The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Sequential numbering?

Asked by apcwzrd in Microsoft Access Database

I have created an Order Entry form to replace an antiquated form created years ago. The old form automatically created a Sales Order Number for a new order, but the Database is password protected so I cannot tell what procedure he used to create the new number. It seems this should be very simple to do, but I have not had any insights as to the easiest way to accomplish this. I am using Access 2000. I thought Autonumber would be the answer but it is already used for the OrderID field and Access does not permit more than 1 autonumbering field per table. There is probably a painfully easy solution to this problem but I am at a loss.
