    trouble appending records to a table

    Marc, Something to try: change your validation rule to the following... ALike "1/1/%" Or ALike "7/1/%" ...and see if it tests OK (it worked for me in a quick mock-up in A2K). More info: http://www.eggheadcafe.com/conversation.aspx?messageid=31982891&threadid=31982891...

    What does ADP offer?

    I may be wrong but I don't think an ADP necessarily prevents a user from fiddling with the tables unless the developer locks down the front-end. http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/access/HP052731031033.aspx Access's security model, in my opinion, has always been complicated and clunky in...

    My query runs in DAO but not in ADO
