I'm dealing with large Access tables. So every time I close queries Access asks stupid questions if I want to put results in clipboard.
If I hit yes by mistake Access gets frozen and it takes forever to be able to do something with it or use clipboard for copying with other programs.
Sometimes...
Each branch deal with items only.
If they want to stock it - they mark it StockYes.
They might not know about PGSG at all.
Purchasing is using PGSG do determine how to buy different groups of items.
Regarding normalization.
Each branch have different set of products.
That happened because i picked only items that branches decided to stock.
Each branch desides that independantly.
But they take data from the same productfile.
Product file determins item and PGSG just once.
So to that...
you're right. Our system never been normalized. But we can't change that. We just download what is there and crunch numbers as good as we can.
Ok
WXP is a branch name (I picked 3 branches only WXP, WXQ and WXY
WX part is a division name
The system is partually normalizad within each division...
I got the concept!
I put
Like (IIf([Forms]![form1]![Branch]="~*","*",[Forms]![form1]![Branch]))
And it works when i put * in a form.
Thanks a lot, I guess i'll figure out how to treet those tables in a beginning.
I'll give you another example.
Let's say I have a form where I specify a branch I'm looking at.
So I have a query where critreia for the branch is like
[forms]![form1]![Branch]
Now
Let's say I want to see data for all branches not changing anything in queries.
I only want to enter...
