bump I tried to describe what i need to do more clearly in the post above

*Edit Shortened the explanation Thank you for responding. I haven't been clear. The database is a service report database. This is a small portion related to picking and storing comments for each service visit. You can ignore the "Comments" table. All you really have to look at is the form...

I have 2 tables, one has a list of comments indexed by numbers. The second table will be populated with numbers that correspond to the first table based on usage of the form that I'm about to describe. The form contains several check boxes. Each corresponds to a comment from the first table...

Here's some more detail about the algorithm. Table 1 contains and various MIN and a MAX values. Table 2 contains various DATA values. Table 3 contains a list of comments. The algorithm basically manipulates DATA and runs some comparisons on it with MIN and MAX and would return a numerical...

The database displays/prints service reports which include numerical data and comments about the quality of my customers water. Right now, the comments are input by the secretary based on a predefined list (she just enters the numerical values that correspond to a specific comment and the...

I have several pdf files I want to have on my website that should only be available to my customers. Is there a way to password protect them from being downloaded by just anyone?

I figured out my problems. No need to repsond to this thread anymore. :)

I wanted to report on what happens when I try to open it on another machine on the network. What happens first is that I get a macro warning about unsafe expressions. I proceed through that crap. It then opens a database in Access 2000 format (the original is 2003 format). However, none...

Trying to figure this out. I would have prefered the lamens hat. :o No. I'm not familiar with it. Our network was "setup" (IMO, it was abandoned) prior to my first day of work by some "professional". This part I have already done. I understand what your saying and why your saying it...

I created the database on my computer. I added security and split the database to put the tables on the the server. Everything works just fine on my computer. However, when I try to copy the 3 files for the front end of the database to other computers on the network, it won't work. Perhaps...

It compiles with no errors.

I setup my security (or lack there of, hehe) and split the database. I relinked the tables. Now, Access gets hung up when I try to create an MDE of the FE to distribute. It starts the process, asking me to select a folder and file name, I do that, and it gets no further in the process...

I think you misunderstood. My dilemma is that sometimes on my service reports, I need to add in a custom comment at the bottom that is different from my list of predefined comments. For example, predefined comments that show up on the bottom of a report are along the lines of "levels are...

I have a nice report that I have developed as I learned how to use access 2003. I'm finding that in the working environment of the project, I need to be able to add some custom comments in the form of text to the report just before I print it out. The report is based on a table. Is there a...

OK. Sounds good. I think I"m going to apply this to the company I work for. This way I can protect the data from the users, lol. I know it sounds funny to say that since they are the ones modifying it, but I don't want them to accidentally be able really mess things up like renaming fields...

when you guys talk about front end / back end stuff are you implying the front end includes the user interface while the back end is composed of the tables?

Thank you for the help. The database is now functioning well.

I'm also trying to port some functionality from my access database to PDA. I figured I'd try out HanDbase first. I wasn't impressed. Their website makes it look pretty nice and easy to use, however when I found out that it could not convert my table data properly I dropped it. The tables...

Wow that compress and repair is great! It should be attached to this post.

So I started up the debugger and tried to compile and it won't. As soon as I attempt the compile, I get the same error and it just points me to the Form Load procedure for one of the forms. Any chance of emailing you the database so you can look at it at your liesure?
