMBER], tblOperationCodes.MachineCode, tblOperationsList.Order
FROM tblparts INNER JOIN (tblOperationsList INNER JOIN tblOperationCodes ON tblOperationsList.OperationCode = tblOperationCodes.OperationCode) ON tblparts.[PART NUMBER] = tblOperationsList.[PART#]
WHERE (((tblOperationCodes.Function)="O"))
ORDER BY tblparts.[PART NUMBER], tblOperationsList.Order;
Hi all,
I have been trying to incorporate an access DB in to our business for sometime, but keep coming up against the same issue. We have a numbering system for the jobs we do, which was invented many years ago and cannot be changed. It is in the format "month/Year/unique 3 digits" the 3 digits are sequential, i.e. 02/07/123 ... 02/07/124... etc. I will need this all in one field.
So far I have managed to get the month and year (easy enough) with the expression "=Month(Now()) & "/" & Right(Year(Now()),2) & "/"" Now I need to get the sequential 3 digits at the end, however, I am not sure of any way to do this and it has stumped many people. I have a field that is autonumbered, but don't seem to be able to add this to the end of the expression.
If any of you have any suggestions I would be greatful - bear in mind I am only a begginer at this.
Thanks in advance.
How could let me get auto invoice number.... like press Button or combo box??
Here we got some related info: 10 customers, each I'd like to get invoice number with their own prefix, example ICP, CUC and etc...
Then, I would like numbering to be incremental from each customer, mean: CUC001, CUC002, then, ICP001, CUC003 and so on...
When I need to put these invoice number into Data Entry table which like below:
Load Date>>Customer>>Particular>>Quantity>>invoice No
1/Jan/2014>>ICP>>part A>>100>>ICP001
3/Jan/2014>>ICP>>part B>>200>>ICP001
5/Jan/2014>>CUC>>part C>>50>>CUC001
18/Jan/2014>>CUC>>part B>>200>>CUC001
23/Jan/2014>>ICP>>part C>>50>>ICP001
I could not use 'Auto Numbering' for each line, as I need out some lines accumulated for one invoice number 'ICP001'.
My questions:
1. What can I do to let me Automatic generate invoice number which increment from last number?
2. What can I do to let me easy to put those 'invoice number' into my Data Entry table's invoice number field? (p/s: Append Query? Update Query?)
3. What if I need sorting (example to group ONE customer and ONE Particular) for my invoicing number? What I meant is ... let say there is 30 lines customer CUC with particular Part B in a same month, and I wanna get them into same invoice number.
I have a database with numerous nutrient lab values per food item and zero to 20 tests per food item; some 600 food items
I want to select the last 5 tests per food item which should be no problem using the "TOP " type statement.
After I have the "TOP 5" record I would like to create another field to number each record automatically with in the query so I can run a cross tab query to display these records 1 thru 5.
Is that possible?
My ID field is an auto-assigned number. Is there any way to restart the auto-numbering at number 1?
View 14 Replies View RelatedHow I can create a sequential number in a field that looks like this:
Year-XXX-00
(Example: 15-100-00 -- the next sequential number would be 15-101-00)
I don't want to hard code the year, and the last 2 numbers must be entered manually.
It gets even more exciting --> this number has to be able to be duplicated in a table. Those last 2 numbers is a revision number. We might have a 15-100-00, 15-100-01, 15-100-02, etc.
I ran some code to number old records in a column to order items in a datasheet subform however after updating the column in the inventory transactions table when opening the main form that relies on it. It runs a query to determine the customers balance due and the query for that is taking forever to run like 2-3 minutes or more however reverting to an old copy of the data it runs fine and all I did was renumber records in one column most of which had 1s in them the code to re-number the records:
Code:
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
Dim i As Long
Dim OID As Long
Dim stringSQL as String
i = 1
[Code] .....
I continued playing with this today and the query that is breaking the 2nd level subquery that actually references the inventory transactions table that I changed runs fine but go up a level to subquery1 which references subquery2 and a sum of payments query and it chokes however sum of payments only refernces the payments table.
