Hello,
How can we create a single record with a unique number(primary key) which includes number of lines of records in listview control using Vb6 and MS-Access connectivity???
I have tried something like this...
It saves one record at a time but I wanna add records(multiple) to listview and then save all with single id.

VB

Private Sub BtnAdd3_Click()
    If .RecordCount > 0 Then
   .MoveFirst
    Do While Not .EOF
For i = 1 To ListView1.ListItems.Count

  SQL = "SELECT A.*,B.* FROM [ASSET] A,[NOTE] B " & _
      " WHERE A.AID=B.AID AND BITT='FALSE'"

For j = 1 To ListView1.ListItems(i).ListSubItems.Count
  SQL = SQL & "'" & ListView1.ListItems(i).ListSubItems(j).Text & "'"

   .Open SQL, CON, 1, 2
.AddNew
        !DOC_NO = Text1.Text                //contains pk of table
        !AID = Text3.Text
        !DOC_SUBNO = Text4.Text            //contains no. for each line(duplicates)
        !LOC_ID = Combo4.ItemData(Combo4.ListIndex)
        !SUP_ID = Combo5.ItemData(Combo5.ListIndex)
.Update
   .MoveNext
    Loop
    End If
End Sub

But it's not giving proper results... plz help....

Have a look at your code and imagine what you are trying to achieve.

SQL variable is global variable, am i right?
In this line:

VB

SQL = "SELECT A.*,B.* FROM [ASSET] A,[NOTE] B " & _
    " WHERE A.AID=B.AID AND BITT='FALSE'"

you set value for variable correctly, but depends on count of listview subitems and values, your SQL variable:

VB

SQL = SQL & "'" & ListView1.ListItems(i).ListSubItems(j).Text & "'"

will be looks like:

VB

'first loop
"SELECT A.*,B.* FROM [ASSET] A,[NOTE] B " & _
    " WHERE A.AID=B.AID AND BITT='FALSE''subitem1';"
'second loop
"SELECT A.*,B.* FROM [ASSET] A,[NOTE] B " & _
    " WHERE A.AID=B.AID AND BITT='FALSE''subitem1''subitem2';"
'and so on...
"SELECT A.*,B.* FROM [ASSET] A,[NOTE] B " & _
    " WHERE A.AID=B.AID AND BITT='FALSE''subitem1''subitem2'...'subitem99999';"

Use debugger!

Your query is wrong, because of 2 reasons:
1) Not using JOIN's
2) Is not updatable (probably)
Instead

VB

"SELECT A.*,B.* FROM [ASSET] A,[NOTE] B " & _
    " WHERE A.AID=B.AID AND BITT='FALSE'"

use

VB

"SELECT A.*, B.* FROM [ASSET] AS A LEFT JOIN [NOTE] AS B " _
    " ON A.AID=B.AID WHERE BITT='FALSE'"

More about JOINS you'll find here:
http://www.w3schools.com/sql/sql_join.asp[^]
Visual Representation of SQL Joins[^]

If you want to add new record to recordset, your query need to be updatable: AddNew method[^]

If BITT field is Bit data type, your query should looks like:

VB

"SELECT A.*, B.* FROM [ASSET] AS A LEFT JOIN [NOTE] AS B " _
    " ON A.AID=B.AID WHERE BITT=FALSE"

or

VB

"SELECT A.*, B.* FROM [ASSET] AS A LEFT JOIN [NOTE] AS B " _
    " ON A.AID=B.AID WHERE BITT=0"
