How I can create a sequential number in a field that looks like this:
Year-XXX-00
(Example: 15-100-00 -- the next sequential number would be 15-101-00)
I don't want to hard code the year, and the last 2 numbers must be entered manually.
It gets even more exciting --> this number has to be able to be duplicated in a table. Those last 2 numbers is a revision number. We might have a 15-100-00, 15-100-01, 15-100-02, etc.
I have a query that groups the data by customer. How can I create a "Transaction Number" field where I assign a sequential number to each invoice, starting at 1 with the oldest invoice and increasing the sequential number by 1 with each invoice. I need to create this field in a query without code.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'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?
One of my forms has a text box which is bound to a field called teenumber. This form is set up that "on current" has code
If Me.teenumber = 0 Or IsNull(Me.teenumber) Then
Me.teenumber = Nz(DMax("teenumber", "tblteeofftimesshotgun"), 0) + 1
This enables the text box teenumber to be auto filled with sequential numbers growing by 1 for each record. This database is for a golf tournament and this form enables user to set up tee times for shotgun start for the players.
When the user gets to tee number 18 or whatever the last hole on the course is the teenumber field needs to be reset to 1. With the above code I a unable to do this.
Creating a form against a table with the following fields
EC
Project
Originator
Title
Full description
Effectivity
Etc....
Easy enough to create the Project combo box, problem comes with trying to systematically assign the next EC number.
When I select a Project from a combo box I want an EC assigned with format ECXXXX-### where XXXX is the project number from the combo box and ### is a sequential number. ECs should start at -001 for all projects.
Do I need to add an EC suffix field to hold just the ###? Then what?
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?
Grateful for help
I have an existing table with a field labelled Job Number (17 Job Numbers). Each month I import a new table and match each record via another field (serial number). For each new record, one or many, I want to attach a sequential Job Number. In this example the new job numbers need to start at 18 then 19 etc. How is this possible? I am fairly new to Access so please be gentle!. Cheers
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi all,
Simple question (I hope)...
Need to devise a way of updating a field with an ascending sequential number within a group of records of similar type.
e.g.
Say I have records which consists of numerous IDs and various job descriptions within the each ID
13000 Head of Maths 1
13000 School Secretary 1
13000 Head of Maths 2
13000 Head of Maths 3
13000 School Secretary 2
14000 Head of Maths 1
So in this case each 'Head of Maths' and 'School Secretary' sequentially increments until there is a new ID.
Any help appreciated.
thanks,
Alex
I need to generate line numbers for an access query. This query is run via VB code. After it runs, a Dlookup is performed to search for the line number of a particular order detail id. When it finds it, it puts the line number along with other unique order detail information into a text file to be used by a computerized saw that cuts the parts out. Here's a sample query:
DetailID SortID Frmlgnth Stilelgnth OrderID SeqNo
1874864127.12511.9375160004
1874866127.1259.6875160006

1874862534.5103.375160002
1874861534.536.875160001
The query is supposed to be sorted with SortID Descending, Frmlgth Ascending, Stilelgth Ascending - in that order. The sort is working fine. However, the Sequential numbering is not. The OrderdetailID has NO bearing on the sort order. Here is my SQL code:
SELECT OrderDetails.OrderDetailID, ProductTypes.ProductTypeSortOrder, OrderDetails.FrameStileLengthActual, OrderDetails.FrameRailLengthActual, OrderDetails.OrderID, (SELECT count(*) FROM OrderDetails As x WHERE x.orderdetailid <= OrderDetails.orderdetailid AND x.orderid = orderdetails.orderid) AS SeqNo
FROM OrderDetails INNER JOIN ProductTypes ON OrderDetails.ProductType = ProductTypes.ProductType
GROUP BY OrderDetails.OrderDetailID, ProductTypes.ProductTypeSortOrder, OrderDetails.FrameStileLengthActual, OrderDetails.FrameRailLengthActual, OrderDetails.OrderID
HAVING (((OrderDetails.OrderID)=[forms]![orders]![orderid]))
ORDER BY ProductTypes.ProductTypeSortOrder, OrderDetails.FrameStileLengthActual DESC , OrderDetails.FrameRailLengthActual DESC;
Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm not too good with SQL, but I can figure it out (I think!). I've searched all the formus, but all the reference I can find regarding this don't work for me in my application...
I greatly appreciate any help you can give!
Hi,
Just trying to figure out how I can run a select query on some data I have and how to also include an additional field which has a value counting the number of rows.... eg in the first row there would be the usual results and the new field would have a value of 10001, second row would be 10002, third would be 10003.
I've done some searches for sequential numbering but couldnt find anything so far.
Thanks, j
I've taken on the task of transitioning excel reports (and their format) to a database. One report summarizes all the parts of a piece of furniture, and the order of the machines each part goes to.It looks similar to this:
Part# Part Name Machines/Operations
M7264Top Panel 112114116120121325216
M7265Under Top Panel 112114116120121
M7266Base Assembly 411325216311310312316
The table this comes from has both operations and setups, so I used a query to filter only the operations.The query (qryOperations) result looks like this:
PART NUMBEROPERATION ORDER
M7264 112 2
M7264 114 4
M7264 116 6
M7264 120 7
M7264 121 8
M7264 325 9
M7264 216 10
M7265 112 2
M7265 114 4
M7265 116 6
M7265 120 8
M7265 121 9
i need to add sequential numbering (1,2,3,4...) to each line of the qryOperations and use the sequential numbering as the column header.How do I add sequential numbers to the query, that restart after each change in part number? I can do this in a report easy enough, but not a query.This is the SQL of the query I need to have the sequential numbers in...
SELECT tblparts.[PART NUMBER], tblOperationCodes.MachineCode, tblOperationsList.Order
FROM tblparts INNER JOIN (tblOperationsList INNER JOIN tblOperationCodes ON tblOperationsList.OperationCode = tblOperationCodes.OperationCode) ON tblparts.[PART NUMBER] = tblOperationsList.[PART#]
WHERE (((tblOperationCodes.Function)="O"))
ORDER BY tblparts.[PART NUMBER], tblOperationsList.Order;
I have column called "order" in table called "mov" and this column has this layout
Code:
1

