I am working on a form where a user would enter data about a product
discrepancy from the sales field organization (cost, price, date of
discrepancy, comments, etc.) and I would like to append the data to a log
table that will have an autonumber field generate a unique confirmation
number. I would then want to give the user this confirmation number within
the form after they click a "submit" button. My question, is how to have it
return the confirmation number just created by the append? My first thought
was to link back from the form to the table on the key fields and pull the
confirmation number that was auto-created. Since I have not dealt much with
auto number fields in the past I wanted to see if there is some established
way of optimizing this type of task.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
