July 1, 200520 yr I need a field to Enter a # starting with 1...no big deal huh. So I have two feilds. Job_number and Change_number. Change_number is the feild that will need to change on creation of the record. It needs to look to see if there is a record or records with the same job # and add 1 from the higest Change_number of the same job #. If there is no other record with the same job # then it needs to be 1. Example =============== 1st record Job_number = 100 Change_notice = 1 2nd record Job_number = 200 Change_notice = 1 3rd record Job_number = 100 Change_notice = 2 4th record Job_number = 100 Change_notice = 3 Thanks Devin
July 1, 200520 yr Create a relationship based on JobNumber. I'll call it PreviousJob. Sort the relationship by Change_Notice, descending. Then change Change_Notice to be an auto-entered calculation (leave 'do no replace existing value' selected) of If( not IsEmpty(JobNumber); PreviousJob::Change_Notice + 1 )
July 1, 200520 yr Author Thats it....Thank you I had the relationship part done, but not the calc. Devin
