ms-access-2003

I have not found any answer regarding my question, all unique constraint questions did not involve MS Access. The question is how to make a unique constraint on multpile fields in MS Access 2003 database? If my table consists of columns id, A, B, C, D, E, F . I have an index on column id , but I would like to have a unique constraint set on both columns A and B . Hence, I may have a duplicate value in column A , provided the value in column B are different. I want to stress that I am not interested in a workaround like creating new column with concatenated values from columns A and B , and

Is there a way to use my own number in a table like an auto-number; that is to automatically assign the next available to a new record. We have system ID numbers for each employee that I want to tie into this database. I just want the table to auto assign the next number. Can I do this? Could this be done with a mixture of numeric and alpha? Could criteria be used, like Code A = certain set of numbers, Code B = another? CaRDiaK Of course you can, but you will have to design this yourself. There are hundreds of ways of doing this but one way might be that you may have a parameters table with

So the function =Now() ....is there a way I can use this and only get the date, not the time? or is there just a function for this idea? There is a Date function . Dean Harding Dates in VBA are just floating point numbers, where the integer part represents the date and the fraction part represents the time. So in addition to using the Date function as tlayton says (to get the current date) you can also cast a date value to a integer to get the date-part from an arbitrary date: Int(myDateValue) . Nick DateValue(CStr(Now())) That's the best I've found. If you have the date as a string already

Using VB.NET with ASP.NET and and ms-access 2003 data, I'm trying to input data from a web form to the a table in db.mdb called 'USER'. I tried this code: Protected Sub btnCreateAccount_Click(sender As Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnCreateAccount.Click Dim conn As New OleDbConnection("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:\Users\Brian\Documents\Visual Studio 2010\WebSites\WebSite3\db.mdb;User Id=admin;Password=;") Dim cmd As OleDbCommand = New OleDbCommand("INSERT INTO USER (Name, Surname, Username, Country, TelNo, Password, Address) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)", conn) If

I have a MS Access 2003 database with a table called product1 with a Primary key named Product Code . There is no auto id column. I have used this sql to do the custom data paging. SELECT * FROM ( SELECT Top 1 -- = PageSize * FROM ( SELECT TOP 1 -- = StartPos + PageSize * FROM product1 ORDER BY product1.[Product Code] ) AS sub1 ORDER BY sub1.[Product Code] DESC ) AS clients ORDER BY [Product Code] Now my problem is Search. When I search for something on the database table and point it. How can I make sure still paging works fine? I'm querying Access from C# as well (with paging and searching),

Lets say I have two tables, one for transactions, and another table who's primary key is the foreign key in the first table, and this relationship simply associates locations to transactions. I have a form with a list box that shows all the potential locations, so that the user can open some dashboard forms that only pertain to a given location. So I know how to pass the data from the selection to the dashboard, however I would now like the user to have the capability to select multiple locations from the first list. so if I use a SQL statement the WHERE clause is like .... WHERE LocationID =
