    User Interfaces

    Bit of a vague one this... I've got my forms up and running but they're looking as bit boring as far as I'm concerned... The people in my office tend to complain less about the functionality of the db if it looks pretty, which leaves me to get quietly on with building up the queries, reports...

    Getting Excel data into Access

    I have a table in Access(97) to which I have to import data from Excel(2002). I've tried saving as .csv(comma delimiters), and also as .txt(tab delimiters) then copy&pasting.

    Quick and Easy! Hey all! With the help of Mile-o-phile i managed to get my database normalised and it works a treat.
