As a newer user to MS Access 2003 I have run into a few problems. I have
dabbled a bit and figured out some of my own answers by accident and reading,
however, I am trying to create a unique field on a form for a user. I have
the field set up to input some characters automatically but the user would
have to put in the last two digits of the year and numeric month and a three
digit job number. The format appears like this:
XXXX-0704-001 (<- YYMM, first job)
Is there a way to have access automatically detect the year and month and
put jobs in successive order as new records are created.
I currently have the input mask set to "XXXX-"0000\-000;0;
Thanks for any help in advance.
