Copying a number to a table when adding new record
Hi,
Have next 2 - related - tables:
t1_AUTOID (autonumber, related to t2)
t1_base_number
t1_etc
and
t2_AUTOID
t1_autoid_rel (related one-many with t1)
t2_new_number
t2_etc
Now, when adding a new related record to t2, I want the latest t1_base_number to be copied to t2_new_number.
t1_base_number changes all the time, but when I've added a new t2-record, after that the t2_new_number shouldn't change anymore.
So just copy the latest version t1 number to the t2 field.
Prefable no SP... but in a view? VB-code in Access front-end is ok as well..

Dim strSQL as string
dim lngMaxID as Long
lngMaxID = DMax("t1_AutoID", "t1")
strSQL = "UPDATE T2 SET t2_new_number = " & Dlookup("t1_base_number", "t1", "T1_AUTOID = " & lngMaxID)
Currentdb.execute strSQL, dbFailOnError