I have a question concerning the automatically sequential numbering of a primary key as part of a composite primary key.
Tbl_treatment:
ID=numeric field (also in tbl_pt and in tbl_tumor)
Tumornr=numeric field (also in tbl_tumor)
Treatmentnr=numeric field
[ID] and [tumornr] are fixed and i would like to automatically number [treatmentnr] per [ID] AND [tumornr] in a way that the output will look like this:
1001 1 1
1001 1 2
1001 1 3
1001 2 1
1001 2 2
1001 3 1, etcetera.
However, when i use the SQL-formula below my output looks like this. It seems as if the function is not properly taking the composite primary key of [ID] AND [tumornr] into account or not finding the true max value:
1001 1 1
1001 1 2
1001 1 3
1001 2 2
1001 2 3
1001 3 3, etcetera.
If (DCount("[treatmentnr]", "Tbl_treatment", "[ID] = " & Me.ID & "" & "AND [tumornr] = " & Me.tumornr & "")) = 0 Then Me.treatmentnr = fRowNum(False)
Else Me.treatmentnr = (DMax("[treatmentnr]", "Tbl_treatment", "[ID] = " & Me.ID & "" & "AND [tumornr] = " & Me.tumornr & "")) + 1
I have a table in my Access 2010 Database with few date/time fields. I have set different formats like Short Time, Medium Time etc. But when I link this table to Sharepoint list, all the date/time fields have been modified to their default format (General Date).
Is there a way we can keep the formats as such even after linked to Sharepoint list? If not, is there a workaround?
My ID field is an auto-assigned number. Is there any way to restart the auto-numbering at number 1?

I need to be able to re-index tables periodically so that running totals, which are needed to calculate statement balances, works correctly - all well and good.

Hi,
I have a 3rd party desktop application to manage inventory. The data will be stored in local MS Access database. I want to sync any changes (insert, update or delete) made to this database to remote MS Sql server immediately or in batches using a scheduler.
Is there any method to know the changed rows in an MS Access table after x time. I mean I want to get all the rows in an Access table that have been added or modified after a particular date and time (say "05-23-2007 10:15:00") without using a user defined date time column in that table.
If i can do the above operation, i will write queries to get the added or modified rows and update remote server in batches.
Thanks and Best Regards,
Anz
How do I set up a field so that when the record has been modified, the field is automatically filled in (or replaced) with a date? In other words if I open up my member's detail form, and go to Sally Smith and edit her information on 11 July 15, that date is saved into a field called last modified and then updated every time I go into her file and edit & save it.

[code]....
I have 5 copies of a database that 5 users enter data into (including Pre, Post and Follow-Up information). These users send me their database quarterly and I am suppose to merge the data into one database from which to run reports, etc.
The problem comes in with the auto-numbering. Each "Pre" table has an ID that is auto-numbered. This auto-number is also stored when a corresponding "Post" (or follow-up form) is entered so that we can be sure the pre-, post- and follow-up are all linked to the same individual. When I merge the data, they are reassigned ID numbers in the Pre (while the Post still has the original Pre ID number) so now I've lost the link as to one individual's pre, post and follow-up form.
I realize now that the database shouldn't have been built this way, but is there any way to work around this. I've even tried exporting all of the rows for each of the 5 users into Excel and then importing them into Access in a new table (just so I could have the ease of running queries) but I seem to be getting errors doing that as well.
Any ideas?

I like to have a Auto number field in my table (tbltask) that use below codification
B10000001
Where B = Base code and 000001 = Identifier of the task.
The identifier of the task is a unique 7 digits number
1. Which event occurs when anything changes on subform (Delete row , add row , perform the sort, Especially when you add a row to be inserted in the current sorting between the rows)
2. I have column sequential number that need updating when occurs any event on subform
3. "On current" is event that occurs always when changing rows in subform, how to process rows sequential (row by row) thru subform and update field that represent sequential number.
