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?
I have created a work order application, and the process is that it takes total number ordered of an item, divides it by a factor, and then prints x number of work orders, example qty ordered 300 = 5 work orders, 4@72 and 1@12, my question is, now I want to appended the work order number with a count number, example wo555-1, wo555-2 and so on, grouping on the work order number, so each work order start again at 1. I am stumped, can anyone help.
I have an existing table with a field labelled Job Number (17 Job Numbers). Each month I import a new table and match each record via another field (serial number). For each new record, one or many, I want to attach a sequential Job Number. In this example the new job numbers need to start at 18 then 19 etc. How is this possible? I am fairly new to Access so please be gentle!. Cheers
I need to generate line numbers for an access query. This query is run via VB code. After it runs, a Dlookup is performed to search for the line number of a particular order detail id. When it finds it, it puts the line number along with other unique order detail information into a text file to be used by a computerized saw that cuts the parts out. Here's a sample query:
The query is supposed to be sorted with SortID Descending, Frmlgth Ascending, Stilelgth Ascending - in that order. The sort is working fine. However, the Sequential numbering is not. The OrderdetailID has NO bearing on the sort order. Here is my SQL code:
SELECT OrderDetails.OrderDetailID, ProductTypes.ProductTypeSortOrder, OrderDetails.FrameStileLengthActual, OrderDetails.FrameRailLengthActual, OrderDetails.OrderID, (SELECT count(*) FROM OrderDetails As x WHERE x.orderdetailid <= OrderDetails.orderdetailid AND x.orderid = orderdetails.orderid) AS SeqNo FROM OrderDetails INNER JOIN ProductTypes ON OrderDetails.ProductType = ProductTypes.ProductType GROUP BY OrderDetails.OrderDetailID, ProductTypes.ProductTypeSortOrder, OrderDetails.FrameStileLengthActual, OrderDetails.FrameRailLengthActual, OrderDetails.OrderID HAVING (((OrderDetails.OrderID)=[forms]![orders]![orderid])) ORDER BY ProductTypes.ProductTypeSortOrder, OrderDetails.FrameStileLengthActual DESC , OrderDetails.FrameRailLengthActual DESC;
Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm not too good with SQL, but I can figure it out (I think!). I've searched all the formus, but all the reference I can find regarding this don't work for me in my application...
Just trying to figure out how I can run a select query on some data I have and how to also include an additional field which has a value counting the number of rows.... eg in the first row there would be the usual results and the new field would have a value of 10001, second row would be 10002, third would be 10003.
I've done some searches for sequential numbering but couldnt find anything so far.
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:
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;
I 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.
I have column called "order" in table called "mov" and this column has this layout
Code: 1 2 14 255 222 1755 12
And I want to update this column to be corrected numbering from 1 to the last cell number - lets say it 17540 - this update has no criteria conditions, just this field.
How 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 have a question concerning the automatically sequential numbering of a primary key as part of a composite primary key.
Tbl_treatment: ID=numeric field (also in tbl_pt and in tbl_tumor) Tumornr=numeric field (also in tbl_tumor) Treatmentnr=numeric field
[ID] and [tumornr] are fixed and i would like to automatically number [treatmentnr] per [ID] AND [tumornr] in a way that the output will look like this:
However, when i use the SQL-formula below my output looks like this. It seems as if the function is not properly taking the composite primary key of [ID] AND [tumornr] into account or not finding the true max value:
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 Title 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've received a database that is a digitized population register from the 19th century. All adults have been entered into the database, but all children are missing.
Every person has a unique number that corresponds with the original source (this variable is called 'no', this is not the autonumber primary key thing). Instead of searching in the original source which numbers are still missing, I would like to add the missing numbers (with no additional information, because I still need to type that in).
For example, the table now looks like this:
no - name_last - name_first - occupation etc
1 Smith Henry baker 2 Smith Mary 5 Williams John butcher 6 and so on
So 3 and 4 are missing.