I did some more testing today Subquery2 and sum of payments query both run faster than what I can time with a stopwatch but when combined they take approximately 1:45 there are only 5 columns in subquery1 four from subquery2 and 1 from the sum of payments 3 of the first 4 are sum and the last is group by and then the one from sum of payments is group by
Subquery 2:
Code:
SELECT
CLng((nz([UnitsSold])*nz([UnitPrice]))*(1-nz([Discount]))*100)/100 AS [Line Total],
CLng([Line Total]*(1+nz([SalesTaxRate]))*100)/100 AS [Line Total With Tax],
[Line Total With Tax]-[Line Total] AS [Line Tax],

Greetings everubody,
I've a problem and hope to get answers for,
The situation is that I have a table named patient and a form named [patient1] where it holds a textboxs named "MFC_Seq_no" and another to hold [date], now, I manged to do a manual auto numbering for "MFC_Seq_no" using the following VB :
Private Sub Form_Current()
If Me.NewRecord Then
On Error Resume Next
Me!MFC_Seq_no.DefaultValue = Nz(DMax("[MFC_Seq_no]", "Patient"), 0) + 1
End If
Whenever user create new record, the system will automatically store the next number in the new record.
Now, I've be requested to code that system to start again from 1 as value for "MFC_Seq_no" whenever there are changes in date field (i.e. next day in the date field)
Is this doable and how?
Q2. how to duplicate an entire record with a subform, from another table, in it?
Thanks,
One of my forms has a text box which is bound to a field called teenumber. This form is set up that "on current" has code
If Me.teenumber = 0 Or IsNull(Me.teenumber) Then
Me.teenumber = Nz(DMax("teenumber", "tblteeofftimesshotgun"), 0) + 1
This enables the text box teenumber to be auto filled with sequential numbers growing by 1 for each record. This database is for a golf tournament and this form enables user to set up tee times for shotgun start for the players.
When the user gets to tee number 18 or whatever the last hole on the course is the teenumber field needs to be reset to 1. With the above code I a unable to do this.
Creating a form against a table with the following fields
EC
Project
Originator

Full description
Effectivity
Etc....
Easy enough to create the Project combo box, problem comes with trying to systematically assign the next EC number.
When I select a Project from a combo box I want an EC assigned with format ECXXXX-### where XXXX is the project number from the combo box and ### is a sequential number. ECs should start at -001 for all projects.
Do I need to add an EC suffix field to hold just the ###? Then what?
I have created quite a substantial and effective database for a small gliding club with all the major data tables being linked. I need to be able to re-index tables periodically so that running totals, which are needed to calculate statement balances, works correctly - all well and good. The only problem is that the process of re-indexing requires the data in the main table to be stored temporarily and the original data deleted. When the temporary data is appended to the main table the auto-numbering just keeps clocking up.how to reset the auto-numbering in a local table.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a table called Products which has a field called "Product ID" and a few others. I have another table called "Sales", which has a field called "Sales Date".
There will be different dates where the products are sold. Here's my problem: I'm trying to make a query to find out which products make the most sales. However, doing so will also display the products separately by their sales dates. So for example, it'll show...
Product #10 / Jan 1, 2013 / 100 Sales
Product #10 / Jan 14, 2013 / 21 Sales
Product #10 / Feb 11, 2013 / 44 Sales
Product #11 / Jan 5, 2013 / 201 Sales
Product #11 / Mar 13, 2013 / 444 Sales
I'd like the products to be together so product #10 would give 165 sales for example. In the Query, Product ID from both tables are connected.
I have a requirement to categorize a field in the employee database.
The requirement is: for any given user designation, if the total number is 10 or more, I need the actual designation itself as the output. However, if a particular designation in the organization is less than 10 in total, the output should be 'Misc - and the grade'.
Also, this will need to be done for each grade as well. For example, though the staff designation 'Software Engineer' count is 15, the designation is present across two grades A and B. So, in the output, for the staff with Grade A will show the actual designation as the count is 11, and for Grade B staff with the desgination 'Software Engineer', since the count is 4, it should display the output as 'Misc - Grade B'.
I would like to achieve this in MS Access 2010.
