    Printed Serial Numbers

    I am trying to create an application in Access that I will be able to
    print bar code labels. A stumbling block that I have hit is the Serial
    Number on the bar code. I would like to be able to read the Serial
    number from a Customer table. This serial number just starts at 10000
    and goes up. This number is incremented everytime a label is printed
    and I am printing 2 copies of each label, each with the same serial.
    But during any one print job I can be printing anywhere from 2 to over
    100 labels. After the print job is done I would like to store the new
    serial number back to the table.

    I need to be able to print the number on the label along with this
    number with a leter front of it. ie Serial = 12345 and also A12345
    (Barcoded with Data Identifier).

    Would anybody have an easy way of doing this.

    Thank you for your help, it is greatly appreciated.

    Properly the most reliable method would be to generate the serial numbers in
    a temp table and use that as a source for the labels.
