Forms :: How To Get Auto Serial Number To Start From 1
Apr 7, 2014I am working in ms access database form. I have a form with detail section. In detail section i would like to make sr.no field auto increase each time new quotation is created. Using AutoNumber didn't work because because it doesn't start the serial number from 1 for each new quotation.

Tables :: Consecutively Number Table Rows With User Determined Start Number
Jul 13, 2014I have an Access2007/SQL Server 2012 system with 20 users for an insurance company. The company does most of its business via a network of vehicle dealers around the country. If someone comes in to buy a motorcycle, boat, or recreational vehicle at a dealership they need insurance to take it home, and our dealers send the quotes to us.
The dealers, in turn, receive payment from us each month for their efforts. Some are paid a % commission on the premium, some are paid for each quote they send regardless of whether the policy actually sells or not, and some are paid a set amount per sold policy. (Yes, that is relevant information!)
We already have reports that tally the amounts due each dealer based on their payment scheme, but last month our bookkeeper had to write about 650 checks manually because the check writing is not automated. She'd look at the report, and then enter name, address, and amount (in digits and words) into Quick Books and print the checks from there, a horribly tedious process. I've been asked to print the checks from Access. Basically one click would print all 650 checks.
I've opted to use a Make Table query to move the commissioned dealers amounts to a single location, and then to run two append queries to add the records from those paid per quote and those paid per policy. At the end of the day, one table contains all the information necessary to print the checks...except one.
The check number.
I need a way to sequentially number each record in the new table with a user generated starting point, the first check number.
By the way, the check blanks are on standard letter sized paper, three to a page, with tear-off perforations to separate them, in case that information has any relevance.
I think the best way to accomplish this is from the report itself. I've created a blank field on each record for the check number, and what seems most logical is that the sequential number is generated on print and written back to the table, rather than just generating all the numbers at once. That way, should print ever be interrupted, it will be easy to take up where we left off.
Appending Records With A Desired Auto Number In A Table With Auto Number
Oct 26, 2005Here is my issue. In a table with an Auto Number index some records have been deleted. I have been able to recreate them along with their original auto number. The problem is that I do not know how to append these records forcing the original auto number. I have tried changing the auto number field to a number field in the table, this works except I cannot change it back to auto number.
I am sure I’m not the first with this question or issue. I did search through a couple hundred entries about auto number before I posted this question.

Number Field Adding Bogus Data Beyond Decimal Point
Jan 6, 2008I have a field for Item Price.
It would be a currency field, but I want it to be able to work with up to 6 decimal places. currency only seems to handle 4.
So, in the table, i changed it to a Single.
In the form, I left the control on Currency.
If I type in $1.43, instead of storing $1.43000000 it stores $1.43003243953
Why is it adding all these bogus sub decimal numbers? Any clue?
Thank you,
Evan

Determine Start/end Day For A Week Number
Apr 24, 2008I am trying to avoid the creation of a lookup table where I know I should be able to calculate this. I need to determine the start and end date of a week number. I did find this post from 2002: http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=33116&highlight=start+end+dates+week but it doesn't seem to work.
What I am trying to do is show all projects that were opened at the start of a week number. For example, week 2 is from 1/7/2008 and ends on 1/13/2008 (provided that your week starts in the week that 1/1 occurs and that your week starts on Monday). I need this start date so I can show all projects that started on or before 1/7/2008 and were in an open status.
If I can't calculate this then I will have to create a table and relate the query to it.
|Week Number | Start Date | End Date |

Ex: i enter a record and autonumber for it is 1. I deleted this record and entered a new record, but i found autonumber is 2. I want the number is 1,
Why is it happen? any solution ? help me pls...

General :: Calculating Number Of Weeks Between Start And Finish Date
Jun 9, 2015I am calculating number of weeks between start and finish date. Some of the users have questioned the validity of calculation as they are not too sure if this is being calculated as Monday to Friday week or does it work by calculating 7 days. If the latter is true, then I should see a decimal value. I am using date diff formula.
View 12 Replies View RelatedForms :: Auto Generate File Number Based On Number Of Records In Year
Jan 21, 2014I have a form [IUDATA]
I have a add record button.
I have a date field [DATEIN]
I have a text field [DRPNO]
If the [DPRNO] field is empty, I would like the user to have the [DPRNO] field be automatically populated after the user enters a date.
I'd like the format of [DPRNO] to be "dpr YY-XXX"
Where:
YY is the year of the [DATEIN] field and
XXX is number of records in that year.
So for example, if it was the 4th record with a 2013 date the [DPRNO] would be dpr 13-004.

