Need to increment a non-standard number

Hi,

I have a field in a table that needs to be automatically incremented
but the number is non-standard. There is already existing data in the
table but for future records, I need a certain number and it's
increment to appear.

Original data: Pkg_Id=1111.000 1, 1111.0002, etc.
New data: Pkg_Id=2008.100 0
Any record added after Pkg_ID=2008.100 0 needs to look like the
following: 2008.1001,2008. 1002,2008.1003, etc.

I need help with the VB code to set the first inserted record to be
2008.1000 and every new record after that to be 2008.1001, 2008.1002,
etc.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I was wondering why the STL RB Tree implementation is used when the iterators of map are incremented/decremented to yield successors and predecessors? This takes O(log n) time (and a lot of memory thrashing depending on the size of the tree) whereas just a simple pointer chase would make it O(1). Is there an easy way to code this in C++ (Threaded red black tree? ) OR Modify map so that map<>::iterator, ++it/--it becomes O(1)? Thanks in...

I'm trying to figure out if an increment to a variable of an integer type, followed by a decrement, (or vice versa) is guaranteed to restore the variable to its initial value, even if the first operation causes the variable to overflow/underflow. In other words, if foo_t is an integer type, are the following two functions guaranteed to *always* return a non-zero value? int check_overflow(foo_t f) {

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,...
