Record numbers do not exist in Access.
There is an AbsolutePosition property, but that is only applicable for the
current view of the dataset. Filtering, sorting, inserting, or deleting
records will change that number.

What is it you are wanting to do?

Define "record number".

Access does not, so you will have to.

Hi,

Thank you for the answer. I just want to know, which record we entered it
first. For example, I sort the record by date, but we have 10 records have
the same date, so I want to know which record I entered first on the day.

If, instead of EntryDate, you stored EntryDateTime, you could sort by that
field. Where is your EntryDate coming from?

It's not that there is no way to display it, it is that one does not exist
unless YOU put it in. But if you added a RecordNumber field, you could
display that.
