I have a table that has a min & max number however, some entries do not have a maximum its unlimited. is there any solution to show this other than having 9999999999999999999999999999999.

I 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.
Here 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.

I have created a booking system for a set of resources for schools. Most schools have a membership which entitles them to 2 free sets. I have a booking form with a membership subform (membership table), and a booking details subform (kitloan table).
Once a school is selected on the main form, the membership subform shows the most recent record for that school based on schoolID.I want to display the number of sets they have already had within their membership period (can start at any time of the year, and lasts for 1 year) on the membership subform, so we know how many free ones they have left.
I therefore need to count the number of KitBkID (ID of the booking) in the Kitloan table where SchoolID = the SchoolID displayed on the membership subform, and the DateOut (booking date on kitloan table) is between the DateJoined and DateRenewal displayed on the membership subform (from membership table).
I can do this with a query which works when run and provided with the parameters SchoolID, DateJoined, and DateRenewal.
SELECT Count(Kitloan.KitBkID) AS CountOfKitBkID, Kitloan.SchoolID, Kitloan.DateOut
FROM Kitloan INNER JOIN Membership ON Kitloan.SchoolID = Membership.SCHOOLID
GROUP BY Kitloan.SchoolID, Kitloan.DateOut
HAVING (((Kitloan.SchoolID)=[Me].[SCHOOLID]) AND ((Kitloan.DateOut) Between [Me].[DateJoined] And [Me].[DateRenewal]));
What I can't do is get it to run on the form and take those values from the form.From the searching I've done, I'm thinking a DCount should be the way to go, but I cannot get the criteria right. I created a query (KitloanCountQry) so that criteria could come from both the kitloan and membership tables.
SELECT Kitloan.KitBkID, Kitloan.SchoolID, Membership.DateJoined, Membership.SCHOOLID, Kitloan.DateOut
FROM Kitloan INNER JOIN Membership ON Kitloan.SchoolID = Membership.SCHOOLID;
I have put the DCount as the control source for a textbox on the Membership subform (but have tried it in VBA too):
=DCount("KitBkID","KitloanCountQry")
This works but obviously gives me the total for all bookings.

Although I have to admit to getting lost in the syntax. This produces #Error.
I want to query a table in access, and as part of the query return the row number, e.g.
SELECT * FROM Table1
Field1
------
A
B
C
In Oracle, you would get my desired results as follows:
SELECT rownum, field1 FROM table1
Rownum Field1
-------- ------
1 A
2 B
3 C
Any idea how I do this in Access?
Hi
I have a database which picks up information from my accounts package. It has the following fields
ID,Name,Date,Ref1&Ref2
I need to extract the last ID number and store it in a table or somewhere and then extract the above information after that number into a csv file in the order above. It is used for my invoices and therefore when I do an import from my accounts package it updates all the transactions.
An example would be I say put 5 invoices on with a ID nr's of 1, 2, 3, 4 & 5 and output to a csv file. When I run the query/macro? it looks at the table with the last ID nr and starts from 6 and so on
I just need the ones I have done today. It has to be the ID number as each invoice is put on it gives it a sequential number, the dates could be different for each invoice.
I hope I've explained myself:)
Thanks in advance

I have an expression on a Query which calculates the remainning stock number.
The stock number is a field stored in a Table. This is subtracted by the quantity of the orders.
Is it possible to update the stock number in the Table? This number is the remainning number.
And how? Please advise

