    Customize buttons

    hey there. the simple answer is no. many people develop work-arounds and variations like the one you described but, basically, no, there is no built-in way to do it. (not sure about A2007).

    Date stamp changes

    the key is the Before Update event. (i'd be happy to hear about alternatives to this though). you can update the timestamp when the form closes, but the user won't see the new date. i suppose you can put in the code into a text box as well, but that could result in problems/errors if changes...

    Query Problem

    hello. have a look at the Nulls (Nz) function. if you can post the query we could be more specific. the nulls function can return a value if one is "not available".

    Validation Rule Violation

    i think the first syntax is correct. not positive but it seems the problem is not the validation rule but the data. so yes, you have to enforce the rule at insert time by actually checking the data before attempting to insert it. as for seeing the sql, if it's an access query, you can see the...
