How to create customized sequential numbers

1 New Member
Does anyone know how I can create a customized sequential number? For example: CP-001, CP-002, CP-003

What I need is for access to automatically create the consecutive number for each new record.

PLEASE HELP!

Thanks!

  1. This line of code will produce the next Sequential Number for the Format you specified:
    Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
    1. Debug.Print "CP-" & Format$(Val(Right$("CP-002",3)+1),"000")
  2. OUTPUT:
    Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
    1. CP-003
  3. If you are not sure as to how to incorporate it into your application, let us know.

I have a temp table that's populated with an insert query in as tored procedure. The temp table has a uniqueID as the primary key. In that table I have a column SortOrder. What I want to do is to create a sequential number in SortOrder but only for records matching a WHERE statement, for example: (pardon the shorthand...) Insert *.tblPermanent into tblTemp If myField = 1 then SortOrder = 1(2,3,4,5,.....etc.) else

I have a database that is pre-populated with sequential part numbers. As people reserve the parts I update a flag to show the # is no longer available. Now they want the ability to take out a block of "x" number of sequential part numbers - say for example 5. If my database had the following numbers available: 101 104 105 110

I have list of numbers in a table (originally from autonumber in a different database) from 1 to 1,000,000. The list is not in sequential order - there are loads of numbers missing. How can I identify what numbers are missing? Thanks, Lap (I'd like to then use this 'missing number list' to use for new records, instead of autonumber - I think I need to use DMax - can someone summarise

I'm wondernig if it's possible to do the following: I'd like to average every 2 numeric values in a table as they appear sequentially ordered by their time stamps. I was thinking the only way to do this is to create another column in the table that is populated with sequential numbers that increase by 1 every two values like so: 1 1 2

Surely someone has done this before, and I am guessing there is a simple solution that is eluding me. I have a simple report based on a recordset. For each record there is a field (RecNum) that is basically a sequential number from 1 to n. Occasionally there are skips between numbers. I would like to print 'record skipped' for each record missing from the sequence. For example, if there were no records numbered 5 and 6 in a sequence...

I am developing a Work Order Database for my job. I have a combo box with "Contract Numbers" to select from. When you select on any Contract Number I need a new "Work Order Number" to appear. There are 10 different contract numbers so I need 10 different work order numbers (N10001, O100001, etc..) to generate sequential for each new record.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
