    general set-up & VBA: insert variables into a table

    The data are presented in several ways, the one that presents difficulties is the Continuous Form showing ALL records. That's the form most appropriate to view a summary of the record and decide if you want to add it or delete a selected record from the personal list. I now have it working but...

    general set-up & VBA: insert variables into a table

    Yes, that's exactly what I'd like to do but I don't find it that simple to do. I am looking for the exact opposite of the AddNew action used to create the record in junction table. The standard Delete button won't cut it.

    general set-up & VBA: insert variables into a table

    I can't delete the entire record. Remember there are multiple users, each of which should be able to individually see all records at all time. The selection option for each individual is just to make finding your particular interest more easy. If someone deletes an entire record it would be...

    general set-up & VBA: insert variables into a table

    I have a database which holds records of publications in journals, newspapers or other media. A minority of these publications are of interest to everyone in the company. Most are of interest to smaller audiences, i.e. groups of one or four individuals. I would be surprised if the total number...

    personalise record selections

    it's now almost good Cameron. I get a pop-up box asking me for txtrecordID so I guess it's simply a matter of playing with that a bit in either the VBA or the naming on the form. Unfortunately haven't had time for that today but will trying until it's either working or I give up and come back to...

    personalise record selections

    I am really struggling with what I expected would not be very difficult. I just don’t get it and need a bit of help/feedback to get me on the right track. We have stacks and stacks of research papers that need to be organised so that everyone in our team of about 10-12 people can search the...

    How can I combe fields in a query when 1 fields is empty?

    I'm combining 4 fields in a query but am running into trouble when 1 of the fields contains no data, which is sometimes correct. The result is that the field displaying the outcome of the combine query is empty, which is not what i wanted to achieve. Here's how I currently combine 3 fields...

    Qry on 2 tables using ~15 check boxes in each table

    Thanks for your reply Uncle Gizmo I think I'm actually doing what your suggesting, but then again, maybe not quite. I'll try to explain a bit more clearly. You say: OK, I hear you but I don't see how, nor am I convinced that you completely understand what I'm trying to achieve. I don't doubt...

    Hi all, We have documents on the server that employees frequently need to fill in, such as time sheets, expenses, training records etc. People often have a copy of these docs on their own PCs for their convenience (no more looking for the docs on the server). A problem occurs when docs are...
