: Basically, its an events calendar that can have multiple dates assigned to
: an event. For each date for a particular event there can be Agendas and
: Minutes assigned to it. Because there are multiple dates for events, I
: have
: to grab the last dateID from the eventDates table so that I can increment
: it
: by 1 for each event date and write it to the committeeDocs table to create
: the relation between the two tables.

Warning, Warning, Warning!

Why don't you just use an autonumber field (assuming Access) and have the
DBMS take care of generating the IDs for you? You can use SELECT @@IDENTITY
to get newly generated IDs if required.
