What do you think: Access PowerUsers/Veterans In a customer/claims database, should user's be allowed to add unlimited "Notes" every time they access a record? The idea is to try to control the user's access to previously entered notes by locking the current notes field upon record exit. Then...

How's this?... EKTA: Create separate tables for the airports, the inspectors, and the varous tests. Set primary keys (1-to-Many) on each to maintain referential integrity; (i.e. [tblAirports] would have these two fields; [AirportID] and [AirportName] as the PK; follow the same for the other...

1,000 thanks!!! Mr. Hartman: thanks so much for this. I'm still new to all this VBA but I think I'm getting a little better. I enjoy writing routines and getting them to fire and this one is really going to help prevent a legal matter with respect to a database that I manage.
