incrementing values based on records

R

I have a form based on a table which has an Order ID number. Every time I make a new record I want the value to just increase by 1 (based on the last record in the table). How do I do this?

Hi,
This might works for you:

Put this in the default value for the control that is bound to
your OrderId field:
=DMax("OrderId","yourTable") + 1
