insert AutoNumber field in form

1 New Member
Hello,

In the database attached, I have an order form that can add order items in a subform. Everything works fine but the end user has to enter the order id every time a new order is applied.
Please, can you help me set an autoNumber field that automates the Order id entries.

Thanks in advance,

In the Orders table, just change the OrderID data type to be AutoNumber instead of Number. That is all it takes.

I have created a SQL string the properly inserts a record in the table. However, the insert does not occur at the end of the table. Instead it inserts a record after the last record that I viewed. This would be OK, except it assigns a autonumber to be one greater than the last viewed record. This causes a duplicate autonumber. I know I can change the autonumber index (Primary Key) to not allow duplicates. How can I force the insert...

I'm having a problem with a form that uses AutoNumber as the primary key. I have an Abort button to delete the current record and close the form. If AutoNumber is assigned, the code executes a SQL statement that deletes the current record. I need to be able to detect when AutoNumber is unassigned (a new blank record) so that I can simply close the form without running the SQL delete statement. Unfortunately, no tests I can think of...

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

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,...
