    Custom autonumber

    The append query is the method I know will work, but I forgot how to create the append query without using the query item from the menu. If I use a starting number of 1000, the query comes up with no records. Fyii, I am trying to modify a table I made a few years ago. Jake

    Custom autonumber

    It’s been a while since I've used Access (360), so I'm very rusty. Is it possible to have the autoonumber primary key start from 1000? If so, how? Cheers, Jake

    Open form to specific record

    I did find an answer. It turns out, there are a couple of issues with the wizard. First of all, it is not showing the fields in the resident (working) form. Secondly, when it did work (I guess it did for someone at some point), it was leaving out one "=" from the code. Ultimately, from a...

    Open form to specific record

    Unfortunately, the db contains personal, confidential, financial information - so that is a problem. What I can say is that there is only one table and the field I am trying to match is an ID field (autonumber) as long integer (Access default). That is the key field. What is the oddest part is...

    Open form to specific record

    As best I can tell from my rusty vba, that looks like it. But I am wondering why the wizard is not showing the fields in the form I am making the selection from. I would be less surprised if it didn't show the form to be opened, but this is the resident form on which I am currently working. Any...

    Open form to specific record

    Unfortunately, this is not what I am looking for; I don't want to use a combo box, but a button. Thanks anyway.

    Open form to specific record

    Hi, It has been a few years since I used Access, so I'm asking your patience.. I am trying to open a columnar form from a tabular form (continuous) using a command button. I used the button wizard, but when I tried to match the key field ("id") in each form, it only showed fields on the right...

    "Select" from a module

    Hi, I am a bit confused where I went wrong.... In a form, I have 4 option buttons in a frame, named optLog. The Click Event is as follows: Private Sub optLog_Click() selLog End Sub In the module, the function selLog contains the following: Select Case optLog Case 1...

    Trying to change recordsource

    Perhaps my thinking is skewed or I just plain don't understand, but the reasoning for the tables by the individual months (12 in all). is that it seemed simpler to change the recordsource by the month rather than making filters to sort by the months, which are entered in "short date" format. As...

    Trying to change recordsource

    Hi, I have two tables: tblJan, tblFeb I have 1 form: frmMonth. I am trying to use a command button to change the recordsource to view another month. Here is what I have: Sub cmdFeb_Click() Forms!frmMonth.RecordSource = "tblFeb" End Sub An...

    Hiding fields with data

    OK, to answer honestly, it was not my idea. The issue is that those instances where a customar makes three purchases at different times, in one P.O. The "person" in charge wants all transactions of all instances under one heading of the PO number. I inherited this mess, and am trying to avoid...

    Hiding fields with data

    If I would use a custom dialag box, I could test against the data in the dialog box to match against the fields, then...?

    Hiding fields with data

    To ask a bit further, since there is no predictability as to which field will contain the name based on the Select query, would this logic still apply? If I am asking to show which records contain "John Doe" in any one of the three fields, or all of them, I only want to show the fields that...

    Hiding fields with data

    Hi, I have a report that has three fields that could each have a the same customer name in, based on a query that asks for the customer name. If, for example, two of the fields show the selected customer, is it possible to hide the third field that has a different customer name in? If it...

    Count within a group

    re Count within a group I'm not sure I follow - if I use DISTINCT within the query, then I will get only those records for that number, but I want all the records, only I want to count the number of times the jobNo changes. Please explain..
