    Producing Metrics and charts

    Ummm, unfortunately ADODB and DAO are alien to me at present. Whilst I appreciate the code I will have to learn how to implement Access functions and pass variables to them. My experience with Access is less than 6 months. Definitely something for me to find out more about so thanks. For...

    Conceptualizing and Executing a Complicated Database

    Review the last years data by month
