Hello,
I have a customer table and another table that I need to prepopulate
with special customer IDs, unique and not sequential. Is there a way to
configure Access to assign the customer ID to every record each time
that a record is either created for the first time or imported for the
first time? I would be importing into a temp table and then running an
update query to copy the data to the customer table. Another confusing
issue is that I will be updating the customer table through an update
query occasionally to just update existing customer data -- I don't want
that process to trigger issuing a new customer ID. Any thoughts?
Thanks.
