    Thanks guys for your help. Roy, you do have a valid a point about autonumber not being sequential. I guess, I will have to change that.

    Autonumbering

    Yeah, I am using autonumbering for IDs only. It is a blank database, but i need to start Invoice numbers not at 0 but at 5000. Igor, is there any way just to assign something like that in Access without without writing a VB query? I know very little about VB and I would not even know where to...

    Faxing a report

    I was asked to fax a report from Access 2003. I have just read an article that I will need to create a macro, but it was for Access 97. Any changes since that? Also, from the Macro it looks like it changes the file format to RTF. Am I going to lose all graphics and formating when it faxes the...

    Rounding Totals

    Thanks, Newman. However, there should a more efficient way to do this rather than use a whole bunch of IIF statements. I would have to have an IIF statement for each possible range of the total. For example, I get a total that is $90 and want to round it to the nearest 100. I need an IIF...

    Rounding Totals

    I have a text box on my form that calculates the total of all purchases. I saw a rounding function in Access, but I need something that I can customize. For example, if the total order is $90, it would round it to $100, if the order is $19, 693 it would round it to $20K. Basically, it would...

    Sending Data between Forms

    Pat, Thank you for trying to help me. After I got your reply, I realized that I was so far off that I needed to figure out myself what to ask you. I found a place that was explaining VB for Access and your reply made sense and now I fixed the problem. Thank you for your help.

    I have a CUSTOMER form with a CUSTOMER_ORDER subform, which basically shows all the orders by each customer. However, when I select one of the records in the CUSTOMER_ORDER subform and click on the order button to take me to the ORDER form, it always shows the very first record of the subform in...
