    Auto numbering

    Thanks for the quick response Happy Turkey Day! Possibly the problem is I am not communicating the difficulties I am having clearly. What I am looking for is a way to have a true alphanumeric sequence. The format trick works on the form but not in the actual data in the table. Also the two...

    Auto numbering

    I have been told to stay away from them as well, however I still think they will be the best for my use, The only problem I am having is I want to make an alphanumeric autonumber (format AB1234) Where AB is dependant upon a combo box in my form. When I select the job site from the drop down box...

    Alpha Numeric auto-generated number based on a combo box...

    Michael, I do not have enough programming experience to properly modify the code listed in your FAQ. Also the FAQ does not cover this particular instance where I need the two letters within the Case Number to be dependant upon which post location is selected in the dropdown combobox (i.e...

    Alpha Numeric auto-generated number based on a combo box...

    Looking at the code with my limited knowledge it looks like it would work for me, however I am a bit of a newbie, so where exactly would it go? In an event and if so which one? Thanks for the Quick response Neowynds

    Alpha Numeric auto-generated number based on a combo box...

    Hello all, I am done with my Security Incident Report database except for one thing. I need it to auto generate a case number for each file as they are entered in. The format for the number needs to be NM1234. The two text characters will be dependant upon which location they choose from a drop...

    Easy question from newbie :-)

    If you are using the company intranet is it possible for her to make a data access page and link it to a website so that the other person can use the database without ever opening access. Im just a technical user but I think the concept might work, I would ask some of the more experienced people...

    auto number

    OK, Not sure if anyone is still monitoring this thread or not, but I have set up my database to be exclusive so that only one person at a time may have the database open. And these are the steps I took to try to get an autogenerated CaseNumber Table = SIR 1. Table - Field named CaseNumber...

    auto number

    Thank you I think I will go with opening in exclusive mode. Just on the offchance. Thanks for the advice. Neowynds the REALIST. I am not optimistic nor pessimistic but a delightful blend of both. Wich sometimes causes a quarrel in my mind. You dont wanna see me when THAT happens. TRUST ME...

    auto number

    I see your point, however the nature of this particular database is that the user will not even have it open unless there is a security incident (i.e. fire, theft, etc.) The chances of three officers all filling out incident reports on three things that happened simultaneously is slim to none...

    Access 2000 to 97 conversion problem

    What do you mean declared? The combo box row source is a query that contains LocationID,LocationName,and Address. I made sure all three were still in there when I opened the database in 97 because I had run into the problem of not having them all in my query before. If you mean did I have them...

    auto number

    Maurie, Where would that go and what would the code be? I am looking at making a numbering system for case numbers and need something similar to an invoice number. Also there is very little chance of two users entering records simultaneously on my database since there are only three authorized...

    Access 2000 to 97 conversion problem

    Thanks for the Quick response, No no error. It is a blank box, almost as if it is not registering the third column in my query the combo box is based off of. If I switch the column number to 1 I get the LocationName. But when I switch it to 2 I dont get the address like I did in 2000. Its very...
