Reset Record Number
Mar 7, 2007
I have a cumlative DB that exports a file daily based on what was keyed daily..
Therfore, every day I am sending only new records from the DB to a vendor.
I was using autonumber to assign the record number but they now want the record number to restart at 1 for a new days worth of data entry.
So today's file may have record number 1-10 (10 recs) and tomorrow's file would have 11-20 populated om the record number field.
My new record number would have to be 1-10 today and 1-10 tomorrow etc..
Not sure how to do this easily.
thanks!!!

I am currently working on a db to handle our FMLA time. I keep a continous form that totals the time used and subtracts that from the starting amount. One year after the time is used their total should grow. I am looking for some code that will not calculate any record that has a date beyond one year from the current date.

I have a table which will be completely emptied and refilled. The table has a field autonumbered it is also the primary key. When the table is refilled I want this field to start from 1. How can I do that. Yes some people will say this subject has been discussed search for it. But here the issue is somewhat different we have an existing field and I do not want to compact the database each time the procedure runs.

I have two tables - one with parent Records, the other with child records. The ID links the two tables .I want to add a sequence number on the child table which resets at each ID change. What would be the best way to accomplish this?
Code:
PC_ID ID Name Address
P 1 Parent1 Address1
P 2 Parent2 Address1
PC_ID ID Name Address SEQ
C 1 Child1 Address1 1
C 1 Child2 Address1 2
C 1 Child3 Address1 3
C 1 Child3 Address1 4
C 2 Child1 Address1 1
C 2 Child2 Address1 2
C 2 Child3 Address1 3

I have a BE database that we have been using for over a year. I imported data from an external database into this database. Now I've found that my Autonumber has reset to a very low number -- that was imported from my external database. Is there a way to change this autonumber BACK to what it was and increment up? The lowest autonumber in this database is 275944, so I don't have to worry about duplicates in the near future. I would like it reset to 457230, or at least higher than that number.

So I have decided that I want my ID's to be AutoNumbers, but at the moment they are currently set as Numbers. I have already inserted data, to test, which has been deleted, however I am now unable to change the ID field back to AutoNumber.
How can I duplicate the tables so that this field can be changed again?
I have like 10 tables with heaps of feild, so remaking them will take long, but I know there is a way using queries, I am just not sure how...

We need to reset the autonumber after the last record is deleted.
For example:
2006
2007
2008
if 2008 gets deleted, we want the autonumber to reset back to 2008 rather than move to 2009.
Is this possible? This is the code we are using but cannot get the string to recognize the variable. If the variable is replaced with a number, it works, but it defeats the purpose of adding the plus 1 to the last autonumber.
Code:
Private Sub Command0_Click()
Dim RLMax As Integer
Dim Statement As String
RLMax = DMax("[id]", "Table1")
RLMax = RLMax + 1
strSQL = "Alter table table1 Alter Column Id Autoincrement(RLMax,1)"
DoCmd.RunSQL strSQL
End Sub
I realize we don't want to depend on the autonumber for anything other than a row identifier, but the table is setup that it is important for the rows to be sequential if the last record is deleted. Only if the last record is deleted.

I have a Microsoft Access database with SQL Server backend with 10000 records in my table, I have a autonumber field and in my database the purpose of the autonumber field is just to keep the record sequence (not to treat as a unique identifier) and I don't want to use a number field to manually enter the sequence. Whenever the record is deleted or the user won't save the record, it put gaps in the record sequence, Is there any way to refresh the autonumbers automatically "After delete confirm" event or "After Insert/update" even.

Is there anyway to reset a query or macro when you open a new record? My database seems to be holding on to data from the previous record. The data is gained from two queries and one macro.

create a macro that automatically fills in the next invoice number in sequence",,I'm assuming this macro would look at the value of the previous record and add a one to itI don't want to use a AutoNumber field as I might need
(a) to modify value or
(b) need to skip numbers.

Is there any way that I can set the default value of a text box on a form to be what its record number is for that specific form? Basically I want the default value to be the number that shows on the bottom of the form in the navigation section. Thanks for the help.

Rather than using the 'Navigation' offered by MS Access I would like to have 2 text boxes, one that shows the total number of records in a recordset (DCOUNT works here) and one that shows the number of the current record, incrementing or decrementing as I click on the 'Next' and 'Previous' command buttons.
Does anyone know if there is there a function that does this?
Thanks ...

I have a table, tblEvents, which I use to store information about a meeting, training session or field trip, including the [StartDate]. I also have a table, tblEventDays, which I use to store the [DayNumber] 1, 2, 3... At the moment I have to enter the day numbers in the subform frmEventDays manually, but I would like to add button controls to increase/decrease the number of days for each event (i.e. add a new record where [DayNumber] is incremented by 1, and delete the last record if I have added too many day records).
I have added button controls to my EventDays subform and managed to use the macro builder to select and duplicate the last [DayNumber] record, but cannot figure out how to increase each successive [DayNumber] by 1.
1. Add a day...
Option Compare Database
Private Sub AddDay_Click()
?
End Sub
2. Remove a day...
Option Compare Database
Private Sub RemoveLastDay_Click()
?
End Sub

I need to track employee training hours and employee backfill hours. I will need to see which employee was training, and the employee who filled in for him. Both will have the same info. Is there a way to use two tables on one form, and keep the record number the same in each table? I would need to be able to match the data in table 1 to the data in table 2 by record number.
I thought about one giant table, but I think it may get really confusing. Any ideas?

HeyI'm trying to create a Library database. This involves restricting the number of loans available to each member (currently 3). I need to make it so no more than 3 records exist in that table for each member. For now ive just entered a VB script that has a message box saying not to enter more than 3 loans per person but I dont think thatll be enough, I need some sort of validation for the whole table rather than a field.I know how to limit the returns of sql queries which is all I can find, but not how to limit the actual amount of entries. The loan table is part of a double query within a subform of the member form if it helps :s

I ran into a weird task, sometimes at my job we have to use 3 identicle records where just one thing changes and that is the date. The thing that is giving me a problem is I get an error if I try to duplicate the record due to primary key being duplicated. I have a ID field which gives all records a number and when I try to duplicate the record I am in, I get an error because of the duplication of the ID Field. Is there a way to get around this?
