Jul 26, 2014I need some kind of function (I been told) that generates 3 different alphanumeric autonumbers in the same field when adding a new record, starting such field from A-1, B-1 and C-1 to infinite.Because the record gets inserted in the table with an append query and not manually through a form, I believe the function should be placed in the Default Value setting of the field.

Mar 24, 2014I need the auto number to be in specified format as ASI-23-0001. So I added the format "ASI-23-"0000 in the formats and I got it succesfully.The fueld name is "Part Number"
I have added the Part Number field to a form as combo and I was able to list the values in the drop down combo.
I wanted to use Dlookup command in the program to auto fill the next field in the form say "Description".
I am using the following code
Me.Text30 = DLookup("[Description]", "item_master", "[Part Number] = Form![Combo36]")
But now the data in the combo is treated as text because of the prefix "ASI-23" and I get data type mismatch error.

Tables :: Format Control On Auto Numbers
Jul 4, 2014I would like to expand on this questions. I would like to generate a number based on a reference I use, a format like "14/000" where I use "14" with the last 2 digits of the year. However i want the auto number to generate the the last 2 digit automatically when the year changes i.e. when 2015 comes the field generates "15/000" without any prompt from the user.
View 1 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Auto Generate ID Where Field Is Text Format
Jul 10, 2012I have
Table called "Products"
Field 1= "Product ID" which is a text field (PK) but numbers are used (ie 1 -20)
Field 2= Products -showing our list of 20 products
When I enter a new product, currently I have to look in the table to find the last ID used then use the next one available. I have created a form to be used for data entry to enter new products
What I am trying to do is :- 1, have the form open at data entry level but still able to scroll and see all records and 2, Have the form auto generate the next number available. For example, I have 20 products entered so when the form opens to enter a new product, the ID is automatically at number 21. I know absol nothing about coding. I have looked at other suggestions on the forum incl the DMAX +1 and having tried and not worked, I wondered if its because the field is a text field or I am trying to insert the code in the wrong place.
Tables :: Corrupted Auto Number
Feb 17, 2015As part of a larger multi-user system there is a time recording part with a simple table called tblTime with an autonumber field. Today at 11:45 users started reporting receiving a 3022 error. On looking at the table I noticed that if I tried to manually add a record then the ID field number inserted automatically was not the next number in sequence, but one that already existed, hence the error.

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.

Tables :: Why Auto-number Is Not Incrementally Increasing
Jul 20, 2014Using Access 2007..I have a table where the RecordID is an autonumber, and PK.To set this table up I have a load routine, (becuase I have done this multiple times for testing and further deveopment and I compact and repair the DB prior to loading) - the 690 records are correct numerically and autonumbered.This table has transactional data where existing records are updated and new records are appended.
I found the autonumber was not incrementally increasing - so no reseed the auto number (using ALTER TABLE 3IWSPLans ALTER COLUMN RecordID COUNTER (1000,1)) prior to starting the transactions.
New transactions will append correctly, up untill I amend a existing record (using a delete and append query via a staging table) - then the autonumber tries to reuse a number already in the table and because its not unique it errors.why the auto-number is not incrementally increasing correctly

Tables :: Text As Primary Key Vs Auto Number
Jun 19, 2013When I first was making my database I used all auto numbers for PK's. But then I read an article or two saying that you really don't need to do that if you don't have to (actually, the article said "don't use autonumber if you want anyone to understand your database). I have a few tables (most employee experience type tables) where I just use the word as the PK and there is no auto number in the table at all.I continue to build my database?

Tables :: Create Auto-generated Serial Number By Batch
Jul 16, 2013I am trying to construct a system in access where I can have a user type in a part number, revision of a part, job number, serial number quantity, and generate a serial number based on the quantity that they need.
I am getting hung up on even how to construct the tables effectively to accomplish this, let alone the forms, queries, etc.
The numbers have to be in the following form. XXXX-XXXX
For an example:
I have part ABC and I need 5 serial numbers.
I need to be able to create a batch of serial numbers automagically that reads like:
9001-0001
9001-0002
9001-0003
9001-0004
9001-0005
Then for the next part XYZ I need 3 serial numbers. It would be constructed like this:
9002-0001
9002-0002
9002-0003
With the goal of eventually being able to search a part number and revision, or a job number and return all serial numbers assigned to that.
Is this possible in MS Access?
Link All Tables By Special Number Will Info Auto-populate?
Aug 20, 2013I have a few questions about tables and forms joining, and auto-population of data.
If I join all 8 of my tables one to one to one to one to one, is that possible? That is my first question.
Secondly: If I have my RSN number that I'm using to track each record, is it possible that if I type in the number on a different form, and two of the fields are similar on every form that they will auto populate since the tables are joined?
And if they're filled out in one form, they should know that these were the fields we said were attached to this number it'll just appear? Is that a real thing?
Auto Number Field Problems
Jan 25, 2006Hi guys,
Just a quick one ( I think )
I have a table which already has an autonumber ( the id field )
But I need to create another field also with an auto generated number which will generate reference number which i need to start at a pre-defined number.
The problem is, im not allowed to use 2 auto number fields, and access is prompting me to use a number field instead.
The question is, is there a way around this ?
Can i create another field which works the same way as an auto number and increments the number by 1 for each new record entered ?
Many thanks in advance for any help.
Max
