Hi all, I use (something like) following code to add new records to a database, but it doesn't work!!! I need to know the value of an AutoNumber-field when I add the record. Why doesn't it work and how can I make it work??? I think it should be easy, but I can't figure it out!

I'm finding this to be extremely difficult to set up. I understand that Access won't manage the primary key and the cascade updates for a table. Fine. I tried changing the PK type to number and setting default value to a UDF that manages the auto-numbering. Access won't take a UDF as a default value. Okay, I'll use SQL WITHOUT any aggregate functions, for the default value. Access won't do that either. Okay, I create a second...

If I have a table with an autonumber primary key and 100 records and I delete the last 50 records, the next record added would have a primary key of 101. Is there any way to have the primary key start at 51 after the last 50 records are deleted? Thanks! Traci

Sometimes I use Autonumber fields for ID fields. Furthermore, sometimes I use those same fields in orderdetail type tables. So it's important in that case that once an autonumber key value is assigned to a record that it doesn't change. Occasionally I find that due to corruption or an accidental deletion and restore of a record from a backup the autonumber field needs to be tidied up. So when I create (through AddNew) the autonumber...

1. I want to create an autonumber, my requirement is : 2005/0001 (Year/autonumber), which year & autonumber no. both can auto run. 2. I had create a query by making relation to a table & query, but I can't update record in query or in form. I believe the problem is due to the source query. In source query, there is a filter to show the incomplete record ("is null" in delivery date)], but I need to re-use the job no. if the job is...

A project I'm working on is going to use VB6 as a front end. The back end is going to be pre-existing MS Access 2002 database tables which already have records in them *but do not have any AutoNumber* fields in them. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm assuming this means that I cannot now alter these existing Access tables and change their primary key to an "AutoNumber" type. If I'm right about this, I need some suggestions as to the...

To comp.databases.ms-access -- I just discovered, to my more than mild dismay, that some tables in my Microsoft Access 2003 database have duplicate numbers in the "AutoNumber" field. (Field Size is set to "Long Integer", and New Values is set to "Increment".) I know that an old version of the Jet database engine can cause this problem, but my version of msjet40.dll is 4.0.8618.0, which is supposedly bug-free in this respect. I am...

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,...
