    Clear out data

    The visit record can have a field for the ExpenseID. Honestly, I think you are wasting your time attempting to build an unmaintainable application. Healthy person ranges change over time. The latest and best disease information can be provided with a link to a web page like Mayo Clinic or...

    Filter with query

    Do you have any other context? You can use VBA behind a button to set the Filter property of a form. Does the other query return one record or more? Can we assume there is a field in the form's record source that relates to a field in the query?

    Using multiple criteria in IIF statement

    It may be time to get your feet wet in VBA. Create a new, blank module and paste this code into it (I think I got the logic correct): Public Function GetWanted(intDiscNo As Integer, _ varRecordingID As Variant, _ booIgnore As Boolean) As String 'Add comments here about field types...

    Clear out data

    I would record expenses in a single table with fields that store the person, category, date, quantity, cost, comments, and maybe a few other columns. There is no way I would create separate tables for each type of utility. Have you shared your ideas with any family members? There is no way I...

    Are you suggesting this post is related to Excel or did I miss something?

    Clear out data

    If you don't have certain tables, can you provide some clue as to what causes you to have hundreds and why they are growing. Do any of your tables have similar structures? Help us understand what you have created.

    Solved Getting old :-(

    I would use code like: Private Sub Detail_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer) Me.Last_Name.FontBold = Not IsNull(Me.DateOfDeath) End Sub

    Using multiple criteria in IIF statement

    I replied from my iPad and expected the OP to give it a try and come back with questions. Creating a function allows you to encapsulate the logic into a single object that can be used over and over within an application. If/when the logic changes, you have one place to look. Here is a...

    Using multiple criteria in IIF statement

    Create a small used-defined function that has the three fields as arguments. The function will provide comments and easily understood and updatable logic. Nested iif()s should be avoided.

    Solved Getting old :-(

    If you feel a pain in your chest (even if for just 5 seconds), don’t ignore it. The same is true for other symptoms.

    Solved Getting old :-(

    👈 As per my image, my heart stopped (sudden cardiac arrest) two years ago at age 69. I can verify, getting old is better than the alternative. I now have a valid reason for lapses in memory. I recommend a coronary calcium scan for people over 60 particularly if you experience any heart related...

    Multi Value Combobox

    Does MySQL support MVFs? I believe there is a recent thread in the Forms forum discussing this functionality.

    Date format mm/yyyy

    Have you tried creating an additional column with the field in the Format() function? DateMMYYYY: Format([DateField], "mm/yyyy")

    Sorry folks, Access World will not accept my posts

    I don’t know about others but I think this thread has run its course (and then some). This should have been posted in the Site Suggestions forum. This is similar to the great idea to create a new thread regarding MVFs.

    Sorry folks, Access World will not accept my posts

    If you haven't split out the data tables from the other objects, how do you intend to provide updates to your users? When you send them a new application, it will overwrite everything they have added in terms of records? Is your application read-only? On a side note, it seems like a waste of...

    I don’t believe @DakotaRidge has ever stated the full contents of what is contained in the post. Was there an attachment, image, link, script,…?

    Sorry folks, Access World will not accept my posts

    I was a Microsoft MVP for 15 years, consider many here as personal friends, and have been contributing to these types of forums for over 20 years and I had to patiently (not really) wait for my 100th post.
