    Incrementing field in forms only when opened

    Ready to throw my flippin' pc through the wall, even though I know it isn't the dumb one...It's me... I think I did what you told me to do. I created a class module. The left drop down box said general and the right said declarations. This is what I put in. Option Compare Database Public...

    Incrementing field in forms only when opened

    I think I see...But I am still lost on where I put the variable. Is it a formula? And do I need to put it in each time I open the form?

    Incrementing field in forms only when opened

    I am sorry to be a pain, but I am self taught and questions asked when I can't figure something out in Access. I am not sure where this "variable" spot is that you are talking about. But if I am understanding you correctly it is going to put 712 there all the time. But each time I open the...

    Incrementing field in forms only when opened

    I love this forum and how quickly everyone answers. I did what you said and sure enough it did load the way I wanted. Now here is my next question. Lets say I fill in the first line's product and it populates 712 for my purchase order number, is it possible to now make my second line for that...

    Inventory Total in a table

    Please disregard my last post...Although it would be nice to have the original entered, I did try what Brian said. I can simply run my report off of the Inventory Receiving List and roll with it that way....It is doing exactly what I need it to do as far as total inventory available...So, either...

    Inventory Total in a table

    Again, thank you for your input, both of you. Maybe I am confusing you? Which, given my nature, I don't think that statement it toooo far from the truth!! :) We want to keep the total quantity received in the receiving list as it was when it came in. Simply for reference. I have the form...

    Inventory Total in a table

    Okay...kinda found a way around my issue....I had the report give me a sum total on the trace code footer....I then inserted a text box with a code that subracts the tracecode total from the tracecode total qty/length received.... A bizzare way around it I guess, but it will work...Do you forsee...

    This is the error I am receiving: "Microsoft Office Access can't find the field "I" referred to in your expression." It really isn't an I, it's a line like an I without the top or bottom... I am so confused....

    Inventory Total in a table

    And as usual in my case, I am getting errors... I am assuming (Please correct me if I am wrong) that I needed to replace parts of your code with my field names...So this is what I typed in: docmd.runsql "UPDATE Productused SET [quantity field]=[qtyused]-" & me.[qty_used] & " WHERE...

    Inventory Total in a table

    Okay. I have a table we use when we receive in inventory. (Table is "InventoryReceivingList") It is all tracked by a 3 letter trace code (which the product is marked with). I have another table where the guys simply type in the 3 letter trace code and the qty they are using (Table is...

    Auto Increment By One Letter

    Brian, Bossman = Happy man. However, he has brought me more confusion. I did add a form that allows for the guys on the floor to log what they take out by simply typing in the trace code and the qty. He wants me to be able to run a report that states how many are left of the said product...
