Sequential Numbering in Query

I have a query which shows start date and the last 4 digits of a
person's SSN. I need sequential numbering of an assending start date
yet desending last 4 digits of SSN (L4SSN). Using:
RowNum: (Select Count (*) FROM [qry1] as Temp
WHERE [Temp].[startdate] < [qry1].[startdate])+1
I can get close to what I want, but in case of ties, this just gives
me the same number, i.e. 1, 2, 2, 4, 5, 6, 6, 6. I want to refer to
desending order of L4SSN for sequential numbering in case of ties. Is
this possible? Thanks.

Greetings, I've been working on a project for my church for a couple of weeks. We're going to be selling tickets to our events and we need to look for available seats in our hall. I have a query that returns to me all the seats that are available, which is great but the ideal solution would be to return X number of seats based on a seatnum (Integer).

I posted this yesterday and it seems like a moderator has thrown it in another thread. This is a totally different question to the one asked in that thread, so I'm posting it again. It is not a simple "numbering records on a report" question. It is more complex than that. I have a report that shows the results of a query. One of the fields is an autonumber field from the query which shows for instance: 120, 121 , 122 for 3 records. ...

Hi All: I know this is simple, but I just can't seem to get there: I need to sort a table by a text field (txtDescription), then assign sequential numbers to the field SEQUENCE in table. Every time a new record is added, the all SEQUENCE #'s must be reset. The re-numbering will be triggered by an EXPORT button.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
