I need to automatically generate a 5-character value for my Business Key. Without any user interaction.
2 character -> from 01,02,03,04 to 05
+
3 character -> Sequential Number (001,002,003).
The Sequential Number must reset on each new day.
Is it possible to create a button that automatically saves a report as .pdf? And automatically generates the filename.
Like 0810-544 (0810 is the date and 544 is the ID from the form.)
Hi -
Suppose I have a generic query that returns a group of records.
Is there some way to generate a field containing the number sequence of each record? E.g. if there are 10 records, generate the numbers 1 through 10?
Must be a simple way to do this, I'm just a bit dense today...
Thanks,

I have 3 fields on a form PU_POINTS, SU_POINTS & 2_MILE_RUN_POINTS. The user enters a number 1-100 in each of these fields. If the user enters a number in any of the 3 fields of anything less than 60 then I want it to check a fail box. If the user enters all numbers 60 or more then i want it to check a pass box.

I've created a database that keeps track of everyone's finances, and gives us all the reports we need. The only thing I have not been able to do is to actually print the checks.
I have a report that pulls up the data (in check format ... including making $1.00 say one dollar and 00/100). But I'm stuck trying to give the checks a check number. I can't figure out how to pick a number to start with, and then add numbers sequentially.
Hello, I have no idea what to search for to see if someone else has already asked this question. I've tried several things with no luck. So here goes...
I work in a library. We deal with thousands of journal subscriptions--we cancel our subscriptions and order new journals all of the time. Every paper journal we have is assigned a unique number, called a ZP number. When we throw out a journal, that ZP number can be assigned to a new journal.
I would like to find the earliest missing number in the sequence without having to check manually. Is there a way I can do a query or something to find missing numbers in the sequence? The ZP numbers start with 1 and go up to 9999.
So, I have two fields: Title and ZP#.
How can I do this?
This is a cloned table, used solely for assigning ZP#'s, so it can be altered in any way--including adding records with blank titles for each missing number.
Thanks,

Hi
I've searched the forum and only found one thread which covers this but doesn't help me.
I have a table with peoples individual information in it.
Every person has a unique ID number.
I want to find the missing ID numbers when I delete a person so I can keep the numbers in sequence.
I am not using autonumber. The reason for this is coloured wristbands. Each wristband has a unique number and they are broken into 4 colours. each colour has a number range 1 - 300, 301 - 600, 601 - 900, 901 - 1200. Each person in the table has to have an ID number matching a wristband. The people are also broken into 4 colour categories. This means that not every range is filled before i need to start using the next range.
Hope that makes sense.

I have a query where I use the Month function to get the month number of funded loans. So for example if a loan funded 06/01/07, my field would display 6. I have this for the whole year of 2006 giving me values of 1-12. I have put in the criteria <=[What Month?] for my month field so that the query will prompt me for the month value I want and give me that plus any month previous. The problem is that when I put in 12 for the criteria, it only returns 1, 10, 11 ,12. It is grouping/sorting the values based on the first character. So any value that starts with 1 is automatically less than any value starting with 2.
How do I fix this?
I just want to get like if i have criteria like ;
Excellent
Good
Fair
Poor
Then what i need that in table if i select excellent then in query it should display 5, same if select good then 4, then fair 3 and so on..
I have a report that prints blank serialized forms and I basically need a query to generate a field where if I request 4 sheets to be printed the list generated would look like this:
ClaimNo
1
2
3
4
It seems like this would be simple, but I'm a noob.

Hi All,
I'm designing this database, in which, I have to give each record a unique random (or sequance) number of 5 digits, giving that the first digit must be retrived from another field.
Please Help, I need this ASAP!
Any help will be very much appreciated!
Thanks,
CS.
what do I do so that when I type into a field the first character becomes an Upper case automatically.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi There
Looking to see if there is an easy solution to this problem I have.
I have a table which holds order information, the primary key for this table is orderID which is an autonumber.
The field in question is order number, which has a default value of "JJO"00000, which I have started manually at JJO10001, is there anyway i can get my database to automatically increment this number to save me from keep checking the last order number produced.
Lost count of the number of times I have gave the same order number to numerous customers.
Thanks

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a range say 12.03 to 13.11.
I need to generate all numbers falling within this range with 0.01 increment.
(This increment is based on the numbers; if the numbers have 2 decimals, it should be 0.01. If the numbers have 3 decimals, the increment should be 0.001. Both the numbers will have the same number of decimals)
The answer is: 12.03, 12.04, 12.05, etc. etc. till 13.10, 13.11.
Is there a way we can do it in MS Access ?
I have a field that contains 12 numbers. I need to replace the middle four numbers with a character so that the entire number is not readable. How do I do that?
View 14 Replies View RelatedBasically what I have is a database for tracking/logging parcels that arrive to the office. I want to be able to generate a reference number based on the date of arrival: i.e. the reference number should be ddmmyy### where ### is a sequential number. I know that I could just use the primary key's autonumber, for the sequential number but if I do this then the sequence will not restart at 1 on each date and because we receive a lot of parcels the reference number will grow to be too big to print out on the collection slips in just a few months.
two tables (one with the date and staff on duty that day and the other with the parcel's info') with a one to many relationship
I also have a query (Named: FullLog) that picks up the following data from the tables:
Name - Description - Size - TrackingInfo' - Staff - DateReceived - Count
The field named Count is a DCount function that I used to find out the number of times each date is repeated. This is the Expression that I used:
Count: DCount("*","FullLog","DateReceived = " & [DateReceived]) [Note that DateReceived is first converted into a string using CStr()]
This is as far as I have been able to get, I have been looking for weeks for a solution to this problem but I have yet to find one. I don't even know if the DCount function is the correct way of doing it, I did read somewhere that this produces a very slow query.
Effectively what I want to be able to get is something of that resembles the following
DateReceived - ReferenceNo
051013 051013001
051013 051013002
051013 051013003

StrTime = Time()

I have 2 fields that I would like to automate if possible
One field is called "p/o number" and another field called "line no"
These fields are part of an ordering database
Let say I have 200 items to purchase form 10 suppliers
And form example 20 items from each supplier
What I do at present is put the order number on each line item and the line number
example
p/o number line no
1 1
1 2
1 3
2 1
2 2
2 3
2 4
What I want to do is just put the first po number in the required line . Put the first line number in i.e. "1" and the macro will complete all the p/o numbers and line numbers for me as per the ones marked in red.
Example
1 1
2 2
3 3
2 1

I am writing a deposit recording database for archaeological layers. My units are recorded in one table, and then the relationships are recorded in a separate table. I have limited the recording of relationships to be either "same_as" or "below".
So in tblContexts is have say: 1,2,3,4,5,6
in tblcontextrels I have say : 2 is below 1; 3 is below 1; 4 is below 3; 1 is below 5; 6 is the same as 5
I want to view the deposits on screen in their stratigraphic sequence. So I think I need to write a piece of code to run through "tblContextrels" which will then create a hierarchy attribute. This attribute can then be used to sequence the context deposits I am looking at.

If string 2 = string1 then
Sequence1 = 0
Second record has two conditions
Number sequence2 with the value 2 or 3 depending on the line one
If string 2 = string1 then

Same condition for the rest of records
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.
