    Is it possible to group controls?

    Hi, I have a pretty standard form to enter data about contracts. Depending on the type of contract, the user will answer a yes/no type question, and the result will determine what set of information needs to be entered next. Since the variables are grouped intrinsically, I would like to make...

    importing report template from word

    I have a form to be faxed to various individuals based on the records in an access database. Previously, this has been done using the merge fxn in Word, importing the data from a query.

    finding unique occurences of a record in a table

    I think I found a workable solution - (by reading some other posts, sorry about that! :o) I added 'distinct' after the word 'select' in the SQL view. It seems to have worked! Baquist

    finding unique occurences of a record in a table

    Hi, I have a table which has duplicate records. I can tell which are the duplicates by using the find duplicates query, but I need to be able to get a table with a unique occurence of each record. I can do this in SAS using the sorting procedure with the 'nodupkey'; how does one do this in...
