Here's an update to the Serialize function by Peter Schroeder:
Good to hear. FWIW, here's the version I came up with today, based off of
your code and Ken's(Getz) suggestion, with a few changes:
Function Serialize(qryname As String, keyname As String, keyvalue) As Long
Dim rs As Recordset
On Error GoTo Err_Serialize
Set rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset(qryname, dbOpenDynaset, dbReadOnly)
rs.FindFirst Application.BuildCriteria(keyname, rs.Fields(keyname).Type,
keyvalue)
Serialize = Nz(rs.AbsolutePosition, -1) + 1
Err_Serialize:
rs.Close
Set rs = Nothing
End Function
