Serial Number

[George]

Hi all,

I have a macro to export to Excel a table (MS-Access). I have a field
called Sn in which I need to record serial numbers in Excel. I want to be
asked by running the query (through the macro) the starting number, e.g. 10
and then if i export ten records in this column to be filled serially 10, 11,
12.. 19.

Any idea of how can I do this?

Thank you in advance,

George

Sounds as if you need a ranking query as the export query and then need to
add 10 to the ranking using a parameter prompt.

Since you've not posted any details on the query or the fields involved this
is about all the detail I can give you.

Field: SN: [Enter Start Number]-1 + DCount("*","YourSourceTable","<<<Some
Where Clause>>>")

Google ranking query to get some ideas or post the SQL text of your query

(Possibly unneeded instructions follow)
Open the query
Select View:Sql from the Menu
Select all the text
Copy it
Paste it into the message

That may be enough for someone to help you build the proper query.

Dear John, This is my SQL:

SELECT "" AS sn, T_Applications.Marking
FROM T_Applications
WHERE (((T_Applications.Marking)>50));

And I need to fill the field sn with a serial number (starting with the
number it will ask me)

Thank you

OK, why no order by clause? Second, is Marking a unique field? If not,
what is the name of your primary key and what type of data is it.

Assumption:
Marking is unique value in the table

Parameters [Enter Start Number] Long;
SELECT [Enter Start Number] - 1 +
DCount("Marking","T_Applications","Marking>50 and Marking <=" &
T_Applications.Marking) as SN, Marking
FROM T_Applications
WHERE T_Applications.Marking>50
ORDER BY Marking

Thanks a lot my friend,

It works but not perfectly because the marking field is not a unique field.

Any more good ideas?

Thanks again

George

If you don't have a field or a combination of fields to uniquely identify
each record then I have no further ideas.
