How do I create 100 records automatically

1 New Member
HI,

I have 6 order book for issuing order numbers to suppliers.
Each has 100 unique numbers in it which I need to create in a trackable database to track our outgoing payments against each order number for each supplier.

Is there a way to create an order book that automatically creates 100 records with specified unique order numbers?

Does anyone know of some existing database similar that I can use as a starter?

thanks

Kevin

You can either generate your own unique numbers(recomme nded) or use a custom autonumber(not recommended) You can limit the numbers by testing your Order No field against 100 and take some action when it reaches that limit.

My problem is as follows: I need automatically iterate through a single field in a table and use the values in the field to create an in-statement. Currently, the character limitation in the "Zoom" feature of the MS Access query builder limits the number of characters I can enter into my In-Statement. As a result, I need to iterate through a particular field (Customer ID Numbers) and use each record as a criteria in a query. I want to...

My first thought...

My application has a table that contains information on buildings. The building data comes from another database and is imported from a spreadsheet into my application. Originally, I thought that when a building data update is available, I would simply delete the existing data and import the new data into the table. However, now it seems that there may be a requirement to keep the historical data. Of course there is mountains of code...
