Thanks for that info.... crikey - it seems Microsoft has created a bit of a compatibility jungle here. I was planning to buy 2016 for my laptop, which I will use to show the draft database to people in the USA. But I was hesitant about 2016. I shall instead load 2007 onto it, and see if I can...

Cool, I spend about six months in Sydney in 1990 and then a couple of months in the hinterland behind Nerang in 1993. What version of Access are you working in, and do you require your clients to buy Office and Access, or do they use the runtime version? I am trying to figure out what version of...

Thanks.. it is only 14 hours...

That is excellent... great to hear about such a successful Access implementation that is developed and marketed at a distance... even if you have a local company. The new and much heavier legislation comes into force on April 10 ... I think it was... here in NZ. So that may already have given...

Thanks Paul, I worked in Wellington for about 10 years, then moved first to New Plymouth and Whakatane, where I am now. Getting more and more rural, and living at Ohope Beach. Next week I am flying to Houston to catch up with Julia, my girlfriend. We're also going to New York. Having lived in a...

From your image Relation2.jpg it's also clear you need a Breeder table. Unless every breeder only breeds one snake :)

In the Snake table, you probably want to have the basic background data. You can then add various EVENTS table that link back to the Snake table. You could have a Feed table for instance (as this being an event) Or your Events table could contain different classes of even (Feed, Weight, or...

Hi, I have joined to ask the experienced folks on this forum about your confidence levels in Access 2016. I have had a few versions of Access over the years and I now sit on 2007. My girlfriend works in a trade/industry that has no customized data product for it, and I have been playing around...

Hi all, In a past life I used to be a programmer (Assembler, Fortran, Pascal and a bit of Cobol) doing industrial automation and later office automation (sigh) as well as systems management in the DEC and VAX/VMS world. These days I use computers mainly for music, using Cubase and Native...
