Sequential Numbering Within Groups

Aug 8, 2005

Hi all,

Simple question (I hope)...

Need to devise a way of updating a field with an ascending sequential number within a group of records of similar type.

e.g.

Say I have records which consists of numerous IDs and various job descriptions within the each ID

13000 Head of Maths 1
13000 School Secretary 1
13000 Head of Maths 2
13000 Head of Maths 3
13000 School Secretary 2
14000 Head of Maths 1

So in this case each 'Head of Maths' and 'School Secretary' sequentially increments until there is a new ID.

Any help appreciated.

thanks,
Alex

Sequential Numbering

Apr 3, 2007

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

Numbering Groups

Jan 8, 2008

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.

Sequential Numbering With A Difference!

Oct 12, 2005

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

Sequential Numbering Of Query

Nov 19, 2005

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:

DetailID SortID Frmlgnth Stilelgnth OrderID SeqNo
1874864127.12511.9375160004
1874866127.1259.6875160006
1874868127.1258.5160008
1874869127.1255.8125160009
1874867111.8758.8125160007
1874863110.12514.875160003
1874865110.12510.5625160005
1874871221.62514.3751600011
1874872221.62513.81251600012
1874873221.62513.56251600013
1874875221.62511.68751600015
1874876221.62511.6251600016
1874877221.62511.06251600017
1874870221.2516.31251600010
1874874219.12511.751600014
1874878219.12510.251600018
1874879219.1257.1251600019
1874862534.5103.375160002
1874861534.536.875160001

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...

I greatly appreciate any help you can give!

Adding Sequential Numbering To A Query

Oct 5, 2005

Hi,

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.

Thanks, j

Queries :: Sequential Numbering Within A Query

Feb 6, 2014

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;

Tables :: Modified Sequential Numbering In A Field

Feb 10, 2015

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.

Modules & VBA :: Sequential Numbering Dcount Dmax Composite Primary Key

Sep 23, 2014

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:

1001 1 1
1001 1 2
1001 1 3
1001 2 1
1001 2 2
1001 3 1, etcetera.

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:

1001 1 1
1001 1 2
1001 1 3
1001 2 2
1001 2 3
1001 3 3, etcetera.

If (DCount("[treatmentnr]", "Tbl_treatment", "[ID] = " & Me.ID & "" & "AND [tumornr] = " & Me.tumornr & "")) = 0 Then Me.treatmentnr = fRowNum(False)
Else Me.treatmentnr = (DMax("[treatmentnr]", "Tbl_treatment", "[ID] = " & Me.ID & "" & "AND [tumornr] = " & Me.tumornr & "")) + 1

Forms :: Text Box Bound To A Field - Change Sequential Numbering

Jul 31, 2013

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.

Forms :: Sequential Numbering Based On Information In Combo Field

Sep 4, 2014

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?

Tables :: Adding 1000 Semi Blank Records With Sequential Numbering

May 21, 2013

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?

Top 10 Within A Few Groups

Jun 27, 2007

I have a query that returns the following values:

Group_Name
Group_Priority
Person_Name
Amt_From
Amt_To
Branch
ID_Number

How can I select from this to get the top 10 'Amt_From' values within each Group_Name, in one query?

I can get the top 10 overall, and I can find the top 10 by specifiying a Group_Name value, but I'm hoping to find all in one query.

Any ideas gratefully received.

Sequential Dates

Jun 2, 2005

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.

Sequential Number

Jan 22, 2007

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!

Thanks,
james

FE / BE Security Groups

Jul 26, 2007

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?

Any encouragement / early warnings appreciated

Calculations On Groups

Apr 17, 2008

tblCountries -- CountryID, Country
tblAthletes -- AthletesID, FirstName, Surname, CountryID, M/F
tblSports -- SportID, Sport
tblEvents -- EventID, Event, VenueID, SportID
tblVenues -- VenueID, Venue, Location
tblMedals -- MedalID, MedalType
tblResults -- ResultID, AthleteID, MedalID, EventID

Primary Keys - Bold
Foreign Keys - Italic

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.

Option Groups

Jan 13, 2006

Hello Everyone.

I have a form that gets its data from a query.

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.

Option Groups

Nov 23, 2004

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.

Hope this makes sense - any help appreciated

Randomize Into Groups

Hello all,

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?

Thanks very much.
