Thanks for your reply.At the moment I am using 2 fields as you suggested, my concern was that the user would have to remember the last number used or look it up. I tried to create a second autonumber but got a message that Access only allows 1 autonumber for each table. I have got round the problem for now by using the ID autonumber for the receipt number. Maybe later it the course I will see a better way.
