reyemmaus Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 I started my a new Table by importing an Excel spreadsheet with one column of ID numbers. In the submission form, how do I reveal the next available ID number for the user to enter? I tried dropdown, and it shows the last ID number, but there is no space to enter a new one rey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Jan Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 Hello Rey, During Import, you can set the Autonumber Data Type for the corresponding field. Then new items will be added with correct next ID. reyemmaus 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 MayMusic Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 Why not using autonumber field which will be creating sequential number itself? reyemmaus 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 reyemmaus Posted April 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 I will try this. Since this post, I may introduce a record id instead of importing a field of useless numbers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