Hey all,
I'm having a horrible time trying to get this to work. Basically, I have a database which has multiple tables. All of my tables are being generated with a CREATE TABLE statement. What I would like to do is add a validation rule or something else upon creation so that only X number of entries can be entered into the table.
Initially, I just added a rule that said id<5 or whatever manually to the table in order to restrict the number of entries, but I can't figure out how to do this automatically in my SQL statement or Visual basic. I want to be able to have this check added upon table creation. Surely what I'm doing must be possible.
Am I going about it the wrong way? Any Help would be appreciated. Thanks!
I have a table where my primary Key is of a text type, the key is made up of a single letter then a number... ie.
R1
R2
R3
...
R30
R31
..R100
etc.
This is an indefinate table and will go as high as I need to
Unfortunately I can't sort this table because if its mixture of both text and numerical characters, can anyone provide any assistance?
Thanks!
Not to sure if I am doing the table structure correctly as you may come up with an alternative.
I have an [Pre-Order] table, which is linked to an [Order Details], table. A product grp is assigned to each Pre-Order. One Order can have many colours. So what I need is to be able to have an Auto Number generated sequentially depending on what the product grp is.
So for example, I order some shirts, in three colours.
Shirt Product Grp is P
The start of the barcode is 175
Style number is the next section of the barcode which needs to be sequential generated.
so
175 0001
175 0002
etc
Yes this is easy with an AutoNumber, my problem is that my next order could be ties.
Product grp J
The start of the barcode is 145, i need the autonumber to start from 0001
not start from where the previous order ( in this example Shirt above )
so
145 0001
145 0002
do i have to have a separate table for each product grp, ( there are 26 Product grps )
please help, a bit stuck

My boss has a table with tons of fields on it, he designed it this way because it was easier to add data to one place, but now the table keeps crashing, does ms 2k have a limit to the number of fields in a table??
Thanks in advance.
I have run into a problem with an ODBC table connection. The table I am connected to exceeds the number of fields allowed in an Access table. I am using Access 2003. When I looked on Microsoft help site I think the max number of fields in a recordset is 242 so I am unable to see all of the fields in the original table I am linking to. Does anyone know if this limitation has changed in the newest version of Access? I checked the Filemaker www site and that program does not have the same limitations. Thanks in advance for any help!

I have solved a m:n relationship by adding a junction table. The composite primary key in the junction table is made up of primary keys from the other two tables, and both of theses primary keys are set to autonumber.
My question is this: Is it correct to set both parts f the composite key in he junction table to number rather than autonumber?
I was thinking that since autonumber should be set only once, the junction table should just take on what ever value there is in the primary keys of the other two tables.
Kind Regards

Hello there.
Is it better to have many fields in one table or to split the data between a number of tables and link them?
Thanks.

We want to send letters to clients on behalf of our salespeople on a weekly basis from a list of clients in a table. But some salespeople will have 5 letters go out and some will have 20 go out (depending on what amount the salesperson is able to followup on). I can store the weekly letter quantity number in the table no problem, but I am just not sure how to have the query show 5 letters for Bob and 20 letters for Sue.
I know about the "Top N" setting in query design, but not sure how to set it to read from the table.
Any ideas?

I'm sure this should be simple but I can't figure it out. What I want is for a text box on a form to display the number of records within a table.
Basically I've got a make table query which creates a table ox X records depending on how many records in the original table match the criteria. So for example:
Table A has 100 records
Query identifies 30 that mee the criteria
Makes a new table called criteria_met with these 30 records
What I want is for a textbox on a form to display "30" and update whenever the make table query runs (probably via a macro??)
I have a table called tblAccounts and a form called frmEnter_new_accounts. In my frmEnter_New_Accounts form is a Text Box for Account #. I want to have it so that when the user enters an account # it checks the tblAccounts table for a duplicate account # and then displays a message box (or Pop-Up form) to tell the user that the Account Number entered already exists. I would also like that box to offer the user the option to either Close that form without saving or return to the form to reenter a different account #.
I know I would probably do this in the LostFocus event or BeforeUpdate.
Does anyone have any ideas or samle code to assist me in this adventure?
Hi
How can I make the primary key (participant #) in my table equal the record number on the Form? In other words, when I open the form, I need two things to always happen:
1. the primary key must equal the record number (which is displayed on the form)&
2. when I click "Add New Record" button, I want a new customer # automatically generated and in the correct order.
Is this possible? I've been struggling...
