I have a form-subform structure and my aim is to number certain records of the subform. These records would contain value: 1,2,...
And when changing the record on the main form, the subform's record should have the values 1,2,... again.
(These values are shown on the bottom of the subform, where we can step the subform's record.)
If I use an autonumber field, the numbering goes continously.
Hi I obviously have a table with records in it sorted in assending order. What I need is to know how to make it add into one of the table fields the number it is in the table. IE
Name Time Position Number Mr Jones - 12:30 - 1 Mr Evans - 12:45 - 2
So if i added 12:35 it would change mr evans position number to 3 and make the new record position number 2.
Hello, I have a question. I don't really know much about access, but I am really comforatable with SQL (DB2 and MySQL Programmer). Anyways, I was wondering if there is any way to do the following in SQL.
I have a Students Table that holds the names of students, an applications table that holds different applications, and an offers table that holds offers for the different applications.
The relationships for the tables are : One Student Has Many Applications, One Application has Many Offers
IE: One Application can have up to three offers attached to it. I have the following query running to get all of the offers for all students in a specified term:
SELECT DISTINCT Offers.tblStudentProgCodeFK, Names.StudentID, Names.FName, Names.LName, (Offers.Code), tblPrograms.ProgName, Names.[Country Of Birth], Offers.[OCAS Number] FROM qryApplications_Offers AS Offers, [Names], tblPrograms, (SELECT DISTINCT StartingDate, EndingDate FROM StartDates WHERE Term LIKE "*"+[Forms]![frmSelector]![Term]+"*") AS B WHERE (Names.StudentID = Offers.StudentID AND (tblPrograms.ProgCode = Offers.Code OR Offers.Code=0) ) AND (Offers.StartDate BETWEEN B.StartingDate AND B.EndingDate);
What I was wondering is if there is any way to add a field in the output that would number the selections. Right now it returns a table like:
Where the choice column would count the choice for that student. Is this even possible? There is no choice number in the Applications or Offers table so I would need to do this in the query....
I need to add a column to a sorted query which effectively numbers from 1 to N. It is intended as a ranking field for later statistical analysis.
I can do this manually by saving the query as a table, then introducing a new autonumber field.
However, I need to do this automatically, as this is just one query out of many in a large and complex setup. Is it possible to add an autonumber field to a query?
I have a database with numerous nutrient lab values per food item and zero to 20 tests per food item; some 600 food items
I want to select the last 5 tests per food item which should be no problem using the "TOP " type statement.
After I have the "TOP 5" record I would like to create another field to number each record automatically with in the query so I can run a cross tab query to display these records 1 thru 5.
I have a table with 3500 records with following fields : Id_number, Num , Name , Address,.
This table used for store customer data .
My job is print 10 record randomly by customer arrival . I made this by use num field and put number manually, example I put 1 ,2 , 3 .... Till 10 , so for print i made criteria , I put 1 and 10 . Problem is because more and more customer is coming , I got confuse to put number manually . are there any way to get it automatic ?
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?
In my simple database (attached), I need to mass duplicate Tasks and their Notes.
I have three tables: tbTasks (PK: Task_ID), tbNotes (PK: Note_ID), jtbTaskNotes (FKs: Task_ID and Note_ID). jtbTaskNotes is my many-to-many junction table that ties Tasks to Notes.
The main form (fmTasks), bound to tbTasks, has a subform (sbfm_TaskNotes) that displays notes associated with each Task. On themain form,you select which Tasks you want duplicated via a checkbox. The append query (quCopyTasks) will duplicate all tasks that have the checkbox checked. All good there. However, I can't figure out how to also duplicate each task's Notes.
I found Allen Browne's solution [URL] ....., but that only handles duplication of one record at a time, whereas I need to duplicate many records at a time (sometimes 10+ records). How do I go about duplicating multiple Tasks and their associated Notes?
Before you ask "why are you duplicating records?": There are times when tasks need to be re-accomplished and therefore need to have a new record. It's easier to duplicate records than it is to hand-jam everything again.
I have one main table containing most data, that table stores data which is identifies by a unique ID (currently 1-96000), there is also an issue number, I need another numbering system per issue (so you could have issue 166, record 26), any ideas?
I want to distribute certain materials (found in a query) to several warehouse locations in a sequential order.
So the first found material needs to be put in warehouse location 001, the second found material needs to be put in warehouse location 002, etc.
How can I number the lines in a query?
I don’t want to run a create-table-query with an auto number field because the warehouse locations are limited and every time the query runs the numbering has to start at 001.
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?
We have a part numbering system that is currently like this, 11Y22 where 22 increments by one until it gets to 99 where it then goes back to 0, once it goes to 0 the letter increments to Z in this case, now once the last three characters get to Z99, then the 11 gets incremented eg, 11Z99 will become 12A00. Hope that is clear :)
My question is, can this system be implemented into the auto numbering in Access?:confused:
Hi there I'm sure that this must be easy, so go gently on an old codger! I have a query for which I wish to add another field containing a running total of the number of records produced by the query (after all sorting etc.).
In other words, if my query produces n records, that new field would contain the value 1 in the first record, 2 in the next and so on to n.
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 would like to create an expression that would number each item in sequential order in a query . I cannot use autonumber on the table because I am pulling it from SQL and do not have clearance to change the actual tables. I have been searching through this forum for the last 2 hours and have not come across anything similar to this, so I hope I'm not covering a topic that has already been covered.
Hi I am a newbie on here!!!!! Anyways, now that I got that out of the way.... I need help on my Access Database. Hopefully this isn't a stupid question..... I would like to have one of my cells in my form to automatically count from 1000-9999 when I go to the next form. when it hits 9999, I need it to start over, but not delete any of the previous entries that I have in there. Anyone willing to help me out?
Greatly Appreciated, I am sure I will have more questions!!!
I have a report that produces invoices and gets its data from a multi-table based query. The query has multiple lines for each customer and the report groups and totals them. How can I have the invoices numbered sequentially? Any help please?
