I am trying to figure out how to print a sequential number on report pages. The number is printed as a barcode. I have been able to accomplish this by creating a table of numbers and creating a report tied to it. My problem is I need to make the printing available to more than one person and I need to not allow the same numbers to be duplicated.
The form is used as a cover sheet that is sent to a scanning company. We enter shell information into a database and scan the barcode sheet. That sheet then goes with a document to the scanner. The scanned barcode is used in the file name and the files are matched back to the input data.
The barcode sheet only contains a company header and the barcode in the middle of the page.
We will be processing about 2000 of these records per week.
I was trying to come up with a solution that would take a stored number and have the user type in the number of sheets they need to print and store the new ending number and then generate the report.
Any thoughts on how to accomplish this?
