    Amend a multiple field index

    I had need to add an additional field to an existing multiple field index with 2 fields. This index was not at the end of the index list so I wanted to insert a row. I could see no way to do this and it was faster to delete the existing index and then create it again with the 3 fields. This...

    I maintain Access systems for clients using different versions of Access. Prior to Access 2007, I had no problems running different versions of Access on the same PC. I'd always install the versions in successive order, and of course, in separate folders. With Access 2007, I found Access...
