Private Sub Accident_Date_AfterUpdate() Me.txtNewAccidentID = Right(txtAccidentDate, 4) & " - " & DMax(NewAccidentID, [20_tblAccidentmaster]) End Sub I am trying to build a new key for each record in a table. Right(txtAccidentDate, 4) gets the year. " & right(DMax(NewAccidentID, [20_tblAccidentmaster]),3)+1 gets the next sequential number. 1. The code is not firing. I am getting no error or value. 2.
