Numbers to increment with each new form

[Rupelo]

I am working with this new database and my boss would like me to add something else.

First off she wants me to have a textbox so that I could enter the first datacard number at the begining of the day. This number will appear in the form as they input their information. now when I go to a new record I would like this number to increase by one and display the new number in the same text box.

Secondly, she wants me to have a comment box which automatically updates itself everytime a field is changed or updated

Any help with these will be greatly appreciated

Right the easest way on this is to have a an number incrementant number on it that you can reset - check the samples dbases for this

I would recommedn that you change the way this works though
i would just have a incremental number that just increases by 1 every time rather than enter in a number in a box then add on from that

and with regards to your second - check the samples someone has done this already
