Split Receipt Number

Apr 28, 2006

I have a DB with a field named "rec #"
That receipt number is made up of a date,a letter, a 4 digit number and a 3 digit number.
That receipt number might look something like this
01012006P0002001

01012006 date
P letter
0002 4 digit number
001 3 digit number

What I want to do is to split this receipt number into the individual parts and create a field for each part.
Can someone help me ?

Thanks

Receipt Numbers

Oct 16, 2006

Soon I'll be starting a new DB which will be used to issue receipts to people who attend courses run by a business. I don't want or need it to be very complicated so was thinking a something like the following;
TblClient (ID,client name & address fields)
TblCourse (ID,Date, course name & Price fields)

Each client will eventually have numerous (many) Course records because they often complete more than one course, over many years.
When I issue clients with Receipts I want each receipt to have a unique receipt number.
On each receipt I will need the Client name, Price paid, date(s) & course name(s) with the unique receipt number. How can I impliment the receipt number?

Receipt Printing Issue

Apr 25, 2007

Special Printer Control Characters

I have created POS application for my business that uses an Epson TM-U220 Series (Type B) receipt printer with tear off. I have formatted a report from my Access db as a receipt, but I need to send the hex string "1B69" in order to activate the paper cutter after the report prints.

How do I do that?

And when I give the print out some unknown characters keep on coming continuously which I had to switch off the printer to abort printing. What do you think is the reason. Is it something to do with the font size?

Please help me......... Im in real trouble

Modules & VBA :: Determining Number Of Users Of Split Database

Nov 1, 2013

We have a database that is split. Every user has their own front end (installed via a .bat file so that the users always have a local copy of the most recent version), linked to a shared back end on a server. This seems stable and functional for us so far.

However, because our users are geographically separated, I don't actually know how many folks are using the database. I know the folks who contact me, but everyone in our company could use it if they wanted to.

For requesting funding, guiding future development, etc., I need to get some metrics:

Total number of unique users
Avg uses per day

Total number of simultaneous users (daily, weekly, and monthly maxes and mins)

What is the best way to get this info? Write user info and a timestamp to a table each time a front end is launched? Are there tools for monitoring this sort of information?

General :: Split Database - Inconsistent Number Of Records

Nov 8, 2012

I have split the database, with the back-end residing on the server. Only 1 other person is working in Access right now; she's verifying the data. Today she's working directly in the back-end, could this be the problem. If it is, I'm going to have to create a front-end for her quickly.

My problem is this...I'm working on queries and forms so that the scientists who will ultimately be using this application, won't be able to go in and inadvertently change something in the tables set-up. When I'm in the back-end main data table, it says I have 2723 records.

When I create a front-end query to query all the records in that table, it says I have 2160 records.

The input form that I created with most of the same fields as the query (created BEFORE I created the query...I'll have it pull from the query now instead of directly from the table) also says we only have 2160 records.

Modules & VBA :: Trying To Split A Dashed Number Into Multiple Columns

Jul 22, 2013

I am trying to split a number sequence (Ex. 25372-400-E10-0000-D0021) Where the third number in the sequence can be either 2 or 3 numbers/letters.

The idea is to have a query that will split this number into its individual parts. I have seen several forums about splitting two numbers and such but I can't seem to make that work when I need to create 5 columns from this one field.

Forms :: Auto Generate File Number Based On Number Of Records In Year

Jan 21, 2014

I 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.

Tables :: Consecutively Number Table Rows With User Determined Start Number

Jul 13, 2014

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.

Number Fields In Text To Number Field, Formula For Fiscal Year

Nov 26, 2004

Date of Birth (DOB) field etc. in one program are text - how do I make another file with the same data into number fields for Date of Birth field etc? When I copy data to file that has number fields the 09252004 is changed to 9252004. Can I get reports with the correct Date of Birth in them by moving data from text file to number file?

There is data entered monthly in file and formula has been set up for January, February etc as ---quarter: Int(([month]-1)/3)+1. I would like formula for the fiscal year for April to be counted as month 1, May - month 2, June as month 3, July as month 4, August as month 5, Sept as month 6, October as month 7, Nov as month 8, Dec as month 9, Jan as month 10, Feb as month 11 and March as month 12.

Thank you

Reports :: Generate Number Of Rows In Report Depending On Number In Another Field

Nov 4, 2013

I have a form where we fill in information for supply of equipment to employees.

Each item must be signed for on a printed report.

I am encountering problems trying to create enough rows in my report detail for each signature of the items supplied.

For example, on the form I will select the "equipment" - 4 hats supplied and 3 boots. On the report I want the equipment set as the group and the detail to be a number or rows which equals the number of selected items. therefore under the Hats group heading I want 4 blank rows which are made up of 3 text boxes - Print Name, Signature & Date and another group heading for boots but with 3 lines.

Auto Increasing A Number, Depending On Maximum Number When Condition Is Met

Sep 18, 2006

Hi,

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, 2006

Well, 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 ?

Report Prints The Same Number Of Times As The Number Of Records

Jul 10, 2006

I've created a report and report has the same number of pages as the number of records that it's displaying.

If there are two records, the report has 4 pages...the first 2 are the actual report and then the other 2 are a copy. If there are 3 records, the report would have 3 copies (...6 pages).

Any idea how to change this so that I have only one copy of the report?

General :: Auto Number PK Change Starting Number?

Dec 18, 2013

I 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.)

Auto Sequence Number For Reference Number

Dec 8, 2005

The 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.

Gary