I am trying to add a new email field to my existing database of 900 employees. I have imported an excel worksheet of email addresses into a new table that has lastname, firstname, employee#, email. The primary key on the new table is email. The primary key on the employee table is employee#, and there is a new field titled email.
The email field in both tables are text fields. In running an append query, it either adds 900 to 27000 additional fields of email only or it says cannot complete because of key code violations. On the join properties I have clicked on #3 all records from source to only equal fields of destination.
I'm quite new to Access and have inherited a database from a colleague. It is a database of references from which we have extracted pesticide active ingredient, pest species and crop species using forms. I am trying to create a query that will allow us to search and return unique active ingredient x pest x crop species combinations (but which will return all instances of this combination).
The complication is that the pest and crop species names are within the same field ('taxa'). They are distinguished by a label ('pest' or 'crop') in an associated field ('PestorPredator'), but a query using 'OR' will only return a crop OR pest, whilst a query using 'AND' will return no records (because something can't be a pest AND and crop).
I want to be able to create a table that shows the active ingredient, associated pest species AND the associated crop species each in separate columns. We have tried a couple of methods, including UNION and UNION ALL....
I am working with an inherited database. When this database was created, a large amount of data was imported. Over the course of time, I have added additional fields for tracking information. One such field is "Date Started."
Unfortunately, there are almost 500 records without this information and that is skewing some report results.
I would like to do is insert the date of 9/9/1999 into all records that have no data in this field. (This date is well before the creation of the database and would serve to indicate old records, whether or not they are still active.) Copy and pasting isn't working, and I can't do a find and replace, since there's nothing to find.
Hello,
I have one main table containing most data, that table stores data which is identifies by a unique ID (currently 1-96000), there is also an issue number, I need another numbering system per issue (so you could have issue 166, record 26), any ideas?
Is it possible to do the following?
I have a column with a heading EventNo.
The Event number must be 06-00000 The first 2 digits is the year.
In the Input Mast I have - 00/-00000 and the Default value set as 06-00000
How can I set it up so it can go to 07-00000,08-00000 and so on for next years? The Event number must start at 00001 every year.
It will be impossible to change the default value every year.
Hi I obviously have a table with records in it sorted in assending order. What I need is to know how to make it add into one of the table fields the number it is in the table. IE
Name Time Position Number
Mr Jones - 12:30 - 1
Mr Evans - 12:45 - 2
So if i added 12:35 it would change mr evans position number to 3 and make the new record position number 2.
Is there a way I can number records like 00001 , 00002 ...... 00100 .. . .. ..
I want to alot batch nombers to production lots . so the batch number should look like 000001 and not just 1.
I want to distribute certain materials (found in a query) to several warehouse locations in a sequential order.
So the first found material needs to be put in warehouse location 001,
the second found material needs to be put in warehouse location 002,
etc.
How can I number the lines in a query?
I don’t want to run a create-table-query with an auto number field because the warehouse locations are limited and every time the query runs the numbering has to start at 001.
Shall be grateful for clarifications for these two :
1. I have two fields - TheYear (set to take the current year) and another for sequential numbering. In fact I created this to replace the autonumber field. As suggested by a member I created a Generate button with the criteria as under
Private Sub Generate_Click()
If IsNull(Me![NumFld]) Then
Me![NumFld] = Format(Nz(DMax("[NumFld]", "[DiaryTable]", "[TheYear]='" & Year(Date) & "'"), 0) + 1, "00000")
End If
Me![NumFld] = Format([NumFld], "00000")
End Sub
It works fine. and when the year is changed, the numbering starts from 1 again. My question is how do I make it to auto generate the number so that the user doesnt have to click the Generate button everytime to get the number. Suggestions please.
2. Is it possible to change this sequential numbering midway i.e. to start from a different number and increment by one?
Grateful for help
We have a part numbering system that is currently like this, 11Y22 where 22 increments by one until it gets to 99 where it then goes back to 0, once it goes to 0 the letter increments to Z in this case, now once the last three characters get to Z99, then the 11 gets incremented eg, 11Z99 will become 12A00. Hope that is clear :)
My question is, can this system be implemented into the auto numbering in Access?:confused:
Thanks in advance
