Use InfoPath to Write to an Access DB or Excel and Generate a New Number per Record/ Row
I want to use an InfoPath form to write to one of multiple tables in access, or worksheets in Excel (I don't care which)
One sticking point is, I want the Infopath form to have something like a "Submit" button that writes to the Access or Excel files and creates a new record/ row with a unique number for each.
Of course we want significance in that number.... YY-XXXX, where YY is the two digit year the infomation was submitted, and 0001 would be the first submission. We would want XXXX to start over at 0001 the next year.
