Hello all When I create a record in an app I am making I record a combination Alpha/Numeric code (stored as Text) Something like ABC:123. The next booking would be recorded as ABC:124 then ABC:125 etc etc (The ABC bit is constant, because it's our Company initials) We also allow for block bookings (recurring bookings really) based on the details for ABC:123 to occur also. What I want to do is once the original booking details for ABC:123 has been made If someone wants to make a recurring booking based on ABC:123, I want all the recurring bookings to get the same Alphanumeric number (This bit I can do) but my real problem is I want to append stuff to the end of each AlphaNumeric in the group EG the first booking for a recurring booking based on ABC:123 booking will be ABC:123-1 the second ABC:123-2 the 3rd ABC:123-3 and so on and so on Any suggestions? Many thanks in advance Darren
