SQL Problem In Defining Recordset

[BenSC]

Dear All,
I have the following problem, which I am really stumped on. I have a database to store details of building projects, which can be funded from one or more budgets and also have a financial year attached to them. On my data entry form I want to enter the relevant data and have access automatically provide me with a project reference in the following format:

Single Funded Project - ACC-04/05-01. If this reference already existed then I would want access to return ACC-04/05-02 and so on.

Multi-Funded Project - ACC/AMPC-04/05-01. If this reference already existed then I would want Access to return ACC/AMPC-04/05-02 and so on.

I have the following code running on a timer event and can't figure out how to get the recordset to select only the projects which match the budget (e.g. the ACC- part). I am ok with restricting the records returned for the financial year because that is a seperate field.

If anyone could help me with this I'd be very grateful.

Many Thanks

Ben Cooper

I'm not sure I understand the question; I especially don't understand the use of the timer event, but are you looking for something like:

where left(reference,len(strbudget)) = strbudget

A little further detail as to what your desired outcome, and what the inputs are would go a long way to getting the info you're looking for.
