tables do have a unique numbers but have discovered that there is a fault on VB. Eventually it has boiled down to building a new database which has caused no problems what so ever and works like a dream. Motto of the story, if it takes you 3 days to try and correct the problem, just build a...

the 2 tables are both text tables (really plain and boring) they are joined by a number (admin number) which links the data on the form, I have no formula's, sums etc infact this is a standard text book stuff (although I am more advanced than this) I take it the problem is essentially with the...

2 tables, join properties option 2.

It is bound to a query!!

Do the above, but in the format box change to Long Time this will display hours, minutes and seconds!

I have a form which has vertical labels on it, which have now become invisible. In properties the label is clearly shown but on the design and form view it is invisible. I have tried everything!! changing colour, alignment etc but to no avail. The label text does appear however if I change...

Mile Thanks a million, did the trick!! and it was so simple when I had a proper look at it. Matisse
