It's going to take some code. Depends on exactly what you want. Although it will not be exactly what you are looking for, you'll find a starting point at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/210194. If you Google for access custom autonumber, you'll find a ton of articles.

Good luck.

I use this also and it's easy. It takes a real autonum field (autonum1) and another field to create your calculated autonum. You place a control bound to the custom autonum field (autonum2). We'll call the field you want to grab the variable from variable1. If you are using a form, set the default value of the custom autonum to the autonum value plus your second field. Like: autonum2=autonum1 & variable1. Easy peasy lemon squeezy. If you aren't using a form, do it through an update query.