How can I add these missing numbers automatically?
Hi, Newbie Question, what can I include in my code to prevent a user from entering a date into a textbox (via code via combo boxes) that is an earlier date than the last or latest date field record entry. The two questions I s'pose I'm asking are how do I reference that last or latest Record (which maybe the user just inputted via the form) & how do I approach the code. The user will be inputting data for his club members for a monthly sporting event & I'm trying to prevent him accidentally entering an earlier date than the last meet.
Hello, I am very new to access and I am trying to create a simple sytem to help us create part numbers. We are using a 2 digit descriptor to help define the part some. Then we want to add a sequential 7 digit number on to that.
Example:
01 (is electrical) 02 (Shop supplies) etc....
So...
01-0000001 would be a part number for an electrical part.
I do not understand how to have access add the zeros to the front. I would also like to be able to jump a bit out of line to reserve part numbers for certain projects and also include some that we already have.
If this make any sense to anyone, any help would be appreciated!
I think I am missing sth here, after I set my new group then I create my new user, then what! How can I specify which user to login with? Will the user be promoted for a username and a password?
For a little light relief I thought I would delve into the joys of security groups and immersed in searches and reading material. From what I have learnt so far, yes FE / BE best approach and take time, as obviously easy to get wrong and difficult to undo.
Not looking for the answer, just a hint that I'm on the right track
The FE groups settings is where the bulk of the detailed work is required? The BE groups settings are to ensure the correct read / write access to the tables? I am thinking of making FE groups as BE users (smart or dumb) to simplify this end?
I have a dataset with an age field which just stored an age. I want to run a query which will calculate the frequency based on all age groups 20-30,30-40.
This is the tables in my database, it is a database of the upcoming Beijing Olympics. I am aiming to have a medal count for each country which is in the current database. As it has the capabilities to expand therefore I am trying to avoid the need to create a whole new query for each country I add, also it would be preferable to be able to have all of the countries on the same report, so that I can compare the totals. Is there some way I can count the total of each group of records (each country) for the field where 'MedalType' = "Gold", "Silver" and "Bronze". Also the calculation needs to be done before the report so that I can order by the total. I am new to this so can answers be preferably in layman's terms.
There is a field in the query called "FinalisedDate" which is a date/time field. I want a button called Current that when pressed it shows all records where the FinalisedDate field is Null which is to be the default of when the form is open.. Another button called "Aged" is pressed it only shows records that have the FinalisedDate field has a value (i.e. not null). I want another button that shows All Records (i.e Current and Aged).
I hope anyone can help. I have searched the forums but did not find a similar problem that I can copy.
This is a multi-faceted question may the answer to the first may help the second. I have two option groups each with two options in each. The first is called Frame 57 and has two options A ( the wizard assigned a value of 1) and B (assigned a value of two). The second is called frame 58 and has two options C ( the wizard assigned a value of 1) and D (assigned a value of 2). I have set enable on Frame 58 to No.
My aim: If I choose A in Frame 57 then I want Frame 58 (with both options) to become enabled. If I choose B in Frame 57 then I want Frame 58 to remain un-enabled.
When writing the code do I Put it in the Click event of the FRAME? and should i refer to the option groups by their name (ie: A or B) or by their assigned value (1 or 2).
This is what I have at the moment Private Sub Frame57_Click() If Frame.57 = 1 Then Frame58.Enabled = True Else Frame58.Enabled = False End If End Sub
This seems to work though when I return close and re-open the form Frame 58 (even if it was chosen and enabled) is now not enabled even though the option is Frame 57 is correct and visible.
I need to randomise participants in an Access 2000 db into four groups. Let's say these are 1, 2, 3 and 4. This in itself is not the problem. The problem is that I need to keep the numbers of participants in each group approximately equal, say to within a tolerance of 4.
Can anyone point me in the right direction please?
