autonumber

I'm having trouble running an INSERT statement where there's an autonumber as the PK field. I have an Auto-incrementing long as the Primary Key, and then 4 fields of type double ; and yet Access (using ADO) seems to want five values for the insert statement. INSERT INTO [MY_TABLE] VALUES (1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0); >> Error: Number of query values and destinations fields are not the same. INSERT INTO [MY_TABLE] VALUE (1, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0); >> Success!! How do I use Autonumbering to actually autonumber? If you do not want to provide values for all columns that exists in your table, you've to

I have been searching for a solution to this autonumber problem that I am having. There seems to be no definite answer anywhere. I have a form which has a text field. I want this form to display the next number from a field in a table. Example: the table contains 3 records with the values D001, D002, D003 The form is used to enter new records (new data). So next time I enter data I want D004 to automatically show up on the text field for data code in the form. How can this be done? You can use the BeforeInsert event of the form: Me!AutoNumber.Value = Format(Val(Nz(Right(DMax("[AutoNumber]", "

My database is made for skiing competitions. The idea is that you can fill in the times people ski, and the databse automatically calculates what kind of medal you earned based on someone who set the time first, your gender and your age. I have made a form that makes it able to sign up and give all the results. The only problem I'm having now is when signing someone up, it must be ordered on age. I did that, but now the autonumbering is all messed up. What I want is that I can put all the names of the competitors in, and after that I want to have a query which I can choose that assigns all of

What I try is to import several tables programmatically from Microsoft SQL Server to Microsoft Access. Each SQL Server table has an identity column, and the corresponding Access tables, an autonumber column, too. Now I want to generate SQL scripts to copy the data from SQL Server to Access and have the autonumber colum the same value as in SQL server. Is this possible? When doing it the other way from Access to SQL Server, it is rather easy by using SET IDENTITY_INSERT [MyTable] ON and later SET IDENTITY_INSERT [MyTable] OFF . I found out that there is no such statement for Microsoft Access.

This question already has an answer here: How to restart counting from 1 after erasing table in MS Access? 4 answers I have a INSERT INTO ... SELECT statement that copies data from one table to another. The thing though is, the AutoNumber column value in the second table started from the last number in the first one. Meaning the count of first table is 2000, then, the second table started from 2001. Using an Access database, how to reset this value? You can execute an Access DDL statement from ADO to reset the autonumber seed value. Here is an example Immediate window session: strDdl = "ALTER
