What is the data type for an auto number value?

This is probabally more simpler than I am making it but all I am trying
to do is count the number of recrods in a child table where my IteimID
number matches. I have the following code: nAdd = DCount("*",
"AddComment ", "[ItemID]='" & Me.ItemID.Value & "'")
this works fine until I try and do the where clause. Access keeps
telling me there is a data type mismatch. The me.itemid.value is an
auto number and the ItemID is the child id which matches the Item Id if
it exists. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

Remove your single quotes.

Strings are surrounded by quotes, dates by #, numbers are on their own.
"[ItemID]=" & Me.ItemID)

I have the following code that populates 3 independent drop-down boxes with data from arrays. From there the user can select a value from a drop-down list, or input data into a text box. The user then submits this to be inserted into the database. Currently I've only programmed to have the first input box/drop-down valid. The problem I am having is that, even though I've inserted my SQL into a sub procedure, the code is still run prior...

I don't know if jdbc/java code requires this, but when I use two gui admin tools I found, and I insert a row into the table using their row editor feature, both require me to enter a number for the Serial type. I thought this type was used to auto-increment an id field and that I would not need to enter anything into it? Basically we need the normal indexed ID field for each table, and we want it to auto-increment. The serial shows a function of...

Working as a beginner with data objects in Visual Studio 2003 and C#, I use the "Generate Dataset" command in order to generate automatically the dataset objects based on data adapters. Generated objects offer a convenient way of working with database fields. For instance, if a database table contains a "quantity" column, then, in the program, you will use expressions like "row.quantity". This is more comfortable then writing something as...

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,...
