Tables :: Entering ID In Form And Viewing Table With Its Corresponding Name
Dec 1, 2013I have made a table and I enter data in that table through a form. The form also include two sybchronized comboboxes. When I select a category in one combo box, corresponding items are selected in second combo box. The problem is that when I select the category in the form (with ID+Category Name), it stores only the ID in the table. How can I see the Category Name in the table (which is the control source of the form) instead of ID?

View 1 Replies View RelatedTables :: Split Database - Viewing Table Relationships
Sep 17, 2014My db is split into front-end and back-end. In the f-e's Relationships schematic, I can see the relationships as they were defined at the time when the db was split, complete with the one-to-many symbology.
I can add a new table to the b-e and set its relationship as one-to-many, enforcing referential integrity and cascading as I wish - and the schematic (in the b-e) reflects that.
In the f-e, I can then use the <Get External Data - Access Database> function to link to the new table, and I can add the new table to the relationships diagram in the f-e. I can also drag and drop to link primary and foreign keys (within the f-e), but cannot select one-to-many. I'm OK with that, as I understand that the relationship is within the b-e, and this is just a diagrammatic representation.
But I can see the one-to-many relationships between the tables which existed when the db was split, and I would like to be able to see the new table's relationships in a consistent fashion. Updating the linked tables via the Linked Table Manager does not do the trick.
Surely I don't have to split the database again in order to achieve a consistent diagram - do I ?
Modules & VBA :: Viewing Values That Exist In Table TblTest2 To User?
Aug 5, 2013I'm having trouble viewing values that exist in table 'tblTest2' to the user. The first set of code (below) doesn NOT work. Yet the second set of code (all the way at the bottom) DOES work. And by work I mean that it erases the old values and only puts the tblTest2's new values. The first set of code has values but they are not the right ones. The second set of code has the correct values for its statement...
Code:
strTable = "tblTest2" 'Table for storing values for viewing purposes
DoCmd.DeleteObject acTable, strTable 'Delete tblTest2 old values

Controlling Autonumber Field - Start Autonumber From 1 Everyday (Composite Key)
Nov 21, 2013I have two tables linked to each other in one to many relationship. Instead of auto number, the date and shift (Text) is being used as the primary keys (Composite Primary Key). Here is the tables structures,
Payouts Table:
Date: Primary Key
Shift (Day or Night) : Primary Key
Bills Table:
Date: Primary Key
Shift (Day or Night): Primary Key
Autonumber: Primary Key
The tables Payouts and Bills has one to many relationship. One payout row can have many bills. The problem is that I want to start the Autonumber in bills table everyday from 1. As date and shift are different for every day so even if i start bills from 1 everyday, it wont make same primary key. I can do it manually but I want to make it automatically.
Form+Table, 2nd Autonumber Help
Apr 10, 2008I have a table that stores orders in. There is a form to input data into this table, that I choose the products from a products table (using a subform) for the order. Once I submit the form, it submits several rows according to how many products I chose (a row for each product and the order) to the orders table.
The orders table has a autonumber primary key ID, so each of these rows has a different ID number.
I also want a column to store an order number (field: OrderNo) that is the same for each row (each product) for this order in question and not be different, allowing me to do a query for that order number and see all the products under it.
So I need the form to lookup the last highest order number from the OrderNo field, add +1 then when I add a product, it gives the SAME number to each one.
I hope this makes sense and I hope you can explain to how I do this? :)
Thanks,
Nick.

View 4 Replies View RelatedAutoNumber Not Matching Between Table And Form
Aug 5, 2005I have a form, its based on a query. That query contains an Autonumber(intID) from a Table(customers). I also have another table(dealers), that uses the ID number as well. Next to the dealer info, I can click the "+" and it'll show all customers pertaining to that dealer.
I've seen some that have had different ID numbers. In the form, one has the ID of 222...while in the Dealer Table it has the ID of 227.
Does anyone know what the problem is?
Also...I have a subform where you can add a dealer to this Dealer Table if it does not exist in the combo box. Here's the code:
If MsgBox("Add New Dealer Number?", vbYesNo, "Warning") = vbYes Then
DoCmd.OpenForm "DealerContact", acNormal, , , acFormAdd, acDialog, NewData
Response = acDataErrAdded
End If
Thanks for the help.
Copy Autonumber To Another Field In Same Table
Jul 31, 2006I need to make changes to a table already containing data. Currently the autonumber field is simply there as a primary key, but I now wish to use it for another number field (Accession No) which was previously completed manually.
As this doesn't seem possible or practical (as I need the flexibility to overwrite the number sometimes), I just want the autonumber to also appear in the Accesion No field when a new record is added (but be manually overwriteable).
I've had a play with default values and lookups, but with no success, and haven't found anything on the forum. Where am I going wrong, or is this just not possible?
Thanks for your help.

Table With Autonumber And Need Date Code
Mar 15, 2007I have a table named tblProjectNumber that has a autonumber field. In design view under the format property I have "NC07-"00000, this returns the a new project number with the text in front of it. What I would really want is for the text the change dynamically with the year. So an example would be NC07-00000 for project numbers created this year but I will manually have to change it for next year and the all of the previous project numbers will change accordingly. I have tried "DateSerial(Year(Date())-"00000 , Date("yy") and I can't get it tto work.Any help would be great.

