    Updating a subform from a combo box

    Hi duluter, I'm glad that it worked. In my opinion, ideally any form ought to be based on a query rather than on a table directly. There are several reasons for this, one of them being your scenario where you can use criteria in order to limit the number of records to be returned. If you try...

    How do i make people's pictures show in my Forms using Access 2003

    Hi and welcome to the Forums. If you use the search feature on this forums, there are several threads with excellent examples how to deal with images.

    Calculating time

    Hi dufc and welcome to the forum. As regards the calculate time, search this forum for "calculate time" as there are several examples how to deal with sum which exceeds the 24 hours.

    what are you reading?

    i'm currently reading "Strangers Among The Dead" by George Bellairs which i borrowed from the library. It's rather an old book as it was published in 1966.
