Yes done a mail merge in Word - this side of things is OK. For each customer who I send a letter to I want to create a note to state that I've done this - this note will be the first of many notes if the customer takes the product being offered therefore I have put the notes in a separate table...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi folks, New marketing initiative in work and I'm trying to record it in access. I have two tables - one with customer details and one with notes linked by Customer ID. On a monthly basis I will be entering new...

Subforms is a good idea BUT the other day I sent over 60 intro letters - I don;t want to have to go through each record to input the details of the letter sent! I want to be able to run a query (or something automated) which inputs the note for this action - for most this will be the first note...

Thanks but I will be entering a number of entries with the same first two fields and only want to have to enter them once - looking at your suggestion I would need to enter these values for every entry - is there a way of doing this ie a box appearing which will set the default values????

Hi, New to Access so there may be a better way to do this but how I would do it is to - in the action section of the macro choose openReport and in the bottom of the screen Action Arguments chose View| Print. Repeat this for as many reports as you wish to open - each on a new action line. And...

Hi All, I am hoping to create form that will prompt the user to enter default values for certain fields ie Week No and WB Date before allowing any data to be input into the form. Any help on how to do this would be appreciated. Thanks, Mary
