Are you using bound forms? If you are, then there's no need to use DAO to save the data. Let Access do this instead.

Hi Experts,<br />
I need to save a record in an ACCESS 2013 to my tblJOb table on a button click event. &nbsp;When I save the record using a VBA sql query, I want it to return The JobID (auto generated key) that was given to the newly created record. &nbsp;How can I do this? &nbsp;These are my table fields:<br />
<br />
tblJob has the following fields:<br />
JobID &nbsp;(Primary key - auto generated)<br />
JobName<br />
COntactName<br />
ContactPhone<br />
ContactEmail<br />
<br />
thank you very much in advance,<br />

Microsoft Access is a rapid application development (RAD) relational database tool. Access can be used for both desktop and web-based applications, and uses VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) as its coding language.

Microsoft Access

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.

Visual Basic Classic

Databases are organized collections of data, most commonly accessed through management systems including schemas, tables, queries and processes that allow users to enter and manipulate the information or utilize it in other fashions, such as with web applications or for reporting purposes.
