Ok Thanks. On booting up the computer we dont have any user accounts the computer just boots to our main user account. Our Database once loaded contains all our customer information like invoices, and what the customer has ordered. We want our member of staff to be able to access our main...

Thanks guys. At the moment we only use a single log on for the computer so Im not sure Alans version would work but its something maybe we need to look at. @pr2-eugin Would you mind explaining to me how that all works and what to do with the working module that you posted. Although I have an...

A couple of years back with the help of people on here I set up a database for my Carpet shop that deals with everything from day to day running of the shop to keeping track of all the financial stuff. To cut a long story short we have just had to take on a member of staff and I want it so he...

Thanks. So you are saying that the 2010 version will still work with Windows 8 as long as Im not using any addins(which I dont think I am)? Ive now ordered the new computer and it is indeed shipping with Windows 8 so still in a bit of a panic that I may either not be able to use my DB on the...

I have been running Ms Access 2010 for my works finance and customer records on my works computer. The computer is on its way out and we are looking at getting a new one. It looks like its going to be one that is running Windows 8 and I have been searching the web with no luck to try and work...

Ah right thank you. So basically the code is saying any date that is more than x amount of days which in this instance is 7 days. So any date over 7 days old will show and I guess I can use the same code for the statements. I just couldnt get my head around how it could be coded. Thank you very...

Sorry like I say very basic user so Im not exactly sure what you are saying. Is that a forumla I would have to put in somewhere? At the moment I use [Fitting Date]+7 to calculate a field called Follow Up Call. I have a report that shows all the orders until i click that a follow up call has...

I wasnt sure if I am posting this in the right forum and I have tried using the search function but cant seem to find anything that helps a lot. I have a DB of customers that we have fitted carpets for and we do follow up calls after a week or so, I can use the fitting date to find out what...

Thats done it thanks very much. Didnt realize about renaming it there.

Thanks for that works perfectly on the one you did however, I still have a problem in that I tried to follow your instructions on mine just as a walk through to get it in my head how to do it properly and it still wont work properly. When I do the above I am now getting the #Name? error. Ive...

I wasnt sure the best way to upload it as it said the original file was too big so I made it to a Zip file but wasnt sure if that was the done thing. The Customer Order Form and the Order Items Subform are the ones that seem to be causing me the trouble. Thanks for taking a look.

Ive been messing and I can get this to work if I follow the instructions and put the text box in the Form footer but the same thing dosnt work in the Form detail box. Is it not possible to get that result in the detail box?

Thanks, that was one of the guides I tried to follow but with no luck. Im sure theres something really simple im missing.

Hi bit of an Access newbie here looking for a bit of help. For my carpet shop Ive made a pretty simple database that I have been using for the past year but Im now wanting to spruce it up a little and have been a regular lurker on this forum trying to pick up hints and tips. The problem I'm...
