    Query Results appear read-only

    Thanks for all your help VBA. I guess the final thought of the day is that I am never going to be able to have a row/record where ALL related information pertaining to the PC is present. So in my main form, I will have the user select a PC and then run code (PL/SQL) that populates each sub...

    Scolling Text

    Hey Crake A very good idea. The only thing is I have my dashboard mounted up on a 22" Monitor in our office. I needed to have both the ticketing info as well as any updates from our dashboard that pulls info from another table. So not sure if this will be large enough to display.