View 8 Replies View RelatedAuto Increasing A Number, Depending On Maximum Number When Condition Is Met
Sep 18, 2006Hi,
I'm trying to get the maximum number in a table field to increase it by one depending on the member that is selected in a drop down in a field.
I have three tables: members, programs and times. Each member can have N programs and each program can be broadcast N times.
Each member has a three digit code, like XXX. Each program has the three digit code of the member + three numbers that are supposed to auto increment. That is, the first program of member X with the member code XXX is called XXX001.
What I'm trying to do is that when a new program is filled in and I select the member, then the program code should update automatically, adding one to the latest program by that member.
That is, if the last program by member X that was inserted in the database is XXX010, then if a new program is inserted it should automatically be XXX011, even though programs by other members have been added in between.
This is the code I use now, for the AfterUpdate when selecting the member in a dropdown in the form. But although I've played around a bit, I just get error messages...
Private Sub medlemsruta_AfterUpdate()
Dim medlemskod
medlemskod = Me![medlemsruta].Column(2)
Dim strMax As String
strMax = DMax("programs_kod", "table_programs", "Left$(programs_kod, 3) = medlemskod")
Me!program_kod = Left$(strMax, 3) & Format$(Val(Right$(strMax, 3)) + 1, "000")
End Sub
Medlemsruta is a dropdown where one selects the member from the members table, where the three digit code is in the third column (Column(2)).
I'm trying to use DMax to get the maximum number for the particular member and after that adding 1 to that for the new program code.
Grateful for any advice! Thanks!

Query That Result Incremental Number, With No Auto-Number
Sep 10, 2006Well, here's my database :
Name : String
Address : String
I want to add an automatically generated column, "no.", to show which number it's in. Like this :
No. Name Address
1. A Unknown
2. B Unknown2
The problem is, I can do that with Auto-Number, but if the user delete row 1, the number in row 2 is still 2, not 1.
Is it possible to generate query that have "no." column in it ?
General :: Auto Number PK Change Starting Number?
Dec 18, 2013I have a table with an auto number PK. This table will contain orders. I'd like to use the PK from this table as the Invoice number on the invoice. I'd like to have it start at a number other than "1" just because it looks better on an invoice. I don't know how to do this. I looked at the table design to see if there were options available to me there but couldn't find anything. Is it possible? (I do not know how to use code.)
View 7 Replies View RelatedAuto Sequence Number For Reference Number
Dec 8, 2005The title probably doesn't give an idea of what I need, so here goes.
We currently have reference #'s for our bills that include the date requested in mmddyy format, the first 3 letters of the customer, the initials of the order taker and finally a sequential number to show the sumber of bills that day.
example: 120705SEAGMM02 2nd order taken by GMM for Seagate on 12/7
120705SEARLH01 1st order taken by RLH for Seagate on 12/7
I want to generate this number automatically based on the date entered and the initials given of the user. We only deal with one customer at our desk so that will always be "SEA".
I have a query that generates the first portion (date, customer, and initials):
SELECT Format([REQDATE],"mm") AS [Month], Format([REQDATE],"dd") AS [Day], Format([REQDATE],"yy") AS [Year], Format([REQDATE],"mmddyy") AS [Both], [Both] & "SEA" & [PickUpReqData]![INITIALS] AS REFNO
FROM PickUpReqData;
But I can't seem to get my head around the part of generating the number. I know I had done this in a database I created 2 jobs ago but all my files were flooded out in Katrina. (I have since relocated to Atlanta, although I'm not looking for sympathy. But I will take what I can get!)
Anything to point me in the right direction will be appreciated. I am looking to have this on a form and feed the REFNO field in the PickUpReqData table.
Thanks.

Creating A Serial Number That Is NOT Auto-number
Mar 20, 2012I have a table called "OrderDetails" with following fields:
Num
OrderID (Primary key)
Product
Quantity
Price
I want to create a data entry subform that can used to enter order details in this table such that, for a given OrderID, the Num field is automatically set to previous number + 1. For example, for OrderID = 12, if there are 4 products that need to be entered, the 4 records should automatically take 1 , 2, 3, 4.

When looking at the database properties (Specifically - "Statistics") there is a "Revision Number", which is always blank.

Jul 25, 2005Hi, I have a form with some fields on it, there is one called Pro Number. what I would like to happen is when a new record is created, it starts at a certain number and continues to increment by one. In other words, the first record would be 5600 and the next new record would be 5601 etc.
I did have this working in an previous database, by creating a append query to start the number, but that does not seem to be working now...
Any help would be very much apprecited.

Auto Number
Dec 29, 2005I make a data base every year for work orders that my work does for our customers, I have every thing set up and it looks great except for one field, last year I was able to make it do an auto number once I put the date in. for example first box work Order # ___ second box date once I put in the date an work order # would fill in the w/o# box and it would follow what ever the last work order # was (12600). for example I need the year 2006 TO START OFF WITH # 12601, What querie/option do I need to accomplish with this info.

but any way I have the form made looks exactly like the previous years but I can not get the work order box to become an auto number and I need it to tart of at 12601 and I had it so that when I put in the date the next work order # would pop in the box, and I need to get all the hours and part totals to add up.
