Hi all,
Simple question (I hope)...
Need to devise a way of updating a field with an ascending sequential number within a group of records of similar type.
e.g.
Say I have records which consists of numerous IDs and various job descriptions within the each ID
13000 Head of Maths 1
13000 School Secretary 1
13000 Head of Maths 2
13000 Head of Maths 3
13000 School Secretary 2
14000 Head of Maths 1
So in this case each 'Head of Maths' and 'School Secretary' sequentially increments until there is a new ID.
Any help appreciated.
thanks,
Alex
