    Creating an exam timetable

    You're right not Charles, not even Darwin. It's Luke. This does sound far more complex than I am able to tackle with my existing access rights to SEEMIS, so I will stick with the manual movement to and then import from Excel. I had thought I was pretty good at this, but on looking back I...

    Creating an exam timetable

    Hi again, Firstly I can confirm that the query you created does indeed work as intended now that I have tested it in school on real life data. I'll need to reply one more time after this, then my post count will be high enough to view the links in your signature. :-D I do already import the...

    Creating an exam timetable

    Thank you Ridders. You have made it do exactly what I was trying to get it to do. You even read my mind and excluded the irrelevant arrangements, although I do actually need to put TBC back, as seeing that in the resulting report is the flag to chase up pupils/staff/parents who haven't provided...

    Automatically fill field based on keywords in another field.

    Thanks I think? :confused: How would I set up that table? And how would I relate it to the subjects? I already use lookup tables for subject, level and arrangement, would I need/be able to incorporate the faculty information into the subject lookup. I tried this previously, but got myself...

    Automatically fill field based on keywords in another field.

    I think this is a table question, if not please feel free to berate me and move it to the right place, I also think the question has been covered before, but any of the searches I try don't quite give a solution to my issue.
