How can I reset my Tables without affecting the Relationships
ViRi
Currently I'm working on an invoicing database in which I can register my customers (or partners) and also make invoices and purchase orders. So far, it does exactly what I want it to do, but I'm struggling with the invoice numbers. What I want to have is that whenever I make a new record, the next invoice number in sequence is automatically assigned to it. Another desire is that this number is prefixed with the current year, and the counter should reset with every new year. So, for example:
2015001
2015002
2015003
etc.
Then
2016001
2016002
etc.
Don't worry about the maximum of 999 invoices, because I won't ever go beyond that limit.
Is there a way to reset the auto numbering? I import new data then archive the old data. As I do this weekly my auto numbers are getting high and my users do not care for this aspect
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have split the database I have created via the splitter-wizard and found that all tables with auto-numbers have re-set back to 1.
How do I get around this problem - I have tried running an append query but it flags up an error message. For certain functions to work in the database I need to set autonumbers at different amounts .
There is a autonumber column in one table Order.Everyday I need delete records in Order and then append records into it.Doing so, autonumber keeps on increasing.Is there any way to reset Autonumber from 0 after deleting records?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a table which will be completely emptied and refilled. The table has a field autonumbered it is also the primary key. When the table is refilled I want this field to start from 1. How can I do that. Yes some people will say this subject has been discussed search for it. But here the issue is somewhat different we have an existing field and I do not want to compact the database each time the procedure runs.

View 6 Replies View RelatedSo 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?

Hi all,
Ive written a program in .net and am currently using an access db as the backend.
In the db I had 200 test records which i deleted to get the db ready for deployment. When i add a new record now the primary key on my "booking" table carries on from the old test number so 201.
Can I resest this so it starts back at #1 as once the db gets updated, the program i wrote then takes the data and updates the accounting system and uses the primary key as the invoice number and so I would like to start at 1.
Thanks in advance

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!

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.
I'm building a form for a clinic.
Insured patients have deductables and copays that usually reset on January 1st.
To be clear, a deductable of $500 is reduced each time the patient pays, but jumps back to $500 at the beginning of the next year.
The table containing patient records has a deductable field, where the form gets the initial value. I'll be making a running calculation of how much remains after each visit, but that calculation has to start over again each year.
Can anyone suggest code to do this or point me at something similar?
Anyone know how to reset the autonumber for access ? Cox It keep running the number and I just seem can't make it back.
Also if there is some records which mistaken keyin I deleted it keep go for next new number. It would be a waste for that number.

Is it possible to set autonumer to start from 1 again after all records in a database have been deleted?
View 7 Replies View RelatedAccess 2007.. I have a check box in a form that I wish to reset using a command button. How do I achieve this or is there a more efficient way to make this happen?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a cumlative DB that exports a file daily based on what was keyed daily..
Therfore, every day I am sending only new records from the DB to a vendor.
I was using autonumber to assign the record number but they now want the record number to restart at 1 for a new days worth of data entry.
So today's file may have record number 1-10 (10 recs) and tomorrow's file would have 11-20 populated om the record number field.
My new record number would have to be 1-10 today and 1-10 tomorrow etc..
Not sure how to do this easily.
thanks!!!
I have two fields
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?
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 the following event procedure in my Reset button on my form:
Private Sub cmdClearAll_Click()
' Clear All TextBoxes and Set all Check boxes to false (no tick)
Dim ctl As Control
For Each ctl In Me.Controls
If ctl.ControlType = acTextBox Then
ctl.Value = ""
ElseIf ctl.ControlType = acCheckBox Then
ctl.Value = False
End If
Next ctl
Set ctl = Nothing
End Sub
I also have a macro on my execute button which opens another form, Form B, runs the query behind the new form and closes the query.
I noticed that when I open my current form, Form A, click the reset button to clear all the fields and then fill in a few fields or leave the fields blank and then click the Execute button. The query does not run at all and Form B opens up blank with no data populated. Do you know why? But if close the form and reopen it and click the execute button, it works okay? Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?
Please help
Thanks for your help.
I have a form I have created used to inventory items on trailers.
User enters the trailer number, uses labeled checkboxes to indicate items on the trailer. I then added a save button to update the trailer database.
Now what I want it to do is clear all the checkboxes so a new number can be entered an start the process over for a new trailer.
Ive added this command to the save button.
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Private Sub save_datta_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_save_datta_Click
DoCmd.DoMenuItem acFormBar, acRecordsMenu, acSaveRecord, , acMenuVer70
Exit_save_datta_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_save_datta_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_save_datta_Click
End Sub
Im trying but I am in over my head.
Thanks