Junction Table -number Or Autonumber?
Dec 21, 2007Hi :)
I have solved a m:n relationship by adding a junction table. The composite primary key in the junction table is made up of primary keys from the other two tables, and both of theses primary keys are set to autonumber.
My question is this: Is it correct to set both parts f the composite key in he junction table to number rather than autonumber?
I was thinking that since autonumber should be set only once, the junction table should just take on what ever value there is in the primary keys of the other two tables.
Kind Regards

I'm new to this forum and have a question:
I want to create a table with an Autonumber field using a SQL statement,
in Microsoft Access Database, something like this:
Cnn.execute "CREATE TABLE newtable (id Long, Name Char(100)) "
is there something to put in place of "long" to make the field autonumber?
I tried the word "autonumber", but did not work.
Many Thanx.

Create Calculated Autonumber In A Table
Mar 17, 2008I have a table where one field needs to be an autonumber, however, that autonumber needs to be calculated. This field is not based on any other information in the database, but there's a very complicated mathematical process behind it, which I'm figuring out...I just need to know once I get that code complete, how do I tie it into the table?
View 7 Replies View RelatedTable With Primary Key - Autonumber In Increments
Jun 25, 2014I have a table that has a primary key that does an autonumber in increments. Then I made some queries that will append records by date and then also another query that will delete what was appended. Then I created a reverse sequence of this process in case I change my mind and would like to put back the records I archived, however, when I do this, the primary key is now thrown off and will still revert to the last primary key that was appended before the archive ever took place. In other words it still thinks that the records I appended before I did the reverse, are still there. So now it will not let me save the record because it is a duplicate.
Is there a way to set the autonumber for the primary key to where I want it to begin?
Append A Field Of Autonumber Into New Table
Nov 15, 2011I have the field called subject_id which is autonumber in the form of 10001,10002,... And I want the field with the same format to appear in another table. But appending it leads to different numbering, i.e. the filed becomes 1, 2, ... instead of 10001, 10002 as I've formatted it in its original table. How could I append/copy such a field?

Access 97 + Linked Table Oracle + Autonumber
Mar 24, 2006Hello,
I'm making a MS Access frontend for some tables on the Oracle 8 database at work. The tables are linked ofcourse.
One table has an AUTONUMBER field on the Oracle and it seems to give me trouble to insert new records.
When I try to insert a new record (leave the autonumber field blank) I get the following error: "ODBC — insert on a linked table <table> failed. (Error 3155)" followed by the error "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver for Oracle][Oracle]ORA-01722: invalid number (#1722)".
When I look at the Oracle documentation I got this:
ORA-01722 invalid number
Cause: The attempted conversion of a character string to a number failed
because the character string was not a valid numeric literal. Only numeric fields or character fields containing numeric data may be used in arithmetic functions or expressions. Only numeric fields may be added to or subtracted from dates.
Action: Check the character strings in the function or expression. Check that
they contain only numbers, a sign, a decimal point, and the character "E" or "e" and retry the operation.
I checked the INSERT statement: "INSERT INTO AFM_HV_PROP_VALUE (HV_INST_ID, HV_PROPERTY_ID, TABLE_NAME, HV_PROPERTY_VALUE) VALUES (4, 'V_TESTJE', 'hv_inst', '123465')" and everything seems to be allright. The value that's causing the error is the "4" that gets in the "HV_INST_ID"-field.
Using TOAD to execute the SQL Statement, there is no problem at all.
When I look at the table design in MS Access I see that the Autonumber field is of the type "Double". That doesn't seem right to me...
Anyone some suggestions? I'm running out of courage :s
Greetings,
Niels R.

I am trying to create a make-table query, with a new AutoNumber field.
I know that if you are creating a new Text field you type FieldName: "" in Field and for a Number field you would type FieldName: [], but what do you type for an AutoNumber field?

View 9 Replies View RelatedTables :: Set Autonumber To Start From Last Record On The Table
Jun 10, 2015I had a backup from a table that I saved to excel. Somehow we lost all the records from the table 10 minutes later. There where gaps in the id numbers due to some delete records in the past, and when I did try to put it back in the access table the records some how shift. is there a way of still using the ID nr that is an autonumber in the table and when I set the data back from excel and use the append when paste that they show up correctly? Maybe I can set the autonumber to start from the last record on the table?
View 14 Replies View RelatedAdding AutoNumber As Primary ID To Existing Table
Jan 31, 2012I have a simple database that I inherited, that contains basic customer contact info. We want to start adding more functionality to the database, so I've done alot of research to learn about how to begin normalizing my data.The existing table does not contain a useful primary key, since we may have multiple individuals from the same company, companies with very similar names, etc.
I would like to add an AutoNumbered field to use as a CustomerID/primary key, but I can't seem to find a way to do so. Here is what I've tried so far:
I have tried to add a field to the table, and make it an AutoNumber data type. When I do so, I can error message saying that I cannot make a field AutoNumber if any other field in the table already has data entered in it.I have tried to create a new table containing only an AutoNumber PrimaryID field, and then import data from the existing table, but that just creates a 3rd table.
